  "Ahh…!"

  Noah kept his hand on this being as he mocked in the same manner of pained unwillingness that this assassin had shown when he brought him into this [Cloud World], and he then began to release tendrils of Aether onto this body as the shocked look never left the assassin's face since he had just died too easily and shockingly!

  The [Eyes of Truth] had told Noah exactly what the [Cloud World] around him was, and even where its master was hidden as everything thereafter was history! He simply teleported behind him as an Aether Ray released to shatter the being's origin, and he now lay dead .

  "I wanted to return to Nebula Rank soon too, didn't think someone would deliver themselves to me on a platter . "

  Noah spoke calmly in the [Cloud World] that was in stasis even after its Master died, this spatial area being something that would dissolve within 5 minutes after being cast, but this time was extended even further as Noah had destabilized the space and actually began supplying essence to keep the [Cloud World] active longer!

  He watched calmly as the assassin died, a red light passing over the dead body as he also read the memories of the being and then watched vibrant Nebula Rank cores appearing in front of him as this Blessed only left these cores behind . Noah smiled as he grabbed these cores and began absorbing them, the Realm of this body that had been in the Star Forging Realm beginning to shoot up as the essence within these cores dissolved rapidly .

  The Law Origins that he had already begun to recreate since the past daw also churned and spun as Noah filled his Origin to the brim before soon exploding it again into a Nebula, the essence of the universal laws repeating the same thing they did as in the Novus Galaxy as Noah regained much of his power in this new Galaxy at this time!

  Chapter 638

  In the soon to be dissolved [Cloud World], Noah, or more aptly Alexander- was forging a Nebula within his origin as the essence of universal laws went on to help him do it!

  The cores of the Nebula Rank assassin that delivered himself to him continued to be consumed as fuel, more and more stars being formed within the Nebula . The experts at this rank were particularly numerous, as the requirement to proceed into the next realm was particularly high, and it actually varied among different beings .

  It was a known truth that after one had cultivated more than 1000 stars within their Nebula, they could make a breakthrough into the Realm of Black Hole if they were talented enough! The talk of talent was mentioned because some beings achieved more than 1000 stars and still remained in the Nebula Rank for all their lives, death claiming them after a few thousand years .

  When it came to those that forcefully tried to form their Black Hole with insufficient stars forged, the creation of such a force would actually devour them from inside out as their very lives were snuffed from existence .

  To be successful with forming a genuine Black Hole within your Origin, it was said that the more stars one forged, the better . The upper limit of a thousand is what many beings aimed for, but very few were ever able to do this and achieve the realm of Black Hole!

  Noah was making it his goal for both his bodies in the two Galaxies to amass and forge more stars within his Nebulae, testing exactly what upper limit of stars he himself could reach before he could seamlessly rank up to the Realm of Black Hole . As he did this, something unique was happening far away in the Novus Galaxy…

  ---

  As the first being to be given a Trait had appeared in the Novus Galaxy, others could now appear as well!

  Across the vast stars in the Novus Galaxy, those lucky enough would be able to awaken a Trait if fate had it, the rank of such a Trait completely random as for the first time in a while, the entity that was the Novus Galaxy let things run their course without using the Ruination Core to interfere or bend Universal Laws .

  This was more of a cautionary move after having understood a little of the identity of this Ruination Tool because of Noah's Trait, the danger of this item they still did not fully understand presenting itself to them in a clear fashion as they proceeded carefully!

  The essence of the Galaxy had thus been randomly been granting Traits to those lucky enough, but the Novus Galaxy could of course choose to focus a significant portion of its essence in certain areas as it affected the rates of Traits being born there with a lot more frequency .

  This is where we come into the Infinite Realm, where the essence of the Galaxy was chosen to be gathered in this wondrous Realm and multiple Blessed had been awakened with every passing day!

  Those worthy of note as of right now were two key figures, one of them being much more boastful about it than the other as Noah was looking at the Traits of two beings among his people that awakened, and they were fairly high ranked Traits at that .

  [Emperor Penguin](Trait) :: Gigantomachia(DELTA)- The user of this Trait is capable of expanding their form into a gargantuan size as their Strength, Focus, Vitality, and all cast abilities are strengthened by more than ten times . An essence focused on the essence of indestructibility begins to form around the user the more that the Trait is employed .

  RAA! RAA! RAA!

  The Emperor Penguin was bellowing out loudly in a region of the Infinite Realm as he toward more than 100 meters in size, being larger than even most Behemoths as his trait did not just grant him this massive size . The strengthening of all of his attribute values and skills by more than 10 effectively multiplied his strength by that much as this Infinite Realm Beast was going wild while sparring with others to show off his newly awakened power .

  "Haha, come! Come!"

  ZOOM!

  The figure of the arrogant penguin shot around the sparring area where the Draconic Fire Behemoth, Kazuhiko, Kraken, and many others were knocked back at the fearsome power he showed, the pride of this penguin having just shot up to another level with the advent of his Trait .

  But he wasn't the only one worthy of note with a powerful Trait, as the Inquisitor herself, Athena, had also gained a DELTA ranked Trait!

  [Athena Cross](Trait) :: Extinction Flames(DELTA)- The user of this Trait is capable of shooting out extremely scorching flames that have the corrosion attribute, capable of reducing those that cannot defend themselves into nothingness .

  "Yaa!"

  The Inquisitor let out a fierce yell as she stood to stop the barrage of the rampaging Emperor penguin, her hundreds of thousands of Fate Lines shimmering around her body as she flipped her palm forward, dark purple flames blazing out!

  WAA!

  The Emperor Penguin felt an immense threat from these [Extinction Flames] as his flipper smashed forward with dense spatial essence, shockingly finding it eaten up rapidly as he was pushed back and smashed towards the ground .

  BOOM!

  A crater formed as the beak of the arrogant Emperor Penguin looked up with blazing eyes, his [Sin of Pride] activating as his body shone with a golden luster, marking Athena as his only enemy as he erupted out again!

  Athena herself breathed out while feeling the power of her Trait, actually lessening the factor of corrosion as she did not want to seriously hurt her sparring partners .

  But these dark purple flames blazed around her as she adopted a shocking image of a conflagration of flames, going forward to meet the 100 meter golden shining Penguin as shocks reverberated through the immediate surroundings!

  Noah was in the skies of the Infinite Realm observing this with a smile, knowing that powerful monsters of their own stature were slowly rising in the Novus Galaxy, which would make the coming months and years extremely interesting as he got himself acclimated to the Nexus Galaxy and learned of the larger Dark Universe .

  As he looked at his people sparring and continuing to ascend in strength, he wondered who would become Blessed next, and for what shocking Traits they would receive as their strength ceaselessly rose ever so higher!

  Would someone like that terrifying Imperial Princess with an EPSILON ranked Trait ever arise from his Galaxy?

  These thoughts and more swi
rled in Noah's mind as his attention was taken back to Alexander, his other version that had finished ascending to the Nebula Rank as a [Cloud World] dissipated around him .

  Chapter 639

  In the Imperial Citadel, the figure of Alexander reappeared just as seamlessly as it had disappeared from the gold-lined streets, the powerful Blessed geared for assassination disappearing entirely along with his [Cloud World] .

  He had a bright smile on his face as he sensed his vibrant power at the Nebula Realm, continuing to move towards the restaurant in front of him as if nothing had happened, wanting to spend the rest of his time before the start of the next stage enjoying the delicacies of this new Galaxy!

  The body of Alexander had minimal currency, but the assassin that had thrown himself at him held an abundance of this Realm's currency on him as Noah splurged all this wealth on vibrant dishes that held enough essence to cause them to release an aroma and brilliance that would make the mouths of any being water .

  Was it due to [Blind Luck] or something else that the assassin had so perfectly landed on his lap to grant me the cores he needed to quickly jump to the Nebula Realm and even the resources for him to enjoy limitless delicacies? He did not know or care, but he simply enjoyed himself!

  ---

  The hours passed as many went about their day, those successfully passing the first stage of the Selection celebrating the entire day and night before they began to walk back into the Imperial Thunderdome on the next day .

  Young Master Andrews had spent his day even more lavishly as he came back with eyes that seemed somewhat sunken, where one would know he must have spent a great amount of time in his nightly activities as even his spirit looked spent!

  The Young Master seemed to be venting his frustrations because of the prior day's events, and the fact that he could only stare at afar from the being he truly admired and sought to be in the company of .

  He had a forlorn look as he glanced at the party of the Imperial Princess and her two maids, but his eyes nearly bulged out when he caught on that not too far away, the figure of the trash Blessed that should be dead the night prior was right there!

  'What the fuck?!'

  His mind fuming, the Young Master had begun to send numerous transmission messages to question why a simple assassination mission had not been completed as his second-rate villainy continued, and Master Zeke came out at this time .

  "Alright, everyone is here . "

  OOM

  His voice took the attention of everyone in this section of the Imperial Thunderdome as he continued .

  "The last stage of the Trial will require us to step into a Teleportation Portal towards a region outside of the Imperial Citadel of our glorious Brightgold Monarchy Realm . . . we shall be heading towards the Devouring Hells Rift . "

  …!!!

  Alarm rose in the eyes of many as they heard this, a twinkle passing in the eyes of Noah and a few others as they heard of this name .

  "Pass through this portal as we head there!"

  Master Zeke pointed towards a pre-prepared portal as the figures of Blessed entered into it, Noah also following along as after passing through it, they found themselves in the middle of an expansive mountain!

  Abundant greenery and essence were around them as his eyes turned towards the opposite direction, being able to observe the boundaries of the enormous Imperial Citadel far off in the distance .

  The single portal teleportation had taken the 200 odd group all the way out of the Imperial Citadel, bringing them to another location in the Brightgold Monarchy Realm as each of them followed the flying Master Zeke from the mountain as he went towards a certain direction .

  "We have a single rift in this Realm that leads into the Devouring Hells Realm, a realm located in an unknown spatial area somewhere in our Galaxy . This is the Realm where we keep vile prisoners as well as . . . beings from other Galaxies!"

  …!

  Even the eyes of those knowledgeable were pensive as they heard this, the group flying with Master Zeke as they approached an enormous red Rift floating in the skies that was heavily protected by multiple Nebula Rank beings and a single expert at the realm of Black Hole .

  "Before being granted the titles of High Imperials and the benefits that come with it, your task will be to bring back the heads of five Prisoners as you learn exactly what power you will be coming across if ever you get to venture out of this Galaxy . "

  OOOM!

  Waves of essence freely permeated as the Blessed faced this enormous red Rift, seeing another set of Spatial Talismans appearing in front of them as they worked the same as the ones before, where this time they could crush them to be teleported out the moment they brought back the heads of 5 prisoners!

  "The strongest of beings in the Devouring Hells are at the Nebula Realm, where any enemies higher than that have to be directly killed since they can easily break out of any devices tethering them to a Realm . The most dangerous ones that you will come across are Fiends, sneaky and terrible beings with immense physical prowess that can bring death to you in a second . "

  They received warnings from Master Zeke as the Prisoners in the Devouring Hells Realm were beings that were tethered and could not leave the Realm, but they were freely spread out across it as it was a Realm filled with chaos and terror!

  Such was their last stage of the Blessed Imperial Selection, such was the place they had to find and defeat 5 Prisoners in order to join the ranks of High Imperials!

  "Enter!"

  WAA!

  Essence erupted out as the over 200 Blessed rushed off with power, valiantly flying towards the red Rift as they committed themselves and their lives to completing this trial successfully .

  Noah did the same as his aura felt the cold look that he was receiving from Young Master Andrews behind him, a light smile on his face as he ignored this arrogant young master for the time being and looked forward to seeing this prison of a realm, as well as the creatures from other Galaxies that Imperials locked in this place .

  The party of the Imperial Princess and her maids was the last to enter as Master Zeke looked towards them with a smiling expression while shaking his head, the last stage of the Blessed Imperial Selection being underway!

  Chapter 640

  The tens of Blessed appeared in the skies of a brand new space, entering the Devouring Hells Realm through the rift near the Imperial Citadel as they looked at the new space around them .

  Everything was colored by an orange hue as the stench of the dead permeated throughout, making many beings scrunch their faces as they each shot into separate directions .

  Others still worked in parties for the matter of safety, while some moved alone as they sought to defeat 5 prisoners before too much time passed in this Realm .

  This was because with every passing second, their lives were in more danger as the prisoners tethered but still moving freely within would notice them!

  When Noah appeared in the new Realm, he read all the information he could with [Eyes of Truth] as he also began moving out, curious about the beings outside this Galaxy called Fiends .

  The skies held a tint of the orange hue, but the earth below him was scorched red as it reminded him of the Infernal Realm, the wide expanse of barren and lifeless mountains making for a desolate scene as he freely spread his aura out without any worries .

  He did not have to search for long as in just a few minutes, he sensed a fiery aura moving below him as he saw a Blessed wreathed in a brown-green earthen glow facing a humanoid being with hooves for legs, enormous sickled arms hanging on each side, and tout bat wings behind their back as their entries bodies were the vibrant color of red .

  ROAR!

  This monstrous creature released a sound blast as it attacked, the Blessed's green light being shattered the moment the fist of this being landed as it could not handle the pure physical strength .

  The Blessed panicked at this show of power as he hastily pulled out his spatial talisman, activating it as
he disappeared in a shower of light!

  The monstrous creature, or more aptly called a Fiend, then turned towards the other nearest aura as its eyes locked towards Noah in the skies, its tout wings flapping as it shot towards him like a bullet train .

  BOOM!

  As this creature barreled towards him, Noah marveled at the numerous information popping up in front his eyes as he learned of the beings called Fiends .

  [Rak Ragaz] :: A Fiend from the Burning Domain Galaxy . [Life History] [Strengths] [Weakness] [Ability(s)] [Trait(s)][Habits] . . .

  He read over the details of this being rapidly as he found out that even while being at the Nebula Rank, it was not proficient in any laws as it relied solely on pure strength!

  SHAA!

  He moved aside as he evaded a scorching fist that would have shattered the defenses of a normal Nebula rank being . This was one of the unique features of Fiends- they were beings that had stupendous ranks and pure power at the expense of not being proficient in laws .

  But they made up for this huge disadvantage with their rapid progress in ranks, where even this single Fiend in front of Noah had already forged hundreds of stars, and his pure strength and defenses alone could easily match a normal Controller .

  But as with everything . . . they had their weaknesses! And Noah knew exactly where the weakness of this bulky defensive being lay as the moment he evaded the fist he shot out multiple Aether rays that aimed toward the back of this being where his wings erupted out .

  ROAR!

  It released a painful bellow at the unexpected attack, swiping its fist behind him as Noah had already teleported in front of it, making sure there was nobody nearby watching a golden light shined out, [Sword of Judgment] being cast as the other way to very easily defeat something which had high defensive and offensive power . . . was to simply wound its soul!
