Chapter 1340 - Halfway Towards The Cosmic Realm! IV

The first Dao to be forged this time around was a Dao Noah had to make as he had come across too many things with the concept of Runes!

Runic circles when he cleared dungeons in the past, Runic Dao Lines from deconstructed daos, Runic sigils, Runic Symbols for the Daos he forged…too many things had runes at their base as he sought to understand this more and also have it be used as a recipe for an Edict that would help him forge a System!

The Cosmic Dao of Runes granted many unique boosts and uses as one of the main ones as allowing Noah to brand 20 Runes onto his body and soul permanently, and he didn't know exactly how powerful these Runes would be as it would simply be like tacking on boosts of different types.

He peered into something like the Rune of Mana and Loot for better understanding.

[Rune of Mana] :: Radiant blue in color and unique in design, this rune can be branded onto one's soul as they experience a permanent effect of their mana reserves being multiplied by 100 times. The quality of one's mana is also continuously raised and refined over time until it achieves the purest quality of mana that makes the cost of all abilities as little as possible.

[Rune of Loot] :: Gold in color with exquisite etchings, this rune can be branded onto one's soul as they experience the permanent status effects of +100% Increased Loot Quantity and +10% Increased Loot Rarity.

"Hmm…"

Noah looked at the results while nodding lightly, something like the Rune of Mana that would have little use to him being something indispensable to others. Just imagine an expert like Halcyon or Aegon suddenly having their Mana Reserves times by 100…it was a simple concept of runes with a shocking result that would make others green with envy!

The Rune of Loot was even more unique as it was something even he wanted to brand onto himself, and he did just that as he called out lightly.

"Rune of Loot."

THRUM!

His surroundings vibrated with power as a unique essence rolled out, coming to coagulate before his eyes as it began forming into pristine etchings that he would have simply understood as the word LOOT before!

But now, it wasn't just the mere cluster of symbols to form this word as with his eyes bathed with the Dao of Runes, he could see this symbol before his eyes containing wisps of a unique power that could influence Reality…and yet it wasn't the essence of Reality.

He felt like he was touching upon a grand path as his essence of fortune and destiny seethed excitedly, knowing he had taken the right path towards his goals! And how could he not take the right path? He had confirmed with <Path to Victory> after all!

SHAA!

The Rune of Loot rushed towards and sunk into him as it went on to circle his Origin and soul, binding onto one of his centermost Splendiferous Universe that began to shine gold- Noah feeling the addition of +100% Increased Loot Quantity and +10% Increased Loot Rarity on top of what he already had.

"Beautiful…"

Noah admired his new design as within his Origin, he only now noticed that his forged Universes had already passed 50 Billion!

—

Within the very same Primordial Cosmos of the Infinite Empire.

There were many unique locations that could be found among the currently 100 Cosmos of this Empire, with many of them being clustered in the Primordial Cosmos where Noah's original Universe stemmed from!

There was the newly built Cosmic Holy Land in the Novus Universe along with the countless Law and Dao Spaces, and within the Dark Universe itself where Noah stemmed from, another feature that many knew as the Library could be found here!

It was the location that all new entrants in the Infinite Empire had to pay homage to when they arrived as they further boosted their power, and there was currently a concession of women flying across space towards the physical location of this Library that floated in stellar space.

It was a vast structure lined by greek styled pillars and walls with a golden fog surrounding its sides, much of it looking like the archaic grand libraries as between the golden pillars, a vast number of bookcases with labels of [Offensive], [Defensive], or [Universal Rank Skills], [Universal Filament Skills]...many sections with multiple subsections could be seen as they stretched out as far as the eye could see!

There were millions of beings lined up neatly near the entrance of the vast Library waiting their turn to go in and select skills to learn, these existences ranging from those in the Void Realm to those in the rank of Paragons or Antiquities!

But the procession of women floating forward caused all of these existences in the surroundings to part way for them respectfully, their gorgeous group landing on the golden steps of the library as they bypassed everyone waiting. And of course others parted ways from them…since they knew this group of women to be those closest to the Emperor of this fantastical cluster of Cosmos!

"Why do I sense fear and awe from the eyes of these little guys around you all?" Springforge raised her eyes as she gazed in the surroundings while directing her question towards the woman leading them- Adelaide.

But it wasn't her who replied as the shorter Barbatos dressed in a frilly black dress raised her eyes disdainfully, the illusory golden crown above her head symbolizing her title as one of the current 100 Kings as she spoke while her curvaceous body glimmered brightly.

"Of course, they have reason to look in awe. But it's not towards our identity…it's just an extension of being around Little Fish!"

Her words caused Elena, who was adorned in a red dress by the side to raise her eyes while Athena laughed lightly, her lips pursing as she released the words 'Junior Brother…' that only she could hear.

"Little Fish?" Halcyon was following behind Springforge as she asked quizzically, an illusory crown also on her head like all the women in the surrounding entourage as her golden hair and eyes made her stand out even more with her beauty.

At the forefront, Adelaide stepped into the vast Library as she turned back and motioned for them to hurry, her blue eyes bright as replied.

"Just the name that Sis Barbatos met Noah with in the past…come, let's get you guys acquainted with all the skills and skill trees that can boost your power by multiple times first before you get to know about all the stories, otherwise we'll be here all day!"

Her words held a hint of dignity and power within them as they moved everyone along, even Valentina and Anna who seemed to be talking amongst each other in hushed tones behind everyone!

Valentina was adorned in a short purple dress that hugged her curves as while she dripped of regality, she sent mental waves of communication towards Anna. "Let's see…I bet 10 Primordial Hearts that he has at least been with one of them."

…!

Anna raised her strong eyes as she shook her head at seeing this powerful Daolord engage in such words, but she was thoughtful as she replied back slowly.

"I'll take the bet, he probably hasn't touched any of them yet."

"Yet? So you know it is only a matter of time?" Valentina's mental waves contained a hint of mischief as one could hear her amusement from within, causing Anna to merely shake her head as she replied in a defeated manner.

"It's a matter of time for any powerful woman that comes near him…" Words of wisdom that one could agree with and disagree with came out as the two women continued conversing amongst each other privately while walking through the golden pillars holding countless skills.

At this time, Barbatos let out a harrumph as she jumped forward to a certain direction in the Library while voicing out.

"Then they might as well start with the Blood Lord Skill Tree to gain access to a bunch of clones first, we'll then go through all the passive skills…"

In a fantastical Library lined by golden pillars and a cloudy golden fog that held a hint of mysteriousness, a group of powerful women stepped in as Halcyon and Springforge were introduced to many things they had no idea about.

Noah was in a world of his own as while those closest to him mingled with each other, his eyes were currently set on his Origin as he saw the shining sight of over 50 Billion Cosmos that was still increasing- albeit at a slower pace, but it was still more than 50 Billion either way!

With 18 of them being rainbow colored Splendiferous Universes that caused almost half of his body to seem multicolored, the rest were normal Universes that were yet to be turned to their most profound state…but it was still a fantastic achievement.

In this Reality, Noah could effectively say he was among the three beings that had ever achieved a level of power at this stage, and he would soon catch up with the other as all he needed was more time and opportunities!
