2240 The 6th Boundary Layer! II

He didn't even gaze in their direction when he spoke.

And yet his voice was akin to a booming drum in their hearts!

The moment his words finished, Hideyoshi's Legions underwent a great change as fantastically, the Essence they were gathering up to attack could not be mustered anymore.

The common Ancestral Descendants under Hideyoshi gaze down to see in horror that not just this, but their very limbs and bodies...were beginning to turn to ash.

Ash!

Seemingly before the True Emperor of Quintessence even made a move!

But he had.

Before Hideyoshi and his Legion had even arrived, Noah had made a move as his Will that was connected to the Source of Reality was able to gaze at these beings as he activated Passive Loot Absorption from afar!

They were being drained of their very existence and turned into Loot over the last few seconds as in shock, Hideyoshi turned all around him to see all his people incredulously turn into nothing but ash.

It caused him to touch his own body in shock as he affirmed such a thing hadn't happened to him, but he wasn't able to breathe a sigh of relief for too long as the grandeur of the True Emperor of Quintessence emanated out!

HUUM!

A pressure originating from the soul emanated out as Haki surged.

The Emperor's Haki that was a collection of Noah's very own Aeonic Soul Damage Values!

After so many transformations and boons of his Soul, merely releasing his pressure alone in the form of Haki had far exceeded the stage of a few hundred Aeonic Damage Values.

With his Soul alone, the mere release of his Will could now erupt out with over 4,000 Aeonic Soul Damage Values!

This was why he didn't even bother to gaze at the True Emperor of Fate who could not even read between the lines of Fate at this moment.

Because when his Haki descended and caused the very fabric of Reality to tremble, only Theseus and Desiderius blazed with authority as their Boundaries erupted out, while Hideyoshi...

BZZT

Felt as if the pressure of the whole Plane had descended unto him as his upper and lower jaws instantly crushed into each other, his teeth instantly fracturing from the soul pressure as without any defenses to stand against it, his very Aspects of Existence were crushed under the weight as the visage of this True Emperor...exploded into a river of blood an instant later that flowed towards a certain direction!

...!

The Glory of the True Emperor of Quintessence shone with valor as without even gazing at a True Emperor, he was able to kill one with the pressure of his Soul alone!

It was a terrifying development as surprisingly, the blaring authority of the VOID surging around Desiderius and the white gold light of the Sword surrounding Theseus had protected them entirely.

At the same time, the tension and caution in their shoulders reduced somewhat as to them, they were able to ascertain the level of threat their enemy could pose.

They were both infinitely close to the 6th Boundary Layer as a majority of their Damage and Defense Values were geared towards the Soul!

Feeling the potent but stable release of 4,000 Aeonic Soul Damage Values from the True Emperor of Quintessence, their reservations towards the unknown reduced somewhat as this was manageable to them.

In fact, they could reach much higher as at this moment, the both of them decided to make their moves as since they were all surging towards the 6th Boundary Layer, the first one to do so would be determined to be the victor!

"Even if you are somewhat of an anomaly, I have put anomalies to rest before. I will study these 9 bodies of yours releasing auras of the Minor Planes and learn exactly how you were able to achieve your feats, O True Emperor of Quintessence. "

The ancient voice of Desiderius echoed out along with a terrifie move filled with Aeonic Soul Damage Values.

<Planar Void of Gehenna>.

HUUM!

Countless singularities bloomed around this being as the auras of multiple Boundaries could be felt within it, a miniature plane full of darkness and misery erupting and formingin a stellar fashion!

And at the same time...

<Planar Pantheon of the Halcyon Sword>.

Theseus erupted out.

Their Aeonic Souls were pulled upon as neither of them probed any further, releasing some of their strongest moves as they sought to erase the possible danger to their lives right away!

They felt somewhat safer after Noah released 4,000 Aeonic Soul Damage Values. What they didn't know...was that this was currently Noah's lowest damage value as he was only now heading towards the Sixth Boundary Layer.

His Damage Values were only now beginning to transform towards Soul Damage.

The Aeonic Damage Values not geared towards the soul that his Aeonic Quintessential Kainos Extremity Foundation could release paired with the All Aeonic Parameter Value augmentations from the Boundaries of Loot and Blood...had already crossed the 10,000 Barrier, and was barely settling upwards of 18,000 after his recent and thorough elevation of power!

He...had not even shown them his final form!

And even now, he had directed the remaining essence of the True Authority of Quintessence he attained as the prize for this Age towards none other than his highest Boundary.

He had viewed countless paths and chose this particular one as the hardship of going ever higher towards EXTREMITY only became more intense.

All the residual authority in his Throne was burnt up as Noah even had to pull from the True Authority of this Era that he was saving to elevate another Boundary.

His calculations were off as only after a third of this Authority was used up did he manage to bring the Boundary of Loot from its <True> Third Layer and into the Fourth Layer- and the distinction <True> was made because this was before the effects of the First Boundary of QUINTESSENCE that increased all his other Boundaries by an additional layer!

So Noah had truthfully only expanded the Boundary of Loot to the Fourth Boundary Layer, but because of the Boundary of Quintessence, it meant he had achieved the Fifth Boundary Layer.

He...was now close to cusp that showed a point of transformation for Boundary Expansion existences.

And when he got here, he knew that he would not have sufficient Boundary Modulators or Authority that would ever be enough to push towards the 6th Boundary Layer!

He saw the only path to do so with relative ease and quickness to be...the utilization of his Boundary of Quintessence to label the Boundary of Loot Quintessential.

To give it a second additional layer.

And so...he did just that as his Soul that had just completed waves of transformations cried out in joy, his existence going towards a pristine level while he faced two enemies who were infinitely close to reaching it too!
