2318 Reverend! III



Waves of RUIN and NULLITY cascaded all around him as his eyes were filled with an overabundance of clarity.

His True Sanguine Clone had an even brighter luster of blue at this moment as Manadynamics surged powerfully around him, Quintessence propping it up and many more sources within Noah with utmost radiance!

Amidst all this chaos and battle, Noah calmly read everything before him as he spoke to Ophelia.

<It's messy and chaotic here while the Abyssal Sanctimonious Lands hold unknown secrets. There will be even more Aeonic Abyssal Sanctity Leviathans within as we can also make our way in…>

Most of the Reverends of the three different Lineages had forged forward as they're just part of the forces of some of the Civilizations booming within the Aeonic Haven of Dissolution, with the much greater level of importance now being placed in this location as events unfolded. This meant that even more Reverends and powerhouses of Lineages would be sent here as those who forged ahead and gained more would have a much easier time going forward!

Ophelia nodded at Noah's words as she continued to gaze at the ever flowing words of Wisdom, finding new traces of information that were never there before.

<The deeper we delve into these lands, the more dangerous it becomes. At some point, Wisdom says that locations that only Apex Aeonic Lifeforms can survive in may appear…>

Terrific words emanated from her as when Noah heard them, his smile only became brighter.

<Good.>

WAA!

Conquest and tyranny were roused within his heart as since he was becoming an utterly sharp blade at rapid speeds, he needed even more unimaginable opponents to keep this same speed!

Below his feet, the authorities of many newly expanded Boundaries surged as he carried a dense concentration of power while he began to float forward.

Ophelia floated behind her serenely as they looked like a pair of celestial organisms on a stroll, not a single being standing in their way at this moment as they began to edge deeper into the Abyssal Sanctimonious Lands!

Across the Aeonic Haven of Dissolution.

In a location where roiling tendrils of RUIN the size of Realities swirled like endless snakes, a unique Minor Plane floated undaunted.

While tendrils of RUIN that would decimate Reverends as if they're mere meat on a chopping block churned, this Minor Plane of Existence ignored it all as it floated serenely, a unique power coursing over its boundary as it shone of stellar radiance and wonder!

And near the edge of this Plane, a sea of NULLITY that broke into a waterfall could be seen near its planar boundary, with two particularly dreadful auras actually being atop this sea as one sat on the edge of the sea of Nullity that transformed into a waterfall, while the other was at the very center of this silver sea as thick chains rose from it and wrapped tightly around his whole body.

Dark strands of hair shimmering with wonder cascaded past his shoulders as his eyes…they held mere sockets that shone like endless singularities as be stared out into the distance.

His skin shone with a fair radiance of wonder and power as it seemed indestructible even with the attacks of hundreds of Boundaries at the 9th Boundary Layer, everything about him emanating grace and power even though he was chained!

The being sitting at the edge of the waterfall of nullity had a curious expression on his face as he occasionally reached outside the barrier around this minor plane, his hands smoothly wrapping around the thick coiling tendrils of RUIN the size of Realities as he pulled them in as if he were fishing and….threw them towards his mouth as he devoured them whole.

This seemed to be his routine as if he had done this countless times, the massive Crimson rings around his limbs and head transparent and barely visible as his obsidian skin seemed to devour all forms of light as it put black holes to shame!

Everything seemed to be flowing as it normally should when all of a sudden, the chained existence with empty sockets emanated out a will that showed an aged voice full of tiredness.

<We were wrong.>

WAA!

His released will caused the sea of Nullity around him to seethe as the chains surging with Nullity and traces of crimson Ruin around him danced with a cacophony of noise!

<Hmm?>

The Noblesse Lifeform before the chained existence turned his head back with a smile, licking his lips as he finished yet another thick tendril of RUIN.

<O Genesis, what were we wrong about?>

His words seemed to carry genuine curiosity as if he were talking to a friend, and the one he referred to as Genesis stared out towards the expanse of tendrils of RUIN that released heavy waves of EXTREMITY as he continued with a sense of melancholy!

<Why do we continue to conflict and seek for more? When we arrived in the Havens of Extremity, we saw a vast world before us as we sought its power. We then gained more than enough power as we became Lifeforms that could traverse the Cracks of Extremity and even step foot into the other Aeonic Havens…only to find even grander lands and even more powerful beings. It's just…>

His head shook as he spoke, the tiredness and melancholy ever present in his words as he continued!

<Those in the Firmaments of Ascendancy perish. Those expanding Boundaries towards Extremity perish. Even beings like you and me who have attained a stage to be called Apex Aeonic Lifeforms perish. Just…look at me. Chained here for the past billion years as what about me screams Apex? What about me screams a higher life form?>

A great deal of despondency emanated out as his words actually caused the smile on the Noblesse Apex Aeonic Lifeform to fade, a somber expression coming down as even this being turned around to stare into the expanse of crimson tendrils before them!

He did not deny what Genesis said- nay, he could not deny it as this being's feelings were actually not too far off!
