Chapter 593 - What Lies Behind the Golden Barrier? I
Space was extremely huge and vast.
This was even more so when one looked at an entire galaxy that housed an uncountable number of planets and creatures, and it was even vaster if one took into account the unknown that lied outside of a galaxy!
Yet there existed a few specific beings that could effectively achieve a high enough level as they actually changed how vast things seemed to their perception, rising to such extreme lengths of power that even the vast distances of a Galaxy did not seem as vast as they were before.
This was the case with Noah after he achieved the level of a Grand Controller, the type of movements he could do within the Novus Galaxy expanding greatly to the point that he could not even compare it to his past self!
An example was how he and Aldrich had gone from the Central Realm and into the Letalis Expanse, and then just a few minutes later reached the bounds of the Novus Galaxy as the events that had already occurred took place.
With his position as a Controller, the vast Light, Dark, and Letalis Expanses could actually be explored by him in time as he would at most have to spend a few months or even a year or two to fully explore the entirety of the Novus Galaxy and everything that was lying within!
But at this moment...he had an enormous task ahead of him as he heard a shockingly powerful voice that had teleported away a Terror of Aether without its will, an entity that the Cthulhu had accused of bringing calamity to itself and all of them by allowing the actions of Aldrich to go through unstopped!
"You still know nothing about this?"
He sent his words towards his own Realm System, which was the integrated Infinite Realm that had all the worlds he was connected to put together as he sought for even a bit more guidance to try and understand what was about to happen.
[No. I am experiencing this at the same time as you.]
His System replied curtly, Noah analyzing the distinct differences between the voices in his mind as he affirmed they were different, that the commanding voice that had simply teleported Cthulhu away was much colder and emotionless, one feeling a distinct chill from it!
He glanced at the surroundings where the boundary of the Novus Galaxy had reformed, preparing himself fully as he used enormous amounts of mana to teleport directly to a single location.
Of course, his location was the wondrous Central Realm that he had left not too long ago, returning close to the golden barrier where he had left behind the Nebula Rank Infernal Lords.
The land around the Golden Barrier was already getting back to normal as the destruction his [Madness Hegemony] caused was slowly wiped away by the abundant essence of the Central Realm, the vegetation already regrowing. Noah saw the figure of the three Infernal Lord standing straight in front of the Barrier as the 1st Infernal Lord looked towards him with a smile.
"I trust it went smoothly?"
Her words were as melodious as always, Noah staring towards this woman as he nodded while speaking.
"Not necessarily. There's something about a bell being rung and all that."
His eyes were squinting as he tried to figure out the mysteries around him, wanting to see the full connection this 1st Infernal Lord had with the commanding voice that had called him a Champion, wanting to know the things that had been held in the dark for too long!
"I am in the same situation as you and many others, but I have received guidance that all the answers lie on the other side."
The 1st Infernal Lord bowed apologetically as she spoke, her hands pointing behind her as Noah saw a blinding golden light shining out, a blinding rectangular opening being created on the fearsome golden barrier that Aldrich had wanted to get behind for so long!
RUMBLE!
The golden barrier that he was completely kept out of was now opened towards Noah even though he could have just chosen to pass through it with his power as a Grand Controller.
[Communication will be much smoother the further in you are. Come.]
Noah turned his head in pain as he still felt a searing tinge every time the cold voice entered his mind, looking towards the three Infernal Lord that seemed to be waiting for him before they entered the golden rectangular opening that showed something entirely different than what Noah and many others were expecting.
He left behind his reservations as he floated down and walked through the opening, feeling like a film of light was peeling in front of his eyes the moment he passed through the golden barrier that Aldrich had wanted to get behind for long!
He began spreading his awareness out as the auras of the three Infernal Lord entered with him, his eyes opening wider at everything he was discovering as the contents within this barrier were really outside the expectations of many!
Aldrich and many other powerful Celestials had made passing this golden barrier their goal over centuries, imagining all the wondrous treasures they would be able to find in the hidden region as they used it to reach even greater heights of power.
Yet over all the years, they had never been able to achieve it as Noah was currently the only one to explore this mystery with his own eyes!
"This is what Aldrich spent his life trying to reach? This was the reason for all the chaos over the past hundreds of years…?"
Noah could not help but voice out as the Infernal Lord beside him let out a light laugh, an indistinguishable light shining in her eyes as she nodded.
"We often have wild delusions of grandeur on things we cannot get our hands on. What Aldrich sought...he would have never found here."
Noah shook his head with emotion at these words as he thought about the being that had lived over 2000 years while having the singular goal of passing through this golden barrier and putting his hands on all that lied within!
He shook his head as he confirmed with his own eyes that it was better he took away Aldrich's life with his hands, for if he had actually been able to pierce through the barrier and see what lies behind it...he might have just taken his own life right then and there!
