Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chronos remained alone in the Ruination Sea as the terrifying essence within corroded his Origin.

It was eerily silent as after the sudden Devouring of all other remaining Hegemonies in just a second, the figures of three Blue Slimes and a single galaxy colored Cthulhu surrounded Chronos's body!

4 planetary sized existences looking at a 2 meter tall human, it was an extremely stark contrast!

Yes Chronos's face had turned placid as even with his end seemingly nearing, he actually locked his gaze on the figures of the Blue Slimes and especially Noah's face.

The past Apex Paragon.

The current Hegemony of Tyranny and Ruination!

"I have never met you before in my past life times."

RUMBLE!

He spoke amidst his destruction calmly, the madness of losing everything gone instantly as the mind of this ancient being shifted very quickly!

"Don't you find that weird? That across the countless lifetimes I've lived through, not once had you appeared, and yet here you are right now."

"..."

"What exactly are you? Where did you come from?"

Noah listened to the words of the Ancient being silently as the Blue Slimes were already making a move.

Glorious blue clocks erupted from each of them as they revolved in a circular manner around them, locking all of their figures in resplendent waves of the essence of Chronos at this moment.

The Hegemony of Chronos himself seemingly let go at this moment as a smile of peace came unto his face, his voice continuing to ring out.

"When I wake up in another lifetime, do you think you'll still be there this time around?"

WAA!

It was a smile of confidence and strength he released, where he quickly overcame the maddened anger of being so close to Antiquity and having it be taken away!

If he had almost been successful once, he could always try again.

From his body, as the essence of Ruination sunk in and ravaged everything, the essence of Reincarnation began to erupt out and wrap around him as this being would actually rather just press the reset button.

A button to start over as he began yet another timeline!

Would he rest the whole Primordial Cosmos as everything was returned to an uncountable number of years in the past? Would he leave this timeline and start over in a different one? The intricacies of Reincarnation and Chronos were too hard to wrap one's mind around as the answers were abstruse to even find.

Chronos wanted to press the reset button....but he would not be allowed to do so!

"My Master is not done with you yet."

RUMBLE 

The voice of the Blue Slime echoed out as the three blue clocks surrounded them circled majestically before they coalesced around Chronos, revolving around him madly as billions of chains with dense essence of Chronos and the authority of an Apocryphal Antiquity stretched out to bind him.

To bind not just his limbs, but his Origin and even consciousness as this being was put in a….

"Temporal Prison."

…!

A prison of time.

The existence that had comprehended the Cosmic Dao of Chronos watched in genuine shock and stupor in the next second as under the authority of an Apocryphal Antiquity, his very Origin and Soul were being frozen as before he knew it...his thoughts entirely stopped!

"...!"

"There will be no Reincarnation this time around."

RUMBLE!

Noah's voice echoed out calmly as he waved his hands, the figure of Chronos frozen in time disappearing as he turned his direction towards the pulsating cocoon a few hundred miles away from them.

One could already see a phantom of the other Universal Construct in the Abyssal Universe, these two almost merging together as mere minutes remained before the descent of Antiquity!

"Let's finish it."

His voice didn't even finish stretching out before one of the Blue Slimes appeared over the Universal Construct, swallowing it in a single gulp as a moment later, an explosive force rang out.

BOOM!

The second to last Universal Construct was destroyed as the Universal Amalgamation was disrupted yet again, with this time having only a single Universal Construct remaining!

The Liberated Universe was made free as far from them in the Abyssal Universe, the Oathkeeper's eyes shone a brilliant gold as he received word from the Wings of Primordial Destiny on what had just occurred!

The Apex Paragon had reached Hegemony as the power his Universal Emperor Slime released seemed to surpass it, successfully defeating Chronos and destroying the Universal Construct in the Liberated Universe.

"With this….it is possible!"

WAA!

He spoke out with vigor as his Sword of Primordial Essence swung down, smashing into a mountain of Extinction that stemmed from the Goliath as these beings also turned towards the direction of the Liberated Universe!

Oathkeeper took this chance as he attacked even faster, his voice echoing out into their ears.

"Even Chronos has failed! Give way and stop these absurd plans of yours!"

BOOM!

An explosion of Primordial Essence occurred with every swing, Oathkeeper attacking madly as he could sense shocking reverberation from the only remaining Universal Construct.

He attacked with more and more fervor, but he could sense his mana draining more and more even with the inefficient transfer of mana he was getting from other Hegemonies at this moment!

As he felt this problem of mana, the words of the past Apex Paragon that had just turned Hegemony repeated in his mind.

If he just pledged Fealty...he would have all the mana he needed to face the enemies before him!

Did he really have to do this?

While such thoughts passed through his mind, his brilliant white Sword rushed down with even more haste.

The Universal Construct before them had begun to vibrate and pulse dangerously, giving the Oathkeeeper a bad feeling as Primordial Essence lit up from his body, his bellow coming out and covering everything!

"OOOOOH!"

The Sword of Primordial Essence shone gloriously as it tried to weave Oathkeeper through space, but the Goliath spread Extinction all around and stopped his advancement!

When everything seemed too late and over and done with though...vibrant spatial fluctuations erupted out as the battling Hegemonies saw the appearance of a certain Blue Slime and galaxy colored Cthulhu. 

…!

Their eyes were flashing with magisterial might as without even a word, the Apocryphal Antiquity was the first to move with speed far surpassing Hegemonies, its body intent on Devouring the last Universal Construct!

Noah watched this scene as everything seemed to be playing in slow motion, his own heart utterly calm as he observed everything.

The shocked figures of the Goliath and the Hegemonies around him. 

The valiant figure of the Oathkeeper shining with the glorious luster of white light!

Then there was the Blue Slime that had nearly reached the pulsating Universal Construct that looked like a cocoon about to break.

Like something beautifully terrifying would come out of it in the next moment!

"..."

The tides of fate and destiny roiled as the Universal fortunes of many beings coalesced, everything coming together at this moment as the pulsing Construct...became entirely black and dim in the next moment.

Right before the Blue Slime could reach it!

After it became entirely black and dim, it blazed out with Crimson light a moment later as this light opposed everything coming towards it, even the Blue Slime!

Along with this light came a sigh.

WAA!

A sigh of immensity and terror, a sigh of an ancient being that stemmed from within the Universal Construct!
