Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Amidst the scene of desolate and shattered Universal and Galactic boundaries, two sides were clashing as they consisted of Daolords and Antiquities, but everything had come to a halt at this moment!

This was because on this Cosmic Battlefield, the single Daolord on the side of the Indigo Cosmos was currently withstanding the strikes of both of the Daolords from the Anthracite Cosmos of the House of Stormdust.

Withstanding them with ease as his expression was akin to an adult looking at children, as if an Emperor was gazing at lowly peasants!

The expressions of Ilyad and Daolord Ray were somber as they felt like their fists were clasped on an unmovable mountain- on something that could stand strong for eons before any of them could even stand a chance of destroying it.

But they were Daolords from the House of Stormdust.

Pride and honor were ingrained in their very Origins, their minds having lived through millions of years of trials and tribulations.

The being before their eyes...would merely be another obstacle that they had to overcome!

"OOOOOH!"

They both bellowed out gloriously as half of their bodies glimmered brightly with Runic Dao Tattoos, their strength being enhanced by countless times from the unique boosts of their deconstructed and reconstructed Daos as mixed within their cries, the regal essence of Ruination and Primordial Essence rushed out!

Even though they were withstanding what seemed like an unmovable mountain, these beings knew that they should not for even a second pull back.

Pulling back and retreating against such a force meant they had lost! 

So their stopped fists advanced forward as they were backed with the essence of the assimilated Primordial and Ruination Daos, their bellows shaking through the apocalyptic boundaries of destroyed Galaxies and Universes as they shot all they had towards Daolord Osmont.

RUMBLE!

Forces strong enough to overwhelm Universes raged as in response to all this, Noah's eyes only flashed with a wondrous golden light.

His body felt the coming and raging strength of the two Daolords before him as when he put into account the boosts of his Nomological Edict of Samsara and the myriad of Daos he had recently reconstructed into Runic Dao Lines...he could effectively feel that he had more than enough strength within his body to overpower both of them!

He felt as if the beings before him were…

"Not enough."

BZZZT!

The surroundings between the three of them trembled and shattered.

All of the force that the two Daolords were throwing towards him raged in the surroundings as it was only able to travel across Noah's arms and upper body, the light black tight-fitting shirt he wore becoming ripped off as only his obsidian pants remained, his bare chest and back being made bare for all to see as it drew in gasps from all those watching!

"That's…"

Out in the open, everyone could see exquisite Runic Dao Lines with an enticingly crimson hue fully covering every portion of his chest and back, his ridiculously sculpted abs and back muscles showing fantastical tattoos that screamed of ancientness and Antiquity!

They seemed different from everyone else's Dao Lines as they shone with an even greater luster, but how could they not be different when they were enhanced by the Light of Conquest and granted double the effectiveness of all others?!

A single Reconstructed Cosmic Dao from him granted 10 mill percent in boosts- that was the boosts of twenty Lesser Daos for anybody else.

And in the past days...he had deconstructed three Cosmic Daos and turned them into these ancient-looking Dao Lines!

How could he not shine brighter? How could he not exceed them in the regality and beauty they released?! 

In the middle of the Cosmic Battlefield, his chest was laid bare as all eyes were on him and how even at this point, he hadn't moved a single inch.

His eyes released gorgeous beams of light as he spoke out once more, his voice and actions being perceived as a battlecry as thereafter, the Antiquities behind him would begin to move.

"You all...are too weak!"

THRUM!

The moment his words finished, his two hands that were holding onto the fists of Daolords swung down!

His Runic Dao Lines that stretched gloriously on his hands and upper body lit up magisterially as they carried with them a terrifying force that Daolord Ilyad and Ray could not deny, this force traveling down as a shocking sound of muscles, bones, and ligaments being ruptured erupted out!

RIIP!

Crimson blood flew out amidst the Shattered boundaries of Galaxies and Universes!

…!

Those watching from the expansive coliseum like seats found their eyes constricting heavily, the figure of daolord Azazel and Rosanna from the House of Springforge standing up along with most of the Antiquities and Daolords that were lucky enough to actually attend this 'minor' Writ of Challenge.

In the Seats that were meant for the House of Stormdust, the hidden figure of Forefather Julius also stood up as his eyes flashed coldly, a myriad of unknown thoughts crossing his mind as he looked at the scene of the blood of Daolords from his house being spilled with such utter ease.

"Unbelievable…"

The air around the Cosmic Battlefield turned somber as time seemed to resume, the figure of a lone Daolord Osmont holding the ruptured limbs of two powerful Daolords from the House of Stormdust etching itself onto everyone's minds!

"OOOOOH!"

At this same time, a battle cry rang out from the ranks of Antiquities behind the Daolord Osmont, as if his actions had caused their hearts to become aflame with battle intent!

RAA! RAA!

Waves of power stretched out as the figures of Antiquities began to move, their bodies lighting up with light in forms of clusters as dozens of them seemingly used the same abilities- and it was simply just them utilizing their Archetypes to the fullest.

But the air of the Cosmic Battlefield had turned somber as all those watching now understood one thing.

Everyone here had come before to watch a show of forces from the House of Stormdust defeating a showy new Daolord that had to be taught the rules of the Primordial Empire, but they instead found they were in for a fantastical show of one of the lands of one of the three powerful factions of the Primordial Empire…possibly falling into the hands of a small and newly appearing being!

From the overwhelming power currently displayed by the Daolord Osmont as he faced Ilyad and Daolord Ray...there lay a very real possibility that the House of Stormdust could lose a Cosmos.

This....was a shocking event whose effects had yet to be fully known at this moment!
