Chapter 325 - A Mission, Crixus Returns!
Chapter 325 - A Mission, Crixus Returns!
Noah affirmed the spectacular changes of the many beings around the snowy landscape of the Spiritual Land, every single one of them having gained something unique to them as their bodies pulsed with power.
Similar to how his bloodline came with memories about the innate skills of Vampyres, they would also receive memories about their innate abilities, albeit they would be of much lesser quality than the Absolute and Void Ranked Skills that Noah received from the Vampyre Progenitor Bloodline.
"I’ll be stepping into the den of the Celestials soon, where things can go a multitude of ways depending on what fate has in store."
He spoke to the upgraded Harbingers in a serious tone as they gradually adapted to their new bodies. They looked towards him with complicated looks as they each carried the same set of emotions. To them, it felt like Noah would always pierce into the front lines and brave the most dangerous fights while they just enjoyed themselves and received rewards that he had worked hard to obtain later.
They felt stifled, and hated feeling like things just continued to be handed to them without them doing anything for it! They also wanted to do their part! They also wanted to go on dangerous missions where they could bring back unexpected and glorious loot to share with others!
The Emperor Penguin could not hold it in any longer as he voiced out.
"Master, what can we do? What other worlds can we conquer?!"
They knew they were weak, and that training in an area like this First Realm of Hell was something that would greatly boost their strength over time, but they also wanted to contribute!
Noah held a wide smile as he looked at the imploring gazes that wanted to do more than train day and night. A few thoughts crossed his mind as he thought of a certain peak Prime World he just left. A world filled with supernatural monsters all the way up to the Soul Forging Realm. A world with Pureblood Vampyres, Werewolves, Cyclops, and numerous more ridiculous creatures.
"There is a world filled with monstrous creatures that scale up to the Soul Rank. Many of you are still at the Transcendent Rank with only a few at the Saint Rank, so this world would be dangerous but filled with opportunities for you all to advance."
Numerous red lights shone as they heard dangers of beings up to the Soul Rank, though smarter ones like Barbatos were looking at Noah with an apprehensive expression that seemed to say- ’Won’t we just die if we jump into that world?!’
Noah laughed as he squashed any fears down with his next set of words that also smacked them into shock once again.
"You guys should be fine, there is a Soul Rank Royal Vampyre under my command who will take the lead and look after you all."
The Harbingers looked at him as they shook their heads depreciating, Noah himself using [Telepathy] as he sent a message to Elena that held shocking contents.
Besides the current mission of covertly observing and doc.u.menting all the movements of the Celestials in the areas where the Pureblood Vampyres had their eyes into, yet another task had been laid on her lap. That task...was the expansion of the forces of the Pureblood Vampyres in the Underworld!
The Royal Vampyre who had begun looking at stacks of paper and using her essence to read over an abundant amount of information in shining floating crystals accompanied by the Vampyre King received this message as her body shook, a radiant light coursing through her eyes as a smile appeared on her lips.
Her Progenitor had tasked her with a mission, and she would be receiving beings he held close to him for her to take care of and raise their strength while this mission was underway. Her long legs stood up straight as her shimmering silver hair danced wildly, boldly speaking out towards the Vampyre King looking up at her like she had a few nuts loose.
"A mission has just been passed down. Our forces are to start the process of expanding our power over the Underworld soon. Send me the divisions that aren’t spread out across worlds as we prepare legions for battle here!"
Elena’s strong voice filled with enthusiasm that wanted to please a being it respected greatly rang out, her little brother looking at her and shaking his head as he simply did not even know what was going on anymore.
"Won’t this draw attention to us?"
"Every Prime World knows how the Pureblood Vampyres keep to themselves even though their power is greater than many of the forces in the Underworld. This will simply be seen as the rise of our force that had been lying in wait all this time, even going forward to remove any suspicions about us. Move little brother, we mustn’t delay."
"..."
Tides of change had begun once more, this time on a Prime World populated with beings at the Void and Soul Rank as Noah made plans to let newly upgraded Harbingers loose on the Underworld!
Even though he sent a message to Elena and told the Harbingers to still adhere to a set of principles not to hurt the innocent during this expansion, Noah inadvertently did not notice that his past mentality would have gone through many round about ways to justify his actions or find a specific group that could be considered evil for his forces to target. He could have simply put the Underworld’s forces under the banner of the Celestials in the Light Expanse and used that as a justification!
But his significantly changed body and mind that was being constantly affected by the awakening Blood Progenitor Bloodline did not even go through this roundabout way of thinking! He simply knew he and his forces needed to quickly increase their strength, and the conditions of the Underworld were perfect for it. Even though his forces would target those they considered to be evil or causing harm, Noah had still inadvertently begun a battle for conquest on a Prime World that was relatively balanced with only a few clashes over the years.
Thus...chaos was slowly beginning to propagate in some of the higher powers in the Light Expanse ever so slowly.
This chaos would only continue as Noah’s body that was now completely changed to the form of Crixus reappeared in the Cultivation Abode of the Profound Astral Sect he had left days ago.
His form this time was changed through the use of [Unique Origin], where his physical aspects and his own origin all portrayed that he was Crixus, the core disciple of the Profound Astral Sect, and that was all he was!
Nobody would be able to look past this ability stemming from the Absolute Skill of the Vampyre Progenitor as his aura had now fully settled with everything being contained.
The eyes of ’Crixus’ opened as he came out of what was supposed to be his last cultivation session to stabilize his Saint Realm before he set off, sending a message to his father as he relayed a singular sentence- I am ready!
