Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chapter 287 - The Icebound World

Noah glanced at the abilities of the <<Astral Connector>> once again as a light smile couldn’t help but appear on his face, taking just a few moments to enjoy this feeling of achievement. He always felt like he was constantly moving and planning without relaxing as much as he used to do, not realizing that he had unconsciously been feeling a sense of pressure as he somehow found himself a new task or enemy the moment he finished with one or even before.

His thoughts went back to his life these past few months as he counted a few times which he could say he was just relaxing, but these times seemed to be getting fewer and fewer as he mixed himself with the surrounding powers of this Light Expanse region he found himself in.

In the Cultivation Abode on a peak of the Profound Astral Sect of the World of Cultivation, Noah stood up as he breathed deeply and tried to pull himself out of his reflections.

His thoughts still lingered on the fact that the worlds, the stars, were numerous and vast. The small blue planet he came in was from a small corner in this region called the Light Expanse where the influence of Celestials was extremely heavy.

There was still the region called the Dark Expanse that he continued to be curious about, with his curiosity peaking even more so when he thought of the region called the Letalis Expanse where Ancient Races resided.

He wanted to freely explore and adventure in these unknown regions as he discovered new places and individuals, but his plate was full of plans and to do’s at this moment in time that he didn’t even know when a time like that would come.

He let out a deep breath once again as he regained his bearings and stopped his inner thoughts, his body fading away as he teleported from the Cultivation Abode that no one will be bothering with for a few weeks. Just in case, he used his unique skill, {Primal Conjurer}, to reassign one of the primal spirits that should have been serving as a dungeon boss in one of the three worlds he was connected to and placed it in the Abode. The Primal Spirit would be able to alert him of any changes and he would quickly come back if needed.

In the ever so freezing landscapes of the Icebound World, celebrations continued after the defeat of the terrible Ice Giants. The moment they saw their leader wiped out by three blazing suns and the fearsome aura that a particularly prideful penguin released, the remaining forces of the Ice Giants surrendered as the battle was brought to a close.

Celebration erupted from the surrounding Humans and beings of the Frost Race as this years-long conflict was brought to an end, and in such a short period of time as well.

The Ruler of the Frost Race later proclaimed the powerful beings that came to their aid as Guardians, a weird dynamic coming into place where even though he was the ruler of one of the two remaining dominant forces of the Icebound World, he felt like the tides had completely changed and these Guardians that came to their aid would have plans that even he was unaware of at this time.

But the Ruler of the Frost Race was wise and did not worry about this much, because he believed if these beings truly wished harm to the people of the Icebound World, they would have long ago done it with the fearsome power they portrayed. So the Ruler threw all reservations out of the window as he fully threw in his support with the extremely prideful Emperor Penguin and the forces that he came with.

At this moment in time, in a region of heavy snow of the Icebound World, Noah’s extremely well built figure appeared. He was dressed in light King’s clothes that he received as a gift from the Frozen Queen of the Beast World, changing his attire completely the moment he left the World of Cultivation.

His amazing figure was discernible in the snowy winds that caused his light clothes to ruffle, the freezing air not bothering him one bit as he took a freeing breath of the new world that wasn’t under any threats nor have any strong powerhouses he had to hide from.

A smile appeared on his lips as he replayed the communications that the Emperor Penguin had sent to him these past few days. He was glad that everyone was enjoying themselves as they trained, wishing he had more of this luxury himself as he made up his mind to enjoy the little time he had in the next few weeks before he threw himself in the lion’s den.

His gaze turned towards the the mountain beneath him as his body glowed the milky white aura of a being in the Saint Realm, and he shot towards the mountain at breakneck speed as he finally freely used the [Child of Space] ability under the [Lesser Cthulhu] skill tree.

He had gained many spectacular sets of skills in the Infernal Realm, but had never been able to fully enjoy them as was always under watch or the instances just did not permit it. He still hadn’t gotten to employ the terrifying form of the [Lesser Cthulhu] that he could take under the [Morph] ability, and this was another thing on his bucket list as he continued to check more and more things off.

The next one he was checking off was yet another connection to a Large World!

A change was made to the sub skill [Portals of Terror], with the maximum number brought to 18 to match the scaling to be the same as other abilities.

Portals of Terror(Active)(5/5):: Portals leading to the most destabilized and destructive regions of the universe are summoned as they release their catastrophic energies at their summoned location. Maximum number of portals: 18
