Within the enacted domains of the Noblesse.
Around the Styx Regality Plane.
<Lock down the surroundings! A thief has broken into the Spirit Hall!>
The booming voice of a Reverend Emperor bellowed out with utmost rage as a VOID spread out madly in the surroundings, the Wills of many Noblesse scouring all space within and nearby the Styx Regality Plane as the Obsidian rivers of stellar light surrounding it made the darkness all the more oppressive!
Finding a hidden Reverend in such a situation was going to be extremely difficult.
'But finding me? It will be impossible for you all.'
Moving across the crevices of space, a vibrant thought rang in the mind of Oppenheimer as he relied on his new vibrant eyes of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform to remain hidden from the scrutiny of the two Reverend Emperors left to defend the Styx Regality Plane and the Spirit Hall within it.
It made getting his portion of Aeonic Soul back unimaginably easy as the only thing was that its removal triggered the mechanisms of the Spirit Hall!
But Oppenheimer had already stepped out of the Styx Regality Plane as crossing the crevices of space, he knew he had all but escaped as he was already thinking of his next moves.
The remnants of the Barren Lands. The possible passage into other Havens…
Many possibilities swirled in his mind when all of a sudden…
DING!
His destiny released a sound of danger as if an attack was descending unto him at his very moment!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis expression changed as he prepared to defend, and it turned even more sour in the next instant as the 'attack' arrived!
From his hidden position in space…a blinding verdant gold light shot from him like a beacon of light that made his presence known to all.
It wasn't an attack. It was a marking! And one that was born from…
'Karma? A Karma of Death? Who the hell-'
BOOM!
<Surround him!> Before his thoughts could continue any further, the Wills of the Noblesse Reverend Emperors locked onto him and surged over as his slow escape plan was shredded to pieces, his eyes shining brightly as they released shocking radiance to fold space and have him leave this region even faster!
He moved in a straight line away from the Styx Regality Plane as an endless sea of the VOID approached him from behind, his figure luminous as the beam of light made him seem like a dazzling firefly in a dark stellar night!
And just as he moved a few light years forward…
BZZT!
He felt space coil and constrict around him as an instant later, an essence at his very core felt a rejection as his advancement was stopped and he was pushed back.
…!
He gazed towards the point of the rejection as unbelievably, a thin golden film of light could be seen extending in front of him and going on to cover the space above and below- this golden film of light even extending and wrapping around the far away Styx Regality Plane as it seemed like a circular barrier that contained everything!
<A Barrier of Destiny. Useless for many other beings, but specifically made for you with all the beings you shared destiny and karma within your Age…O True Emperor of Destiny.>
A powerful but young voice resounded out as Oppenheimer's clouded expression turned towards a corner of the golden barrier nearby where he saw multiple figures materialize.
A devilishly handsome young man he had never seen before.
But the others…
…!
His eyes opened wide with surprise as he saw beings he didn't expect to see ever again in his life.
The visage of the Dimensional Ruler of Avalon, Guinevere.
The forlorn figure of the Dimensional Deceiver, Lilith!
The sharp golden hair of a Dream Dimensional Ruler he remembered during his conquest, Eowyn!
One Dimensional Ruler after another appeared before him in a shocking turn of events, with all of these beings not merely making their appearance as an instant after…they released horrific Planar Domains of the essence of Consummate Boundaries!
Two Reverend Emperors behind him, and the sudden appearance of multiple combatants who seemed even more dreadful as they each released an aura of Consummate Boundaries- their purpose deadly and singular as it only seemed to be coming for his life.
Oppenheimer was more than surprised at such a progression of events as before they occurred, Destiny should have warned him!
Why would it not warn him?
HOONG!
He felt a dazzling sense of danger as even though he had obtained the Eyes of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform, he had yet to and couldn't truly make them his as so far, he had only been capable of using their closeness to Extremity to bring Destiny and one other Boundary to the 7th Boundary Layer.
With the might of the Eyes of Clarity, he was able to withstand attacks of Reverends and even hide from them as this situation…it wasn't in line with his destiny!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust who had masked and messed around with his destiny…
As his body channeled the power of the Eyes of Clarity, they came to land on the visage of the young existence that had spoken.
When Oppenheimer looked closely at this being, his face held features he felt like he had seen before! Features of…
'Impossible…' The moment the thought entered his mind, Oppenheimer likened the image of the young being before him with that of the Entity he had evaded from the Abyssal Sanctimonious Lands!
And when their gazes locked, this figure smiled with a knowing look as his voice echoed out.
<You overcame all the distinguished Destined Emperors and Chosen Emperors in your Age…I'm curious if you'll be able to do the same today!>
WAA!
With a burst of grandeur, the son of the True Emperor of Quintessence moved with desolating might against the True Emperor of Destiny!
Within the Abyssal Sanctimonious Lands.
As the Son faced his first real challenge, the Father faced yet another arduous trial as his mission at this moment was surging against an attack from an Apex Aeonic Soul Totem!
Something that carried a trace of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform!
The moment it arched towards him, he felt his Lifeforms draining even with the countless layers of defenses he had.
The only reason he kept his life was due to the constant instant regeneration from exploding Quintessential Kainos Aeonic Prana and Dream Cosmos and the benefits of the 9th Boundary Layers of these Boundaries that he had enacted.
Layers that…connected him to the authentic Minor Planes of Existence in his Infinite Plane!
<The 9th Boundary Layer of Dreams>:: The barrier between the Dimensional Realities in your Origin and the Dimensional Realities in the Infinite Plane becomes increasingly thin. At this point in time, you can extract the power of the Dream Dimensional Reality to manifest in the surrounding area space as Quintessential Aeonic Dream Xystons will materialize and wander around any area of the presented Dimensional Reality to deliver attacks that contain 3x your Aeonic Soul Damage Values as well as the weight of the whole Dream Dimensional Reality. Another authority brought forth is that your Aeonic Vitality Values become fixed and bound to the Dream Dimensional Reality, where only when 90% of the Dimensional Reality is annihilated can your final Aeonic Vitality Value be destroyed. As the Infinite Plane and your own First Plane of Extremity change, the description of this Layer will change and have new features…
