2838 What is Extremity? II

It was an experience that the Cimmerian Architect would never forget as truly, even though she stood at the Fifth Gradation of Extremity- the Raid Boss she faced who was designated to be at the peak of the Fourth Gradation of Extremity was matching her power.

By challenging the Obsidian Difficulty Solo, she had taken care of all other Enders as the only enemy left was Oppenheimer, and even though she had the upper hand….

HUUM!

The massive body of this Raid Boss seemed to have the vitality of multiple Entities at the Fifth Gradation of Extremity as the extremes of Prana and Life coursed through him, which when supported by the Existential light of Quintessence…allowed him to survive the relentless attacks of someone as powerful as the Cimmerian Architect.

But soon enough, she would grind his Vitality Values out entirely as her intuition told her that the rewards would be grand.

They may even be enough to stabilize and propel her towards a distant but close Sixth Gradation of Extremity.

[Come o-]

BZZT!

Her words came to a halt as the massive figure of Oppenheimer also came to a stop.

Because in front of their eyes, a terrifying authority bloomed as shockingly- the Extremity of Quintessence himself appeared within this Record.

When he did, the eyes of the Raid Boss- Oppenheimer, flickered brightly as he bowed down and kneeled.

While the Cimmerian Architect…

[I know I didn't fucking challenge the Tyrannical Difficulty…

come on!]

She felt exasperated at the unfolding reality as towards her words, the Extremity of Quintessence had his eyes shining brilliantly as his voice was resolute.

[Just a minor interference for me to test something. Attack me. Think of it as a spar.]

…!

She felt his gaze lock onto her as her eyes became somber.

A spar.

She had fought him just seconds ago in a battle with other Entities at the Fifth Gradation of Extremity.

Before they were all almost smitten out of existence.

At that time, she could somewhat match his power.

This was before he had fully undergone his changes as the Primogenitor of multiple Existential Extremity Authorities.

So where would he be now? And how close could she match him when she herself had Quintessence coursing through her?

Her soul buzzed.

And her concepts followed as she laid the groundwork with the Extremity Rune Scriptures of Intuition.

And…her very existence was alarmed a moment later as the moment she made the Extremity of Quintessence her target, an unbelievable sense of danger and oppression was transmitted from Intuition!

The Cimmerian Architect felt this sensation.

And then there was Noah.

What he was seeing was an entirely new reality!

The moment his words had finished, he saw the few hundred thousand Extremity Rune Scriptures swirling around the existence that was the Cimmerian Architect.

In the past, she was someone who controlled Polychrome Hyperversal Existential Extremity Rune Scriptures of Vacuous.

Her power was profound!

And yet at this moment, Noah very clearly saw the extremes of her concepts.

Their intent, purpose, weaving and longing!

And he saw how they looked in comparison to his own extremes.

Like flickering stars holding their own dim glow in the form of Extremity Rune Scriptures, they exerted their extremes.

His concepts looked different.

They looked like weavings of dazzling suns that shone with a blinding radiance, while when he gazed at the concepts of the Cimmerian Architects, they looked like dim stars.

As he saw this and compared the two, the forming Oraculum seemed to bloom with information as he instantly understood why.

The image of his concepts as blinding suns showed their endless radiance to eventually have the capability to light up and become something even more.

Something Existential.

His concepts were Dead Paths, and thus, they looked different.

His other concepts that weren't initially Dead Paths…they also held similar blinding Radiances as after being taken to the height of Quintessential Zenith Concepts, their difficulty in attaining Extremity and traversing across the Gradations was just as high!

But their brightness left open a possibility for advancement as it seemed…a Dead Path was one of the pathways to turn a concept into something Existential!

Did this mean Vitalis and Vacuous were Dead Paths, or did they take other routes to become Existential? Or were they always Existential to begin with and they were never even dead paths?

This question buzzed in Noah's mind as he came to gaze upon Quintessence, Infinity, and Tyranny.

Their Colorless, Cerulean, and Amethyst colors were not mere blinding suns within Noah's body…but each one held a dazzling iridescent glow that covered his whole existence entirely.

He could now see the pristinely circular auras of colorless, cerulean, and amethyst layered over his body- over his very existence as their brilliance stretched out for light years.

Their brilliance went on to cover everything round him…

stretching out all the way across the very Infinite Hyperversal Haven!

They affected everything.

They held an intricate balance over his existence that currently seemed to be capable of supporting these three fairly new Existential Extremity Authorities.

As their authorities grew, the breadth of his existence had to also grow alongside them as if he wasn't strong enough, they could not progress forward!

This also brought into question whether he could elevate more concepts into the Existential level and still support them with his existence.

It felt like there would be a limit.

But he didn't know what this limit currently was.

One more? Three more? Six more?

He couldn't tell.

But currently, he began to feel.

He felt the sensation and the very intent of the extremes of the Cimmerian Architect before she even activated her Rune Scriptures to channel their authority as at this moment, he came to focus on the foremost authority she put forward.

Intuition.

In his vision, it flickered with a white light as tens of thousands of Rune Scriptures holding a portion of its source were going to light up in order to read the current reality and upcoming reality before it sent this feedback into the mind of its Master- the Cimmerian Architect.

But since Noah could see what this extreme intended to do even before it did so…

HUUM!

The amethyst glow of Tyranny that was circling around him but also had its light illuminating light years all around…he manipulated it's intent and obscured the Extremity of Intuition from exerting it's authority.

And the eyes of the Cimmerian Architect became alarmed and somber as she found out…Intuition could not reach much about what was coming, and due to such a shocking phenomenon, it only warned her of immense danger!

As if the enemy she faced was not that could be understood by even the Extreme of Intuition!

…!

The Extremity of a Concept.

What exactly was the Extremity of something?

The furthest point of something. The utmost limit there could be. The apex, pinnacle, or the very zenith of what that 'thing' was.

At this moment, when Noah observed the Extreme of the concept of Intuition swirling around the Cimmerian Architect, he felt it's intent and weaving clearly as if he were looking at a clear formula.

He felt its longing and emotion as this concept…sought foreknowledge.

It sought to understand things before they unfolded, and it longed for nothing more than to understand…even without understanding. To act on instinct.

The moment Noah was able to read its longing like this…

[You have grasped the Weaving of Intuition.]

…!

His own existence blinked as an instant later, he saw a Colorless Hyperversal Quintessential Extremity Rune Scripture of Intuition form in front of him.

Since he was able to gaze at and see the intent of this extreme.

Its longing and desires.

Naturally…he was able to attain its Extremity after understanding its desires!

And under him, this Extreme could be elevated to an even grander level.

HUUM!

His existence buzzed.

[The emerging Existential Dynamis has allowed you to begin understanding the Weaving of Extremity.]

[You are at a point of unfathomable brilliance.]

…!
