"<Ascendant Illuminating Soul Star>."

BZZZT!

The words were said lightly as they seemed to be drowned out in the buzzing of the Zither notes that were rushing forward from the Adjudicator Legion of the Empyrean Elves.

50,000 Units of the Essence of Reality were burned to activate it- this only being half of the required amount that Noah paid due to his Runic Kainos Mana Lines of Ascendancy!

When the words were done, they seemed like the only thing in the vast Realities as above Noah's pristine figure, a deathly blue star began to form.

A star vaster than any world or universe- a star that seemed to be radiating its pristine light the size of a Cosmos! A star…that nobody would miss when they gazed towards Noah's figure.

HUUUUM!

A droning sound buzzed as this star enacted with the authority of a single Ascendancy Halo came out with the capability to deal just 10,000 True Reality Soul Damage Values…and an additional 50,000+ True Reality Damage Values that didn't contain the aspect of soul damage and were only there because they were applied to all abilities Noah cast!

But between the measly 10,000 True Reality Soul Damage Values and the 50,000 True Reality Damage Values…the former that was purely soul damage was much, much more dreadful.

WAA!

The terrifying blue star was established as its outside layer seemed crystalline in texture, and it pulsed with a light of majesty that seemed to represent Noah's own cerulean liquified soul.

It was exposed to the outside world for the first time as in the swarm of attacks tearing apart space itself, it caught the vision of all the Empyrean Elves. After all, how could they not gaze at the attacks of the enemy and judge how to evade them?

The problem was, this attack was triggered the moment that they gazed at it as their souls were first hit with 10,000 True Reality Soul Damage Values and then 50,000 True Reality Damage Values as Adjudicator Larkin- an existence powerfully at the stage of A Legend's Visage…was the first one to face this attack as he had the fastest reaction.

And yet this first reaction of his would actually spell the doom of this Adjudicator Commander as the moment his eyes landed on the blue star, his young soul that had yet to reach the Primogenial Strata received booming soul force that it could not withstand in any way- the light within his soul instantly becoming extinguished as his radiant eyes turned a deathly blank white color!

BZZZT!

Even more shockingly, after the initial soul damage, the regular True Reality Damage Values came in as with the deathly white eyes as the source, the body of this pristine Adjudicator Commander ruptured into pieces as golden blood began to freely surge out.

"Ah…!"

Those behind him in his Legion had only a minuscule delay since they related slower, but the same result happened with them as their eyes turned deathly white from merely gazing towards Noah's direction and soon after, their bodies fell apart!

"..."

Terrifying silence descended as only the sounds of corporeal Zither notes could be heard, these attacks losing the source that cast them as they barely reached Noah's body before they began to fade.

An entire Adjudicator Legion that was one of the many core strengths of the Empyrean Elves…had all perished from a single look cast towards the Unnamed Kainos Emperor!

It was terrifying and unbelievable, but it was only made possible due to the fact that their enemy was on an entirely different Strata! If they didn't have unique means to defend themselves, what could they do but perish?

OOOM!

The surging crimson gold rivers of blood moved across the austere space as they surged towards Noah's body just like the rivers of blood from the previous Legions of the three Primordial Bloodlines- all of them going towards elevating Noah higher as he would refine their Bloodlines to accomplish the Arcadian Physique.

It was a devastating and beautiful sight to watch as top tier beings in the Firmaments of Ascendancy perished in the blink of an eye, their identity not mattering as Commanders and Soldiers perished all the same!

Thereafter, the Unnamed Kainos Emperor watched the prompts of loot rain over his eyes as just like before, he waited.

His eyes contained many emotions as he reflected on the fragility of life and the cause and effects of his own actions, his Bloodline tyrannically holding him steady as it caused his eyes to only gaze towards the future where boundless glory was waiting.

He waited for resources to come to him and aid him in completing one more Physique…and he waited for even more glorious loot to build his foundation upon.

But as he waited, those that were making their way towards him now were much more terrifying than the Legions that contained hundreds or thousands, with the fastest one being a single being that was listening to the song of destiny and trusting its intuition!

His destiny had yet to alert him as when it did, the unfolding reality would be a wonder to see!

The river of time flowed as events unfolded across the vast Realities.

For Noah, he was making advancements in many different directions as after achieving the Primogenial Strata of the Soul, many things became easier. One of these…was his journey across Dimensions.

SHIING!

Silver sand whipped around him as recently, the allure of golden sand that pulsed with light also began to rise up in his surroundings as Noah's True Sanguine Clone in the Dream Dimension had been crossing across its veiled surroundings filled with potent Dream Essence nearly 10 times faster than before!

His elevated soul seemed to see through the endless Sands of Dreams at a much faster rate as he progressed through them, and his destiny could finally feel something opening up ahead as he began to see denser swirling golden sand different from the endless silver waves he had faced.

The swirling golden sand spun with ferocity as it seemingly formed into a barrier, Noah's body wrapped up in Dream Essence while he utilized <Sandman> as he placed his hand on this wall of golden sand- his soul and Essence bursting onto it with full force!

BOOM!

The sound of something shattering could be heard as Noah broke a certain barrier and flowed through its thick sand smoothly, appearing on the other side as the scene was enough to make one's eyes water from astonishment and wonder.

Before him, no more storms of swirling sand could be seen as stretches of golden sand mountains could be seen all around- all of them situated around a single centered structure that took all light in this wide enclosed space.

This structure was larger than a hundred Cosmos put together as it looked like an ancient golden Fountain that had been through countless eons, the top of this fountain constantly and peacefully spurting out crystallized golden sand that caused Noah's heart to race!

This was one shocking thing as the other…was the fact that around this enormous golden fountain, marbled sand domes, castles, and skyscrapers could be seen as within them- boundless life forces could be felt.

Even from afar, Noah could already begin to see some of them as their bodily composition seemed to match the freely moving golden sand that made up everything, with the most shocking thing being the strongest aura and life force he could feel even from where he stood with clarity.

It couldn't be sensed before he broke the barrier, but he could feel it now clearly as out in the open- the aura reminiscent of a LEGEND could be felt.

In the Dream Dimension, there were Nightmares…and there were also Living Dreams.

At this moment, Noah had come across his first Domain that held wondrous Living Dreams, and the most powerful one presiding here was an existence he could not even dream of matching at this moment in time!
