Chapter 1323 - Did You Know? II
As Noah was watching the spectacular battle, his Origin suddenly trembled as his destiny and fortune churned madly towards a certain direction.
"Hmm?"
It was such a strong reaction that he couldn't ignore it, his essence of Kismet beginning to dance in an impatient manner as Noah quickly discerned what his destiny was trying to lead him to!
More than anything, it was information from an existence Noah knew that he could utilize the abilities from the Edict of Kismet to listen to the conversations of without their knowledge, and the one Noah's destiny was focused on today was a single being as he silently cast Reader's Foresight while focusing on none other than Stormdust.
…!
Essence surged silently.
A golden book bloomed as pristine white words began to be etched throughout it.
<..."Epitaphs…ah, only Primordials can play and have access to these as unless I dissect Aegon and call down his Master preemptively, I have to move in the dark and use you as a guinea pig, Betrayer."
The voice was calm and filled with power as Stormdust's influenced mind was already jumbled to the extent that he merely nodded silently.
He was to be used as a guinea pig for Hyperion's experiment to do what only the Primordials were capable of doing! Under the influence of Hyperion, the soul of Stormdust was already placed under his will entirely as such a terrifying prospect only seemed natural for power.
"Oh, here comes that ability he used to wipe out those three young ones."
BZZT!
In the scene of the Cosmic Battlefield, the now Draconic-Elephantine body of Stormdust surrounded by raging Flames of a completed Edict was going to face another blast capable of shattering Reality from Aegon when suddenly, the figure flashed away from the current position and appeared a light years away!
The eyes of the Tyrant upon a throne flashed as he saw such a scene, his gaze following the figure of Stormdust that stared at the figure of Aegon and the location of the shattered Reality that it had just flashed away from.
"Is that the main ability from your System, little Champion? The invisible essence you tried to mask in your attack to latch onto me?"
…!
Explosive words came out as Aegon's eyes turned utterly cold!
An invisible essence! This was what had latched onto the three Grand Primordial Beasts at the time that Aegon ripped apart the wings of one of them, and all it took thereafter was a single command from Aegon as these powerful existences perished!
"An ability that ignores all True Defenses as long as its essence attaches to its target, allowing you to conduct whatever reality altering verdict as your enemies can do nothing but perish..that is if you manage to successfully hook that essence onto them. What if I just dodge it, little Champion?"
Hyperion's voice was filled with disdain as it caused the impassive figure of Aegon to undulate with power, this Conqueror not being provoked at all as instead of blowing up and showing even more of his abilities, his aura was actually reigned in while he stared at the far away figure of the Draconic-Elephantine Stormdust.
His Cosmos reflected brilliantly on his chest as with a calm demeanor as if a portion of his abilities were not just figured out, he spoke valiantly.
"You must be the risen Cosmic Primordial Beast that has been moving around recently. Do you think this mere attack is enough to destabilize my Empire? Your possession of this…existence being enough for you to come and test me?"
WAA!
He spoke as the regality of an Emperor weaved around him, the wriggling Runic Dao Lines that he had been constantly commanding to go to certain portions of his body coming to silently settle back on his skin as his voice continued to echo out.
"Why not bring your main body here, little Beast? I can show you all you want to know about my System then. I will let you know what Invincible truly means!"
…!
Loud and resonant, the Great Conqueror spoke.
A Champion and an Ender of Reality…two completely different existences that each had their own goals- such beings stared at each other coldly as their mere presence caused the surrounding space to shake and tumble!....>
SNAP!
The pages of the golden book finished their Inscription as it closed shut, Noah's eyes shining brightly as he thought of the beginning of what he read and the current scene before him of the staredown between Hyperion and Aegon!
The first portion he had read that held the conversation between Hyperion and Stormdust's soul were the most important, where even his destiny had weaved to lead him to focus on this.
'This Cosmic Primordial Beast…actually wants to elevate himself to the level of Primordials and do what they can do as he wants to design a Primordial Epitaph and forge a System!'
Yes! Hyperion had selected Stormdust as the guinea pig for such a task as similar to Primordials, this being has access to the Essence of Reality from Devouring many Universes and Cosmos, and it was also this essence of Reality that allowed it to forge multiple Edicts and even complete some.
Now, this existence wanted to do even more as he was trying to forge a Primordial Epitaph, something that only Higher Existences could even imagine doing- and Hyperion had no idea where to start.
'Well, he should be on his way to becoming a Higher Existence depending on when he completed his Edicts, and depending on how many completed earnings that can generate the True Blood of Higher Existences…'
Noah tapped on the Throne of Tyranny as he thought simply in the millisecond that Hyperion and Aegon were fiercely staring at each other, his eyes lighting up brightly as he saw an opportunity blooming before his eyes!
It was an opportunity for something he very badly wanted to do but did not yet have the resources to do so- something that he already had a blueprint of and what a certain Cosmic Primordial Beast wanted to get their hands on!
