Chapter 951 - The Tyrannical Dragon Emperor Enters The Stage! I
Next to the large red stars on the Slaughter Star Monolith where the Paragons entering the would be displayed, a ranking glimmering with a brilliant gold color could be seen as it showed the most powerful Paragons to have entered this Universal Construct and defeated others.
When a being first stepped into the Slaughter Star Monolith for battle, they would randomly be assigned to another creature at the same rank as them! There were only three possibilities after that- Victory, Defeat, or Death!
Most times, it was actually Death as those coming across each other in the Slaughter Star Monolith would more than always lead to slaughter. If a being was able to call out his defeat before his death though, he would be sent out of the Monolith- for a deadly price.
Those who didn't face death but admitted defeat would have their power stripped by more than half as they found half of their origin and soul power drained from them!
Death was more preferred for all those battling as it gave one of the perks that many who entered the Monolith sought out for- enhanced strength for their Grand Dao of Slaughter, and something that was considered an enhancement of the Soul by those frequenting the Slaughter Star Monolith.
The origins and souls of the defeated beings inside the Monolith would be absorbed by the victor, their souls being heavily enhanced as they would quickly make way towards assimilating the Grand Dao of Slaughter. If one finished assimilating it, its strength would still be enhanced even further as the prowess one could display only increased!
To those frequenting the Slaughter Star Monolith, the enhancement of the soul allowed them to advance through Daos faster, and this was something that Noah had already come across in the terms of boosts that granted him percentages to Increased Comprehension and Assimilation of All Daos!
But beings within this Universal Construct were fighting for their lives and honor just to grab small percentages to increase their comprehension through slaughtering and absorbing the strength of others.
Within the Universal Construct, every single life form walked so freely because an Absolute Rule existed within it that nobody could harm another, the only battles filled with death and destruction happening when one entered the crimson Slaughter Star Monolith that stretched to skies!
This created for a unique environment where one could routinely see Sages, Great Sages, and Monarchs associating with each other!
Noah's eyes shone as they looked over the Monolith and the rankings of the Paragons across many Universes that had left their names on it. The golden luster of the rankings made it seem extremely mesmerizing as the honor to be listed on it was the wildest dreams of many rising beings.
The beings that took the first few spots in the Paragon Rankings were extremely striking, their origins being something that caused Noah to look at them closely!
[1 :: Elilleah of the Grand Light- Elysian Universe]
[2 :: Bionic Prototype #59- Automaton Universe]
…[5 :: Galaxy Devourer, Ensalax - Chthonian Universe]
…[10 :: Paragon Hero, Tecton]
Beings coming from many different origins, each one with their own unique powers!
The Monarch and Great Sage Rankings were no different as they were filled with beings from varying Universes, but something unique that Noah noticed was how much of the ranks were dominated from beings in the Elysian, Chthonian, Liberated, Automaton, and a few other Universes.
These Universes produced powerful beings that excelled over others in the same stage!
Noah continued to glance at the lists and the enormous Monolith consisting of too many stars, moving his 10 meter draconic body in the surroundings as very few people paid heed to him.
He only received glances as a Dragon was somewhat unique, with many of the beings in the Universal Construct currently not having heard about or seen Noah's shocking actions of standing up against the very same Hegemony that anchored this very same Slaughter Star Monolith not reaching them as it was mostly the powerful creatures within the Animus Universe!
The areas around Noah were bustling as lifeforms of all types and sizes weaved around, some enthusiastically talking to each other while glancing at the enormous Monolith that stood at the center of everything.
"Monarch Lavigo is on his 10th winning streak at this moment! The Monarch from the Microbial Universe couldn't hide this time around!"
"Hah! You're watching the wrong thing! Let me tell you...the battles between Paragons are the ones to always watch, I obtained a breakthrough in understanding a Dao I was stuck on just from focusing on the battle between Paragon Nightwatch and Grant!"
"I…"
A buzz of words and activities continued to occur throughout as Noah's eyes absorbed them all with bright eyes, making his way across the throngs of unique beings as he went towards the enormous Slaughter Star Monolith.
He was here just for this, after all!

In a region littered with beautiful Clusters of planetary bodies, the Hegemony of laughter floated in the midst of space as he was looking at a model of the very same Slaughter Star Monolith that was anchored across many Universes.
It looked like he was staring at an illusory image of a tower consisting of many circular red stars, an innumerable number of white dots surrounding it as these represented the many creatures that had entered through the gateways of the Universal Construct!
At this time, Ambrose was staring at a particular dot of Light that had entered and began making its way towards the enormous glimmering tower.
Unlike all the other white dots of light, this one shone a bright red as it matched the energy signature of a being Ambrose had marked from the moment he met him!
After trying to discern destiny again and again while sensing where the tides of fortune were twisting to, Ambrose found himself moving with much more care even as he saw the dwindling Universal Fortune.
As he looked at the red dot of light get closer to entering the Slaughter Star Monolith, his eyes shone with a dominating light as he spoke with a cold voice.
"Yes. Enter the Monolith of Slaughter and Death...let's see how long you will last there!"
RUMBLE!
