We are the Protectors! I
We are the Protectors! I
Vast droves of essence swirled around Noah as his hair waved madly, his Origin accepting the unique essence of the Primordial Heart as he focused on just one at this moment. As he saw millions upon millions of Dao Galaxies being forged, he was also making plans for sharing this wondrous treasure with his people as with it, he could effectively raise multiple antiquities and elevate the power of those with specific Archetypes to a greater level.
All of this…stemmed just from killing a single Primordial Beast as the importance one could place on such existences was not little.
And even though Noah was placing great importance on the type of treasure that was a Primordial Heart, he was actually still majorly off on its importance- as it was even higher than he could have imagined!
With the Primordial Hearts, things that were insurmountable and unimaginable one day could only be seen as an inevitability the next day!

The strong get stronger while the weaker get weaker!
These words rang out clearly in the minds of those listening to King Augustus, the face of this powerful antiquity returning to utter calm as he voiced out.
"The Indigo Cosmos will soon be pulled into the vast Primordial Empire as with the terrifying Antiquities and Daolords there, even though the subjects I have been overseeing for millions of years within this Cosmos might be safe, the fate of all of us will fall into the hands of whatever power in the Primordial Empire deposes my family!"
…!
The eyes of this Antiquity and his daughter flashed powerfully at this, their eyes focusing on Noah at this moment as King Augustus spoke hesitatingly.
"But...getting the chance to meet Daolord Osmont might open up another path tha-"
THRUM!
Right at this crucial moment, a robust voice reverberated out from a shimmering medallion that was attached to the robe of the white haired King Augustus!
"Father, the Antiquities of the Primordial Empire have arrived!"
…!
The voice of Alexus Marcus Tiberius rang out as an unhappy expression covered Augustus, looking at the buzzing medallion as he sighed and then spoke apologetically towards Noah.
"I'll have to cut it short for now and go see the Envoys of the Primordial Empire."
Augustus nodded to his daughter as she waved her hands to return them to the visible folds of space, Noah's eyes lighting up at the coming information as he spoke out with a light of interest.
"Antiquities of the Primordial Empire? I'm curious to see them myself...we shall follow!"
Tides of destiny churned as the King of the Indigo Cosmos nodded with wise eyes, their figures returning to the Bluefield Universe where other guests had arrived!

"Are you joking? A single being took out a Lesser Primordial Beast? Someone not from the Primordial Empire?"
RUMBLE
A booming voice filled with power and pride dominated out towards Alexus and the other 2 Antiquities left behind, this voice stemming from a powerful Antiquity that was releasing waves of Primordial Essence!
He was surrounded by 4 other Antiquities that either had Primordial or Ruination Essence surrounding them- these existences being the Envoys that came after hearing the call for reinforcements from the Indigo Cosmos.
Alexus glanced at their robes that had a golden insignia of a mythical sword, his eyes lighting up as he replied with a smile.
"Respected Envoys, the one to take care of the Primordial Beast alone was a Daolord…"
…!
The words caused the eyes of the 5 Envoys from the Primordial Empire to constrict, looking at everything more closely as they looked at the chunks of glimmering meat and blood that could still be seen floating in the Ruination Sea!
A Daolord! One that didn't stem from the Primordial Empire as he came from an unknown location. And this being had not only defeated the Primordial Beast but…
The eyes of the leading Antiquity raised up as he spoke out domineeringly.
"And the Primordial Heart?"
Yes! The treasured Primordial Heart that could open up doorways of possibilities- the thing that if any of them obtained, they could advance their might greatly! Getting the chance to even find a Primordial Beast was rare, and the Indigo Cosmos fell under the jurisdiction of their family but...someone else had snatched it right under their nose.
Seeing the expressions of Alexus and the other two Antiquities, the Envoys from the Primordial Empire could infer all they needed to know as the leading figure harrumphed and spoke out powerfully!
"And where is this so-called Daolord right now?"
The voice was that of power and full of unblemished pride, where even though it was talking about a being that had more power than them, they seemingly weren't afraid as these Envoys dared to talk like this!
"Oh, are you looking for me?"
THRUM!
From the boundary of the Bluefield Universe, a voice stretched out to reverberate in their ears calmly, a figure materializing before them as he was followed by a myriad of summons and the stout image of King Augustus and Lexis.
Augustus looked towards his son Alexus with a stern face that was utterly filled with disappointment for him giving such information freely, looking towards the Envoys of the Primordial Empire as their eyes were not even focused on him.
Their 5 pairs of eyes were focused on Noah alone as he carried himself with a unique air, the two sides locking gazes with each other as Noah laid his eyes on the beings from the lands that Aegon the Conqueror ruled!
Each of them was adorned with a white robe that had the symbol of a golden sword, this golden sword being further distinct as it had a green flower blooming from its hilt.
The golden sword represented the Primordial Empire, and the blooming green flower represented the power within this Empire that these beings stemmed from!
Their very bodies screamed regality and majesty as they weren't just nobodies- they were existences from the Primordial Empire! These were beings that had lived for millions of years in a prosperous environment, one that had powerful families in the lead as they enjoyed a certain treatment throughout.
Pride and arrogance were ingrained in their bones, and they knew this in their hearts as they didn't bother to correct it! After all, they were the ones stemming from the Bastion of Reality, the place where Aegon the Conqueror ruled with an iron fist...the Primordial Empire!
So even against a foreign Daolord, these beings were fearless!
"We were. Daolord Osmont, is it?"
RUMBLE!
