What Made You So Bold! I
What Made You So Bold! I
Yet she seemed unruffled even while constantly on the defensive, a golden light descending down to block the blows of the Grand Primordial Beast as every time, she was thrown back with this light gradually becoming dimmer and dimmer.
The figures of Foremother Rose and Forefather Isaac shone with brilliance as they came to her aid, their bodies releasing crimson and golden glows respectively as they cast the abilities unique to their Houses to layer a multitude of shields around Princess Halcyon a moment later as they didn't even bother attacking the Grand Primordial Beast.
Maybe if more beings at their level were here, they could stand a chance to defeat this creature. But since its aim seemed to purely be to ravage Princess Halcyon, all they had to do was cast defensive skills against her that continued to be broken constantly!
Amidst the glows of crimson, green, and gold surrounding her, Princess Halcyon could be seen with an utterly serene expression as her eyes were even landing on the figures of the Blue Slime and newly appearing summons that had joined the fray against the three winged abominations.
'The Tainted Ones finally make their appearance as those detestable things now don't seem too far away.' Her thoughts were not even on this battle as she thought of other matters!
'But with their appearance, it further affirms that this Osmont might just be...'
BOOM!
While withstanding another attack from the Grand Primordial Beast, Halcyon thought of the many things she had seen as she recited to herself.
'The open descent of the Tainted Ones shows the way. Endless seas converge and are called upon. Shattered links becoming one with never before seen speed. With hands filled with much yet desiring more, glimmering balls of light will be shackled to his core…'
Words that she found herself reciting since she was ten years old. Just a mere portion of words that she repeated throughout her life, and this portion was only now playing before her eyes millions of years later!
She was never one for riddles, and it was why she both hated and loathed such riddles that continued to repeat in her mind over the years.
'The open descent of Tainted Ones is fairly simple to understand but...endless seas converging? Shattered links becoming one with never before seen speed?' Her thoughts danced on the second and third verses that she still found herself wondering about, as she was fairly sure of what the last one meant.
'The balls of light shackled to his core should be Cosmos, which means…'
BOOM!
Yet another strike from the Primordial Beast thundered from the Primordial Beast as Halcyon was forcefully shaken out of her stupor, at the same time, the voice of Forefather Isaac rang out for all to hear as he spoke in a grim fashion.
"I cannot get word out to anyone...we are surrounded by a terrifying barrier that no mental waves of communication can cross!"
His voice caused the hearts of the Daolords and Antiquities to turn ashen as Halcyon kept her stout demeanor.
'Why would they bother even turning away the gaze of the Great Conqueror if they couldn't stop anymore from entering the Primal Haventower?' Her eyes danced on everything occurring as she wasn't worried, and the source of this came from the figures that had began to move with fervor at this very moment!
BZZZT!
A glimmering cerulean figure of a Blue Slime the size of half a Galaxy was tearing across the shattered void of the Primal Haventower as a myriad of Runic Dao Lines floated over its viscous skin, it's figure fearlessly smashing into a Tainted One as above its head, a terrifying wheel screaming of ancientness appeared.
"Primordial Wheel of Extinction."
It's voice echoed out a second later as this terrifying Wheel began to turn, each turn causing the body of the Tainted One before the Blue Slime to constrict and become stiffer as during this time, the body of the Blue Slime expanded to cover the Tainted One as…
"Universal Devouring."
WAP!
The creature disappeared a second later. With its disappearance, the aura around the Blue Slime blazed ever higher as even more Runic Dao Lines now swirled over its cerulean body, an obsidian [Coagulated Origin Blood] that it couldn't devour disappearing silently amidst the Chaos as its body moved to find another Tainted One!
'What a unique creature…' Halcyon certainly thought so as when she gazed at the Ten Headed Dragon, Golden Crow, and a myriad of other existences that now carried with them the unique signature of Daolord Osmont, she saw the battle that they were losing slowly stabilize as the Tainted Ones were matched and even slowly being killed, the major obstacle remaining to be the Grand Primordial Beast that they were defending against.
"Whatever is happening here has been planned very well...with no aid coming to us anytime soon." Halcyon's voice echoed out in the surroundings as it was focused on Forefather Isaac and Foremother Rose.
"Stand strong and defend with everything you have...these creatures will not dare be here for too long!"
THRUM!
Her voice echoed out as her golden hair danced on her shoulders, her hands raised up as above her head, numerous glimmering golden shield that numbered in the millions formed in rows- these shields beginning to rotate around her madly as she continued to do what she was intent on doing.
That was...to defend as she waited. Waited to see what the results of this battle would be...and what results Daolord Osmont would have with whatever he was currently facing!

In an unknown location where the very atmosphere itself felt like a viscous dredge that dragged one down, the weight being akin to that of dozens of Universes weighing one down.
There were dark clothed Daolords and even powerful Tainted Ones situated atop three Primordial Beasts, these beasts at least being Lesser as the situation wasn't one that was entirely bleak for a newly rising Daolord that had touched the boundary of Edicts!
It was not a bleak situation, but it was one that should guarantee the death of a single Daolord.
The core word to pay attention to here was 'should'!
But the Daolord in question was releasing waves of baleful essence as if he wasn't the one on the chopping board to be massacred, his eyes releasing golden beams of light as he spoke out chillingly towards the enemies surrounding him.
"I haven't gotten the chance to spam for a while...and for that, I thank you."
THRUM!
As Primordial Beasts, Daolords, and Tainted Ones rushed towards him, the figure of Noah actually got comfortable as he sat in a meditative position, his body domineeringly releasing the light of countless skills!
