Everything has a price! II
Everything has a price! II
The Nomological Edict of Samsara was something that another existence designed, and Noah didn't yet know just what power holders of Edicts had as he had to move carefully. He didn't think the Architect of this Edict was the Primordial he got it from, as things would have never ended that easily with her if this was the case!
It was an area for him to be careful in, but since he hadn't sensed anything wrong so far, he would wait to see until he himself established his Nomological Edict to see what authority its Architects gained.
With high spirits and having found a proper combination of laws and daos that was just waiting for him to complete into an Edict, Noah waved his hands to collect the loot displayed around him as the cluster of Pandemonium turned dimmer once more.
Three Primordial Hearts from Lesser Primordial Beasts…the vibrant multicolored treasures still caused Noah's heart to beat faster as they simply represented too many Marks of Antiquity and Splendiferous Universes! He put aside these and the Universal Filament Cores, even finding from the bundle of loot that was dropped from the Daolords some skill books that were even outshined by the cores and Runic Dao Lines.
Noah glanced at their details briefly as he saw nearly all of the skill books in the small cluster were lesser than many that he had designed himself, but he learned them all regardless even if they wouldn't be utilized in the future, and they would of course be extra additions to the Library feature of the Infinite Cosmos.
'No resources to be wasted!' Noah thought simply with a smile as he grasped onto 33 Runic Dao Line Enhancers. 33 was a terrifying number as each of them represented a 5% enhancement of his Cosmic Runic Dao Lines, which was 500,000 of the base 10 million percent boost that when multiplied by this number…one received a total percentage greater than what even a single Cosmic Dao Line could provide!
Over 16,500,000% increase in percentage boosts as such a ridiculous reality meant Noah would be so much further ahead than other Daolords, where even if he hadn't burnt as many Cosmic Daos as them, his boosts could still be greater.
And depending on how many Daolords landed on his lap in the future- depending on how many Tainted Ones decided to gift themselves to him…it was bound to be a fantastical farming experience!
His eyes still had a bright luster as he gazed around the small cluster of Pandemonium he was in, having obtained crucial information from this experience as he now knew Primordial Beasts had already begun eating up the current reality, Cosmos acting like barriers as when they were devoured, these Beasts could chew off more of the Reality and create spaces like this.
Places with a repulsive essence that seemed utterly opposed to life...and Noah looked at this essence of Pandemonium closely as his fingers played with its viscous form before him.
When he found nothing from it but the sense of repulsion, he left it alone as he made a note to even come back here in the future and study this unique environment some more.
But for now, he would have to delve back into the Golden Citadel where the glorious Primal Haventower that was under attack lay, the battle there still at its peak as Noah had just finished his way too damn fast!
He was facing multiple Primordial Beasts, Tainted Ones, and Daolords alone- and yet he finished it all and was now ready to openly appear and reinforce those within the Primal Haventower.
Before he left, his mind had already laid out the next steps for himself as most important were the duplication of the Primordial Hearts and beginning to absorb them and forge the 1,000 required Universes and even more, with the next step being to cause the successful actualization of his first Nomological Edict!
This process should go relatively fast as Noah expected to have a Nomological Edict established with the day. But now, it was time for his grand reappearance.
THRUM!
Within the cluster room Pandemonium, his figure became suffused with a silver luster as he actually tore away from this unique environment, his figure teleporting at the same exact position that he was taken away from not too long ago!

The Primal Haventower had descended into further chaos as Noah's summons began to run rampant, their figures becoming prominent as they hunted the Tainted Ones causing the most chaos.
Meanwhile, the body of the Grand Primordial Beast was luminous glowing at this moment, having recently released a terrifying attack a few seconds back that threw back all three defending Forefather and Foremothers as if they were kites with their strings cut!
A sense of disbelief was hidden deep in the eyes of this Primordial Beast- and this was because it could sense the life force of the Lesser Primordial Beasts that were in the cluster of Pandemonium that it controlled.
Now, all three had died simultaneously- causing the senses of this Grand Primordial Beast to overflow as it wanted to complete its mission right away!
So it released a stupendous ability that required the sacrifice of dozens of Universes, and the result was that the efforts of three existences that had achieved to be heavily injured.
BZZZT!
The body of the Primordial Beast crackled with power as its claws ever so always remained focused on the figure of Princess Halcyon.
Her golden dress was currently stained red as one could see her fair shoulder was pierced, crimson blood leaking out freely as when one looked at her expression...she still had one of utter serenity!
Serenity while the claws of a Primordial Beast were thundering down towards her!
At such a moment, Noah's Primordial Ruination Clone reappeared in the Primal Haventower not too far away from this scene- Halcyon looking at his appearance as her eyes shone with a sharp light.
It seemed like the scene of a damsel in distress being saved from the claws of the Beast was about to play out, but Halcyon knew different as her eyes that were filled with utter serenity knew a few things about today with surety!
One was that her death would not be on this day. The second thing was that Daolord Osmont...would not get the chance to play the Hero on this day.
THRUM...CRACK!
As the dazzling life force of Princess Halcyon seemed about to be snuffed out, the 'sky' of the huge Primal Haventower shattered.
With it shattering, a terrifying aura descended down as everything came to a halt!
Everything came to a halt as a momentous and close chance meeting was about to occur!
