The surroundings calmed as the Chaotic storms of Chronos were the only things resounding throughout.
Love watched with a careful expression as the figure of Noah undulated with power at the same level as her- such a situation having many meanings as first and foremost...it meant a smooth pathway to the next stage of power.
"Antiquity…"
As she spoke these words, Noah's figure actually raised his eyes above as he saw the appearance of golden runic symbols that began to shower down over his body and sink into his Origin freely, these Runic symbols seemingly being etched with an ancient language as Noah was somehow able to understand they read…{ANTIQUITY}!
'The Marks of Antiquity…' He had a smile on his face as he thought about it, the many memories from thr Great Usurper long explaining the stages of power and the intricacies within it as he knew what these ancient Runic marks represented.
Reaching the stage right before Antiquity was the main prerequisite before one could start amassing them, with their existing a possibility to obtain them if an existence was able to design an artificial Dao and spread it to others before they reached Universal Hegemony.
But who in history could design a Dao before they even achieved the rank of a Universe? It was an impossibility as Noah was finally coming across these unique Marks that were the way to advance forward from the Universal Realm of a single Universe...and into the Universal Filament Realm of multiple Universes!
This Universal Filament Realm where an existence had multiple Universes in their Origins...this was the stage where existences were titled Antiquities.
As for these Marks of Antiquity that had began to fall onto Noah's Origin after he reached the Universal Realm? Their details flowed before existence eyes freely!
{Mark of Antiquity} :: The convergence of a unique authority in the form of a mark that can be branded onto the Galaxies within one's Origin. The marks can be collected when an existence of sufficient power influences a large number of existences, with their collection only increasing when one influences entire Universes...or even Cosmos.. Every Galaxy branded with a Mark of Anriquity undergoes evolution to become a Dao Galaxy, where one can designate a specific Dao into it. Unique enhancements and boosts are given to the Daos occupying a myriad of Dao Galaxies. To proceed from a single Universe and have the possibility of birthing a cluster of Universes, one must transform all the Galaxies within their Origin into Dao Galaxies…
…!
Ancient Marks of power that one only obtained after they reached a sufficient level of power and they influenced a large number of existences!
Noah could feel tens of thousands of these golden crimson Marks of Antiquity descending onto him as he had the entire Sublunary Plane of the Chaotic Universe under his influence- this actions actually giving him a few hundred thousand Marks of Antiquity, and they were still flowing into him at this moment.
If he wanted to proceed towards the next realm where he would be titled an Antiquity, he had to amass 100 Billion Marks of Antiquity to brand his 100 Billion Galaxies within his Universe...and only then could another Universe be born as he stepped on the path of a Universal Filament.
That was the stage ahead.
That was what someone like Love wanted to do!
But it was truly hard to amass a large number of Marks of Antiquity unless one influenced multiple Universes and had them under their rule- and it was why many Hegemonies had not been able to advance forward in the chaotic Universe.
'They barely control regions of this single Universe, so how can they proceed forward?' Noah had a smile as he thought about such a thing, thinking of his own methods of obtaining Marks of Antiquity to reach the next stage.
There was another way to obtain them...and that relied on powerful and unique treasures that very few would even know existed or have the chance chance lay their hands on.
A treasure such as this...was something that the Great Usurper got his hands on!
It was also what Noah used to entice the Hegemony of Love to work with him these past days- the Treasure that he showed her that was the pulsing multicolored heart!
'But getting it is the problem. It is in another Apocalyptic Dimension as after I obtain another portion of his Legacy from this current Apocalypse of Time Dimension...we will have to head there.'
The Treasure that lay in a whole different Dimension! Noah was actually looking forward to it as after achieving the Universal Hegemony Rank, he could move across Dimensions with ease as he now had even more possibilities.
THRUM!
He clenched his hands as he felt his overpowering strength and the Marks of Antiquity that continued to wash over him and enter his Origin, his figure turning around to gaze upon Love.
The Annihilatory Observer- Morrin, also turned his abyssal three pairs of eyes towards her as her figure seemingly trembled, but her eyes were firm as she turned them towards Noah and spoke out calmly.
"What now? When do we head for the Treasure that will ensure Antiquity?"
Even though she was faced with a Universal Rank Rift Boss and an existence that had just entered this rank through terrifying means, Live wasn't thrown to fear as she had her Dao of Love still remind her that the man before her would not reap her life or go back on his word!
If there was anything she believed, it was the power of her own designed Dao as such a belief caused Noah to smile.
"Since we are already in this Apocalyptic Dimension where a Part of the Legacy of the Great Usurper lays, we will grab that first before we go searching for that glorious multicolored heart that can even cause a Universal War- if not a Cosmic War to break out if anybody knew of its existence."
THRUM!
His words caused Love's heart to skip a beat as she nodded, Noah patting the scaly figure of Morrin as his eyes turned to gaze at the depths of the Dimension they were in.
There, another Legacy awaited him!
