Dimensions different from one's own!
Planes of existence that seemed to mirror one's own, but they were also different!
"In the past, there used to be an Original Timeline that continued forth endlessly, but the actions of the Primordials changed this. They caused infinite branches of time to separate from the Original, gaining access to an untold number of Cosmos."
"Parallel worlds, Multiverses, Cosmos, Dimensions- call them what you wish! But these beings actually carried out actions that made it possible for them to gain access to all of this and traverse them as they wished."
The tone of the Antiquity had turned extremely somber as in the void of the Abyssal Universe, Noah's eyes shone brightly as he took in this information!
"But with such an unnatural action occurring and causing the birth of Multiverses, Cosmos, and Dimensions…something unnatural formed in response to it!"
Yes!
For every action, there was an equal and opposite reaction!
The actions of the Primordials that caused the Original Timeline to fracture into countless ones also caused the birth of the Primordial Beasts- existences that moved for the sole purpose of Devouring Universes and Cosmos across different Dimensions.
"This is the true nature of Primordial Beasts! They only came to be for the sole purpose of undoing what the Primordials did- to bring to a stop the unraveling of the Original Timeline as their goal is to devour all Parallel Dimensions and return things to how they once were."
RUMBLE!
Noah's mind shook as he listened to such shocking truths, his Destiny and Fortune churning as he assimilated it all in his mind!
Multiverses! Parallel timelines! Concepts of extreme depth descended unto him all at once as he organized it all neatly to the most important details.
"The Primordial Beasts are actually a force of nature to return things to how they once were, but now the Primordials had to fight and eradicate them to keep the vast numbers of branching realities. But how could they win against such enemies?!"
"As long as branching realities and timelines existed, so would the Primordial Beasts! They could not be fully eradicated as all the Primordial could do was to maintain the current state of affairs and reduce the numbers of Primordial Beasts as much as possible."
"It is something that has put all of us in a constant state of war, where vast numbers of timelines and realities could be eradicated as long as the Primordial Beasts swallowed all of its Cosmos!"
A constant state of war!
War against forces of nature that just wanted to return things to how they were.
These were the Primordial Beasts.
This was the true nature of Primordials.
Noah had a somber expression as he listened to all this, raising his head thoughtfully as he tried to peer through the folds of space around him.
Vast numbers of realities apart from his own. Timelines he didn't even know about!
When he got to such a point, he thought about the Dao of Chronos and Reincarnation that Chronos used, his eyes shining brightly as he spoke out for the first time in a while thereafter.
"Your descent into the Primordial Cosmos was you reaching across into another reality…another Dimension!"
"…Yes. Through the unique Dao of Reincarnation that a Hegemony within this Cosmos utilized and my own unique capabilities, I am able to traverse across Dimensions and stretch my might into multiple Realities! I am capable of doing things that only Primordials are capable of doing!"
…!
Noah revealed an awed expression as he couldn't help but ask.
"How…?"
The question was so blatant and abrupt as in another dimension, the Antiquity shook his head incredulously as he replied simply.
"Something from a Legacy I obtained some time ago. But you are missing the point right now!"
RUMBLE!
"All of this aside, everything goes back to the Primordials needed to reduce the number of Primordial Beasts…and that is where existences like you…and existences like me come in."
"Tools. Weapons. Champions. Beings that they try to raise in every Dimensional reality to make sure that as few timelines as possible are destroyed and rejoin the Original Timeline. Existences with such power and might that exceed common sense. Existences like us."
"…"
Silence descended onto the surroundings after such a statement, Noah nor the Antiquity speaking as the atmosphere turned extremely oppressive.
Off to the side, Oathkeeper was watching Noah carefully, ready to reinforce him with whatever problem they were facing as this being simply waited!
It was only after a few seconds passed did the voice of the Antiquity enter Noah's mind again.
"Many of them share names or similarities as a few renowned and extremely powerful Primordials are incharge of this task, these beings having laughs as they influence things and have these tools named similar to themselves- the names like Aegon, Ezekiel, Noah, and a few more that I've come across in multiple Dimensions appearing."
…!
Shocking truth after shocking truth descended onto Noah's mind as he was still working on what to make of it all!
Amidst all of this, the Antiquity was continuing to freely talk about more of such information as it made him extremely curious of this being.
"What a cosmic joke. When I transmigrated, I was so extremely naive that I-"
THRUM!
Amidst the soliloquy of the Antiquity, the clone of Noah currently surrounded by three Blue Slimes vibrated with a gorgeous array of light, his body becoming suffused with multicolored auras as on his chest, one could see a vibrant Universe filled to the brim with Dao Galaxies…as well as the formation of a second Universe that seemed to be just in its beginning stages!"
…!
It was the sign of Antiquity!
100% conversion of a being's Universe into Dao Galaxies, becoming capable of birthing a second Universe as one reached a stage of power others would only ever dream of!
At this moment, the intense aura of Antiquity began to emanate from Noah, this aura being something even normal Antiquities would not be able to release as it seemed somewhat special.
"…"
The consciousness of the Antiquity seemed flabbergasted at this moment as his voice rang out slowly.
"Did you…did you really just break into Antiquity in the middle of all this?"
An incredulous expression was on the Antiquity's face across Dimensions as in the Abyssal Universe, Oathkeeper was also looking towards Noah's clone in utter stupor!
But at this time, the clone raised his head while adjusting to the new aura, waving his hands nonchalantly as he spoke in a domineering tone.
"It's merely just breaking into the Universal Filament Realm and becoming an Antiquity, nothing much. Let's continue…"
RUMBLE!
