A Daolord!
An existence that had assimilated Ruination and the Primordial Dao, and then had then begun to deconstruct and reconstruct daos to brand them to their bodies and soul!
A Daolord from the Primordial Empire had actually arrived, his face full of smiles as nobody took his stature as a mere kid seriously.
The five that were standing before Noah actually bowed towards this being as they called out reverently.
"Daolord Azazel."
The five Antiquities treated this existence with much respect as he nodded lightly, looking towards Noah and King Augustus as he spoke with a beaming smile.
"So, are we sticking with the story that this Daolord here is someone from your Indigo Cosmos? All of this is for a Primordial Heart mind you, something that even stronger Daolords than me covet- something that even my Family Head would want to get his hands on. Are you all sure you can keep it after your Cosmos joins the Primordial Empire with the regulations you will fall under?"
THRUM!
His face was all smiles, but his words were full of threats and terrifying pressure, Noah's eyes gazing at this being coldly as [Eyes of Truth] only granted his name. The Runic Dao Lines running across half of his body showed off immense power, making Noah calculate how a battle with such a being would play out.
But against his battle intent, he would learn more about the terrifying Bastion of Reality that this Aegon had built before he began conflicts. After he learned everything about them…he wouldn't mind giving them a good beating and wiping the arrogant smiles off their faces!
"Daolord Osmont has the Indigo Cosmos as his home as much as I do. If there is nothing else, we will be preparing for the movement of our Cosmos as we won't delay Daolord Azazel any longer."
The strong voice of King Augustus replied calmly even at this time, the vibrant light on Noah's hands dying down as his stern expression was wiped away and replaced by a smile. The opposing Daolord matched his eyes as he nodded with shining eyes, his voice stretching out as he came to float a few inches from Noah.
"Daolord…Osmont, is it?" With eyes full of childish mocking and ridicule, Azazel came before Noah with his power flaring out madly, Noah nodding towards him as he replied with a smile.
"Osmont. It is a name that I promise you will remember!"
RUMBLE!
As if thunder had smashed down, the bright smile on the face of Azazel slowly faded as he nodded, waving his hand to the 5 Antiquities behind him as they began to turn into streaks of light and fade away. Azazel himself began to flicker with light as he spoke out.
"We eagerly await your entrance into the Primordial Empire, Osmont. The Great Conqueror has already been notified of this Cosmos as it should be taken away in the next day or two. Be ready."
WAA!
With these words, this being disappeared as the terrifying pressure in the surroundings faded away! King Augustus stared at the scene with a somber gaze as he then turned his eyes towards the vast Cosmos behind him, as well as the innumerable faces that depended on him!
—
Across the vast sea of Ruination, 6 figures were shooting forward to a certain location with cold faces. Daolord Azazel was in the lead as one of the 5 Antiquities behind him spoke out slowly.
"Daolord…we have always made moves in the dark before, why don't we hiddenly return to that Indigo Cosmos and rip apart their rulers, taking the Primordial Heart even before they join the Empire?"
…!
A cruel set of words reverberated out as the childish face of Azazel merely shook, his reply coming after!
"Anything that our Great Emperor will touch in a few days, we don't take any actions towards it. After they become part of the Empire and things settle down, it won't be a problem to call for Writ of Challenge against them as they will lose the rights to their Cosmos and all the treasures they have. Even moving in the dark…we can think of it then."
His words were extremely commanding as the Antiquity that just spoke nodded, a sharp light crossing the eyes of Daolord Azazel as he continued to think about the one known as Daolord Osmont. When he thought of this being…he had a prickly feeling that told him not to make a move just now!
Even though the being seemed to have fewer Runic Dao Lines than him, there was something that made him not take any risk and silence everyone in the surroundings for a Primordial Heart.
He didn't know what it was, but as someone that had lived for millions of years, his senses were very sharp!
'I'll have to let the Family Head know. A Primordial Heart is too precious to be left in the hands of bumpkins…'
SHAA!
Their figures tore through the void of Ruination as they made their way back to a grand location in the vast Primordial Seas. As they did this, they had no knowledge that a fight light years away from them, a set of red eyes were watching them calmly.
These eyes were as large as Galaxies, making one wonder just what terrifying size the existence holding the eyes boasted! Such a presence was actually looking at the figures of a Daolord and Antiquities coldly without making a move, none of them being the wiser that they were being watched!
In this vast Ruination Sea, there wasn't just the Primordial Empire that boasted to be the Bastion of Reality…there were also other forces that very few knew about! Existences far more horrifying than what most believed, existences that would terrify Hegemonies and Antiquities alike if they ever came to light.
The existence currently watching in the darkness was one of them! Its titanic eyes turned its gaze from the figures of Daolord Azazel as it looked towards the Indigo Cosmos, locking onto the figure of Noah that was talking with King Augustus, as well as the Cosmos behind them.
Its eyes flashed coldly as this existence remained still, merely continuing to watch in the folds of the Ruination Sea silently!
