CHAPTER 1158 - A GLORIOUS INTRODUCTION! I

In the Infinite Cosmos floating silently in the Ruination Sea.

Within the Novus Universe, the Oathkeeper was standing on a planet within a Galaxy that was designated as one to cultivate Primordial Apples, this entire galaxy suffusing with Primordial Dao Essence throughout!

He was currently in the fields of this planet that held the tall trees shining gold and white and bearing these fruits, plucking them one by one as he passed the field of golden white trees and came towards a clearing where two figures could be seen. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

One was the miniaturized form of the Great Old Nazzagath that was normally far larger than a planet, this Chthonian currently floating off the earth silently in his form of a star as beside him...the imprisoned figure of the Goliath of the Primordial Cosmos could be seen!

Only half of his body had been released from the circular prison of Primordial Essence that the Oathkeeper initially put him in, his gaze silently on Oathkeeper as he came beside them with a handful of Primordial apples.

The look on the golden winged Antiquity was full of emotion as he looked at the two other oldest beings of the Primordial Cosmos, his voice stretching out slowly!

"Choices...we all make bad ones every now and then, I just never thought someone as experienced as you would do what you did."

His voice was melancholic as he bit down on the Dao Fruits before him, the Great Old Nazzagath sighing as he partook in the Fruits as well- the oldest beings within the Cosmos being together as they looked for the direction of their lives!

Oathkeeper had a faraway look as he gazed upwards and looked towards the Ruination Sea outside, thinking of the being traversing it as he spoke out slowly.

"The Antiquity of Mana actually left me with all the leeway on what happens to you, you know? He even said that without the actions that you and Chronos took, he wouldn't be where he was today. He wanted me to pass along the thanks."

RUMBLE!

The body of the Goliath shook at such words as a period of silence descended.

It wasn't until a minute later that this existence opened his mouth for the first time since his imprisonment!

"Yes. Choices will always unfold paths none of us thought possible. I don't know where this path will lead for me...but I am curious on what path that existence is going towards."

…!

The black hole on this being's head swirled magnificently as he also gazed out into the vast Ruination Sea, wondering what Noah's path had brought him to now!

The answer to this thought was complex and simple at the same time, Noah having found another Cosmos and actually battling a Primordial Beast at this time in a shocking fashion.

In the middle of this battle, the appearance of a shocking wheel filled with ancientness and majesty caused a milky white layer to appear in the crimson seas!

It swirled behind Noah majestically, this wheel seemingly made up of innumerable primordial runes that weaved together and turned like the gears on a clock. As Noah's figure was descending down with his right hand shining with gorgeous colors, this wheel behind him…began to spin.

BZZZT!

The moment that the wheel began to spin, the Primordial Beast felt a stifling sensation lock onto it as razor-sharp Primordial Essence wrapped around its skin and began to constrict!

But it wasn't just Primordial Essence.

Hidden within it all was another awe-inspiring Cosmic Dao…Extinction acting to support Primordial Essence as they created for a fantastical phenomenon.

"ROAAR!"

A shocked loud bellow was released when it felt the opposing Primordial Essence crush the ruination essence protecting it, and even more so as when the wheel continued to turn…the sense of constriction and suffocation the beast received from the Primordial Dao only became more and more terrifying.

This was the single skill termed [Primordial Wheel of Extinction] that Noah had designed among others when he was floating for days in the Ruination Sea and had nothing but time in his hands. A skill stemming from the skill tree that Noah ridiculously termed…[Cosmic Dao Integrations and Combinations]!

A skill tree he designed as a preliminary test for the future, one that would allow him to test the possibilities of combining and fusing daos to see if he could sense how to put them all together to form a Nomological Edict!

Since he hadn't been able to do such a thing this whole time, he was beginning slowly with Daos to see what the effects of it would be. The result…was stupendous.

[Cosmic Dao Integrations and Combinations] :: A mere testing skill tree that observes the effects of combinations of different Dao Essences. Whether the combinations work or not, the effects are bound to be destructive. Abilities include [Universe of Turbidity](5/5), [Primordial Wheel of Extinction](5/5), [Endless Rays of Time](5/5), and [Compatibility](5/5). Cost of Skill Creation: 300 Billion Skill Points.

[Universe of Turbidity](5/5) :: The daos mixed within are too many, giving birth to a turbid and unstable compressed Universe. Within this Turbid Universe are the unstable essences of Ruination, Primordial, Conquest,? Extinction, Chronos, and Reincarnation. The combination of daos is too unstable as once cast, one should run far, far away. Only the caster is exempted from the deleterious effects of this ability. To cast this skill, the sacrifice of a normal Universe from one's Origin is required.

[Primordial Wheel of Extinction](5/5) :: An ability that conjures a runic wheel that utilizes the Primordial Essence and the essence of Extinction. The wheel will continue to turn as long as it is not broken, its selected target being constantly compressed and suffocated by the essence of the two Daos until death.

[Endless Rays of Time](5/5) :: An area of effect ability that utilizes the Dao essence of Chronos, Reincarnation, Space-time, and Vitality, along with the laws of Life and Death to bring to fruition scorching rays that tear apart time itself wherever they cross. Enemies hit by the Rays of Time experience Body and Soul Degradation, Instantaneous Necrosis, -100,000% Movement and Attack Speed, and -100,000% Reduction to Physical, Daos, and Laws Resistance.? Once the ability activates, it continues to rain down the rays of time until it is deactivated.

[Compatibility](5/5) :: A Passive ability that allows for the successful combination casts of different daos without negative feedback on the caster's origin, along with the ability to feel the compatibility of utilized Daos.

A stellar skill tree that Noah made to take the first steps towards Nomological Edicts was made!
