Chapter 1467: A Desperate Mother Sets a Bounty! II
The moment they neared, the two golden statues guarding the golden lit Reality shone with a powerful light as they woke, the auras these statues released seeming even more oppressive than even these existences that were qualified to be Overseers of Prime Realities!
Lifelike expressions appeared on the golden statues as their golden eyes flashed, their voices echoing out.
“State your identity and purpose!”
OOOM!
Waves of power echoed out as the Matriarch stepped forward and spoke with solemness.
“The Matriarch Belladonna and the Right Hand of the Serpent Dragon Emperor of the Nine Poison Valleys!”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
…!
“We are here…to initiate a bounty!”
RUMBLE!
Unseen waves of destiny bloomed out the moment these words were mentioned, the eyes of the two Golden statues releasing rays of light that went on to land onto the bodies of the Matriarch and Sadek as their monotone voices echoed out soon after.
“You are granted a day. Finish your business and leave before 24 hours!”
With a light of unwillingness, Sadek and the Matriarch allowed the golden light to land on their bodies as a terrifying golden rune mark appeared on their hands.
If they violated any rules while entering the Prime Reality before them, this rune mark was enough to even cause Seventh Firmament of Ascendancy experts to despair as they had to abide by the rules set forth!
OOOM!
The two golden statues glowed as an enormous rectangular portal rose behind them, the golden light covering the vast Reality leaving behind a gap as the figures of Sadek and Belladonna turned into streaks of light and entered through this portal.
SHAA!
A glimmer of a spatial light, and they were transported to a brand new location soon after.
Their feet touched the floor that was actually the top of an expansive set of golden stairs that stretched below them endlessly, and in front of them was an enormous shrine that one could find across countless Prime Realities under the control of Primordials.
An erected shrine looking structure that was referred to by many names, the more common one being known as the Primordial Temples!
It was here that the authorities of Primordials were seen residing in the most, the structures of the shrines all being formed similarly as they showed enormous shrines more expansive than any cluster of Cosmos with over a dozen statues raising their hands around it!
Immensely powerful auras could be felt across the vast Primordial Temple as the gazes of the Matriarch and Sadek were solemn, stepping forward into the vast Primordial Temple as within seconds, over 10 Primordials appeared before them with calm gazes and auras of profound authority.
Nearly all of them were in the Fifth Firmament of Ascendancy, with a single Primordial being in the Sixth Firmament as these beings were lower in ranking and power, but they still gazed at the two Seventh Firmament experts before them with derisive gazes and airs of authority as if they were above them!
The leading Primordial stared at the Runic markings on their arms as he smacked his lips and spoke with a smile.
“The Matriarch of the Nine Poison Valleys and the famous Poisoner of Realities grace us with their presence to set a bounty? Just which existence hindered you that you must use our power to try and kill them?”
The tone of speaking was utterly disrespectful as Belladonna merely gritted her teeth as her eyes flashed, waving her hands to release a bundle of sparkling multicolored Crystals releasing fantastical waves of power as she replied.
“We came prepared. As soon as we place the bounty, we shall leave!”
Her words caused the smiles on the Primordial’s faces to deepen as they nodded, talking amongst themselves freely as they turned to walk towards a certain location within the Primordial Temple as Sedak and Belladonna followed.
They kept their gazes forward as they came across many more clusters of powerful Primordials moving around, some gazing at them and talking amongst themselves with other groups not even paying attention to them as they tended to their own affairs!
It was only after a few minutes did they arrive to a certain location after passing the golden laden halls of the Primordial Temple- entering an expansive room that only had a single Primordial within it- an existence at the Seventh Firmament of Ascendancy!
It was an old man with a clean long white beard, his eyes hiding traces of vicissitudes as they opened to gaze at the party of Primordials and two guests.
Behind this old man was a golden wall that was covered with countless words, constantly shifting up and down or disappearing!
The words were actually names if one looked closely- names that were attached to numbers that listed next to them…Soul Crystals!
Soul Crystals.
The major currency across Realities as it was something that every being sought- a condensation of a unique essence that could increase the strength of the soul of the one that absorbed it.
For those wishing to scale the Firmaments of Ascendancy, this was the only thing they cared about and bothered to use as a form of currency!
“What is the name and identity of the being you wish to put on the Primordial Blacklist?”
WAA!
The ancient voice of the old man echoed out calmly as he gazed at Belladonna and Sadek, the former stepping forward as she waved her hands and caused countless illusory scenes displaying Noah’s figure across all angles to appear.
“I know not of his identity, but he is a Primal Titan under the Isles of the Gilded Forge, being protected by Overseer Natalya Rostova! Here is the Blood of my son that this creature killed not too long ago!”
…!
Apart from the countless scenes showing Noah standing behind Natalya and even scenes that came from the memories of Yacucoatl before he died, Belladonna produced a vial of blood that was her son’s as it floated towards the old man whose wrinkled eyes fluttered!
“Not providing even a name means I have to put in more work, this will cost extra.”
His tone was undeniable as Belladonna was unruffled, waving her hands as an even larger cluster of resplendent Crystals appeared appeared and floated forward.
These were Soul Crystals that if any common Firmament of Ascendancy expert devoured, the strength of their soul would be elevated greatly as they would be able to exceed the limits of their souls and be able to impose more Daos and Edicts onto themselves!
“So long as he can be found and placed on the Primordial Blacklist, the price does not matter!”
Belladonna’s words were filled with venom as she spoke, the eyes of the old Primordial flashing as he grabbed the vial containing Yacucoatl’s blood while staring at the hazy scenes before this being’s death that were shown on the illusory screens Belladonna conjured.
Uniquely, they could see Noah with his Ascendancy Halo in these images- but it didn’t show the crimson color with its golden bands as it actually seemed plain white!
“The strings of Karma and Destiny are heavy as with the blood of the killed and the images of the killer, it is easy to find the identity of such a weak existence and place them on the Blacklist.”
The old Primordial spoke with surety as his body instantly released a burst of power, the aura of an Edict that was most definitely above Quasi-Insuperable or even Insuperable rising from him as his eyes reflected the countless images of Noah while the blood of Yacucoatl burned!
Within mere seconds, waves of fortune and destiny were burnt as even a portion of the Essence of Reality leaked from the old Primordial!
“Hmm?” His face only changed briefly as he seemingly faced a small obstacle, but this faded away within a second as his eyes became painted gold and his voice rose out in a monotone fashion.
“Noah Osmont of the Isles of the Gilded Forge…his name shall be added to the Primordial Blacklist!”
RUMBLE!
