For Noah, a lot could change in a matter of days!
Like even at this instance, he was only wondering of the best possible paths forward as there were many.
On his side, he could make a crucial choice right now that he was still affirming with his understanding in Destiny among many others.
He had 30 Grotto Panaceas on hand as they were enough to have him complete his first Dimensional Layer...or grant him 6 more Ultima Strata Automatons!
For him, he only had the question of efficiency in his mind as when he pondered on what he could do, the factor to look at was whether he would attain Ultima Strata power after establishing his first Dimensional Layer.
And the answer was no, with the completion of the Dream Dimensional Reality putting him close to this stage, but not entirely there! It seemed that halfway up the second Dimensional Layer or its completion would be equivalent to the Ultima Strata Stage!
In terms of efficiency, so long as Noah took the Ultima Strata Stage, he could deploy his True Sanguine Clones that would exceed any Automatons of the same stage.
But if he could control 6 more Ultima Strata Automatons...he could deploy them across the Dimensions he was moving in to also attain even more loot!
A game of choices came once more as Noah's eyes flashed powerfully.
There was still loot coming in and there were still preparations to be made.
Noah would continue to devour the lesser False Grotto Nacres, Liquified Soul Seas, and Physique Refining Pearls to still build up his Dimensional Layer while also elevating Dream Automatons to the Alpha Strata stage just to have them ready in case he took another path.
At the same time, he gazed at Seeds of Nature that contained wisps of multiple Natural Laws as well as the Dictum Emperor that he was infusing with wisps of only the Essence of Polarity.
He gazed at
He had time in all these plans as after getting more information from destiny and his Clones moving across Dimensions, he could make a choice soon enough!

In a majority of the Dimensions he was moving in, there was Conquest and bloodshed.
And then there was Avalon.
Being led by a Prince of the 12 Domains of Avalon, there was actually little action as this being was proficient in what he did- getting Noah across the domain of the Enchantress Morgana and closer to his Father's domain so they could get even closer to the Sword of Avalon!
The environment always made Noah light up his inner self that loved the wonders he saw as comparing the vast stretching golden sandy landscapes of the Dream Dimension, the hellish magma pillars of flames rising up in the crimson skies of the Apollyon Dimension, and then there were the beautiful floating islands released purple waterfalls of essence as far as the eye could see in the Avalon Dimension.
It felt like a dream as he moved to accomplish his aims, the scenes of Avalon passing by quickly as Lancelot led Noah across the Domains easily until they neared a massive floating island that could be seen many light years away- an island the size of hundreds of Realities out together.
"One of the 12 Domains of Avalon, the Dragon Knight's Sanctum- and the one my father reigns over. So long as Enchantress Morgana's forces aren't actively moving about here, we should be free to get through. So long as I can get the support of my father, I will at least be able to grant you a chance to near the Sword of Avalon."
The purple hair on Ezekiel waves in the beautiful hues of the skies they floated on as Noah nodded while locking his gaze onto Ezekiel.
"Then, let's make the job even easier. Let me have a few drops of your Blood."
"...huh?"
The burly and handsome Ezekiel/Lancelot blinked at Noah's request, but seeing Noah's serious expression, he used his sword to decisively cut open his left hand as streams of gorgeous crimson gold blood filled with purple hues came out and surged towards Noah who...reached out and absorbed it through his fingers!
He...couldn't start Dual Cultivating with Lancelot to attain the Bloodlines and Physiques of a Dimensional Royalty, but he could just take the blood of this being to utilize Hematopoietic Progenitor on to duplicate the Bloodline of an Avalonian Royalty.
This would make the current path they were on even smoother as for the Avalon Dimension...Noah had yet to see any blood on his path towards the Sword of Avalon!
But this….was very different for the Apollyon Dimension.
In the Rosebud Domain, at the very core of it where the Incubus Emperor was having a feast with his people.
His Legions were mobilized and surrounding everything nearby as the Commanders on the highest golden platforms where the celebration was taking place…the vast majority of them lay eradicated as at this moment, the terrifying Dream Automaton was sinking its sharp spearlike limbs into the body of this powerful existence.
"Huk…" Crimson gold blood sputtered out of the mouth of this being as his Aspects of Existence were lulled to the realm of Dreams, his robust foundation and powerful might taken down in a way he could have never imagined, by a being he never thought of nor knew!
He was known to be on the weaker side of the Ultima Strata Rulers as due to this, he had even sacrificed his daughter to the Mad Orc Daemon Commander to avoid battle as when he faced a Dream Automaton equipped with the Decretum of Dreams and holding unique abilities that didn't have even half of their might shown...what could he do?
It was a creature whose very title stated that it was an Overpowered Construct!
Its Destiny and Fate had nothing to discern from as it was merely a Construct of the Quintessential Kainos Emperor as the Incubus Emperor Eranelon...he could do nothing against such a monster.
