CHAPTER 980 - LIKE HEGEMONIES...I MUST INFLUENCE THE COSMOS! II

Marks of Antiquity!

Something that only came by when Hegemonies birthed a Dao that went on to affect an entire Universe, with their rate of formation ranging based on what extent of an influence the Dao of the Hegemony provided to the targeted Universe.

Valentina had her Dao of Summoning that she spread throughout the Animus Universe, but the extent of its effect on the beings within the universe wasn't too massive as while she regularly received Marks of Antiquity from them, the rate of their formation was only enough for her to collect a bit over 1 million Marks after so many years!

Yet Noah birthed a Dao that affected vast numbers of beings and went on to affect them at an extremely deep level as the course of their lives were forever changed based on the strength they could borrow from him.

This caused for him to attain over 20 million Marks of Ruination in just days! Days!

What a vast gulf of power! It was so drastic that Noah chose to spare Valentina's poor heart from the shock of seeing him collect 23 times the amount of Marks she had collected in just days, choosing to preserve the heart of this Hegemony of Summoning!

Now...it was these Marks of Antiquity that allowed for him to form Dao Galaxies- it was these Marks that showed the way towards the Universal Realm.

It was something nobody but Noah could do, because there had not been a single being in history that could birth a Dao while not even being a Universal Hegemony to begin with. All Paragons were limited to a certain amount of connections a day for their Galaxies as if they didn't have enough Universal Fortune and Destiny, they would find themselves facing death after 1 million years as they never achieve the Realm of a Universe!

Yet Noah could bypass all of this as all he had to do...was have enough Dao Galaxies to do exactly what he just did- form connections instantaneously with the Dao Galaxies and normal Galaxies as all he needed for this was Marks of Antiquity.

He just needed 50 Billion Marks of Antiquity to be capable of forming 50 Billion Dao Galaxies...and he could then form connections to his remaining normal 50 Billion Galaxies as the goal of birthing a Universal Seed would be achieved!

The only problem was collecting such a large amount of Marks of Antiquity! Even after affecting a large number of beings in the Dark Universe and the recent Fealty being sworn by Billions of some the most powerful beings in the Animus Universe, he had only collected 23 million Marks of Antiquity.

For him to obtain more…

RUMBLE!

An outlandish thought appeared in Noah's mind as he thought of the method to obtain more Marks of Antiquity, and it was something that the recent Hegemonies he had contact with were already doing!

'For me to obtain billions of Marks of Antiquity...I have to be like all of these Hegemonies and go on to influence many Universes…!'

WAA!

His eyes were hazy as with the light of Destiny around him, he saw himself descending unto places like the Necrotic Universe, the Microbial Universe, the Liberated Universe...and many more of the Universes that he could instantly teleport to with the use of his Cosmic Treasure as he went on to use his Paragon level strength to dominate them and spread his influence!

This thought and idea solidified so quickly that he almost felt like he could see it right in front of him!

'Good! But first…this Universal War…'

His eyes were bright with ideas as a path opened up in front of him, his consciousness going back to the ongoing Universal War in the Animus Universe.

There, his Primordial Clone that had its aura continuing to rise up crazily was facing over 10 Paragons of the Supreme Bloodline Races all by himself!

---

War.

To Klaus, war never changed!

Since he chose to betray Tiamat 100,000 years ago, he knew he was not just putting himself into a never ending war, but all of his Bloodline and all the Supreme Bloodlines of the Animus Universe.

He knew that with this decision...he would betray his oldest friends and cause much bloodshed, but he did it as he believed in absolute power. The first war was won as Tiamat and many others fell, his Nine-Tailed Fox Race rising to the very top of the pyramid as his Universal Fortune greatly increased, where he saw that he now stood a chance of possibly achieving a Universal Seed as long as he kept his position.

Yet...yet!!!

BOOOM!

Tiamat had returned.

ROAAAR!

With power even more overbearing than her peak strength all those years ago, she came back as she now matched him and even seemed to be overpowering him!

"How...how…?!"

The Progenitor of the Nine-Tailed Fox Race, Klaus, bellowed out as he evaded the grand plasma blasts filled with the essence of Destruction and the Cosmic Dao of Annihilation from the heads of the Ten Headed Dragon he never thought he would see again.

He was questioning how it all came to this, and which being could be responsible for bringing this development to fruition!

Looking at such power and majesty that he felt he could never achieve, envy and wrath welled up in his heart as his eyes blazed while locking with the Ten Headed Dragon in front of him.

"Just what monstrosity did you attach yourself to, your multi-headed lizard!"

WAA!

Tiamat's eyes released beams of light at this insult, her aura raging upwards as her wings unfurled gloriously, glancing at her betrayer with utter hatred as she spoke out while casting a skill.

"A being that your entire disappointing life could never begin to match even a strand of his hair! Someone of true power that you will only ever look up to!"

RUMBLE!

[Wrath of the Annihilatory Dragon Queen]

…!

The chaotic void that was filled with darkness and the occasional flash of light felt like it came to stop.

Behind Tiamat, a hazy illusory image of a Ten Headed Dragon made up of the immense essence of Annihilation formed, its gaze chillingly cold as it didn't just lock onto Klaus...but all the enemy Races nearby!

Its unfurled wings trembled as the jaws of the many heads opened, an ocean's worth of the essence of Annihilation bubbling to be released as a Dragon's Breath, the wrath of the Dragon Queen descending down in waves as they threatened to drown all enemies!
