Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse

The establishment of relations between two worlds was going at an accelerated pace as individuals from the Beast World and Noah's homeworld worked in conjunction to increase their knowledge and power.

There was a smooth transition as the governments and ruling parties of the two worlds put aside their differences to work together for a greater goal. Of course, it was not all smooth sailing and there were still a few hiccups here and there, but the majority of things remained in a positive direction.

It was much easier to keep people in line when you had a few specific people much more powerful than them to use force if needed. Power was the only thing that was respected at this moment in time, as it was what was required in order for everyone to continue living in peace.

There were still many crooked and nasty people in the two worlds, but they did not find themselves in the highest positions of power in this new advancing era. Thus, the two worlds continued their sharing of knowledge and trading of skill books, items, and cores as they advanced their power.

Things became even more hectic a few days ago as the wills of the worlds relayed the message that they would soon be actively moving. This came as a shock to even the highest echelons of strength in the Beast World as the three remaining mythical beasts found a hard task placed on their shoulders.

They knew the strength their enemies held, but they trusted the world they were born in even more. Even though there was some slight hesitation, they followed the directions while knowing their own homes would not lead them to destruction.

In the Frozen Kingdom, the Dark Sword, Kazuhiko was moving busily as he tried to form a party of powerful beast girls unsuccessfully. He was only able to find one fox eared girl who worked as a mercenary, with the rest of the people who offered to help him being burly human mercenaries or beastmen that wanted to serve their new Queen as best as they could.

The main goal in his mind was still clear though, and it was the acquisitions of a Spiritual Land. He learned of the secrets and intricacies from Noah, and his goal of obtaining a Spiritual Land for himself was achieved a week after his arrival in the frozen kingdom.

There were still two 'Nests' in the surroundings of the Frozen Kingdom that were actually Spiritual Lands without owners. Kazuhiko targeted one of these Nests as he used the knowledge Noah gave him to quickly take down an epic ranked beast and become a contender for the Trial of Supremacy of the Spiritual Land. The process thereafter was not too complicated as all he had to do was to face a similar battle as Noah where he had to fight multiple beasts and show that he was unrivaled in the epic rank.

Kazuhiko was one of the human beings that received special attention from the Planetary Core in Noah's homeworld, and he had his own boosted strength that allowed him to exhibit strength much higher than average when in the same rank.

In a bit over a week, it marked the second human being in history to receive ownership of a Spiritual Sand. A unique skill similar to the one that Noah received had appeared under Kazuhiko's attribute panel, although he would not be able to use it as effectively as Noah.

He had a huge headache as he looked at the number of energy that was required just to do the simplest of things. As for the way to upgrade the rank of the spiritual land, well he would call upon Noah when the time comes to get some help.

Many more events were occurring all over the beast world as the incoming humans and beasts worked together to increase their strength.

Steel Mikhail was advancing in the Mythical Kingdoms with the help of the [Imperial Phoenix]. He was able to achieve ownership of his own Spiritual Land in a similar time frame as Kazuhiko.

Not too long after, they received the grandiose gift of legendary cores from Noah who was performing the task of traveling across worlds as if it was nothing. It wouldn't take him even a minute to activate the unique skill, [Spatial Travel], before he arrived in a different world to leave behind cores, skill books, and items.

With the advent of these gifts, their strength that remained stagnant in the Epic rank was able to be propelled forward at a quick pace after the acquisition of their Spiritual Lands, breaking through into the Legendary rank in no time.

As for the three remaining Mythical Beasts, they continued to increase their knowledge of the new system of power that allowed their strength to shoot up explosively by combining the many skills that they had been using over the years.

An even more interesting sight opened itself in the Beast World as its inhabitants normally formed their own skills after years of learning how to manipulate mana in specific ways. This made it so that those who were extremely talented were able to see a new skill appear in their attribute panel out of their own making.

Manipulating mana in complex ways to create a skill was easy to do for lower-ranked skills, but became exponentially harder when trying to create anything Legendary or above.

Many beings in the Beast World shook their heads in exasperation after they found the ease of gaining skills simply by absorbing a [Skill Book] without going through days or months of hard work just to create a single skill, but those at the peak of power thought much differently.

The three remaining Mythical Beasts looked at the ease of this new system of power while also looking back to how they created skills of their own at the stage they were at. If they were to use their skill of manipulating mana to create extremely compatible skills to use in conjunction with [Skill Combination]...a scary thought came when looking at the possibilities of this endeavor.

They had achieved multiple Mythical+ ranked skills and were trying their hardest to raise the proficiency of these skills in order to combine them for the possibility of attaining the Phantasmal rank.

They wanted to raise their strength quickly because the message that their worlds had released to them was very clear. Within the next few weeks, another gate that connected to a foreign world would be created. But this gateway would not lead to a friendly world, this gateway would lead to the enemy they held huge hatred of, this gateway would lead to the Demon World.

Just as the inhabitants of the Demon World were able to establish a connection with the Beast World to send down its Rulers, it served to also build a connection that allowed the Planetary Core of the Beast World to know the location of the Demon World. Through the use of a tremendous amount of essence, recreating the channel that would lead to the Demon World could be done with ease.

To prepare for this possible future, many events were occurring in the background, with a large number of moving pieces. The Planetary Cores of the Beast World and Noah's Homeworld were receiving all the knowledge that Noah came across as he moved in the Lost World of Atlantis.

The possible sequence of future events was planned from here. At this moment in time, one of the more crucial events that was being looked at was the result of the clash between Baal and Atlantis. There was a tremendous amount of confidence that the two worlds had when it came to Noah and the incoming battle between him and the Ruler of the Demon World.

The results of this battle could provide a huge disruption that would give a prime opportunity to attack the Demon World. They would be getting ready to move as soon as the results of the battle were clear, and Noah would lead the way for a glorious charge towards the home of their enemies.

Schemes and plans were put in place as pieces were moved here and there, but would things really go as planned?
