Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse

2449 True Death! II

A dreadful sensation!

Something that utterly rejected reality, and because Noah was someone who expanded upon reality and altered it in fantastical ways…it seemed entirely opposed to him.

It passed through the gaps between the essence of the Indefatigable Dynamis of Extremity and entered Noah's Aspects of Existence as for some portions of what made him…he couldn't feel them!

A sense of danger came, but it didn't fully settle in as the essence of the Indefatigable Dynamis of Extremity was still present.

With it, he knew that he could push away this dreadful feeling of nothingness at any point in time.

He…could not obtain what he wanted this way!

He wanted to be able to withstand the region that was outside the scope of space, time, and reality without relying on a single essence.

To obtain such a thing, it would be an impossibility when he had something he could always fall back on!

The Indefatigable Dynamis of Extremity was a safety net.

So long as he had access to it and could call upon it, he knew that he would always be okay.

But…to achieve the transformation he sought, he had to fully bask in nothingness without this safety net behind him!

He knew in his heart that this was the only way new possibilities would open.

The utilization of clones was meaningless as that was another safety net. It had to be his main body that took this risk.

But…this was too much of a risk!

If things went according to plan, then he would attain something grand.

But in the case he failed…even if he was connected to the Infinite Plane as he wouldn't perish entirely unless this whole massive Plane was destroyed, his main body would still face True Death brought about with nothingness in this region that denied the very workings of Reality on their target!

"..."

THUMP!

He could feel the beat of his heart.

He could feel every breath he took.

He could feel the gaps he formed in the essence of the Indefatigable Dynamis of Extremity and the endless waves of nothingness permeating through.

Everybody feared death.

He was no exception!

An unfair death under the hands of someone much, much stronger than him was one of the reasons Noah strived to be as powerful as he could be!

At this moment, Noah tried to let go of this fear.

The results were unknown since he had the ultimate backing of the Infinite Plane, but the possibility of True Death increased greatly at this moment as he…increased the gaps of the essence of the Indefatigable Dynamis of Extremity.

Threads of his soul were against this heavy risk as they held on to the strands of the essence of the Indefatigable Dynamis of Extremity.

These parts of him said to simply wait until after Apexification. They proposed that this risk did not need to be taken!

These were the threads with a sliver of fear of the Unknown.

Noah steeled his heart and slowly crushed these threads of fear.

More and more gaps appeared as he recalled the pristine essence of an Absolute Seed of Extremity, pushing its grandeur back into the depths of his soul as he was about to cut off the connection that allowed him to call upon this essence!

Similar to what Phos and the others had gone through when the state of nothingness entered their Aspects of Existence, he wouldn't be able to call upon any of his sources of essence.

He wouldn't be able to feel his Origin or even the limbs on his body!

He would be subjugated to the endlessness of nothingness as he wouldn't even know if seconds or years passed.

THUMP!

The beat of his heart was clear as the recalled essence had a glimpse of it still remaining.

Taking the risk of such a dangerous endeavor was still something in the back of Noah's mind as threads of his soul with slivers of fear still remained, but at this moment…

OOOOH!

The tyrannical essence at the depths of his body rose, Quintessence shining brilliantly as it blared with magnificence and knocked down the last domino!

It blared as it seemed to scream- this Lineage shall have no fear!

Quintessence rose to complete this deadly choice as the connection that allowed Noah to pull the essence of the Indefatigable Dynamis of Extremity was entirely cut, immense darkness flooding into his Body, Origin, and Soul!

"..."

A dreadful sensation- or truly a lack of sensation settled in.

The pristine waves of essence he was always familiar with…he couldn't feel them anymore.

Quintessence that had just risen to cut off the last safety net…was nowhere to be found.

His profound Origin with the First and Second Planes of Extremity!

His robust body that was etched like a celestial treasure impervious to the Essences of many Boundaries!

None of it could be felt as he seemed to be swirling in Endless darkness.

His soul was as robust and as strong as ever, feeling the dangers of the lack of Reality around him as he knew if he allowed it to permeate into his soul…that would be it.

True Death!

"..."

The heavy beat of his Heart or the Quintessential Breaths he took could not be felt.

Mind you, his Aspects of Existence should have been undergoing a transformation to establish his Unrecorded Aeonic Extremity Foundation after he swallowed the Crimson Extremity Panacea!

His soul was burning brightly against the feeling of nothingness even though it seemed to be dissociated from his body and soul.

But Noah knew this sensation was false.

His Aeonic Soul was fully integrated with his Aspects of Existence as his first task was to find them and sense them again.

When he did this, it meant that he had successfully overcome one ordeal of this region that denied reality itself for its target!

That was the first step.

Thereafter, his Aspects of Existence had to be able to survive, move, recognize, and thrive in an environment devoid of everything!

But was this so easy?

The silence and nothingness around him was deafening as his soul vibrated with defiance and power seeking to move around and sense anything around him.

Yet there was only complete darkness.

A week passed.

The strength of his soul remained as vibrant as ever, countless thoughts being computed every second as Noah sought all possibilities!

He couldn't grasp any Essences or call upon any authorities.

A year passed.

There was only nothingness.

Nothingness that always tried to invade Noah's soul and make him part of it, but he remained unfettered as he looked for a solution.

As he looked for what he had to do!

Uniquely, his Soul had not lost any of its power as even though Noah couldn't sense its full capabilities, its defenses towards nothingness remained just as robust.

What Noah didn't know…was that the potent grandeur of the Crimson Extremity Panacea was still spreading across his Aspects of Existence even though he couldn't feel them.

The essence of this treasure was trying to forge an Unrecorded Aeonic Extremity Foundation just for him as it was altering his Aspects of Existence for this purpose!

And at this moment, wisps of absolute nothingness were the only thing around Noah as the swirling essence of the Crimson Extremity Panacea…

naturally tried to resonate with it.

But it couldn't enter his soul.

Noah himself was stopping its entrance as of course if it entered his soul, he would become part of nothingness and face True Death!

But…the parts that he was disconnected to that didn't have a choice.

His Body and Origin which seemed to not have any cellular activity were also bathed with the magnificence of the Crimson Extremity Panacea as these Aspects…had dense wisps of nothingness permeate throughout them.

And the restructuring Noah was going through…these traces of nothingness that existed outside the scope of space, time, and reality were organized and interleaved into his Body and Origin!

But this was not something Noah knew.

His spirit continued to persevere as to him, a thousand years passed.

Countless possibilities came and went as he found no solution.

He then began to think about the Boundaries he held.

He understood every part of them as even though he couldn't sense them, he thought about their Layers and how he could proceed further with them.

His mind was extremely active as he theorized and imagined countless possibilities!

A million years passed.

There was only emptiness around Noah as he made infinite gains towards the possibilities of his Boundaries and what path they could follow.

A billion years passed.

To Noah, these years were not an illusion as he truly lived them, a part of his spirit continuing to count down every passing second!

Yet…it didn't seem like there would be an end in sight.

No matter how he kept himself busy, it seemed like he would be lost in utter nothingness for the innumerable years to come!
