Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

All the preparations were going smoothly as Noah was calculating for any and all possibilities.

In the space where he had remained all this time to eradicate Primordial Legions.

The surroundings of this location were bright with essence at this moment as another True Sanguine Clone was sent to wipe out the remaining forces sent out by Primordial Bloodlines, this other clone retaining its position here as it waited for a particularly terrifying personage!

The body of this clone was buzzing with Ascendancy Halos as another Halo would be added after a few seconds, where in the next minute…30 brilliantly flashing obsidian Halos came to undulate over his body seamlessly.

The number of Halos that only those at the Ninth Firmament of Ascendancy should hold pulsed around him with unbound majesty, and this wasn't enough as soon after, the authority of a TABOO Relic flashed as an additional 10 Halos were added.

HUUUM!

40 brilliantly Halos filled with swirling Runic Ecritures and pulsing Eyes of Ascendancy could be seen as they reflected Noah's hardened expression.

Since what was to come was about to be extremely perilous, Noah acted because he knew there would still be a path to victory- if everything went according to plan that is!

And now, he moved to call out one of the cards that made him bold enough to try this.

"Fuse."

RUUUMBLE!

The 40 Ascendancy Halos blared out like horns signaling the end as even before the enemy arrived, Noah fused with a number of Halos that even Ninth Firmament existences could not attain.

10 Halos held 600 Concepts within them as it was an entirely ridiculous notion, bringing the total of Quasi-TABOO Nomological Edicts that Noah contained within 40 to be 2,400!

This was the result of farming and utilizing a majority of the Olden Orbs of Transmogrification, a shocking truth that a single existence who had yet to become a LEGEND held such a number of concepts even before breaking his shackles!

His Ascendancy Value alone should exceed any common Ninth Firmament existence, but no Reality Passages could be seen around him as he fused with 40 Ascendancy Halos.

Then came one of the trump cards for today's ordeal.

The True Form that he would take!

<Under the fusion of your Ascendancy Halos, you can attain your True Form that traces all the way back to your roots. Due to the remodeling of your body and soul when awakening your Unnamed Kainos Emperor Bloodline, your true nature is what you choose. Possible True Forms for you to select from are: Human, Unnamed Kainos Tyrant, Arcadian Tyrant, Samsara Universal Origin, Samsara Cosmic Origin, Pure-Blooded Cardinal Royal Human, Pure-Blooded Cardinal Royal Infinite Willow Tree, Destiny Goblin Emperor, Cardinal Royal Cosmic Wolf, Cardinal Royal Spirit, Cardinal Royal Empyrean Elf…>

A prompt that told him to choose his own True Form appeared.

And his thoughts moved with surety.

'Cardinal Royal Spirit.'

HOOOONG!

Fantastical splendor shot out with ridiculous power that was accompanied by a blinding cerulean light!

Not the Pure-Blooded Cardinal Royal Human, or even Infinite Willow Tree…or even his Samsara Cosmic Dao Origin form.

He instead chose the Spirit Race that he had just attained from wiping out their Legion that was led by Commander Cox…why was this?!

<You have taken the form of the Cardinal Royal Spirit while fused with your 40 Black Tier Ascendancy Halos.>

<You have lost your physical body and attained an incorporeal form, the base of your existence being supported mainly by your soul and Origin!>

HUUUUM!

<In the Cardinal Royal Spirit True Form, the strength of your Primogenial Soul is Elevated three times. Due to the form being brought out with the authority of 40 Black Tier Ascendancy Halos, the full elevation of Primogenial Soul Strength becomes ten times.>

Noah's body exploded out with incandescent light as it turned into a mass of pure essence, blooming into an incorporeal cerulean form of a Spirit that seemed to constantly be a blob of interchanging forms!

<All attacks and abilities are now cast with a single authority while in this form, allowing your base values and skills to obtain a multiplier of 2,500 to your True Reality Damage Values and True Reality Defense Values.>

…!

<As a Cardinal Royal Spirit in your True Form, all True Reality Damage and Defense Values are converted to True Reality Soul Damage and Defense Values as you attain 90% Immunity to True Reality Physical Damage Values. >

WAAA!

Yes!

This was the first weapon Noah had that granted him a level of confidence to survive- even if it was ever so briefly, against a LEGEND.

Since he had attained the Primogenial Strata of the Soul, why shouldn't he use this as his strongest point?

Since his soul was strongest, he let go of his physical form as he only had his soul and Origin to depend on!

This was a factor that made the Cardinal Royal Spirit Race powerful- that they were pure Spirits in form as they were mainly immune to physical damage.

But just like all existences…they still held their Origins.

And this was another case that would be Noah's weakness even though he let go of his physical body- his Origin was still that of a Cosmic Filament that only held 10 Billion Cosmos!

But…his fused form with 40 Black Tier Ascendancy Halos granted a 2,500 multiplier.

This was dreadful by itself as when he fused with 10, it was a 500 multiplier. And depending on the Form he took, he was granted an additional 250 multiplier either to True Reality Damage or Defense Values!

The form of a Cardinal Royal Spirit didn't grant extra Damage or Defense Values, with its perk being converting normal True Reality Damage and Defense Values to True Reality SOUL Damage and Defense Values as when Noah took on the forms of Infinite Willow Tree or Samsara Cosmic Dao Origin…his multiplier would probably be raised far above 2,500.

"A 2,500 multiplier should be more than enough…"

OOM!

His voice had turned ancient and regal as he spoke mesmerizingly in his new form, his figure being that of a mass of ever changing cerulean mass that had 10 pairs of multicolored wings sprouting behind it.

The Runic Ecritures of MANA, PURE, RULE, and LIFE surged around him in a magisterial fashion as even pulses of VITALITY could be seen every now and then hidden deep within him, a resounding symphony resonating with them in a shocking crescendo!

The first card to play in just being able to survive and withstand a coming LEGEND was played and ready.

There was still another that Noah had to play to ensure that things went according to plan from here on out!
