Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

A carved infinity symbol pulled its enemies with a shocking pull of gravity and exploded out maddeningly in the next instant.

In the Dimensional Holy Land of the Gourmandizing Dimensional Reality, Noah saw the results of this first hand as the reason for all this made itself apparent.

The allure of loot...showed itself.

<+50,000 Ultima Blood Pearls have been obtained…> DING! The effects of Loot Multiplier are applied…<+500 Empyral Physique Refining Pearls obtained.>

<+50,000 Plasmoid Soul Drops have been obtained…> DING! The effects of Loot Multiplier are applied…<+500 Plasmoid Soul Seas have been obtained.>

The loot from only the Ultima Strata LEGENDs that had perished under him showed as next, the combined count of Grotto Panaceas from both Ultima and Alpha Strata LEGENDS showed.

<+225 Reality Panaceas have been obtained…> DING! The effects of Loot Multiplier are applied…<+225 Grotto Panaceas have been obtained.>

<435 Kainos Dimensional Resource points have been obtained....>

<The effects of Absolute Looter are applied.>

<You have attained 675 Shards of Profundity that contain the musings of the Decretum of Dreams...>

Fantastical prompts had flashed before his eyes as they meant a great deal of things.

Many of them would have tremendously important uses and take Noah far, but nothing was as fantastical as the highest tiered loot under Noah at this moment.

The Grotto Panaceas!

A total of 67 Grotto Panaceas were required for the full saturation of the Second Dimensional Layer.

With the cast of the Quintessential Emperor's Annihilation Technique- Second Form, Noah had taken down multiple Ultima Strata LEGENDs and over a hundred at the Alpha Strata as the Grotto Panaceas he attained were enough to accomplish many things!

225 Grotto Panaceas were entirely enough to fully saturate Noah's Second Layer and get started with the third one, with the major question waiting for him being the cost of elevation for the Third Dimensional Layer.

From the first to the second, the effectiveness of Grotto Panaceas was halved from 3 Trillion to 1.5 Trillion Kainos Royal Cosmos.

Going into the Third Layer...would 1.5 be halved again or since the difficulty continued to rise even higher as Noah forged more Dimensions, would the effectiveness of Grotto Panaceas be divided even more?!

Noah's destiny told him he would not like the answer.

And the affirmation came soon after!

<The Grotto Panacea knows itself and its usage very well.>

WAA!

Essence buzzed around Noah as the 225 Grotto Panaceas within his Expansive Space all shone with boundless luminescence.

<The Grotto Panacea regrets to inform you that for your Third Dimensional Layer, it can only form 375 Billion Kainos Royal Cosmos. Its abilities being decreased fourfold isn't due to its weakness, but due to the path you chose where obscene amounts of resources are required the further up you traverse on this path.>

...!

The Tri-Pupiled eyes of the Quintessential Kainos Emperor released blinding beams of light as his path was made clear!

The effectiveness of the Grotto Panaceas was halved from the First to the Second Dimensional Layer, and then their effectiveness was further decreased fourfold from the Second to the Third Layer!

He needed 267 Grotto Panaceas to complete the Third Dimensional Layer.

With what Noah had on hand...it meant he could fully finish his Second Layer and get started with his Third, and he would no doubt have enough to complete that Layer so long as he repeated what he just did in this war.

But of course, it didn't end there.

<The Grotto Panacea has made further calculations.>

<It states that there is a high probability that from the Third to the Fourth Layer, its effectiveness will be reduced 8 fold. For your Fourth Dimensional Layer, it can only form 47 Billion Kainos Royal Cosmos.>

"..."

The path he had chosen for himself gradually became clear.

He would require 2128 Grotto Panaceas to fully forge his Fourth Dimensional Layer!

And if the sequence continued like this...

<The Grotto Panacea affirms that from the Fourth to the Fifth Layer, its effectiveness will be reduced 16-fold. For your Fifth Dimensional Layer, it can only form 2.9 Billion Kainos Royal Cosmos.>

WAA!

Noah's luminous fade gradually became dimmer as he contained his will.

He knew his path would be hard but this...

He would need approximately 34,482 Grotto Panaceas just to complete his Fifth Dimensional Layer!

The difference from the requirements to complete the first to the Fifth were just that drastic.

<The Grotto Panacea has made further calcu->

"Stop it."

<...>

Noah's will surged out to stop the ridiculous Loot from making any further calculations.

He got the idea.

The Sixth to Ninth and final Dimensional would take insurmountable resources to forge as he didn't even need to think about this right now.

He only needed to gaze at what was right in front of him.

The idea was already cemented in stone as all that it meant was that many, many of his enemies would have to perish for him to accomplish what he sought!

And wondrously, he would be becoming an Enemy of multiple Dimensions the more Dimensions he forged as sources of loot would not stop!

So he did what he could do now as he called out tens of Grotto Panaceas, the radiant Loot unfurling and showering his main body with their light as hundreds of Billions of Kainos Royal Prana Cosmos bloomed.

The halfway point would be reached soon enough as his power would explode even further, with the finality of this Second Dimensional Layer not being too far away!

His mind settled as he experienced his shocking growth unique to him.

Who else could explosively grow their power in the middle of a battle by devouring everything about the enemies they killed? Who else but the Quintessential Kainos Emperor?!

He devoured the aspects of his enemies and multiplied them with the Resplendent Treasure Emperor, and there were still even more boons as the last set of prompts after the Grotto Panaceas and Dimensional Resource Points came down.

They were normally the prompts about concepts and edicts, but this time...

<You have eradicated an existence(s) with a fully completed HERESY Tier Concept while holding understanding in this same Decretum of said concept.>

<You have attained the HERESY Edicts of the Slumbering Dreamer and The Nightmare of the Endless Seas.>

...!
