Chapter 1371 - Higher Existence! II

The weaving of destiny was extremely abstruse as very few could ever truly get a hold of it, but the most important existences within a reality could almost always sense when an event that would have irrevocable changes to their lives occurred.

At this moment in time, the major players within a certain Reality felt these changes, but they could not do anything about it.

In the Primordial Empire and in the Primordial Sea, Aegon and Hyperion raised their heads as even though they had no direction to look towards to, their Origins trembled as their destiny churned in differing manners. Whether it was warning them of danger or opportunity, neither of them knew!

All they knew was that something consequential had happened that would go on to affect their Reality in a huge way. 

Aegon was perplexed as the possibilities of what this could have been were very little, but Hyperion's eyes shone with carefulness as they recalled a certain being he was contractually bound to!

But none of them had any idea that in a small region of space within the vast Ruination Sea, a hand glimmering in multicolored stellar light broke free from a cocoon.

OOOM!

While releasing an awe inspiring air and power, the entire body attached to this hand broke out of the cocoon that shattered into particles of light that receded into this body that came to float serenely in a region of blackness that even the essence of ruination stayed away from!

"Hooo…"

His voice came out in waves as his entire body pulsed with a golden glow, Noah feeling inexplicable changes all around him as his entire body and Origin felt foreign even to him. 

It gave off a multicolored glow as he wasn't adorned in any clothes, his purple blue Universal Form being free for all to see as apart from the sculpted stellar muscles, one could also notice the incredible Runic Dao Lines tinged with golden rings that were etched throughout his body, and his eyes that shone bright red and gold with the Eye of Ruination and the Primordial Eye!

His body shone mostly with the purple blue color of billions of stellar Universes, but the glow of gold seemed to be fighting amidst the array of colors as it stemmed from the Liters of True Blood that now coursed through him.

His face…its devilish handsomeness was stupendously elevated by multiple factors as he seemed to carry a trace of beauty and grace that would blind any lower existences! It was why a being like Cecilia preferred to wear a veil as the inherent beauty of Higher Existences was just too extreme! But of course, Noah wouldn't be able to see the full effects of this unless another person glanced at him.

In the past few hours, his consciousness flittered in and out of existence as he knew that his very body and origin were being reforged as he became a Higher Existence, and he wouldn't know the terrific extent of all of the changes until he looked deeply into himself and tested everything! But…there was an entity that was connected deep with his soul that was able to see everything- all the changes that occurred to him even now.

<I can display the changes that have occurred so far, Master.>

The voice of the Cosmic Filament Core rang out as Noah smiled lightly.

"Go ahead."

WAA!

<The bodies and Origins of a Lower Existence have been shed as with the reforging through the Essence of Reality, you have gained the title of a Higher Existence.>

<The separate Origins under you have been fused into one, all the Traits stemming from each being carried within the single body of a Higher Existence.>

…!

<With the complete change to your physiology and nature, a new stage has opened up before you as the information is summarized within the Higher Existence Title, with much more waiting for your own exploration.>

Golden text after golden text dripped before Noah's stellar eyes as he calmly read through it, his gaze landing on a bundle of text that spoke about the title of a Higher Existence!

<Higher Existence> A title granted to accomplished existences that have had their Origins forged by the Essence of Reality itself. The Stage of a Higher Existence allows one to seamlessly break the bounds of their Reality and traverse outside of it as one feels a pull within their very Origin towards the Main Reality. The Origin of a Higher Existence is unique as the True Blood coursing through it allows for the passive formation of 100 Million Splendiferous Universes daily, as well as the capability to store and utilize the Essence of Reality within one's origin. The regeneration of Essence of Reality is an extremely hard task as the easiest way is to meet the prerequisite of forging an Ascendant Halo through the connection of 15 Flames of Edicts. A formed Ascendant Halo can allow the formation of a connection to a Reality under unique conditions and requirements that as long as they are met, one can continue to gain a slow rate of regeneration of the Essence of Reality. Other ways to regenerate the Essence of Reality may exist as they await your exploration. With the Origin of a Higher Existence, one can easily design their own Lesser and Grand Daos as they are also proficient in designing Cosmic Daos, and the fusion of these Daos and Laws into Edicts can be done with much more ease as the Primordial Eye is naturally granted. As a Higher Existence, all those below you can only gaze at your grandeur as you release a natural Aura of Ascendancy that grants you immunity from any Laws, Lesser Daos, and Grand Daos that Lower Existences utilize against you. The effectiveness of Cosmic Daos being utilized against you from Lower Existences is also reduced by 90% as the effectiveness of Nomological Edicts of the MINOR Rank is reduced by 50%. A passive immunity of 20% against True Annihilatory Soul and Physical Damage is also granted against Lower and Higher Existences. The elevation as a Higher Existence also allows for the recalibration of all of your quantified statuses(Vitality, Strength, and Focus) into a singular status value termed Ascendancy Value(With the inflation from the Focus Value due to the Infinite Mana Trait not being accounted for). The Ascendancy Value of a Higher Existence accounts for their base damage, defensive, and all other parameters as it can be raised by the elevation in Realm, completed Daos and Edicts, and even more greatly elevated through the formation of Ascendancy Halos through Flames of Edicts. Current Ascendancy Value: .75

…!

OOOM!

The glorious achievement of a Higher Existence and what it represented was right before Noah's eyes as there were too many things to unpack!

But everything else aside, the two words that were always encrypted this whole time when it came to what 15 Flames of Edicts formed were finally clear before Noah's eyes.

The titular words of <Ascendancy Halo> fully enamored Noah's eyes at this moment!

<Author Note> 

The [Higher Existence] title seems broken up in two on web novel no matter how much I try to edit it. The portion that is broken up reads like so :: <<The regeneration of Essence of Reality is an extremely hard task as the easiest way is to meet the prerequisite of forging an Ascendant Halo through the connection of 15 Flames of Edicts.>>
