233 A Stunning Developmen

Noah found himself transported into a dangerous new location the moment he passed through the door leading out of the lava-filled cavern where he obtained the Auraless Nine Swords. 

The new area he arrived in was filled with expanding pockets of unstable space that appeared and disappeared randomly. Beings he had observed only from afar were the ones struggling in this cavern, the Magi from the Magus world!

His attention focused on the particularly powerful looking Magus that held a distinct phantom of a Black Serpent swirling around him as he moved around to dodge the fast appearing and disappearing unstable vortices. 

[Spatial Lock]!

OONG

Vibrations spread out with Noah at the center point as the trembling of space and the constantly appearing and disappearing vortexes came to a stop, giving the Magi a breather as they looked towards Noah carefully. Their sight only lingered on him for a moment before they seemed to have ascertained something as their faces became friendly. The most powerful one that was letting out powerful waves similar to the Grand Elder Amos of the Time Immemorial Sect nodded towards Noah with a smile.

"Thank you, friend. I was unsure of how to break out of this predicament in one piece, but you held the treasure to perfectly counteract against it. May I know the identity of the one I'm extending my goodwill to?"

Noah observed the empty grassland cavern that reverted to peace as he spoke with a light smile towards the powerful Magus a level above him. 

"I go by Noah. It seems like this Abode of opportunity is actually filled with even more dangers."

A vicious light imperceptibly passed by Black Serpent's eyes as he heard these words and laughed. 

"Haha yes, I'm afra-"

OONG!

Any words were cut short as the cavern they were in trembled heavily, at the corner of it appearing a gateway similar to the ones that were in every cavern. A doorway finally appeared the moment the perilous situation was resolved by Noah, and the beings in the cavern looked at each other carefully as they chose how to proceed.

There treasure that many of the top powers in this Treasure Abode were aiming for was something so spectacular that even he chose early on to brave the dangers of this Realm where even beings at the level above his would have some trouble. But, even with all of this, he would still run the moment the danger became grave.

"Yet another gateway for us to go into that will either lead to amazing treasures or perilous dangers."

The strong voice of the Magus surrounded by the phantom of a Black Serpent rang out as some of his people already began going towards the recently appearing doorway to get out of this cavern before the spatial lock that Noah had set up lost its effectiveness. 

"I wish you the best, my friend."

His eyes twinkled with wild power as he passed through the doorway and disappeared. Noah observed the now empty surroundings as the essence in his body rumbled, he would cast his skills in advance to prepare for whatever was waiting through that door.

His goal was the insane treasure he had only caught glimpses of from reading the memories of the counterpart that was passed down among the servant family tracing back to the beginning of Time Immemorial Sect until it had fallen in his hands. It was this same treasure that Grand Elder Amos had whispered for him to keep a lookout for before they separated. This was Noah's only goal, and he would leave this Treasure Abode the moment he got his hands on it.

OONG!

Essence erupted out as he cast [The Calamitous Leviathan], his body exploding to become the deadly Nine-Headed Dragon that let out wild waves of power. The extremely large body reduced in size as it turned into a streak of light that went towards the pulsating doorway.

For a second, there was only darkness, and then he found himself in another location. This one was extremely wide and large, and it was filled with many auras of individuals!

Noah spread out his senses to find the vibrant aura of Grand Elder Amos shining with a milky white as his eyes gazed in front of them. There was a spectacular temple in the middle of the huge cavern they were in, and this temple was surrounded by many beings fighting for their lives.

Bodies could be seen on the ground as blood was freely flowing. The group with Grand Elder Amos had reduced significantly, and Noah couldn't even find the Elders and Legacy Disciples he had left early on. 

Besides the Grand Elder, there was another being standing on the same level as him, a man with shining black and blue hair that was accompanied by a guard that did not make any moves, but showed the power of a Saint similar to the Grand Elder. There were even more bodies surrounding this figure as he fought his way towards the temple valiantly. Any being that dared to climb towards the Temple would be facing the power of this figure, or the Saint Realm Grand Elder!

Besides them, the group of Magi that had recently appeared were also making their way towards the temple with shining eyes. 

There was only a single thing that had caused so much death and casualties, with people still ignoring everything as they tried to reach what they could see. At the top of the temple that everyone was ascending, a black coffin was stably laid. At the top of this black coffin was the one item making everyone lose their minds. It was a small dagger that was slowly rotating in the air releasing purple and gold lights. It wasn't that huge, but everyone in this cavern knew what it was. An Ultimate Weapon!

A weapon that had been with the Devilish Time Unveiler since the very beginning, something that many of them did not even understand what its power was. All they knew was that they would hold tremendous power with this item in their hands. Noah felt his heart beat faster as he laid his many eyes on the rotating dagger that belonged to the sheath he held with him. This was the treasure he had seen in his memories, the one thing he came into this Realm to obtain!

He gazed towards the powerful figures fighting for the treasure in this space as the road in front of him looked arduous. On one side was the radiant Saint Realm Grand Elder of the Time Immemorial Sect that knew exactly how tremendous this treasure was. Another side held the mysterious figure that was accompanied by an armored being holding no less power than a Saint, with he himself letting out a Transcendent aura but still seeming overly powerful at that level. The last side was the Magus that had just entered, the phantom form of the Black Serpent around him becoming more and more physical as it seemed like he would turn into the terrible beast himself soon. 

There were many contenders and enemies on all sides, so how would he go about getting his hands on this spectacular item?
