Chapter 161: Explosive Growth! I

The stage was set as Noah prepared many things, where as he saw the first step of sending 10 Subjugated Blessed work out successfully, he began to slowly send more over the next few days!

It was a period of accumulation and planning for Noah as he began to receive a large amount of high quality loot from the Subjugated Blessed that infiltrated the conclaves.

All of them without question exchanged their loot and used their Contribution Points for the Grand Dao Crystals of Destruction, Noah beginning to get a steady supply of this over time!

As for the Disciples he Subjugated who returned to conclaves that weren't powerful enough to be able to obtain and freely have Grand Dao Crystals in their Treasure Troves, Noah had them exchange their Contribution Points for the NEBULA Rank Cores.

There were a few disciples like this who stemmed from Conclaves that didn't control any Grand Dao Dimensional Rifts, and Noah had these beings used for this purpose as he began to collect another type of loot with ease.

He actually began to accumulate these NEBULA Rank Cores just 3 days after his plans began, with him and any others wanting to elevate from star into nebula rank needing to obtain over 1000 Nebula Rank Cores before they could succeed.

The amount of essence one needed to advance just continued to increase as they rose in levels, but this was of no consequence to Noah as he had a myriad of existences to bring him his!

As for Catherine, the fiery Young Saintess would occasionally ascend to the Tenebrous Conclave in the Empyrean Dimensional Plane every few days for the exchange of loot, with most of her time being spent with Noah exploring the power of the Grand Dao of Destruction among other things.

Annalise and Rose enjoyed their time as the girls began to explore the vast and unique star and Realm Systems of the Sublunary Plane, and like this...2 weeks passed.

2 weeks, but the changes were monumental as the growth during these two weeks was something others could only imagine!

At this moment, in the head of the Sanctuary right below the Golden Stairway of Ascension.

THRUM

Dark essence was undulating in a terrifying manner around Noah as it seemed like it was on the cusp of breaking through, with his body currently absorbing the 1000th Grand Dao Crystal as within this short period of 2 weeks…

He was already completing the Comprehension of a Grand Dao!

WAA!

The crystal within his hands faded as he found his Origin being bathed with the light of destruction, something unique blooming from him as he felt a prompt appear before his eyes.

{Aura of the Grand Controller of Destruction} :: A passive aura that only appears around those who have fully comprehended the Grand Dao of Destruction. It grants +5,000% Extra Damage,  the quality of Essence Corrosion bring applied to all attacks, and allows the Grand Controller of Destruction to utilize this Dao in unique ways...

…!

Around him, a unique black aura that shone of regality formed as it was actually the aura someone gained for fully comprehending a Grand Dao, their power behind enhanced by a large amount!

"Just ridiculous…"

Noah couldn't help but utter with a smile as he rose up while clenching his hands to enjoy the feeling of boundless strength.

In just two weeks, he actually obtained 1000 Grand Dao Crystals of Destruction from the resources of multiple conclaves as it allowed him to completely comprehend a Grand Dao!

This wasn't all as when one looked within his Origin...they would actually be able to find not a Star, but a NEBULA!

2 days ago, he had undergone through the stupendous process of also absorbing 1000 NEBULA Rank Cores, his origin undergoing a majestic transformation.

His single star had been filled to the brim with essence as when it couldn't take anymore, a being had to shatter this star as they used the force it provides to birth multiple stars and form a small Nebula!

A nebula was an interstellar body that contained gaseous materials and could form stars within, every existence having to go through this process before they could form a terrifying Black Hole for the next stage of power.

The feeling of strength Noah received from achieving both the rank of NEBULA and attaining complete Comprehension in Destruction made him feel like he was on cloud 9, with his eyes blazing with light as with such a gain in power, he planned to make his descent again in the Abyssal Plane!

He had been enjoying his Idle life of sitting around for 2 weeks as resources and loot just came to him, but he wanted to also continue strengthening his powerful consciousness and soul by continuing to devour the souls of more Abyssal Fiends.

The 100 Quintillion number also had to keep being reduced if Noah ever wanted to complete the mission of the Abyssal Plane Expedition.

His rate of killing this time should be expanded by many levels as aside from him, there were also his Units that had currently been able to step into the NEBULA Rank through fusion!

He currently held 5 Units that had undergone fusion, these Rift Bosses releasing terrifying wave software power as Noah expected to clear the Minor Fiend Nest in seconds, with him being able to delve deeper and deeper into the Abyssal Plane as he even fought with NEBULA Rank Abyssal Fiends.

"Let's finally get busy, shall we…"

With a light smile and eyes that flashed a beautiful blue, Noah flashed out of the Sanctuary as he appeared quite a distance away into the Ethereal Realm, intent on grabbing Annalise who always wanted to grow stronger alongside him.

At the same time, he waved his hands to call forth 8 Subjugated Blessed that would be going with them as he prepared.

He had already put a system in place that would grant him a myriad of Dao Crystals and Cores as time passed, and now he would be just a bit more proactive as he increased his power to even crazier levels by farming in the Abyssal Plane!
