Chapter 129: Unceasing Growth in the Shadows! I

Noah had expanded the number of Dimensional Rifts he could get his hands on vastly every time that he subjugated more beings.

From the Overseers that looked over entire Clusters of Stars and Realms to the single Dimensional Ruler Tomen he currently had under him...his plate was full for a whole two days just with these subjugated beings as he ran around adding more and more Rifts into Idle Mode!

Many of them were in the Diamond and Platinum Rank as their rewards couldn't compare to a single run of a WORLD Rank Rift like the Labyrinth of Chaos, but Noah could clear them in a much shorter period of time as there were also more of them.

This meant that he was getting Universal Law Crystals equivalent to the loot of the World Rank Labyrinth of Chaos from approximately 3 Elemental Rifts of lower levels! 

At the moment, the number of Universal Laws he was in the process of comprehending and assimilating had increased even more as more types of Rifts fell into his lap, and he currently had Aether, Light, Dark, Fate, Chaos, Life, Fire, Air, Water, and Earth shining brightly in his status panels as the number of laws he fully comprehended.

Aether and Chaos...would actually be the first set of laws he would fully assimilate in the next day as the rate of producing over 2000 Universal Law Crystals every day from these added Rifts was simply too domineering!

Simply put, he was getting stronger at a rate others could only dream of.

In the past 2 days, he was almost finished going through the Rifts that subjugating Dimensional Ruler Tomen and his Overseers had provided him, taking a few hours each day to return to the chaotic realm of the powerful Catherine as he sparred with her while using the powerful Dao of Destruction.

He was also accumulating more information about the enemies he faced as with his grasp extending to the Dimensional Ruler Tomen, he gained a much greater foothold in the Order of the Primal Dimensional Rulers!

This faction was the second most powerful in the Sublunary Plane, boasting 5 powerful Dimensional Rulers at the same stage as Catherine. 

They were powerful beings at the STAR Rank as the most powerful that Noah had to keep his eyes on was the being that had assimilated both the laws of Chaos and Fate, this being one of the experts that had first moved to give him trouble!

Below him and the other 4 Star Rank Rulers, there were over 20 Dimensional Rulers at the World Rank similar to Tomen that made up the powerful ranks of beings in the Order of the Primal Dimensional Rulers.

These 20 beings and the clusters of Planetary bodies they oversaw...were Noah's current targets as he busily moved in the shadows across the Sublunary Plane!

He was creating a balance of adding Rifts into Idle Mode, collecting information, and delving into the Infinite Crucible and Shattered Elemental Planes as his increase in power was covered from all angles.

His Units continued to increase in number at the WORLD Rank, where he now held 7 fused World Rank Rift Bosses as he grew even more confident to move against the Dimensional Rulers moving around as tyrants in the Sublunary Plane as they enslaved trillions of beings under their heel.

When he himself attained power at the STAR Rank and had a full Team of Units at this stage as well...he would even worry about the 5 experts at this rank that stood as the peak powerhouses of the Order of the Primal Dimensional Rulers! At that time, he would just quietly move to dominate and subjugate them all as he put an entire faction of the Sublunary Plane under him, the powerful Conclaves of the Empyrean Realm that all these Dimensional Rulers were connected to being none the wiser on what was exactly happening as Noah planned to keep many if not all of them alive but in the state of Subjugation.

In the past, it had actually been a problem on whether he could subjugate other beings that held a strong will and chose death over being controlled, but the situation was actually less likely now as against any enemies of the same level- his powerful mind could dominate them fully as long as they were defeated, leading to a smooth process of subjugation!

Plans were hatched and actions were made with all this in mind as after 2 days, Noah planned to further increase his reach as he targeted more Dimensional Rulers today.

He was currently floating in specified coordinates of space where Tomen obtained information of a Team of a Dimensional Ruler and their Overseers passing through, Noah hiddenly waiting for them as he looked at the Idle Gaming System Interface that was actually about to reach another milestone.

It was the milestone of achieving 100 million Idle Exp as he had been gaining over 15 Million Exp Daily with the addition of Diamond, Platinum, and Soul Rank rifts in large numbers as when Noah clicked to collect All Resources for the current Rifts in Idle Mode...

[Maximum number of Idle Exp reached. Upgrade?]

"Upgrade!"

RUMBLE 

A glorious flash of light occurred in the Idle Gaming System Interface as beside Noah, Annalise had careful eyes while looking at his random shouting weirdly.

"Brother, what are you doing now? Shouldn't we focus on whatever Dimensional Ruler we're about to come across?"

The little sister was still moving with care as even at the WORLD Rank with Noah having already beginning to feed her Universal Law Crystals, she was still moving with a lot of care and caution whenever they made huge moves!

Noah simply reached out for her head to pat it while keeping his eyes on the Idle Gaming System Interface and replied.

"It's just a World Rank Dimensional Ruler. We'll do it the same as before- imprison them in a field of ice, and then I break their minds…"

RUMBLE

Terrifying words were released nonchalantly as Noah turned his head to the prompts rising up before his eyes, the upgrade successful as always while the number of Idle Exp he required for the next Upgrade were now 1 Billion!

The number of Units he could utilize on the field increased by another 2 as it was now 14, and the newly unlocked feature…

[Abyssal Plane Expedition] :: The first feature that allows the Master of the Idle Gaming System to call upon other existences around him as Party Members to delve into an Expedition into the Abyssal Plane. The Abyssal Plane is filled with dangers as existences as low as the Gold Rank and even higher than the STAR Rank can be found, with Loot Resources ranging from Cores to Universal Law Crystals to Dao Crystals. The Unique Loot Resource of Skill Points can also be obtained in the Abyssal Plane. Party Members have to be at the same rank as the Master of the Idle Gaming System, and a maximum of 10 is allowed for every entry into the Abyssal Plane. The goal of the Abyssal Plane Expedition is to completely clear the Plane of all enemies, with the current remaining number of Enemies being 100 Quintillion. When all 100 Quintillion enemies of the Abyssal Plane are cleared, the Shards of a Taboo Treasure will be given as rewards.

…!

Noah's eyes blazed with an intense light as he read over this new feature multiple times.

A feature where he didn't have to delve into it alone with just his Units, but he could call upon others at the same rank for help! This wasn't the most frightening thing about this feature, but the fact that it seemed different from all the others as there was actually a number of creatures he had to wipe put that tallied at...100 Quintillion!

Quintillions!

There were 1,000 Trillions in a single Quintillion, and Noah had to clear 100 Quintillion enemies within this Abyssal Plane for him to obtain the Shards of a Taboo Treasure!

His mind buzzed with activity as he wondered what the hell a Treasure that could be considered Taboo even was, or why its conditions were so domineering as to require the complete wipe out of 100 Quintillion existences.

And the strength of these beings even exceeded that of the STAR Rank that the powerful Dimensional Rulers of the Sublunary Plane had reached, making Noah be extremely careful towards it as this Abyssal Plane seemed like a huge playing field where he could come across a Gold Rank mob in one area or randomly run across Star Rank experts in another!

"Sheesh…"

He couldn't help but let out a breath as he thought of many things, the first and foremost being to empower more beings around him if he ever wanted to safely enter the [Abyssal Plane Expedition].

He now held hundreds of Cores in the WORLD Rank from the clear of the Labyrinth of Chaos within Catherine's chaotic realm, and he could elevate the strength of his Subjugated Blessed and produce multiple beings in the same Rank as him!

Only then would he even think of the feature of [Abyssal Plane Expedition].

"They're coming!"

Annalise's voice reached his ears at this moment as his eyes flashed, his next target of a Dimensional Ruler almost making their appearance on the horizon as the brother and sister duo prepared to make a move!
