Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

It felt like a significant amount of time had passed since I looked at a skill tree given from other sources, the current one on Annihilation being something that piqued my interest as I went through the details of the skills.

[Chains of Annihilation](5/5) :: Chains as small as a rope or as large as stars can be thrown out to wrap around one's enemies. All those chained take +50,000% Increased Annihilation Damage and -10,000% to All Elemental and Dao Resistances.

[Galactic Devastation](5/5) :: The Annihilatory force of thousands of Galaxies covers your entire body, this force being applied with every physical attack thrown out as it can only end in utter Annihilation. When cast successfully, a single punch can shatter entire Galaxies.

[Destroyer](5/5) :: A Passive Ability that grants the Bearer of Annihilation +20,000% Annihilation Damage to all attacks, +20,000% Increased Laws and Daos Penetration, and +20,000% Splash Damage to All Abilities.

[Apocalypse](5/5) :: The essence of Ruination descends in the surrounding few miles, anything and everything within being ravaged by a manifesting apocalypse that uses the essence of Annihilation as the base and pulls upon the other Daos of the user to complete a true Apocalypse. The more Daos the user has, the more apocalyptic this ability becomes. Current Damage Modifier- +55,000%

"Beautiful…"

I couldn't help but nod with admiration at the skills, intent on trying out all of them right now as the battle between the Primordial Ruination Clone was ongoing with the Peak Great Sage at this moment.

My eyes wandered around the skills of the new skill tree a bit more as I focused on the term [Splash Damage] under the description of the Destroyer passive, my thoughts really being affirmed as Splash Damage was considered a type of damage that afflicted those in the nearby vicinity of the cast skill, causing a chain reaction of damage when fighting large groups of things!

The skills made me look forward to the next group battles as my eyes returned to the Primordial Ruination Clone that was currently fighting against the being from the Cerulean Universe, many more thoughts swimming in my mind on the secrets that were being whispered by two Hegemonies and what would be happening next in the Animus Universe…

"Ah, it seems he has finally met his match!"

The Sages and Great Sages watched the battle between the Tyrant Dragon and Carr Bon Zigan of the Cerulean Universe with bright eyes as they saw a wondrous fight erupting forth, skills of devastating effects being displayed from both combatants.

Carr Bon Zigan was a genuine Cerulean Warlock, a being under the tutelage of one of the beings most proficient in mana and magic- The Hegemony of the Blue Seas!

His vibrant blue staff shot forth terrifying Elemental storms with every wave, but the Tyrant Dragon withstood all of them as he didn't seem affected.

[Ruination Galaxy Spirit Bombs].

THRUM!

It had only been less than two minutes since the battle began, but a cluster of unstable Galaxies would shoot forth from the Tyrannical Dragon Emperor every few seconds as the Cerulean Warlock calmly waved his staff to cast fortress like defensive shields that withstood the force of the exploding galaxies!

It was like watching an expert mage weave the most suitable skills as a second there, his resonant voice rang out softly.

[Duality of Aether and Chaos].

RUMBLE!

Space tore apart as from within, tendrils of Aether and Chaos interweaved together, connected by the dense essence of the Dao of Slaughter that this being emanated out- these terrifying strikes backed with the force of over 41 Billion Galaxies as they threatened to smash the scales of the Tyrannical Dragon Emperor!

"The fight actually seems more balanced? But just who is this Tyrant Dragon that is capable of going toe to toe with someone in the top 500 of all Great Sages fighting in the Slaughter Star Monolith?"

"It doesn't matter who he is, just that his brief shot in the light will fade away soon eno-"

RUMBLE!

Before the words of spectators could even end, the majestic Tyrannical Dragon Emperor ripped apart the tendrils of Aether and Chaos connected by Slaughter, its roar reverberating out as from it...a magisterial essence had begun to emanate out!

"That…!"

Alarm rose in the eyes of many, but more so from the eyes of the Cerulean Warlock that could sense the terrifying essence nearby himself.

Tinged red and black, carrying with it immense power of decimation and destruction...it was the essence of a Cosmic Dao that far surpassed Grand Daos!

"Impossible!"

"He has...he has…!"

"A Cosmic Dao! "

WAA!

Even Monarchs stood up from their seats at this shocking scene, watching as someone at the level of a Great Sage somehow comprehended and was currently showing the essence of a Cosmic Dao.

What many didn't know was that amidst the dense essence of the Cosmic Dao of Annihilation, an even denser and more powerful Cosmic Dao of Ruination was laced with it as with the obtainment of another Cosmic Dao, Noah could freely release the Essence of Ruination that was masked by the Dao of Subterfuge and have a shocking excuse for how much power it would show.

This was how Noah planned to bridge the gaps of power, the gaps of 10s of billions of Galaxies that beings such as the one in front of him had already forged over the hundreds of thousands of years they lived.

Every month, he would just learn a new Cosmic Dao on top of everything else as he wondered who in the same rank as him could stand against him?!

But...the action of a Great Sage somehow gaining comprehension of a Cosmic Dao was so rare that many beings looked towards it in a stupor!

OOOOH

The bellow of the Tyrannical Dragon Emperor was heard by all as it fully announced itself, its jaws forming a devilish smile as it looked towards the Cerulean Warlock that had lost his confidence.

He called out softly.

[Apocalypse].

…!

RUMBLE!
