Chapter 258 - Convergence of Forces
As some forces waged war in frozen worlds, others continued to elevate the power of their Worlds as dungeon diving became widespread in one small Blue Planet, the Beast World, and the Demon World.
There were still an enormous amount of beings that could not be considered ’Awakened’ and did not fit into any category, but more and more were joining their ranks naturally as the essence of their Worlds continued to be elevated, with some finding themselves stepping into the F Rank in their sleep as their bodies continued to be cradled with the abundant amount of essence.
This allowed for a large number of beings to actively dive in the many created dungeons that were catered to making them stronger, with very few beings facing death from carelessness and stupidity every now and then.
In the Blessed Empire and United Federation, abundant trade had bloomed as they gained access to unique items, treasures, and produce from the two words they were connected to.
The Blessed Empire received more influence from the Beast World as there was a Main Gateway connecting the Beast World to the Blue Planet near its borders, while the United Federation had more influence from the Demon World as they began the widespread trading and production of [Power Jewels] that were unique to the demon world.
These [Power Jewels], a product of Abyss Magic that the demons specialized in, were among the hottest commodities being traded nowadays because they acted as huge damage amplifiers to their skills, having a unique function of ’Corrupting’ their abilities and making them almost twice as powerful. It was more frequently being called a Modifier by the newly awakened hunters that still observed everything like it was a game.
The Beast World continued its focus on produce and weapons, especially from the Frozen Kingdom that Noah visited the most frequently, making it the one that received more attention with the use of [Budding Farmer] that continued to explode the agricultural sector with plants that could be termed Medicinal Herbs already with their current effectiveness.
They were Core Disciples that very few knew of, but they increased the excitement of the disciples of the sect as they knew with their addition, they would be even safer while traversing the Infernal Realm that was the First Hell.
This was because the returning disciples were no less powerful than the Shining Son and even the newly advanced Crixus, with some of them being even more powerful!
Their arrival caused a tumultuous movement in the shock as many disciples gathered on the main peak with the preparations to set off for the First Hell being underway. They watched the Teleportation Portal shine as five figures made their presence clear before their eyes, aweing them to their very cores as they sensed their levels of strength.
From what they could see, even the weakest of the five newly arrived disciples was at the Saint Realm, with them not being able to see the realms of others! This left them roiling in shock and awe as they asked themselves- in front of such geniuses, weren’t they just trash?!
Among the many disciples congregating on the Main Peak of the Steller Sky Mountains, the Shining Son, William, was looking closely at the appearance of these unheard of disciples as someone not too far from him was giving these beings an even closer look.
The figure of ’Crixus’ had a brief change in expression as he observed the faces of two particular beings among the newly returning core disciples, as he knew these faces very well!
One was the Celestial Disciple Drax that he had already come in contact with before, while another held a prominent figure that he recognized from the memories of Drax, the being that acted on the orders of the Celestials and directly caused the destruction of the Lost World of Atlantis!
In the recesses of Drax’s memories, Noah had found the collections of missions of many of the Celestial Disciples, with many of the memories occupying the renowned War Princess, Athena.
The Celestial Disciple at the forefront of power, the one that many Celestials looked at with favor as someone who would soon join their ranks. The ever so powerful and beautiful Athena, as well as a party of other Celestial Disciples, had all arrived to take part in the Infernal Hunt with the disciples of the Profound Astral Sect.Witness the genesis of this narrative, streaming from Nøv€lß¡n★
