Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chapter 242 - Careful beyond bounds!

Chapter 242 - Careful beyond bounds!

Noah’s mind recalled the emotion of fear that he had not felt in a long time. This feeling came when he believed he was about to lose everything. It came at his lowest point as he realized that he would be single-handedly responsible for the deaths of three worlds.

He hated this feeling of fear, and he hated even more that he had not fully given his life the utter importance that it really deserved!

It was not an option for him to die, and he had still acted recklessly and entered a place he was not fully knowledgeable of. This place had taught him a painful lesson as he watched a great deal of the things he cared about be literally torn apart in front of him.

It was a painful experience, but one that he thanked the Devilish Time Unveiler for in the end because he needed it!

From this day forth, he had to be careful beyond bounds! He had to plan in advance every move he would do, understand which players he might come in contact with, and whether he will smoothly move and not endanger his life in the process.

He hated the feeling of fear, the feeling of falling to the deepest depths as his life came under the control of his enemy. His calm aura changed as a dangerous glint of light passed through his eyes as he recalled the ruthlessness he had been exposed to in this trip in the World of Cultivation.

The ruthlessness of schemers that were hundreds of years old, ones that should have even been dead! The ruthlessness of Grand Elders as even with the death of all their Sect Disciples, they still kept their eyes on the treasure they wanted to get their hands on.

The ruthlessness of a specific Devilish Time Unveiler had almost allowed him to have complete revival from the dead before his plans were ruined because of too much pride and something he could have never expected!

This was one of the biggest lessons replaying in Noah’s mind, the fact that even after all the planning the Devilish Time Unveiler had put even, even with his stupendous power at the Void Fimmerment Realm, all his plans were still ruined in the end.

Anything and everything could happen, so he had to be extremely careful, and in order to increase his chances of success, he also had to be ruthless! He could not only be reacting to what others did to him. He would not wait for someone to attack him for him to justify it to himself and kill them. He would not wait for unknown beings to destroy his people for him to get the drive to stand against them. He would not only be reacting from now on!

Many emotions swirled in his mind as he pushed everything else aside and put calmness, carefulness, and ruthlessness at the forefront.

If it was time, he now held an abundant amount of it. This was not even to mention the Time Space in the Spiritual Land, but the acquiring of the Dagger of Time signified something obscenely huge.

The abilities of [Reversal], [Stop], and especially [Insight] would be something that would be paramount as he moved in the future. The biggest boon besides [Reversal] was [Insight].

He observed its details as he also confirmed that all the skills he obtained during his trip in the World of Cultivation were still on his Stat Panel. This was also adding the Ultimate Skill of {Sin of Gluttony} that held the devoured origin of a Celestial with all of his memories.

[Insight] :: Time can move in a myriad of ways, with no single being able to predict certainties among its chaos. Insight will show the wielder of the Dagger of Time possibilities of what could be. Requires Time Essence from the Regal Sheath in order to be used.

Another ability of the Dagger of Time would allow him to simulate possibilities of what could happen in the future! This was such a stupendous ability that beside [Reversal], Noah knew it would be the one that he would use the most.

He had been thinking for only a brief second, which was multiplied a thousandfold with his active {Parallel Thought} and {Hasten Mind} skills causing his thought process to move rapidly. It was only a few seconds after he had regained consciousness in this time before he even left for the World of Cultivation.

In the Spiritual Land, the beasts had felt the powerful burst of unknown energy they had not felt before as the Emperor Penguin and the Calamities of the Sea rushed to see what had occurred.

Their gazes became confused as they just found Noah on the ground. Barbatos’s figure also flashed in as she looked down quizzically .

"What just happened, little fish?"

Noah’s calm and steady gaze faltered a bit as he looked around at the beasts and Calamities around him. His eyes landed on the voluptuous Barbatos who was looking down questioningly as his figure disappeared and reappeared right next to her, swooping her in his arms before the silver light of teleportation covered them again.

They reappeared inside one of the luxurious houses of the Spiritual Land as a ravenous light flashed through Noah’s eyes.

"What are you- Ah..."

A barrier of silence enveloped the house as the beasts still in the underground layer looked around them awkwardly and scratched their heads before they each moved about to continue their training.

Time was a problem for many beings, but it was gradually being put under control for Noah as he found himself with more and more tools that could grant him an abundant amount of time.

The first thing was that he had returned back to a period of more than a week, and he knew the specific events that would occur during this time. The idea that it had barely been more than a week since he arrived in the World of Cultivation, learned the pill forging technique in the Karmic Sect, and then set off for the Devilish Abode felt weird toimagine as the events themselves seemed so numerous, but he knew how to make the most of these future events.

He began moving rapidly the moment he made his decision, adhering to new rules of extreme caution and carefulness where even if he had to make multiple plans based on the possibilities he foresaw with the use of the [Insight] ability in the Dagger of Time.

Not too long after the subjugation of the Demon World, a command was sent to a few specific Rulers as the magnificent Frozen Plateau Spiritual Land appeared above the Demon Capital.

Noah wore a simple blue robe as he conversed with the will of the Demon World about his first venture after his return through time- the obtainment of the Seven Deadly Sins that he had been making so much use of recently.

He had his hands on the Sin of Gluttony and the Sin of Pride, and he had seen the great uses for both. Now, he set his sight on all of them, and the possibilities that might open because of it. A cold light flashed through his eyes as the will of the Demon World proposed something stupendous.
