The first time his consciousness seeped into the crack between Realities gave Noah a unique feeling. A feeling of him being someplace he shouldn't as the surroundings of this spacetime themselves were extremely eerie and off putting!

  It felt like a place existences shouldn't be in as the moment he entered it, Noah's soul formed into the physical figure of his body. Eyes as blue as the seas, black hair flowing on his head gloriously, and a cluster of a few Universes visible on his chest to show his grand title as an Antiquity at the Universal Filament Realm.

  The surroundings around him were a mixture of bleak darkness, with occasional shimmering colorful lines leading to unknown locations crossing this bleak darkness!

  Noah found himself focusing on these lines as near him, there were three that shot off in different directions as they respectively shone in blue, red, and green. Each of these lines represented a possible connection onto a new Reality…and Noah could choose to connect to these and see what was required of him before he could seamlessly use this connection and descend, or he could search for other lines similar to this that might have different requirements and restrictions.

  From the understanding of the Usurper, different Realities had different descriptions depending on their level of development and the strongest of existences within that Reality! Someone with the ability of the Usurper or the Sword of Shattered Reality in hand might only take a few days to establish a connection and descend onto a fairly weak Reality, or they might take weeks if it was a reality where across its Cosmos, powerful existences far above the strength of Antiquities existed!

  Beings that could look at the power of Antiquities and find it laughable…such Realities were extremely hard to descend unto as even the Usurper only had some theories and he didn't fully know why.

  'But these lines before me…' The lines before Noah's eyes ranged in how thick they were, with Noah's soul going forward as he came in contact with the largest one first.

  THRUM!

  His mind was flooded with a vast amount of information the moment he did, a lot of his consciousness becoming swallowed up as from it- he was able to find layers and layers of essence blocking his way forward!

  These layers had behind them innumerable lights that represented Cosmos, with Noah being able to send his consciousness to any of these Cosmos for him to begin establishing a connection and plan to descend. But before he could send his soul fully and descend……he had to get past the many layers of defenses that protected these Cosmos.

  He could do this with a purely strong soul or if he had a unique treasure, where if the Sword of Shattered Reality was not entirely broken and could be used to its full potential, he could have used it to straight away descend unto any Reality!

  Another way for him to get past the restrictions and descend unto a Cosmos of a Reality was for the inhabitants of that Cosmos to carry his own energy signature, and he could do this by influencing them as if he had a sufficient enough following within a Cosmos……his soul could more easily pass through the barriers and descend.

  He had to extend his influence to cover a portion of these Cosmos……and he would be given a smooth pathway through! For this, he would have to rely on the and the other debuffing abilities that could span entire Universes, where even these could only be cast after he allowed a sufficient amount of his soul to squeeze in.

  It was a lot of restrictions and layers of work he had to do, but the rewards were stupendous!

  "Hooo…" Noah's soul stopped the contact with the largest line of Reality after he saw its restrictions, going forward to touch the other 2 smaller lines near him as he was able to see what the differences would be.

  If he tried to descend onto the largest Reality that he first touched, it would take him at least a month before he would be able to pass through its barriers, while the smallest Reality would take him merely a week at most!

  Just a week for his soul to attach to a Cosmos and influence a portion of it before it could pierce through the gaps of the boundaries between Realities and descend down.

  With such a truth before him, Noah didn't hesitate as he turned his focus fully onto the smallest line, his figure sitting down in a meditative position in the space around him as he fully came in contact with the boundaries of a new Reality……and tried to pierce through them.

  He had a singular focus as even though he couldn't get even 95% of his soul through the boundaries, wisps of it went through as he went forward to latch on to a random Cosmos within this Reality!

  This soul was his seed and will, and as soon as it bloomed and influenced the existences within the Universes of this Cosmos, Noah could send more portions of his soul until he would have sufficient power to forcefully cast the wide area debuffing abilities like the ——

  In a certain Universe of a different Reality.

  A Hegemony was looking behind him with an ashen expression as he was being chased across the void of space, a party of three Hegemonies not too far away from him as they had been chasing him from one Galaxy to another!

  His mana reserves were nearly dry as he felt the threat of death approaching, but he continued to tear through the chaotic void as he would not give up until he was on his last breath!

  'All I did was sleep with just two of their wives, that's enough to come for my life?!'

  He never thought he would be found out, nor that the Hegemonies within his own faction would chase him to death because of it. But as his mana reserves neared depletion, he was unresigned to die as there were still many things he wanted to do!

  He truly wanted to live, and would grasp at whatever lay before him to do so.

  'Oh?!'

  In the corner of his eyes, he suddenly saw a shimmering golden light flashed a few miles away, and his figure instantly changed directions as he appeared at the location of the golden light in an instant.

  He shouldn't stop when he was being chased, but he felt like he had to for this golden light as when he looked before him……he found a broken sword that was releasing powerful hums of power, this sword just floating serenely in the chaotic void!

  "This…"

  Excitement shot through him as he saw it was a powerful treasure- a treasure that might actually save him from his predicament!

  He reached out and grabbed onto its hilt smoothly as he sent his essence into it, finding a powerful type of essence shooting back into him akin to a feedback as he felt his body strengthened from it. This essence was extremely pervasive as this Hegemony would normally not allow it to so freely flow inside him, but he let all reservations loose at this moment so he could gain its power and fight off the death that was coming to him.

  "Open yourself up to me!" The Hegemony bellowed out as churned all his remaining mana into the broken sword that was actually the soul form of Noah's only wisp that has managed to squeeze through, it's essence seeping into this being as the soul of the Usurper began to latch on to its first subject……a subject that would go on to be influenced into putting even more existences of this Universe under Noah!

  The more the influence spread, the more wisps of his soul Noah could send through as very soon……he could forcefully cast his own abilities and instantly descend unto the Universes of this Cosmos within a brand new Reality….
