Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chapter 152 - Something beautiful

What was the most beautiful thing in the world?

Was it wealth? Power? Freedom? Or the company of a beautiful man or woman?

Many people had differing opinions on what they considered beautiful, but Noah felt like the sight in front of him was the most beautiful thing he was seeing since his birth. The resplendently shining skill books, cores, items, and sparkling crystals piled up to a mountain really was too beautiful to look at.

He had pushed himself and spammed as many skills as he could in the last moments when the MYTHICAL cultivator began burning his core for a last-minute gamble. Terrible skills that tore apart the surrounding seas were targetted towards the valiant cultivator. He had fallen completely after his body became shredded by the many attacks that surrounded him, and Noah was near to take his body and loot into his storage pouch.

This wasnʼt the first body he collected, as any previous cultivators he killed were taken into his storage pouch or Spiritual Land. The [Emperor Penguin] had the job of moving around the battlefield and transporting all defeated enemies into the spiritual land with his unique powers of teleportation.

When the battle here was finished, he was capable enough as he even brought back the bodies of the LEGENDARY Disciples that were running away. Noah found himself thinking how this arrogant penguin wasnʼt too bad after all. He wouldnʼt kick it off of the fluffy couches when he saw it lazing around next time.

When the battle was done, his [Fiendish Sword Beast Transformation] was released as he appeared in the golden haired body of the Atlantean next to the Golden Commander that had his powerful trident raised high in the air, shouting for victory.

The inhabitants of Aquicadis city had effectively stopped and taken down the invaders with minimal casualties. The Golden Commander looked over at Noah and expressed his goodwill as soon as he saw the body that was fully Atlantean.

”Brother, youʼve found yourself some very good allies and a peculiar set of skills”

The Merman said this as he looked towards the long [White Mamba], [Emperor Penguin], and the other beasts congregating together. A skill that allowed you to fully transform into another creature was rare in the sea, especially when that creature was not sea-based, but it wasnʼt something that never appeared.

”Yes. I was lucky enough to form some close bonds after I explored some islands a while back.”

Noah had been feeling really happy, so he replied with a smile as his eyes wandered at the pile of defeated cultivators and loot in his storage pouch that he couldnʼt wait to get through.

”At least allow me to host you in my City before you head towards Atlantis, youʼll need a full belly, as well as some information that should help you avoid the dangerous parts.”

The Merman continued to show goodwill after the battle, and Noah was on the tip of his toes with impatience to go through all the loot, but he breathed out to calm himself down while chanting ʼPatienceʼ in his mind. It wouldnʼt be too bad to collect more information about the dangers of crossing to lower zones of the sea, and information from a MYTHICAL Merman was not something to laugh at.

He put the piles of shining loot out of his mind for now as he and the five LEGENDARY beasts went towards the City of Aquicadis with the cheering groups of Atlanteans and Merfolk.

The LEGENDARY beasts had no problems being under the water, and could even create bubbles of air similar to the cultivators if they wished. They looked curiously around them as it was the first time being out of the Spiritual Land in a while.

Merfolk swarmed curiously around the body of a certain sleek penguin as they found its arrogant beak that always seemed to point to the skies to be very interesting.

RAA!

A celebratory night was spent in the underwater City of Aquicadis as Noah and the beasts got a chance to enjoy the delicacies of a new world. It was a very weird sight to see as they watched fish go on to eat other fish, but they didnʼt complain. The Merfolk ate anything they caught raw, while the Atlanteans preferred to cook their meals in their areas that were surrounded by protective bubbles where they roamed like humans inside.

Reinforcements from a nearby city came later, and only got the chance to enjoy the festivities and not the battle. Hours passed like this as Noah talked to the Golden Commander while enjoying the food, learning about a few more things that werenʼt in the memories of the weak Atlanteans he had taken down some time back.

After the festivities died down a bit, Noah said his goodbyes to the Golden Commander as he prepared to set off again, this time wanting to take the shortest route to reach Atlantis. The meeting of powerful humans from the World of Cultivators had roused his sense of adventure, and he wanted to start on the plans for those as soon as his current goals were achieved.

Demons, Atlanteans, Cultivators.

There were many groups he had met so far, but the goals remained the same. The one he was going after now lied in the city at the center of the Lost World, Atlantis.

The Golden Commander nodded as he saw he couldnʼt keep Noah behind any longer, saying his last appreciative words.

”The title of Champion is special, and only those at the Neon Commander stage can fight for it. If you are successful among the many powerful champions, a prize that is the peak combination of sorcery and biomedical engineering awaits for you, so work hard!”

The Merman let out powerful words that caused a shining light to cross Noahʼs eyes as he nodded, thinking about the many treasures he could obtain from Atlantis. This civilization that combined technology and magic, he really wanted to get his hands on their creations!

His blood pumped as he left behind the City of Aquicadis with the beasts and continued to make his path downwards, finding a time to stop after a few minutes to go into the Spiritual Land to count his rewards first.

The cultivators were not stingy at all, giving him a resplendent pile of rewards that he began going through. First and foremost were the secret techniques that the cultivators of the Mountain Sea Sect were using.

EPIC :: [Mountain Sea Sectʼs Second Style- Blue Fortress]

LEGENDARY :: [Mountain Sea Sectʼs Third Style- Healing Water]

LEGENDARY :: [Mountain Sea Sectʼs Fourth Style- Wings of the Sea]

MYTHICAL :: [Mountain Sea Sectʼs Fifth Style- Descent of the Emperor]

MYTHICAL :: [Mountain Sea Sectʼs Sixth Style- Dragon Form]

The cultivators...were truly giving.

Disciple Bob and the other two known to be in Violet Core dropped the LEGENDARY skills that were the third and fourth secret techniques of the Mountain Sea Sect. The Rebirth Realm cultivator gifted the first skills of MYTHICAL rank that Noah got his hands on, and they were spectacular, to say the least. He already received the first form from the EPIC disciple he had covertly taken before he joined the battle, and now he hed the second form too, which granted him all the 6 forms he had seen the cultivators use in this battle.

He was itching to try the most powerful style of the secret techniques, but held off and looked at the crystals that thrummed with an enticing power.

[Low-level Water Crystal] :: A crystal containing the acc.u.mulations of the Law of Water. An insignificant portion is contained.

[Mid-level Water Crystal] :: A crystal containing the acc.u.mulations of the Law of Water. A small portion is contained.

[High-level Water Crysta] :: A crystal containing the acc.u.mulations of the Law of Water. A significant portion is contained.

There were multiple of these gorgeously shining crystals that were one of the three most prized loot to be received from the cultivators. The secret techniques that turned into skills was the first, these crystal containing acc.u.mulations of a certain law were the second, and the third was of course...the memories.

Noahʼs eyes shined and his face remained impassive as he looked towards the many defeated enemies he could use {Memory Plunderer} on. Just how big a picture of the World of Cultivation could he build with their memories?
