The two Sages of the Consummate Sword Expanse were still in disbelief as the powerhouses of the Infinite Galaxy were introduced to each other.

Kazuhiko was the welcoming Entity from Noah's people as he was the most friendly, going towards the weakened Sword Kings as his eyes glimmered excitedly when he saw the beings that lived all their lives attached to the Sword.

Since he was a Rank A Hunter, he had used a Katana as he was a fanatic of Swords from a young age, so when Noah's clones passed the Dao Crystals he obtained from the Immemorial Sword Dungeon to them...his excitement had risen through the roof!

Now that he got a chance to communicate with the Sword Kings themselves, he felt as if he had found his long lost brothers.

The entire Realm that they were on was built to be a Time Space, so Noah told the Sword Emperor and Kings that they could begin recuperating here as with just a day passing in the outside world, 100 days would pass in this location.

After seeing his show of power where the aura he released was even more oppressive than even the past Sword Emperor, they could only agree with disbelief as Noah also used the farming feature of the Infinite Galaxy to provide them with treasured Herbs that event Entities would have a hard time collecting.

Fruits and herbs that were filled with large amounts of essence, as well as Potions that Noah's clones had formed from the Alchemy Feature of the Infinite Galaxy were handed out as the weakened Entities and Sages sought to heal themselves somewhat before the battle began!

While the Sword Emperor and others were healing, Morgana angrily followed behind Noah as he floated in the skies looking at the Harbingers of Sin.

"You're all deserving of the ultimate loot as you worked hard...but a promise is a promise!"

RUMBLE

"The one to forge the path ahead the fastest would be the one to receive the most prized rewards, and that was the Emperor Penguin."

RAA!

The prideful cry of the Penguin was heard as he floated in front of everyone to bask in the glory!

Even Barbatos had an angry look on her expression as she nearly pouted at the fact that she wouldn't get to be the first Sage aside from Noah, but she reigned herself in as she didn't cause a scene.

Noah waved his hands as the glimmering Assimilation Crystals appeared in the skies, surrounding the Emperor Penguin that began to absorb them right then and there.

Nobody else even dared to go close as they only watched enviously as the power of the Emperor Penguin began to rise.

Off to the side, Morgana looked at this with shining eyes as her resonant voice rang out.

"So this is how you so quickly became a Sage? These Crystals just go ahead and increase the assimilation of Daos just from you absorbing them? This is just blatant cheating…"

The Sage had her eyes opened today on the ways others went to increase her power, thinking back to the thousands of years she spent as her eyes shook from the memories!

Noah merely nodded while watching the progress of the Emperor Penguin.

"Just some treasures I can make that can produce Entities and Sages, it isn't much!"

…!

The Harbingers of Sin looked at each other with smiles while Noah blatantly showed off, a few minutes passing as the aura of the Emperor Penguin rose ever higher.

In half an hour, the aura of a completely assimilated Lesser Dao was released from the sleek body of the Penguin as its golden beak shone with prideful luster.

Another hour passed, and the aura of a completely assimilated Grand Dao exploded out, the aura of the Emperor Penguin becoming even more condensed as with the full assimilation of two Daos, the skies above them parted grandly to allow the opening of a small hole- this hole releasing the wondrous Primordial Essence that went on to purify and welcome a new Sage!

RAA! RAA!

The Emperor Penguin roared out prideful as it withstood the pain of Purification of body and soul, coming out of this immense pain a few minutes later as a new being- the aura of a Sage grandly emanating from the body of the first beast of the Spiritual Land.

Once a floating landmass that birthed Rank S beasts, now an Infinite Galaxy that had its first Spiritual Beast become a Sage!

RAA!

The body of the Emperor Penguin shone gold as the light of Pride radiated from it, basking in all its glory as Noah saw the details of the aura wrapping around it that he also had the same of when he advanced to become a Sage.

{Aura of the Assimilator of the Sword} :: A passive aura that only appears around those who have fully comprehended and assimilated the Grand Dao of the Sword. It grants +10,000% Extra Damage, +10,000% Attack and Cast Speed, +100% Increased Soul Defence, and boosts all abilities of the Sword by 2000%. The user can also become one with the Sword as they obtain Sword Form- a form that doubles the boosts of this aura.

{Aura of the Assimilator of Withering} :: A passive aura that only appears around those who have fully comprehended and assimilated the Lesser Dao of Withering. It grants +5000% Extra Damage and allows the attacks of the Controller of Withering to contain a unique corrosive essence that deconstructs and reduces the attacks, mana, and life force of the target until they become empty husks. The user can now even corrode time itself as they can briefly slow the progression time in a certain area.

The stellar descriptions of the unique auras that swirled around those who assimilated Daos were displayed!

The Grand Daos came with even larger percentage boosts as some Lesser Daos had their own uniqueness.

Noah waved his hands to collect the remaining Assimilation Crystals that would only be enough to get one of his subordinates to progress through half of a Dao, not sufficient to increase their strength majorly as he would keep them for when he fully comprehended a Dao and wanted to assimilate it quickly!

He glanced at the newly advancing Sage that shone with the luster of pride as he smiled, his domineering voice ringing out in the surroundings.

"So making a Sage is this easy…"

RUMBLE!

A statement that was extremely arrogant, but also one that nobody could refute as Morgana was among the few still looking at this scene in shock!
