Throughout the Cosmos, a weeping cry reverberated out as many knowledgeable beings were alerted to the supposed death of a Universe that had been separated from the Cosmos over a hundred thousand years ago.

With the vast Cosmos, a few knew the meaning behind it, but not a single being knew what it truly represented!

It was actually one of the very few Keystone Events- Events throughout history that would go on to be a springboard for the direction of an entire Cosmos.

The terrifying Universal Realm Hegemonies overseeing the Primordial Cosmos did not know this.

The wills of the many Universes did not know this!

The being who initiated this event himself...even he didn't know this!

---

In the Animus Universe.

There were only two beings within this Universe that noticed the phenomenon, both of them raising their heads as sharp lights crossed through their eyes.

One was the individual that birthed the Dao of Summoning, her eyes shimmering with starry lights as the moment the weeping finished, she turned her attention to the abundant amount of information she was receiving on the usage of the Dao she created, her eyes continuing to be locked on the Animus Universe!

Meanwhile...the other individual had a devious light flash across his eyes as he also turned his attention to the happenings within the Animus Universe, his fingers continuing to move as bright lights released from them- with this being having his own motives!

Neither of the experts could have known the weeping was connected to a special being.

A being that would very soon be descending onto the very same Animus Universe they had their eyes on!

Inside the Universal Core, the beings within merely felt the starry space tremble as with every passing second since the upgrade of the Infinite Galaxy began, where they felt the atmospheric mana of the surroundings rise exponentially over the next few hours!

The Sages within noticed this phenomenon the most as they tried to spread their aura out of the Infinite Galaxy to see what was happening outside...only to find they were blocked from doing so.

Blocked!

They could only shockingly remain to observe the changes as after a few hours, things began to settle while leaving behind something that caused the inhabitants of the Infinite Galaxy to move around in a stupor.

The atmospheric essence throughout the expansive Galaxy that held an uncountable number of stars...had grown to such an extent that all around, rivers of condensed essence could be seen!

Rivers of essence!

Aside from this, the concentration of universal law essence was also so dense that liquid wisps of multiple law essences could be seen on all the uncountable numbers of stars and planets within the Universal Core.

The most visible changes to the inhabitants of the upgraded Universal Core was this shocking condensation of essence that would make it unbelievably easy for beings to advance on the path of power.

"He has made a Holy Land of Cultivation…"

The Sword Emperor was looking around the rivers of essence all around them as he spoke, the place they were in seeming like a paradisiacal Holy Land meant only for the highest beings to be in.

Morgana was sighing wistfully as while she looked at the sweeping changes around them, she stared at the new Sages that had sprouted in the last few days.

Even they who were the locals of this place for much longer than them looked to be in a stupor as they ran their hands over the rivers of essence flowing out, the voice of a particular being just turned Sage beginning to reverberate out in jovial laughter!

"Haha, what did I tell you guys? I wouldn't be surprised if Noah has somehow advanced the Spiritual Land into a mini Universe or something...ah!"

Kazuhiko had a bright smile as all the others around him digested his words, their eyes looking around them as they wanted to ask the being himself what had happened!

RUMBLE!

They didn't have to wait long as Noah's main body flashed into the Universal Core with a light smile, a Cosmic Treasure by his side as he looked around at the progress of the beings within it.

He had been looking at the wondrous feature of Dao Birth as he chose not to rush it for the time being, seeing as how he had only 3 chances to birth Daos as of right now. He would continue gathering information as he formulated possibilities of Daos before he moved to enact them!

His eyes glimmered with the light of possibilities as he looked at the beings that had been training hard for the past 2 months, his voice ringing out.

"The apocalypse of the Dark Universe isn't a worry anymore, with the only thing remaining now being our own choices on how to move forward…"

Noah began to speak with his people as he waved his hands to call forth all of his Animus Summons that pulsate with the shocking strength at Great Sage just like him.

"Tiamat, come forward!"

He beckoned to the domineering Queen Dowager who was only servile towards him, with her gaze remaining cold and ruthless when she gazed upon all others!

Her voluptuous humanoid void came to stand beside Noah as she looked towards everyone else, Noah's voice continuing to ring out.

"Let us talk about what we do from here...let us talk about the Universe we reside in and the Primordial Cosmos...let us talk about the Animus Universe!"

RUMBLE!

Terrifying lights passed across the eyes of all the powerful beings within the Universal Core as at this moment, a shocking discussion began about the Primordial Cosmos they were all initially from...and the Animus Universe where Tiamat, the Blue Slime...and all other Summoned Animus came from.

The voluptuous Tiamat that used to be a Ruler of an entire section of the Animus Universe was at the forefront of the discussion, a few hours passing as the Sages and Great Sages of the Dark Universe planned!

When all was over and done, Kazuhiko had a profound expression as while everyone was digesting information, he rose up with a bright smile while speaking out.

"So what you're telling me is...that it is time for us to explore and conquer Universes?"

RUMBLE!

Noah glanced at the raucous new Sword Emperor as he gazed across the Universal Core.

"I'm not sure about conquering with the powerful Universal Realm hegemonies who can birth Daos running around the Cosmos, but exploring...will definitely be something I'll be doing!"

His eyes turned to observe every being around him as they landed on Tiamat.

"We have unlimited possibilities on what we can do, with our first step being the Animus Universe."

…!

"There, one of our own was stripped from her throne from the collusion of forces that should have been her allies. We'll move carefully as we start in this Universe first...we shall first explore the Animus Universe as we gain more understanding of the Primordial Cosmos!"

RUMBLE!
