Chapter 300 - Traversing Space, The Underworld

In the vastness of space, a single black dot shot forth at extreme speeds.

The starry space was filled with stars, making some regions shimmer with brilliant lights while other regions were completely filled with darkness. Noah, contained in the [Miniature Space] ability of the Amorphous Space Beast, traversed the vastness of space for an entire day and night. There wasn’t a rising or setting sun to show the passage of time, making him feel an unusual feeling as he counted the hours while staring at the worders around him.

He came across vibrant stars that seemed to be filled with life, and also chanced upon planets that held violent elemental storms within as not a single life form could be felt. The most extreme case in this journey was when he came across a star that was shockingly split apart into two pieces.

He had only observed the circular form that seemed to have a line cutting through it when he was far away in the distance, and he changed his direction briefly as he went to observe this phenomenon. The closer he came, the larger the star became as he shockingly saw numerous asteroids floating around this star that was split into two pieces.

His size was extremely minuscule compared to the large shattered star he was looking at, his attention only hanging around this shocking scene briefly as he viewed the broken planet to see what could have caused such a thing. No answers could be ascertained as he looked at this as a sort of reminder for what fate could befall the numerous stars and continued on his journey.

It was an extremely boring and eye-opening trip as he expanded his horizons and crossed multiple Small and Large Worlds, even chancing upon a Prime World that he didn’t even get near of lest he be sensed by some monstrous powers.

He continued forward for another day before he neared the coordinates that the Void Crystal which the Vampyre Prince had given him to foretold. In his expanding sight, the view of a mystically shining planet gradually enlarged and came to view.

The planet in front of him was different from the ones he came across, being even bigger than the World of Cultivation, and having something that Noah had not yet come across with his own eyes. He stared curiously at the enlarging planet that had...a shimmering grey barrier all around it.

The barrier seemed extremely thin, like it could be broken at any moment, but Noah knew this wasn’t the case as just from the single location he was observing from, he could sense life forms not too far from the barrier that were most likely stationed there as guards.

This was the first star that he had come across which held something as unique as a barrier, making him even more interested in understanding just what type of forces were dwelling in it.

The Void Crystal that should have been leading him to the location where the Pureblood Vampyres resided in the Underworld shone a black light as it seemed to have sensed something and sent a signal forth, with Noah only waiting a few minutes as he shockingly noticed a wide octagonal shape opening up in the shimmering barrier, a black interstellar warship shooting out a few seconds later as it neared his position.

The ship held a sleek design, being much smaller than the ones that he previously saw around the doorway that led to the First Realm of Hell. It came close to him as it stopped a few meters away, a grandiose door opening as beside it stood a dashingly handsome Vampyre Prince.

He was looking at the black dot stationed in space as he observed it bloom, the form of a calm dark-haired young man in his 20s appearing magnificently as a sharp light passed through the Prince’s eyes.

"You seem to always have another face when I see you."

Prince Cassius gave a light greeting as Noah seamlessly floated towards the ship with his original human body, a light smile appearing on his face as he expected this prince to at least be surprised at seeing a Saint Realm individual like him float in space with no issues, but it seemed he had left too strong of an impression when he left this Prince the last time.

"This is my actual form, not the Crixus of the World of Cultivation. The name is Noah, Noah Osmont."

Prince Cassius nodded, his imposing sight checking Noah up and down as he entered into the ship that shot back to the octagonal space still open in the barrier. Noah wasn’t bothered with the probing gaze of the Vampyre Prince as he had prepared sufficiently while he was traveling over here, using the Dagger of Time multiple times to check for the different possibilities that could play out for this trip to the Pureblood Vampyre’s abode.

In almost all of the possible scenarios, no harm would befall him, and he only stood to benefit as he learned more about this covert force that was sleeping right under the Celestials’ nose.

He observed the octagonal shape quickly closing behind them the moment the ship passed through, the voice of Prince Cassius ringing out again as they entered the main room of the small ship they were on.

"Your story has raised quite a few heads, with my Father looking forward to meeting someone that is as bold as I am."

The high echelons of the Pureblood Vampyres were wondering who the being that was bold enough to take the life of Celestial Disciples could be, and more so what unknown force this being represented!

Noah smiled at this as he observed the new world unfolding itself in front of him. The Vampyre Prince’s people seemed to have questions about him, and he had even more questions about them as he would come to understand exactly what kind of force they were.

The ship they were on broke through the clouds as the grandiose sight of one of the lands of the Underworld made itself apparent in Noah’s eyes. One couldn’t see the dreary atmosphere that they would come to imagine when the thought of ’Underworld’ entered their minds. What Noah saw was a magnificent sight of a shining metropolis that was filled with grandiose ancient castles that screamed regality.

The largest of these ancient castles were cl.u.s.tered at the center of the wide lands that expanded to the horizon. Noah could not find a location that looked barren as everything around him shone with uniqueness.

The ship they were on neared the centermost region of this wide country, these wide lands that were under the control of the Pureblood Vampyres as Noah made his entrance into the Underworld.
