Chapter 107: Chapter 108: Robbery and escape
Sitting in his grow room, Noah focused on his Omega symbol before speaking.
"Nexus!
Scan my body."
"Beep!"

Noah smirked as he saw this status panel in front of him.
The levels shown by Nexus were based on the level system of the magus world, where a rank 0 existence would be a common mortal and a rank 9 existence would be someone at the top of a universe.
In this way, he could better classify the power levels of the various worlds using this as a basis.
Now, his level of willpower, although considered in this world to be level 6, in this new power system was classified as a rank 4, someone capable of destroying a country with a single attack.
Fixating on the hevenly devourer ability for a moment, Noah recalled that two years ago, the last soul devourer insect left alive successfully evolved after devouring all of its brethren.
Pulling it out of its spirit sea, he took it directly into his stomach and activated his hevenly devourer and the devoured ability of the Hellfrost Peacock.
A golden insect, an ice peacock and a dark insect roared before starting a battle inside Noah's stomach.
Noah concentrated and strengthened his stomach with his willpower so that it would not be torn apart by the three devouring forces fighting for control.
The struggle of the three beasts continued for half an hour before all three beasts died.
In their place, their remains were left.
These remains contained fragments of an extremely powerful law, the law of devouring.
The three essences merged together and became a tiny black hole that floated inside Noah's stomach.
Along with the formation of this black hole, a piece of information appeared in his mind.
The devouring abilities of the three creatures merged to create a new, even stronger devouring ability.
This devouring ability allowed him to devour matter energy and spirit without waste and turn them into their purest essences before nourishing his being with them.
"Assign a name to the new ability."
"Hmmm...stick with the same name as before, heavenly devourer."
"Beep!
Skill name set."
Turning off the holographic display, he set about thinking about his next steps to take.
Glancing at the counter at the bottom of his holographic display, Noah sighed.
Ten years remained before an event that would shake the entire galaxy.
The crown prince of the finite people, the race that was at constant war with the humans, would carry out a conspiracy to wipe out most of the energy machinist sects.
It would also be time for Noah to leave this world.
"I have to reach rank 9 as soon as possible."
With his goal already decided, he contacted Magna and Lena using the Omega chip to proceed with the following plan before hanging up the call.
A year ago they both reached level 6 and had already awakened their trueselfs.
Noah's gaze turned serious before focusing and using the space portal spell.
A small, almost minuscule space rift opened in front of him.
Immediately after, he teleported to the other side and activated his magic gourd, absorbing everything in the place.
He had only a few seconds and needed to collect everything he could before escaping.
An alarm began to sound as soon as the space rift opened and within seconds the rank 7 and possibly rank 8 guards would be on the scene.
As the gourd swallowed more than two-thirds of the secret vault's resources, someone opened a portal and was about to teleport out.
Noah put the gourd away decisively before smiling at the rank 8 energy machinist who barely managed to poke his head through the portal before Noah disappeared from sight.
In the two sects of Magna and lena something similar happened.
...
In a cave in a faraway place, the three of them appeared through different portals.
Without wasting time on unnecessary greetings, Noah pulled out the space gate and opened a portal to a distant planet before the three disappeared next to the gate, leaving behind only a bomb that exploded, disturbing the entire area and erasing their traces and remnant auras.
A couple of seconds later, a terrifying aura arrived in the area.
From the fluctuations of the aura, it could be perceived that it was someone in rank nine.
The man who appeared was enraged to see that there was no remnant aura left with which he could locate the trio and launched a terrifying force field that shattered the cave.
On the other hand, Noah and company appeared in a small hut on a small planet that Noah chose for his escape.
Seeing that the other two were okay, he let out a sigh of relief before bursting out laughing.
The other two, despite having their backs drenched in cold sweat, also laughed knowing that the plan was a success.
Although they had now basically become fugitives, they didn't care, the power machinists' days were numbered anyway.
Going outside, the three of them took out their space devices and began to take out everything they looted.
A large mountain of natural resources, weapons, secret manuals and other things piled up in front of the small hut.
They began sorting the various items into different sections before Noah sucked them into the magic gourd and put them into a separate one.
Because they were the treasures of two advanced level sects and one maximum level sect, the sheer amount of resources was immense and it took the three of them two weeks of uninterrupted work before they finally put everything in its place.
Noah poured the manuals and techniques directly into Nexus' data analysis compartment, letting the computer scan and copy all that information.
Then the three of them sat down to consume the various resources.
Noah consumed non-stop until his will space was saturated.
Then all that energy condensed into a translucent crystal that floated behind his trueself.
This was the origin crystal, a crystal made of crystallized willpower.
One needed to condense eight of these crystals to advance to level 7.
A few moments later, Magna also suddenly trembled, a sign that she had condensed her first origin crystal.
A few moments later, Lena also condensed her source crystal.
All three continued to absorb nonstop for the next year.
Eventually, eight crystals formed and floated behind their trueselfs.
Despite this, none of the three rushed forward.
Pulling out ten planetary cores, Noah swallowed them one by one until his will space was completely saturated.
But because eight crystals had already formed, which was the limit one could withstand, that energy did not condense into a new crystal.
The flaming humanoid suddenly opened its eyes before clasping its hands together.
The surrounding energy began to gather in his hands and continuously condense.
Finally, a ninth crystal condensed between the trueself's hands.
Unlike the other crystals, this one was golden in color.
The crystal flew out of the trueself's hands before settling in the center, surrounded by the other eight crystals.
The crystals began to slowly rotate, as if they were planets surrounding the central crystal as its sun.
Although it was slow at first, with each new revolution, the crystals doubled their speed of rotation.
One month.
Three months.
A year.
It wasn't until a full year had passed that the crystals reached their maximum speed of rotation.
Because of the blinding brightness they caused, they looked like eight stars surrounding a sun at their center.
Finally, the sun released a strange vibration that caused the stars around it to begin to rotate around it.
Very quickly, they went from one revolution per minute to an incalculable speed.
Now, instead of stars, it looked like a ring of light surrounding the sun.
The sun continued to spin and shake until it reached a limit.
Suddenly, the ring of light shrank and collided with the sun in the center, causing an explosion, releasing an enormous amount of energy.
All that energy reorganized and reformed into a large golden wheel that floated behind the trueself.
The wheel released a golden glow that bathed the entire space of will, bathing the trueself and the synthesized beasts in light.
Ouroboros raised his head and roared, feeling his aura rise from rank 6 to rank 7.
The other 100 Wyverns did the same.
As the glaring light faded, the 100 Wyverns turned into a golden light before entering the golden wheel.
For each wyvern that entered, a mysterious mark on the wheel lit up.
Ouroboros climbed up the trueself's leg before curling over its arm and folding its wings.
As the 100 wyverns entered the wheel, the advancing process finally ended and the trueself's aura finally stabilized.
Opening his eyes, Noah emanated an extremely terrifying aura.
He had reached rank 7.
Two similar auras came from both Magna and Lena, announcing their arrival at rank 7 as well.
The three of them completely released their auras, turning into three huge beasts of a thousand meters each.
A wyvern, a stag and a raven.
The three looked at each other before rising into the air.
The stag and the raven flew straight at the wyvern, who dodged them both before grabbing the raven with its legs and hurling it at the stag.
The stag dodged before opening its mouth and launching a breath attack, which the wyvern countered with an attack of its own.
Suddenly, a great volley of golden feathers shot towards the wyvern's back at full speed.
Without missing a beat, the wyvern unfurled one of its wings to cover its back at the same time as it deployed a barrier of willpower that covered the wing.
The feathers collided with the protective barrier and although they penetrated it, they could do nothing to the wing as its momentum was lost as the protective barrier was destroyed.
Still with its mouth open, launching the breath attack against the deer, the wyvern swung its long tail and viciously struck the raven behind it.
It then moved at great speed behind the deer before wrapping its two gigantic wings around it and launching a breath attack straight into its mouth.
The deer disintegrated, leaving Magna in the center.
Because he restrained himself, the deer did not hurt him.
On the other hand, lena also deactivated her transformation, causing the golden crow to disintegrate into points of light that entered her body.
Noah did the same, returning to his normal form.
"Not bad, you two."
Opening his datapad, Noah began to read.
Ost: Noah Eclipsis Regis Astaros.
Lineage: Lineage of the Great Demon God (30%).
Levels:
Body: Initial rank 3.
Soul: Maximum rank 2.
Will: Starting rank 5(level 7)
Energy:
Mech Will: Rank 3 (starting rank 5).
Mana: Starting rank 4.(Blue)
Dantian: Starting rank 4.
Now that he had reached level 7, his existence reached the equivalent of rank 5.
Looking inside his body, Noah felt a thin layer of golden energy covering his organs, muscles and bones.
It was the level 7 will energy that covered and protected his body, raising it to rank 3.
The three of them returned to their previous cultivation sites and continued to consume the resources in their hands for the next few years.
Time continued to pass.
The trueself continued to grow and become more and more compact as its aura continued to grow larger and larger.
One day, the wheel behind the trueself let out a humming sound before all the surrounding willpower was directed to its center, slowly condensing.
Slowly, a small golden seed began to form at the center of the golden wheel.
As Noah consumed more resources, the small seed grew larger and larger.
When it reached its limit, the seed blossomed, revealing a small crystal at its center.
The crystal swallowed the petals of the seed before vibrating slightly.
Noah opened his eyes and felt his newfound strength.
He had reached level 8 willpower.
Looking at the bottom of his data pad, he saw that the next big event was 3 years away.
