  His body disappeared from the First Realm of Hell as he reappeared miles away from where the doorway that led to it stood, at the same location that the Celestial Grandmaster had teleported him and Elder Spacewarp to give him the invitation of joining the Celestials.

  Noah's figure rapidly folded in upon itself as he activated an ability of the [Amorphous Space Beast] skill that led to the [Lesser Cthulhu] skill tree, using the ability of [Miniature Space] as his body fully disappeared and a small black dot that was barely discernible in the dark void space appeared.

  Inside the small Miniature Space where his body was contained in, Noah pulled out the Void Crystal that held the coordinates towards the Underworld as the small black dot began to tear through the void of space with extreme speeds.

  The next location was set. Now, it was only waiting to see what exactly waited for him as he learned more about the beings that stood against the Celestials.

  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.

  Chapter 301 - The Pureblood Vampyres

  The Underworld was a unique Prime World that stood above many Prime Worlds in terms of power. This was why even though many powers were surprised when they saw the name of a Vampyre Prince shine brightly on the leaderboard for the Infernal Hunt, they understood it as a fact when they connected this Prince to the Pureblood Vampyres of the Underworld.

  It was a powerful world that was filled with unique monsters and powerhouses, ranging from the Vampyres, to Werewolves, all the way to the race of Cyclops and other unique creatures.

  Out of all the organizations that were distributed across the wide Underworld though, the Vampyres were the most powerful, and the most secretive. They mostly kept to themselves as they continued to expand their lands and power, eventually becoming the known dominant force of the Underworld.

  Noah observed the ancient castles all around him t
hat made him feel like he was looking at an upgraded medieval era with monsters and magic as the ship that he and the Vampyre Prince were on landed squarely on a wide area behind one of the biggest castles in the huge metropolis they entered.

  The doors opened to a shimmering red carpet that led all the way to wide-open golden doors that led towards the castle, with the right and left sides of the red carpet filled with neatly dressed men and women that all had the look of butlers and maids.

  "Welcome back, O Great Prince."

  It was an amazing sight to come across as this prince who had most likely just left this castle for a few minutes came back and received a welcome as if he had left for years. The heads of all these beings that Noah felt to all be Vampyres were turned down respectfully as they spoke with reverent voices. Noah turned to the impassive face of Prince Cassius who had already begun walking across the red carpet as he followed along, the prince pointing to the large castle in front of them and speaking out.

  "This castle in front of you is the Royal Castle where many Vampyre Nobles reside."

  The large castle was filled with a dense aura of blood and regality as Noah ascertained that much, not spreading his aura out too much lest he catch the attention of some powerful character that could put a damper on his plans.

  They entered through the wide doors as even more neatly dressed butlers and maids gestured towards a door while bowing, speaking with reverential uniform voices that would make one feel a sense of awe and fear.

  "The food has been prepared, O Great Prince."

  Prince Cassius nodded as he led Noah further into the castle, bringing him to a wide hall that held a long regal rectangular table. On this table, gorgeously shining meats of rare beasts and animals were abundant, with golden inlaid cups and jugs holding a deep red liquid that glistened in the light. Noah's attention was grabbed by the resplendent assortment of foods, his nose wrinkling as he smelled the strong metallic scent of blood that permeated the wide room.

  The Prince's face turned grim as he turned to the nearby maids, his voice becoming hard and ringing out in the hall.

  "I told you all to prepare a meal for a guest."

  The voice was chilling as the maids that were just preparing the food felt their legs buckle, a unique aura erupting from Prince Cassius that forced them to their knees as they apologized with ashen faces.

  "We- we apologize O Great Prince. We didn't know the guest would be...we shall change it right away!"

  They scrambled towards the long table as they waved their hands, the abundant amount of cups and uniquely golden jugs holding the reddish liquids reducing quickly as the prince waved his hands and set out another command.

  "Leave us quickly. I expect no interruptions."

  Quick nods were given as butlers and maids ran out as if their lives depended on it, Prince Cassius offering Noah a seat while he himself sat right opposite him as he looked at Noah with peering eyes.

  "Alright, I still can't figure you out, so you'll have to be willing to share slightly more things about yourself today."

  Noah smiled at the peering words, about to reply when the recently closed door was flung open again, causing a vein to appear above the irascible Prince Cassius as he spoke without even turning around.

  "Did I not say there would be no interruptions?"

  "Now, I would never dare to interrupt your special time O Great Prince, it is just that your father has called for you...and your guest."

  A calm and jovial voice came out as the one to come in was an aged old man that held a vibrant aura, the large canines coming out of him glistening dangerously as he spoke out.

  The Prince's tone changed as he turned to look at this powerhouse at the peak of the Void Realm as he asked quizzically.

  "Father should still be in the meeting with the Council. I was going to have him meet my guest when he was finished."

  "It appears quite a few heads were turned because of your guest, some in the Vampyre Council showing great interest as well."

  The aged Vampyre replied with a respectful smile, saying words that turned the expression of the Prince sour as he replied his misgivings.

  "That is not the way I wanted this to play out."

  …

  A brief pause came as the bowing Vampyre straightened up and looked at the two figures sitting on the wide dining table filled with an overabundance of food as he now replied coldly, yet still respectfully.

  "It is what your father wanted."

  Prince Cassius turned passive as he heard this, a confused expression appearing on his face as many thoughts passed through his head, eventually turning towards Noah with an apologetic expression.

  "I apologize for this, it seems I cannot be a good host, and we must meet some old fogeys first."

  Noah's eyes shone at the rapid progression of events, nodding as he stood up along with the Vampyre Prince, their gazes landing on the smiling Vampyre that began leading them out of the wide dining hall and deeper into the castle where powerful auras were abundant.

  They passed through multiple halls and corners, and even ascended a few floors as the Butlers and Maids that they passed became more and more powerful, with multiple Transcendent Realm Vampyre maids dressed in voluptuous clothing standing outside wide doors that led to an expansive room.

  The old Vampyre bowed as his right hand pointed towards the room while speaking out once again, this time his words directed to Noah.

  "Please, enter into the Council Hall."

  The invitation was crisp as the door opened, Prince Cassius entering with a slightly angered expression while Noah entered the room calmly, the door closing behind them with a clang as the room opened up in front of their eyes.

  In this expansive room termed as the Council Hall, numerous auras honed in at Noah's position as his eyes stared straight to the far corner of the room where an exquisitely large bejeweled throne that screamed regality stood.

  On this throne, a being with blood-red eyes and a tight-fitting suit was looking directly at Noah, his expression of great interest as oppressive auras began to permeate the entire room.

  In less than an hour after his entrance into the Underworld, Noah was already meeting with the being that stood at the forefront of power for the strongest force established in this world!

  Chapter 302 - The Vampyre Council

  The Vampyre on the throne held a light smile as his gaze focused on the appearing figures of Noah and Prince Cassius. Around this wide and expansive Council Hall, there were multiple figures situated to the elevated platforms on the left and right sides that led towards the throne.

  Each of these figures were letting out levels of power no less than the Void Rank, with a few even surpassing it!

  "So this is the conundrum that even the little genius Cassius cannot solve?"

  The Vampyre on the throne spoke in a playful tone as he gazed towards his son. This Vampyre could not be called old, and actually had the figure of a man in the prime of his life, seemingly in his early 40s at most. This appearance would fool many beings as the actual age of this one being ranged in the hundreds of years.

  Prince Cassius moved forward, about to reply, when an immense aura suddenly shot forth from one of the elevated platforms and descended on Noah, a unique skill being cast that locked down space entirely!

  This change of events was rapid as a booming voice of power erupted from the right side of the elevated platform.

  "This issue can be solved right now. This unknown being observed our prince kill Celestial Disciples, and that is a dangerous knowledge that we cannot leave wandering outside this world. We should simply...kill!"

  OOONG

  Vibrations erupted out at the mention of these explosive words, Prince Cassius moving towards Noah as he looked up at the being speaking and replied with a grave tone.

  "Count Shytus, anymore disrespect towards my guest and you will earn my displeasure!"

  The Vampyre Prince's words were not filled with as much power as the bein
g that targeted Noah, but his body shone with a red glow as it forcefully caused the body of the one called Count Shytus to pull back, seemingly dominated by something else that was not just power!

  Noah observed this as many thoughts about the Vampyres passed through his mind, the subject of extremely unique bloodlines that could pressure beings no matter their rank of power coming up.

  Count Shytus pulled back his aura as he turned to the Vampyre on the throne and spoke out languidly.

  "O Great King, we know the power of Celestials. Should we really be placing our lives and the lives of our people on a being we don't even know the origins of, when we can just nip this in the bud right now?"

  The words were filled with strength, gaining the agreement of a few other beings situated on the elevated platforms of the wide hall. Quietness permeated the hall as everyone looked towards the Vampyre on the throne, the playful expression never leaving this being's face as he spoke towards Noah.

  "So, human with unknown origins. Why don't you tell us of your origins, and what exactly you wish to accomplish?"

  Complete silence reigned the moment this question was asked, all the powerful auras focusing on the next set of words coming out from this newly appearing being's mouth as it would decide where they stood on this very unpredictable issue.

  The problem at hand for the Vampyres was that their prince had acted and killed the Celestial Disciples, and he was observed by an unknown being while doing this!

  The Prince had mentioned the events thereafter when he and this being joined forces and even took down two more Celestial Disciples, which put a few old fogeys in a speculative mood, while others were still convinced and saw this as a grave threat. Because the moment that even the possibility of suspicion was thrown to the Pureblood Vampyres of the Underworld being enemies of the Celestials, it would be the complete eradication of all of them.
