A grand procession was taking place at this moment above the Sanctuary of the Sublunary Plan. The ascension and return of Dimensional Ruler Catherine was taking place, this powerful Ruler returning to the Empyrean Plane as her mission here was complete!
She only glanced behind her once to observe the figures of Noah and Annalise before her expression hardened, and she took the steps forward while her body vibrated with power at the STAR Rank.
Gradually, she faded up the steps that seemed endless, edging higher and higher until her figure disappeared.
Noah looked at such a scene with dazzling eyes as he nodded his head, knowing that all he had to do now was wait for things to fall into place.
"When do you expect your...business to start?"
The voice of Annalise rang out beside Noah thoughtfully, making him laugh as he thought of the plans he made with Catherine. This was the business she referred to, being one of the ways Noah planned to tap into the resources of the Empyrean Plane!
"Catherine is just the first test, so I'm not entirely sure when it will start! When I see how things go with her, I'll slowly complete the missions of the Disciples I've subjugated before I send them back into the Empyrean Plane to entrench themselves into their Conclaves and slowly rise in power and influence there…"
…!
Shocking plans were spoken of freely by Noah, the brother and sister soon moving away from the Golden Stairway of Ascension as they returned to the enormous Structure of the Sanctuary that they were currently using as the base of Operations.
There were still a myriad of things to be done, with most of them being for Noah to delve into the uncountable number of Dimensional Rifts within the vast Sublunary Plane! After that, he could slowly eat up the benefits of the features of the Idle Gaming System, especially continuing the search for the Fate Spirits again.
The Fate Spirits that could lead him to an Incandescent Fate Treasure Plane that had beasts capable of dropping Dao Crystals...this rare existence had evaded him no matter how many waves of the Infinite Crucible he cleared or how many floors of the Tower of Champions and the Shattered Planes Dimensional Rifts he climbed!
But as he used his mana to see the bursts of fate and chaos around himself, he saw that this chance would bring itself to him soon enough.
He busied himself with his tasks and the management of the Sublunary Plane as the seeds he planted began to sprout in many directions.

In a certain region of the Empyrean Plane.
The very atmosphere was different within this plane compared to the Sublunary Plane, just the mere concentration of atmospheric essence being more condensed than the lower Plane!
At this moment, a special existence was ascending from the Golden Stairway of Ascension as she didn't arrive in the area where many beings would first arrive when they ascended. This was because Catherine had a marker on her Conclave.
This marker allowed for her ascension to teleport her back into a special formation set up by her Conclave as at this moment, she appeared in the middle of a huge runic circle in the depths of one of the major forces of the Empyrean Plane.
THRUM!
Essence was vibrating within the runic magic circle stably as it calmed down, the figure of Catherine becoming clear as before she even opened her eyes, she felt the auras of multiple beings staring in her direction outside of the runic magic circle!
These beings knew of her return as she told them in advance, her eyes landing on multiple middle-aged elders of her Tenebrous Conclave!
Each of them had bodies that thrummed powerfully with ridiculous waves of power, each of these existences being powerfully far above the STAR Rank as they even surpassed the rank of NEBULA!
The few Elders were standing respectfully behind a certain middle aged man, this being actually coming out to be the strongest among them as on his chest, one could shockingly see a glimmering illusory QUASAR.
This was actually a stage far above anything that even Noah had come across, with it being 3 ranks away from the Star Forging Realm!
The ranks went from STAR to NEBULA, and then from a NEBULA to BLACK HOLE...and only after that could someone form a shocking quasar within their Origin as they stepped onto the QUASAR Realm! Each of these stages had their own uniqueness when advancing that will be delved into at a later time, but the being at the very forefront that had an illusory quasar on his chest stepped towards Catherine with an impassive face as he spoke.
"Show me."
WAA!
His voice alone was enough to terrify any STAR Rank being, but Catherine actually clicked her lips as she obeyed, a powerful aura of a Grand Dao rising from her as it caused the eyes of the Elders and the powerful man who commanded to flash with light!
This was because they saw the particles of the Grand Dao of Destruction, a Dao that only privileged beings had the chance to step on in the Empyrean Plane.
"Good. You were able to successfully complete your mission in a barren plane with no resources...even achieving comprehension in a Grand Dao by yourself!"
RUMBLE!
"You can finally join the ranks of the Young Saintesses of our Tenebrous Conclave after proving yourself, and the resources such as Dao Crystals you couldn't have access to before will be open for you to fight for. Come!"
His words were like strikes of thunder as they were undeniable, but Catherine was actually rolling her eyes while listening to this powerful being multiple ranks above her as she spoke back while following.
"Yes, daddy."
…!
A vein seemed to pop on the forehead of the powerful QUASAR Realm being as he watched Catherine's behavior, shaking his head at how his daughter never changed!
But on this day, a certain Disciple returned to the Tenebrous Conclave of the Empyrean Plane as she became a Young Saintess right after, this being carrying with her a connection that would come to shake the Empyrean Plane!
