Chapter 4129 A Corpse With Infinite Uses!
Khor floated upward, her small form suddenly carrying weight that made everyone step back.
"I do not have much power, Outsider," she said, though her smile suggested otherwise. "But I do have Hunger. And my hunger is ravenous."
What followed was simultaneously graceful and grotesque.
Khor raised her finger to her mouth with the delicate motion of someone about to test temperature.
Her tongue emerged, pink and innocuous, and painted the digit with saliva that shouldn't carry significance but absolutely did. She then floated to the corpse and began drawing with her moistened finger.
The traced X across the ape's chest shouldn't have done anything.
Saliva wasn't supposed to cut through flesh that had weathered eons. Yet where her finger passed, the skin parted like eager lips.
The sternum split with wet crackling, ribs spreading like wings revealing secrets!
HUUM!
Pectoralis major muscles, each fiber containing enough power to move mountains, peeled back in perfect anatomical display. The thoracic cavity opened like a flower of meat and possibility.
Blood gushed out...not the thin crimson of mortal creatures but thick, golden-touched life force that painted the Shore in wealth!
The intercostal muscles between ribs glistened with residual power. The pleural membrane that should protect lungs had been decorated with natural patterns that looked like existential calligraphy.
And there, nestled in its pericardial sac like a ruby in silk, beat the heart. No...it didn't beat. It couldn't beat. But it gave the impression of beating, as if death was just another opinion it disagreed with.
Khor traced again with her finger, this time following the coronary arteries that fed the heart itself.
Her saliva-wet digit severed the superior vena cava, the inferior vena cava, the pulmonary arteries and veins...each cut precise as a surgeon's but
accomplished through hunger rather than blade. The ascending aorta, thick as a tree trunk, parted last.
The heart lifted free, carried by Khor's gesture rather than her hands. It was massive- larger than Noah's entire body several times over. The cardiac muscle gleamed crimson-gold, its surface decorated with vessels that looked like rivers of light frozen mid-flow.
The heart floated toward Noah with ponderous grace, and as it arrived, the golden sands responded. They rose and condensed, forming a spear of compressed Shore that carried more than physical properties. Without ceremony or warning, this golden lance pierced into Noah's chest.
Pain transcended sensation to become experience. But more than pain came transformation.
Crimson-gold light blazed from the Ape's heart, flowing through the sand-spear like celestial transfusion. The complexity and purity invaded, conquered, claimed territory in his existence that it immediately improved.

BOOM!
The number crossed ten trillion with the particular weight of a threshold being shattered.
And... Noah's body radiated an aura that made everyone present freeze with recognition.
Sigrid felt it first, her Order recognizing hierarchy when it manifested. Moiraine sensed it second, her paradoxical nature understanding impossibility when it occurred!
The overwhelming complexity and purity of a Duke.
A fucking Duke!
Such advancement seemed impossible, yet Noah's expression remained tyrannically calm as he roared out a single word: "More!"
BOOM!
The phenomenon intensified. The Ape's heart shriveled as its essence was extracted, the golden spear acting as pipeline for impossible transformation.
CARDIAC ENHANCEMENT IN PROGRESS
Your heart's architecture is being revolutionized
Myocardium (heart muscle) density increasing 400%
Epicardium (outer layer) developing reality-resistant properties
Endocardium (inner lining) gaining conceptual filtration ability
Third Part of Early Creature Heart: COMPLETE
Myokelum Primus - The Living Pump of Trembling Flow
Fourth Part: CONSTRUCTION INITIATED
Ascendran Nodule beginning formation
Inside Noah's chest, his heart had become something that shouldn't exist in beings of his level!
The Ventryalis- his Primal Root Atrium of Echoes, gleamed crimson-gold with accumulated might. The Oruvian Shardveil- his Arterial Convergence Core, pulsed with rhythm that made reality adjust its tempo.
Now the Myokelum Primus joined them, its muscular walls contracting with force that could pump oceans.
Coronary arteries that had been merely biological became conceptual
highways!
The left anterior descending artery carried not just blood but liquified
authority. The circumflex artery distributed power that transcended
everything!
Every vessel had become a river of possibility, carrying Drops of Blood that
each contained enough complexity to decimate Any weak Honored or Royal
Living Existences!
MYOKELUM PRIMUS SPECIAL ABILITY UNLOCKED
Haki of The Early Creature, Osmont
Effect on enemies: Complexity/Purity reduction up to 3 Trillion
Effect on allies: Temporary enhancement up to 3 Trillion
Range: Proportional to your killing intent
[This is your presence weaponized
Noah absorbed this information with the calm of someone who had expected nothing less. His eyes, cold with controlled ambition, turned to Khor.
"Could you cut out its other organs?"
Khor smiled with genuine pleasure. "In the midst of hard work and effort, you should definitely enjoy the boons. Let me help you harvest properly."
She repeated her grotesque ballet- finger to mouth, saliva as blade, precision
that surgeons would weep to achieve.
The liver emerged first, the massive hepatic mass gleaming like crystallized wine, its multiple lobes each containing different aspects of power! The kidneys followed, paired organs that had filtered impossibility from the Ape's blood, now condensed possibility waiting to be claimed. The spleen came next, an organ most would ignore but which in Early Creatures stored concentrated immune authority. These complex beings went above and beyond as normsl features of organs...they made extreme!
With the spleen alone, its properties of immunity made other authorities bounce off their bodies!
The pancreas, producer of enzymes that could digest concepts. Fucking ideas could be broken down with their enzymatic processes!
The lungs, though only the upper portions remained, still contained breath that
had moved through dimensions.
Each organ floated free, painted in crimson-gold stellar radiance. Rivers of
blood followed each extraction, painting the Shore in patterns that would become mythology if anyone bothered to record them.
Well, someone was recording them as the Queen of Matter was furiously
writing everything down!
The stomach, the intestinal segments that remained, the thymus that had produced cellular warriors beyond imagination...all of it came out! "Stop," Noah commanded when nine organs floated before him.
Each one emanated waves of complexity and purity in the trillions, a treasury
of advancement floating in afternoon light. They rotated slowly, as if displaying themselves for consideration.
"Would you like to eat anything?" Noah asked Khor with genuine curiosity. "Do you hunger for anything here?"
Khor laughed- a sound that contained multitudes. Her hands moved with
casual precision, carving out the gallbladder with the same delicate violence. The organ emerged, massive and golden, a hundred times her tiny size. It contained bile that could dissolve lies, concentrated bitterness that had helped the Ape digest the indigestible.
She opened her mouth in a sweet, small manner. Then...
BOOM!
The gallbladder vanished instantly, her consumption transcending existential
possibility. She licked her lips with satisfaction that suggested empires had been devoured.
"With that, I am full, Outsider"
Noah studied her for a moment, knowing she could have claimed more, could
have demanded everything.
Her restraint was its own form of gift. He nodded respectfully before commanding the nine floating organs to be preserved. Golden sands erupted from the Shore, wrapping around each organ with the
particular care of something preserving treasure. They were pulled down into
storage that existed between existence, saved for future advancement or experimentation.
Noah turned to his other self. "You're up."
Ozymandias floated upward, his tentacle-form writhing with anticipation.
Noah's eyes burned with wisdom earned through suffering as he spoke.
"I will hunger and devour any organs I want before proceeding to place myself
where this Ape's heart used to be." His voice carried dark amusement. "If others enjoy playing with corpses, so will I."
Ozymandias moved forward with purpose that transcended hunger. He entered the chest cavity where the heart had been carved out, where crimson-gold blood still spurted with pressure that denied death. His body dissolved into
tendrils that knew exactly where to go.
Each tentacle found a severed vessel and entered it. The superior vena cava accepted one tendril that immediately began drawing whatever remained. The pulmonary arteries welcomed invasion that would reverse their flow. Every coronary vessel, every cardiac vein, every capillary that had been severed
became a connection point.
Ozymandias wasn't just occupying the space....he was becoming the heart, replacing what had been removed with something far more terrible. Around Noah's primary body, obsidian-gold light erupted as his Towers of Necromancy and Death rose from his Atlas.
Third Stage towers that understood what was being attempted and approved with the particular enthusiasm of concepts that rarely got to play. The Primordial Stone Ape was about to become something it had never been in
life- a puppet, a vessel, a new form of existence that served another's will. And Noah, standing on his Shore with power that had just crossed into Duke
territory, watched with cold Tyranny as impossibility became inevitable through sufficient application of hunger and will!
