Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

A single action different from the Original Timeline creating a branch in time that would bud into a whole new reality!

Such a concept caused Noah's heart to tremble as after the comprehension of Chronos, his mind could see a vast and endless River of Time that seemed to stretch endlessly. This river of time occasionally had smaller rivers stemming from it, and these were all points in time where beings utilized the law of time or the Dao of Chronos to do something.

But eventually, all of these small rivers of time merged back with the main one that churned endlessly forward.

The Original Timeline!

Noah looked at the image of the river of time, seeing the path of his current timeline of him growing up, of his parents falling to the first Beast Tides when the Apocalypse began, of him obtaining a Rank F Fireball skill book up until now when he obtained a Cosmic Dao.

It had many paths and possibilities, but they all led to where he was right now!

He...could not change this.

Any grand changes he made would only put him on another branch of time, something he still didn't understand the consequences of!

Even though he had the mana requirements to go back to even the point before he obtained the Rank F Fireball Skill Book, he did not do so as he still had not fully understood Chronos and Time! He didn't know the effects it would have on everything, and what would happen when he left the Original Timeline he was currently in, or what effects it would have on this timeline!

From his Novus Galaxy to the Dark Universe, and now to the Primordial Cosmos where 9 of its Universes were currently under lock in a process initiated by some of the most powerful beings within the Cosmos...and wherever this would lead.

Maybe when he had fully assimilated Chronos.

At that time, maybe he would understand more about branching timelines and realities, and whether he could truly move without shattering everything.

things even more after he obtained the Cosmic Dao of Reincarnation and how that was different from Chronos. Was the Hegemony of Chronos Reincarnating in the Original Timeline this whole time? What about the timeline before he reincarnated? What
