Chapter 1438 1438. Noise

A deafening clanging noise came out from the mess that had filled the area near the pond. Noah, Don, Jordan, and King Elbas felt hammers slamming on their minds every time that sound echoed through the environment and reached their figures.

It didn't matter what techniques they were using. The clanging noise hurt their minds and tried to slow down their escape. However, the four mustered all the power in their consciousness to remain calm and focus on leaving the region.

Blood began to flow down Noah's nose. The clanging noise managed to suppress the screaming of his instincts and forced him to use all his focus to keep his movement technique active.

The other experts were in a similar situation. Even Jordan couldn't escape suffering injuries when her opponent was a rank 8 magical beast.

Explosions continued to resound in the chaotic area. The traps continued to detonate, and the might radiated by their power made the sky bend. The four experts had ama.s.sed so much energy in that place that event the Immortal Lands were struggling to contain it.

Still, even that might couldn't stop the giant Crab. Its ma.s.sive figure eventually walked out of the messy area and revealed the source of the clanging sound that was affecting the experts.

The Crab's claws slammed on each other and released that deafening noise. They resembled small mountains as they moved left and right to create those intense soundwaves.

The azure ground began to give in as the soundwaves continued to spread through the area. Cracks opened, and weaker magical beasts died under the pressure radiated by that noise.

A rank 8 creature was a walking calamity, and the Crab expressed its power perfectly. Even if it lacked proper long-range attacks, its soundwaves were capable of inflicting immense damage.

However, the Crab had to accept the reality of the situation when it left the messy aura. Nothing tried to hinder its awareness anymore, but it couldn't sense the auras of its enemies.

The many traps had made it lose no more than three seconds, but that time had been enough for the group to escape from the range of its senses. Even if the Crab wanted to follow them, it didn't know where to go.

The Crab vented on the ground at that point. It slammed its ma.s.sive claws on the azure terrain and created as much chaos as it could. Some of the weaker beasts in the nearby areas died when the shockwaves radiated by its attacks reached them. Entire packs even left their lairs to escape from the same fate.

Noah felt weak. He had flown for four entire days, even if his head felt heavy. A faint crack had also appeared on his mental walls, so he was in deep need of rest.

Yet, he didn't dare to stop. He had lost track of the rank 8 Crab for a few days already, but he didn't know how determined to retrieve the Bloodline Inheritances that creature was.

His mind always prepared him for the worst outcome, so he continued to fly for two more weeks before deciding to stop. The crack on his mental walls had slightly enlarged due to his continued struggle, but his condition wasn't as poor as it looked.

Noah cleaned the blood that had fallen from his nose before digging a cave where to recover. His black hole had tried to do its best during the flight, but even that incredible organ couldn't start healing him until he stopped.

Resisting the soundwaves had exhausted Noah. The black hole couldn't heal him until he regained some energy, but Noah could do that only once he rested.

Moreover, the clanging noises that had injured him had carried the Crab's influence. The ecstasy radiated by that creature filled the damage on his mental walls and made him suffer far more.

That aura would also slow down his recovery, but Noah didn't mind spending more time healing. He had obtained what he wanted, and his injuries were only a small price to pay for that.

Noah could finally fix his condition once he sealed the cave with his dark matter. His black hole enhanced his mental sphere's properties and helped transform his mental energy into a substance that could fix the crack quickly.

No mental messages reached his inscribed notebook in that period. The other experts were also busy healing, and neither would move until they returned to their peak condition.

Long months pa.s.sed, but Noah eventually recovered and began his inspection of the Bloodline Inheritances. Some of them were still on the golden rope, and he didn't hesitate to pick one of the crystals.

'I wonder what you will show me,' Noah thought before placing the crystal at the center of his forehead.

The Bloodline Inheritance melted, and its insides fell on Noah's mental sea. Vague memories and feelings filled his mind as images began to appear in his vision.

Noah saw the murky waters of the pond. They seemed the clearest liquid in the world from his new eyes, and everything appeared perfect from his point of view.

The water gave him life, and a sense of coziness enveloped him. He could feel that someone was protecting him, which made him feel more willing to start living.

The ecstasy continued to fill his mind until his external sh.e.l.l broke. The water fell on his face, but it felt dirty, tainted by the outside world. Yet, he couldn't live without that sensation anymore. That delight was his everything!

Noah turned to see the remains of his red sh.e.l.l fusing with the bottom of the pond. They belonged to the lair now.

Desperation filled his mind when he thought that he couldn't satisfy his addiction anymore, but more red sh.e.l.ls soon appeared in his view. A wicked idea appeared in his mind at that point. His ecstasy was within claw's reach. He only needed to stretch it to reach the brothers and sisters that had yet to be born.

Still, before he could even move, a shadow covered the whiteness that seeped inside the pond and filled the bottom of the pond with the intense ecstasy that all the newborns sought.

Noah raised his claws at the sky to wors.h.i.+p the shadow. He saw the giant Crab spitting countless red shards from its mouth, and he easily caught one of them.

When the shard entered his mouth, the ecstasy that he felt became even more intense. He was finally complete. Before he could even think about it, he had already devoted his entire life to the mighty bringer of delight.

Noah woke up from the dream at that point. A small smile appeared on his face when he saw that his arms were pointing at the sky. Something similar had happened with his first Bloodline Inheritance, and thinking about it had made him nostalgic.

'A species that reproduces through Bloodline Inheritances,' Noah thought as he laid on the ground. 'What strange creatures. Their crystals don't improve my mind by a lot, but no one would ever refuse this free boost.'

Noah noted the pond's location in his mind before straightening his position and checking his inscribed notebook. His companions had sent him mental messages where they asked him to wait until they divided the goods before using the crystals.

'Too late,' Noah thought as he told them his position and took another Bloodline Inheritance from his separate s.p.a.ce.

Inside his mind, he was already calculating how many of them he could use before they began to suspect him.
