Chapter 1683 - 1683. Words
"Do you really think that you can face the four of us?" Melissa snorted when she saw Noah and his companion nearing the human army.
Robert wore a pensive expression. He raised his hand and pointed a finger toward Noah before launching a small purple bullet toward him.
The bullet was incredibly fast, and it carried an immense amount of energy. Still, Noah could sense that it radiated laws belonging to Heaven and Earth, so he decided to endure it with his b.a.r.e body.
The purple bullet hit Noah at the center of his c.h.e.s.t and tried to dig deeper into his body, but its energy began to fall apart when it touched Noah's ambition. The attack transformed into energy that fixed the damage before flowing toward the black hole.
"You have developed the Devils' immunity to Heaven and Earth's laws," Robert commented at that sight.
"How can you even follow such flawed leaders," Noah sighed while approaching the four solid stage cultivators. "You have given up on your laws to gain unbeatable enemies. I don't have words to express how disappointed I feel."
Noah was trying to taunt the experts. He felt confident in fighting the four cultivators for a short time, but he didn't know how a prolonged battle would go.
His innate resistance to Heaven and Earth's laws would force the four leaders to rely on weaker existences, but they remained solid stage experts. Noah's power didn't make any sense, but he had yet to understand if he could face those opponents at his current level.
Noah hoped that his taunts could make one of those experts leave the others and face him alone, but the cultivators remained together. They didn't let him get into their mind.
'It's time to force their hand,' Noah concluded in his mind before raising the arm that wielded the Demonic Sword.
The group of sharks behind Noah shot forward and resumed their battle against the human army. The cultivators quickly discovered that some of their abilities had changed. Their overall prowess had also increased, and the hunger that blinded their mind had vanished.
The Devils worked together with the sharks and echoed the auras that spread from their figures. The magical beasts had access to "Breath" now, so they could use stronger abilities that the Devils didn't hesitate to improve.
The human army immediately lost the upper hand in the battle, but the four leaders didn't move. Their eyes remained fixed on Noah even if their underlings were suffering severe losses.
"Don't lose hope!" Rebecca shouted. "Heaven and Earth didn't turn their back on us. They are watching this battle closely!"
Her announcement didn't improve the underlings' morale. Those cultivators found themselves unable to push their opponents back, and their leaders weren't doing anything to help them.
Noah suddenly appeared next to Rebecca. The expert's eyes widened when she saw two sharp weapons converging toward her face, but her aura exploded forward before they could touch her.
A wave of dense red energy crashed on Noah's figure, but he deployed the unstable substance to endure the blow and retain his position. The attack couldn't even stop his actions, so he completed the slash while Rebecca tried to retreat.
A chunk of the wave of energy disappeared when the singularity hit it. A faint black halo also spread among that redness while Noah's attack continued to fly forward.
The singularity eventually hit Rebecca, but its energy melted when it touched her skin. The expert revealed a smile, but her expression froze when a drop of blood fell from her forehead.
Noah wanted to wave his swords again, but three figures materialized above him before he could complete his blow. Robert, Melissa, and Castor pointed their hands toward him and released multiple abilities that contained enough power to pierce his tough skin.
Portals connected to the void opened above Noah. A ma.s.sive black crack absorbed the attacks and gave him the chance to complete his slash.
The short delay caused by the three solid stage cultivators allowed Rebecca to attack before the singularity could reach her. A scorching wave of energy engulfed Noah's attack and melted its structure.
'They can match my blows even if they use weaker laws,' Noah noted in his mind before a dangerous sensation forced him to focus on his side.
Robert had flown past the crack and had approached Noah. He wielded a watery purple ma.s.s that he didn't hesitate to throw toward his opponent.
Melissa and Castor approached Noah from behind and tried to cast spells, but a ma.s.sive winged snake materialized on their path and filled the area with violent dark matter.
The two experts still cast their spells and destroyed a large chunk of Snore's body, but the Blood Companion only hissed in anger at that feat. The cultivators had hurt it, but the attacks had depleted their energy during the process. The snake had successfully protected Noah.
Both Blood Companions had reached the middle tier after absorbing part of the will's energy. Nothing in Noah's a.r.s.enal had remained in the lower tier. All his companions and weapons had advanced. They were finally able to join his battles.
Rebecca tried to attack again, but her right hand suddenly separated from her arm. A fuming shadow materialized in the distance after that event. Night had to show itself after suffering the damage caused by the scorching defenses that protected the expert's skin.
Dense arrows made of a black fluid shot out of the roots in Noah's grasp. The parasite's corrosive aura flew toward Robert, but the expert vanquished it by spitting a mouthful of his purple water.
Raging waves of dark matter came out of Noah's figure and filled the area. The experts quickly deployed their abilities to stop the arrival of the dark world, but Instabilities suddenly appeared inside their bodies.
The Instabilities detonated and forced the cultivators to deploy the entirety of their laws to suppress their energy. Some organs, blood vessels, and chunks of tissues inevitably crumbled during the sudden attack. However, the cultivators could salvage their vital organs and destroy the fuming spikes that were trying to ravage their insides.
The dark world engulfed the four experts since the Shadow Domain had forced them to focus on the Instabilities. Their already weaker laws suffered under the suppression of the dark matter, and Noah's companions could reveal their real power inside that environment.
Snore, Duanlong, and Night became stronger inside the dark world. The dark matter covered their bodies and made them able to resist the many dangerous defenses that protected the four leaders.
Noah could appear above Rebecca without worrying about the other experts. His presence remained hidden from the leader's consciousness until a singularity shot out of his blades.
A straight piercing blow fell on Rebecca and defeated the scorching membrane that covered her skin. The attack created a hole in her head, but an explosion followed the event and dispersed the dark world.
Noah managed to understand what had happened after he arrived higher in the sky. The explosion had flung him far away from the battlefield and had burnt large patches of his skin.
His dark world had disappeared, but the dark matter had managed to protect his companions from Rebecca's heat. Snore and Duanlong soon materialized near him, and Night appeared above his head.
The four solid stage cultivators didn't immediately charge at Noah. They limited themselves to stare at him while they inspected their injuries.
Rebecca had lost one hand, and a b.l.o.o.d.y hole had appeared on her head. Part of Castor and Melissa's skin had vanished due to Snore's destructive dark matter. Only Robert was completely fine on the outside, but he didn't take joy in his condition.
The four experts had also suffered internal injuries due to the Shadow Domain. They could still express their peak power, but Noah had managed to hurt their pride.
Noah was only a liquid stage hybrid, but four solid stage cultivators were struggling to fight him. The leaders didn't even know what to think anymore. They didn't have words to describe their opponent.
