Chapter 1707 - 1707. Burn

The creature released violent flares of scarlet flames once its structure destabilized. Noah spat his black fire while deploying the dark world again. The dark matter managed to burn the remains of the spell, and Noah's injuries closed in a matter of seconds.

Lord Ethan quickly tore away another patch of charred skin. Dense scarlet flames came out of his figure and gathered behind him to give birth to an even bigger creature. The spell featured four winged fireballs connected by fiery tunnels at that time.

The expert was about to give an order, but a wave of bloodl.u.s.t suddenly flew past him. Noah's violent thoughts seeped into his mind and made him understand part of his plan. Lord Ethan even saw scenes that depicted his opponent's imagination.

"You can't do that," Lord Ethan said in a broken voice while taking a step back.

Noah stepped out of the dark world. His cold reptilian eyes never left Lord Ethan. They seemed unable to see him as a real opponent. The expert was only food for him.

"Heaven and Earth will never allow that!" Lord Ethan continued to shout before stepping inside his spell.

Pure fear had filled Lord Ethan. He couldn't believe that Noah would think about such a cruel plan. He knew about his history, but his current thoughts were a clear insult to Heaven and Earth's might.

"Heaven and Earth rarely care about us," Noah snorted. "Look! Your army is dying because your laws have found a perfect opponent. My companions are even making sure that none of them comes back to life, but the rulers have yet to make an appearance."

"You don't know anything," Lord Ethan shouted again, and his figure slowly fused with his spell.

"I know that they will notice my plan too late," Noah whispered before shooting forward.

Lord Ethan's spell morphed after he fused with the scarlet flames. More winged fireballs appeared among that creature and generated multiple fiery channels to connect them.

The spell transformed into a massive creature that featured ten winged fireballs. The structure even obtained a strange aura that released a heavy pressure in the environment.

Noah reappeared at the center of the creature, and a dark light flashed as his dark blades released a horizontal slash. A singularity quickly tried to divide the spell into two halves, but a scarlet line appeared on its trajectory.

Scarlet light shot out of the line. Scorching energy clashed with Noah's singularity and tried to fight it back. However, the attack was too powerful since it involved the cursed sword, so the dark halo soon took over that redness.

'It's quite tough,' Noah thought when he noticed that his attack didn't manage to divide the spell into two parts.

His singularity had vanished before piercing the winged fireballs from side to side. The scarlet attack from before had made it deplete too much energy. The cuts that had appeared on the spell quickly reformed before another sphere gathered in front of Noah.

The sphere quickly released a scarlet beam that Noah struggled to dodge. He entered the Shadow Domain as soon as he sensed the threat, but the attack still managed to hit the right side of his body.

Noah reappeared above the structure. Grey smoke came out of his charred skin, but his movements seemed unaffected by those injuries.

His swords flashed again, but another line appeared on their path. The singularity shot forward to meet a scarlet attack that made it deplete a lot of energy before reaching the large spell.

The singularity didn't manage to do anything against the creature, and Noah felt forced to reconsider his approach. The injuries obtained from the cursed sword had acc.u.mulated again, and he even had to consider his charred skin now.

'Can he actually match the cursed sword with weaker laws?' Noah wondered as he retreated through the sky.

The dark world that covered his allies sent the energy acc.u.mulated in its insides. Noah could partially heal his injuries, but the situation continued to surprise him.

'How strong was he before joining Heaven and Earth?' Noah wondered. 'Maybe he obtained this power in the cities in the sky. I should visit them sooner or later.'

Noah revealed a cold smile before activating his ambition again. He didn't have time to waste, and his plan would even take care of eventual injuries. Still, he took precautions to avoid ruining his centers of power.

His body couldn't endure another forced empowerment, so he focused everything on his next attack. His ambition couldn't last for long due to its previous use, and he preferred to avoid abusing his power.

Noah's aura seemed to vanish when he raised his blades toward the sky. Lord Ethan didn't wait for his opponent to be ready to attack, and ten dense beams shot out from the winged fireball.

The scarlet beams converged toward Noah and fused into a single, massive wave of scorching energy. Noah could hear his instincts' screams, but he ignored them to focus on his next slash.

'This attack will kill him,' Noah thought before lowering his blades.

The scarlet beam divided itself in half as invisible energy flew across it. The singularity pierced the scarlet power and reached the main spell. A massive fissure opened on the creature and cut it into two parts.

The creature's flames dispersed and revealed a human figure. Noah quickly covered the area with his fire before appearing next to the cultivator. Lord Ethan was still alive, but his last attack had rendered him powerless.

'He even survived my attack,' Noah commented in his head. 'He must be quite strong among the solid stage. Perfect!'

Noah quickly covered the expert with dark matter that seeped inside his skin and blocked the connection with his centers of power. Lord Ethan was basically a prisoner now, and Noah had grand plans in mind for him.

Both swords returned inside the separate space while Noah spat flames toward the membrane of dark matter. His higher energy replicated his innate ability and burnt Lord Ethan's body until nothing remained of him.

Noah could summon Night and begin the severing from Heaven and earth's system now, but he had other plans for the expert.

A hole suddenly appeared in the layer of dark matter and allowed the sky to shine on Lord Ethan's law. Heaven and Earth quickly restored the expert's body and energy, but Noah made sure that the connections among his centers of power remained sealed.

Noah closed the membrane of dark matter once Heaven and Earth had sent a satisfying amount of energy. His flames promptly landed on the prison, and Lord Ethan burnt once again.

"No!" Lord Ethan managed to shout before dying for the second time, but only Noah could hear him.

The expert had seen what Noah had in mind. He had gained that idea after absorbing Lady Phyllis' body parts. Noah could theoretically continue to kill and absorb his opponents. He would obtain a nigh-endless energy source as long as Heaven and Earth continued to restore their centers of power.

Noah opened the membrane again, and Heaven and Earth promptly rebuilt Lord Ethan. However, the dark matter cut the connection with the sky before the expert could regain his full power, and Noah didn't hesitate to burn him for the third time.
