Birth of the Demonic Sword

Chapter 1173 1173. Return

Noah’s improvements weren’t substantial when it came to his cultivation level. Yet, those who saw him knew that there was something different with him.

While Noah flew through the new continent, those watching him understood that the disappearance of the divine aura from the Cut had something to do with him.

It wasn’t only the fact that the divine aura had disappeared after he left that region. Noah appeared different. His figure had become hard to make out even with the help of inscribed structures.

Noah reached King Elbas’ palace in the region on the southeastern coast’s corner and walked directly toward the underground area. He found Thirty-seven waiting for him together with the Ape God that showed an eager expression.

"I hope you will honor your promises," The Ape God said before Noah nodded at the automaton.

Thirty-seven pressed on the ground, and the barriers around the room opened. The Ape God could move the golden sphere that contained it outside of its prison, and part of its aura began to leak in the area.

"I can break this barrier on my own," The Ape God said while touching the golden light around it, "But you need to remove the curse under my skin. The golden human has placed chains that bind my muscles."

Thirty-seven’s eyes lit up at those words, and he began to inspect the creature with a newfound interest. It seemed quite captivated by the thought of analyzing formations capable of suppressing a quasi-rank 7 beast.

The Ape God unleashed more of its aura and focused as much pressure as it could around Noah.

"What stops me from killing you now?" The Ape God asked.

Noah let the pressure fall on him before his sharpness surged. His aura appeared boundless in the creature’s eyes, but its power wasn’t enough to fend off the Ape God’s mental waves.

Still, Noah didn’t show any fear. His aloof expression didn’t reveal any interest in the Ape God.

"Do it," Noah said as his expression broke into a mocking smile. "Kill me. Actually, leave me alive enough to see what King Elbas does to your species. I want to die laughing."

The Ape God sensed the complete lack of fear coming from Noah’s figure and dispersed its mental waves. It didn’t like that outcome, but it knew that Noah would be in complete control of its actions now.

Thirty-seven wanted to follow the Ape God, but Noah’s stern gaze forced the automaton to return to his duties. He had to bind the creature to an oath, and there were countless defenses to review.

The Ape God left toward the region inhabited by the colony of Kesier Apes. Noah had made sure that they had their territory, so he felt confident that the quasi-rank 7 beast wouldn’t complain about its new accommodations.

Thirty-seven quickly chased after the beast, and Noah slowly walked outside of King Elbas’ palace.

The luxurious corridors and the paradisiac scenery that appeared in his vision after leaving the palace couldn’t disrupt his concentration. His entire being had only one goal. Noah wanted to survive the incoming assault and reach the Immortal Lands.

Sword Saint had made him understand his law, and Noah wanted to improve it now. His power had just begun to show the effects of his true meaning, but he could already see how amazing it was.

Noah’s ambition could force his attacks to express a superior power. They didn’t depend only on his cultivation level anymore. His law could make them become the best version of themselves.

It was a simple matter of fuel. Noah’s cultivation level was lacking compared to existences at the peak of the heroic ranks, but his ambition was so intense that his blows could surpass their natural limits.

June’s individuality was similar. Her centers of power could produce unlimited energy as long as she kept on fighting and her body didn’t crumble in the process.

Noah was the same, with the only difference that his unlimited potential involved his abilities. He already had endless fuel, so he only needed skills that could make use of it and experience with his law.

His power couldn’t reach the solid stage even when he relied on his immature law, but he could come close to that level. His ambition was too undeveloped to make him jump ranks, but that was its main purpose.

As someone who had always lived in a world filled with old monsters, Noah had finally obtained the power to match them. The only problem was that he had yet to develop it properly.

Years of peace went by. The organizations continued to pile on one defensive formation after another even after more than thirty years had passed from Noah’s celebration.

King Elbas didn’t show his presence anymore. No cracks appeared in the sky, and the Elders in charge of inspecting both continents didn’t see anything unusual.

Noah didn’t let that peace affect his mental state. Discovering his law had enhanced his worse habits, and it had taken him a while to suppress them again.

Having such an intense ambition fueling all his functions made him desire more power immediately. He had to become used to breaks again, and his patience with the inscription methods took a while to return.

Still, he had learnt to control himself in those years. The intensity of his law kept him worried even after he returned to his normal state, but he knew that he couldn’t do anything about that.

He had only taken one step toward creating a law, but he had to go through a long period of seclusion to adapt already. Noah couldn’t even begin to imagine how long it would take to adjust to his ambition once his existence improved.

The years of peace passed quietly until a change happened in the sky and alerted the three leading organizations’ assets. Noah was the first to learn about that event thanks to his instincts, but the other higher-ups soon received warnings that informed them about that event.

A large number of troops rose in the sky from the three organizations. They directly took teleportation matrices or flew to reach the western borders of the Hive’s domain.

Those areas would be the first target if King Elbas decided to attack the Hive. The western coast had become the most protected area in the new continent.

The sky trembled, and long black lines fell from random spots before vanishing into thin air. They didn’t seem part of formations. Noah guessed that they were King Elbas’ attempts to break through the barriers among the worlds.

The fabric of the sky eventually fell apart as those attacks continued. The various lines that had appeared fused and created a long fissure that was as thick as a man’s arm.

The fissure expanded until cracks appeared in the sky and a portal formed among the air. Pure darkness was visible from the other side of the line, but a golden figure soon came out of it.

The world held its breath when it saw King Elbas coming out of the sky. Tension built among them, but the Royal seemed to have other plans. It didn’t show any hatred in his expression. His face revealed only the curiosity that had always filled him.

The organizations prepared all their defenses, and countless cultivators settled inside the separate dimension. Many of them had entered only because Flying Demon’s strategy saw them launching spells while going up and down from the doors filling the coast.
