Birth of the Demonic Sword

Chapter 1398 1398. Perfection

Noah punched, kicked, and spewed flames on the Steeled Boar while he dodged its attacks. Even with the empowerment of his innate ability, he was weaker than the creature in a battle of pure physical strength. Yet, he had his speed on his side.

The Boar was big and had a limited number of moves that it could perform. As long as Noah didn’t give it enough space to prepare a charge, the beast couldn’t launch threatening attacks.

However, the Boar made up for the simplicity of its attacks with its incredible defense. Its brownish metallic skin protected the creature from almost any form of damage, especially when Noah could not use his best abilities.

He managed to inflict some internal injuries due to the sheer power released by his attacks, but they couldn’t affect the Boar’s resilience in such a short time.

The fight soon became a battle of endurance. Noah couldn’t hurt the Steeled Boar, and the creature couldn’t catch him. The two exchanged countless blows that created intense shockwaves, but neither managed to gain the upper hand.

Noah sprinted, leaped, and flew around the creature to dodge the massive tusks and the body slams that came in his direction. A storm of punches, kicks, and "Breathless" slashes went out of his figure whenever he stopped or found a safe opportunity in that chaotic battle.

The hybrids in the distance couldn’t understand why Noah was continuing to fight. They had guessed by then that he had an incredible innate ability, but that couldn’t help him in a prolonged battle.

When it came to his endurance, Noah had to be inferior to the Steeled Boar. The difference between the levels of their bodies was immense. No innate ability could make up for that.

Yet, Noah’s body had gone through multiple cycles of purification, and even the Evolution Pit couldn’t find flaws in his tissues. The black hole also fueled his center of power and functioned as a nigh-infinite reserve of energy.

Noah didn’t believe that a simple magical beast could last longer than him. Their levels were worlds apart, but the quality of his body was many leagues above everything else. When he added his black hole to his situation, he saw that the Boar had no chances.

Only mistakes in his battle style could lead to a defeat. The Steeled Boar could win if it managed to land a few direct blows, but Noah planned to be perfect. He would fight without even giving the beast a chance.

Existences in the seventh rank had deep reserves of energy. A mere magical beast at the bottom of the lower tier could fight for entire months if the situation required it.

Noah was forcing the Boar to deplete far more energy than usual, but the creature didn’t grow tired even after an entire day passed. Nothing happened even after a week went by. The beast didn’t slow down its offensive and didn’t show any sign of exhaustion.

The same went for Noah. He felt that he could fight for entire years in those conditions. Moreover, he never stopped landing blows on the brownish skin, so the Boar’s condition worsened continuously.

An entire month had to pass before Noah saw some changes in the creature’s condition. A trail of blood came out of its mouth, and its breath became slightly irregular.

The Boar had finally begun to show the damage suffered after acting as Noah’s punching bag for an entire month. Its attempts to catch Noah had also helped in worsening the faint internal injuries that Noah’s blows managed to create.

The hybrids in the distance held their breath at that sight. Noah was doing it. The Boar had shown a sign of weakness before him. If he continued to fight like that for more months, he had a chance to overcome one of the most difficult challenges of the second layer.

Noah’s audience only increased during his battle. The scene depicted repetitive moves and boring battle tactics, but those hybrids couldn’t stop watching him once they laid their eyes on the fight.

Noah was perfect. His every move allowed him to gain the most out of that situation without putting him in danger. His majestic battle style showed his vast experience and steady mind to his audience.

His aura also radiated an intense ambition that began to affect the hybrids in the distance. Noah wasn’t using his individuality to empower his blows, and he didn’t plan to reveal it either. However, his true meaning leaked out of his figure, and he couldn’t stop that process even with the help of the black hole.

Noah couldn’t hide that part of himself during such a violent battle. His ambition was the core of his individuality, so nothing could suppress it while he was busy doing his best against the Boar. He was putting his entire focus on the fight, and his existence reacted to that feeling by expressing his true meaning through his aura.

His ambition affected the hybrids that were watching him at some distance from the battle. They could sense their potential growing as the fight continued to rage.

A simple but breathtaking idea formed in their minds as Noah’s ambition affected their reasoning. They could be Noah if they wanted. They could jump in that battle and fight perfectly for entire months if they desired.

Those hybrids had the potential to reach that level of perfection. They could defeat the Boar if their body obtained a similar power.

That thought shook the very foundation of their minds. The hybrids couldn’t explain why they had given up on a trial that they could have overcome if they worked hard enough.

Of course, Noah wasn’t winning only due to his perfect battle style. His black hole and superior body played an important part in that fight. He would have exhausted himself already otherwise.

During the third month of continuous battle, the Boar committed a grave mistake. The creature spat a mouthful of blood that made it lose a lot of time and focus, and Noah didn’t hesitate to exploit that opportunity.

Noah jumped toward the Boar’s head as soon as he saw that the beast stopped attacking him for an instant. Intense aggression spread from his body at that point. His opponent was showing weakness in front of him. He had to punish the beast for that insult to his commitment.

The creature sensed an immense force landing on its head and slamming it on the ground. A series of punches followed that, but the Boar barely felt them due to its dizzy mind.

Noah tried to focus the same spot on its skin repeatedly to destroy the brownish protection. Dents and bruises had appeared on the Boar after three months of continuous fighting, and his fists eventually managed to open a crack in its defenses.

The Boar cried in pain after a brownish shard fell from its head. Noah’s eyes lit up at that sight, and his fingers arched to stab that opening toward the creature’s insides.

Once his finger entered the Boar’s head, Noah ripped off a large patch of its skin and spat flames in its insides. An intense surge of energy soon reached his body as the black fire separated from the attack and gave him the primary energy contained in the burned tissues.

Then, a loud cry filled the area before the creature stopped moving. Life abandoned its eyes, and Noah announced the Boar’s death with a roar shouted at the fake sky.
