Birth of the Demonic Sword

Chapter 1524 1524. Mine

The sight of the Soul Stones told Noah and the others that the cavity wasn’t a simple structure. Those materials only existed in the human domain and inside mines scattered through the whole Immortal Lands.

’I see no signs of battles,’ Noah thought while inspecting the area.

It was rare to find mines of Soul Stones in places that didn’t feature battles, but it was possible. A high concentration of energy or a series of valuable resources could nourish the ground enough to give birth to those materials.

"We need to explore the insides of the cavity," Noah said, interrupting the silence that had fallen among the trio.

The other magical beasts in his group soon reached that area. The Foolery and the other creatures stooped behind Noah, Fergie, and the rank 8 leader to wait for their instructions.

"Can’t we start eating them?" The rank 8 Foolery asked, but Noah shook his head.

"This is a lair," Noah said. "I suggest we enter it only after defeating the pack that occupies this mountain."

"What if they hide inside the cavity?" Fergie asked.

Noah stepped forward. His consciousness expanded, and his mental waves seeped inside the cavity, looking for any trace of life. His senses didn’t manage to find anything, but that outcome didn’t disperse Noah’s worries.

’This will lure out any creature hiding inside the mountain,’ Noah thought before opening his palm above the cavity.

Dark matter covered his hand, and a series of spiked spheres fell inside the cavity. Noah was using the Instabilities created during his journey. His stash of disposable weapons in the upper tier had reached an incredible number after accumulating materials for centuries.

"Don’t destroy the food!" The rank 8 Foolery shouted, but Noah ignored it.

Some of the Soul Stones would shatter in the process, but their raw laws would flow in the outside world. The Foolery and the other magical beasts could easily absorb them. Even Fergie would have the chance to seize that precious energy.

Hundreds of Instabilities filled the cavity and rolled down its walls. Noah paid attention to every sound that reached his ears, and his mind slowly learnt that the structure didn’t contain only rocks.

Noah became almost sure that something was hiding inside the mountain, so he didn’t hesitate to throw more Instabilities. He stopped only when the noises with an unclear source didn’t echo anymore.

"You might want to retreat," Noah said when he rejoined his companions. "To those who can fly, I suggest you prepare for the incoming wave of energy."

The Foolery, Fergie, and the eagles in the army shot in the sky and floated above the mountain. Noah joined them after giving a series of orders to the creatures on the ground, and he snapped his fingers once he completed his preparations.

A series of explosions immediately resounded from inside the mountain. A wave of fuming spikes, smoke, and debris shot out of the cavity and filled the sky.

A dense wave of energy followed that event. The raw laws contained in the Soul Stones destroyed by the instabilities shot upward and filled the area where Noah and the others were floating.

The magical beasts absorbed that energy, and Noah did the same. Only Fergie had to resort to a few techniques to seize and store those raw laws.

Noah’s dantian began to enlarge. The raw laws replicated his darkness and filled his organ, improving his cultivation level far faster than any training session.

Noah didn’t use Soul Stones for a long time, so he ignored the possible drawbacks that his abuse could cause. His existence already wanted to improve. Those raw laws only gave him the chance to do it faster.

Still, that massive wave of energy vanished in a matter of seconds. The magical beasts and Fergie reopened their eyes to wear disappointed expressions. They expected far more after those explosions.

Only Noah felt that something was off. He knew how powerful his Instabilities were, and he had even used hundreds of them. In theory, the mountain couldn’t endure their might.

Yet, the mountain had stopped trembling rather quickly, and the energy that had reached the sky didn’t match his expectations. Noah slowly became confident that something had hindered his attack.

"Can we go in now?" The rank 8 Foolery asked, but the mountain suddenly began to tremble and attracted its attention.

Noah’s expression grew cold, and two swords promptly appeared in his hands. The others in the sky focused on the broken cavity when they noticed his actions. It was clear that a battle was about to happen.

A spider-web of cracks suddenly spread throughout the summit. The earthquake continued to rage as boulders began to fall from the mountain’s sides.

Then, the entire summit crumbled, and a series of figures became visible among the falling boulders. They were huge dragons that Noah had never seen before, but the aura that they released triggered his excitement.

Those dragons had black scales and a pair of large wings. They had four legs and a tail, but their head carried their most peculiar features.

Those creature’s head was as big as half their body. Their eyes and nose had a normal size, but their mouth was immense. Its lower part resembled a sack capable of containing entire magical beasts.

The dragons were thirty meters long and ten meters tall. The lower part of their mouth could reach their legs, and a pulling force also spread from their throat.

Whenever the dragons opened their mouth, boulders and energy would converge toward them. The laws of space also twisted in their insides. They carried properties that Noah had only seen in space-rings.

Moreover, those creatures radiated a type of energy that Noah couldn’t fail to recognize. They were magical beasts with a darkness aptitude!

The pack of dragons featured two rank 8 leaders in the lower tier. Their hungry eyes soon converged toward the rank 8 Foolery, and a series of deep roars came out of their enormous mouths.

Noah snorted before giving voice to a roar. The two leaders had ordered their pack to isolate the rank 8 pig, but Noah promptly stated that he would fight one of them.

War cries resounded in the sky. The Foolery and the other magical beasts chanted their desire to fight, but neither of them dared to move before their leaders.

Noah glanced at the shattered mountain. He could see numerous Soul Stones hidden among the debris. It seemed that he had really found a mine.

"I don’t think I can fight two of them simultaneously," The rank 8 Foolery said, and Noah understood the meaning behind its words.

Dragons usually stood at the peak of the food chain. They were among the strongest beasts in any environment. The rank 8 Foolery was also powerful, but its innate abilities couldn’t help Noah in that situation.

"I will defeat one of them," Noah replied. "Try not to die. They seem strong."

The rank 8 Foolery snorted before diving toward the enemy pack. Its underlings followed it, and Noah didn’t hesitate to imitate it. He even ordered the other beasts to charge ahead.

The two rank 8 dragons didn’t immediately believe that Noah would fight them, but they had to change their minds when they saw him turning into a black sword and reaching their position in an instant.
