Birth of the Demonic Sword

Chapter 1855 - 1855. Astonishment

Noah had understood that something was incredibly off after seeing the traps in the area, but he didn’t expect something so shocking. He could accept that the Kesier apes had learnt how to harness the power of the old sky, but that scene left him speechless. Those magical beasts were deploying a second innate ability right in front of his eyes.

The orange lightning bolts fused with the shockwaves generated by the invisible energy and created a huge pillar that clashed with the crackling figure.​​

The impact generated an explosion that spread dangerous attacks throughout the entire area, but the sparks that flew toward the city burnt when they touched an invisible barrier that the experts had failed to sense.

The crackling figure lost pieces of its body as it flew back into the storms, but a vortex of chaotic laws followed its movements and restored its features. Its power even increased as gales fused with its sparks and intensified the noise they spread through the sky.

The three rank 9 Kesier apes used that chance to focus the entirety of their efforts on rebuilding the intermediate dimension. Their invisible energy condensed until it gained the solid shape of lines that fell on the tight array and restored the pieces destroyed by the last lightning bolts.

"Did they improve their species?" Noah wondered loudly.

It didn’t matter how many times he reviewed the scene. Noah couldn’t find additional items or tools on the Kesier apes. The power shown during the last exchange came from their bodies, which could only lead to an astonishing conclusion.

The experts around him couldn’t answer his questions, but they shared his confusion. It didn’t take an expert in the magical beasts’ field to understand that something had happened to those creatures. Still, another doubt soon appeared in their minds. They didn’t know if the Kesier apes had applied those modifications on their own or if an external existence had helped them in the process.

"How possible is something like that?" King Elbas asked while putting his pride away to request the opinion of an expert that surpassed him in that field. "Can they really modify their species on their own?"

Noah could only think about a loud "no", but his mind didn’t let him accept that simple answer. In theory, every magical beast would have an innate pride toward their species, and their hunger often made even the smartest among them focus on food rather than long experiments and plans.

However, the Kesier species theoretically had all the right cards to pull that incredible event off. The piece of the old sky, their intelligence, the chaotic laws surrounding the area, and a safe environment created a perfect foundation that most cultivators would envy. Noah couldn’t help but remain silent, even if something was telling him that he might be in front of an incredible feat.

The most surprising aspect of the lightning bolts released by the Kesier apes was that they still retained traces of Heaven and Earth’s power. They also belonged to the lightning element, which went against the usual wind aptitude of those creatures.

Noah couldn’t understand every detail of the creature’s power from his position. He did his best to confirm that the lightning bolts came from the energy inside their bodies, but that was as far as he could go. Anything else would require a thorough inspection probably accompanied by a dissection.

The crackling figure appeared far bigger than before when the storms around it disappeared. The sparks that ran through its body had grown unstable, but they seemed unable to leave its body. Still, they had become so intense that the space around them bent whenever the soundwaves generated by their noise spread in the environment.

The Kesier apes’ expression became grave at that sight, but they continued to fix the intermediate dimension even if their opponent didn’t hesitate to resume its descent. The crackling figure’s heavy steps on the air spread white lightning bolts everywhere in the area and created soundwaves that made the barrier defending the city tremble.

The creature resembled a natural calamity ready to destroy everything, but the magical beasts didn’t care. They were ready to give up on their lives if that allowed them to complete their task. Everything else didn’t matter, and Noah could read that determination in their eyes.

Noah felt almost tempted to help the creatures. After all, his group was the reason behind the Tribulation. Also, the Kesier apes seemed to be Heaven and Earth’s enemies, which made them natural allies in the battle against the world.

Still, Noah didn’t know how those creatures would react in front of humans and hybrids. The history of the Kesier species had never been happy due to the curse that they carried on their furs. They would become the target of powerful existences no matter where they were due to the runes drawn on their figures.

Another exchange happened during Noah’s hesitation. The three Kesier apes launched a series of pillars featuring orange lightning bolts and invisible energy. Still, their attacks didn’t manage to do much when they landed on the crackling figure. Instead, their opponent seemed able to absorb those blows and use them as part of its power.

"They have already adapted their punishment to their opponents," Robert commented as his expression darkened. "They took longer to adapt to us. Is it because of the complexity of our abilities?"

"Do they look simple to you?" Alexander sneered while shaking his head. "Heaven and Earth have probably fought with these creatures long enough to have counters ready."

"Take note that he called them creatures," King Elbas cheered. "Even Alexander doesn’t believe them to be part of the Kesier species."

"I would have given you the replicas of the spheres anyway," Noah revealed while taking a step forward and drawing the Demonic Sword. "Let’s go help them now."

His announcement surprised his companions, but they became aware of the reasons behind their words as soon as they escaped his mouth. They knew that the Kesier apes could be natural allies, and helping them during that struggle gave them a chance to make up for their previous actions.

The crackling figure raised its hand before turning it to point its palm toward the intermediate dimension. A blinding white radiance came out of it at that point, and everyone in the area became unable to rely on their vision after the attack descended.

The light suppressed the experts’ mental waves, but the screens created by King Elbas and Divine Demon remained intact even after the radiance engulfed them. Yet, a dark cloud soon appeared among the experts and restored part of their vision.

Noah had deployed the dark world to improve his situation and help his companions, and the whiteness slowly retreated in front of the dense dark matter.

Noah sprinted directly toward the three Kesier apes and reached the area around them in no time. The three magical beasts suddenly became aware of the new threat, but Noah made sure to raise both hands to gesture that he had had no intention to cause problems.

The creatures didn’t seem to believe in him. They limited themselves to accept his presence there while they raised their hands toward the sky. They had to face another massive attack.
