Chapter 2038 Everything
Everything went silent after King Elbas, Sepunia, and the dragon entered suitable training areas and Noah enveloped them with his dark world. The giant dark crystal hovered close to the sky, but it didn't move while the four experts sorted out and absorbed the resources seized in their mission.
Noah had limited options in his current state. Getting stronger would only worsen the weight that his body would have to endure, but he couldn't stop himself from improving right before facing the monster. His dantian had even reached the ninth rank, so his existence was finally able to deepen its aspects.
In the end, Noah dealt with the four spheres obtained from the dragons and spent a long time immersed in his thoughts to optimize a few techniques and focus on the main problem. He couldn't fight properly in that state. He had to find a temporary solution to his body.
Night, Snore, Duanlong, Shafu, the Cursed Sword, the parasite, the Demonic Sword, his mind, his dantian, and his black crystal had reached the ninth rank, leaving his peak rank 8 body to keep all that power together. Regular hybrids would have already turned into a bloody pulp due to the sheer weight applied by those entities, and Noah felt on the verge of falling apart too. Still, he could delay that event due to his many assets.
The black crystal compensated for most of the problems that his body was experiencing. Noah relied on his new dark matter and center of power to reinforce his structure, but that wasn't enough since his flesh remained between two powerful forces.
Only the improved unstable substance fused with his innate resilience and the incredible power of the black crystal could lead to faint stability. However, Noah could feel that eventual injuries or collisions could destroy that frail harmony and bring his body on the verge of shattering.
Truth be told, Noah had a plan, but most of its details remained unclear. The non-world was his best bet, but he couldn't absorb it in its current state according to what he had learnt about the monster.
The non-world probably didn't have energy that Noah could absorb, but he had a trump card. His ambition could force that non-existence to evolve and transform into a being that could satisfy his requirements.
In theory, Heaven and Earth had thrown countless laws into the void, so the monster would naturally have enough power to improve Noah's body, but that only if his ambition could force it to transform. Everything would depend on how his incomplete world made that empty creature evolve.
The evolution was obviously unclear since Noah didn't know much about the non-existence. Still, he believed that the monster would need to gain the usual features of the other entities in Heaven and Earth's world to improve. He could be wrong, but his lack of options didn't leave him many choices. The rulers had cornered him, so he had to improvise.
Black vessels made of dark matter took form inside Noah's body and allowed the unstable substance to reach specific parts of his flesh. He could feel the incredible strain that his fabric was enduring in that condition, but the black crystal appeased that feeling. Yet, the tension never fully dispersed. The stress accumulated slowly, and Noah could only calculate the years he had before falling apart.
The three different training areas benefitted from Noah's ambition, but there was a limit to how much the experts inside them could improve.
The dragon was the first to come out, but it quickly let itself go dormant among the dark crystals of the dark world. It had grown a bit after absorbing the prisms seized inside the sky, so it focused on increasing its potential now, and Noah's higher energy was perfect for that process.
Sepunia required a bit more to leave her training area. The expert's world had expanded and improved, but she remained a gaseous stage cultivator. Yet, the seclusion had added a mysterious glow in her eyes that the ambition didn't hesitate to intensify. Noah could even guess that his companion's power was finally going past temporary illusions.
Sepunia also limited herself to meditating while immersed in the crystals of the dark world. She didn't have any project at hand, so she let Noah's ambition increase her potential while the trio waited for King Elbas to come out.
Noah knew that the process would take a while, but he didn't feel in a hurry. King Elbas was aware of his condition, so he would probably try to complete his breakthrough quickly. Also, Noah felt sure that his companion would provide more temporary solutions once he came out.
A dense aura eventually spread among the dark world and forced Noah to recall his technique. That wave of power was so scorching and blinding that he also had to grab his two companions to retreat to safe areas.
The golden aura expanded among the void and shone among the blackness, suppressing the white light from the nearby sky. Such a massive event would usually attract Heaven and Earth's attention, but the rulers remained silent as if they were admiring the gigantic discharge of power.
The void seemed to move away to make room for the golden aura. King Elbas' world was so dense that even the empty blackness couldn't occupy the areas affected by his power.
The golden light expanded for a while before shrinking and revealing King Elbas' figure. The expert had destroyed his training area during his breakthrough, and he seemed busy stabilizing his current power.
Noah and the others waited as King Elbas' light slowly dimmed and allowed them to inspect his physical features. He didn't change at all, but his presence had grown heavier than ever. The expert seemed able to bend the space-time array with the sole weight of his existence. Also, a scorching rank 9 aura flowed out of his body while he kept his eyes closed.
King Elbas slowly opened his eyes, and the event unleashed another wave of dense energy, but he quickly stopped it with a wave of his hand. That power flowed back inside his body before seeping out of his skin and amassing in his palm.
A pill quickly took form as energy flowed in his palm. The drug shone with blinding golden light before darkening and transforming into a peak middle tier item that King Elbas didn't hesitate to throw at Noah.
Noah grabbed the pill and let his ambition flow inside its fabric. The drug improved without stepping into the upper tier, and he ate it once the enhancement ended. A wave of energy immediately filled his flesh, muscles, bones, and organs, reinforcing them with a series of barriers that seemed to suit his structure perfectly.
The pressure caused by his assets and dark matter grew softer after the appearance of the barriers, but they soon started to bend. That was another temporary solution, but Noah felt glad to have it since it would give him some freedom during an eventual battle. The drug had basically boosted his resilience.
"I know what you want to do with the non-world," King Elbas announced after teleporting in front of Noah. "I want a piece of its basic form."
"Do you even know how to contain it?" Noah mocked.
"I can do everything now," King Elbas stated in a calm tone that filled his companions with confidence.
The four didn't waste time questioning each other anymore at that point. They turned toward the darker area of the void in the distance. It was time to face the monster.
