Birth of the Demonic Sword

Chapter 2080 Trust

Gales of energy raged among the void. The fabric of space couldn't even come close to withstanding the massive amount of power discharged during the last clash, and its shockwaves only stretched the range of that destruction.

Silence filled the area. Nothing moved inside the gales. The waves of energy spread among the void and partially dispersed before a pulling force manifested its presence from the center of that mess.

The gales collapsed and converged toward their center until Noah's figure became visible among that blackness. A dark glow came out of his skin as the ethereal blackness expanded and generated more potential. He had added another feat to his life, and his power grew because of that.

Drawbacks started to fall on his centers of power while he hovered with his eyes closed among the void. His skin began to open, his dantian grew unable to contain its darkness, the black crystal became unstable, and his mind wandered from one unclear thought to another.

The companions experienced similar moments of weakness. They had gone through the two cycles of ambition during the battle, so they had to endure drawbacks. Still, the ethereal blackness quickly filled Noah with power that spread throughout his arsenal.

It didn't take long before Noah opened his eyes. His dark glow dimmed and vanished in a matter of seconds. The environment even seemed to reach a new level of silence when his cold gaze fell on the darkness. The world appeared scared, but those effects quickly vanished as he regained complete control of his power.

The growing potential and the energy absorbed from the environment brought Noah to a higher peak, but he wasn't in the mood to enjoy his improvements. His eyes went on the whiteness in the distance as cold and violent thoughts spread in his mind.

'Did he lie?' Noah wondered. 'He wouldn't have lied just to gain an advantage, right? He must have spoken the truth.'

Noah didn't miss the faint fear that had spread among the world, but he felt temporarily unable to focus on that. He had to think about something else. According to Dinia, Heaven and Earth had killed June.

Memories tried to fill his vision, but his coldness didn't let anything disrupt my concentration. Noah wanted to stare at the sky as if his action could solve his doubts. Of course, the white material didn't reveal anything, but he didn't stop anyway.

'Did they know about the Perfect Circuit already?' Noah asked himself. 'That doesn't sound right. Heaven and Earth would have used it far earlier otherwise.'

That hypothesis led to a simple realization. Heaven and Earth had learnt how to use the Perfect Circuit properly after killing June, which involved an absorption of her law or world. Still, Noah didn't know how to proceed from that.

Technically, something of June was alive if Heaven and Earth had absorbed her law. Noah didn't know how much of her had remained, and he wasn't even sure he could do anything about the situation. However, he couldn't stop thinking about the issue, especially after seeing Great Builder and Supreme Thief's resurrection.

Resurrecting worlds that had managed to remain hidden from Heaven and Earth's system was one thing. It almost felt doable in Noah's mind now that he thought about it. Yet, he didn't know what level June had reached during the years spent among the storms. She could have remained a mere law, reducing her chances of coming back to life.

Moreover, even if June had died after becoming a world, Heaven and Earth had still absorbed her. Noah knew that he would become able to mess with the rulers' system during the last stages of his cultivation journey. Yet, he didn't know what he would be able to retrieve. The remains of a law or a world wouldn't transform his lover, not entirely at least.

Retrieving June's law or her world would give Noah the chance to rebuild her existence. Still, he had seen the limits of his power with Robert, and the issue would be even harsher with June. If Dinia had told the truth, she had lost in her endless pursuit of battles and letting Noah recreate her would only put a permanent limit on her potential.

Noah felt unable to find a way out of that problem. He didn't know enough about the situation to understand how to approach the issue, and his hopes weren't great anyway.

June's defeat was the core part of the problem. Noah knew that she would have fought until the bitter end, which hinted at the almost complete destruction of her existence. The rebuilding would have to be extensive and deep, which could still be fine with other experts. However, June was different. Her existence couldn't accept that kind of help without losing its potential.

'Did you really die?' Noah eventually sighed.

The lack of answers, uncertainties, and general annoyance about the situation made Noah desire to throw himself at the sky and destroy as much as he could. He could sense countless violent thoughts giving him ideas on how to shatter everything Heaven and Earth had created during his breakthrough. He wanted to cause a mess to avenge June or solve his doubts about her state, but he didn't let himself fall prey to those desires.

Noah knew that he could only trust June. They had always known the risks of the cultivation journey. Their old promises had happened for that exact reason. The chances of reaching the peak of the cultivation journey together had always been slim, so they had to take those precautions.

'What now?' Noah wondered as his hand moved among the void.

Nothing happened until Noah summoned the same cold and violent thoughts that had filled his mind during his recovery. The void started to show the faint fear witnessed previously at that point. It seemed on the verge of doing something, but Noah couldn't trigger any reaction.

'Is my world so heavy?' Noah pondered. 'Am I reaching the depths required to affect these aspects of the universe?'

Truth be told, Noah couldn't find answers to those questions either. He had merely gazed at the realms past the ninth rank, so he was unclear about the powers required to make the universe adapt to his existence.

Nevertheless, Noah took that as a good sign. It didn't matter if his path had yet to touch the effects that only the realms past the ninth rank could obtain. The void was reacting to his presence, which was incredible considering his state as a gaseous state existence.

Heaven and Earth slowly rebuilt the area, and Noah didn't stop that process. He let the fabric of space heal and return to its normal whiteness before planting a quasi-living workshop.

His original plan was still in place, but he wanted to accelerate his pace a bit. June's potential death had filled his mind with a bit of anxiety. Noah wanted to become strong enough to carve answers out of the sky or find past companions quickly.

His friends weren't idiots, and the assets left on the black landmass weren't weak. Some of them would have survived the expansion of the weak sky, and Noah wanted to question them. Still, finding them came first, and accelerating would make their meeting happen sooner.
