Sublunary Plane, Ethereal Realm.
The beings that had entered the Abyssal Plane Expedition for over a week returned at this time, coming back as entirely new beings!
The power each of them wielded was terrifying as they caused the surrounding air to shake, Noah and Annalise settling in first before making any moves.
The first set of moves made was just a few hours of relaxation, Noah returning to the Imperial Castle for a feast he had already sent word of in advance before their return.
It was only after a few hours of enjoying the finest delicacies that Noah began to carry out multiple actions at once. First and foremost was the strengthening of his forces, and this meant him taking out the few thousand STAR Cores to produce multiple experts of this rank!
There was also the distribution of Universal Law Crystals to enhance their power, Rose enjoying these boons as well as the Ethereal Queen was also about to achieve a tremendous boost in power.
When all of this was underway, Noah then made the move to go see the neglected Catherine as he utilized Spatial Puppet Master to return to her Chaotic Realm alone this time around.
WAA!
The silver light faded from him as he appeared beside the subjugated Blessed he left behind in the Realm of this Dimensional Ruler, the memories of this being this past week having told him how annoyed Catherine had been for not even seeing a speck of him!
.
The instant of his arrival, a shockingly powerful force appeared behind him as the fist of a STAR Rank expert made its way forward.
BZZZT!
The fist smashed onto Noah's [Mental Field], the passive circular defense of mental energy actually stopping the strike of this expert with ease as Noah's eyes flashed with power a second later, her figure being shuttled back a few meters!
…!
"You…!"
Catherine looked towards him in shock as she saw his calm demeanor and seamless deflection of power, seeing the powerful waves of a being in the STAR Rank as she could hardly believe it!
Noah smiled lightly as he didn't stay still, his body moving forward as he spoke.
"Sorry for being gone for too long and not accompanying you for the sparring sessions. I'll make up for it today by going all out and using the essence of Destruction with power at the same rank as you!"
WAA!
Noah's body flashed with an obsidian light as he spoke, [Armament] covering his body as he gained +20,000% to attack and defensive boosts among other things, the essence of Destruction palpable on his body as he looked like a being with a metallic glint, fearlessly tearing through the skies to reach Catherine's figure.
BOOM!
His fist seemed to be the only thing in front of Catherine's eyes as it threatened to drown out her figure, her body instinctively reacting as the essence of Chaos wrapped around her, but she was actually pushed back and couldn't withstand Noah's strike, her figure shooting like a cannonball from the skies and into the dark seas beside the castle!
…!
Her mind buzzed in shock as she barely got her bearings, only to see Noah's figure rushing towards her in the dark sea with his voice ringing out once more.
"You've fully assimilated Chaos as you can already sense the Dao of Destruction. You're a true genius indeed, and just need a small push."
BOOM!
Noah's fist arrived again as it caused the sea water to burst open for an entire mile, Catherine's figure sinking within as the essence of Destruction from Noah's strikes ravaged her body and threatened to tear it apart!
One must remember, this was the same Dimensional Ruler that had to lower her level a rank lower so that she could spar with Noah for days while getting infinitely close to the Dao of Destruction, yes now she could only take punches and defend passively under Noah's strikes at the same level!
She even wanted to ask for a time out, but Noah's attacks were relentless as with enhanced soul and consciousness, just the single cast of [Armament] that used his mental energies to give him stupendous physical enhancements was more than enough to handle a high tier Dimensional Ruler with the reinforcement of a Grand Dao.
BOOM! BOOM!
Strikes continued to cause tremors deep in the sea as Catherine initially had a shocked and angered expression as Noah thrashed her. But this expression very quickly changed.
From shock and anger...it soon turned to excitement as this battle junkie began to feel Destruction in a true sense, Noah not holding back as every strike shook her to her core!
WAA!
The particles of chaos roiled around her as a Flower of Chaos bloomed to stand against Noah's punches, but the petals of the flower were torn as the single obsidian metallic hand covered by Armament was able to smash onto the body of Catherine once more.
"Huk!"
Red blood dyed the dark seas as Noah's voice reverberated out under the water.
"Destruction...the same essence that is currently ravaging your defenses and might take your life at any moment."
BOOM!
"Feel it closely, and try to grasp it as an even greater form of Chaos!"
…!
Noah was voicing out domineeringly as he continued to thrash the Dimensional Ruler, blood dying the seas as even at this moment, Catherine's gaze remained that of excitement.
This was because she had an inkling of something. She felt like she wasn't too far away.
The more her body was ravaged, the more she felt like it was getting closer to her!
With every strike that Noah threw, her Origin seemed to be calling out to the essence ravaging her body as she reached out, almost grasping onto something wondrous.
[Ruler's Emenation].
BZZT!
Noah called out lightly as the seawater around them trembled, the pressure containing the essence of the Grand Dao of Destruction pressing onto Catherine's figure on all sides as she faced heavy suffocation!
This was the strength of the being that had devoured millions of souls of Abyssal Fiends.
This was the strength of a soul that far exceeded all others in the same level!
Under such intense pressure, Noah's fist appeared in her clear dark eyes. The fist carried with it Destruction, and the surrounding pressure pressed onto her with the very same Destruction.
Facing such a deadly attack, Catherine actually...didn't throw out a counter attack as Noah's fist landed directly on her chest.
…!
His fist sunk in as her chest caved in, the force spreading outward as it shattered multiple ribs and bones, the Origin of this Dimensional Ruler nearly shattered!
But in this state. Her eyes blazed with light as she muttered weakly.
"So this is Destruction…"
RUMBLE
Her weakened body and soul that seemed about to fade seemingly sensed something with her words, a shining black light erupting from her a second later as Noah stopped attacking.
It was the light of Destruction!
On this day, Noah actually thrashed around one of the most powerful STAR Rank Dimensional Rulers from the Sublunary Plane, and when one thought about the fate of the ones he considered his enemies...it was bound to be a hellish next few days for them!
