Birth of the Demonic Sword
chapter-1285

Noah was unstoppable. Obtaining a superior physical strength made the Snake powerless against him. The storms could slow down his assaults, but they only ended up delaying the inevitable.

The divine armor didn't budge, but Noah's attack destroyed everything inside it. The surge of dark matter would normally sever only a chunk of the creature's body, but it managed to do far more damage in that close area.

The ice in the world began to tremble after the Snake died for the fourth time. The ominous aura radiated by that material became more intense and forced more frozen regions to shoot in the sky.

The ice appeared alive. It reacted to the creature's condition and didn't hesitate to fill the sky with storms when it sensed that its creator was suffering.

Noah knew that the ice and the Snake had a tight connection, but he didn't expect that material to overreact to the creature's condition.

Some worry appeared inside him. That was only the fourth death, but half of the world's frozen lands had already flown in the sky. Noah couldn't imagine what would happen once that number increased.

However, that situation didn't only benefit the Snake. Noah had initially calculated that the creature would have depleted that amount of ice after its sixth death. Instead, it seemed that the battle would last less than he expected.

That could only benefit him. A shorter battle would remove most of the uncertainties that accompanied his strategies. After all, Noah could lose only if the effects of his ambition ran off. He had already confirmed that the Snake was weaker than him.

Frozen mountains flew in the air and converged toward Noah while ice-shards flowed inside the divine armor to revive the Snake. The ice didn't want him to interfere with the healing process, and he had already accepted that he couldn't avoid ending up far away.

A silver mountain crashed on him, and cracks appeared on its surface before it broke into a series of large chunks of ice that spread through the sky.

The ominous aura suddenly became more intense while Noah flew away, and his fiendish smile widened when he sensed that. Night had hidden inside the armor before the storm arrived. The Pterodactyl confirmed through its connection with Noah's mind that it had killed the creature while it was about to revive.

Noah eventually managed to stop himself and charge toward the massive storm again. Half of the world had fallen into chaos. Still, that was the only possible outcome of a battle between existences at the peak of a lower plane.

More ice surged in the sky and fused with the storm that continued to rage above the frozen lands and sea. Snore had to appear in the open to help Noah fending off the giant silver chunks that flew around the reviving creature.

Something different was happening inside the storm at that time, but Noah didn't have time to waste. Snore launched a dark beam that opened a tunnel through the ice and allowed him to fly directly toward the divine armor in the distance.

Pieces of flesh and organs had begun to appear inside the armor, and Noah could even see the spots that Night had cut during its surprise attack.

He purposely slowed down his charge when that scene entered his vision. Noah wanted more ice to acc.u.mulate inside the armor so that the Snake's losses would increase after he destroyed its body.

The storm noticed Noah and tried to launch giant frozen boulders in his direction, but Snore appeared again and stopped most of them. The remaining chunks of ice crashed on his body but were unable to do anything.

Noah reached the Snake when a good part of its skeleton, tissues, and muscles had reformed. He stabbed the Demonic Sword inside one of the openings in the armor and released another lunge.

The attack filled the armor's insides with a raging dark matter that destroyed everything on its path. That incomplete body couldn't do anything to stop that destruction.

The Snake's sixth death arrived, and the ice understood that it couldn't stop Noah if it continued to hold back. The world began to tremble as all the frozen regions rose in the sky and converged toward the divine armor.

Noah felt fear when he saw pieces of ice as big as the old continents flying in his direction. He couldn't avoid that attack even if he used his movement technique to shoot high in the sky. The frozen regions were too big to escape from them.

His Demonic Sword began to tremble as Noah turned. Dark matter seeped out of his blade and began to rotate around it.

Noah wielded the Demonic Sword with both hands and raised it above his head as he focused on one of the huge pieces of ice flying in his direction. Part of the dark matter coming out of his blade created a vertical trail of dense smoke that appeared fused with the weapon.

When the massive piece of ice was about to hit him, Noah slashed, and a black line appeared in front of him. The attack divided the frozen land in half and allowed Noah to remain still while those two silver chunks surpassed him and converged toward the divine armor.

An intense shockwave spread in the sky after all the giant pieces of ice crashed on the Snake's position. A storm of ice-shards and debris flung Noah away, but he managed to stop himself when he was still close enough to inspect that event.

The central areas of the storm condensed and morphed. The ice that had previously covered the whole world had now gathered in the same spot to give birth to a new ability.

Noah could only prepare for the worst as he waited for the Snake to come out. He couldn't charge at the storm when they contained all the ice in the world. His physical strength was immense, but he would need to have a divine body to deal with those hindrances.

The storm quieted down after its central parts condensed, and the ice flying in the external areas also fell to fuse with that giant body. A massive silver mountain appeared in the sky once the process ended, and Noah couldn't even see its summit due to its immensity.

The ice began to morph again after that structure became stable. The mountain stretched, and a reptilian head soon appeared among those vague features.

Clawed arms grew from its bottom, and a tail soon became visible on its back. The mountain further condensed then, and its vague features became more detailed as they took the aspect of the Eternal Snake.

All the ice generated through the leader's innate ability had condensed in that area to create a massive armor. The Snake had now become almost as big as half of the old continents. It was immense.

Noah could only modify the strategies in his mind at that sight. He knew that the Snake would show something else once it neared its death, but he didn't expect it to summon all the ice in the world.

Luckily for him, the new armor wasn't a divine item. It exuded the same level of power as the Snakes' leader.
