Birth of the Demonic Sword
chapter-1680

King Elbas' technique had managed to destroy Noah's ambition. His curiosity could cancel other laws as long as he learnt their structure and created a perfect counter.

Noah's ambition had yet to fuse with the chaotic laws, so King Elbas could target his laws during the attack. The result of that action was the complete removal of Noah's existence from the environment.

Still, King Elbas had improved. His ability could even affect the insides of an expert now. His law had removed the ambition that filled Noah's figures and had left him only with chaotic laws.

Wilfred had then destroyed the energy in the area and had left Noah basically naked. He didn't have chaotic laws nor ambition around him anymore. His whole figure appeared empty.

Noah crouched on the ground. His centers of power wanted to prioritize generating his laws to fill his flesh, but the other world's will wanted him to resume mutating the environment.

Two forces fought inside his mind. The other world's will was an immense power that could crack his mental sphere, but his instincts had slowly tainted it during the past years.

The struggle didn't endanger his mental sphere. The other world's will wanted to maintain control over Noah, so it had to preserve its centers of power. Still, his instincts strived for freedom, and they could see a path to victory against that incredible power.

King Elbas and Wilfred stopped attacking. They glanced at each other before fixing their eyes on Noah again. They couldn't understand what was happening, but they knew that their techniques could seriously injure his friend now.

A deafening roar came out of Noah's mouth as he slammed his head on the ground. His actions enlarged the cracks created by Wilfred, and his voice attracted the Devils on the battlefield.

The human side didn't hesitate to exploit that event. All the Devils had turned to look at Noah, leaving many openings in their defenses. The cultivators could quickly seize a few victories against those annoying opponents.

Some of the darker Devils gathered around Noah. King Elbas and Wilfred saw those creatures amassing in the sky above them, but they didn't move.

Both experts were trying to understand what they had to do in that situation. They didn't know whether letting the chaotic laws cover Noah again was a good option, so they remained next to him.

The Devils didn't move either once they gathered above Noah. Their attention was on him, but they seemed to struggle to decide how to act.

The Devils were experiencing the same mental battle inside Noah's mind. They could hear their devotion toward Noah, but they were also children of the other world's will.

Noah continued to roar and slam his head on the ground. A tinge of awareness wanted to resurface inside his mind, but the other world's will didn't give it the chance to return.

The Devils' colors began to change. The black and red shades fought against each other to gain control over their figures. That battle represented their mental fight and also gave an idea of what was happening inside Noah.

'What is happening?' A thought eventually managed to surface in Noah's mind.

That thought had succeeded in piercing the other world's will and giving Noah a glimpse of awareness. Yet, that immense power quickly suppressed him again.

The short instant of clarity that had reached Noah made his instincts roar in anger. They only had slight influence over his mind, but they had been in contact with the other world's rage for years by then.

A desperate desire to fend off that will filled Noah's instincts. They knew that he wouldn't be free as long as that power continued to occupy his mind, so they activated his innate ability on their own.

Noah's mental energy surged and began to devour the other world's will. The immense power in that energy enlarged his mental walls and thinned their structure, but it also made room for his consciousness.

'The experiment!' Noah shouted when another thought managed to appear in his mind.

The will fought back, but the Devils around Noah wouldn't obey its commands. They remained in the air and watched as a mere existence tried to oppose the power contained by an entire world.

Of course, Noah wasn't actually fighting the will of an entire plane. His mind would never be able to contain that power.

Only a tiny chunk of that power had seeped inside Noah and was controlling his actions. The will's true might came from the state of its energy. It was even better than the dark matter!

Still, the will was in Noah's mind. It didn't matter how much energy it contained. The environment put it in a disadvantageous position since Noah's centers of power could give him a nigh-endless flow of energy.

His mental energy continued to devour the will and free more space. Noah's centers of power slowly began to regain control over their actions and started to fight that power.

Black matter quickly gathered around his head and tried to stabilize his mental walls from the outside. Noah's mind was enlarging too quickly due to the immense power contained in the will, and the higher energy wanted to slow down that process.

Noah stopped headbutting the ground and planted both hands on the terrain as growls began to escape his mouth. Lumps of flames also flew out of him, but they never spread too far past him.

Only his dantian remained silent. It seemed that the organ wasn't ready to fill his body with his law again. It was waiting for something that even his instincts couldn't understand.

The will slowly lost power, and tinges of clarity began to accumulate in Noah's mind. He didn't immediately regain his ability to think, but he could improve the procedures started by his instincts.

The various energies working inside Noah became smarter. The dark matter around his head didn't limit itself to contain the expansion of his mental walls anymore. It created a connection with Snore, Duanlong, and the parasite and redirected part of the will's energy toward them.

His black hole began to spin faster than ever. It forced his body to stabilize the many mutations that had affected his existence since the transformation.

Faint black smoke came out of Noah's pores and created a thin membrane that covered his skin. His body wanted to transform his flesh even without relying on a breakthrough.

'Get out!' Noah shouted inside his mind before losing the ability to think again.

Noah could only feel. He sensed a wave of immense anger, but that emotion didn't come from the other world's will. Every fiber of his being was furious. The images of the past years were flowing inside his mind, and they made him livid.

The other world's will had succeeded in keeping Noah under control for years. He couldn't accept that outcome. Waves of anger flowed into his mind and forced the mental energy to work faster.

'Get out!' Noah shouted in his mind again, and a tinge of darkness suddenly appeared inside his dantian.

The ground began to tremble as Noah's aura prepared itself to come out. King Elbas and Wilfred sensed the danger and exchanged a glance before leaving the area. Noah was on his own now.

The other world's will wanted the Devils to remain still, but those creatures eventually escaped from its control. They landed on the trembling ground and kneeled toward Noah while they waited for him to awaken.

"Get out!" Noah eventually managed to roar, and a dense wave of black flames escaped from his mouth.

The flames created a scorching pillar that rose higher in the sky as he tilted his head upward. Faint anger also seeped out of his figure before a violent aura spread from his skin and broke the thin chrysalis.
