Chapter 1713 - 1713. Summoning

Noah had been quite clear with his words to Divine Demon. The expert had understood that Heaven and Earth were challenging his chance to survive the trap. There was a high chance that he was instinctively moving toward a way out of that situation.

The entire army followed Divine Demon. Noah and the others continued to release abilities to clear white areas and kill the crackling figures hidden inside them, but they mainly focused on the path ahead.

Noah and Robert were the only existences that could efficiently threaten the crackling figures, so they focused on those creatures. They were both in the solid stage at the moment, and their advantages against Heaven and Earth’s laws made them perfect for the task.

The rest of the army devoted itself to keeping away the threatening light. The experts didn’t want to become Heaven and Earth’s next meal, and Noah and Robert always needed more targets.

Noah did his best to alternate his explosions of dark matter that replicated his flames with his attacks. His body remained stable most of the time, but injuries continued to enlarge on his flesh.

The flames could never fully heal him. Noah couldn’t allow the crackling figures to kill his experts. It soon became evident that having enough firepower was the key to get out of that trap.

Nothing seemed able to stop Divine Demon. The whiteness fell apart when his influence reached it. The light transformed into part of his azure energy and condensed into dark-blue waves that surrounded his figure.

’Did he invent a new version of his higher energy?’ Noah wondered while he kept his focus on his surroundings.

Divine Demon’s usual higher energy was white and relied on density to reach the intended levels. However, the new one had dark shades that seemed meant to counter Heaven and Earth.

Noah could only be happy about that development. His army desperately needed experts who could destroy the light, and Divine Demon had become one of the best among them as soon as he started fighting.

The scales of the battle finally started to tilt in their favor, but Noah’s army had a weakness that Heaven and Earth didn’t share. The experts had a limited amount of energy, and many of them began to deplete their reserves after spending a few hours fighting the light.

The army slowly lost power as the escape continued. Noah couldn’t do anything to affect that feature. It was only normal for cultivators and hybrids to need breaks after launching their best abilities non-stop. Still, that put the whole mission at risk since the light resumed to gain terrain over them.

Noah and those who still had enough energy to fight tried to make up for that loss of firepower, but they soon abandoned that approach. It was impossible to save everyone. Trying to do that would only make the whole army die since it would exhaust the most resilient experts sooner.

King Elbas couldn’t find anything able to counter Heaven and Earth. He had studied the white pinwheel, but he didn’t have enough time with it. That matter also required entire decades at the very least. The expert couldn’t come up with something in such a short period.

Noah had eyes all over his army. He could see that the light continued to gain terrain as more experts became unable to give their best.

The whiteness even managed to reach some of the slower experts. Cries soon filled the area as those cultivators died under Heaven and Earth’s greed. Noah felt helpless about the whole matter, but he couldn’t risk his life to save them.

His priority was to keep his body stable and reach the end of that trap. Everything else didn’t matter. He had to be ready to sacrifice everyone to beat Heaven and Earth.

’We need more firepower,’ Noah thought at some point. ’I can’t deal with all the crackling figures that come out of the light.’

Noah had started to let go of some of the crackling figures on purpose. His body couldn’t handle too much stress, and his injuries never managed to close since burning the sky didn’t give him enough energy.

Snore and the other companions peeked out of his figure and deployed part of their abilities. The snake spat spheres made of violent dark matter, Duanlong absorbed entire chunks of whiteness, and the parasite launched ranged attacks that featured its corrosive aura.

Noah made sure that Night remained inside the separate space. The environment was too appealing for the Pterodactyl. He feared that his companion would go crazy among that light, and the latter seemed to agree with him since it didn’t complain too much about its role.

A singularity shot out of his figure at some point, and many crackling figures died in the process. The attack even destroyed a large white zone, but the creatures inside it resisted the invisible energy and released lightning bolts.

The experts had moved their entire focus on their attacks, so those lightning bolts ended up hitting them directly. The army lost many cultivators during that exchange, and Noah saw the overall firepower falling again.

’F.u.c.k it,’ Noah cursed in his mind. ’I’m calling him.’

Noah searched his mental sphere and took out a sword-shaped flare. He threw it toward Divine Demon, but the lump of mental energy activated before it could reach him.

The sharp mass of mental energy enlarged until it became a massive ethereal blade. A sword-shaped mountain had appeared among the whiteness, and threatening energy came out of its structure.

"What’s that?" Some of the experts asked while others gave voice to similar questions.

Noah ignored the sword and led the army around it. He didn’t know how Sword Saint would reach that place, but it seemed mandatory to activate the flare since his main issue was the lack of firepower.

The army flew past the giant sword and soon forgot about its existence, but a wave of power suddenly came out of the ethereal structure and cut a path that reached Divine Demon.

The wave of power didn’t hurt Noah and his underlings. Divine Demon’s energy didn’t even react to that sharp energy. It only cut Heaven and Earth’s laws, which enlarged the path created by Divine Demon.

Still, the sword discharged a few more waves of sharp energy in quick succession. The attacks spread in every direction. They seemed to search for something, and the structure lit up when it found its target.

A black line materialized on the giant sword and cut its structure into two parts. The sharp energy inside it transformed to take the shape of a faint membrane. A human figure appeared inside it, and Noah eventually turned when he sensed Sword Saint’s familiar aura.

’How did he even arrive here so quickly?’ Noah wondered when he saw Sword Saint coming out of the membrane and inspecting the environment.

Evident confusion filled Sword Saint’s expression. The expert raised his long eyebrows to inspect the area with his eyes, and his face lit up when he noticed Noah in the distance.

"Hey!" Sword Saint shouted when he saw Noah. "What is this place?"
