Birth of the Demonic Sword

Chapter 1891 1891. Calm

The old rulers agreed to take care of the challenging mission, but Noah knew that they wouldn’t depart right away. Such a unique task required a long period of study, even when it came to beings that represented the original version of Heaven and Earth.

The mission would involve a deep understanding of the current state of the world and expertise in different abilities, and the right mindset. Destruction was nowhere near simple to spread, and Noah knew that far too well.

The lack of proper tasks or missions for Noah’s group forced them to remain inside the city. Their existences could accept the many magnificent buildings and their functions more easily after defeating the ghosts. They felt like a reward for their efforts, so their laws didn’t cause any problem when they settle inside specific structures to continue their training.

Alexander requested more items than his companions since he was approaching the ninth rank. The process required a massive amount of energy and inspiration, and many buildings inside the city could help him in those fields. The old rulers only had to help prepare the conditions that could benefit the hybrid the most.

The other experts limited themselves to pick training areas that suited their existence and wait. Everyone’s priority was to develop new trump cards before their inevitable return among the storms, which required a deeper understanding of their laws. Sadly, only a long period of seclusion could provide that.

The old rulers kept everyone updated about their discoveries. They took their mission seriously, and they even acknowledged that the order came from a relevant figure in the stormy regions. They wouldn’t consider Noah at the same level as the dragons, but he had stepped on the right path to gain the same recognition and even surpass it.

First of all, the rulers confirmed that the ghosts had vanished. They used sensors and decoys that radiated their energy, but nothing appeared. Those creatures weren’t hunting for them anymore, and that already improved their situation a lot.

The freedom gained after the achievement of Noah’s team wouldn’t only improve the old rulers’ study of the world. It could also allow a thorough inspection that they were desperate the obtain after remaining in the dark about many details that involved the storms and chaotic laws as a whole.

The end of the study would give the old rulers the knowledge required to create the perfect weapon for the current situation of the world. The mess would start at that point, but Noah’s group would most likely remain outside of it. After all, they only needed it as a distraction.

Noah’s cultivation didn’t proceed as well as he wished. His existence was ready to step into the ninth rank, but he had energy requirements to fill. Moreover, he wanted more. His current understanding didn’t satisfy him, especially when it came to some of the new aspects of his law.

Luckily for him, the dragon had given him part of the knowledge involving four features that greatly interested him. They had even revealed how he had to improve his current state, which saw adding time to his law.

The study of the spheres proceeded smoothly due to the straightforwardness of the process. The dragons’ items were pure knowledge that he only needed to absorb and transform to improve his current abilities. Yet, Noah didn’t want a simple improvement. He needed something stronger than that. Ideally, he had to create something entirely new that could take Heaven and Earth by surprise.

Noah was quite lost about the matter. The idea of creating a new ability when his understanding had yet to improve felt impossible. He had already perfected everything he had after completing the final slash and Shafu. The other aspects of his power didn’t work well together or were too weak to suit his current strength.

It felt almost necessary to expand his understanding of his aspects, and the dragons’ spheres were the perfect tool for that. They had profound meanings that could stretch even beyond his usual approach to laws. Noah had a path. He felt only annoyed by its sheer length.

The slow absorption of the spheres’ knowledge didn’t make Noah forget about King Elbas’ desires. The expert had never truly requested them, but it was clear that he wanted the dragons’ understanding too, and Noah didn’t refuse to help him simply because he had lost the bet.

Noah began a translation of the sphere during their study. He couldn’t replicate them perfectly because his understanding would inevitably alter the knowledge contained in those ethereal items. Yet, King Elbas was fine with that, so Noah used his dark matter to copy their structure and fabric.

Noah had yet to complete his study of the spheres, so his copies would come out as incomplete. Still, King Elbas wouldn’t care about that either as long as he increased the number of resources at his disposal. He was a maniac in that sense, but that was fine at his current level, necessary even.

The rulers didn’t say anything for entire months, and that silent period stretched through the years. The experts couldn’t do much to quicken the process. They could only do their best to make use of the safety generated by the city while an existence stronger than them took care of the inspection.

Noah didn’t remain inside his building all the time. He often visited King Elbas or Divine Demon to exchange ideas on the path ahead. The two experts represented paths that went in opposite directions, so their insights on the development of new abilities could help him in the issue.

Divine Demon was pure inspiration. The world and his mental ability would fuse to create the perfect technique in each situation. He didn’t need a trump card since each of his powers was a trump card.

King Elbas was the exact opposite. He was pure calculations. His vast storage items had numerous techniques and inscribed materials meant for an endless number of situations. He never stopped creating, and his habit had only worsened after getting his hands on the cauldron.

The three experts even gathered in the same building from time to time. Their conversations were mostly lighthearted, but they ended up touching on the cultivation fields, especially when Noah passed part of the copied spheres to King Elbas.

The sharing of opinions and ideas helped, but only on a superficial level. Their existences were too unique by then, so they could never affect each other too much. King Elbas, Noah, and Divine Demon had a few common traits, but they became completely different when they touched their laws.

It felt strange to know that they all knew how to move forward, but they found their companions’ words almost impossible to accept completely. Their minds had started to work in unique ways that matched their existences, so foreign ideas inevitably transformed into something different that matched their laws.

It was during one of those gatherings that a change in the routine inside the city happened. The old rulers had yet to provide an overview of the world, but their companion let his special training area and made sure to expand his aura to announce his new cultivation level.

Everyone in the group immediately gathered around him at that point. They wouldn’t miss listening to Alexander’s experiences for anything in the world. His breakthrough had been a success for all his centers of power, which instantly made him the most knowledgeable among them about the path ahead.
