Chapter 1227 1227. Stuck

Noah's breakthrough was the result of his law. His ambition had empowered his cultivation level so much that he had advanced to the solid stage.

Of course, that was only a temporary boost. Noah would suffer a backlash when the effect of his ambition ended, but he was ready to endure it. He only wanted to have the power to face the Eternal Snake head-on.

The creature slithered right above the ground. Its skin didn't touch the terrain, but cracks opened anyway at its passage. The pressure generated by its aura and its quick movements were something that even the new continent couldn't endure.

The Snake didn't manage to sense Noah in the sky when he was still in the quasi-solid stage, but his complete breakthrough made his aura impossible to miss.

Moreover, the Snake sensed that Noah aimed at it. Any other magical beast would normally stop and face its opponent at that point, but the creature from the Immortal Lands continued to fly toward the trace of the egg's aura.

Noah felt strange at that sight. The Eternal Snake was at the peak of the sixth rank and had the best body for a creature at its level. Very few beasts in the entire lower plane could be its opponents, but it wasn't free to follow its instincts.

The mission given by the leaders in the Immortal Lands was too important. The Snake would ignore everything and everyone to complete it.

A mighty magical beast was nothing more than an underling in the Immortal Lands. Noah felt his ambition surge again at that sight, but he didn't have the time to remain immersed in his thoughts.

A human-shaped crack replaced his figure, and Noah reappeared on the escaping Snake with the Demonic Sword already in his hands.

Noah didn't want to use all the power accumulated with his ambition, so he didn't pour all his energy into the slash that followed his reappearance. Yet, he launched an attack that no creature in the upper tier could block completely.

His dark world flowed into his blade, and the Demonic Sword launched it when Noah slashed with all his strength. A massive fissure appeared on that spot, and the dark matter released in the attack expanded to give birth to a large cloud.

The dark world made its appearance and covered part of the beast's body. There was a limit to how much Noah's technique could affect beings that didn't rely on laws, but he didn't dare to face the Snake without his dark matter.

The Snake roared in pain, but it didn't stop to face its opponent. It continued to fly, but it launched attacks that didn't make him lose any time.

Noah saw a layer of ice covering the edges of the dark world. His dark matter tried to fend it off, but there seemed to be more than just water in that technique.

Silver drops floated among the ice and gave it metallic properties. They also radiated a peculiar aura that made them hard to inspect.

Noah had never seen anything like that, but that wasn't the time to analyze the materials that made his opponent's abilities. He had yet to make the Snake stop in the end.

'Am I not even worthy of your attention?' Noah thought as a tinge of anger appeared in his mind.

Snore formed among the dark world, and Night came out of his space-ring. He planned to go all-out now, but he had to use his Companions to preserve the boost given by his ambition.

The ice continued to cover the dark world, but Night took care of it. Its figure became one with the dark matter and destroyed the innate ability of the Snake.

The dark world improved both Night and Snore. The two of them also had a connection with Noah, so they benefited from his ambition.

Shards of ice fell toward the ground, but the Eternal Snake didn't stop. Noah's last slash had only managed to break a few scales, but that didn't even count as an injury.

Noah saw the body of the Snake moving through the dark world and closed his eyes. Both his hands went on the Demonic Sword as he pointed its tip toward the flying creature.

He could see everything inside the dark world, and its analysis surpassed most inscribed items meant for that purpose when Noah used it together with his consciousness.

Noah studied the structure of the Snake. He soon understood that the beast wasn't flying. Its claws gave birth to a thin layer of silver ice that allowed it to slither above the ground.

His destruction made him understand the weak structural points in the creature's body. Noah wasn't sure about that evaluation since it was mostly a faint feeling, but it didn't hurt to trust his individuality.

The dark world began to shrink as large quantities of dark matter flowed inside the Demonic Sword. Noah left enough higher energy to cover Snore and Night, but he poured everything else in his living weapon.

Noah performed a downward lunge at that point. An immense piercing force shot from his figure and flew toward the bottom of the Snake's body.

Snore joined the assault too. Its wings unfolded and began to absorb primary energy while it launched its elemental attacks in the spot focused by Noah.

Night was also going to support Noah, but it waited to see the outcome of his lunge before deciding where to attack.

Noah reappeared on top of the Snake's tail. He had left the dark world and had followed the trajectory of his lunge and increased its power by adding the momentum generated during the sprint.

The Demonic Sword pierced the dark-green scales and dug through the muscles as Noah's physical strength pushed the tail downward. Snore's attacks also arrived, and they helped to destabilize the innate defenses of the beast.

The layer of silver ice crumbled under that pressure, and Noah could push the Snake's tail toward the ground at that point. The energy carried by his lunge continued to pierce the beast's tissues, and green blood rained out of that injury.

Noah's attack still had energy left. The Demonic Sword stretched as it pierced the tail from the other side and began to dig the terrain. The Snake didn't even bother to look at the cause of the pain it felt, but it soon became unable to move.

Something was blocking it. No matter how much it pushed. The Snake couldn't move, and it only felt more pain whenever it tried to force itself free.

The creature had to turn at that point. Its massive head pointed at its tail, and its reptilian eyes found a similar gaze inspecting it.

Noah had finally managed to stop the Eternal Snake's charge. His weapon was more than fifty meters long now, and part of it had reached terrain hard enough to keep the creature's still.

Noah's grasp remained on the Demonic Sword as it looked at the Snake. The creature was finally looking at him. It seemed that he had succeeded in becoming more important than its current mission.

The Snake opened its mouth, and silver drops fell from its fangs. Noah could guess that it had multiple innate abilities, but he soon had to suppress his curiosity to focus on the battle.

Snore coiled itself around the Snake's head and forced it to remain closed. Yet, the creature was stronger than the Blood Companion, so it slowly torn the tissues made of dark matter as it opened its mouth again.

The Eternal Snake began to prepare its attack again, but a series of cuts suddenly appeared near Noah, and the peculiar figure of the Pterodactyl appeared under the sunlight.

Chunks of flesh fell from the Snake's body, and more green blood splatted on Noah's figure. That didn't faze him, and he promptly stored every scale and piece of flesh in his space-ring.
