Chapter 1743 - 1743. Suppression

The waters from the lakes fused with Cynthia's body and began to alter her figure. Her skin turned pure white, and the same happened to her eyes. White hair also grew from her bald head as her wrinkles vanished.

Her facial features changed and developed conflicting details. Part of them became smooth while others gained sharp angles. It seemed that Heaven and Earth were trying to transform her into multiple existences at the same time.

The same transformations happened to her body. The waters straightened her hunched back and gave her conflicting features. Half of her c.h.e.s.t continued to belong to a woman, while the other side flattened before bulging muscles grew.

Noah didn't hesitate to unfold his defenses and spit black fireballs toward every liquid stage expert that his companions had yet to kill. Something dangerous was about to arrive, and he couldn't let his previous battle affect his condition.

The fireballs caught by surprise a few experts and burnt entire pieces of their bodies. The flames then brought the energy back to Noah, but he didn't feel satisfied with the results.

Night took care of the matter before he could order anything. The Pterodactyl came out of the separate space and descended toward the ground, where it beheaded a series of careless experts in a few seconds.

The creature then pierced those corpses with its strange pointy head and brought them back to Noah. He could let his dark matter devour them at that point.

Cynthia continued to transform while Noah took care of restoring his power. She soon lost the ability to fly and crashed on the ground, but her body didn't suffer any injury during the impact.

Some conflicts still happened inside her figure, but they didn't come from her existence. Heaven and Earth were simply stabilizing her new state.

"Your existence is starting to annoy us," A familiar androgynous voice eventually came out of Cynthia's mouth. "Surviving our trap wasn't enough. You also had to learn how to lie to our followers."

"Lying is your specialty, Earth," Noah laughed. "It's quite funny that existences capable of suppressing an entire world have to resort to lies to gain followers."

"Your taunts have no meaning in our ears," Earth replied through Cynthia's body. "You are nothing but an existence who likes to spread chaos."

"I'm very good at it, apparently," Noah continued to laugh. "You couldn't wait to deal with me directly."

Earth stopped speaking when a powerful aura spread from Cynthia's figure. Noah could sense the rulers' auras refilling the spots that his dark light had cleared, but his instincts warned him about it nonetheless.

There was something different inside that aura. Noah still recognized it as Heaven and Earth's power, but it felt more dangerous than usual when he inspected it.

"What are you trying to do now?" Noah asked while glancing at the rest of the battlefield.

Robert was still busy fighting his opponent, even if the two had slowed down their exchanges to focus on the sudden event. Sword Saint appeared bored as he sat on the severed corpse of his opponent while continuing to float in the air. His other friends had basically cleared the entire surface, so they could retreat whenever they wanted.

"It's been a long time since we had to think so often," Earth explained as the strange aura condensed inside Cynthia's figure. "You made us try hard to take care of you. We only have to tune some last details."

Earth pointed her palm toward Noah, and his instincts started to scream. The dark world immediately expanded and covered his figure, but the sea of dark matter crumbled as invisible energy seeped inside the technique.

Noah shot higher in the sky as his ambition exploded. His centers of power quickly reached the last stage and tier of the eighth rank, and roots gathered on his right hand to create a second sword.

"Ambition," Earth snorted. "What a troublesome but necessary law."

Earth's aura spread through the entire region in an instant. Noah couldn't dodge it, and astonishment filled his mind when he sensed that his law began to lose its effects.

His cultivation level fell as his ambition lost power. His centers of power returned to their real level and left Noah without any empowerment.

'What is even happening?' Noah shouted in his mind.

Earth didn't attack him. The strange aura didn't even hurt his existence, but his ambition felt unable to activate its effects inside that environment.

"Who would have thought?" Earth exclaimed when she noticed Noah's surprised expression. "We might not need to perfect the counter."

Earth suddenly shot forward. Her body seemed to fuse with the world as space bent in her favor. She didn't deploy any technique, but she still reached Noah in an instant.

Her hand quickly landed on Noah's c.h.e.s.t, and a burning sensation spread from that spot. Earth began to drain his body of dark matter, darkness, primary energy, and mental energy as that contact continued to stand.

The armor of dark matter and the black roots had been unable to stand the energy seeping out of Earth's figure. They had crumbled as soon as her influence touched them.

A resolute expression appeared on Noah's face. He wouldn't let Earth take the result of his countless struggles away so easily. She had to beat him to earn them.

The unstable substance started to flow inside his black vessels and turned Noah's body into the best middle tier weapon in the world. His fingers arched to become claws that slashed at Earth's arm and severed it with a clean move.

Noah then kicked Earth on the c.h.e.s.t, and most of her torso disappeared as she flew backward and crashed on the golden barriers. The event created a shining trail in the sky that perfectly fused with the world.

Earth released light from her open c.h.e.s.t. That power had allowed her to remain in one piece after the recent attack, and she also used it as fuel for her abilities.

"We always forget your physical strength," Earth sighed while leaving the golden barrier and focusing on Noah. "You should be ashamed of what you did to obtain it."

Earth's words made Noah's mental sphere tremble. A tinge of guilt appeared among his mental sea and tried to spread through his entire mind, but scarlet shades promptly came out of his thoughts and took care of it.

Noah raised the severed arm above his head and burned it with his black flames. The fire gave him part of the energy stolen by Heaven and Earth and brought him back near his peak, but no happiness appeared on his face.

"You don't have your tools today," Noah announced as energy flowed inside his body. "I can still destroy you."

"Destroy?" Earth asked before exploding into a loud laugh. "This body is only one of the many puppets under our control."

Earth mocked Noah by grabbing one of her legs and tearing it away. She didn't show any pain, but Noah didn't know if Heaven and Earth could still feel that sensation.

"This is only a prototype meant to counter your law," Earth laughed. "You might survive now, but you won't have a chance next time. Our new form will be over by then, and we'll also have our tools."
