Chapter 816
Noah's eyes sharpened when he saw the white sphere flying toward him . He had yet to use any of his "Breath" . Even the slash from before had only consumed primary energy .
However, it felt strange seeing an opponent manipulating his flames so easily .
Noah slashed toward the sphere, but he chose to use his darkness at that time . The Demonic Sword roared when it felt that energy flowing through its form and released a black line that severed the incoming attack in two and continued to fly toward Peaceful Storm .
There rank 5 cultivator of the Empire felt slightly surprised when he saw that outcome and moved to dodge slash . Yet, right before the black line went past him, it divided and gave birth to a cloud of black smoke . The could then took the form of multiple sharp claws that changed their trajectory to chase after the cultivator .
All of Noah's abilities had changed drastically in the past years . Creating a personal "Breath" had forced Noah to adapt most of his attacks to his new energy, which meant completely reinvent them at times .
His Dragon's Claw martial art had initially been just a tool that made use of his physical might and his spreading destruction . Yet, it wasn't any different from a spell now that Noah used the Demonic Sword as a conduit for his darkness .
The energy that he had created could easily take any shape while also keeping its destructive force since all its particles were small swords capable of high sharpness . Noah could just pour power into his weapon and decide to change the shape of his attacks even when they had already left the sword!
Also, the fact that the Demonic Sword had the corrosive smoke of the Demonic Form as part of its fabric made each of its attacks quite threatening .
Peaceful Storm saw the incoming claws and felt forced to drop his previous behavior . He lifted his arms slowly, keeping his palms toward the sky as if he was trying to create an upward gale .
To Noah's surprise though, his attack suddenly changed trajectory and missed the cultivator's head by a few centimeters .
Peaceful Storm was about to speak again after he blocked that attack too, but Noah had charged ahead as soon as he understood that the claws weren't going to hit him . The rank 5 cultivator realized just one instant too late that Noah was already above him, ready to deliver a kick to his face .
Noah felt the world around him changing at that point . His opponent had been in front of him just now, but he could only see the blue sky a fraction of instant later .
At first, Noah thought that Peaceful Storm had used some kind of movement technique to disappear from that spot, but he soon noticed that his opponent was still in his original position .
The cultivator didn't move at all . It was Noah the one who had been flung away!
Noah didn't feel hurt, but his mind reviewed the scene at high speed as he prepared for another offensive .
'Does he control the space?' Noah thought as he deployed a series of saber-shaped runes from his palm . 'That should be impossible . King Elbas would have made the dimensional portal far sooner if it was possible to create an aptitude able to control the space . '
He activated the Divine Deduction technique to analyze the strange cultivator's individuality, and he found just an explanation that could solve his doubts .
