Birth of the Demonic Sword Chapter 1662 - 1662. Abilities

Chapter 1662 - 1662. Abilities

Noah didn't expect Otto to dodge the attack. The expert was only a liquid stage expert, while his slashes could threaten even upper tier magical beasts.
Still, Noah couldn't deny the obvious. Otto had dodged Noah's singularity with a strange movement technique. His body had moved on its own. It was as if something had pulled his waist away from the range of the singularity.
"What's the meaning of this?!" Otto shouted, but his eyes soon ended on his dead companion.
Anger filled Otto's mind. His aura expanded and tried to reach the many defenses inside the floating lake, but Noah promptly activated the dark world to stop that event.
Waves of dark matter flew through the insides of the floating lake and restrained Otto's mind. The expert wanted to activate the many defenses inside the area, but Noah's technique prevented him from reaching the triggers.
The underlings inside the various buildings had felt that sudden surge of energy and had begun to exit their training areas to inspect the situation. Yet, the waves of dark matter engulfed them and sealed their senses.
'Don't do anything stupid,' Noah threatened as his mental waves reached Harold's consciousness.
Noah didn't want to fight with such a liability, but Otto had ruined his plans. He didn't expect the expert to dodge his surprise attack so easily, so he had to fight with Harold as a bystander now.
'I surely won't, Master,' Harold teased Noah, but the latter activated part of the restraints on his centers of power.
The sword-shaped energy inside Harold seeped inside his centers of power and suppressed their abilities. A sense of weakness filled the expert and almost made him faint. His aura became unstable, but the dark matter kept him in the air anyway.
"You have chosen to die," Otto shouted.
The dark world had improved after gaining an understanding of the laws of space. It became denser, and its stability increased. Moreover, its ability to suppress cultivators had improved since the overall technique had become heavier.
Otto couldn't sense his underlings. He had seen that Fog had died due to Noah's sudden attack, but he couldn't find his corpse anymore either. The anger that he felt knew no bounds. The expert wanted to make Noah pay for putting him into that situation.
Noah didn't let Otto gain the upper hand. His Demonic Sword quickly appeared in his grasp, and an even stronger singularity flew out of it. The dark world enhanced the attack and added a dense layer of dark matter to its edges.
The singularity had the shape of a massive flying wall that devoured everything on its path. Only the dark matter and the buildings survived its passage, but anything else vanished before that power.
The underlings that had come out to inspect the situation ended up facing the massive flying wall. Their bodies vanished as the singularity engulfed them. Countless cultivators died during the attack, but Noah only had eyes for the liquid stage leader.
A white light came out of Otto's figure. The singularity engulfed his figure, but he teleported away before his body began to disintegrate. The dark world tried to suppress that ability, but it only managed to limit its effects.
Otto reappeared inside the dark world, but he showed a surprised expression at that sight. He planned to escape the technique and face Noah under the white sky, but the latter had stopped that.
Noah closed his eyes and let his understanding of the laws of space flow inside the dark world. The dark matter began to create faint but dense arrays that imitated the structure of a dimensional tunnel but that also applied opposite effects.
Dimensional tunnels usually allowed existences to travel across large areas in a shorter time, but the dark world was doing the opposite. Every meter inside the technique became similar to kilometers. Otto didn't hesitate to shoot toward the edges of the dark cloud, but he seemed unable to get close to his destination.
That was only a temporary measure to suppress the expert. The flaw of that ability was the dark matter itself. Otto was a liquid stage cultivator, so he could destroy large pieces of the dense higher energy and free himself from those restraints. However, his ugly situation made him unable to think properly.
Also, destroying a chunk of the dark world would only place Otto back into the outside world. He would still have dark matter around him, so it was better to save his strength if something else arrived.
Noah didn't deploy that suppression casually. He had to handle Harold, but he couldn't do that while fighting Otto and his underlings. He would have no chance to win against a rebellion and an entire army.
A horde of rank 7 and 8 cultivators appeared in front of Noah, but they couldn't sense him. They were gaseous stage experts at best, so his technique could make them completely unaware of their surroundings.
Noah expanded his consciousness and drew the cursed sword. Bloodl.u.s.t began to spread from his figure while he placed the weapon on his forehead.
The dark world enhanced his mental capabilities and allowed him to sense every expert inside the various buildings. His sharpness could spread freely through those structures, and a series of attacks appeared once he slid the weapon through his forehead.
His sharpness intensified and gave birth to singularities that targeted all the experts in its range. Noah could sense every expert inside the floating lake, so his attacks managed to reach everyone.
Large vertical singularities opened from the center of the experts and filled the environment with Noah's sharpness. The few cultivators who managed to survive that attack had to deal with the random cuts that spread in the area and around them.
Those weaker cultivators couldn't avoid that attack. Even those who had dodged the first wave of singularities would fail during a second attempt.
It was pure chaos. Singularities filled the insides of the various structures and killed every cultivator in sight. No one managed to survive that mad offensive, and the number of Noah's opponents soon shortened to one.
Otto was still trying to leave the dark world, but his efforts didn't lead to decent outcomes. There seemed to be an infinite sea of dark matter between his position and the edges of the technique. He appeared unable to reach it even after he had flown at full speed for so long.
"That won't help you," Noah laughed while revealing himself in front of the expert.
"Where are the others?" Otto asked, but Noah's cold smile was enough as an answer.
Otto closed his eyes and let his law expand through that suppression. A blinding light came out of his figure and pierced the dense waves of dark matter surrounding him.
His discharge of power wasn't enough to defeat the technique, but the light soon expanded and created branches that spread through the dark matter. It only took an instant before a white halo began to shine inside that darkness.
The dark matter crumbled under that influence. The expert decided to resort to the other approach to defeat Noah. He would destroy the dark world from the inside before finding Noah and killing him.
