Birth of the Demonic Sword - Chapter 2317

Chapter 2317. Future

The storm consisted of lightning bolts that shot in every direction before splitting into countless sparks. The latter expanded and created an oval area that allowed the many attacks to bounce on its edges.

Heaven and Earth had created a domain of destruction that had enveloped the entirety of the pack. Lightning bolts flew and ricocheted inside it while piercing anything in their path.

Most of the dragons were mere middle and lower tier creatures. King Elbas and the old rulers had improved their innate defenses to turn them into proper weapons that countered Heaven and Earth. Yet, those magical beasts couldn’t do anything in front of that immense difference of power.

The lightning bolts turned the dragons into dust. Only the upper tier creature managed to last for more than one attack, but that didn’t help.

The storm didn’t launch a single attack. The lightning bolts in its insides seemed to have infinite energy as they kept flying left and right. The time dragon endured the first attack, survived the second, but the third shattered its body.

In a matter of seconds, only lightning bolts and dust remained inside the storm. Heaven and Earth shone at the center of that domain, but no satisfaction appeared on their humanoid face.

The crackling figure waved its hand, and the dust started to flow toward its chest. Heaven and Earth absorbed the energy of the entire pack, but that didn’t lead to any improvement.

The storm shattered to send multiple flares across the higher plane. The lightning bolts fused with the sparks lingering above the sky and intensified the global offensive.

Even stronger attacks converged toward the landmass. Shafu did its best to absorb and deflect them, but its power remained limited. It couldn’t do too much against quasi-rank 10 techniques.

Heaven and Earth turned toward the landmass at that point. The gesture revealed their new target, but their crackling body suddenly froze. A series of golden and orange lights shot out from their insides and hindered their movements.

Noah, Sword Saint, Alexander, Wilfred, Divine Demon, the Foolery, Supreme Thief, Emperor, Queen, and Vesuvia teleported into the area and encircled the crackling figure. They had planned that outcome, so they had been ready to retaliate.

Giant attacks shot out of the experts. They all launched their best techniques in the hope of exploiting that moment of weakness, but Heaven and Earth turned out to be too strong.

The crackling figure burst with massive energy that shot in every direction and fended off the incoming attacks. The offensive even removed the orange and golden infections from Heaven and Earth’s body, freeing them of that hindrance.

“Did you think a mere magical beast could have affected us?” Heaven and Earth asked, and their voice launched precise soundwaves that flew toward their opponents.

Noah couldn’t focus on his companions in that situation. The soundwave carried a monstrous roar that threatened to break his mind, but a torrent of potential flowed toward Duanlong and allowed it to deal with the attack.

Immense energy filled Noah’s body. A power that he should have never absorbed flowed through his veins and centers of power, pushing them toward their structural limits.

Noah couldn’t help but voice a deafening roar, and black flames accompanied his cry. A sea expanded before his mouth, but that fire condensed and rotated as soon as he pointed his blades forward.

Destruction, hunger, and greed fused as Noah used the absorbed energy to launch an incredible offensive. Cracks opened on his arms and hands due to the immense pressure that fell on them. He was using Heaven and Earth’s power, and his body could barely withstand that.

His companions dealt with the soundwaves in different ways, but only Divine Demon, Alexander, Sword Saint, and Supreme Thief managed to send back attacks on their own. Emperor required Queen’s help to help in that offensive.

Heaven and Earth prepared to send another shockwave, but a series of abilities clashed with some of the incoming attacks before they could do anything.

Purple tendrils appeared in front of Alexander’s dense fire and Supreme Thief’s azure flare. The ability forced the two attacks to change direction and clash with each other. The impact created an immense explosion, but Heaven and Earth’s innate pressure prevented it from reaching their crackling figure.

Plants of different sizes and forms grew on the other side of the battlefield, hindering the path of Divine Demon, Emperor, and Sword Saint’s threatening attacks. The vegetation shattered under that offensive, but nothing reached Heaven and Earth.

The two defensive techniques ignored Noah’s attack, but that didn’t help his situation. His piercing slash unleashed everything it carried on the crackling figure, but it failed to shatter the lightning bolts that made its body.

The straight slash and the flames around it shattered as soon as they touched Heaven and Earth. They appeared unworthy of living so close to that superior existence.

“Did you forget about us?” Decumia laughed as she materialized next to Heaven and Earth.

“Heaven and Earth can deal with your tactics,” Marcella stated, “But wasting time is pointless.”

“Is he coming down as well?” Noah asked as dark matter came out of his injuries and closed them.

Decumia and Marcella glanced at Caesar. The latter had remained near the sky, behind the storms, and he seemed to have no intention of joining the fight. He showed a smile, but he didn’t bother to answer.

“Caesar served us well,” Heaven and Earth ended up responding. “His task is almost over. We only need to reap what he sowed now.”

“The mighty Heaven and Earth relying on someone else’s fate,” Noah mocked. “What a pitiful sight.”

“You have witnessed our power,” Heaven and Earth announced. “You would also give some credit to an existence who resisted us for so long.”

“You almost sounded like a magical beast,” Noah chuckled. “I guess you didn’t hate them so much in the end.”

“How dare you!” Marcella shouted before pointing her arm at Noah.

Multiple spiky plants came out of Marcella’s hand and grew rapidly toward Noah. Her attack behaved like a spear ready to pierce his chest, but that vegetation withered before it could reach its target.

“So much to eat!” The Foolery squealed as it landed on the vegetation and unfolded its hunger. “It’s so tasty! Give me more!”

“Piggy!” Decumia shouted from the other side of the battlefield. Purple energy gathered around her figure as she tried to teleport, but a wave of blue energy fell on her and destroyed that power.

“You deal with chaos, am I right?” Vesuvia asked as she teleported in front of Decumia.

“That’s nothing we can’t handle,” Queen stated as she reached Vesuvia’s side.

“Isn’t the other guy coming?” Decumia wondered. “Did he launch that attack just to piss me off?”

“Probably,” Vesuvia giggled.

“Don’t listen to this vixen,” Queen sighed. “And you, hurry up already.”

“You are so cute when you are angry,” Vesuvia joked before tapping on the armchair of her throne and creating an ethereal domain that engulfed Decumia.

“Do you really think that a prison can hold me?” Decumia asked as complete darkness filled her senses.

“That’s not a prison,” Vesuvia explained. “I’m humanity’s future, and you are part of it.”
