Chapter 1716 - 1716. Danger level

Sword Saint, Noah, and Robert exchanged a glance before nodding toward each other.

Noah was restraining Divine Demon. His hand was on the expert's throat while the entirety of the dark-blue energy fell on his body. His skin deflected that power easily, but he still threw his friend toward Wilfred.

"Suppress him for a few seconds," Noah ordered. "We'll open a path."

Wilfred's eyes widened when he saw the dark-blue comet flying toward him, but he quickly deployed a storm of punches to handle the expert. King Elbas joined him, and Fergie led some of the weaker experts near the duo to help.

Noah, Sword Saint, and Robert silently neared the crackling wall. Their auras exploded as they prepared themselves to unleash their best attacks.

Sword Saint generated his blade-shaped energy, Robert created a massive toxic mass, and Noah placed his weapons on his forehead. The light and the crackling figures inside it neared the army while the trio didn't take care of them, and the experts did their best to replace their strongest assets.

Noah opened the flask with his mental energy before throwing it inside the crackling wall. The trio didn't know what to expect, but King Elbas' item gave a signal that they couldn't ignore.

A faint golden light spread inside the crackling wall and expanded until it covered the entire structure. King Elbas' liquid seemed able to fuse with the lightning bolts and merge with their power. It was a virus meant to handle Heaven Tribulations.

The raging energy in the lightning bolts began to lose part of its violence. The attacks slowed down. They almost froze among the area as they stopped flying through the structure.

Noah, Sword Saint, and Robert launched their attacks as soon as the first lightning bolt stopped flying completely. Waves of sharp energy, and straight singularity, and a toxic mass fell on the wall and destroyed countless sparks.

The lightning bolts didn't even try to oppose the attacks. King Elbas' liquid had made them harmless. Their energy didn't defend at all. The trio's offensive could pierce the wall and spread its destructiveness without causing consequences on the rest of the battlefield.

A tunnel quickly opened on the wall, and Noah roared to give the signal to his troops. A few injuries had appeared on Wilfred's figure during those short seconds, but he didn't hesitate to dive through the dark-blue energy, grab Divine Demon, and throw him inside the passage.

Noah, Sword Saint, and Robert followed the dark-blue comet, and the rest of the army went after them. The group had suffered severe losses while the trio was busy dealing with the wall, but no one dared to spend time crying over the dead.

The army traveled across the tunnel that pierced the wall from side to side. The lightning bolts around them slowly regained their power, but the group reached the end of the passage before they could resume showing their violence.

'We should be almost outside, right?' Noah hoped in his mind, but a familiar voice soon reached his ears.

"Thank you for surviving the wall," Earth's androgynous voice spread from the light. "You have surpassed our wildest expectations."

"How does it feel to be prisoners of your own fairness?" Noah asked as a cold laugh escaped his mouth.

Noah didn't let that environment trick him. Heaven and Earth had the power to send rank 9 cultivators, but their trap only featured dangers in the upper tier.

"I bet that you couldn't even think about sending your best troops in a trap made only for us," Noah laughed. "You are so powerless against existences that defy your understanding."

The army remained silent, but some worried glance fell on Noah anyway. He was taunting the rulers of the world. His underlings couldn't help but feel that he was going too far.

"You are right," Earth replied after remaining silent for a few seconds. "We established the rules, so we must be the first to follow them. You also got the nature of our existence right. We can't understand you. That's why we need to absorb your law."

"How would you even do it?" Noah continued to laugh while the army pierced through the whiteness. "Your absorption is flawed. The laws that you need keep opposing you. Getting broken existences can only worsen your being."

Noah was trying to get information out of Heaven and Earth. He didn't need to talk, but he wouldn't find a better chance to learn something about the rulers anytime soon.

"Right again," Earth replied, "But you have forgotten something. Your group has just taken care of a hindrance at the peak of the upper tier in instants. We can finally consider you a rank 9 threat."

Noah's eyes widened at those words, but he couldn't stop the next event. The crackling figures hidden inside the whiteness shattered and sent their sparks toward a distant point on the army's path.

The entire group saw the sparks gathering and giving birth to a massive humanoid figure. A giant appeared among the whiteness, and a suffocating aura suddenly spread through the environment.

Noah couldn't stop because Divine Demon wasn't in a mental condition to mind external events, but his senses still started ignoring everything but the giant. The new threat was a rank 9 creature. It was at the bottom of the lower tier, but it was still something that his group couldn't possibly handle.

'The wall was a decoy,' Noah concluded in his mind. 'Heaven and Earth have used it to bring our danger level in the ninth rank.'

Everything became clear in Noah's mind. The trap wasn't impossible because Heaven and Earth wanted the army to overcome it. That would have given them the chance to deploy stronger creatures, which involved the ninth rank.

Noah didn't bother to stop Divine Demon. The expert continued to fly forward, which meant that the exit from that place was behind the rank 9 crackling figure. The army had to fight it. There was no other way out of that situation.

"In your experience," Noah whispered while flying next to Sword Saint and Robert, "Can we defeat something like that?"

"Do you want the theory?" Robert asked.

"The ninth rank is the peak," Sword Saint explained. "We shouldn't even be able to see it."

"But we are here," Noah replied. "Heaven and Earth wouldn't be able to deploy unless we had a chance to win."

"Let's attack and see how it goes," Robert sighed. "We should also try to make our offensive match the crazy one."

Sword Saint and Noah limited themselves to nod before accelerating and reaching Divine Demon. The latter didn't even notice them, but the energy around him began to rotate to deal with the massive crackling figure in the distance.

Noah, Sword Saint, and Robert did the same. They prepared their best attacks again, and their hands flashed when Divine Demon's higher energy shot forward.

A sharp singularity, a rotating toxic mass, a dark-blue drill, and a wave of sharpness flew toward the giant and engulfed it with their power. The group had launched their strongest offensive, and an explosion followed the impact with the lightning bolts.

The whiteness devoured the smoke acc.u.mulated in the environment and revealed the effects of the powerful offensive. Worry inevitably appeared in the group's minds when they saw that the giant didn't carry the slightest injury.
