Birth of the Demonic Sword

Chapter 1734 - 1734. Teleport

Noah left his training area once he felt that his existence had gained as much as possible from the seclusion. He didn't know how long he had spent there, but his instincts told him that it was time to stir another mess.

Noah sent a message to all his companions through his inscribed notebook. Meanwhile, he set up a meeting with Luke and the experts who had remained in contact with the Outer Lands.

It didn't take much before a series of mental messages reached his mind. Noah felt glad to hear that most of his friends were ready to interrupt their seclusion and join him in the mission in the Outer Lands.

King Elbas, Wilfred, Divine Demon, Sword Saint, June, Robert, and Jordan quickly gathered in the appointed spot. Noah could only nod when he inspected them. Their auras didn't obtain evident new features, but his instincts went past appearances and told him that they had changed.

Noah didn't know if they had improved or had developed techniques capable of countering Heaven and Earth, but he didn't probe on that matter. His companions knew how risky it was to leave the mutated regions, but the choice had to remain in their hands.

"This should be everyone," Noah explained. "The others are still deep in their training or busy with other projects."

"I've seen the pig while flying here," Jordan exclaimed while wearing an ugly expression. "I think its underlings believe it to be the key to improve their species. We will find many little Foolery hanging around in a few years."

Noah and the others ignored Jordan. None of them dared to address the issue. The Foolery was still a magical beast at its core, so it was normal for the other specimens to see it as the perfect mating partner.

Luke eventually arrived and created a large map on the ground. He described the current layout of the Immortal Lands and the path to reach the allied cell of the secret organization. He even had coordinates for King Elbas.

"The leader of the faction liked the idea of a meeting," Luke revealed during his explanation. "He is quite restless about it."

"He is a battle maniac," June sighed while shaking her head.

"He is far from simple," Luke explained. "I think his stubbornness is part of his law, so convincing him to sell his information might turn out to be hard."

"It doesn't matter," Noah shrugged his shoulders. "Elbas, how long until the teleport is ready?"

King Elbas snorted before waving his hand. Golden lines suddenly came out of his space-ring and fell on the ground before fusing with the terrain.

"I only need to change a few lines," King Elbas announced. "Give me half a day."

Waiting half a day was nothing for beings in the eighth rank. Those hours would pass in the blink of an eye, but Luke decided to use that time to describe the cell of the secret organization.

"We are going to meet one of the main factions," Luke explained. "My sources say that its leader is behind the leak that has caused the problems in the human organizations. This cell is the biggest among those against Heaven and Earth, but I wouldn't consider it as a natural ally."

"He has leaked information once," King Elbas continued. "He will do it again if the conditions are right. I bet that many of our enemies would like to know about our return."

"We settle this matter in a single meeting then," Noah announced. "No point giving him a second leverage."

"What if he refuses to comply?" Luke asked. "I think I can bribe someone inside the cell. We might be able to check on the leader."

"Don't bother," Noah plainly replied. "We'll kill everyone if this meeting doesn't go as planned."

"How can we find our target without him?" Luke continued to ask as his confusion intensified.

"We keep killing every other organization on our path," Noah revealed a cold smirk. "Someone will talk. If they don't, we'll cover the entire Immortal Lands with chaotic laws. Something will eventually come up."

Luke didn't know what to answer, but the other experts seemed determined to follow that plan. He appeared to be the only one who still hoped to solve the matter peacefully.

King Elbas soon completed the teleport, and the experts instantly stepped inside the formation. Luke also followed the group, and golden light soon filled their vision.

The scenery had drastically changed after the light vanished. The Legion's domain had a constant blue halo above it, but the Outer Lands still preserved their natural azure color.

Light winds made of chaotic laws blew through the sky. Noah raised his hand, but the gales ignored him. He couldn't control them even with his influence as a Devil. They seemed to belong to a different realm.

Noah soon lifted his head. The sky didn't react to their exit from the protected areas of the Legion's domain. The world didn't seem interested in their presence there, and the event left everyone quite satisfied.

"This way," Luke eventually exclaimed, and the group followed him.

King Elbas handled the usual inspection of the surrounding areas. Wilfred and Jordan took care of the sidelines of the group since their senses could go further than the mental waves. Robert, Noah, and June flew right behind Luke, ready to attack if something went poorly.

Sword Saint and Divine Demon roamed freely among the group. Their character didn't make them eligible for specific roles, so the group felt satisfied as long as they didn't endanger the mission.

The group flew for a few days before reaching a long and deep ravine covered with strange crimson trees that had no leaves. The insides of the crack shone with azure light, but they didn't seem to contain much. Only a small river and a few magical plants stood at the bottom of the structure.

"I'll make sure to announce our arrival," Luke exclaimed, but King Elbas promptly interrupted him.

"I'll handle this," King Elbas said before condensing a golden sphere in his palm and throwing it toward the insides of the canyon.

The sphere shone and illuminated every corner of the structure with its golden light. Formations and glowing lines appeared whenever the golden flashes landed on the surfaces of the gorge. Defenses filled the insides, and even King Elbas would have to spend a while to overcome them.

"You have finally arrived!" A voice suddenly came out from the bottom of the ravine.

The defenses slowly went dark, and even the illusion that hid the buildings at the bottom of the canyon stopped working. Someone had purposely decided to reveal their cards.

A human figure slowly rose from the bottom of the valley. It belonged to a bald old man who had a long grey beard. His power also spread in the area, so Noah's team could study his cultivation level. The expert was a rank 8 existence in the solid stage. He was about to reach the peak of the journey.

"A bird told me that you wouldn't clear an area in the magical beasts' domain until I tell you where to find the connection with Heaven and Earth," The man announced. "I like your spirit. I bet our fight will be decent."
