Noah and the others didn't know what to do. They had just deployed some of their best techniques, but the rank 9 giant didn't even budge.

The effectiveness of Noah and Robert's laws didn't matter in that situation. They lacked sheer power. Their existence couldn't touch a creature in the ninth rank.

Divine Demon was still charging forward, and Noah didn't know how to handle that situation. He didn't have the time to care about that expert with such a strong enemy on his path.

The rest of the army was in a similar situation. They had seen some of the best attacks in the eighth rank doing nothing to a creature that had just stepped in the lower tier of the ninth rank. The difference between the quality of power was immense, and desperation inevitably spread with that understanding.

"Do you have something in mind?" Robert asked while stopping flying forward.

Noah and Sword Saint imitated him. They had to decide something before Divine Demon clashed with the crackling figure.

"I can try with better attacks," Sword Saint revealed, "But I won't be able to kill it. The ninth rank goes beyond my power."

"I've done my best in the last attack," Noah explained. "Nothing would work unless we go beyond our previous offensive."

Noah's words forced the trio to fall silent and search inside their minds. A proper plan failed to appear. Their entire experience couldn't help them against a rank 9 creature.

"We can try that thing," Sword Saint eventually proposed. "This battle isn't a matter of sheer power. We have to increase the quality of our attacks to overcome the challenge."

"I can't perform it," Noah announced. "I'm not holding back now. I've thrown my best attack before."

"You don't have to do it on your own," Sword Saint snorted. "Let's work together. Let's create that attack by fusing our power."

"Is that even possible?" Noah asked.

"Our sharpness shares identical features," Sword Saint explained. "You only need to accumulate enough power."

Violent thoughts filled Noah's mind while he went over that offer. The idea behind the plan wasn't bad, but it still failed to express reasonable ideas.

The crackling figure didn't stay still. It noticed the various experts trying to pierce its blockade and decided to attack.

The giant raised its massive hand before making it fall. The gesture generated storms that fused with Heaven and Earth's laws and grew. Noah and the others watched as a wave of power flew in their direction.

The dark world expanded and tried to cover the entire army. However, the shockwaves destroyed the dark matter and managed to reach his group.

Painful cries filled the area and reached Noah's ears. Many experts died during the attack, but he didn't have the time to mind his allies.

The shockwaves pierced his fiendish armor and destroyed the corrosive roots. It clashed directly with his body and flung him away. Noah had to spend time regaining control over his movements, but his flesh endured the power carried by the impact.

Some pieces of his skin opened, but the attack didn't manage to shatter his existence. Other rank 8 experts would feel glad about that scene, but he didn't feel satisfied with the achievement.

That little amount of power couldn't hurt him properly. Still, it showed the difference between their energy. Noah had to get out of that situation, and Sword Saint's plan inevitably became more reasonable in his mind.

"How should we even proceed?" Noah asked after he returned near Sword Saint and Robert.

"Gather energy as usual," Sword Saint explained. "I'll take care of cutting it and giving it a direction."

"We need someone to take care of the army," Noah announced.

"I can do that," Robert stepped into the conversation. "Leave everything to me while you deal with this punishment."

Noah and Sword Saint nodded after exchanging a glance. They knew that Robert wasn't enough to handle the entirety of the whiteness, but he had to do in the current situation.

Robert shot backward and instantly became a core part of the army. He began to rule over weaker troops and handle their offensive. They had a lot to learn from the expert, and they didn't dare to contradict him either.

Noah and Sword Saint exchanged another meaningful glance before shooting forward and reaching Divine Demon in an instant. Their figures even went past the expert as their thoughts aligned.

Something was off with the giant crackling figure. It clearly was in the ninth rank, but the best experts had easily handled its attack. The blow was nothing more than an expression of sheer power, but it was strange for Heaven and Earth to hold back.

'This creature must have weaknesses,' Noah thought. 'We should all be dead, but we have barely suffered injuries. I bet Heaven and Earth had to deploy their weaker defense in the ninth rank.'

That understanding led Noah toward a new approach. He would have normally escaped in that situation, but the evident weaknesses of his opponent gave him a chance to win.

Noah and Sword Saint flew until they floated right in front of the giant. Divine Demon had continued to follow them even if injuries filled his body, but the duo planned to put an end to that matter before his arrival.

Noah started to amass energy. His greed exploded and spread through the environment, dragging every form of energy toward him. Part of his dark matter, mental energy, and darkness flowed out of his figure to fuse with that power, and he tried his best to remain in control of the attack.

The mass of energy soon grew unstable, but Noah poured even more power at that point. He had to obtain a decent amount of density. The project wouldn't be able to produce the intended effects otherwise.

The mass of energy slowly transformed as Noah's ambition filled every corner of that structure. It condensed and gave birth to a fiery star before continuing to evolve.

The star soon transformed into a black hole before evolving into an almost invisible form of energy. Sword Saint watched the process carefully, and he could only remain speechless at the sheer amount of power contained in a single shape.

The black hole grew unstable, but Noah kept adding energy to its form. Its dark color eventually vanished, and the technique turned into an invisible mass of energy. The transformation gave the experts more time, but the sphere wanted to explode.

"That should be fine!" Sword Saint exclaimed. "Prepare to rotate it toward our target!"

Sword Saint raised his sword-shaped energy and pointed it toward his blades. Instead, Noah covered his figure with dark matter to prepare for the imminent explosion.

The expert pointed his sword toward the unstable mass of energy and pierced it with his blade. However, the opening didn't appear.

"Be stronger," Noah shouted. "I can't contain it any longer."

"Let's attack together!" Sword Saint replied. "Let's fuse our blades into a single slash!"

Noah did his best to empower the sphere before pointing his swords toward the mass of energy. The duo tried to pierce the sphere by deploying their best slashes, and they succeeded in opening a path.

Author's notes: My right arm is still sore. I've endured the past two days, but it doesn't want to move as usual now. I'll write the s after sleeping, and I might not publish Chaos' Heir at all to take care of Demonic Sword. Mind you. This isn't a break. It's just a delay.
