Chapter 375: Chapter 235: Test? Torture? Devastation? _2
However, although Noah no longer held back and utilized his utmost comprehension of combat, this battle was still extremely difficult for him, and victory was not easily attainable.
The dual sword Great Angel, even if just an incarnation, did not possess the sturdiness of the Ancestral Dragon Body, but the power he could wield and his understanding of battle completely surpassed Noah.
Therefore, Noah grew increasingly alarmed as the fight went on. It wasn’t just that he was surpassed in strength and realm, but the issue lay in the aspect of combat experience, where Noah indeed lacked accumulation compared to the Angel.
In a daze, Noah almost felt as if he was sparring with his foster father, Casius, once again in his youth, as this angel’s incarnation definitely carried part of the combat memory from that Blazing Sky Old Deng; otherwise, it would have been impossible to suppress him in this way.
"What a relentless assault!"
After countless clashes, Noah separated from the dual sword Great Angel, with drops of blood sprinkling down from his dragon body, which seemed as if it had been flayed multiple times.
At this moment, Noah’s appearance was extremely miserable. Even those broad and heavy magnificent dragon wings of his had been pierced in several places, and there were hardly any intact scales to be found from the top to the bottom of his dragon body.
Of course, the most excessive was a sword scar that fell on his abdomen, extending between his legs, but fortunately, Noah managed to block half of that sword light, preventing it from completely landing.
If not, well, it could still grow back. At the moment, all of Noah’s wounds were in the process of hyper-speed healing.
In fact, the dual sword Great Angel opposite him was also recovering. Although the opponent was not a flesh-and-blood body and just an incarnation, having caused such considerable harm to Noah, he was also resilient enough to smash nearly half of his body, and while his recovery power hadn’t decreased, he needed more time to regain his form.
Without a doubt, this was an exceedingly hard-fought battle. Since his ascension from slumber, Noah had not encountered such a sensation in a long time; it was as if he was facing his foster father from back in the day.
However, Noah, having had similar experiences, gradually retrieved the feeling from those years and was entering into the state, wherein his understanding of combat skills was once again rapidly advancing.
One must admit, this was a truly excellent opponent. In him, Noah found and improved the shortcomings of his own distilled Dragon Battle Skills from his youth, discovering areas where enhancements could be made.
Ignoring the pain brought by those two swords which had skinned him countless times, purely from a combat perspective, this was indeed a tremendous opportunity.
Beings in the world who could impose such pressure on Noah, allowing him growth, were becoming fewer and fewer. Undoubtedly, this old father-in-law was one of them; his strikes were vicious, but he didn’t intend to kill Noah.
In contrast to the first bout where Noah easily crushed a victory, in the second bout, Noah and the dual sword angel were at an impasse for a long time. Noah, relying on the robust vitality of his Ancestral Dragon, held on until his combat techniques underwent further transformation.
Crack~
In the end, Noah snapped the angel’s dual swords, then ripped off his wings, and using his dragon claw, smashed his head, shredding this second incarnation of Blazing Sky Old Deng.
Yet, there was still a heavy silence. Facing his second victory, Blazing Sky Old Deng made no response, except for yet another light descending. This beam bore a crimson hue, and under Noah’s calm gaze, the flaming crimson wings unfolded before him.
Six-winged Seraph
Legend
This time, the angel only held a single sword, but the pressure it brought felt as though mountains and seas were crashing down on Noah, causing even his breath to halt.
"This should be the final round."
Noah understood why Blazing Sky Old Deng was increasing the pressure and intensity on him.
However, Blazing Sky Old Deng still maintained some bottom lines. Even though he found him distasteful, it was a gradual progression, not truly intending to beat him to death. This was both seeking trouble for him and, at the same time, a test.
Judging by the number of wings behind the angel, this six-winged Seraph should mark the final challenge.
Consequently, black flames ignited upon Noah, with one pitch-black Dragon Scale after another emerging from his body, encasing him entirely, transforming into a set of black dragon-shaped Armor.
Flame Brilliance Form
Abandon everything, solely for enhancing melee combat, the Frenzy Battle Form.
Roar—
The battle commenced once more, yet from the initial clash with the six-winged Seraph, Noah suffered severe injuries, his wings being severed. The golden-hued Dragon Blood surged from Noah’s body, forming a long river, pouring down the Light Tunnel.
"?"
Noah retrieved his dragon wing, reattached it, and looked at the six-winged Seraph coming at him once more, having already made a judgment in his heart.
The six-winged Seraph before him was likely Blazing Sky Old Deng in his youth; in other words, Noah was battling the young Old Deng.
There was no way to fight this; how could he fight? The opponent had no intention of letting him win at all!
Wasn’t this clearly bullying a dragon?
If he had the ability to suppress to the same realm, Noah would show him the true majesty of the Ancestral Dragon.
While Noah felt indignant towards Blazing Sky Old Deng in his heart, outwardly, he said not a word, choosing instead to bite his teeth and confront the six-winged Seraph, even though every strike from this blazing angel could inflict severe wounds, and the blade in his hand made his dragon scales seem as thin as paper, Noah endured and even attempted to counterattack, seeking opportunities for victory.
Unyielding in the face of certain defeat, fighting to the death without retreat, even though there was no room for retreat given here in the first place, Noah didn’t voice complaints, much less beg for mercy.
Noah was not only revisiting his childhood now but was also experiencing pressure far beyond what his foster father, Casius, had imposed back then. In his heart, a sense of despair began to spawn.
How long would this battle last? At what point would it reach an end?
During practice bouts with his foster father, Noah knew that no matter how tough or heavy-handed he was, his foster father would still show mercy and not harm his life.
But the current foe was different. Having touched his daughter, gotten her pregnant out of wedlock, as a father, to be honest, if the other party wanted to chop him to death, Noah wouldn’t find it surprising.
Such thoughts seemed completely normal. Noah even felt that Blazing Sky Old Deng probably restrained himself somewhat out of consideration for each other’s identities.
But Noah did not know to what extent this restraint would go for Blazing Sky Old Deng, leaving him just enough life to survive?
Given the resilience of the Ancestral Dragon’s vitality, there were plenty of means he could deploy.
Time passed, though Noah lost all concept of time passing, all he saw in this Light Tunnel was the emergence of a Dragon Blood Lake, filled with scales and flesh cleaved from him by the six-winged Seraph.
This lake alone was expansive enough to fill several mountains.
Noah himself was astonished to behold this—it was his blood flowing out? How could there be so much? Those parts could probably piece together five or six Ancestral Dragons!
"Your bloodline stems from the most ancient Platinum Dragon God, Bahamut, Your Majesty."
Once again, as a slashing attack came toward him, Noah’s body reacted before his mind, and just when Noah’s dragon tail, like a spear, pierced through the angel’s silhouette, Noah heard the first words spoken by Blazing Sky Divine Servant since his entry into the tunnel.
"Hmm?"
Noah stared in a daze, then watched as the six-winged Seraph before him slowly faded and finally dissipated into nothingness,
"Is it over?"
"I want to know, how do you possess the Ancestral Bloodline? That most ancient Dragon God, Your Majesty, no longer exists, having fallen into an Eternal slumber; you couldn’t have received His blessing."
"It is certainly through my own effort and struggle."
Hearing a question so familiar, Noah’s resolve remained unwavering, providing the same answer.
"The resilience of your will is beyond my expectation. You are not afraid of death and also greatly relish this kind of battle on the verge of your limits."
Blocking Noah from descending through the void, the Blazing Sky Divine Servant shot Noah a gaze of a different kind for the first time,
"My daughter’s choice isn’t too shabby after all."
