The circular defensive layer managed to endure the remaining power carried by Noah's attack, only some faint traces of his black smoke had reached the layer, but the woman's "Breath" quickly dispersed them.
Noah's attack wasn't even able to touch her.
Noah quickly stuffed a piece of one of the magical beasts stored inside his space-ring in his mouth, he needed to maintain his body in a healthy state since he knew that he would need to use the secret art many other times.
'She perfectly evaluated the power behind my attack and activated the suitable countermeasures… This will be hard.'
Noah thought as he stuffed another piece of a magical beast inside his mouth, his mind tried to find the best way to deal with such a powerful enemy.
Of course, the woman didn't wait for Noah to find a solution.
"Who are you? Which organization has managed to keep a heroic cultivator of the darkness element hidden?"
She asked as she raised her hands on the sky, she had understood Noah's aptitude, but it seemed that she didn't manage to link him to the Demon Prince of the Coral archipelago.
Noah was only thirty-seven after all, no one would think that someone that young had been able to cross the human ranks in that short period.
The barrage of flame spears appeared again, and an inscribed item in the fourth rank appeared in her hands.
The item seemed a simple piece of wood, but a blue flame burned on its tip, it resembled some sort of inscribed torch.
The torch began to affect the spears around her, blue flames covered the tips of the spears, which increased the dangerous aura that they radiated.
'Amazing.'
That was the only word that Noah could use to describe the scene.
He was fighting a heroic cultivator that had trained herself for decades, if not centuries, her spells, her weapons, her instincts had reached a harmony that Noah couldn't possibly achieve since had been forced to bend his fighting style to the techniques and spells in his possession.
The spears shot in his direction and he waited until all of them were about to converge in his position before performing the Shadow sprint martial art while activating the secret art.
Noah reached an insane speed when his martial art was matched with his secret art, the woman was able to find his figure only after his burst of speed ended.
Noah had neared her with his last sprint, he was wielding two black sabers at that time, he had decided to wield even his second rank 4 Demonic sword.
Two slashes shattered the air in front of him as he attacked the woman, she didn't have the time to be surprised by the appearance of a second rank 4 inscribed weapon in the hands of her opponent since she felt once again that a threatening attack was reaching for her.
She focused, a large amount of mental energy and "Breath" were injected inside her torch as she called upon the connection between her weapon and the flame spears in the distance.
Noah had dodged the spears with his martial art, but they hadn't exploded that time, only a few of them had broken when they converged in his position.
Yet, when the energies fueled the torch, the flames that made the hundreds of spears in the distance disappeared, only to reappear in the form of an expanding blue sphere that had the woman at its center.
Two fissures appeared on the expanding sphere made of blue flames, they pierced its surface and released a corrosive black smoke that threatened to fill its insides.
However, the blue sphere detonated at that moment, releasing a shockwave that expanded outward and that flung Noah away from the woman.
