"Elbas, it's time to surpass Divine Demon!" Noah shouted while using the workshop to create multiple rank 8 creatures that reinforced the cocoon.
"I have never been inferior!" King Elbas snorted, but his hands began to move at an unbelievable speed to create more inscriptions.
"What should I do?" Wilfred asked while nearing Noah.
The hybrid didn't know much about inscriptions. His power didn't even allow him to restrain his opponents. Wilfred was only a slightly sophisticated brute who carried a lot of energy.
"Keep his energy away from his body," Noah ordered. "We can't let Divine Demon give it a purpose. His body is too troublesome already."
Wilfred shot downward, and Noah's companions followed him. They would help the hybrid containing the world's energy while Noah and King Elbas took care of restraining Divine Demon.
"Don't hold back," Noah said while the Demonic Sword and the black roots appeared in his hands.
Dark matter flowed out of his figure and gave birth to a draconic armor. The sword-shaped roots and the Demonic Sword multiplied as the six-armed dragon took form.
Noah didn't dare to underestimate Divine Demon. The expert was in the liquid stage, and his law was extremely troublesome. He couldn't let him have a chance to gain the upper hand.
The cracks on the cocoon spread as its structure turned azure. The golden color vanished as the restraints broke and revealed Divine Demon's shining figure.
"Victories!" Divine Demon shouted, but Noah charged ahead before his opponent could do anything with his energy.
A singularity shot out of his weapons and crashed on Divine Demon. The attack dug through his flesh, but it didn't manage to pierce the mass of energy that had reinforced his muscles.
Noah didn't hold back, but Divine Demon had easily stopped his attack. The expert didn't even try to stop the slash, but the power amassed inside his body was enough to block Noah's energy.
"You'd better wake up," Noah whispered while reaching Divine Demon. "I don't want to kill you for real."
"Victories!" Divine Demon shouted while ignoring Noah's words.
The cultivator's hands shot to cut Noah's body, but the latter let them slam on his draconic figure. The knife-shaped nails pierced his draconic armor, but they only managed to leave white marks when they slammed on his skin.
"You can be stronger than this," Noah sighed before throwing a punch.
Roots covered his arm, so his fist destroyed a consistent chunk of Divine Demon's face when it hit him. The cultivator didn't even react to that damage. He continued to smile and reveal his hideous grin to his friends.
Divine Demon retracted his arms before thrusting them forward. Noah saw those sharp claws reaching for his abdomen, so he cracked his leg on the expert's stomach.
A shockwave spread through the sky. Divine Demon shot backward, and a deep hole appeared on his c.h.e.s.t. Noah's attack had been effective, but the cultivator didn't seem affected by the attack.
'He's not as fast as me,' Noah concluded in his mind after the exchange.
Divine Demon's physical prowess was incredible, but he lacked proper techniques. Even his law couldn't imitate the struggles faced by the hybrids when they created their martial arts.
Noah chased after Divine Demon. His sword slashed the air multiple times, and a storm of singularities shot out of his figure.
The attacks tried to converge on Divine Demon, but a tremor swept the area and forced them to detonate. The cultivator only had to endure the shockwaves released after the explosions, so his body remained almost untouched.
Divine Demon raised his claws and pointed them toward Noah. A massive amount of energy tried to converge toward his fingers, but Wilfred and the companions managed to stop it before it could reach his body.
Divine Demon still tried to launch a ranged attack, but Noah appeared in front of him before he could give a new purpose to his energy. The cultivator immediately deployed his evasive maneuver, but Noah released a flurry of punches before his opponent could disappear.
The attack resembled Wilfred's technique, but it lacked his theory. Noah had done nothing more than unleashing a series of punches toward his friends, and the expert suffered a lot during the exchange.
Noah was only a gaseous stage cultivator, but his body was already in the middle tier. The techniques that relied on his physical prowess could overcome any expert at the same level.
'I can suppress him as long as I'm faster!' Noah shouted inside his mind, but Divine Demon seemed able to understand that point.
Divine Demon's nails and canines retracted until they regained a human shape. Then, the expert tried to punch at Noah, but the latter dodged the attack with a simple movement of his head.
The shockwaves released during the attack made Noah feel dizzy due to the sheer power carried by the attack. Yet, Noah didn't stop his assault and continued to unleash his physical might on his opponent.
Noah punched Divine Demon's waist, c.h.e.s.t, and legs until he saw blood flowing out of those spots. Noah stopped whenever he saw the injuries growing too deep, but Divine Demon made him continue his assault.
Divine Demon slowly transformed into a zombie-like creature who did nothing more than replaying his previous techniques. Those abilities also carried his battle experience, so they could easily adapt to Noah's fighting style.
"Nuisance!" Divine Demon snorted as he joined his clawed hands above his c.h.e.s.t.
"I'm just me," Noah whispered, and his figure disappeared.
Noah used his movement techniques whenever he saw an attack that he couldn't dodge. After all, Divine Demon wasn't weak. His offensive was quite threatening, even for his incredible body.
Divine Demon never managed to touch Noah. He was too fast, and his offensive always managed to disrupt the cultivator's attacks. There was a limit to how much Divine Demon could do in that situation, and Noah made sure to restrain those powers.
Noah and King Elbas weren't the only ones who decided to help to suppress Divine Demon. Luke and Fergie soon joined the battle and tried to support the group with their power.
"Continue!" Noah shouted, and King Elbas worked even faster than before.
Meanwhile, Luke and Fergie unleashed their best techniques to force Divine Demon to waste power. The massive sun and the captivating wind affected his figure and made his body lose energy.
"Make him waste as much power as possible!" Noah continued to shout. "It doesn't matter how you do it. I want to see him in a human shape by the end of the next exchange!"
Luke and Fergie continued their assault, and Noah didn't fall behind on that field. Slashes, punches, kicks, and bites shot forward and suppressed Divine Demon whenever he tried to launch an attack.
King Elbas eventually finished improving his formation. New golden lines fell on the expert's figure and covered his body before enveloping him in a cocoon again.
The technique didn't stop there. It expanded until it covered the nearby area with a golden radiance that blocked the influence of the experts stuck inside it.
The azure energy that Wilfred and Noah's companions were fighting stopped converging toward Divine Demon. The world couldn't hear his call anymore. It could finally return to its usual endeavors.
