"True Spirit Body."
"!!!" The ancient demons noticed the powerful wave of spiritual energy, alarming them.
The wave of spiritual energy carried an intense heat as the black flame erupted, then dispersed in all directions. Everything it passed ended up getting burned and reduced to ashes. Even the soil turned dry in a split second.
Within that flame was Noel. His appearance was different from before.
Instead of a pair of black wings, there was a ring made of black flame on Noel's back. Eight black swords were attached to that ring, divided into two as though they were a pair of wings.
Noel's pupils had a cross sword mark. Despite the overbearing flame, the transformation didn't give as much impact as Noel's previously True Spirit Body did.
However, it couldn't be any different for Noel. He actually felt the surge of strength he had never felt before.
"This is... amazing." Noel couldn't help but smile.
[There are a lot of things we can try. Although you don't have a pair of wings anymore, the ring will carry you into the air when you pour your spiritual energy, so you don't have to worry about your flying ability. It's still there.]
"I'm not worried about that." Noel looked at the two ancient demons. The first one was a rat and the second one was a dog. Both of them were perfect to be his experimental subject. "Let's test the power, shall we?"
[Yes. I will be guiding you through the new power.]
Sensing his killing intent had been locked on them, the two ancient demons didn't shift from their original directions. They ignored Rui. In fact, they even sent some more demons just to occupy them until they killed Noel.
The dog was the first one to make a move. It opened its mouth, gathering its spiritual energy in his throat before shooting a powerful beam.
Noel only raised his hand as though he was trying to block the beam with only a single hand.
"Be careful!" Rui shouted, warning him.
Boom!
The beam hit Noel and caused a huge explosion.
However, a black flame appeared from within the explosion and actually burned the explosion itself.
"What?!" Rui looked shocked.
Noel snapped his fingers. He noticed that a lot of demons were still coming together with the ancient demons, so he had to kill some of them.
"This one is too powerful. We need those crystals. Can't be too wasteful." Noel smiled wryly.
The mouse took advantage of this opportunity to reach Noel's position.
He waved his claws, trying to overpower Noel with his weight.
[Try Divine Slash.]
Noel's expression turned solemn. The target was obviously the mouse's claws.
Hence, he gathered his spiritual energy on the tip of his sword and slashed upward toward the claw.
Divine Slash.
To his surprise, the Divine Slash actually transformed. There seemed to be a blinding light flashing for a split second, rising to the sky.
All of a sudden, the flame erupted from that blinding light, cutting the mouse's entire left paw instead of nails.
"!!!" The mouse looked shocked. Its hand was already shocking, but what was even more shocking was the fact that Noel's power traveled to the sky.
If one took a look at the sky, they would see the cloud was actually burned by the black flame.
Seeing the power of the Divine Slash, Noel couldn't help but turn to the mouse, knowing that he might be able to kill this in a single slash.
When Noel unleashed another Divine Slash, but this time straight to the mouse's body, the latter actually leaped into the air, fearing for its life.

As a result, the demons behind him were sliced. No, it was more like everything behind him in a fan-shaped area within a 200-meter radius was sliced into two. In addition, the flame actually traveled much farther, killing a lot of demons in the process.
The mouse landed on the ground, causing a huge tremor. However, it immediately leaped back, trying to gain some distance before Noel attacked.
The dog also chose to be careful after realizing what would happen to him if he charged in blindly.
Rui dropped her jaw. "I can finally understand where his confidence comes from. If it's like this, no matter what I do, those two ancient demons won't bother me. In that case..."
Rui took a deep breath. It was time for her to fulfill her role.
