Eleven oâclock.
A figure broke through the air, robes fluttering, and landed on top of the Hall of Light.
"Heâs here."
"The Sect Master of Wind Sword Sect, Supreme Cloud."
Suppressed low roars came from the nearby palaces.
Supreme Cloud wore a white robe like snow, his face serene. When Noahâs gaze fell upon him, he seemed to see a divine sword, the Firmament Sword, with its edge half-revealed.
Noahâs expression was solemn.
The fact that he could have this illusion indicated that Supreme Cloudâs swordsmanship had reached an incredible realm, and his mental attributes were definitely not low.
A beam of light shot out from the Eye of Investigation, landing on Supreme Cloud.
[Supreme Cloud]
[Tier: Tier 2]
[Attributes:???]
[Skills:???]
"Indeed, heâs Tier 2."
Noah sighed inwardly. The mere Excellent-grade Eye of Investigation lost most of its effectiveness before a Tier 2 expert. Apart from the name and tier, all other information was marked with question marks.
As if sensing the investigation from the Eye of Investigation, Supreme Cloud glanced in Noahâs direction, but quickly withdrew his gaze. His eyes swept across the entire scene, and he shouted:
"Darius, come out."
"Hahaha."
Accompanied by wild laughter, a figure rapidly broke through the air, creating astonishing wind howls, and landed opposite Supreme Cloud.
It was precisely the Leader of the Asura Demonic Sect, Darius Thorne.
Darius Thorne wore a black close-fitting outfit, his face rugged, and his entire body exuded an air of arrogance.
Like Supreme Cloud, when Noah saw him, he seemed to see a domineering long saber standing against the sky.
This was undoubtedly an expert of the same level as Supreme Cloud, and compared to Supreme Cloudâs restraint, he was more arrogant and overbearing.
One could only say, he truly lived up to his reputation as the overlord of the underworld.
"Since youâve arrived, letâs fight," Supreme Cloud said indifferently.
"Wait."
Just as everyone thought this world-shaking battle was about to erupt, Darius grinned: "Before you and I have our decisive battle, let me deal with a small pest."
Having said that, he didnât wait for Supreme Cloudâs reply. His gaze swept across the surroundings: "That guy called Asura Fist, get out here."
On the roof of the palace, Noah couldnât help but be stunned.
He was still thinking about how he should intervene in the battlefield, but unexpectedly, before he did anything, he was actively sought out by one of the protagonists, the Blade Saint.
Could it be that the matter of him assassinating the two top-tier experts from the underworld had been exposed?
As a giant of the underworld, it was reasonable for Darius to come seeking him out because of this.
While his thoughts raced, Noahâs response was not slow: "I am."
Darius âs gaze immediately turned and locked onto Noah. He grinned, his eyes filled with cruelty: "I am the Master of the Asura Demonic Sect. You, a nobody who popped out of nowhere, what standing do you have to dare to use the name Asura?"
"Die for me."
The long saber on his back suddenly appeared in his hand, and he slashed it towards Noah from a distance.
Only a dazzling saber light, emanating an endless aura of ferocity, flew out from the long saber, crossing the distance between the two at an incredible speed, and slashed towards Noahâs face.
Supreme Cloudâs eyebrows slightly raised.
He had the opportunity to block Dariusâs attack.
But Noah was both righteous and evil, his stance unclear, so he lost the desire to rescue him.
"He is Asura Fist? He has caused quite a stir in the Central Province area recently. Unfortunately, he has provoked Darius âs taboo."
"Haha, so what if heâs a top-tier expert? Before Darius , isnât he as fragile as a baby?"
"What a pity for a generationâs prodigy to fall here, hehe."
The onlookers all gloated, no one believing that Noah could escape from this attack.
After unleashing this world-shaking blow, Darius withdrew his gaze and no longer paid attention to Noah. In his eyes, Noah was already a dead man.
"Clang."
A sharp roar of colliding weapons echoed throughout the entire area.
"So thatâs why you attacked me," Noahâs calm voice sounded.
Darius âs pupils constricted slightly, and he suddenly turned his head, only to see Noah standing perfectly fine on the distant palace. In his hand, a surprisingly long greatsword had appeared, which had shattered Darius âs saber light with a single strike.
"Good, good, good. I didnât expect that I, Darius, would misjudge the situation," a captivating light shot out from Dariusâs eyes.
"Old man, itâs impolite not to return a favor. Take a sword from me too."
Thunder Shadow Step was activated. Noah, like a bolt of lightning, instantly crossed the distance between the two. The greatsword in his hands, carrying a terrifying momentum, slashed towards Darius.
"Good timing."
Darius showed no fear. Just as he was about to swing his saber to meet this strike.
A smile appeared on Noahâs lips, and he stomped his right foot fiercely.
War Stomp.
"Boom~"
The vast Hall of Light seemed to have been forcibly demolished. The entire building collapsed with a roar, dust rising everywhere. Noah and Darius fell into the ruins.
Supreme Cloud, who had been observing with cold eyes from the side, was not spared and fell along with them.
How formidable was Darius? The duration of the stun from War Stomp on him was less than half a second.
However, this brief time was enough for Noah to unleash several consecutive sword strikes, all landing on Dariusâs body.
The sword edge didnât feel like it was piercing flesh and blood at all. Noahâs strikes felt as if they were hacking at thick cowhide, not injuring Darius in the slightest. However, the immense force still sent the caught-off-guard Darius flying.
"What happened?"
"The Blade Saint, was actually sent flying?"
The onlookers all showed expressions of disbelief. The Blade Saint, who was invincible in their minds, was actually sent flying?
And the one who did it was Asura Fist, whom they thought couldnât withstand a single blow from Darius?
Wait.
Why did Asura Fist use a greatsword...?
Ignoring the bewildered onlookers, after sending Darius flying, Noah, who had activated Thunder Shadow Step, followed like a shadow. Darius, who had just recovered from the stun, was about to retaliate when he heard a deafening roar. The surrounding palace buildings collapsed with a crash, and he was once again plunged into a stun.
"No..."
