Chapter 2359. Fall

Noah had long since stopped thinking. Thoughts barely flowed inside his mind. He was completely unaware of all the changes that had happened in the higher plane. He didn't even know how long had passed since the beginning of the assault.

However, the tremor that ran through the sky worked like a switch that reactivated every function in Noah's existence. He suddenly became aware of the new state of the higher plane, and he even sensed all the new assets who had joined the assault.

The rest of the army experienced similar emotions. The offensive had continued for so long that most experts had shut their minds to maximize their power output. Yet, the tremor awakened all of them.

The thudding noise spread through the higher plane and forced the assault to a stop. The sky had finally moved. The world had created something that could affect a rank 10 material, and the event naturally gave birth to a wave of shock that took control of every expert.

Still, countless destructive thoughts filled Noah's mind and made him aware of the next necessary step. The army couldn't stop now. He couldn't give the sky any time to breathe, so a deafening roar promptly left his mouth.

The volume of the roar almost shocked Noah. He didn't expect it to be so loud, but the new space-time array transformed it and made it safe to hear even for the weaker creatures in the army.

The roar carried different meanings. Some saw it as a simple order. Others experienced a complete awakening of their powers under its might. The event was even more shocking for the beings that had never heard Noah's voice. They felt as if their very cores had finally found their true home.

Nevertheless, no matter what effects the roar had, every member of the army resumed the assault with a newfound rhythm. The offensive found instinctive coordination under Noah's order, and that wasn't the end of it.

The assault had been almost robotic until now. Every expert in the army simply launched their best techniques before gathering power and launching more attacks. No real emotion filled those abilities. Only Noah's ambition found its place there since it slowly enhanced everything.

However, that changed after Noah roared. Pure and selfless fury seeped into the worldwide offensive, and countless cries even started to resound among the entire army.

"More!" Noah couldn't help but roar again.

Noah's destruction fused with his anger and the other violent aspects of his world before seeping into his voice. The feelings conveyed by the roar became an infective influence that took over his companions and pushed them toward higher forms of power.

A few exchanges had to start and end before a second tremor ran through the sky. That miraculous event happened again, but no one stopped at that time. Noah only roared again to imbue the army with more fury.

Caesar was speechless, but his confidence still held strong. Noah had made the entire higher plane surpass his expectations, but a mere tremor didn't mean anything, especially now that the army couldn't grow more numerous.

Yet, the lack of natural resources didn't stop the army from growing stronger. The entire world helped Noah spread his ambition and fury, intensifying their effects and giving birth to natural power-ups.

The process continued until every exchange gave birth to new power-ups. The army improved after each attack, and the trembling sky soon became a common sight.

"Amazing," Marcella couldn't help but comment once the sky forgot about its motionless version, but the surprises had just begun.

A shattering noise eventually resounded through the higher plane. The assault didn't stop to inspect the event, but Noah saw it clearly. A tiny dent had appeared in an area of the sky above him.

Another roar left Noah's mouth. His cry explained the event to the whole army, which added fury to the overall assault. Soon, more dents appeared on the sky, and a proper crack formed at some point.

"This can't be real," Caesar muttered as his smile finally vanished. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ꜰʀᴇᴇ ᴡᴇʙ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. ᴄᴏᴍ ᴏɴʟʏ.

Of course, the offensive was far outside Caesar's grasp. He couldn't affect it at all. He could only watch as more and more cracks appeared on something supposed to become the best type of rank 10 existence in the universe.

Losses inevitably happened during the offensive. Noah's influence was empowering everyone, but his power was no replacement for the natural resources.

Many creatures in the human ranks attacked until their whole bodies dissolved into clouds that disappeared into the higher plane. The beings in the heroic ranks didn't escape that fate, and the same went for the divine experts.

Noah's core team wasn't an exception. Wilfred had suffered significant injuries during the fight against Heaven and Earth, and the worldwide assault didn't give him any chance to heal. Still, he never stopped attacking, and he even managed to launch his best technique yet while his body and world crumbled into dust.

Vesuvia's world had never been battle-oriented, and the scenery in her vision already depicted the essence of her existence. She launched a few more attacks, but she eventually wore a smile and let herself disappear.

Similar scenes happened everywhere in the army. Experts and creatures of various levels died and disappeared while putting everything they had into some last attacks.

Those deaths didn't weaken the overall assault. Noah's ambition was always there to bring more power to each attack, so the shattering of the destruction of the sky continued.

The first deep fissures appeared, and they expanded while experts continued to sacrifice themselves for that higher goal. The whole world had achieved inhumane selflessness, and Caesar could only remain speechless in front of that scene.

Eventually, a hole that connected the insides of the higher plane to the universe formed, but the army didn't find any satisfaction in that achievement. The worldwide assault continued, and more of those channels formed inside the sky.

Unstable properties took over the entire white layer. Its structural stability vanished, leaving only its sheer power in charge of keeping it together.

Still, the army overcame that issue too, and giant holes soon opened inside the sky. The path toward the universe was finally in sight, but the assault didn't stop. Noah wouldn't let it end there.

Massive cracks expanded from the deep holes and connected to each other to create proper canyons. The smooth state of the sky became a distant memory, and everything ended when the first shard finally fell.

Noah halted his offensive, and the rest of the army instinctively imitated him. A tiny shard left the sky and fell toward the center of the higher plane, but more followed. In the end, the entire structure fell apart and released massive boulders.

Many experts and creatures in the army lacked the power to avoid the boulders. Those beings ended up squashed under their weight, and the same happened to the new space-time array.

The void took over the higher plane as the entire sky fell to converge at its center. The white layer finally abandoned the position it had occupied for many eras and transformed into lifeless lands that gave birth to a new landmass.

Many boulders didn't have the chance to fuse into a single plane and vanished into the void, but a new home formed anyway. The army saw the birth of a new landmass free from Heaven and Earth's oppressive influence.

The new landmass didn't have plants or lifeforms, but it stood in the middle of the universe without cages. It was a home that could thrive without worrying about the threatening sky standing above it.

The scene generated tears among the army, but Noah and the major experts didn't have time for that. Their attention was on an ethereal crystal that had remained behind while the rest of the sky had fallen. All of them could sense pure rank 10 energy coming out of the item, and cold smiles inevitably appeared on their faces.
