Chapter 2218 - 2218. Reinforcements

The landma.s.s' forces continued to overwhelm their opponents, and the dragons managed to stand out even in that chaotic environment. Heaven and Earth's a.s.sets couldn't help but lose ground as creatures born with the sole purpose of destroying them unleashed everything they had.

Roars, battle cries, orders, and far more filled the higher plane, but the soundwaves caused by the impacts of the various spells overwhelmed all of that. Rumbling noises, explosions, and so on fused to create the greatest chaos that the world had ever witnessed.

Hoping to find order among that mess was delusional. Even the rest of Noah's forces soon abandoned their idea of finding suitable targets and started slaughtering anyone nearby. Ending in the wrong spot at a bad time meant death, and Heaven and Earth's a.s.sets weren't used to facing those stakes.

The improved cultivators had spent a long part of their lives in the safety of the sky. Noah's group had reminded most of them that death could arrive even under the protection of the rulers, but only a few of them managed to awaken their survival instincts before the final battle.

With the two upper tier dragons suppressing Heaven and Earth's resurrecting abilities, most improved cultivators found themselves lost and scared. Those a.s.sets weren't used to putting their lives on the line, and the landma.s.s' forces didn't give them the time to recall how to do that.

The landma.s.s' forces could add another advantage to their side now that the dragons had stepped in. They weren't only superiors to the opponents in terms of worlds. They had also never forgotten how to deal with life and death situations.

Moreover, the general determination on Noah's side was firm. No one wanted to die, but all of his underlings were ready for that eventuality. Actually, some even saw their partic.i.p.ation in the final battle as the greatest reward that they could hope to obtain.

Meanwhile, the improved cultivators had joined Heaven and Earth out of fear and desperation. The sky had granted them the chance to cheat death and live in peace, but that had turned out to be a weakness now.

Of course, death happened on both sides, but it was clear that Heaven and Earth's forces would lose at that pace. The dragons were simply unstoppable, and their companions followed their advance closely to make sure to benefit from their auras.

That trend couldn't last forever. Everyone on the landma.s.s knew that. Noah and the other leaders immersed themselves among the silence that had filled their home as they remained focused on the sky. They were all ready to jump in as soon as Heaven and Earth made a move, but they had to wait for that moment to arrive first.

The chaos wasn't the problem. Noah and the others who had remained on the landma.s.s were wary about Heaven and Earth's silence. Rays of light still shot out of that white layer, but they grew scarcer as the two upper tier dragons continued to take care of them.

Heaven and Earth's forces were in a trend they couldn't escape. They continued to retreat and die, and it seemed that even their leaders had stopped caring about their lives.

Some improved cultivators tried to return inside the sky when the situation became too dangerous, but the white layer didn't open to them anymore. Their home rejected them and forced the gruesome battle to continue without interruptions.

Panic spread as soon as the improved cultivators realized that Heaven and Earth wouldn't allow them to retreat. Many of them stopped fighting to focus on preserving their lives, but they had nowhere to go.

The sky was a barrier that the improved cultivators couldn't cross, and Cursed Reality's defenses would only lead them to the landma.s.s, where their death would be inevitable. Those a.s.sets did their best to escape the countless attacks converging on them, but the s.p.a.ce dragon made their movement techniques useless.

The higher plane grew clearer as many experts died. The numerical difference between the two forces shrunk, but no one dared to rejoice so soon. Noah's force never held back and gained ground even faster as that positive trend remained firm.

As clear areas opened in the void between the sky and Cursed Reality's defenses, Heaven and Earth released new a.s.sets, some of which even looked familiar. Noah recognized the insect-like puppets and the giant avatars that the rulers had used in the past, but the battlefield saw far more filling its empty zones.

Heaven and Earth sent forward many a.s.sets specifically built to counter some of the troublesome a.s.sets on the opposing side. Daniel, Jordan, and all the other players who had shone for their battle prowess saw special creatures flying in their direction, but the chaos of the battlefield hindered their path.

The counters couldn't work in that unique environment. The chaos was too intense, so the experts could always move to more favorable fights if needed.

Everything would change if Heaven and Earth could create something to counter the two upper tier dragons, but their lack of response to that threat revealed the truth about the situation. The rulers couldn't go against what the s.p.a.ce dragon and time dragon had achieved by sacrificing everything they had.

The transformation of the two upper tier dragons had been so deep that Heaven and Earth would need to change their nature again to counter them, which would harm their breakthrough.

The rulers could only accept that the two dragons had turned into flaws in their existence and ignore them.

The reinforcements reestablished the numerical advantage, but they failed to turn the battle's tides. The landma.s.s' a.s.sets quickly began to gain ground again, which slowly brought the higher plane to its previous state.

Heaven and Earth couldn't win by throwing random a.s.sets on the battlefield. Noah's forces would obviously experience losses during the process, but the trade-off in terms of energy and warriors was more than worth it.

Still, the change that everyone was waiting for arrived before the landma.s.s' forces could corner Heaven and Earth's a.s.sets completely. A few lights began to s.h.i.+ne at the sky's edges, and humanoid figures slowly materialized on the battlefield before unleas.h.i.+ng their auras.

The leaders on the landma.s.s understood what was happening even before sensing those auras. Heaven and Earth had sent privileged cultivators forward, but their level didn't place them at the peak of the ninth rank.

'Someone has to go up and take care of them,' Noah thought when he inspected the reinforcements.

Many privileged cultivators had failed to reach the solid stage even with Heaven and Earth providing everything they needed. Most had ended up getting annexed to the sky, but a good part of them had managed to remain independent.

Noah had stopped seeing those experts as worthy opponents once his path had put him against beings in the solid stage. Yet, he didn't forget that the sky had many weaker privileged cultivators, and Heaven and Earth had decided to send them forward now.

"I can take care of them in no time," Noah commented as he stood up to leave his training area.

"Nonsense," The old rulers' voice resounded through the communication devices. "We have prepared for this eventuality, isn't that right?"

"We did indeed," King Elbas stated as he pressed on one of the golden lines connected to his training area.

The whole array of inscriptions around the landma.s.s trembled as a series of different lights shot out of it. A yellowish spherical item, a giant avatar that carried Great Builder's facial features, countless golden puppets, and a series of buildings flew forward before teleporting on the battlefield.

"Did you think that weaklings like you could force our hand?" The old rulers' avatars spoke at the same time as the reinforcements took their place in front of the privileged cultivators.
