Chapter 1623 - 1623. Departure

"My defenses?" Supreme Thief asked while continuing to inspect his surroundings. "I stole them too. Why would I bother to build something when I can take them from better inscription masters?"

"Death didn’t change you," Great Builder commented.

"Death changes nothing," Supreme Thief replied. "We are worlds inside Heaven and Earth. We can only expand."

Supreme Thief inspected his body. He raised his hand and checked that everything was in place. Azure light still converged toward his figure, but his existence was almost ready to live again.

Heaven and Earth didn’t like that process. They marked Supreme Thief’s existence, and they quickly reacted when the pieces of his world converged toward his figure.

A series of sparks acc.u.mulated in the sky, but Supreme Thief instinctively performed a pulling motion and tore them away from the whiteness.

Huge sparks and lightning bolts froze mid-air and flew toward Supreme Thief. Those attacks didn’t dare to move in his presence. They could be nutrients, but the expert only put them into the palace under him for the time being.

"We are back to life!" Supreme Thief eventually commented. "I bet the great masters won’t like it. How strong are you right now?"

"I’ve mostly recovered," Great Builder replied. "I need a few more years to refill my inventory and gain access to my whole battle prowess."

"That’s not bad," Supreme Thief replied. "I should be a bit better than that. We can’t let those annoying existences take over us again. We must be one step ahead of them from now on."

Noah and the others began to inspect their surroundings. They were ready for the appearance of another rank 9 cultivator, but Heaven and Earth didn’t send anyone.

Heaven and Earth had spread their punishment on the entire group after the events with Radiant Eyes. Almost all the members of the army were now suffering from that annoying curse.

"Nothing?" Supreme Thief asked in a surprised tone while inspecting his surroundings. "That’s strange. I thought Heaven and Earth hated us."

"Give it time," Great Builder. "They have just lost one of their powerful followers. I think they don’t want to waste assets on us right now."

"Boring," Supreme Thief sighed. "I wanted to steal something. Heaven and Earth’s followers are easy targets."

Noah and the others remained in silence during that interaction. They didn’t know how to join the conversation, and part of them didn’t want to attract the experts’ attention.

Still, Supreme Thief turned toward Noah’s group before they could say anything. A faint smile appeared on the expert’s face, but he remained in his position since his body had yet to solidify completely.

"You should be grateful to them," Great Builder said before Supreme Thief could do anything. "Don’t steal anything. You are alive because of their efforts."

"I was only looking," Supreme Thief replied in an annoyed tone. "I already know a few of them, especially that guy with the strange energy."

"I’ve also noticed it," Great Builder exclaimed. "I wish I could have more time to study it."

Noah felt the need to take a few steps back after those remarks, but he could sense that the experts didn’t have any ill intentions.

Supreme Thief waited until his body solidified before entering the palace. He took a few items and returned to the outside world to join his companion.

The two experts talked while their auras suppressed their words. Noah and the others couldn’t understand what they were saying, and they didn’t try to inspect their conversation out of respect for those powerful existences.

The Legion had gone from being one of the weaker organizations in the Immortal Lands to having two rank 9 cultivators conversing nearby. The scene was quite surreal, especially when considering the past of that force.

"I guess it’s time to go," Great Builder eventually said, and the weaker experts around him managed to hear his words.

"No point remaining in these barren lands," Supreme Thief sighed. "We need the storms to advance. I hope Heaven and Earth can send an expert or two in the meantime."

"Heaven and Earth already know what we can do," Great Builder complained. "We need to improve quickly, or they will overwhelm us again. I don’t think my existence can survive another death."

"I don’t think we’ll have the chance to come back to life again!" Supreme Thief laughed before turning toward Noah’s group. "I’ll leave the palace here. It still has many resources, so it works as an inheritance. You can sacrifice it if the Tribulations become too harsh to handle."

Noah felt curious about their worries. He wanted to see the duo fight Heaven and Earth. Still, he respected their fears. The rulers of the world had to have something powerful in store since Supreme Thief and Great Builder felt in a hurry to advance.

"I must leave," Great Builder announced while nearing Noah’s group. "We should be even now. We will meet again if you manage to survive through the next millennia."

"Don’t forget your greed," Supreme Thief said while winking at Noah.

Great Builder quickly neared Supreme Thief, and the duo disappeared from their position. The innate heavy aura radiated by their figure also vanished, which confirmed that the two experts had left.

Noah and the others inspected that spot for a while before glancing toward the palace. Some of them decided to enter the inheritance in silence, and none of them dared to stop those experts.

The rest of the group remained outside. A long training session was waiting for them back into their domain, but they didn’t want to start it right away.

They wanted to watch more battles that featured experts at the peak of the cultivation journey. They desired to stir chaos among the remaining human organizations. They wanted more from the Immortal Lands, but their current level had already given them everything they could seize.

The group returned inside the blue regions now protected by magical plants and various structures. The experts could inspect the many training areas and special environments created by Great Builder, and that sight left them completely satisfied.

Noah solidified his breakthrough inside those training areas. His body had shown signs of improvements only after he devoured many corpses stored inside his separate space. The upper tier seemed an immensity away, but Noah believed that he could do something to quicken his growth.

The battle against the bees had shown him that he could hunt creatures in the upper tier. Magical beasts at that level could give him far more nutrients and significantly improve the pace of his growth.

Noah also focused on his dantian since it was the only center of power that had fallen behind. Improving it required a lot of time, but Noah already had clear ideas about his path. He only had to invest time and effort, and his breakthrough would arrive.

As for his mind, Noah had already booked a series of appointments with Alexander. He wouldn’t let his portable training area run away, especially in a period so heavily focused on centers of power.

A long period went by as the experts rested and improved inside the blue lands. A series of breakthroughs happened, and most experts grew.

The Legion and Noah’s team were waiting for the human forces to reclaim their domain, but they didn’t expect a series of them to appear at the edges of the defensive magical plants.

Noah and a few experts decided to investigate the matter, and their eyes widened at that sight. Most of the leaders among the human forces had reached the blue domain even if they had yet to reclaim their old lands.
