Bab 1279: 1279. Head

'This won't do,' Noah thought as he stared at the storm of ice.

Noah had confirmed that he owned stronger attacks. The quasi-rank 7 Eternal Snake couldn't match his offensive. That was one of the fields where magical beasts inevitably fell behind cultivators.

Noah was almost able to match the creature's physical might. The Snake didn't have other attacks at its disposal, so Noah could overcome it with his sword arts, spells, and techniques.

However, Noah's prowess had a fatal weakness. The power that he expressed during that fight wasn't his real strength. His ambition made him reach that level, but that empowerment had a time limit.

Those limitations had become laxer after he reached the solid stage, but that feature didn't vanish with his breakthrough. Noah would eventually go back to his real level, so he had to kill his opponent before that happened.
