System vs Rebirth

"True Spirit Body, Undying Infernal Body!"
The flame let out its final burst, engulfing all the demons around them.
"Noel!" Anna finally reached him, but it was too late. She looked into his eyes while biting her lips.
Noel smiled for a second, but they didn't have a lot of time as the demons continued swarming them.
The Ancient Demon Spider was also alarmed after knowing that Noel, who managed to injure him, actually rose once again.
Scree!
The Ancient Demon Spider ordered the demons to kill him. Even the Grass Demon hurriedly summoned its grasses to restrain Noel.
However, with a single wave of his hand, Noel sent out a superheated gale. With the True Spirit Body, Noel's Fire Gale was not ordinary anymore.
The ground turned dry as if all the water content inside had evaporated. The weeds and seeds were reduced to nothing, making the ground completely barren. The demons got their skin brushed by this gale and ended up with burned skin. Some of them even caught fire or melted.
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
The demons were wailing in pain.
The Grass Demon simply couldn't believe it. A single gale was all it took to render him useless.
The Ancient Demon Spider hurriedly shot out its ray of poison, even if there were other demons standing in its path. Noel had simply become a tad too strong for a Spirit Grandmaster.
Noel glanced at the incoming green-colored ray.
The black wings on his back suddenly expanded as Noel pulled Anna into his embrace as the wings wrapped around them, protecting the couple from the poison ray.
The green-colored light hit them in full force. A lot of demons were corroded until nothing remained. No one inside the attack range was spared, even if it was Peak Level Demons.
However, the poison ray actually posed no harm to the black wings.
In fact, the spider could actually see the wing burning down the ray before it even touched them.
"!!!" The spider looked shocked as this wasn't supposed to happen. No matter what, Noel was still a Spirit Grandmaster while he was an Ancient Demon. In addition, he was half-dead not long ago.
Anna looked at Noel worriedly. She could see black veins appearing all over Noel's body. It was the same as her gathering more energy from the Thunder Berserker Spirit earlier.
Noel's face was already pale as if his own life were being drained away. She noticed blood leaking from the corner of his mouth.
"Noel..." Anna wanted him to stop, but before she could do it, Noel had retracted his wings.
The spider's poison ray had created a huge path to escape for both of them. However, Noel knew that the spider would definitely chase him.
Hence, Noel waved his hand up while muttering in a low voice. "Blossom! Undying Rose."
"!!!" The spider looked down. All of a sudden, black-colored veins and roots emerged from the ground as they started circling around his legs.
Scree!
The spider was wailing in pain. These veins and roots were actually melting its tough skin. He hurriedly released all his spiritual energy to blow away the fire. However, that spiritual energy ended up feeding Noel's flame even more.
The giant veins grew up, acting as a stem. When it reached all the way to its base, a few holes appeared on the veins as roses started to bloom, creating ominous black roses.
Scree!
The spider started to become desperate. It shot out the webs onto its own legs, covering the black flame. This was the only way to actually suppress the black flame.
The spider started rampaging in the area because of the hot flame, which ended up distracting him.
Meanwhile, Noel started flying in the opposite direction, using the gap that the poison ray created earlier.
Other demons hurriedly patched it up, but Noel almost got out by the time they managed to stand in his way.
Without hesitation, Noel flapped its wings, sending forth more than twenty feathers ahead.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The feathers burst into flame once they touched their targets, engulfing the
demons and everything around them, including trees.
The flame spread wide, which was actually Noel's target. The trees would end up becoming their wall of fire, preventing others from catching up to them.
In addition, all the demons that stood in their ways had been burned down to the ground. Noel took this chance to fly out of the encirclement.
The demons that tried to chase after them had to go through the flame wall.
Some dared to break through, only to meet their ends by being engulfed by flame. Some tried to loop around, but Noel had spread his flames as far as possible with those twenty feathers, causing them to take a long time to loop
around.
By the time they reached the end, Noel was already far away.
"Noel, stop! Let me take care of you from here. Don't use your power anymore!" Anna struggled, but Noel refused to budge. He was using his own spiritual energy to increase their pace, which was slightly faster than Anna's speed.
Tears started streaming down her face. The reason she wanted him to stop was because he had exerted too much power.
His face was already so white that she might mistake him for a ghost. The skin of his fingers was drying up as though he had been in water for several hours.
Blood was already coming out of his eyes, mouth, nose, ears, and even his pores. The veins had popped, causing severe damage inside his body.
If this continued, he would die. She didn't want it.
However, Noel refused to stop. He continued to fly for another two minutes
before eventually landing next to a big tree.
The moment his feet reached the ground, the fire ring and wings on his back disappeared, and the black flame tattoo returned to the Spirit Seal.
Noel placed his hand on the tree, barely supporting his body.
"Gah!" He spat a mouthful of blood as he could feel his own heartbeat gradually
slow down. He ended up falling down.
"Noel!" Anna gritted her teeth as she caught him carefully. She flipped him around and placed her hand on his chest to check his condition.
She couldn't describe how horrible it was.
"No, no, no!" Anna panicked. She had to come up with something fast to save
him.
Noel panted weakly while looking at the sky. "I'm glad... At least you're fine."
"Stop talking!" Anna was staring at his body. She had to fix the veins first. There was Noel's Force Control technique. After he showed her the Force Control during the training with Old Ru, she had been learning it from time
time, so she
could use it for a bit.
However, the Force Control used the target's own recovery to stimulate their
regeneration. It wasn't suitable for Noel's condition since his spiritual energy had
dried up and his veins had been tattered.

"This might also be fate. In our
previous lives, we died at the peak of
stage. Even
the grandmaster this timeline, we we would actually have
suffered the same thing... except that
this time, I managed to beat fate. At the very least, you survive." Noel smiled while holding her left hand, his
grip weakening by the second. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!

"Stop talking! I'm going to heal you
right away!" Anna looked around. "You only used low level skills like wings, feathers, and gate. Only that rose is powerful. You knew that using too many high level skills would be harmful. There's still a chance! That's
right. The pills that the Sword Saint gave you!" The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
Anna hurriedly searched for those pills in Noel's body since he always brings
them everywhere.

"I know my body's condition. Even
that pill will only close the wounds,
not bring back my life force. It won't be enough." Noel started gasping for air, knowing his end was near. "You know what... My goal was to escape
the chains that restrained us. I wanted to be free... the most free
person in this world. I guess... it's not
possible. I have put the strongest
shackle on myself... the shackle called love." The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
If he wanted to be freed from all the restraints, it wasn't only fate, obligation, or responsibility. He also had to escape from the shackle in his heart.
For that, Noel had failed as there was no way he couldn't escape this shackle.
However, Noel could actually say with a smile, "But... I never regretted it once. At the very least, this....
different from our previous lives..."
Anna reached out for the pocket on Noel's pants, feeling the bulge of a pouch
that he used to carry the remaining two pills. However, when she grabbed the pouch, her body shook and her expression turned aghast. The weak grip on her hand was completely gone.
