Noah gathered all the corpses in his space-ring.
He had used only his body to fight them so he was in his peak form, only a few drops of "Breath" in the membrane around his heart were lost.
'The liquid "Breath" in my body should be refilled autonomously by my dantian over time, there is no need to stop just yet.'
He resumed his exploration toward the lower layers with his head full of thoughts about his recent fight.
'The Shadow steps spell is useless in battle now that my body is in the heroic ranks, it can help me only during my flight. Also, my running speed is now higher than my flying one, my blood companions are falling behind my improvements.'
Echo and Shadow were created from rank 3 magical beasts, their power was fixed, they could not overcome the limits of the human ranks no matter how much Noah's centers of power increased in power.
'Should I attempt creating a companion from a rank 4 creature? Can I even do that?'
