When in doubt: explosion. If that doesn't work: more explosion.
'It doesn't look like a trap, and it should also be impossible to plan one due to the pact sealed by the rank 6 existences. However, even if I'm overthinking, I should still forge a few explosive devices as a contingency plan.'

He should consider getting some kind of non-explosive weapon to hide the fact that he's killing them with a mental technique. The Empire knows that's a trademark skill of the Hooden Devil.
Its corpse though remained on the ship, Noah couldn't pillage it.

About an hour later, a pack of Razor-head dolphins neared the corpse of the Sea turtle.

Ah, the 'fresh' smell of pickled worm!
Then, he took out the barrel where he had sealed the head of the rank 4 worm and he opened it.

Yeah, you see lines like "he cultivated for thousands of years"... and yet civilization is still going on like normal... doop de doop. I just pass that off as writers not wanting to bother with continuity outside their character's sphere of influence.
'How big is this damned continent! I would have crossed half of my previous world now.'

Ah... the joys of cultivation!
Noah's skin grew, it was white and smooth, devoid of any follicle, not even a simple imperfection was present on it.

Anger filled him as he went back to the cave on the side of the mountain.

That's the thing though... "they" are doing it personally, by going out to utilize the tools they 'crafted'. He's looking at everything from a perspective of holding on to what power he can claim with his own personal strength, while overlooking that part of his strength comes from the benefits of a thriving civilization. Yes, the weak can only be taken advantage of by the strong, but the strong can't enjoy the advanced cultivation resources without the efforts of the 'weak'. And to be clear: in this scenario, HE is the 'weak' one being used as a tool of the strong for their goals.
However, he felt disappointed seeing such a grand organization unwilling to deal personally with their problems.

Honestly, with all the superior inheritances available to all the royals and nobles, I don't see how one more cultivator getting an inheritance is a critical threat to him. Just be clear about the risk and let her have at it. Kinda overkill on the paranoia, IMO.
'It's getting faster, I should spend more time with her to be certain that she won't be an enemy in the future.'

Noah took a look at the other side and saw a small room almost empty except for a skeleton sitting on a throne with his limbs crossed.

Will. He's a bit of a burden right now, but not everything is about combat in a society. (Look up "albatross around one's neck" if that's what you were asking.)
Embarrassingly, it was Will who forced the group to stop. Although his thigh injury had been transferred to Jake, his stamina was simply the worst of the group. Even Tim and Lily weren't sweating as much as he was.

Yeah, it's offset a bit by how useful he is with administration and trading outside the trials. But in the trials, he's definitely an albatross.

Earth to Stone. He can clearly manipulate the earth... just say that he was shifting as he traversed from entrance to chamber. It's a moot point now since he revealed it, but it's absurdly naive and trusting, which is a bit out of character for him.

I believe I mentioned this in an earlier chapter's comments, but Roland recognizes that the progenitor, as harmless as she seems right now, is responsible for thousands of deaths personally, and untold more through her progeny. And she's far from being a benevolent pacifist even now... remember when her friend/servant died for killing the cooks as the players moved in? She killed all her virgin 'cattle' in simple spite and rage before engaging the players. Roland isn't an exceptionally compassionate character, but he truly does see the NPC's as real people and doesn't want there to be needless bloodshed. The eternal argument to vampirism is that humans can be just as cruel to each other even without the disease / curse. But for vampires, once cursed there is NO CHOICE for them but to kill other humans or treat them as cattle. You can pity her, but her very nature is abhorrent to human existence as a whole. Honestly, I pity the Nether God even more. She may be the god of the underworld, but she doesn't seem to truly understand mortals or humans anymore, much less why death is a bad thing. As her divinity isn't about Creating death so much as being a house for dead souls, she's not really inherently 'evil' from a subjective human perspective.

Frostwolf Clan: "DIBS!"
"Fantastic. We'll take the mission." Bright light burst out of the Winterwolf Holy Lady's eyes. "The northern liches, right? They're now the Frostwolf Clan's targets. Nobody can beat us to them."

I swear, there's a visual meme for EVERYTHING! LOL
He snapped his fingers, invoked a cloud, and asked, "Do you want to ride your hose and get on the cloud to direct the way for me?"

There's a huge difference between reversing the inertial vector of an object and just deflecting / diffusing it. That's just the physics of it. With his 'space' magic maybe he could invert the axis, but that's stepping into 'God Mode' cheat levels.
"You must know that a force can be conducted and transformed," said the bald middle-aged researcher. "I've checked the absorption rate of your Magic Shield, which is almost 100%. But can't you try to transfer the brunt? For example, you can conduct the force to your feet and turn the part of the shield underneath you into a shivering membrane that can easily unleash most of the force."

"The only difference was some were different."
Everything had radiations. The only difference was that some were huge and some weren't.

Someone needs to introduce the kid to Jeb from Macronomicon’s series. Just follow Faerie rules. Lie by omission and misdirection!
Sunny's very survival was predicated on his ability to deceive and outsmart other people. Even the Spell itself congratulated him on his treachery! Without the ability to lie, he wouldn't be able to achieve anything.
