Go through that and still creaking, it's either the seatpost fixing bolt(s) or it's in the hubs. If not, you may need the frame to be inspected. Wouldn't hurt to inspect the chainring itself either. A screwed up chainring tooth could cause the noise as well, especially if there is a grinding sound.

Clicking sounds are hard to diagnose.
