Ascension of the Immortal Asura

703 Terrifying Might



The aura from Asuros exploded out, bathing every inch of the battlefield with his power. Many of the other cultivators, both friend and foe alike, collapsed to their knees, unable to resist the aura washing over them. The power of the aura was incredible, but its nature was beyond overwhelming. Each and every cultivator felt like they had just been dropped into the depths of hell itself.

Death, destruction, despair, agony, anguish, torment, suffering, blood, murder! These were the thoughts all within the aura felt, as the aura itself threatened to drive them to the edge of madness and force them off that edge.

“Ahhhhhh!” Cries of agony and pain boomed out across the battlefield as many of the weaker youths started crying out in pain and clawing at their faces, ripping their own skin apart as they were seemingly driven mad from the sinister aura.

The stronger youths were able to resist the sinister aura, but they felt their minds become pained with these thoughts as they resisted against it. Only the top geniuses like Miko, Amber, and the others were able to resist the mental effects of Asuros’s aura, but the physical power of the aura still lingered.

“This isn’t even a domain! How is his aura alone so sinister…and powerful?” Iseria, the strongest of the Faeries muttered as she arrived next to Miko. She had been battling elsewhere on the battlefield, but Asuros’s arrival had changed things.

Miko’s eyes narrowed as he felt the aura of Asuros wash over him. Thanks to his strong soul, he was able to fully resist the mental effects of Asuros’s aura, but the power itself was still pushing down on him. Miko’s thoughts ran wild as the aura emanating from Asuros reminded him of someone else, although it was just different enough for him to not be certain.

“Get ready,” Miko said softly to Iseria, ignoring her question completely. “And hold nothing back, or we’ll both die! I can tell he has yet to reveal his full power!”

Iseria nodded her head as a grave look appeared on her face. Asuros was already so powerful, and yet Miko had insinuated that there was more to come.

Miko’s gaze shifted sideways as he saw Amber slowly move away from him. He glanced at her face, and saw a look of mockery and glee on it.

“It’s unfortunate that I won’t be able to kill you myself, but watching you die isn’t bad either,” Amber mocked as her figure flashed and appeared at another part of the battlefield. Her red sword slashed out as she unleashed a powerful battle art, which instantly sliced a Honorable Alliance youth in half. Despite her power being diminished from her battle with Miko, she was still too much for anyone else to handle.

Miko’s frown deepened as he saw Amber resume her rampage, but knew he could not afford to help out. The rest of the battlefield would have to fend for themselves while he handled Parker…or Asuros.

“Miko!” Iseria cried out.

Miko’s gaze shifted from Amber back to Asuros, and his eyes widened as his dantian flared with maximum power, as did Iseria’s.

Bang!

Three weapons collided as Asuros appeared before the two of them in a flash, his speed beyond shocking. His saber slammed down on Mikos thin white sword and Iseria’s thin translucent sword, both which were Dao Transformation grade weapons. Both Miko and Iseria felt an overwhelming physical force course through their bodies, a force neither was able to resist.

Boom!

、 Boom!

Two plumes of dust and debris blasted outwards as both of them slammed into the earth below, shattering it with the force their bodies had contained.

Asuros raised his saber above his head as he stared at Miko below, who had quickly rebounded to his feet. Asuros raised an eyebrow as he saw Miko unharmed from his attack.

“I must say I’m impressed. You’re a soul cultivator and yet you managed to resist that attack. You truly are talented,” Asuros praised before his sinister smile widened once again. “But I have things to wrap up here, so just die already!”

Slash!

His saber slashed downwards as it erupted with apocalyptic power. A blackish red aura flared from his saber as it unleashed a massive saber image down towards Miko below. The saber image was thirty yards long and appeared like a realistic black saber, one that contained overwhelming might.

After unleashing the attack, Asuros turned without looking at it land on Miko below, an indication of his confidence in the attack. His gaze shifted back towards the distant stairs before the ancient dragon, and locked onto its Dragon-Essence Bone which he had come for.

Che!

A sharp, piercing sound rang out, catching his attention. He turned around to see a pure white sword image slash directly through his saber battle art, cleaving it in half and reducing its power by a considerable amount. Slight surprise appeared on Asuros’s face as he noticed this, before his saber slashed out to his right side as Miko appeared there like a blur.

At the same time, Miko’s soul power flared out with overwhelming might, causing Asuros to feel a slight soul pain which slowed his thoughts and movements.

Bang!

Saber and sword collided, causing Miko to fly backwards through the air for some time before coming to a stop. His body flashed again as he appeared before Asuros and unleashed a barrage of incredibly quick sword attacks. Each one contained lethal sharpness, and also a soul-attack which slammed against Asuros’s soul over and over.

Asuros’s saber slashed out with equal speed, shocking all as its massive size and weight indicated that his physical strength was beyond abnormal. After parrying an attack, his other hand punched outwards towards Miko’s chest, who raised his sword at the last moment to block it.

Bang!

Asuros’s fist slammed against the flat of the sword, knocking Miko backwards hundreds of yards as he tumbled through the air. Miko felt as if a mountain had slammed against his chest, but managed to block it without taking much damage thanks to his essence Qi protecting him.

Che!

At the exact same time, Iseria appeared on Asuros’s other side, slashing directly towards his waist. Her power and speed was nearly on par with Miko’s, and her sword reached Asuros before he could parry with his massive saber. Her sword slashed against Asuros’s unguarded waist, causing blood to spray out and force Asuros to the ground below.

Boom!

The ground exploded as Asuros slammed into the earth, while everyone held their breath at what had just happened. Iseria and Miko had perfect teamwork with their counter attack, and had landed a critical blow on Asuros.

Iseria stared down at the ground below, which hid Asuros within, while Miko suddenly flared with power once more as he sped forward towards Iseria.

“Watch out!” Miko cried out as he raced towards her, hoping that he would make it in time.

Boom!

The ground erupted from within as a figure sped out from within, while an overwhelming power even greater than before washed over the battlefield. Almost everyone on the battlefield collapsed to their knees as they felt the sinister mental assaults increase several times, while the power of the aura itself did the same. It was as if a demon god had arrived on the battlefield, and began to drown everyone with its aura alone.

Iseria felt the power the most intently, as the source of the aura arrived directly before her like a ghost. Her breath caught in her chest as she stared at Asuros, who seemed like a completely different creature at the moment.

Five curved and black horns pierced out from his skull, appearing almost like a crown of horns. Red runic lines covered his body, which was now far more muscular than before. His body brimmed with absolute physical might, as if a wave of his hand could shatter mountains. Sharp spikes jutted out from his shoulders and spine, making him look even more frightening.

Most terrifying of all were his blood red eyes, which stared at Iseria with a bloodthirst that sent a wave of fear throughout her body. It was as if she were being stared at by the most savage of predators, which desired to consume her immediately. She had never seen anything like this before, but could tell that the figure before her was the most dangerous creature she had ever encountered.
