Ascension of the Immortal Asura - Chapter 638

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Powerful explosions radiated overhead as Kirii fought against the lightning avatar. Blood slicked Kirii’s body as he darted around the battlefield, restricting his opponent from reaching John and Laia.

Bang!

A horrifying sword image pierced towards Kirii, who unleashed another beam of lightning from his forehead. The two attacks collided, creating another explosion in the sky. The explosion slammed against Kirii, who was thrown through the sky.

Kirii stabilized his momentum eventually, and turned to see a blood red sword image, its might and profundity beyond compare, arrive before him. The attack was before him already, and was not something he could block in time. However, Kirii’s grave expression disappeared as a figure appeared before him.

“Fuck off!” John yelled out in a rage as he arrived before Kirii. His battle axe cleaved outwards, smashing against the sword and knocking back the lightning avatar.

“Retreat for now,” John instructed Kirii, “but I’ll need your help again soon.”.

“Aye big brother!” Kirii replied, relieved to no longer have to battle the horrifyingly powerful lightning avatar. He turned and sped down towards Laia below, resuming his protection of her, while John’s battle resumed once more.

The healing energy coursed within his body at a much greater level than before, coming directly from his soul this time. John’s hardened gaze locked onto the avatar before him, while a small smile of confidence appeared on his face.

“It’s time for you to die,” John said as his aura skyrocketed once more. He had reactivated his three Limiters when helping Kirii, but it was time to go far beyond that, and test the true limits of his full potential.

Asura Transformation Art!

John’s physical transformation occurred once more, his appearance and aura becoming much more sinister, terrifying, and powerful than before. His might reached the peak state from before once again, but after the briefest of pauses, it shattered right past the previous level, reaching a level that no one would ever believe possible for a Half-Step Heaven Tribulation cultivator.

Bloodline Ability: Activate!

John felt his blood heat up and an incredible energy course through his veins, meridians, muscles and bones as he activated his bloodline ability.  His aura continued to climb and climb as each and every blood cell acted like a small dantian and released Qi into his body. It had only been a month since he last used his bloodline ability, and based on his mothers words and previous experiences, he knew he would not be able to use it again within six months, or his body would withstand irreparable damage, with death a possibility as well.

However, when Laia had started healing John, he had been shocked to notice that the remnant traces of damage, to his meridians, muscles, bones, and even blood cells, had begun to wash away. The injuries were rooted deep within his body, and could not be repaired by any normal means, or even extraordinary means. Laia’s Dao of Life healing seemed to be the one exception as it defied the limits of his bloodline ability, which had shocked John to his core.

‘I can tell the bloodline injuries were not fully healed by Laia yet…but they’ve been healed enough to the point that I won’t die if I use my bloodline ability now. But that’s without me using my Asura Transformation Art on top of it…I just hope she can keep me alive, but I have no other choice.’

He had used the combination of powers once before in his life, and it had nearly killed him. This time he added his three limiters as well, and his current state was far more severe than at that time. John didn’t know if his body would withstand what was to come, but it was the only solution he had.

The combined power of his Asura Transformation and Bloodline Ability filled his body with power beyond compare. The space around him seemed to ripple and twist from his aura alone, which continued to climb as if it had no limit. John’s body began to break down from within, his muscles tearing, bones cracking, and meridians fracturing. Laia’s healing power surged over that damage, wiping them away as soon as it arrived, but more internal wounds appeared by the second.

Laia’s pale face scrunched in exhausted strain as she poured all she could into John’s body. His current state of power was far beyond anything she thought possible, and that power was far beyond what his body could handle. Without her healing, John knew his body would have already become crippled.

Flash!

John flashed forward, his speed beyond anything he had revealed before. He appeared before the lightning avatar in an instant, who seemed shocked by his speed as well. His battle axe cleaved outwards, small ripples appearing in space wherever it traveled, while the air boomed out loudly as it could not part fast enough.

The axe slammed onto the lightning avatar before it could react, cleaving it completely in half. The lightning avatar’s body offered no resistance at all, as if it were made of paper, but its body instantly healed and it slashed out its sword towards John.

Bang!

John’s fist punched out, slamming against the flat of the sword and breaking it in half.  The power of his fist created a shockwave that slammed into the earth below, rending the land apart. Fractured earth flew out in all directions, some pieces landing as far as a dozen miles away.

Che!

His other hand holding his battle axe cleaved forward once more, severing the lightning avatar in half.

Che!

Che!

Che!

The lightning avatar healed from each attack, but was met with another apocalyptic axe attack from John, severing it in half once again. The lightning avatar dashed around the sky at incredible speeds while it slashed out its sword towards John, who matched its speed and met each attack with another punch, the speed of his fist too fast for the lightning avatar to react to.

The ground below continued to explode from his heaven-defying power, while Kirii continued to guard Laia with his life.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The land quaked ceaselessly, as if an earthquake that was about to rip apart the world was occurring. At the same time, space rippled in the sky non-stop as axe attack after axe attack slashed outwards, the power of it beyond anything the lightning avatar could withstand. Its body split in half over and over, while its power rapidly faded as it healed from each wound.

Even with Laia’s healing energy, John felt his body start to fall apart from within. However, he ignored any pain and damage he felt as he continued his ceaseless assault on the lightning avatar. Laia’s lips trembled as she closed her eyes and focused on providing John with all the healing energy she could muster. She felt as if her vitality and life-force was drying up, but she ignored everything she felt as she focused only on healing John.

“Just die already!” John raged as another attack cleaved the lightning avatar in half. He had half a mind to just absorb the lightning avatar like last time and be done with it, but he knew his body would not be able to withstand such a thing, even with Laia’s healing. However, that did not mean that there wasn’t another who could accomplish such a thing.

The lightning avatar healed from John’s attack once more, while blood red swords continued to rain down on John from all directions. However, none of the swords could damage John’s body, as his current state of power was far beyond anything from before.

Che!

Another Advent of Annihilation cleaved into the lightning avatar, separating it in half. It healed as expected, but John had finally become accustomed to its timings. His scythe appeared in his hands, while his aura seemed to surge with absolute power for one last attack. A black and red aura exploded off his scythe, its power fracturing the blade and shaft.

Divine Reaping Scythe!

John unleashed his ultimate Divine Reaping Scythe, the power so incredible that it shattered the scythe into pieces after unleashing the attack. Space seemed to almost tear wherever the attack passed by, as if it was on the verge of collapse. The attack arrived before the newly healed lightning avatar, who attempted to break through the restrictive power it felt from the battle art. However, its newly healed state could not muster its strength in time, and the scythe image cleaved directly through the lightning avatar, dividing it in half.

The terrifying spatial energy of the Divine Reaping Scythe lingered between the severed half, not allowing the lightning avatar to heal at all. The lightning avatars energy rapidly drained as it did its best to erase the lingering spatial energy and heal its wounds, which it eventually managed after several seconds of throwing an incomprehensible amount of energy towards the task.

“Now!” John yelled out, his voice beyond hoarse, as if his through was about to collapse.

At his command, Kirii appeared right next to the lightning avatar, whose aura was now weak beyond compare. However, even in this state, the lightning avatar could fight for several more minutes at peak strength before dissipating, but John would not give it that chance.

Kirii roared as he opened his mouth wide, before he clamped down on the head of the newly healed lightning avatar. Kirii’s aura flared to his maximum power while his control over the Dao of Lightning surged. The lightning avatar attempted to resist Kirii’s power, but its state had been weakened too much.

The heavenly eyes above could only watch on helplessly as the lightning avatar was absorbed by Kirii, disappearing from sight before long. Red lighting ramped over Kirii’s body and within, which he did his best to suppress. Blood leaked from Kirii’s mouth as his aura dropped rapidly, while the last remaining traces of the lightning avatar finally faded away.

The horrifying lightning avatar had finally been defeated.
