Ascension Of The Immortal Asura-Novel

Kirii's cultivation was now at the Mid Core Formation Realm. Based on its incredibly latent talent as a heavenly beast, John was not worried about Kirii ensuring his safety.

John pointed at the five distant Bloodfiend Sect youths, his finger pointing to Azalea.

"If you can keep her occupied for the next while, that will be more than enough," John communicated through his soul connection with Kirii. Kirii's eyes immediately lit up in an excited manner, eager to experience its first battle, as well as help out John anyway he could.

John wanted Kirii to stay away from the Sword Emperor, as his sharp attacks were quite terrifying, and only he was confident in blocking them with his body. As for Damon, he was John's prey from the start.

John lowered his hand and began to walk over to the five distant youths, who were staring at him in amusement. Despite his toughness being shocking in that he survived their combined attacks, they were not worried about him turning the tides at all, even with the arrival of his companion.

John's sneak attack had been mostly successful, but that was because the Bloodfiend King was not ready for it. If the Emperors truly wanted to interfere with that sneak attack, they could have. But the Bloodfiend Sect was every man for themselves, and so they had no intention of helping those weaker than them in such a manner.

John's aura once again began to climb as he started walking over to the five youths. His battle intent shot into the sky, revealing that he was not backing down in the slightest. There wasn't a trace of fear in his aura or intent, slightly surprising the other youths.

Kirii's battle aura also skyrocketed, mimicking John as it prepared for battle.

"Even with your pet at your side, your only choice is to die here," Azalea said to John in a mocking tone.

John ignored the mocking comment, and continued approaching.

While his body Qi reserves were quite limited, his essence reserves were filled to the brim. With core compressions, each compression improved the quality of the Qi stored, as well as the quantity. Even when compared to a heavenly prodigy who achieved ten compressions, John's essence Qi reserves would be more than double, let alone whatever the Bloodfiend Emperors achieved.

John was not worried about running out of essence Qi before them.

Heavenly Lightning Domain!

Unworried about his essence reserves, John instantly activated his lightning domain. Thirty six lightning nodes suddenly sprung up in the surrounding area, spaced all around John, and stretching up to a hundred yards away.

He had bought the Core Formation portion of the Heavenly Lightning Domain, and was now displaying its true power. Not only were there more nodes, but the lightning he could unleash from the nodes was much more powerful.

When John was at the Qi Condensation Realm, he could only unleash one lightning node attack at a time. Now his limit was eight. It should have been two when advancing to the Core Formation Realm, but John's incredibly dantian core allowed him to exceed the limits of the technique.

The Emperors and Kings immediately noted the domain, and frowned slightly. Its power was far beyond their expectations.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Several lightning node attacks pierced directly towards Azalea. She scoffed and turned to block the approaching attacks. A strange looking weapon, like a mirror with a long handle suddenly appeared in her hands,

Bang!

The lightning attacks struck onto the mirror, knocking her backwards dozens of yards. Her eyes opened in slight surprise, at both the power and profundity of the lightning.

"Careful, his lighting is much more powerful than it looks. Don't let it strike you," Azalea spoke up. Her words of caution surprised the other youths, as they knew how powerful she was. She would only give such a warning if it was warranted.

Azalea finally stopped her backwards momentum two hundred yards away from the group. She remained uninjured, and scoffed at John's attack.

"If that was all you have, you're as good as dead."

John looked at Azalea, and shook his head.

"Idiot."

Roaaaaaar!

A loud, guttural roar echoed within the formation, drawing the attention of all those inside. The source of the roar sped towards Azalea like a blur, reaching her in an instant. Azalea barely managed to raise her mirror in time to block the attack.

Boooom!

Kirii's head struck Azalea's strange mirror, forcing it against her body. Azalea shot backwards like a cannonball, smashing into the formation wall behind her. Her body violently rebounded to the ground below, as she struggled to land on her feet. She had not been prepared for such an intense attack.

Lightning began to build up on Kirii's body, gathering on its forehead, where its now disguised lightning crystal existed.

Bang!

Lightning immediately exploded out of Kirii's forehead, piercing directly towards the still recovering Azalea. Its power was incredible, and was even more powerful than John's full powered Lightning Ruin!

Azalea's blood and Qi were still in turmoil within her body from the previous attack, and she was not able to muster a normal defense in time to block this attack. Azalea grit her teeth as she raised her mirror before her.

Her mirror suddenly began to glow, and a strange aura wrapped around it.

The lightning beam struck onto the mirror. Everyone was expecting a powerful explosion to radiate outwards, but there was only silence as the attack disappeared.

Boom!

A loud boom suddenly echoed out as the lightning beam appeared once more, piercing directly towards Kirii. Azalea's face paled considerably as she redirected the attack.

Kirii noticed the approaching lightning beam, but did not understand how it had been deflected. However, Kirii did not dodge the attack at all.

Boom!

The attack landed directly onto Kirii's body, causing a powerful explosion to radiate outwards. Kirii was engulfed in an explosion of extreme lightning, causing its body to be lost within.

"Hahaha, that pet of your's is an idiot," Azalea laughed out loud after turning the tides.

The technique she used was one of her ultimate defense techniques, and it took out quite a bit of Qi from her. She could also only use it twice before the burden on her body became too great and she had to rest. However, the cost had been worth it to eliminate the meddling pet.

John ignored Azalea as he continued to approach the others, as he muttered under his breath once more.

"Complete idiot. How is lightning going to injure Kirii?"

Another powerful lightning beam suddenly pierced out of the fading explosion, once again piercing directly towards Azalea. Her eyes widened in surprise as she suddenly utilized a movement technique, narrowly dodging the attack.

The fading lightning explosion revealed Kirri, standing there in perfect health. Its eyes burned in anger, not having been attacked, but having missed Azalea with its attacks. It was like a child throwing a temper tantrum at not achieving its goal. Kirii suddenly sped towards Azalea, appearing like a blur of lightning as it reached her in an instant.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

A series of loud explosions began to ring out as Kirri and Azalea began to exchange moves, neither seemingly getting the upper hand. However, the other Bloodfiend youths could tell that due to Azalea using that technique of hers already, she was starting to lose out due to lessened combat prowess.

Damon frowned at the scene, and suddenly gestured to one of the Bloodfiend Kings.

"Kaiden, go help Azalea. The three of us here will be more than enough to handle this lowly Heavenly Lightning peasant."

Damon had no idea how John had such a powerful pet, but that didn't matter right now. They could study Kirii after John was dead.

Kaiden nodded his head and sped over to Azalea, joining in her fight. Booms continued to echo out on the other side of the formation, as Kirii fought against Azalea and Kaiden.

John continued to walk over to Damon, and his slow but steady steps as he approached the youths seemed to be like the war drums of a battle god, signifying the start of an incredible fight to come. His battle intent rose with every step, and by the time he stood before them, John's battle intent was unlike anything the crowd had seen before.

John finally approached the three youths, and stood only a dozen yards away from them. His cold, smoldering eyes stared directly at Damon, seemingly ignoring the two other youths.

"With your death, I'll finally pay tribute to my fallen brother," John said in a cold but steady tone.

Understanding finally appeared on Damon's face, as he began to laugh loudly.

"So that's why you've decided to throw your life away? For your stupid friend I cut down earlier? Haha, you Heavenly Lightning Peasants truly are idiots." Damon replied. "Don't worry, you'll be joining him soo-"

Boom!

Lightning rained down from every direction from John's Lightning Domain, all piercing directly towards Damon. At the same time, John's body shot forward like a blur, as his scythe struck down directly towards Damon's head.

The time to avenge Russell had finally arrived.
