Chapter 626: Giving No Choice…
“Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh,” the sound of troubled breathing could be heard throughout the entire arena, as white air puffed out of Zera’s lips and nose, two cuts on his face from which golden-colored blood dripped down, staining the wretched ground beneath him.
Opposite him, Asura stood, not a single slash mark to be found on him at all, his back as straight as a mountain, his aloofness the same as ever, while holding his four axes within his grasp.
“You lack!” The same word that he had said at the beginning of their battle was said to him once more as Zera took a deep breath, calming his heart.
The result of their battle was as clear as day. And it was just as Asura had said. He was lacking compared to the devil before him. In physical strength, Asura was stronger than him. In combat prowess, Asura was unmatched and had more experience than him.
It was what even he had to give credit to the young man for. The devil was truly strong, just as he had suspected.
“You’re stronger than I am, in brute power, and you have more experience in combat than I do. Those are irrefutable,” Zeras replied to him as he rose upright, his eyes holding a hint of respect.
“Your expression holds respect, but it’s different. I can smell your will from here. You still think you can defeat me?” Asura asked with a scoff as he readied his battle stance once more, this time with the will to bring this unfulfilling battle to an end.
“You’re strong, just like an Asura. Still, I’m not the only one lacking…” Zeras said as he slowly sheathed his Katana.
“Have you gone stupid?” Asura asked, seeing as his opponent kept his weapon, the only thing that had stopped him from dying.
“What do you think of techniques, Asura?” Zeras suddenly asked as strange red runes began interlocking with his silvery runes and soon, red lightning began crackling over Zera’s body, slowly forming a strange red armor of lightning around him.
“Techniques, skills, arts, manuals. They are only the tools of weaklings, and a fading belief in your natural power. My brute power can cut through those like a hot knife through butter,” Asura said with disdain, and Zeras grinned widely.
“Just as I thought…”
“I’ll be coming with my full power now. Open your eyes well and watch…” Asura said, before slowly bending to the ground, his upper body stretched forward and all four of his hands behind him.
Immediately, circular ripples began appearing under Asura’s feet, continuously like a wave as Zeras got into a battle stance, both fists raised up, and then…
The ground behind Asura suddenly shattered into pieces, the shattered parts soaring upwards as if gravity had been crushed. Yet those shattered remnants in the air once more exploded to dust as two Asuras suddenly appeared on the battle stage.
One still in his crouching position, 50 meters away, and another an inch away from Zeras…
CLEEEAAVE
CLEAAAAVE
The two axes in Asura’s upper hands slashed down towards Zeras, the space in the path of the axes uttering a groan of pain from the colossal force being transmitted through it, and immediately…
BAAANG
BAAANG
Zeras slammed both his legs to the side before his palms shot forwards towards the axes cleaving towards him, as if trying to catch the ruinously powerful race.
“Tch, idiot…” Asura grumbled as he looked at Zeras who was responding to his slash with his two open palms and then…
KABOOM
The ground beneath Zeras’ feet gave way instantly, as he uttered a groan of pain. Yet Asura could be seen held in mid-air, and as the dust cleared, they could see two axes in the hands of Zeras, who had golden blood dripping down from holding the axes.
Yet the result was as clear as day, Zeras had stopped Asura’s axes in their tracks.
“What’s this?” Asura asked in shock, looking at Zeras who held his axes within his grasp, and no matter how hard he pulled, he couldn’t get them out…
“How did you…”
BAAAAAAANG
A shockwave rippled outwards as Zeras, who was forced onto his knees from stopping the palms, suddenly jumped, rotating before smashing his legs on Asura’s jaw, sending the devil soaring into the air before crashing on the ground…
“What the!!?”
“I’ll be keeping this…” Zeras said, looking at the two axes that were still dug into his palms, and with a single will, they disappeared into his spatial ring. frёeωebɳovel.com
‘He dislocated my jaw with a kick. No! He has kicked me more than a hundred times in our previous exchange, yet he couldn’t make a single scratch. Just what sorcery is this? His energy wave is still the same…” Asura said in shock as he moved his hands to his jaw, finding out that it had been dislocated…
“Hey, what type of sorcery is this?” Asura asked after setting his jaw back to normal…
“A type of sorcery I was saving up for some people, but I can’t afford to lose, so I might as well just lose a quarter of it to you…” Zeras replied back to him as Asura’s eyebrows furrowed.
And truly, what Zeras said was the truth. It wasn’t only the Nine Star Hegemon Manual that he had. The only reason why he even had it was due to another reason, which was to fill up the Soul stars present in his soul.
His soul stars absorb the energy of entire stars to light themselves up, and their energy can’t be used by him. Until around two months ago when he found a way to release their energy in his attacks.
Every energy held the entire power of stars themselves, and using them makes his destructive power fly through the roof. He had been saving them for the next two years when he will be facing his real nemesis, but he knew Asura was stronger than him.
He couldn’t afford to lose this battle at all or his growth will be stopped for he couldn’t become an inner sect, so Zeras had decided to use part of the energy he had been storing.
