Ascension Of The Immortal Asura-Novel

"KIRIII!" John shouted out at the top of his lungs, as Kirii ignored his first shout.

The beam descending right now was absolutely terrifying, and even John didn't think he would be able to survive through it. However, Kirri had left his soul space at the last moment, and dashed up to the lightning strike without hesitation.

He knew Kirii was a lightning beast, but this lightning was completely different from any other lighting that existed. It was the most destructive lighting the heavens could muster for his current tribulation, and it allowed for no room for survival for those who took it head on.

John's soul space suddenly trembled once more, as a thought appeared in his mind. While he and Kirri could not communicate clearly with each other, they could convey their rough thoughts and emotions to one another.

Small beads of tears appeared in John's eyes as the emotions of Kirii entered his mind. He couldn't tell the exact meaning, but he could guess as to what Kirii was saying.

"If we die, we die together!"

.

BOOM!

Deafening thunder filled the entire Bloodfiend Sect as the last lighting bolt of the horrifying tribulation struck down on Kirii. Kirii didn't use any attacks at all, and instead opted to take the attack head on.

John's eyes locked onto Kirii from below, as he saw the horrifying beam collide with his body. A deafening cry of pain boomed out from Kirii for the briefest moment, before John's soul connection with Kirii suddenly cut off.

"Nooo!"

John's thunderous cry boomed out as he watched Kirii fall from the sky, smoke trailing his falling figure. The lightning that had struck Kirii paused for the briefest of moments, before it pierced down towards John once again.

However, its power had been greatly diminished by Kirii's interference, cutting its power in half.

"Ahhhhh!"

John shouted out a cry of anger and anguish, before his body suddenly shot towards the sky. The mysterious energy that he had no control over once again welled up within his body, as he felt an overwhelming surge of power fill his body.

His axe cleaved out towards the approaching lightning beam, and his Sky Sundering Axe cleaved out, infused with the Dao's of Power and Destruction. His Immortal Asura Transformation Art was pushed to its absolute limits, leaving nothing behind.

BANG!

Axe and lighting collided, and an horrifyingly powerful explosion radiated outwards, destroying what little remained of the chamber of anguish, as well as the Bloodfiend Sect. John's arms strained with power as he clashed against the lighting, before it pierced through his battle axe and into his body.

"FUCK OFF!"

John cried out with absolute fury, as his remaining essence and body Qi revolved to its peak state, removing the rampaging tribulation lighting from within his body. The tribulation lighting struggled against him, and even seemed to have a will of its own as the two powers collided.

Blood and ash continued to spill from John's lips as he struggled against the tribulation lighting. The struggle continued for a brief movement, before it suddenly ended. The mysterious power that filled his body faded once more, filling him with a wave of additional fatigue.

John's body swayed in the sky as he nearly lost consciousness, but he barely managed to hold on through the excruciating pain as he looked down to the ground below.

"Kirii!"

Using what remaining energy he had left, John shot down to the earth below, and landed next to a smouldering body. His eyes filled with anguish, and his hands shakily reached out towards the body before him. He felt no soul connection with Kirii, and prepared himself for the worst.

"Kirii!" John whispered softly as he stroked Kirii's motionless body.

His eyes began to tear even more, when suddenly, the slightest tremble occurred beneath his hands. John's eyes shot wide open.

"Kirii! You're alive!" John exclaimed as he put his ears to Kirii's chest.

Thump!

Thump!

The faint sound of a heartbeat echoed out, indicating to John that Kirii was indeed alive. Kirii was unconscious, resulting in him unable to feel his thoughts or emotions. However, he could tell that Kirii was just barely holding on, and was on the edge of life and death.

"Hold on Kirii! I'll get you help!" John cried out as he stored Kirii in his soul space once more.

His body, nearly on the verge of collapse, struggled to get up. Kirii was his only thought at this moment.

"Help?" a mocking voice, tinged with barely contained anger entered John's ears.

John's head snapped up above him, and he quickly spotted the last person he wanted to see at the moment.

Directly above him, Allfiend floated, his eyes locked on to John's. Hatred flowed through his eyes, and John could tell that Allfiend wanted nothing more than to skin John alive at this moment.

"Allfiend!" John replied though gritted teeth as he stared at the man above him. He suddenly felt Allfiend's power wrap around him once more, restricting any movements he tried to make.

It was truly as if the grim reaper had arrived. The tribulation clouds above were beginning to disperse, indicating that John had successfully passed his tribulation. While this would normally be great news for anyone undergoing tribulation, it was the worst case scenario for John.

As long as the tribulation continued, he had guaranteed protection from Allfiend. With it gone, he only had one hope left, and he had yet to see that hope reveal himself.

"You've destroyed my sect!" Allfiend replied as he stared at John with unbridled hatred. His gaze shifted to the nearby cauldron, which while damaged was still mostly intact, before it shifted back to John. "But alas, your efforts are for naught. I will torture you to death, before I unleash hellfury on the rest of the continent. Your pitiable last stand ends now!"

John felt Allfiend's power, as well as his anger, tighten around him, nearly crushing him to death. However, he still had absolute confidence in the one that had orchestrated this whole thing. A defying look appeared on John's face as he finally felt that familiar aura suddenly appear once more.

Allfiend noticed this look on John's face, before his head quickly snapped up the sky above him. His eyes narrowed and his fists clenched tightly, as he called out through gritted teeth at the man before him.

"Thunderzen!"
