Ascension of the immortal Asura
chapter-671

"I'm afraid there's nowhere for you or your friends to run to anymore," the monster youth replied with a mocking tone, clearly having heard Lily's whispers.

A grave expression lingered on her face as she knew they were helpless to do anything anymore. Even if they ran, the Monster Race youths would most likely be able to round them all up in a short manner, and slaughter them without mercy soon after.

The Monster Race youths stopped when they were a dozen yards away from the group, who stared at them with a mix of grave caution and fear. All three Monster Race youths had a Peak Heaven Tribulation cultivation, and the leading Monster Race youth's skin was quite dark, a testament to his power.

All the Honorable Alliance youths knew by now that the most powerful Monster Race species was the King Race. The King Race had sharp claws and fangs, vertical yellow pupils, bat like wings on their backs, and most important of all, dark skin. The color of their skin dictated how pure their bloodline was, with the most impure having gray skin while the purest were pitch black.

The two flanking monster youths had grayish-charcoal skin, while the leading youth had much darker skin. While it was not quite pitch black, it was quite close, revealing that his talent was towards the very top of the King Race.

The leading Monster Race youth looked at Lily for a while, his expression souring slightly while he clicked his tongue in displeasure.

"Tch, you went and burned your blood essence," the monster youth grumbled. "Blood essence is the best tasting, as well as the best for improving cultivation, and yet you went ahead and burnt something so valuable…what a waste."

"If you wont have her, then I will," the monster youth to the left spoke up shortly afterwards while his greedy yellow eyes locked onto Lily.

"Even with her blood essence burned, her talent is still far above the others, and so is the quality of her blood. She's mine," the lead Monster youth replied dismissively. A slightly disappointed expression appeared on the other monster's face, but he didn't argue, a clear indication of their statuses and power differences.

"You two can have the others," the lead monster youth said as he inspected the other living Honorable Alliance youths.

"Fuck you!" one of the Honorable Alliance youths raged as they heard the monsters talking about them like cattle. He slashed out his sword, unleashing a powerful ice-based battle art that blasted against the three monster race youths with incredible power. He was the most powerful youth remaining now that Lily had been weakened, and needed to do something to keep themselves alive.

Boom!

Ice exploded everywhere, freezing the monsters and the surrounding land as far as the eye could see. A hopeful expression appeared on the youths faces for a brief moment before dread replaced it as the thick ice covering the monster youths shattered, revealing them to be completely unharmed.

Bang!

A thin beam of red Qi blasted out from the lead monster's finger as he pointed it towards the youth, which pierced through the youths skull before he could even react. The youth instantly collapsed to the ground, dead without any chance of fighting back.

"You can start your feast with him," the lead monster said, clear displeasure in his voice at having been attacked by someone he considered far beneath him.

Malicious smiles appeared on the faces of the two other monster youths, who started walking towards the Honorable Alliance youths. The Honorable Alliance youths grouped together for one final stand, although their shaking knees and fearful faces indicated that they knew this stand would be their last.

"Well, well, well…what do we have here?" a youthful, almost childish voice drifted out from behind the monsters, who quickly turned around with caution gazes. They had not detected the arrival of the ones behind them, shocking them slightly. The monster race had incredible instincts, and so sneaking behind them undetected was not easy to accomplish.

Their cautioned gazes lightened up as they noticed who had appeared, and those gazes quickly became incredibly bloodthirsty, as if they had just spotted the tastiest meal imaginable.

"Faeries?" the lead monster youth exclaimed, almost unable to contain his excitement. For the Monster Race, the blood of Faeries was the absolute best tasting, incredibly pure and fresh. They rarely had the opportunity to obtain Faerie blood, and so they nearly burst with excitement upon seeing them. They didn't even question why they were here in the first place, as they almost seemed to have lost their minds with hunger and greed.

Standing before the group of Faeries was a lone human youth, whose gaze swept across the nearby land, taking in all the death and destruction. His gaze narrowed and became colder as he noticed how many dead youths there were, while visible anger appeared on his face as well.

"Brothers! Today we feast greater than we ever have before!" one of the monster race youths exclaimed.

"Hahaha, entering this realm was truly the greatest thing we could have done!" the leader bellowed out with unbridled elation as well.

"You Monster Race fucks! Did I ever give you permission to kill any of my fellow humans?" the lone human youth in front of the Faeries exclaimed in anger, his furious words quickly stirring the monsters from their bloodlusted thoughts.

"Who are you to dare speak to us like that?" the monster leader exclaimed in furious anger. "You humans are but mere cattle to be slaughtered and consumed at the whim of our superior Monster Race!"

"Superior race? The only thing you're superior at is being ugly as shit! And you smell even worse than you look!" the youth replied with furious mockery.

"Kill him!" the monster youth barked orders at the two other monster youths next to him, clearly incensed by the humans' brash words.

The two monsters shot forward towards the lone youth, appearing before him in an instant. Their speed was beyond shocking, a testament to their incredible power. Their sharp claws pointed forward as they pierced towards the youth, intending on taking his life with a single blow.

"Pathetic!" the human mocked as his gaze shifted towards the two monsters before him and his two hands stretched outwards, one index finger pointing towards each of the monsters. An ethereal white light shot out of his fingers at incredible speeds, far faster than the monster race youths could react to.

The lights slammed onto the heads of each of the monsters and vanished from sight. The two monsters halted their forward progress and landed on their feet before the youth, while the distant monster race youth looked on with narrowed eyes after seeing what had just happened.

The attack from the youth had been instantaneous, but the monster race youth's narrowed gaze became one of mockery as he noticed absolutely no damage to either of his two friends. There wasn't even a scratch on their skin. He could tell there had been a soul-attack component to the attack, but monster race youths had quite formidable soul defenses. Soul attacks would not work on them unless the differences in soul powers were beyond compare.

"Hahaha, that was your attack?" the monster youth mocked while laughing loudly. His loud laughter instantly ceased as his two friends suddenly collapsed to the ground, their bodies as stiff as a plank of wood. His eyes widened greatly as his divine sense scanned over his friends, and he noticed they were no longer alive. Their souls had been shattered completely, ending their lives in an instant.

"Who are you?" the monster race youth asked with cautious fear as his gaze shifted back towards the human youth, who stared back at him like he was mere cattle to be slaughtered. However, a single name suddenly popped into his mind, someone that could possibly be capable of such an attack, but whose identity was still a mystery.

"The Soul-Sage?" the monster race youth asked, his voice soft as if he didn't want his opponent to hear and reply with confirmation.

"I guess you're not as stupid as the rest of your pathetic race," Miko replied, his words confirming the monster race youths' suspicions while he shot forward towards the youth with a pearly-white sword in hand. "Now die and join your two pathetic friends in the afterlife, if there is one for scum such as yourselves!"
