Ascension of the immortal Asura
chapter-86-30041322

An overwhelmingly powerful aura exploded outwards from John, completely shocking both Dylan and the crowd. While the battle aura John radiated from before felt like he was a blood hungry battle demon, this aura he currently radiated felt like he was an undefeatable battle god.

As John unleashed the Supreme Battle Art, he felt his body be empowered to much higher levels than before, and also felt the effects of the Crimson Hell Domain lessen. Although the effects of the domain were not causing much of a problem for him, John was still surprised to see that the Supreme Battle Art completely cancelled out the effects of the domain.

'The Supreme Battle Art is even better at nullifying the effects of the Crimson Hell Domain than my own Immortal Asura Body. I wonder why that is?'

While John was thinking about the wondrous effects of the Supreme Battle Art, he was stirred out of his thoughts by a panicked cry from Dylan.

"This is impossible. How the hell do you know that battle art?"

"Hmm?" John couldn't help but also be surprised by Dylan's reaction. "Does he know this battle art? But how is that possible, unless…."

Not only John, even Cade and Barden Fenix were surprised by Dylan's comment, and narrowed their eyes as they thought of a frightening possibility.

"Does it matter how I know this battle art? The only thing that matters right now is this fight, and I think it's time we end it, don't you?" John responded with a confident tone and a smug smirk.

"Arrogant. Don't get too confident yet" Dylan muttered, but internally, he was completely shocked and panicked.

"Enough talk." John summoned both the first step of the Five Step Movement Technique in combination with his Supreme Battle Art to explosively dash towards Dylan. Dylan's eyes widened in panic as he noticed John directly in front of him, slashing down with his scythe.

"How is he this fast?" Dylan hastily raised his sword, and swung it out to meet John's scythe.

Peng!

Weapons collided and Dylan was sent flying backwards like a bullet. Just before he was knocked out of the stage, he managed to control his body and stop his momentum. He looked up and noticed John rapidly approaching once more, at which point he sent out successive Qi attacks towards him.

The stage started to crumple as multiple explosive Qi attacks and powerful scythe attacks collided. After several exchanges between John and Dylan, the stage was starting to look like it would break apart at any moment. Many large craters were carved into its surface, and almost the entire stage was covered in cracks. Although Dylan was on the defensive, his power within his Crimson Hell Domain was shocking, and he was able to at least defend himself against John's powerful attacks.

"How is this the power of Mist Creation?" Both the juniors and the seniors in the crowd couldn't understand how both of these fighters were so powerful. Although the Core Formation Elders were still much more powerful than either, they couldn't help but admit that they weren't even close to this level of power when they had been in the Mist Creation Realm.

Boom!

A powerful Qi attack collided with John's scythe, and John came to a sudden halt, and even closed his eyes. The crowd was quite perplexed by John's reaction, and some Fenix Clan members even stood in fright at John's actions, thinking he was about to surrender.

"Hahaha" A loud laugh echoed boisterously from Dylan. "The Supreme Battle Art puts immense strain on the body. I'm guessing you're at your limits already." Dylan was about to attack, but suddenly stopped as he saw John slowly open his eyes and stare at him as if he was a buffoon.

"This is my first time fighting with the Supreme Battle Art, so I was still getting used to it during our exchanges. But between our exchanges and my recent comprehensions regarding the battle art, I believe I finally have the first stage completely mastered. Thank you for your help."

John was completely surprised at the profundity of his Immortal Asura Body. He could tell that the Supreme Battle Art was extremely profound, and by all means should take longer to comprehend and master than any other technique he had learned so far. But, it was as if the Immortal Asura Body was the perfect vessel for learning body battle arts, and would cut down the comprehension time needed vastly.

This was one of the main advantages of having an Innate Variant Body. Not only would the body itself be immensely powerful, it would be naturally suited to learning body techniques, and would vastly decrease the time required to master said body techniques.

Dylan scoffed and was about to respond with a mocking tone when he suddenly opened his eyes in shock.

Boom!

Sword and scythe collided, and Dylan was once more sent flying backwards violently. After managing to land on his feet, Dylan once more exploded out with even more power than before. He had realized that John was currently absolutely monstrous, and he himself didn't know if he was able to beat John. But his pride as a genius didn't allow him to back down, and so he unleashed the most powerful state he could manage.

John and Dylan continued to trade blows repeatedly, and the once pristine stone arena now looked completely unrecognizable. The crowd watched in rapt attention as the two fighters repeatedly clashed over and over. Although John had some wounds on his body, they were rather superficial and didn't hinder his fighting prowess at all.

John had also managed to send out many powerful Myriad Annihilation Scythe's during their battle. Although it was far from enough to threaten Dylan, he was still required to expend energy to block it, as he was not a body cultivator and couldn't allow the attacks to fall on his body.

After several minutes of intense fighting, Dylan was at the end of his ropes. His Crimson Hell Domain expended a lot of Qi, and he was also required to use Qi for movement techniques and Qi attacks while fighting John.

John on the other hand was completely fine. His dual dantian situation allowed him to have almost double the amount of Qi a normal cultivator would have, which allowed him to unleash more attacks, both body and essence, without tiring. Not only that, but John was finally able to realize the absurd advantage of his body dantian and palace realm connection.

During this fight, John was constantly absorbing blood essence from the palace realm into his body dantian, continually refreshing his Qi reserves, which allowed him to fight at his peak strength the entire time. The Supreme Battle Art required a lot of Qi to use, and was usually used at a final move to end a fight. Most first stage Supreme Battle Art users could last for several minutes before running out of Qi, but John had already been fighting for almost ten minutes in this state, completely shocking Dylan.

'I have enough reserves to keep fighting like this for a little bit more, but I've learned enough from this fight by dragging it out so long. It's time to end this.'

If Dylan could read John's thought, he would most likely have coughed out blood from rage. John had been using Dylan as a whetstone in this fight, and was prolonging the battle to learn more about the Supreme Battle Art and how to use it.

But his Qi reserves were starting to run low, and it was time for the battle to end. All of a sudden, an even more explosive aura radiated outwards from John, making him appear like a demonic battle god.
