The last Asura Sovereign

Looking at the young-looking cultivator at the golden core formation realm, Keshab figured it was Saroj Thapa who was about his age and had broken through to the golden core formation realm two years ago. For a golden core formation cultivator, two years may not be enough to consolidate their foundation without some precious treasures.

Keshab looked at Saroj and said “Senior Thapa, why is your clan meddling here? I am sure that even if our clan had the complete inheritances of the second grade, it isn’t something your clan lacks. And even with the inheritances, the pressure the royal family will put on your clan would not be able to make any profit for you. If senior leaves with your clan members, then our clan can compensate you with all the treasures we have.”

Although Saroj was same at the same age as Keshab, in the world of cultivation, it was the strength that represented seniority. The question that bugged Keshab was why the Thapa clan was so invested in this affair that they had sent someone who had just broken through to the golden core formation realm. If it were Basanta, then it would be okay as he could take care of himself but for them to send someone who had just broken through, it was a considerable risk.

Not to mention the Rijal clan, even the who of Lunaris city didn’t have anything to make the Thapa clan that desperate, even in second-tier cities, there would barely be half a dozen golden core formation realm cultivators. Having one in the clan could ensure the smooth sailing of the clan for half millennia. And it was not just about the interference of the royal family, if the news was leaked that a young golden core formation realm cultivator had left the premise of their city and the protection of their clan, the other family, and even the city lord’s mansion would ambush them.

If they could successfully kill them when weak, they would have one less problem in the future. And with the war incoming, this would be even more advantageous for the opponents. Although there were many golden core formation realm cultivators in the Emerald kingdom, there was no telling what could happen on the battlefield. Even an extra cultivator in the golden core formation realm could change the outcome of a battlefield, nothing was fixed.

Saroj was still looking at Keshab with disdain and replied “Heh, how many treasures would your little clan have? If there was something useful for me, you would have already used it. As for the inheritance, I can take it even after your clan is destroyed.” Hearing the words of Saroj Keshab was sure there was something wrong with the situation. Saroj had not attacked for so long. For someone showing so much disdain for their clan, Saroj sure was taking his time talking.

Suddenly Keshab thought of something and his facial expression changed rapidly. He took out a jade token and passed some orders with his divine sense. He no longer stalled and gave orders. “They are planning something. Attack the invaders with all your might. Even if we die today we will bring them to the passage of hell with us. If our clan is to be destroyed, so be it, our clan ground will be remembered in history as the graves of four great clans. Don’t hold anything back. Show these sneaky bastards how much grudge we can hold” Keshab’s powerful voice reverberated all over the clan grounds.

This time he was not using jade slips, he was using his voice infused with qi and let the enemies also hear it. It didn’t matter if the enemies heard it, the main purpose was to rile up the clan members and take the battle to its conclusion. As if on cue, the clan members felt invigorated by the voice of the supreme elder and began to attack in a frenzy.

They used a lot of trump cards they had saved previously because they knew the higher-ups had decided to fight for real this time and they may never get a chance to use them if they delayed. The ground once again began to be littered with corpses, this time the corpses were mostly from the invaders because most of the clan members had saved their talismans and most of them used those at once as if in sync.

Although the invaders were aware of such possibilities, many of them could not avoid it. As for the elders and the deacons, they also unleashed their power and started battling seriously. Although they hadn’t unleashed their trump cards, they were using a lot of their power and even if they were outnumbered two to one, they were holding on their own. The middle stage foundation building cultivators were trying their best but they were still calculative because they knew that if both the opponents were in the same realm, without a certain edge, the fight could go on for days without anyone being defeated.

There was no sign of the Battle hall members and Radha till now. Most of the elders had unleashed their power once again and the battlefield became even more chaotic. The stray attacks from this time began killing more qi sensing realm members on the ground. These low-tier combatants were running all over the ground to save their lives and it wasn’t just the Rijal clan members, the invaders were also running in different directions but they still could not go past the encirclement they had made for the Rijal clan.

It was quite the irony, they had erected arrays to prevent the members of the Rijal clan from escaping and now the invaders were running towards it and they were still getting hit by the stray attacks. Meanwhile, the elders started giving their all when they saw that the situation was gradually escalating. They were now starting to use all of their moves as the invaders were also getting serious. If they could defeat their opponents, then they could go and help other elders.

Since they were outnumbered, every help counts. The elders and deacons in the air were slowly pulling out their trump cards. Since the supreme elder had ordered them to finish the battle fast then there were probably some problems with the invaders. If there were some unexpected changes, this would put the Rijal clan in a perilous situation.

The situation was already perilous since the invaders had a large number of cultivators and had a golden core formation realm cultivator, the clan members were still confident they were going to get out of this. Although they knew their chances were slim, their subconscious mind was telling them they still had a chance to survive if they fought hard enough.
