The last Asura Sovereign

Chapter 138: Battle of the Bigwigs IX



The tip of scales on her armor were infused with the crimson hue so when Frideric hit her ribs, the crimson hue exploded outwards. Since she was the one who was controlling the crimson hue, she was also able to control the direction of the explosion.

A little bit of shockwave hit her but the explosion was mainly outwards, directed towards Frideric and he was almost engulfed with the explosion which was as high as seven meters almost creating a flame wall hiding Kumari behind it. Kumari got hurt on purpose because she could guess the limit of Frideric.

He was only at the eighth stage and with her armor and strength, she was confident she would be able to take on the full punch from Frideric. She was only wary of the soul attack from Liu Ming, as for the body path cultivator she was even confident about taking a hit from Alaric. At this moment the five arrows in the air suddenly congealed into two arrows.

The arrows were a bit bigger than the previous ones and the crimson hue was more concentrated on the tips. This time the abstract characters on the tip were clearly visible giving out a lethal aura. One arrow flew at high speed towards Liu Ming who was preparing another soul attack. Sensing the danger, Liu Ming hurriedly canceled his attack and suffered a backlash making his already pale face paler.

He instantly took out his defense talisman and created a brown barrier around him. This did not diminish the sense of danger he felt so he took out the remaining defense talisman and all the remaining lower-grade talismans. Only after using all his talismans did he feel a bit safer. He was about to let out a sigh of relief when the flame arrow swiftly approached him. The arrow cracked the first brown barrier easily and clashed with the second.

The second barrier was holding on when Liu Ming once again felt a sense of danger. The arrow exploded and the explosion tore apart all the remaining barriers created from low-grade talismans like paper. Liu Ming was blasted away by the explosion but the sense of danger didn’t decrease but increased instead as if bells were ringing all over his head.

He was sent flying away by the explosion and he couldn’t control his body but he still used his soul qi to create a defense barrier around him. When he was in the air flying, he saw a streak of fire flying towards him at rapid speed. This streak of fire approached him in an instant as if it were locked onto him. He couldn’t change his direction because of the backlash and the only thing he could do was increase his soul qi into defense.

The arrow hit him piercing the soul qi barrier and piercing him right in the middle of the chest. The crimson hue had burned the barrier of soul qi easily and when it pierced Liu Ming’s chest, it only went halfway through his chest before it was stopped by his spine. Feeling the hot arrow stopped by the spine Liu Ming felt a bit relieved.

If the arrow had swerved to the left by an inch, it would have penetrated his heart and burned it. The arrow was burning the flesh on his chest and his spine, he would be able to heal it with a few pills as long as his heart was not completely destroyed. He felt he was lucky and escaped from sure death. A smile crept on his face. At this moment the arrow exploded, shattering his spine and parting his chest into two halves, his head flew away with a smile on his face, and a few bones and flesh were scattered as pieces.

But the thing Liu Ming had worried most didn’t happen, among the scattered flesh and bones, his heart was strangely intact. Everything of Liu Ming rained down to the ground concluding the life and legacy of the Patriarch of the Ming clan. All of this happened within the span of five seconds. As for the two cultivators from the Visigoth clan, Frideric had barely come out of the explosion when he saw Liu Ming blowing up and Alaric was still held down by the cauldron.

He was on the opposite side of Frideric and Liu Ming and he could just watch helplessly. The cauldron would occasionally spew crimson-hued flames onto him and when he punched the cauldron, the most he could do was only make it vibrate. He could also only watch Liu Ming from when the first arrow hit him and the second one blew him up.

Previously when the soul attack from Liu Ming had hit her, the flame armor negated some of the attack but it did hurt her soul a little bit. She was not completely unscathed but her soul was stronger than those at the peak of the violet soul realm. If not for the lack of offensive soul technique, she would have been a dreadful enemy for the invaders.

After taking a hit from Liu Ming she had purposefully diminished her divine sense on two fire arrows and the changing shapes of flame was all her doing. She wanted to make them think that their plan was working so that they would lower their guard down. When Alaric had attacked the cauldron with full force, she had purposefully made her face seem pale so it looked like she got hurt by backlash.

When Frideric had attacked her, she placed the scales imbued with crimson hue on the point of impact so when he punched her, the explosion affected him and the force from the punch was also lessened. The only thing that bruised her ribs was not the aura but the force of impact, almost all the aura was blocked by the armor. So for her, the wound was just a moral one, with a little bit of qi, she would be able to heal it in no time. If the aura had infiltrated her bone, it would be a bit troublesome as she had to waste a lot of her qi but since it was only the impact, the wound would heal itself without qi in an hour or two, and with qi, it wouldn’t even take a minute.

The only hard part for her was keeping a poker face so her plan couldn’t be seen through. If not for her being wary of what the Thapa clan had prepared, she wouldn’t have bothered to use such a low-level scheme on those weak cultivators. But she had eliminated an annoying pest.

Any soul cultivators were annoying because when you fight in the group a random soul attack could send you into a daze which would be fatal. As for the Visigoth clan cultivators ‘hehe’ she smiled inwardly.
