The Demonized Monster of the Asura Path (Part Two)

Zhang Kuang, Yin Wugu, and Lin Haiyan were among the top experts on this year's Dragon Phoenix Ranking. The three of them working together could probably handle even Tenth Layer of the Divine Ability Stage expert. However, this monster completely overwhelmed them, leaving them powerless to fight back, which shows how powerful the monster was.

Asura (Demonization): Divine Ability Realm Third Layer. Note: Asura are creatures unique to the Asura Realm, warlike and bloodthirsty, but through an unknown force, they have Demonization and now possess terrifying power.

The information fed back by the Data Eye made Zhuge Xiang frown inwardly. Sure enough, this monster was Asura from the Asura Path. But what exactly was going on with this Demonization state?

How could a monster from the Asura Path be Demonization? And how could someone with only the cultivation level of the Divine Ability Realm Third Layer possess such terrifying power?

"Junior Brother Zhuge! Come quickly and help!" Zhuge Xiang appeared, and Lin Haiyan was standing next to him, noticed him and called out.

"Alright! I'll help you." Nodding, he temporarily suppressed his doubts, activated the Devourer's Treasure state, and then with a backhand swing, he sheathed the Azure Nether Blade and took out the True Martial Bow.

True Martial Bow (Two-star treasure artifact): Requires cultivation Divine Ability Stage First Layer. Attack +2800, Attack Range +2000 meters. Passive: 5% chance to deal true damage. Active: Myriad Arrows Volley, can transform Qi Energy into arrows, instantly firing ninety-nine sharp arrows. Each arrow's attack power is reduced by 50%. Durability and weight: 35.

The True Martial Bow's attack power is stronger than the Sword of Judgment, and with a 5% chance of inflicting true damage, it's truly a formidable weapon. The Wolf Fang Arrow is nocked, Piercing Arrow Skill is activated. It locks onto the Demonization Asura, displaying its full Arrow Intent, its aura as imposing as Hou Yi shooting down the sun.

"Roar!" With an unconscious roar, the Asura, locked onto by Zhuge Xiang's True Martial Bow, clearly felt the terrifying threat and abandoned Yin Wugu and the other two, instead rushing towards Zhuge Xiang.

"Myriad Phenomena All-Encompassing!" With a sharp cry, Lin Haiyan moved as nimbly as a cheetah, catching up with Asura. She wielded a pair of Mandarin Duck Rings, their movements dazzling and mesmerizing. Her continuous and dense attacks entangled Asura tightly.

"Lion's Roar!" Yin Wugu, his voice filled with the most powerful and masculine energy. Like a morning bell and evening drum, it caused the Asura to pause involuntarily. Sarira Skeleton Yin Wugu, was rumored to have come from the Buddhist Sect but later turned to the demonic path, hence the nickname "Sarira Skeleton."

Call out!

With Lin Haiyan and Yin Wugu, two experts at the Divine Ability Stage, joining forces to entangle him, it shouldn't be a problem to give Zhuge Xiang an opportunity to attack.

The dazzling arrow, like a shooting star from outer space, Piercing Arrow, inherently ignoring defense. This arrow struck Asura's shoulder hard, drawing blood. However, the blood dripping onto the ground hissed and emitted wisps of blue smoke, revealing its terrifying corrosive nature.

Asura Claw, unleashing a powerful sweep that sent Yin Wugu and Lin Haiyan flying. His blood-red eyes fixed on Zhuge Xiang, his True Martial Bow fully drawn once more. Even with only his fighting instincts remaining, Asura understood who posed the greatest threat.

With a roar, after sweeping away two people, Asura charged towards Zhuge Xiang again.

However, at that moment, Asura's body suddenly paused, and then his muscles began to twitch irregularly, as if several giant worms were wriggling under his skin.

"Asura Destruction Spear Art - Heaven Collapsing Earth Shattering!" At the same time, Zhang Kuang, who had already unleashed his Asura True Body, leaped high into the air, his Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear carrying the power of Thunderclap, smashing down fiercely towards the Asura. Its power was extraordinary.

Bang!

With a deafening roar, the Demonization Asura's body exploded instantly, scattering blood and flesh everywhere.

"Ding! You have defeated a level 3 Asura in the Divine Ability Realm Third Layer, gaining 2.05 million experience points."

Covered in blood, Zhang Kuang looked at the Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear in his hand, a look of surprise and doubt on his face. What happened? He had actually shattered that terrifyingly powerful monster in one move?

Yin Wugu and Lin Haiyan also looked surprised, but they quickly realized that the Demonization Asura was not simply killed by Zhang Kuang; he himself was about to explode.

"It seems that the so-called Demonization is inherently dangerous. Although it can enhance Asura's strength to a terrifying level in a short period of time, it will inevitably lead to Self-Detonation and death in the end?" Considering that Asura only had the cultivation of the Divine Ability Realm Third Layer, Zhuge Xiang pondered for a moment and understood.

"That monster just now, if I'm not mistaken, should be Asura. Its form must have been affected by some unknown power, becoming extremely violent. Although its strength increased greatly, its body couldn't withstand the violent power in the end and Self-Detonation and died," Yin Wugu said quickly, though surprised.

Yin Wugu's words made Zhang Kuang and Lin Haiyan nod in agreement.

"By the way, where did this monster come from?" Zhuge Xiang asked curiously, putting away the True Martial Bow.

A Demonization Asura? How could there be a Demonization Asura in this Asura Purgatory Diagram?

"We don't know either. We encountered Zhang Kuang first," Yin Wugu and Lin Haiyan both shook their heads, then their gazes fell on Zhang Kuang. They had also discovered the situation here and only arrived halfway.

"I was originally on that mountaintop comprehending the will of the Asura Path and perfecting my Asura True Body, but suddenly this monster appeared and attacked me. I couldn't defeat it, so I ran away. Later, I met Yin Wugu and Senior Sister Lin Haiyan," Zhang Kuang answered, as everyone's eyes fell on him.

"Could you take us to the place where you encountered this monster?" Yin Wugu asked with a hint of curiosity.

Zhuge Xiang and Lin Haiyan nodded in agreement. Human Heart was clearly curious that an ordinary Asura could possess such formidable fighting power.

"No problem," Zhang Kuang nodded, Zhang Kuang his own curiosity and desire to find out more. He then turned and led the way.

"To be able to gain immense power in a short time?" Watching Zhuge Xiang and the others leave, the other Cultivator naturally heard their conversation. They looked at each other, and many of them showed signs of interest.

Although the Demonization Asura just died from the violent trials, almost every Cultivator finds it hard to resist the temptation of immense power. That Asura was nothing but a brute; what if I had a way to control that violent power?

Despite the danger, due to the immense power, many Cultivator followed Zhuge Xiang and his group. The news of what happened spread like wildfire, drawing even more Cultivator to gather in this area.

Those who have already obtained the arm sleeve and are confident in their abilities have nothing better to do than come and take a look. As for those who have lost their arm sleeves, they have nothing to lose and are fearless. Since there are so many people here, perhaps they can take advantage of the chaos and obtain the arm sleeve as well?

"I encountered that monster right here," Zhang Kuang said from the mountaintop. The mountaintop was a Zhang Kuang, clearly left behind by the battle when Zhang Kuang met the monster.

Zhuge Xiang and the others searched around, Xiao Yue even jumped off Zhuge Xiang's shoulder, sniffing around.

As expected of a dog, Xiao Yue's voice rang out quickly. "Come and see, there's a cave here."

The sound of Xiao Yue rang out from about several hundred meters away. Zhuge Xiang and the others gathered over and, sure enough, there was a downward-sloping cave hidden under a patch of vines on the mountaintop. It would be impossible to find if one was not careful.

"Hmm, there's a faint smell of blood coming from here. No wonder it's a dog; its nose is incredibly sensitive."

Beside the cave, the Sarira Skeleton Yin Wugu, twitched its nose slightly and spoke, while also praising Xiao Yue and showing some envy.

How could one not envy a pet of the Fairy level? Moreover, Zhuge Xiang's strength largely stemmed from the Fairy's power, a fact that everyone could see.

"You bastard, you're the dog! Your whole family are dogs! I'm Ancient Divine Beast, the Moon Devouring Divine Dog!" Yin Wugu's praise was not a compliment to Xiao Yue at all, and she reacted with fierce cursing.

Pfft.

Xiao Yue, no bigger than a palm, landed on Zhuge Xiang's shoulder. Its barking didn't give off a fierce feeling; instead, it made people feel cute. Lin Haiyan couldn't help but burst out laughing, and Zhang Kuang's lips twitched as well.

"...", Yin Wugu looked bewildered, clearly not understanding what he had done to offend Xiao Yue, and muttered inexplicably, "Divine Dog? Isn't that still a dog?"

"You bastard! I challenge you to Duel! I'll stake my divine beast dignity on it!" he muttered in a low voice, causing Xiao Yue's fur to stand on end as he barked fiercely.

"Alright, alright, stop yelling. Let's go down and take a look. This cave is making me a little uneasy," Zhuge Xiang said, patting Xiao Yue's head and looking at the entrance of the cave with a somewhat solemn expression.

Zhuge Xiang's strength is beyond doubt. His solemn expression made Zhang Kuang, Yin Wugu, and Lin Haiyan beside him look much more serious.

"Don't worry, Junior Brother Zhuge, with the four of us working together, I believe we can protect ourselves without any problem. Just be careful," Lin Haiyan said to Zhuge Xiang. Then, the four of them and the dog carefully walked into the cave.

The cave entrance wasn't very big, barely enough for two people to pass through. However, the further down you went, the bigger the entrance became. Eventually, even four or five people could walk side by side without any problem. Moreover, as you went deeper, a strong smell of blood became increasingly clear.

At the cave entrance, many Cultivator gradually gathered. Cultivator looked at each other in bewilderment, and then filed in. If the sky were to fall, the tall ones would hold it up; if Zhuge Xiang and the others went in, there was no reason why they couldn't go in.

With this in mind, more and more people entered the cave. These participants in the Dragon Phoenix Ranking were all handsome young men; how could they admit to being much inferior to others?

What lies inside the cave? A mixture of anticipation and nervousness filled everyone's hearts... (To be continued...)
