Everlasting Battle Will, Undying and Imperishable (Part Two)
Since he had doubts, he asked them. This time, Zhuge Xiang did not interfere with the battle. So, after watching the fight end, Zhuge Xiang walked out openly.
A powerful battle intent, comparable to that of immortals and demons, emerged from his body, like a tidal wave. Although he might be able to revive in this Asura Path, it would be better to demonstrate his strength.
During the battle, Zhuge Xiang and Mo Lingna watched from the sidelines. The Asura King showed no unusual expression. In the Asura Path, battle is sacred. When two people fight, almost no one will interfere. However, after the battle ended, as Zhuge Xiang walked over, his body radiating an incomparably powerful fighting spirit, the Asura King looked at Zhuge Xiang with a sense of awe.
The Asura King was a rare powerhouse in the Asura Path, but Zhuge Xiang's fighting spirit had reached the Immortal-Demon level, just like the Asura Emperor Asura King. There was a world of difference between them. Therefore, seeing Zhuge Xiang approaching with his powerful aura, the Asura King became even more respectful.
Before Zhuge Xiang could speak, the Asura King stepped forward, bowed to him, and respectfully said, "Asura King Man Ping greets Your Majesty the Asura Emperor Zhuge Xiang. May I ask what Your Majesty commands?"
Seeing the Asura King's respectful demeanor, Zhuge Xiang nodded to himself, confirming his suspicions. The law of the strong being respected applies in every world.
But the reason that Female Rakshasa treated me so badly before was because I violated a taboo that the Asura Path absolutely forbids—interfering in someone else's battle, right?
"Man Ping, is it? We two only recently arrived in the Asura Path, so we're not very familiar with Asura Path rules. Do you have time to explain them to us?" Zhuge Xiang said, his words polite, but his tone lacked Asura Path. The Asura Path was a world of slaughter, and it had no interest in pleasantries. If you had something to say, you should say it directly.
"Since you've just arrived in the Asura Path, I naturally have time to explain things to you," Man Ping said upon hearing Zhuge Xiang's words. Having already possessed the strength of a Man Ping Asura Emperor so soon after arriving in the Asura Path, Man Ping's expression became even more respectful. He carefully and meticulously recounted the affairs of the Asura Path to Zhuge Xiang and Mo Lingna.
From Man Ping's words, Zhuge Xiang and Mo Lingna finally gained a general understanding of the Asura Path. They also suddenly understood the woman's reaction earlier.
The Asura Path is a world of slaughter. In the Three Realms and Six Paths, as long as one harbors a Battle Will, after death, one's soul will be summoned by the Asura Path Will, causing one to enter the Asura Path and continue the path of fighting and conquering. In a sense, the Asura Path is like the Ghost Realm, also a world of the dead.
However, the beings in the Ghost Realm are all ghosts. Even those who reach the level of Ghost King do not have a physical body. But the Asura Path is different. Souls with Battle Will will be reassembled into an Asura Body after entering the Asura Path and become formal Asura.
Similarly, souls outside the Asura Path can reunite into Asura Path Asura Body and live as Asura as long as they possess the Battle Will. The same applies within the Asura Path.
No matter how fierce the battle, as long as your Battle Will remains, the Asura Path will reshape your physical body. Therefore, as long as your Battle Will remains, Asura can be resurrected endlessly in the Asura Path. Of course, only the physical body is resurrected; any treasures you carry will be stolen.
The Asura Path, though capable of infinite resurrection, requires an undying Battle Will. Therefore, while countless beings Asura Path beings, all are inherently warlike. Thus, since Ancient Times, battles within the Asura Path have been considered sacred, not to be interfered with or disturbed by others...
"I see." After the explanation, Zhuge Xiang and Mo Lingna didn't really remember much, only two points: first, battle is sacred and no one is allowed to interfere; second, the Everlasting Battle Will and Undying and Imperishable.
"This Asura Path is truly an anomaly among the Three Realms and Six Paths. As long as the Everlasting Battle Will, one can never perish?" After Man Ping's explanation, Zhuge Xiang and Mo Lingna were deeply shocked by the idea of being able to resurrect infinitely, but upon closer reflection, it made perfect sense.
When Zhuge Xiang first joined the Asura Sect, he already knew the Asura Sect's mission: to cultivate Battle Will so that even after death, one could enter the Asura Path and continue the path of battle and conquest.
The Asura of the Asura Path are all beings with physical bodies. After death, they enter the Asura Path and gain a physical body, which in itself is a form of resurrection.
As long as one remains within the Asura Path, and as long as the Everlasting Battle Will, one can Undying and Imperishable. Based on this, Zhuge Xiang finally understood why the Asura Path was the world with the most intense atmosphere of fighting and battle among the Three Realms and Six Paths.
"Although you have just arrived in the Asura Path, my lord, your strength is astonishing. You are capable of being called an emperor. I wonder if you know about the Sacred War of the Asura Path, which occurs once every thousand years?" After explaining the general situation of the Asura Path to Zhuge Xiang, Man Ping hesitated for a moment, then suddenly seemed to think of something and asked Zhuge Xiang.
"Sacred War that happens once every thousand years? What is that?" Upon hearing Man Ping's words, which were tinged with longing, Zhuge Xiang slightly taken aback. He then asked, his instincts telling him that this so-called Sacred War must be something extraordinary.
"Reporting to Your Excellency, the Asura Path is permeated with a war spirit that influences the character of all Asura, making them increasingly warlike. The war spirit emanating from battles between Asura also permeates the entire Asura Path. Therefore, the Sages of the Asura Path of Ancient Times Heaven and Earth behind a precept: to prevent the war spirit of the Asura Path from drying up, the Asura Path must hold a Sacred War every thousand years to maintain the war spirit in the Heaven and Earth."
"So that's how the fighting spirit of the Asura Path comes about?" Upon hearing Man Ping's words, Zhuge Xiang suddenly realized.
The space of the Asura Path was filled with a maddening aura of battle intent, which Zhuge Xiang already knew. However, he did not expect that the battle intent in the Asura Path was emanating from the battles of billions of Asura host.
The fighting spirit between Heaven and Earth and earth fueled the Asura host' fighting spirit, and the Asura host's fighting spirit permeated the air and merged with the fighting spirit between Heaven and Earth. Thus, it seems that the fighting spirit of the Asura Path itself and the fighting spirit emanating from billions of Asura complement each other.
The once-in-a-millennium Sacred War was actually to replenish the fighting spirit of the Asura Path itself and prevent the fighting spirit of the Heaven and Earth from drying up.
"How exactly was that thousand-year Sacred War conducted?" The fact that it could fill the void of fighting spirit in the Asura Path suggests that this so-called Sacred War must have been incredibly grand and massive. This piqued Zhuge Xiang's interest.
I came to the Asura Path for battle and slaughter, and it seems I've just stumbled upon this thousand-year Sacred War? It's true, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.
"Reporting to Your Excellency," although Zhuge Xiang knew nothing about the Asura Path, his strength, enough to be considered emperor, was sufficient to earn Zhuge Xiang Man Ping's respect and deference. "The Millennium Sacred War will be jointly organized by the nine Asura Great Emperors of our Asura Sect. At that time, each Asura Great Emperor will be given one hundred unique Sacred War Jade Talisman. The war will last for half a month. Anyone who collects all nine Sacred War Jade Talisman can ascend the Sacred Mountain of the Asura Path, Sole Dominance Mountain, to participate in the Sacred War."
" In the Asura Path, there are Nine Great Emperor- level powerhouses, each issuing one hundred tokens. You need to collect all nine tokens to be qualified to ascend the Sacred Mountain's Sole Dominance Peak. In other words, at most only one hundred Asura can ascend there?" Zhuge Xiang heard a lot of information from Man Ping's words.
The Demon Realm has thirteen Great Emperor level powerhouses, while the Asura Path has nine. Moreover, the strongest in the Asura Path is at the Great Emperor level; are there no Great Sage level?
"On the Sacred Mountain, Nine Great Emperor will personally observe the Sacred War. The top ten will receive treasures at the level of Half-Demon Artifact, while the champion will receive a true Demon Artifact. Moreover, if the strength displayed during the Sacred War can win the favor of the Great Emperor, the benefits will be even greater." As he said this, Man Ping's face also showed a look of longing. Clearly, he would also participate in this so-called Sacred War.
"Oh? Nine Great Emperor are personally watching the battle? And the champion will receive a real Demon Artifact as a reward?" Upon hearing this, Zhuge Xiang smiled, his heart also filled with excitement.
Zhuge Xiang came to the Asura Path for the sake of fighting, so he naturally wouldn't miss this Sacred War. Those who ascended the Sacred Mountain's Sole Dominance Peak were all renowned powerhouses of the Asura Path. These powerhouses, Elite level, and even gold level, not only meant more Experience Points, but also a higher drop rate, meaning they could get good items.
Furthermore, the top ten in the Sacred War already possessed treasures at the Half-Demon Artifact level, which was icing on the cake for Zhuge Xiang.
"Are there any Half-Demon Artifact -level rewards for the top ten?" Thinking of Half-Demon Artifact, Zhuge Xiang realized that he possessed quite a few Half-Demon Artifact treasures.
The Bull Demon God Armor, the Sea Calming Divine Needle, the Immortal Slaying Sword, and the Mysterious Dragon Body are all Half-Demon Artifacts. There's also the Yin Yang Demonic Rings, which, although not Half-Demon Artifact, is no less valuable.
"I have several Half-Demon Artifact Half-Immortal Artifact. Shouldn't I get a real Demon Artifact too? I've never seen a real Demon Artifact before. What level is it like?" Thinking of his several Half-Demon Artifacts, Zhuge Xiang felt a renewed longing for a real Demon Artifact.
In the Cultivation World, Ying Qianshan claims his Golden God is Immortal Artifact- level existence. Whether this is true remains to be verified, but in all honesty, the Golden God certainly deserves the title of Immortal Artifact. In the Cultivation World, how could someone who wields power at the Immortal-Demon level not be considered Immortal Artifact?
