Ascension Of The Immortal Asura

Chapter 283 - Escape

John felt the Vice-Sect Leader's fingers burrow into his flesh, as blood began to appear. Despite his incredibly strong body, the Vice-Sect Leader's grip was piercing right through it. He winced in slight pain as her fingers dug deeper.

Before John could reply back, he felt his body be violently flung to the ruined mountain below. The speed at which his body was thrown was immense, and his momentum was far too great for him to stop it.

Boom!

His body slammed onto the mountain, and another explosive sound filled the valley. John's body began to burrow deep into the mountain, his incredible momentum and powerful body piercing through the mountain as if it was butter.

The mountain began to crumble from the force of the impact, as even more of it was destroyed. The dust finally settled, revealing John lying at the bottom of a massive crater. The mountain, which used to stand thousands of yards tall, was now half its former height.

At the center of it, only a crater could now be seen.

John laid there motionlessly, as he groaned in pain. The attack from the Vice-Sect Leader had been incredibly vicious, and would have killed any other person in his realm of cultivation. Not only that, but the force at which she had thrown him was enough to kill an early Meridian Forging cultivator, showing that she was now cognizant of his strong body, and had accounted for it in her attack.

Blood covered most of his body as John laid there motionlessly.

'Thankfully I had my Supreme Battle Art activated, or else the damage would have been worse.'

John made sure to make no movements, as he faked being unconscious.

"Really? You're going to try this one on me again? Do you think I'm stupid?" A voice from above filled his ears.

However, John continued to lay there motionlessly, not making a single move or sound.

"Fine then, since your body seems to be quite tough, I think I'll tie you up to a tree and practice some battle arts on you,' the Vice-Sect Leader continued.

John's eyes instantly snapped open as he heard this. If that happened, he was as good as dead.

"Fuck you, you crazy wench," John shouted out as he activated his Supreme Battle Art, Thunderflash Steps, and Limiter of Speed.

His body instantly reached an incredible speed as he pushed off the earth, causing it to shatter beneath him.

However, he was still at the bottom of the crater, with the Vice-Sect Leader floating in the sky above him. The tall walls of the crater surrounded him, making him completely trapped. The crater walls were hundreds of yards thick as well, making them incredibly sturdy.

His battle axe once again appeared in his hands as he dashed to the nearest corner of the crater. It was raised high above his head, preparing to cleave down on the thick crater wall to make an opening to escape.

The Vice-Sect Leader looked on at John's actions with amusement.

"You're trying to escape?" she scoffed. "The only attack you have that is strong enough to breach the walls of this crater is that lightning attack you unleashed earlier, and that takes far too long to channel in a situation like this."

However, John ignored her words as he reached his target.

Immortal Asura Transformation Art!

At the last moment, John activated his strongest ability, pushing his battle state to the absolute maximum. His power more than doubled, as his aura instantly towered into the sky.

Absolute shock appeared on the Vice-Sect Leaders face as she watched John cleave his axe down. Without any warning, his battle prowess more than doubled, and an incredible sinister and bloodthirsty aura radiated off of him.

She had never seen him use this battle art, and did not know he had it.

BOOM!

John's Sky Sundering Axe, strengthened further by the three profound Dao's infused into his attack, slammed against the crater wall. An absolutely massive explosion radiated outwards, as his attack pierced directly through the thick crater wall.

Those in the valleys below, who had gathered in great numbers to observe what the commotion was about, saw the half destroyed mountain once again explode outwards. From within that explosion, a lone cultivator dashed out, his speed absolutely incredible.

The Vice-Sect Leader's eyes narrowed as John escaped in an instant. It was far beyond her expectations, and she had not been ready for it.

Her body vanished as quickly dashed through the hole in the mountain John had made. She appeared on the other side in an instant, and quickly spread out her divine sense to find John.

"He's gone? That's not possible," the Vice-Sect Leader grumbled as she scanned the area. However, there truly was no sign of John's existence anywhere. Her divine sense continued to scan over the nearby area, as she enlarged it to her maximum range.

She was just about to give up, when she suddenly detected a slight fluctuation in space. Her body instantly appeared next to it as she inspected it.

"He used a spatial talisman? Does he think that's enough to get away from me?"

….

John's body instantly appeared in the Heavenly Lightning Sect courtyard, directly before the Heavenly Lightning Palace. During his endeavors earlier, he had purchased a few of these spatial talismans, just in case.

'I didn't think I would be using one this quickly. However, it's a good thing I'm so good at planning ahead.'

Many eyes turned to John, as his sudden appearance in the courtyard was eye-catching. They instantly recognized him, as his fame within the sect was growing to incredible levels. However, his body, which was completely covered in dried blood, looked quite gruesome, causing many to wonder what was going on.

"Do you think you can escape from me with a mere talisman?" the Vice-Sect Leader's voice entered his ears from behind.

John turned around instantly in panic, as he saw a hole in space quickly be formed. His eyes widened as he watched the Vice-Sect Leader begin to step out from a spatial portal she had created with her own power.
