The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3168 - 3163: War of Asura_1

The tactical advantage of the Asura Soul Body in combat was simply too significant for Yang Chen to ignore. He realized he could not let such a golden chance slip through his fingers.

If you have the nerve to summon it, then I certainly have the courage to seize it.

With lightning-fast reflexes, Yang Chen immediately activated his Necromancy technique.

"Come to me!"

The High Myriad God Asura had only just been manifested by Xuan Zhen, who was already preparing to retract it. He didn't dare leave it exposed before Yang Chen for long. However, by the time he attempted to pull it back, the window of opportunity had closed.

A surge of black energy erupted from Yang Chen’s Necromancy, enveloping the Asura Soul Body. After a violent shudder, the entity turned around, swung its massive limb, and charged directly at its former master, Xuan Zhen.

Xuan Zhen’s scalp went numb with terror upon realizing his Asura Soul Body had been usurped. "Second Brother, save me!" he shrieked in desperation.

Xuan Jie ground his teeth in frustration, spitting out a single word: "Trash!"

As he spoke, a chilling shout escaped his lips, and a massive Asura Soul Body suddenly materialized around his own form. While it was also an Asura, this particular summon was clearly of a different caliber. The moment it appeared, it launched a devastating palm strike.

The High Myriad God Asura under Yang Chen’s control was sent reeling back several paces by the force of the blow. Its ethereal form flickered dangerously, looking as though it might disintegrate at any second.

Yang Chen was gripped by sudden shock and intense curiosity. His Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Sword had been unable to pierce the High Myriad God Asura, yet this new summon had nearly shattered it with a single strike. Even accounting for the fact that Yang Chen’s control was less refined than Xuan Zhen’s, the raw power of this new Asura Soul Body was undeniable.

As his mind raced, Yang Chen felt a pang of regret. A perfect opening to eliminate Xuan Zhen had vanished now that Xuan Jie had intervened.

Xuan Zhen remained visibly shaken. Remembering how close he had come to death at Yang Chen's hands, a cold shiver ran through him. He understood now that he could not afford to provoke Yang Chen recklessly, even with his Second Brother standing by his side.

"Stay back and stay quiet. Do not interfere until the absolute last moment, and stop causing me trouble!" Xuan Jie snapped.

Chastened, Xuan Zhen didn't dare argue. Despite the harsh scolding, he became remarkably submissive.

Xuan Jie’s gaze locked onto Yang Chen, his freezing aura intensifying. "So, you actually possess the techniques to manipulate the Asura of my Sect? It seems your death today is a necessity."

"If you are aware of that, then why would you risk revealing this Asura Soul Body?" Yang Chen asked, his eyes narrowing.

He immediately attempted to use Necromancy again, hoping to shroud the new Asura. To his dismay, the technique failed to take hold. Xuan Jie’s Asura remained unmoved, completely ignoring his commands, which was a stark contrast to his previous success with the High Myriad God Asura.

"Hmph, save your energy. My Heaven Non-Action Asura is among the elite summons of my Sect; it is already bound to my very heart and soul. To control it, you would have to kill me first. Even then, the Heaven Non-Action Asura would simply self-destruct—and besides, you lack the strength to kill me." Xuan Jie’s voice was like ice.

Yang Chen frowned, having already harbored such suspicions. Xuan Jie was no fool; he wouldn't just hand over an Asura. If he was willing to bring it out, it was because he was certain it couldn't be turned against him.

"Your Heaven Non-Action Asura might be formidable, but you are still clearly wary of my ability to control your Sect's Soul Bodies," Yang Chen sneered.

A flash of aggression crossed Xuan Jie’s eyes, though he quickly masked it. "Wary? Ridiculous."

"Consider this: Xuan Zhen’s Asura Soul Body was previously bested by me, leaving him able to summon only one. You, however, surely command many Asuras, yet you only manifest this single one. Why is that? Don't try to claim this is your only summon," Yang Chen mocked.

Xuan Jie’s face darkened significantly.

"It is because you can only summon one Asura Soul Body that is immune to my Necromancy. Your other spirits don't dare show their faces. If they were summoned, they would instantly become mine, wouldn't they?" Yang Chen said deliberately.

Xuan Jie’s expression tightened, a hidden fire of rage burning within. The Spirit God Race was defined by their immense pride, and Yang Chen’s words were a direct assault on that dignity. What stung most was that every word Yang Chen spoke was the absolute truth.

Unlike Xuan Zhen, however, Xuan Jie remained composed and showed no sign of intimidation. He laughed coldly. "Yang Chen, you are correct. I have many Asura Soul Bodies that I cannot summon right now. However, this single Heaven Non-Action Asura is more than enough to handle you. It seems you need a lesson in just how powerful my Asura truly is."

The provocation in Xuan Jie’s voice was chilling. As he finished speaking, the Heaven Non-Action Asura made its move. Fleshy wings sprouted from its back as it took to the air at incredible speed, brandishing a massive blade as it dove toward Yang Chen’s captured High Myriad God Asura.

Yang Chen commanded the High Myriad God Asura to meet the charge, and the two clashed in brutal proximity. Upon impact, the High Myriad God Asura was forced back, its essence trembling. Yang Chen hastily pulled it back, realizing a direct confrontation was suicidal. At this rate, Xuan Jie’s summon would tear his captured Asura apart.

But if he remained passive, the Heaven Non-Action Asura would turn its blade on him. Given its terrifying momentum, even he would be forced to retreat.

"Suppress!"

Without hesitation, Yang Chen launched his Five Elements Turn Heaven Palm, the massive strike descending from the heavens. The weight of the palm slammed into the Heaven Non-Action Asura’s frame. Knowing a single strike wouldn't be enough to pin such a beast, Yang Chen immediately followed up with a second palm.

The combined power of the two strikes, bolstered by his current Cultivation level, placed immense pressure on the Asura. Seeing this, Xuan Jie’s face turned grim. With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed a barrage of Heavenly Xuan Thunderballs toward Yang Chen.

Yang Chen couldn't ignore the incoming projectiles. He moved the High Myriad God Asura into position to act as a shield. It was clear that while the captured soul body couldn't beat the Heaven Non-Action Asura, it was perfectly capable of absorbing these lightning attacks.

"So, the Asuras of the Spirit God Race can't even withstand their own techniques?" Yang Chen muttered to himself.
