hearing the words of the black-haired youth, the now unstable evil spirit snorted, why should he follow the plan of that bastard he thought, somehow despite him now being the one with the highest realm in the group, the evil spirit felt threatened the most by the black-haired youth.

not only it had a strong murderous aura which is unusual in the members of the young generation, but also even with his high soul cultivation he couldn''t see through him, and that made alarms ring for him.

"humph, forget about those women, help me kill that bastard first, i saw him using yang radiance earlier, so he is just another dual cultivator!".

"roaaar!", the giant undead followed the orders of the evil spirit and charged towards aster.

"boom!", but even before he could approach him, he was blown away by felicia''s punch and the giant spear created by camila, its giant body landed at the other side of the room creating a small tremor.no?v(el)b\\jnn

the girls then rushed towards it, leaving aster to deal with his own enemy, the evil spirit on the other hand gritted its teeth, even if he watched the girls''s prowess display earlier, he didn''t think they would be strong enough to stop his better creation, in which he used the only remaining piece of his physical body.

which made it possible for a void manipulation level undead to be born.

''what the hell, are modern cultivators this strong... fuck, i need to get the thing in the center of this place before taking my leave, or i will be suppressed by the modern experts once i''m out'', he thought.

the evil spirit had no way to know, that mortal transcending realm cultivators, normally don''t have the strength to clash head on with a void manipulation realm being, it''s just that camila and felicia are abnormally strong.

the giant undead roared, the attack sent him flying and some of its black bones cracked due to the spear casted by camila but they recovered in a matter of seconds, not only that, the undead hit the ground with its fist and a crack appeared from which smaller undead poured in.

those were the ones that formed a sea of undead that blocked the path in one of the previous rooms, apparently the giant undead had the ability to control the weaker undead, despite it only having body path cultivation, instead of soul path cultivation.

"nine sea''s sword, splitting wave!", a tsunami of water spirit energy suddenly impacted the swarm of undead, splitting into half, once the dust settled up, the figure of a tall black-haired woman wielding a blue jade sword was revealed.

"i can''t kill that guy, but that doesn''t mean i''m going to be a burden, humph", nerissa waved her sword and a wave of water spirit energy and sword intent destroyed a whole section of the swarm of undead.

"camila and miss felicia, you two deal with the giant, leave these bunch to us", aria appeared next to nerissa, the ground near to her was covered in ice, she beckoned and then the leftover water spirit energy used by nerissa was turned into ice peaks that pierced tons of undead.

"don''t leave me out of the fun", tiana who was descending from a high altitude, smacked her war spear on the ground and flash of yellow light with blue borders, hit a bunch of undead sending them flying at such a high speed towards the wall that they exploded into little pieces of broken bones due to the impact, she used her ability to repel things which is the contrary to what felicia can do.

while camila was pushing the giant undead with huge spears she created out of thin air, felicia saw her daughter working together with others and she smiled, as the stole a gaze of the other side of the battlefield, where aster was facing the evil spirit alone with that usual confident smiling expression which was characteristic of him.

''to think you changed that stubborn little girl, it seems following you was for the best~'', she thought, before a black vortex appeared below her.

"boom!", the next thing the giant undead knew was that, a little weak-looking woman punched him and once again, he who is proud of its strong bones, and huge physical strength was forced to the ground.

"rooar!", the undead roared of anger letting waves of blue flames radiate from its body, but they couldn''t do anything to the two women that were standing proud like goddesses of war in front of it, anything that tried to harm felicia was dragged, crushed and devoured by the black vortex she created whenever she used the ability of her energy constitution, as for camila, her body dazzled with a pretty metallic light, making her look like a living treasure, imperishable, towards the corroding capacity of yin.

...

but this wasn''t the usual armor, which the girls besides nerissa had already seen before, instead of the bright golden color of the paragon body, it was dark golden colored, not to mention this looked more menacing, as if its purpose wasn''t to protect like normal, but to destroy.

the design was wilder and threatening, it also gave off a dreading aura, especially because everything near it started to dissolve, this was the result of aster injecting annihilation into the manifestation of the paragon body, or as he people of the azure sky planet called it, "the golden reaper".

aster didn''t have to move, he just ordered the armor to destroy the flags and its giant arms moved to smack them away, naturally all the evil spirits along with the flags were erased from existence, since in this state the armor was covered by annihilation.

the evil spirit saw his precious spirits being destroyed left and right and his eyes became bloodshot, one interesting thing about evil spirits is that they feel the urge to destroy everything in their path.

since they form due to negative feelings, yin and fragments of souls of the dead, in places like abandoned battlefields, when the dead aren''t properly buried, they only exist to bring calamity to the living, and thus their murderous aura is incredibly strong.

"raaa!", the jaws of the evil spirit dislocated and then with an open mouth which was easily trice the size of a normal person, it roared letting out a blood curling scream accompanied by murderous aura.

that is a known technique of ghost kings, which are said to be on par with soul kings, death roar, a sound attack which injects murderous aura into the body of the target through the ears, killing it on the spot.

aster left the protection of the giant armor which was wildly crushing the evil spirits and the red flags, when he uses this form, he loses the defensive capacities of the armor, in exchange for an abnormal offensive power, with the exception of the ten seconds of invincibility of course.

but he wasn''t relying on that to face the attack of the pseudo-ghost king in front of him, murderous aura can only be stopped with either soul energy or an equally strong murderous aura, and though aster''s soul energy is undoubtedly strong, his limit is around the middle stage of the genesis manifestation realm.

so normally he would need to use the giant manifestation of the paragon body to compete with anything stronger than that, but this evil spirit had to commit the serious mistake of relying in murderous aura as its main offensive way.

aster smirked and then gray mist started pouring out of his body, as the milliseconds passed the tone of it became darker and darker, until the mist had completely turned black inked.

the attack of the evil spirit met with that black mist and it surprisingly stopped in cold, just like that, the attack of a void manipulation evil spirit was rendered useless.

but that''s not the most surprising thing about it, but the fact that the previously angry and reasonless evil spirit was now trembling, the fear returned his clarity!

"y-you, what kind of atrocities have you committed to have such a horrifying murderous aura... no forget about that, why haven''t the heavens destroyed you with tribulation lightning!", he shouted.

a bloody evil spirit who has killed countless of people was feeling fear, over that black mist which was now enveloping aster, giving him mysteriously attractive but dangerous aura, in fact even his hair which is already black due to his drage bloodline, has been painted darker, but his golden eyes were as clear as crystals, meaning that he hasn''t lost himself in slaughter, to the surprise of the evil spirit.

"what the hell are you, how can you keep your sanity after having done so many atrocities!", he shouted.

aster closed and opened his hand a few times, this black mist originated from his body, more accurately from his dantian and if you went deeper, it came from the black book in which the twins lived.

but it was only stored there, he knew the origin of this ominous black mist, which is an even more advanced version of murderous aura, exclusive to those who have committed unspeakable atrocities.

''not bad'', thought aster to himself, before he glared at the evil spirit who actually backed off, just by being started at by the current aster.

a purely spiritual being like him, was naturally suppressed by things that had strong impact on the soul, that''s why though a ghost king is considered equally strong as a soul king, the first one can''t never rebel against the latter, unless it surpasses the transcending realms in the energy path, which is the counter of the soul path of course.

but undead can''t cultivate in the energy path, as they aren''t natural beings and so they don''t have access to the privileges the heavens granted to the living.
