Asura Conqueror

Chapter 23: A Peek Into the Past

A man with vermillion hair and a man with black hair with yellow streaks in the middle stood in the air, together with a few heavenly beauties beside them.

They were currently surrounded by a couple of people who were looking at the man with vermillion hair as if he was a treasure.

They were above a lush green forest with tall mountains at a distance. The clouds were few and the sky was clear.

The place they were in had extremely dense mana but it was only normal for the people who were here. This is the density of the mana they were used to.

One of the men in the crowd called out. "Lord of Destruction, have you thought about it? some of us are getting impatient."

Another chimed in "That's right. We can't wait forever. You are already the master of destruction. What you found is something new. It's only right for you to share your discovery with us."

"Shameless!" One of the girls standing beside the vermillion colored haired man cried out. "This is the fruit of his hard work. He discovered it so all of you can just fuck off!"

"That's one poisonous tongue you got there." A man looked at her with lascivious eyes.

"Why in your bald head are you even asking me to share it. I never said anything about sharing it with you bastards. This new type of magic is something I comprehended. Have you ever helped me with this? No! So as my wife said, fuck off!" The vermillion haired man's eyes glowed.

This was something he worked so hard to create, to comprehend. He would never share it with anyone aside from his close friend and his wives.

A laugh came from one of the crowd. "It's funny how you think you have a choice."

"Why don't I just smash your big nose you piece of cow shit! You call yourself a Lord, but you look like someone with severe mental disease. What? Why are you looking at me that way? Have you ingested a divine poison?" The man with black hair with yellow streaks in the middle mocked.

He turned his head and looked at another person in the crowd.

He continued, "And you, I'd like to tell you to get your head out of your arse but it's too far deep that it goes out of your top and back up again in an infinite loop."

A few people wanted to laugh. This guy has always been known for having this kind of mouth.

But they controlled themselves.

The person who got pointed out looked at his surroundings. He glared daggers at the man who just insulted him. This was extremely humiliating.

"You!" He shouted.

"What me?" The man had a proud look on his face.

"Alright, that's enough." A middle-aged man who had a kind expression on his face spoke.

"If you're going to ask me about this new spell then you could just fuck off. You aren't fooling anyone with that kind face of yours. We all know how disgusting you are!" The man with vermillion hair smirked.

The eyes of the man beside him lit up. He hurriedly added, "Yes we all do. We all know how you like to get it down with horses. And yes ladies and gentlemen 'horses'. Not one, but plenty."

The people could no longer hold it in and started chuckling.

The man's kind face disappeared. There was a rumor that had spread about him and horses when he was seen naked in their area. Though it's not true, no one would believe him.

"Remember, we tried to make this peaceful but you just had to choose the hard way." The 'kind' faced man said before stepping back.

They were all wary. No one wanted to attack first.

A few hours ago they all saw a pillar of scarlet-colored light flashed in the sky above the Lord of Destruction's palace. It was a spell they have never seen before.

They came to the conclusion that the Lord of Destruction invented or discovered something.

This is why they all gathered around. Another reason is that they are not stupid enough to get into a fight with the Lord of Destruction. They were Lords themselves but they were still afraid of what the Lord of Destruction can bring to the battlefield.

"If you're really going to be adamant about this, then we'll have no choice but to fight!" One person in the crowd yelled.

The Lord of Destruction looked at his wives. They smiled at him and nodded. He also looked at his buddy and the woman beside him.

He turned his head back towards the crowd and shouted one word with a thunderous voice.

"COME!"

------------------

Marcus was no longer sitting in a cross-legged position. He was clutching his head. Voices of people were ringing in his mind. He could not see their faces as it was shrouded. He felt like voices of higher beings were shouting at him, but in reality, they were only talking.

He had already finished his breakthrough.

He skipped a level and was now a rank 7 Elite.

As he finished though, the stone was now closer to his soul. He felt like it was trying to be one with it.

Unclear images started flooding in his mind like a waterfall.

He suddenly found himself in the body of someone else, though he was purely a spectator. He couldn't do anything but watch.

Time went on. The talking stopped and the fighting started. Spells were thrown that even Marcus had never seen in the Heavenly Realm before. Someone turned into a gigantic dragon that overshadows the dragon race in the heavenly realm, another called on the stars, and more which he could hardly explain.

As the fight reached its climax, Marcus felt his heart tearing when he saw the scene where the people around him were drenched in blood.

He couldn't see their faces, but somewhere deep in his heart, he longed to be with them again.

The fight ended. The group of people managed to escape and everything dimmed.

Marcus was out of breath. His head was in pain. He clutched it as tears unconsciously rolled down his face. This was not due to physical pain but emotional.

This went on for a few minutes before Marcus stared at the ceiling.

He brokethrough but he wasn't as happy as he thought he would be.

Marcus didn't know how much time had passed but he finally stood up and went to his room.

'As Nexus said, one step at a time. I'll get my answers about this sooner or later. There's no point in racking my brains for one. I'd better cultivate some more after this.' Marcus thought as he hopped into the shower. Taking a bath is something he always likes to do.

----------------

The next morning Marcus got out of bed. He didn't sleep and just cultivated. Sleep isn't something most people in the Heavenly Realm need. Once you reach Asura Preparation stage you could go on for days without sleep. For lower rank, there are pills which one can talk to be able to stay awake for long periods of time. But still, if they had the chance to sleep, then they will.

Marcus used those pills. They were nothing special and only used common ingredients. Plus there was a stockpile of them in the storage room.

He went to the living room and saw Eva drinking tea with Nexus.

"Morning guys," Marcus said as he walked towards them.

"Thank you for the breakthrough." Nexus smiled. He is now a rank 7 Elite too.

He would grow stronger as Marcus grows stronger. Once the chains are broken that's the only time when Marcus' cultivation won't affect his and he would have to start training independently.

"I prepared tea. Try it, little bro." Eva said as he handed a cup with a platter below to him.

"Big Sis, when will you make your breakthrough? I feel like you're already at the peak of rank 1." Marcus sat down on the couch.

"Yes, those pills and potions helped a lot. I can also see that I've gotten a lot prettier too." Eva cupped her face. Which girl wouldn't want to look more beautiful if they had the chance.

"There will be a lot of handsome men who'll be courting you in the future." Marcus joked.

Eva smiled as she looked at Nexus who was suddenly whistling.

"So Big Sis, where's the restaurant?" Marcus asked.

"It's close to the hotel. The food isn't expensive and it's not that classy but it's incredibly delicious. But before I forget, let's first go to the hotel." Eva happily said. It's been quite a long time since she has eaten there.

-------------------

While the three were happily chatting, 2 commanders are currently in a pinch.

They still hadn't called their boss. They knew that this news was bound to spread right away, since a lot of people at the party were famous. One of them had thoughts of running away. The other finally steeled himself and started dialing the father of Nikolo.

They knew that there is a huge chance that they would get killed.

"Hello." A man from the other side sleepily answered.

"Sir, there has been a slight mishap." One of the Commander said.

The man rubbed his eyes "What? What did my son do this time? If it's one of his usual activities just cover it up. You know what to do."

The commander cleared his throat "Actually sir, your son was kidnapped."
