Chapter 131 - Asura Golem (2/2)

”It can use spatial void shifting! It can also evade both qi and spiritual sense!” Yan Zaizen deduced with a startled gaze. Without hesitation, he stepped back towards the stairs. He wasn't the only one. The others quickly followed, some even before him, their pupils constricted, and their minds trembling with a profound sensation of crisis.

The Asura Golem's rampage didn't stop at that. It continued to swing its blade viciously, aiming for the weakest and slowest of the group as if on purpose. Those at the Origin Core Realm held no hope of survival. The Asura Golem would shift to their side from the spatial void and with a single swipe of its blade, they'd turn into mincemeat, but for those stronger, they'd be pierced through silently and explode as if a bomb detonated inside their bodies.

Several seconds passed.

That's all the time passed since everyone decided to retreat. However, over a hundred individuals from various forces were slain within that very brief period of time. Many tried crushing their talismans by the Xiantu Emperor when they were targeted, but doing so at that time was simply too slow. Luckily, as long as they retreated to the stairs, the Asura Golem didn't strike. As if it was outside its range of action.

Tang Li's brows were drenched in cold sweat. He could've sworn that the Asura Golem only needed to glance at him to kill him. ”What the hell?! How strong is that thing?!” He shouted out, his voice suffused with intense panic.

Guàn Cui's eyes were filled with fear, looking at the surrounding individuals to see many, even those stronger than her, filled with the same intense fear.

”It should be at the peak-True Essence Realm! Not to mention, it has been bestowed a concept of space and sword. Also, this entire room is like a formation amplifying its strengths. In here, I'd imagine it could rival a newly ascended first-floor Heavenly Genesis expert!” Pinaka informed Yan Zaizen. Law of Space? Law of Sword? It seemed to be true; a golem could be bestowed various conceptual laws.

”Wow...this is only the first floor yet its guardian is exceptional!” Yan Zaizen muttered in disbelief. It seems the Asura Phantom Palace wasn't considered a second-level heavenly-tier force for nothing.

”You're wrong,” Pinaka stated, ”this Asura Golem is likely its most powerful defense. Typically, the strongest form of defense would be left at the first level of breach. This is to dissuade others from pursuing further or touching a single bit of their treasures.”

Oh?

If that's the case, it made sense. As long as they could overcome this guardian, wouldn't they have free reign over the rest of the treasures? Despite this, many didn't take action. They slowly deliberated, and the peak forces discussed amongst each other. It seems they also realized what Pinaka did.

With nearly ten thousand experts in the stairs, everyone simply patiently waited. Some cultivation in meditation, others studied their arts or looked at references, while most discussed means and methods to combat the Asura Golem.

Days turned to weeks.

Weeks turned to months.

Finally, after eight months, a valiant looking young man dressed in light-blue armor stepped upwards in front of everyone. Despite his youthful appearance, his cultivation was at a staggering late-True Essence Realm!

”Some of you may know me, but for those who don't. My name's Wu Kun! We've come up with a plan to overcome this Asura Golem! However, we'll need everyone support in this endeavor. For those who are willing, please stay, but for those who aren't, please leave!” He gestured towards the exit, his actions and words were very domineering. Many felt discontented by those words.

Who made him king?

”Why should we leave?!” A half-step True Essence expert stepped out, looking discontented by being forced to help someone else in some godforsaken plan they knew nothing about.

Wu Kun simply smiled, his eyes suffused with an arrogant gleam, ”Simple. We'll be passing this floor with certainly, but for those who wish to take advantage of our hard work, they don't deserve a piece. Let me see, do you not wish to help?”

”How will you pass the golem?!” The expert questioned, many murmured behind him in agreement of his question. They should at least know what they'd have to do before risking their lives. For all they knew, this person wanted to use their very lives to achieve that goal. Who would be willing to do such a thing?

Wu Kun chuckled lightly, ”Simple! We'll-” His voice thundered with pride, as if the world was in his hands.

”Wait!” Someone shouted, ”Where's the golem?!”

”...”

All gazes were instantly drawn to the room guarded by the Asura Golem. Within this room was a vast empty space with a large door at the other end, but no golem.

...Where's the golem?
