Chapter 216: super divine artifacts Enter the Ranking
Most terrifyingly, a projection of Asura Hell emerged around the phantom of the demon sword!
In the center of that Asura Hell, a phantom of a demon god could be vaguely seen, clad in blood-colored battle armor, holding a demon sword, with eyes as cold as ice.
That was the manifestation of the Asura God's Divine Thought!
[Divine Artifact Treasure Ranking, Fourth Place: Asura Demon Sword]
[Rank]: super divine artifact (Slaughter/Judgment Law attributes)
[Characteristics]: The exclusive super divine artifact of the Asura God, one of the five God Kings of the God Realm. It was forged from Chaos Blood Crystals, Law Fragments, and the complete God King Authority of the Asura God. The sword body carries its own "Asura Domain." Within the Domain, the power of all slaughter-attribute skills is increased by 500%, while the effects of all defense, healing, and support-attribute skills are weakened by 80%. It can sever Karma, shatter Laws, and judge Divinities. Only the successor of the Asura God Position can fully wield it.]
[Owner]: Lü Bu (Big Dipper Academy, Successor of the Asura God Position)]
[Reason for Ranking]: This Divine Artifact is the inherited treasure of the Asura God. Its rank is supreme, being an super divine artifact in the truest sense, possessing the terrifying power to judge Divinities and sever Laws. However, because Lü Bu has not yet fully inherited the Asura God Position, this sword is in a semi-sealed state, capable of exerting only fifty percent of its power, and it has a strong erosive effect on the holder's Heart-Nature. Considering its comprehensive power, rank, and Seal level, it is ranked fourth.]
[Ranking Rewards:]
1. Seal Loosening: The Seal on the Asura Demon Sword is partially released, allowing it to exert eighty percent of its power. The range of the Asura Domain expands to a radius of sixty miles, and the activity of the Slaughter Law within the Domain increases by 40%.
2. God Trial Acceleration: Lü Bu's Asura God Trial progress is accelerated by 50%. The difficulty of the demon sword recognizing its master is reduced by 60%, and the estimated completion time is shortened by two-thirds.
3. Judgment Authority: Unlocks the Asura Demon Sword's exclusive Divine Skill "Blood Slaughter Judgment" (Executes an absolute judgment on a single target, providing Defense Negation, ignoring Laws, and directly attacking the Soul Origin, with an additional damage bonus against Divine Rank targets).
4. Law Comprehension: Lü Bu's depth of comprehension of the "Slaughter Law" and "Judgment Law" is permanently increased by 30%, and the difficulty of breaking through the God King Bottleneck in the future is reduced by 15%... The moment the voice from the heavenly curtain fell.
The entire Douluo Continent fell into an unprecedented dead silence!
After the silence came a landslide-like uproar and fear!
"Fourth place! Asura Demon Sword! An super divine artifact!"
"My god! It really is an super divine artifact! A God King-level weapon!"
"Slaughter City is actually the Legacy land of the Asura God King!"
"Lü Bu from Big Dipper Academy, he is the successor of the Asura God King?"
"No wonder his strength is so terrifying! It turns out he has a God King Legacy!"
"Severing Karma, shattering Laws, judging Divinities... this is simply Heaven-Defying!"
"..."
Countless forces once again realized how deep the foundation of Big Dipper Academy truly was!
Not only does Dean Lu Xiao possess the mysterious and unfathomable origin heaven wheel, but Lü Bu is actually the successor of the Asura God King, wielding the super divine artifact Asura Demon Sword!
This strength has already surpassed everyone's understanding!
...Slaughter City.
Lü Bu, who was currently taking the trial, was clad in dark red battle armor and held a demon sword that was dark red throughout, its blade flowing with blood-colored light—it was indeed the Asura Demon Sword.
He looked at the phantom of the demon sword fully revealed on the heavenly curtain and the lines of blood-colored text, a rare smile appearing on his resolute face.
"Asura Demon Sword, fourth place, not bad."
Lü Bu murmured to himself, his voice carrying a hint of satisfaction.
He could clearly feel that at this moment, after the rewards from the heavenly curtain descended, the Seal on the Asura Demon Sword in his hand had loosened once more!
That power, as vast as an abyss and as murderous as Hell, was slowly awakening deep within the sword's body!
Lü Bu lightly swung the demon sword!
"Buzz!"
A blood-colored Sword Qi soared into the sky, and wherever it passed, space was torn open into a pitch-black crack a hundred zhang long.
At the edges of the crack, countless tiny Law fragments could be vaguely seen disintegrating and annihilating!
The surrounding slaughter aura instantly surged tenfold!
All the Soul Masters in Slaughter City felt the blood boiling in their bodies and their Battle Intent soaring!
"Good sword!"
Blood-colored light flickered in Lü Bu's eyes.
"Eighty percent power is already enough to slay a god."
He restrained the Sword Qi, and the demon sword returned to tranquility, but that heart-palpitating slaughter aura lingered for a long time... Clear Sky Sect, mountain peak.
Tang Chen looked up at the familiar Asura Demon Sword on the heavenly curtain, and for the first time, deep regret and unwillingness surfaced in his weathered eyes.
"Asura Demon Sword, fourth place!"
He murmured to himself, his voice filled with endless bitterness.
"This should have been my Opportunity!"
He was once the successor of the Asura God Trial, possessing extraordinary talent, and was hailed as a once-in-a-century genius of the Clear Sky Sect.
Wielding the Asura Demon Sword and roaming the Douluo Continent, how glorious he was!
But in the end, during the eighth trial of the Asura God Trial, he lost himself to a Heart Demon and was parasitically controlled by the Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King, living in a daze for decades.
Though he was saved by the heavenly curtain, regained control of the Clear Sky Sect, and recovered his sanity.
His path to godhood, however, had already been severed.
"I can only blame myself."
Tang Chen sighed toward the sky, a look of determination flashing in his eyes.
"But my, Tang Chen's, path will not end here! Without a God Position Legacy, I will use my own strength... to tread a path to godhood!"
He gripped the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, and faint blood-colored patterns vaguely appeared on the hammer's body.
Those were the marks left behind when he came into contact with Asura God Power back then.
Perhaps these marks are his last hope... Star Dou Great Forest, Lake of Life.
Gu Yuena looked at the dark red demon sword on the heavenly curtain, and for the first time, clear killing intent and... wariness surfaced in her purple eyes.
"Asura Demon Sword!"
She whispered the name, her voice as cold as frost.
"When the Dragon God split back then, the Asura God was one of the main forces. This sword is stained with the blood of countless members of my Dragon Clan."
She could clearly feel that the slaughter aura emitted by that demon sword produced an instinctive repulsion and hostility with the Silver Dragon King Bloodline within her.
That was a hatred etched deep within the Bloodline!
Her original injuries were caused by this very Asura Demon Sword!
Di Tian felt Gu Yuena's emotions and said solemnly, "Lord, Lü Bu is now a member of Big Dipper Academy, and Big Dipper Academy..."
"I know."
Gu Yuena interrupted him, the killing intent in her purple eyes slowly receding.
"With the Abyss Invasion at hand, personal grudges will be set aside for now."
She looked toward Big Dipper Academy, a profound look flashing in her eyes: "Once everything has settled, I must personally break this sword."
...Spirit City, Hall of Worship.
Qian Daoliu looked at the Asura Demon Sword on the heavenly curtain, and for the first time, a true sense of powerlessness surfaced in his golden eyes.
"An super divine artifact, a God King Legacy!"
He murmured to himself, "Big Dipper Academy's foundation has increased once again!"
The Angelic Sacred Sword in his hand trembled slightly, as if in fear of that higher-ranking sword of slaughter.
"High Priest..."
An Elder asked cautiously, "We..."
Qian Daoliu was silent for a long time before slowly saying, "Watch and wait, do not provoke Big Dipper Academy!"
...Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Bibi Dong looked at the heavenly curtain, a flash of madness and greed appearing in her purple eyes.
"super divine artifact, Asura Demon Sword!"
She murmured to herself,
"If I could obtain it—no, if my Rakshasa Demonic Scythe could evolve to the level of an super divine artifact..."
She gripped the demonic scythe in her hand, the vengeful Souls on the scythe wailing.
"I must accelerate the God Trial process! At all costs, I must achieve the rakshasa god position before Lü Bu fully becomes a god!"
...Just as the entire Douluo Continent was shaken by the Asura Demon Sword.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
In the sky above, the seat for the third rank finally began to radiate light!
It was a pure, noble silver light that seemed capable of commanding all elements!
