Ascension Of The Immortal Asura

Daoist Eternal Weapon looked at John with an intense gaze, studying his extraordinary body transformation. Even for someone as experienced as him, he had never seen such a high-quality body transformation. Each and every action John made only surprised him further, making him become intrigued with something other than weapon-smithing for the first time in millennia.

John's body surged with incredible physical power as his extraordinarily strong body was further augmented by his Dragon-God Shift. Green dragon scales appeared on his body, covering some parts of his cheeks, his shoulders, arms, chest and legs. His golden eyes burned brightly, adding further to his fearsome appearance.

The air seemed to ripple around him just from him standing there, as if his physical might was too much for the surrounding space to handle. After pushing his Dragon-God Shift to the maximum, John reached out towards the hammer held by Daoist Eternal Weapon, and his hands grasped around the handle.

The shaft of the hammer was just over a foot long, and was made of some unknown metal, dark blue in color and of incredible quality. There were no intricate designs or ornate details on the shaft, which was instead smooth and plain. The shaft flowed seamlessly into the head of the hammer, as if the hammer had been made from a singular block of the mysterious metal.

The head of the hammer was six inches long, and four inches wide and tall, and of similar design as the shaft, smooth and plain. The hammer had seemed non-descript when John had watched Daoist Eternal Weapon use it before, but being this close to it now was something else. It was as if he was staring at a mountain that had been condensed into a hammer.

He could tell that it was an incredible hammer, capable of standing tall against even World Expansion grade weapons. John couldn't even imagine how strong of a blow could be unleashed if used as a weapon by Daoist Eternal Weapon.

However, when he saw that Daoist Eternal Weapon was holding the weapon out before himself with relative ease, he figured that it's weight was not as high as he felt it would be. With that in mind, John's grip tightened on the shaft of the hammer, and he pulled it backwards towards himself.

At the same time, Daoist Eternal Weapon let go of the part of the shaft he was holding, putting the full weight of the hammer in John's grasp. In an instant, shock appeared on John's face as he pushed his Dragon-God Shift to the absolute maximum.

Boom!

The ground quaked violently as the hammer struck onto it, like a meteor falling from the sky. The floor of the building, which was made from material that could resist the scorching magma outside, cracked from the fall of the hammer, spreading like a spiderweb outwards for a few feet.

"How is this so heavy?" John grumbled after recovering from his shock. His right hand was still grasped around the hammer's shaft, but no matter how much he pulled up on the hammer, it only budged an inch before he was unable to move it any more. The weight of the hammer had pulled him to his knees, unable to bear the burden for a second. Even pulling it off the ground was next to impossible, and all he could muster was an inch before it crashed back down to the ground, shaking the building once more.

"Hmhm," a muffled laugh drifted into John's ears, and his gaze shifted upwards to Daoist Eternal Weapon, who had a small smirk on his face as if he had just played a prank on John.

"You knew this would happen!" John said with a frown on his face, knowing that someone as powerful as Daoist Eternal Weapon would be able to gauge his relative strength after he had transformed, and knew it would still not be enough.

He had instructed John to swing the weapon, not just lift it. Daoist Eternal Weapon knew such a feat was absolutely impossible for a Late Heaven Tribulation cultivator, no matter how heaven defying their talent was, or how earth-shattering their techniques were.

With this in mind, it was clear that he never intended to make John a weapon, as he considered passing the challenge to be utterly impossible.

"Use this failure as a lesson in humility. You may be a genius, perhaps even a genius that stands above geniuses, but talent only takes you so far. Your strength is still far from being worthy of wielding a weapon of mine. Leave, and come back in a hundred years when your strength can be considered worthy," Daoist Eternal Weapon said to John, his voice calm yet stern as if he had instructed a child on a simple matter. After telling John this, Daoist Eternal Weapon bent down towards the hammer to pick it up, as if the matter between him and John had been concluded.

"Humility, huh?" John scoffed lightly, still kneeling on the ground. His actions caused Daoist Eternal Weapon to pause for a brief moment, as John had turned his face upwards to stare directly into his eyes, as if he were staring at an idiot.

"Then I'll teach you a lesson in humility as well," John said as a sinister aura exploded from his rapidly changing body, transforming his image into something like a draconic demon god.

Asura Transformation Art!

John stacked his Asura Transformation Art onto his Dragon-God Shift, changing his appearance into something that combined the two techniques. His muscles bulged all over his body, brimming with power while turning his physique into something truly imposing.

Two sharp and straight horns pierced out from his head, black at the base and gradually changing to a blood red color at the tips. Blood-red runic patterns that appeared on his skin during this Asura Transformation Art ran over his body and under his green dragon scales, which seemed to have darkened slightly with the new transformation.

Lastly, his eyes glowed brilliantly, red with the slightest tinge of gold in the background, appearing like a blood-red sun. It was the first time he had used these two transformation arts together with such efficiency, and while they had not been perfectly combined, both augmented his body's physical might to an unbelievable level.

Daoist Eternal Weapon felt surprise and even awe surge through him as he saw this almost instantaneous transformation, emotions that he rarely ever felt. Both the visual transformation and the might emanating off John was something that was impossible to comprehend instantly, as it completely shattered all common sense on what a Heaven Tribulation cultivator was capable of.

"The lesson is that when you're dealing with a true genius like myself, judging me by the standards of this world is nothing but a joke," John roared as he raised his physical might to the absolute maximum, gripped the hammer tightly and swung it upwards towards Daoist Eternal Weapons chin before he could react to what was happening.

Boom!
