Chapter 29 - Counterattack

"Indeed, a god will appear. This god will then accept the summoner's sacrifice, which would be the planet for a boon. The boon is usually a transfer of power." The old man said. "Release me then. I can stop this sacrifice from taking place."

On the planet's battlefield, a terrible battle was being waged, but the Chiba Clan were dropping down like flies with the onslaught of the prisoners. The prisoners had losses as well, however, they had been nursing revenge for a long time.

The Chiba Clan leader was spurting blood. "You stupid soul cultivators were the one who gave me the technique to summon the sacrificial altar. You will not survive this! Childe!" He shouted at his son, the Chiba Clan young master.

The young master who had been avoiding the fight so far took out a treasure he had. He may have only been for Foundation establishment realm, but with his treasures he was a danger on the battle field. As he took out the Card he had used before which turned into ropes, he was suddenly met with a powerful kick that threw him into a corner like a rag doll. The punch was by a Chiba guard wearing a mask. The five cultivators heaved a sigh of relief and continued fighting the nascent soul practitioner.

Red arrived like a rocket in front of the Chiba young master who had already steadied himself on his feet. Both of them met their punches and bother were pushed back five steps each. Red didn't hesitate, he couldn't let the young master use any of his treasures and so maintained a continuous onslaught of attacks - a flurry of punches and kicks.

The Chiba Young Master had actually learned to fight in his youth at the Taira clan and he was way superior than anyone on his level in lower kingdoms. He was shocked that he was barely able to contain a qi condensation martial artist.

"Who the hell are you?" He yelled in anger.

He suddenly pointed his finger to the sky and the power of the heavens congealed into a point on the tip of his index finger.When it reached a boiling point, he brought his finger down and it was as if the sky fell with the finger and the heaven's were looking to crush Red. Red suddenly changed his movement and it became very profound, he started leaving after images in a zig zag pattern and then suddenly his speed accelerated to an extreme and with that momentum he utilized a punch with a thousand variants from the Fundamental Combat Techniques.

The punch met the finger, the heaven met with a domineering will of an Asura and under the pressure the heaven's buckled and the sky shattered, the Chiba young master's finger crumpled and his hand exploded into a shower of blood. A ring floated in the air within the blood mist and was slyly grabbed by Red before he used a kick of a thousand variants.

The punch and kick of a thousand variants were the hints of intent from the Asura that Red had gleaned from the Profound Asura Scriptures. They held the essence of thousand punches within one and the the combination was a harmony that elevated the strength of the punch beyond one's physical limits.

The Chiba Young Master was blinded by the pain of his hand bursting and screamed in pain, but before he could vent a kick that could split heavens itself hit his chest which crumpled inwards and the Young master of the clan exploded into smithereens.

The Clan Leader who saw this went made with anger, rage and sadness. He suddenly made a weird formation with his hands. When the five soul cultivators fighting him saw that, they immediately backed off, however, the clan leader's nascent soul came out of his body and the body exploded and turned into a blood drop.

Immediately all the prisoners too started exploding as well as many members of the Chiba clan and finally the Soul beast that the Chiba young master had leashed in with him earlier as well. The five soul cultivators paled, but they held on, however their cultivation was destroyed. These were all the conduits who died. Their blood flew to the ball controlled by that nascent soul and became a huge globe.

The globe had so much power that space was bending around it and it was spawning lightning. Suddenly the sphere of blood burned up and in the heavens a vortex opened up. Space itself split apart as a Shadow began descending. The entire galaxy felt a thousand tremors. Humans and aliens alike looked towards the direction.

Deep in the center of the galaxy a man looked up. "To summon God, the person is either extremely foolish or extremely ambitious. Let us see which one it is."

The arrival of the Shadow in the atmosphere of Sakura planet caused the planet's crusts to develop rifts and lava began flowing in many areas. The tides were overturned. The soul cultivators were the only conduits left and had given up their cultivation to survive, yet God wasn't satisfied. The shadow snorted and the five burst into a blood mist and the blood burned as well with a black flame.

Yet, the God wasn't satisfied. Amazingly, not all conduits had been sacrificed for his arrival yet. Admittedly God arrived in haste, it had been some time since it had been summoned and got to feast. Arriving before all the conduits had been burned meant its power was slightly leashed. The shadow turned to look at one person who was standing calmly. It was the old man Red had discussed with in the prison.

A low and powerful rumble spread through the planet. "Impudent! A mere mortal dares to challenge my ritual?" The shadow then saw the nascent soul who had summoned him and suddenly the nascent soul of the Chiba Clan leader burst into energy with a scream and burned in black flames.

The old man laughed. He flew to meet God in the air.
