Asura approached the location where the third prince and others were fighting for their lives. They were truly on the edge, and if Asura and Su Lin delayed any longer, they would surely be killed.
Asura didn't waste any more time and unleashed his hidden strength. A black aura enveloped him, and his concealment vanished. Until now, they had been using concealment tools that had been crafted by Xie Ling when they were sneaking into the royal palace. These tools were designed to hide their aura, which is why Princess Moon had not been exposed until she attacked Li Xian.
This was also the reason no one had noticed Asura and Su Lin until now. However, with Asura unleashing his hidden strength, the concealment tool's effect was nullified.
Members of high noble families began to notice Asura. One of them identified Asura, the person who identified Asura was an old man from the Li family. He exclaimed, "He is Asura, the one who killed Li Cao. I didn't expect him to be here. Hee hee... I will personally kill him and avenge Li Cao."
This old man had been present during the life-and-death match between Asura and Li Cao, and he was the one who had ordered his subordinates to save Li Cao and kill Asura if possible. However, Su Lin had prevented that from happening at that time.
Now, seeing Asura again, he couldn't restrain himself, he wanted to kill Asura as soon as possible. He released his aura, indicating his stage 3 sky realm cultivation, and leaped towards Asura.
But before he could grab Asura's neck, Asura delivered a punch to his chest, leaving a large hole that one could see through. The old man managed to mutter, "Asshole," before he died.
People were shocked by Asura's strength. From their perspective, his strength was monstrous. The strongest individuals on the side of the high noble families were four old men with a cultivation level of the seventh sky realm, but their strength was far inferior when compared to Li Xian.
These four old men were the leaders of their respective high noble clans who were participating in this betrayal. They exchanged nods simultaneously as if silently agreeing on a plan. They all attacked Asura at the same time. These old fellows were quite smart. When Asura killed the old man with stage 3 sky realm cultivation, they had already figured out that individually they were no match for Asura. So, they decided to attack together to eliminate Asura as quickly as possible.
Asura remained still and began gathering his martial energy. When the four old men were just ten feet away from Asura, they unleashed their spiritual attacks. Four different colored beams advanced towards Asura. When these beams were only one foot away from him, Asura released his battle skill and shouted, "Heaven Breaking Fist."
The collision between those four beams and Asura's fist, covered with a black aura, created a resounding "boom." The sound reverberated throughout the area, causing a shockwave that forced the four old men to retreat 20 feet. After regaining their composure, they looked at the spot where Asura had been. Smoke lingered in that location for a while, but after it dispersed, Asura could be seen completely unscathed.
The four old men widened their eyes, unable to believe that their strongest combined attack hadn't made a single scratch on Asura.
"Monster, absolutely a monster," they said with horrified expressions.
Not to mention the old men, even Asura was surprised by the power generated by the Heaven Breaking Fist. After discussions with Su Lin and Rose that day, Asura had spent his time in training. Kallu was not around, so he decided to focus on mastering his battle skill, feeling that he hadn't been able to fully unleash the power of the Heaven Breaking Fist.
He dedicated all his time to mastering it with his normal cultivation level, which resulted in good progress. However, when he used his battle skills with his hidden strength, the results were shocking. Comparing his battle skill with Asura's normal strength and then with his hidden strength, the gap was immense, akin to comparing an elephant to a mouse.
The four of them took to the sky, realizing that although Asura was very strong, he was a spiritual realm cultivator, and he couldn't fly like them. Thus, they decided to attack from the air. The ceiling had already been broken during their fight with the third prince and other members of the royal family, allowing them to easily take flight.
Asura noticed their ascent and a smile appeared on his face. He quickly activated his flying artifact and rose into the sky as well.
The four old men, who had initially been pleased to learn that Asura couldn't fly, suddenly found their smiles stiffening. One of them exclaimed, "He has a flying artifact."
Another one said, "So what? We still have the advantage. He can't fly freely like us, and his movements will be clumsy compared to his movements on the ground. If we coordinate well, we should still be able to defeat this monster."
After reaching the same height as them, Asura didn't waste any time. While ascending, he had already gathered his spiritual energy. Upon reaching their level, he shouted, "Total Annihilation."
A black beam shot out, shrouding its surroundings in complete darkness. The four old men felt the deathly aura around them. The two old men who were positioned behind the other two pushed the others aside, and they retreated at full speed.
The two old men who had been pushed collided with the Total Annihilation and vanished into thin air. When visibility returned, these two old men were completely gone, not even a trace of ash remained.
