Cycle Of Nirvana - Chapter 119

These were naturally the people led by Gninekawa and the wolves who came with him.

As soon as Gninekawa entered, the first thing he saw was Asil next to the statue. He certainly did not expect to encounter such a thing. After all, he had given Asil the poisoned drink with his own hands, and he should have died long ago by now.

While still in his daze, Gninekawa saw the nail that Asil was holding in his hand, and as his expression changed instantly, he shouted: “Brat! I don’t know how you’re still alive and how you got here before we do, but your miraculous luck is here! Give me what you’re holding before I act, otherwise…”

“Otherwise what happens? Would you kill me? Do I look like an idiot from there? Do you really expect me to think that when I give you this, you won’t try to kill me? Don’t make me laugh! Come and get it if you want to…” Gninekawa’s speech was interrupted by Asil’s words.

There was a group that was outnumbered in front of him. Out of the eight humans, five were at the Nascent Profound Realm, and three were at the last levels of the Elementary Profound Realm. Three of the Profound Beasts were also at the last levels of the Elementary Profound Realm, while two of them were at the Nascent Profound Realm. And one among them was at the eighth level of the Nascent Profound Realm.

Considering the fact that Profound Beasts were stronger than normal humans, even the strength of this beast alone was equal to or perhaps even stronger than a human who was at the Ninth Level of the Nascent Profound Realm. Asil had almost no chance of winning against such a group, and he was well aware of it. Therefore, he considered removing the swords from his Spatial Ring in order to better defend himself during his planned escape attempt.

However, as soon as he touched his Spatial Ring, his facial expression changed while he was out of breath instantly. Disbelief burned in his eyes more intensely than ever before…

How could this happen? This… This… It’s impossible!

Under the gaze of Gninekawa  and those around him, Asil was rejecting what he perceived by speaking to himself within himself and could not believe that such a thing was happening.

His Spatial Ring, which he had not used since coming to the Chaka Tribe, should have contained Profound Swords, Profound Stones, Profound Cores, and coins normally given by Medivh. But what’s in it right now; It was the strange Profound Beast that had hatched in the Black Dragon Mountain Range along with the coins! All other things had completely disappeared! How could this be possible? What it took for such a thing to happen was like climbing into the skies with a  cotton thread. In fact, even carrying mountains above the clouds would be as easy as taking a spring hike compared to that!

ASil wanted to examine his Spatial Ring in greater detail using his senses but now was not the right time. After all, the enemies before him would definitely not give him such a long free time.

Indeed, this was how it happened, and at that moment, with Gninekawa’s signal, a wolf from the Tenth Level of the Elementary Profound Realm rushed forward to attack Asil.

As the wolf approached him, Asil was busy thinking about what to do. This wolf alone did not pose any danger to him. However, he could feel the alarm bells ringing because of the presence of other enemies, especially Gninekawa from the Seventh Level of the Nascent Profound Realm and the wolf from the Eighth level of the Nascent Profound Realm.

And in this whole situation, he didn’t even have swords to use! All he had was the purple bottle in his left hand and the nail in his right. He certainly had no thought of putting them in his Spatial Ring with strange things in it.

Considering the possibility of the bottle breaking, Asil clenched his right hand and made a fist, and prepared to swing the wolf that was thrown towards him. But before he could make any movement, a purple light emerged from his right hand, illuminating the surrounding area, causing the advancing wolf to stop instantly.

Seeing the light, the wolf stared briefly at Asil’s right hand, then lowered his head, then bent his knees and lay down! Moreover, he was not the only wolf who made this move! Even the great wolf at the Eighth Level of the Nascent Profound Realm lay down without a sound and bowed his head as if looking directly at Asil was a great disrespect to him!

After what the wolves had done, Gninekawa grimaced. He knew that the power of this fingernail, which he had wanted for a long time, was to gain absolute control over the profound beasts in the forest. But for this, he had to first pour his blood to the fingernail and create a blood contract using his own soul and energy. As thanking God for Asil not knowing this, Gninekawa ordered three weaker profound strengths among the men serving him to attack Asil.

The moment they moved to attack Asil, Asil too attempted to return to the corridor he had come from to escape. However, when he looked at the place where the corridor was, he realized that the corridor was closed by a wall and that this wall looked like a very thick, real wall.

Asil clearly realized at that moment that the situation he was in was quite bad. He thought for a moment about what to do, but there was only one thing that came to mind. He was going to take a risk! He didn’t know what the outcome would be, but he had no choice but to take risks. He quickly took the bottle in his left hand and uncapped it, and he drank the liquid from the bottle, which Pythia had warned a few minutes ago, saying only use this bottle as a last resort.

“AHHH!”

As the purple liquid in the bottle passed through his throat, Asil experienced a pain he had never felt before, as a result of which he shouted uncontrollably. It was as if all the pores in his body were bursting open, and all the organs were twisting and contracting at the same time. Asil had suffered many times before, but the pain he felt right now was absolutely incomparable to the others! Having difficulty even carrying himself, his legs lost all their strength as Asil lost consciousness at that moment, and Asil fell hard on his face.

Everything had happened so quickly that the people Gninekawa had ordered to attack Asil stood where they were and started looking towards Asil to understand what had happened.

While they could not understand what was happening, Gninekawa, who did not care what happened to him, ordered the three people who had acted at first, to kill Asil and bring the nail in his hand to him.

Following his command, the three of them would start again, but just then, they noticed the black smoke emerging around Asil and quickly gathered around his body, and stopped again. This smoke covered Asil’s entire body in just a few seconds, and after turning him into a completely black cloud of smoke, it quickly disappeared as if it had been absorbed by Asil!

“Hrrrr…”

The growling sound coming from Asil’s place broke the silence around. Asil pressed his left hand to the ground and slowly stood up, taking strength from his arm.

The three people who wanted to attack him normally wanted to take action. However, when they saw the change in Asil’s face, who stood up, an involuntary fear arose in their hearts.

They knew of Asils strength through his fights with Icnamro and that the three of them normally didn’t stand a chance against him. But even so, they had attacked, confident that they had a numerical advantage and that Gninekawa was behind them. However, despite their confidence now, Asil’s feeling was completely different from before. It was as if the person in front of them right now was not a young man who was wary enough not to strike a fatal blow even though he was constantly fighting with Icnamro, but a predator that had been starving for months and finally found something to eat!

As Asil’s normally black iris had turned red and the whites of his eyes black as coals, his face had become quite frightening. Add to that the black sun symbol on his forehead, and he looked just like a stamped devil!

Asil opened his mouth slowly and smiled awkwardly, pursing his lips. Then, while smilingly looking at the three people who had taken action in the first place to attack him, he raised his right hand into the air and threw the nail in his hand towards them.

Seeing the fingernail in the air, Gninekawa shouted while ignoring Asil. “Lesdnah, what are you standing there! Hurry up and get the nail! Then kill this kid!”

The man named ‘Lesdnah’, who was in the Seventh Level of the Elementary Profound Realm, the weakest among those who took action after Gninekawa’s shout, suppressed his fear with all his might and rushed forward to catch the fingernail in the air.

After taking a few steps, he jumped into the air and caught the fingernail. However, as he descended to the ground, a black shadow appeared and disappeared for a moment before his eyes, and he felt a pain in his left ear as the shadow disappeared. When he landed, he involuntarily placed his hand on his sore left ear, and his facial expression changed with the wetness he felt on his hand! His left ear was missing right now!

Turning around in fear, the man named Lesdnah looked at Asil in surprise and the detached earpiece he was holding in his left hand. As Lesdnah looked towards him, Asil tilted his head slightly to the side and then, smiling, brought the severed ear he was holding to his mouth and bit it.

After chewing several times in his mouth, he spat out the severed and chewed earpiece. He licked the blood from the corners of his lips with his tongue while an expression of extreme pleasure formed on his face.
