Tower Ascension - Chapter 79

Will of the Heavenly Dragon, a move that was taken directly from Zhao Ming’s will of the Golden Dragon. This was the move he created a few seconds earlier. Although he had an idea for this movie a while ago when he fought Zhao Ming, he hadn’t come to a decision to complete it and use it in the battle.

After all, it was Zhao Ming’s skill. But now, he wanted to use this skill in his own way to defeat this humanoid beast. And, the reason is pretty simple. He wanted to take revenge for Zhao Ming. So, using this skill against the humanoid beast was a good idea.

But, he wasn’t sure to win. After all, the opponent had Power Intent, and immense physical strength as well. Unlike Zhao Ming’s skill, the power of the dragon didn’t get transferred to his body. Rather, the dragon formed in the sky had the raw power of his internal energy and the body of the flames.

This Will of the Heavenly Dragon was the manifestation of his Sword Energy and Fire Dragon Skill. The dragon raised its claw and slammed towards the humanoid beast. When the power of the dragon claw descended, the fist broke out.

Bang!

The power of the fist was roaring the sky and trembling the ground. When the dragon claw and the immortal’s fist collides, the dragon aura is released out of the claw. The Power Intent that overwhelmed the dragon claw was pushed back.

The black energy coated around his fist was slowly breaking apart but the claw of the dragon was also breaking apart. The power of these two was opposing each other to the point where the immense shockwaves pushed the humanoid beast and Peter away.

Both tried to stick on the ground but the impact was too much to bear. Both were shaken as they retreated hastily.

Roar!

When the black energy coating disappeared alongside the claw of the dragon, the dragon roared with the immense pressure that smashed the humanoid beast. At this moment, several cuts appeared on the body of the humanoid beast.

Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash!

The power of the roar released the intense sword energy that left hundreds of sword marks on his body.

The humanoid beast bears the impact and released his black energy. He stomped on the ground and rushed towards Peter. The black energy condensed around his fist and formed a solid coating. Seeing this, Peter’s eyes shrunk.

He knew this move was the Great Immortal Breaking the Void but he didn’t know the opponent can use it twice.

“Peter!”

Suddenly, a sound awakened him. He turned around and suddenly felt a difference. Only then he notice the other four were slowly floating in the air. It wasn’t them floating on their own. Rather, it was the island that was falling with an intense speed.

‘Damn! Then, one year it is.’ Peter gritted his teeth and stomped his foot on the ground. His body moved towards the humanoid beast. But, in the middle, the humanoid beast clenched both of his fists and moved them to the sides.

“One Man Breaking the Void!”

The humanoid beast accumulated the black energy into his fists and rushed towards Peter. But, suddenly, his eyes shrunk. Peter took out the trident. The golden trident appeared in his hand.

Peter gripped it tightly and raised his hand. Seeing this, the humanoid beast didn’t stop his attack. Although he felt the power of the trident, he still wanted to fight till the death.

He smashed both of his fists towards Peter’s chest. His strike was rather confusing. He had one fist aimed at his chest and another hand just below it. But, Peter didn’t dare to underestimate his attack. Peter moved his trident even before he could move his fists.

Splash! Bang!

His trident pierced the humanoid beast’s stomach while his fist couldn’t even reach Peter’s body. But, the next moment, Peter flew out. His entire chest bones were crushed. He coughed out blood like crazy.

“Damn! Threads of Fate!”

Suddenly, an anxious voice rang as two different threads rolled around Peter’s body. On another side, Zhao Ming held the tread. But, the next moment, even his body flew out. He was still in the air after all.

“Zhao Ming, don’t let brother go!”

Alice’s voice rang as she clutched Zhao Ming’s body. At the same time, John clutched her legs and Alexa held his legs. But, she had her legs attached to the ground, using the arrows and ropes. After a few seconds, the island stopped falling and the message appeared in the sky.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Alice, John, and Zhao Ming fell to the ground and this made Peter’s body fall down. Before it was still hanging in the air but now it was falling down the island. Fortunately, the threads of fate hanged him. But, they had to pull him up.

At this moment, Peter had completely lost his consciousness. They pulled him on the island and looked at the sky.

[Congratulation on crossing the dungeon!]

“Congratulations, everyone!” Suddenly, a voice rang and startled them. Alice hurriedly caught the trident and hide it behind her.

“Hehe! Don’t worry, little girl! I can’t take it even if I want to. Only he can use it unless he dies.” The admin of the second floor was a lizard. He was wearing a professional suit just like other admins. He was standing on his lizard foot.

And, while speaking his long tongue comes out often.

Still, Alice didn’t trust him. The admin sighed and looked at others.

“Alright, here are your rewards. I have many other things to manage. You will be teleported to the third floor once you accept this reward. But, it’s best for you to wake him up. After all, you won’t know what you might face on the third floor.”

Hearing his words, everyone had seriousness on their faces. Even though following Peter was beneficial, it also comes with risks. Alexa hurriedly took out a few healing potions and puts them in his mouth.

Above them, there were five bubbles with different rewards. At the same time, they also got a massive amount of EXP since they had Peter on their team as well. The admin disappeared after gifting them.

All of them sat near Peter while he started recovering. Peter was hurt badly. His chest bones were broken. Zhao Ming glanced at Peter and opened his mouth.

“He would’ve died.”

Alexa and John looked at him and nodded their heads.

“If Peter hadn’t used that trident on time he would’ve died. That strike was something not even five of us combined can block. The attack didn’t land on his body that’s the only reason why he didn’t die. And, this is just the second floor.”

Hearing his words, everyone else turned silent. They knew what he actually meant. They couldn’t help but clench their fists.

“I want that.” Zhao Ming looked at the trident and asked Alice.

But, Alice kept it behind her and shook her head.

Zhao Ming sighed and turned his head away. He knew until Peter wakes up, he can’t ask for a trident from Alice. She is like a personal guard to Peter. No matter how much he tries, he can’t make her give that trident to him.

Alexa and John understood him and tried to convince Alice but she didn’t give it to them as well. First, Alexa wasn’t related to Peter in any other manner. Second, John only had Peter’s face. He isn’t Peter. Since Zhao Ming couldn’t train with the trident, he closed his eyes and focused on the Threads of Fate.

The move that he just used was something that he never knew he could do. These threads of fate were just imaginary lines. At least, this is what he thought before. But now, he found they could be even touched.

Suddenly, an idea came to his mind. He looked at Alexa and asked, “Do you have extra healing potions?”

Alexa nodded her head. Then, Zhao Ming turned his head at John and asked “The next thing that I will do might hurt you. But, don’t worry, it won’t be too bad. Can I test it?”

“Why do you want to test it on him?” Alexa asked.

“I want to find out which opponent can I hurt using this power. John is currently the weakest among us. That’s why I want to start from him.” Zhao Ming answered while turning his head at John.

John bitterly smiled and nodded his head. He didn’t expect to become a genie pig.

“Hu!” Zhao Ming released a deep breath and suddenly moved his finger. In his hand, he was holding the red thread. When he caught Peter, he used the blue thread. But, red-figure means danger. That’s why he wanted to test whether it will truly be dangerous or not.

As he moved his finger, he attached John with the red thread.

“Did you feel anything?” He asked.

John shook his head.

“Alright, here I come.” Zhao Ming suddenly pulled the thread with a little bit of force. But, nothing happened to John.

“I will increase the power.” Zhao Ming said and pulled the thread with his full force.

“Gah!”

At this moment, John felt a strong punch strike his back. It wasn’t just imagination. He really got hurt as he coughed out blood.

“It works!”
