Chapter 1024
Hera and Tobtas exchanged a book, their fear intensifying as they realized they had misjudged how formidable Ashton truly was. “What should we do?” Hera bit down on her lower lip, overwhelmed with anger and deep resentment.
“It’s time for us to retreat! In any case, Eden had already been affected by the aphrodisiac and weakened by my energy, so she won’t survive for long! We’ll come back for Ashton once the experts from the Heavenly Medical Pavilion arrive!
“I’m certain that we’ll win against him then, so there’s no point in risking our fives now!” Tobias took a deep breath, stifling his killing intent to maintain a level head.
“Got it!” Hera nodded in understanding.
She was aware that since their combined assault failed to kill Ashton, there was little point in continuing. It would be better to retreat for now and strike later, knowing that Zolane would still be hers as long as Eden was dead.
“Let’s go!” Hera bolted, attempting to flee the scene.
However, she unexpectedly hit a barrier that made her body tremble, leaving her unable to get past it.
She widened her eyes in surprise as a growing sense of dread filled her heart. “What’s going on here?”
Ashton sneered. “I told you before-anyone who hurts my woman will have to pay for it! I set up this barrier before the fight even started, so you guys aren’t going anywhere!”
“You’re the one who set up the barrier? You’ve got to be kidding me! How could you possibly pull that off in such a short amount of time?” Hera snapped.
“You clearly don’t understand who you are fighting or just how strong I am!” Ashton suddenly clapped his hands. “I’ve had enough of talking. I’ll make my move now! I hope you can put up enough of a fight to sharpen my martial path. Otherwise, I’m going to be very disappointed!”
Ashton’s eyes blazed with black flames as his killing intent surged. He fixed his eyes on Hera and bellowed, “I’ll begin with you -the traitor!”
With that, Ashton’s form blurred like a phantom dragon. He moved as swiftly as a rising wind, lunging at Hera with killing intent.
Hera felt a cold dread in her heart the moment Ashton fixed his gaze on her, as if she were being stared at by the Grim Reaper itself, completely crushing her spirit.
She found herself without the courage to strike back, even though her realm surpassed Ashton’s. She griffed her teeth and retreated quickly, hoping to avoid the brunt of Ashton’s momentum.
Ashton, however, was incredibly fast, moving with an eerie agility. He closed the gap in seconds, his fist clenching as he fused different energies together. He then swung a heavy, violent blow toward Hera, with flames and lightning crackling around his
blackened fist.
“What the hell!”
Hera was stunned to discover that she had been locked inside Ashton’s offensive domain, with no way to dodge the blow. She could feel a massive gravitational force dragging her toward the center of the attack, her expression tightening as she gathered her peak divine realm energy to form a light barrier.
Ashton unleashed his Sixfold Carnage Fist in a heartbeat. It was a clean and straightforward move without any unnecessary flourish just a display of absolute mastery over raw power.
In that instant, a series of thunderous booms erupted as the two forces collided head-on, and Hera’s light barrier started to give way, with deep fractures splintering across its surface.
