The Night King: The Asura
Ch-265′s chat. The God of Void.
Jia Zhen's steps finally came to a halt after he was in the palace hall, his calm eyes focused on the two figures sitting on such a majestic throne.
"Young man, may I know who you are?" ask the figure of the man Jia Zhen believed to be the king in the palace.
"I'm more interested in knowing who you are" Jia Zhen replied.
"An interesting young man, do you want to be our son?" asked the female figure, then moved from her throne and immediately approached Jia Zhen.
Jia Zhen shook his head softly, "Sorry, your highness the queen. But, I still have complete parents and love me very much" he replied politely.
The woman smiled as she gently stroked Jia Zhen's cheek with her palm that felt so delicate and tender. Although he had just been rejected, but there was not the slightest anger in the look on his face.
In fact, the look in his eyes was very calm, and Jia Zhen was sure, that gaze could calm anyone who saw it, succeeding the calmness in the eyes of the woman managed Jia Zhen to carve a beautiful smile on his thin lips.
"It doesn't matter if you still have parents, because I won't take you away from them."
"Your highness the queen, I am truly sorry" Jia Zhen said.
"My wife, it's not good to impose too much will, if this young man doesn't want to, we can't force him."
"Well" the woman let out a long sigh, then returned to her husband's side, "It's a pity, when he's a very good boy" she said softly, but was still heard by Jia Zhen.
Jia Zhen only responded to the woman's words with a smile, then set his sights on the kings who were still sitting quietly on his magnificent throne.
"Your majesty, may I know who the two of you are?" asked Jia Zhen.
"I don't mind telling you who I really am, but before that, I want to test you first, are you willing?"
"Just calm down, I won't force you if you don't."
Jia Zhen did not immediately reply and chose to think about the man's offer, although he did not know yet what exam the man would give, but at least, with the test, it was, he can increase his potential again.
"Alright, but I also have a request" Jia Zhen replied.
"Haha!" the man laughed out loud, "I really like the young man who bluntly, tell me, what's your request!"
Afterwards, Jia Zhen told me that his uncle would get married tomorrow and that he needed something to give as his uncle's wedding gift.
Then, Jia Zhen explained that if he did not want to give something ordinary to his uncle, in other words, he asked for something valuable from the man.
"It doesn't matter that I will give you some precious treasures if you manage to pass my test!"
"I'll take that as a deal!" jia Zhen.
The man smiled, "Alright, the first test is to withstand the pressure from my strength!"
Without waiting for an answer or response from Jia Zhen, the man just immediately released an aura of his strength, thus making Jia Zhen feel like his body was being overwritten by something extremely heavy.
Although the pressure of intimidation was enormous, Jia Zhen was still able to endure just by unleashing his strength alone, but the power he unleashed to withstand the pressure was almost one hundred percent.
"Lumayan, I'll increase the pressure!"
Wush!
A much larger aura struck Jia Zhen's body, instantly, even greater intimidation pressure instantly fell on his body, even that pressure to the point of making Jia Zhen's body slightly bow because of it.
"It's still not much!" jia Zhen said while releasing strength to the maximum stage.
"Haha! Keep on holding on, young man! Prove that you deserve my confession!"
Wush!
An even greater aura hit Jia Zhen's body again, and the intimidation pressure generated by the aura forced Jia Zhen to use the God energy in his body, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to do so, he must have fainted because of it.
"My guess turned out to be correct, that means, it doesn't matter if I use even more power."
"Young man, if you manage to withstand this ten percent of my strength, then I will end this first test!"
Wush!
"Nurrah!"
Fresh blood began to flow from the corner of his lips, indicating that his soul was injured due to the immense pressure of intimidation.
Although that man only exerted ten percent of his strength, but to Jia Zhen, that ten percent strength was already extremely great, even truly enormous to him.
Although his soul had already started to be injured from withstanding the pressure that exceeded his ability, yet Jia Zhen still did not want to give up, his desire to reward Zhu Ling gave him the impetus to stay afloat.
"My husband, stop it right now!"
"But..."
"Stop it or I'll be mad!"
"No-no, it's not stopped" said Jia Zhen.
"But this kind of pressure can destroy your soul."
"I-I can still survive!"
Wush!
Booms!
Booms!
Not long after, from within Jia Zhen's body came a muffled explosive sound twice, which signified that his cultivation had increased by two levels.
The incident immediately shocked the man, not expecting Jia Zhen to use the pressure from him to push himself past his own limits.
The way that Jia Zhen did was a very extreme way, because if he failed, then the risk was death, therefore, this way was never used by cultivators.
And those who still use this method, will usually be considered as unequaled geniuses, some even consider them crazy, for willing to sacrifice their lives to increase cultivation.
"Unbelievably, it's been thousands of years since I last saw a reckless person like you" the man said.
"Didn't you used to be like that?"
The man laughed awkwardly, "My wife, why bring up the past instead?"
"It's none of your business!" said the woman, then approached Jia Zhen, then treated the soul of Jia Zhen who had been injured because of her husband.
"Son, what's your name?"
"Lin Jia Zhen."
"What a name! All right, now the second test." said the man who still hasn't left his throne.
"Let me!"
After sitting back on her throne, the woman then smiled at Jia Zhen, "Lin Jia Zhen, the highest level of calmness is voidness. But, do you know the highest level after the void?"
The woman's question sounded ordinary, but it managed to make Jia Zhen rack his brain to find the answer, because in his opinion, there was no longer a higher level of calmness other than voidness.
"Obdomain, void..is not the same as empty? No, more precisely emptiness" Jia Zhen replied.
The husband and wife looked at each other when they heard Jia Zhen's reply, then they nodded and turned to him.
"Am I right?"
"Not only is it true, but the answer you give is very precise."
"Exposure is actually the same as emptiness, it makes almost no difference. However, the power behind this void is far greater than the void."
"Strength?"
The man who had been sitting on his throne from the beginning, finally stood up and then approached Jia Zhen, as well as his wife.
"Increase, we are the God of Emptiness, a level higher than you who is the God of Voidness."
