'It would have been nice if you let know you could do that... a Stellar Constellation who can withstand the attacks of two Law Integration realm cultivators, the heavens aren't fair nowadays', said Esralda, making Aster chuckle.
Once the ten seconds of invincibility ended, he would have been in so trouble, maybe the armor at its maximum output and his insane vitality could have kept him alive but he would have still suffered heavy wounds due to the impact.
He still had so talismans made with Lilia's spirit energy by Eris, but this is one of the reasons as to why either Eris or Mylene were asked to go with him, because even against Law Integration cultivators, they were able to hold their ground.
And that was the original reason as to why Lilia asked her son to keep Mylene as their family's maid, though now she has integrated into their family by her own will.
Mylene's Genesis Core returned to her body and after making sure everyone was fine, she stood in front of the giant armor, Aster still had a couple of seconds of invincibility left, but the there were two enemies in front of them.
Aster's eyes glowed as received a ssage directly to his ears, before he gazed at the old Egil.
"And here I was thinking my instincts had started to fail , but you turned out to be an scheming old bastard as I thought when I t you", he said with a mocking voice.
Egil gritted his teeth, a vein popped on his neck due to Aster insulting him, he was also confused by this, so he wanted to confirm a few things.
"So, you are a monster who cos from one of those faraway places, just like that witch, what right do you have to co here and steal the legacy my family has been guarding all these years, and also doing this to my nephew!", shouted the old Egil.
Aster of course had no idea about what was that old man talking about, but since he seed to be angry enough to spill the beans by himself, he didn't correct the old man.
"How co I couldn't see you were a traitor, just like that piece of trash nephew of yours?", asked Vivian, making sure to rub salt on the wound.
Egil saw Joseph which was still at the brink of death and turned to see the other Law Integration cultivator.
"What the hell are you waiting, if my nephew dies you'll be killed by the Demon Lord of the East you know".
The Law Integration cultivator felt a chill running down his spine, he took Joseph from Egil's hands and made a cut on his wrists from which he took out blood and fed it to Joseph, but to his surprise the only thing that happened was that Joseph's body let out a lot of black smoke instead of curing itself.
"Idiot he was hit with a vitality feeding poison, take him to the spaceship and put him in the life saving chamber, the poison needs to be cleansed for him to heal in such a critical state!", yelled Egil.
"Humph, don't think that you can order around just because you have a past connection with Lord Demon Tiger", still the Law Integration cultivator did as he was told and then beca a flash with Joseph in his arms.
Why did they not use the ability of those who had reached or surpassed the Void Manipulation realm to move through space you might ask, the answer is easy, they couldn't.
The wastelands were too chaotic for anyone below the Heavenly Realms to move through space by itself, there was a really big chance one ended up ripped to pieces, and there were places who were a threat even for Heavenly Realm cultivators that randomly popped up in the wastelands, that's why most people used spaceships to travel here.
"If that guy fighting with Julian is a Heavenly Transformation cultivator who has suppressed his cultivation, then the ones leading the Demon Tomb sect must be Heavenly Conquerors", said Aster with a disdainful expression as he was following with the act.
Egil whose sight was focused on Mylene as he felt she could threat him, snorted.
"What are you afraid now, fate is a curious thing, I once helped a man who was being chased, and that sa man years later had a fortunate encounter which allowed him to reach the pinnacle of existence".
"Then while that idiot of Julian beca a servant of that little bitch's mother, Joseph showed his great talent just to be put in second place, I hoped Julian reconsidered things but he was keen in giving her the legacy of the family".
The old man clenched his fists before continuing.
"Luckily I knew sothing like this would happen, just by seeing how Julian treated that witch the first and only ti he t her, so I asked my friend to help get a "Conditional mory" elixir", said the man with a sinister smile.
"So you "forgot" about your own plans to deal with Vivian, that explains why she couldn't see how horrible your heart is", mumbled Mylene who recognized the elixir by its na.
Egil once again was convinced his supposition of Aster being like Vivian's mother, was right, which made him get angrier and yell.
"Of course, I learned my lesson since eting that witch and getting nearly killed by just she looking at ... I still rember those disdainful eyes and I couldn't risk being discovered by her".
"After that bitch left the secret realm, which I now know was containing a Spirit Wind, the elixir activated its second effect and I rembered my real self, luckily I was too far from her disgusting eyes so that she couldn't see through ", said Egil as he pointed at Vivian, who was a bit agitated right now.
"Lies, my mother died after giving birth to , uncle told the story!", she shouted.
But the old Egil who seed to enjoy seeing her reaction, laughed as he answered.
"Well once she dumped you here with us, she left but was supposed to return in a year or so, unfortunately I had drank the elixir which made forget my aversion to that witch, so I couldn't celebrate when Julian said he received a ssage saying she was in trouble and that maybe she won't be able to ever see you HAHAHA!".
Aster stole a gaze at Vivian, he was prepared to help her calm down if her poison got out of control, but then he saw her who had an "afflicted" expression, slightly smiling at him, and he inwardly laughed.
"Y-You", Vivian pointed at Egil as a silver pattern appeared on her shoulders and slowly spread through her arms, making her eyes lose their light, aning she lost her sight.
Egil was in bliss seeing Vivian "suffering"... so much that he didn't see the black coffin suddenly running away as the sa rock gate with screaming faces engraved on it, appeared in front of it.
Then a large piece of the sky darkened, a shadow covered about one hundred kiloters of it, though the origin of it had only one kiloter of size, a huge mostly black inked tal gate with decorations of different types of dragons engraved all over its surface, with the exception of the center of the upper arc where there were two dragons next to each other, one black and the other one golden, that's what suddenly appeared in the sky above the planet.
Aster smirked as he patted Kana's head.
"Lesson ti, breaking your enemy's spirit is a good tactic, but only when you have heavily wounded it, if you have it at your feet is the best mont to make it lose any idea of retaliation, not before that".
"Also clowns die because they talk too much".
"Mm, I'll listen to big brother~", mumbled Kana as she looked at the sky, which was so dark as well as that threatening black gate which seed as a sign that the world was about to end.
"What did you... aghhhhh!".
With Aster's words as so kind of indicator, and before Egil could attack them for feeling insulted, an spiral stream of black fire which took the shape of a dragon engulfed Egil, his screams could be heard coming from within the dragon's snout, for a split of a second before they were silenced.
Mylene jumped back into the golden armor as the impact of the black fire dragon created a massive sea of flas, which covered about a third part of the planet in which they were currently.
"Oi, your mom nearly killed ", mumbled Mylene.
Aster bitterly smiled, he raised his head and used his spirit sense to the maximum so he could see what was happening in the orbit of the planet.
...
"Who the hell are you, do you know you are getting in the way of the Demon Tomb sect... bleggh!".
The core elder was using all his might to defend himself, against an intruder who randomly appeared while he was stalling Julian.
The situation went to hell in a split of a second, first he from above could see a crack appearing on his beloved spatial coffin, the gift he got when he beca a core elder of the Demon Tomb sect.
Not only that, the spatial ship ran away leaving him behind stranded, but there was no problem yet, he just needed to kill Julian and then silence all the witnesses, then he could go to the evil sect which was on par with the rulers of this Heavenly Quadrant and pay an overpriced fee, which he was sure would be imposed to him, to return to the Demon Tomb sect, nothing out of the manual.
But then all the hairs on his body stood on their ends, he felt as if the grim reaper itself ca all the way from the nether realm just to get his little life.
And then when he saw that black tal gate, a horrible pressure oppressed his chest making him vomit blood, and that was just by being in its vicinity.
A second later, a goddess manifested herself in front of him, it was a tall woman, she was wearing a long one piece red dress with black decorations, her eyes were red as ruby gems and her long black hair cascaded down her waist, her pale skin made a beautiful contrast with the darkness of her hair, the space and that black gate which stood behind her.
The dress hugged her incredibly curvy body, but was loose enough to not make it look lewd, and instead just sensual, her charm would have made even the most chaste man, to look at her.
But all the previous paled in comparison with her beautiful face, she was perfect from all the angles, and yet nor the core elder or Julian dared to look at her right now, what would prevent them from stealing a gaze at such a goddess you might wonder.
And the answer is pretty simple, along with her eyes which were glowing in a threatening red light, her murderous aura was so high the space was starting to distort, maybe because she also seed to be outstanding in the body cultivation path, and the space in the wastelands is already unstable to begin with.
Both Julian and the core elder convinced themselves of the previous, because to affect the space to that extent here, one must be at least a... Heavenly Comprehension realm or its equal in the body path, as no one has surpassed or reached the peak of the Transcending realms in the soul path.
But then a second ago she punched towards the core elder, and although the latter stimulated his laws, to form his Heavenly Manifestation on his arms, condensing a pair of arm guards which ended in claws, the origin of his title of "Demonclaw".
As soon at that murderous goddess punched towards him, his Heavenly Manifestation along with his arms which he had crossed in front of him, exploded also cracking the best equipnt he had in his possession, a chest plate he bought from the best spirit blacksmith of the sect.
And that was not all, the image of the goddess flashed and with a second punch aid at him, the core elder beca a cot that was sent down towards the planet below.
"How dare you get in the way of and my darling's long-awaited reunion", said Lilia with a soft snort, before her eyes pierced the tens of thousands of kiloters that separated her from Aster, to look at him.
'How many days were since we entered the secret realm?', asked Aster to Esralda, with a bitter smile on his face.
'Well, the laws of space and ti distorted more after the portal from which you entered was opened... so I would say about a month, maybe two in the standard days used by humans', answered Esralda, as she looked at the one-sided massacre that happened a second ago.
'Damn, thanks to the heavens I was in this planet, or she would have blown it away with those attacks', thought Aster.
'Lewd and violent dragons', mumbled Rya in her sleep inside the mind space.
