Chapter 1548: Asura Queen Rebirth
"Are you ready?" Klaus asked, holding Queenie’s hand.
"Yes." She nodded, ready to become a Supreme.
Like the rest of her sisters, she had also recalled her entire past life, so even as an Immortal Lord, her danger level was on another level.
Klaus had already concluded that when it came to combat power, Queenie was the most dangerous among them, followed by Vampire Queen Tifa.
Queenie was a menace during the Blood Era, and Tifa was a Heavens Executioner who nearly killed Magnus, the Paragon of War.
Of course, his judgment on this might be biased toward Queenie, whose past life ended when she was merely a Demigod, yet she possessed the power to kill even Celestials.
This time, Klaus wanted to make her a Supreme, something most Asuras never got to experience because of the evolutionary demands of their race. As beings who only grew through bloodshed, leveling up easily was an issue unless, of course, they became savages and killed just about anyone.
The Asura God made it so that even if his people killed humans, they wouldn’t absorb their blood. So the majority of them remained Demigods, yet they were still ranked as the strongest race.
Perhaps it was their danger level that led the Heavens Court, in alliance with the demons, to eradicate them.
He knew the Asura Race would return stronger than ever. But he also wanted them to return and meet an even stronger Asura Queen.
"I only know of your strength up to the Demigod stage, so whatever happens afterward, if you feel any discomfort, let me know."
"Okay."
The process began a few seconds later.
On the ground, everyone watched with their fingers crossed. They had heard great things about the Asura Race from Queenie and several others who didn’t seem bothered by the lies spread by the Heavens Court.
"They said one Asura can dominate an entire battle as long as there is enough blood on the battlefield," Lady Idalie, Queen Leah’s Supreme-ranked sister, muttered while looking in Queenie’s direction.
Queen Leah smiled and said, "Big sister, the Asura Race was known as the strongest for a reason. I even learned they were the ones who helped the vampires unlock more of their bloodline abilities. It’s sad that they joined the Heavens Court in attacking their benefactors."
"Not all the vampires joined that campaign," King Alric interjected. "From what I know, only the black, green, and blue-eyed vampires betrayed the Asura Race. The red, white, brown, and purple-eyed vampires did not."
"Even so, they stood by and watched their benefactors get slaughtered," Lady Narcisa added, causing everyone to sigh.
Unlike a few races that aided the Asura Race, like the Blood Demons and Blood Angels, the rest either betrayed them or remained neutral during the battle.
"Everything is in the past now, I guess. When the Asura Race returns, everything will become clear," Grim stated, looking forward to seeing how the universe would react.
If only any of them knew that in no time, Queenie would bring her people home.
When she became an Immortal Lord, she finally remembered what had happened, and for a moment, she could only smile.
It had never been their plan to fight at all. They discovered an abandoned miniature universe and planned to migrate there. However, that place was packed with billions of vicious beasts, so they had to first create a safe zone there.
They had only just started clearing them out when they were attacked by the heavenly court.
So, using the power of Blood Transfer, they sent every last soul core there, making it so that only their bodies remained behind to fight. The moment a body was destroyed here, it would reform there.
While it cost them some of their cultivation, since reforming their bodies required more energy than they could provide, it was still better than allowing the entire universe to believe they had truly been eradicated.
Queenie and Klaus stayed behind to seal it, so she now knew where the gateways leading to this miniature universe were located and what was required to open it.
The moment she became a Supreme, that would be the first thing she would do.
After an hour, Queenie finally stepped into the ranks of a Demigod.
At that moment, the domain that had claimed countless lives awakened, and everyone had to move back several kilometers while shielding themselves.
The [Wailing Blood Sea], the domain Queenie had cultivated in the past, awakened, and at once, the blood sea surged forward, swallowing both her and Klaus.
It was one of the few domains known to affect the soul, mind, and body. In fact, Klaus had absolutely no idea how Queenie managed to comprehend such a domain when she became a Demigod back then.
When she activated this domain, her opponents would have to fight her on three different planes. The first was the physical battle fought with weapons.
The second was a mental battle in which those with weak minds fell easily.
Then there was the Soul Battle. This battle was fought in the astral plane. No matter how monstrous the opponent was, the moment she activated this domain, it became the endgame for them.
Only a few people survived the [Wailing Blood Domain], and one of them happened to be her sweetheart.
Klaus looked like a child who had received a Nintendo Switch from Santa on Christmas as he explored the domain he had admired countless times in the past.
"With her domain unlocked, the strongest woman I have ever known has been reborn," Klaus muttered, watching as Queenie was slowly pushed toward the God Ascension stage.
A few minutes later, the domain deactivated, and Divine Qi exploded out of her body, showing that she had become a god.
Klaus tried his best to hold back his joyous laughter, but, feeling the untamed power surging from Queenie’s body, he raised his head and laughed.
"What is happening?"
King Alric finally asked, sensing Queenie’s Divine Qi surging even while she remained at the God Ascension stage.
Naturally, that shouldn’t have happened. The only way one’s Divine Qi could grow was by ranking up. But despite remaining at the same stage, Queenie’s Divine Qi was already comparable to that of a God King.
Klaus turned and looked at the old man.
"No need to look so surprised, Old Man. Queenie was once a Demigod who killed thousands of gods, hundreds of Supremes, and over a dozen Celestials. Her understanding of Divine Qi, Supreme Qi, and Celestial Qi, while she can’t use the latter two yet, surpasses many.
"So, since she never got the chance to become a god in her past life, all that accumulated knowledge is now manifesting the moment she became a god."
"Is that even possible?" Queen Leah asked, stunned yet happy for Queenie.
"No wonder the Asura Race was the strongest race to ever walk the face of the universe."
Four hours later, Queenie was pushed to the peak of the Universal God stage, where the concentration of Divine Qi was so intense that even Klaus was stunned.
He knew everyone experiences different ascensions, and based on their performances, they get an equivalent of that power.
But sensing Queenie’s aura, he could tell her power had already far surpassed that of an ordinary god. Still, he remained quiet, his attention focused on the subtle Supreme Qi surging out from her body.
’Soon,’ Klaus said inwardly and started waiting for his one true Asura Queen to become a Supreme so she could finally awaken her own [Throne of Blood] and [Sword of Death].
It was something he discovered from the Asura God’s memories. At the Supreme stage, Queenie would awaken these relics, which, according to his memories, would grant her control over her own Dao.
’The Dao of the Blood Queen.’
