Ascension of the Immortal Asura-Chapter 786: All Materials Obtained

John felt his blood rush with excitement as the core for his weapon was obtained, and it came from the demon as well. Based on what Daoist Eternal Weapon had said before, the demon was an incredibly powerful and talented one, and so the core being used was sure to be an exceptional one.

John could almost feel the scythe in his grip, as it was so close to being created. However, there was still one last portion to obtain; the material for the shaft of the scythe.

After obtaining the demon's core, Daoist Eternal Weapon turned to John once more, who shrugged as he already knew the question to come.

"That's all I have for the weapon," John shrugged. "I was told I only needed the blade and core materials, and if they were of high enough quality, you would provide the materials for the shaft. Unfortunately, I don't have anything of similar quality that could be used for the shaft," John explained.

After hearing John's words, Daoist Eternal Weapon fell silent as he sunk deep into thought. His mind perused over the multitude of materials he had at his disposal, searching for the most optimal match for the scythe blade and demon core. Eventually his eyes flickered for a moment, something that John noticed.

"Did you think of something to use for the shaft?" John asked curiously.

"Perhaps," Daoist Eternal Weapon mumbled, almost as if he were still deep in thought. His gaze cleared up and focused back on John after a short while, and a serious look appeared on his face.

"I might have something that would make your weapon even more terrifying, but it's a double-edged sword. To be safe, utilize your transformation, at the very least, the draconic one for now, and be prepared to use the other one as well," Daoist Eternal Weapon instructed John, who was surprised to hear the request, but nodded and did as instructed.

A powerful aura exploded off John's body as he unleashed his Dragon-God Shift, pushing his power and durability to the next level. At the same time, his guard was raised, prepared to unleash his Asura Transformation if needed.

Upon John's transformation, Daoist Eternal Weapon hand stretched outwards, and he tapped into one of the many spatial rings on his hand, taking out an object from within. As soon as the object appeared, a thick deathly aura flooded the room, as if it were trying to eradicate all life within. It was a familiar aura to John; one he had experienced countless times before.

The Dao of Death!

The aura washed over both John and Daoist Eternal Weapon, making them feel as if they had been plunged into a pit of death. However, with his incredibly durable body, Daoist Eternal Weapon was able to resist the effects of the aura, and was more concerned about John's ability to withstand it.

John stared at the object, which rested on the ground between him and Daoist Eternal Weapon. It was a large block of some unknown ore, pitch black in color as if it absorbed all light. The aura radiating off the ore washed over his body, attempting to decay his body into nothingness. Had John never done his training with his master, he would have no doubt found it hard to withstand this aura.

However, thanks to that hellish death-infused training Lilian had put him through, along with his freakishly durable body, John was able to resist the effects of the deathly aura. While it constantly ate away at his body and made him feel quite miserable, he was able to withstand the aura without perishing, or taking too much damage. His flesh rotted but was instantly regenerated by his Limiter of Healing, making it so that the only thing the aura really did was drain his Qi reserves.

"How is it? Are you able to withstand this aura?" Daoist Eternal Weapon asked John, who nodded his head in confirmation.

"Yes. I might have a bit of trouble withstanding it without my transformation, but it won't outright kill me," John confirmed, causing Daoist Eternal Weapon some surprise, as this aura was strong enough to kill Dao Transformation experts if they weren't careful.

Seeing Daoist Eternal Weapons surprised look, a wry smile appeared on John's face as he recalled his master's hellish training.

"My master specializes in the Dao of Death, and has bathed me in that dreadful aura more times than I can count. With that training, I've become quite resistant to the Dao of Death," John explained.

"Haha, your master sounds like quite the character," Daoist Eternal Weapon laughed upon hearing such a thing, as a master who would subject their disciple to such a hellish training was quite unorthodox, and was to his liking.

"You can say that again," John grumbled, before shifting the subject. "What exactly is this ore? I've never seen or felt anything like it before?"

"This ore is called Stellar Void Ore, and it is beyond rare. The source of the ore is from beyond this planet, and it can only be found when a piece of ore falls down from space. Not only is it rare, it is also incredibly profound. Its durability is unmatched, and it has a unique property to absorb whatever is in the surrounding and infuse it into the ore," Daoist Eternal Weapon explained as he reached out and touched the ore, storing it in his spatial ring once more.

"This particular ore was found deep within a land of death, and had been sitting there for countless millennia, absorbing the deathly aura surrounding it. I had yet to find a suitable weapon to utilize this ore, but I think yours might be the perfect match. With this ore as your shaft, each attack you unleash will be naturally infused with the Dao of Death, making it even more formidable. The only drawback is the constant aura of death you need to withstand when wielding the weapon, but it appears that won't be much of a concern. So how about it? Would you like me to use this ore as the material for your shaft?" Daoist Eternal Weapon asked John.

"Yes, please do!" John agreed, as the material was far beyond what he could have hoped for.

"Perfect, then I will start crafting your weapon within the day," Daoist Eternal Weapon confirmed, equally excited to get started on such a unique and profound weapon. "This weapon will no doubt be the finest weapon I have ever created, and perhaps the finest weapon this world has ever seen!"
