Chapter 381: Let Me Help You
“We will help as well,” Night, Blue, and Aegis all flew up into the sky.
“Let me help as well,” Hyesi said and was about to stand up when somebody grabbed him. It was his son, Ning.
“No father, you are injured. Let us take fight him instead,” he said and brought along his sons and nephews to fight the monster.
Ning wanted to stop them but didn’t. “Keep him busy for a while. I will think of an idea,” Ning said.
“Yes, Inikaka,” they all replied.
Before the fight even began, Ning knew they were all going to lose for sure. Ely’s artifacts and Anya’s strength couldn’t amount to the sheer power Jha’Akim could release from his cultivation base alone.
Not to mention the many skills and powers he had acquired from taking in the bloodline of the many.
Night’s speed, Blue’s strength, and Aegis’ defense couldn’t hold up to Jha’Akim either. He was faster, stronger, and more durable than all of them.
He also had the powers of all 3 of them, so that didn’t help either.
A big fight broke out and sounds of the booms could be heard from everywhere. Ning couldn’t even keep up with the fight with his eyes and could only guess what was happening based on the sound.
Hyesi looked helpless and he stayed on the ground with both of his arms broken. All he could do was stop the random auras and shockwaves from hitting Ning.
Ning needed to think of another way to kill the man. And for that, he needed to know if he could even be killed in the first place.
* * * * *
Death Rejection, a skill that could allow a person to have 3 lives, instead of 1. It was a skill that defied the laws of the universe and messed with the soul of its host to keep him alive.
12 thousand years ago, when Jha’Akim was cultivating to enter the 2nd Spirit Formation realm and was in the midst of the breakthrough, he was caught by the many beasts and taken over to the center of the Central continent to seal him away.
During that time, they had put him in the coffin made out of a giant block of Primordial Holy Jade. The coffin blocked all Qi and aura from escaping and entering, thus Jha’Akim no longer had any source of Qi to continue his breakthrough, and went through Qi deviation.
That was his first death.
He quickly came back to life as the system held his soul hostage from the natural laws and put it back onto the same body.
Only, he lost all of his cultivation bases because of the Qi deviation. So, he had to wait for the clone he had set up to come back to life and help him gain back his cultivation base through the many beast’s bloods he was fed through the crystal he left behind.
Once his strength was back to normal and even better afterward, he planned on his escape. When he realized what had happened to the clone, he decided to move forward with the plan.
He killed the beast and left for the origin to break through one final time before the world had changed. Except, his plans were foiled by Ning.
And he was also responsible for his 2nd death.
“So… ” Ning asked the system, “if I can kill him again, he will die for certain?”
“No chance of him returning in any way?” he asked.
“Dammit! How do I do that though?” Ning wondered. He heard a bam and another body with torn and broken limbs fell onto the ground.
There were about 6 different ones like that by now, and all of them were Hyesi’s descendants.
Ning quickly walked up to the Hekti who had just fallen while Hyesi could only walk up to him, not even able to hold him up while Ning fed him the pill.
Hyesi was feeling worse than Ning right now, seeing everyone he had watched grow up from childhood be on the brink of death while he was down here doing nothing.
“Inikaka, have you thought of something by now?” he asked.
“No,” Ning said. “But I have found something. If I can kill him again, he will die for sure.”
Hyesi’s eyes shined. “Are you sure?”
“Yes, absolutely,” Ning said. “He will die and won’t return any longer.”
BAM
Another person fell to the ground. Ning quickly ran up to the person and saw that it was Hijaka. He was barely holding on to life with almost half the organs in his chest ripped away.
“No, my grandson,” Hyesi cried out when he saw Hijaka in such a state. Ning quickly brought out a pill and fed him. He also brought out a paste and put it on top of his chest to heal him faster.
Just as he was done, another one fell a little further away. This one was less injured, so they were relieved, but when Ning tried to pull a pill out, he realized that he was all out of it.
“Oh no,” he said. “I’m out of healing pills.” He still brought out a medicinal paste but it wouldn’t work the same way a pill did.
“Inikaka,” Hyesi called him when he saw that. “Are you absolutely sure he will remain dead?”
Ning got annoyed now. “Why do you keep asking that so many times? YES! YES! YES!”
Hyesi smiled when he heard that. “Then let me kill him.”
“You will kill him?” Ning looked confused for a second before realizing what he meant. “No, no, no, no, no! I’m not letting you kill yourself.”
“What else can we do, Inikaka?” Hyesi asked.
“I will think of some way,” he said.
“And while you do that, more of my descendants will die, Inikaka,” Hyesi said.
“But…” Ning tried to argue.
“Please let me do it. Please take him away from here while I can kill him without worrying about getting any of them caught up in it,” Hyesi said.
“Please Inikaka, just this one time, let me help you!”
