Who is next?
Riddick retracted his killing intent and returned to his place. The remaining lackeys had now understood his strength and his strength so they no longer dared to anger him again.
Time passed by and Riddick returned to his previous state of calmness, he was now wholly in meditative state when suddenly a voice rang out near him
"You are quite strong my friend. What is your name? I know every disciple who have come here to compete in Great trail but I have never seen you before. Which sect do you belong to? Ahh! I forgot to introduce my self. How rude can I get?
My name is Nile, nice to meet you. Hehe... You don't have to get angry, I am a friend."
Nile was quite friendly and his body language made everyone feel at ease. He had a pleasant smile plastered on his face and his words were refined. All of this gave people a very favourable impression.
However, Riddick narrowed his eyes as he saw Nile because he felt that something was wrong. The outer impression given by Nile was perfect but he felt a nasty intent underneath it. A intent he is all the more familiar with, "Killing intent."
Riddick smiled coldly in his heart as he saw Nile hiding his killing intent behind his friendly smile. It was useless to hide something like killing intent in front of Riddick because he can detect it almost instinctively.
Having suffered under the assault of the most terrifying killing intent for severally months in his own soul fragment. He now understood the word known as Killing intent much better than any immoral.
Usually when one is exposed to a kind of sensation repeatedly, they gradually starts to grow numb to it. But, killing intent was different. It makes you feel that you are on the verge of death so your body grows more and more sensitive to it.
Nile who was cheerfully laughing suddenly moved and a sharp sword appeared in his hands. In the next instant he stomped his legs and made a chopping motion aimed straight at Riddick.

"Humph!" Riddick let out a cold snort as he saw the chopping sword, ever since he had sensed killing intent, he had been at high alert so it was impossible to catch him off guard.
"Twist" Riddick roared and Yama who was twisted around his hand sprang like a snake and twisted around the sword practically the same instant Nile started his slash.
"Fool! Fighting a sword with a whip in closequarters. You death will teach you a lesson."
Riddick eyes only gleamed slightly as he said, "Change."
The black whip which was coiled around the sword suddenly became stiff and instantly started to twist like a python while crushing the sword to dust in the process. The whip which condensed to its grip amazingly took the form of the long sleek black sword.
The past month when Riddick trained in the Welkin palace has been the most productive month in his life as far as he was considered. In just a month he understood the change in his Qi and had also managed to grasp the technique he had gained by loosing his body to Cesar but the best among all his progress was the skill he learned after repeated instructions from Yama, "Shape manipulation ".
This was a skill which let him change Yama to a weapon of his choice. Shape manipulation is a trait present in many deva class weapons, then how could Yama, being a heavenly weapon not possess such a basic trait.
Nile stared at the sleek black sword with a small red jewel at its base in astonishment. He could not understand how the black whip changed into a sword. Though the shape manipulation isn't a rare thing in higher deva planes, in the material plane of Asgard. It was like a tale of legends.
Riddick who was nonchalantly swinging his sword said in a mocking tone, "You wanted to fight with a sword, right?"
Nile's face darkened then he smiled coldly and said, "I don't know from where you acquired such a treasure but today you will certainly die by my hands and that whip of yours will be mine."
Riddick snickered and said, "You want my weapon and you declare that you want to kill me. Don't regret you decision Nile."
"Enough talk, For a mortal like you one punch of mine is enough to shatter your bones and tear your tendons." Nile immediately tensed his muscles and charged like bull.
Riddick who was still swinging Yama threw him into the air and lowered his body while tensing his Rectus femoris muscle at same time. The pale yellow Qi in his dantian rolled like sea waves and a Qi Strom condensed in his hands as it passed through the meridian of his arm, "The brachial artery."
"Crunch!"
A loud crunching sound was heard as Riddick clasped his fist and punched Nile like a lightning.

"Boom!"
Loud explosion was heard and the dust flew like a cloud covering the two individuals. In the next instant however, a painful howl was heard as Nile limped his way out of the dust cloud. His entire right arm was split like butter and his body was covered with his own blood.
"Thud!" "Thud!" "Thud!"
In the quite hall filled with no sounds except for the painful moans of Nile, the footsteps of Riddick sounded very loud.
He still walked as slowly as he can and reached Nile with his black sword in his hands. Nile became pale as he saw the black sword, he instinctively tried to fly away but the sword extended into a whip and held him by his neck.
Nile screamed as be couldn't budge the whip no matter how he tried, "Don't you dare kill me, I am a disciple of the Ling school. My head master has already signed the contract and is a part of the school alliance so you won't survive if you harm me."
Riddick laughed loudly and said, "Fuck your background. Why should I care about your Ling school when they can't come here to save you."
Riddick hand reached Nile like a death god and caught his head in a death grip. He was about to crush him when a voice interrupted him
"I would stop if I were you my friend. It seems that you know nothing about the alliance of the sects. All our masters had formed a pact that none of their students would be harmed outside the ring. Any one who dares to harm any student of any sect will be killed by the combined forces of all sects.
You have already breached the pact but I will give you face and let you go. Retreat this instant and let go of Nile."
Riddick frowned as he heard this, a pact to protect their students. His lips formed a cruel smile as he said, "Thank you for your advice my friend. I understand the issue now and I have decided on my answer as well.
I say, "Fuck your alliance."
Riddick tightened his hand over Nile's head and muttered, "Hell devour"
A simple two words which will one day create havoc around the entire world. Nile who was like a ragged doll suddenly became limp and his body dried up within a second and fell lifelessly on the floor.
Riddick who devoured Nile licked his lips as he thought, "So this is the sensation of devouring cultivation. Not bad, I fear that I would get addicted to this sensation."
Hell devour was a combined technique formed by launching both Thousand Hell prison and Soul devour at once. Thousand Hell prison had no devouring abilities while the soul devour had no restricting abilities. Individually they both had weaknesses bit combined they became a monstrous technique unrivalled in the path of devil's cultivation.
Every person who expected Riddick to back away roared in fury as they saw him ruthlessly killing Nile like a cockroach.
"Impudent!"
"Kill him!"
"Bastard!"
"For Nile."
Various roars reverberated in the hall as the disciples of various sects charged like mad people who went into a frenzy.
A tall man with large built charged first and jumped high before falling straight on Riddick.
Riddick who killed Nile smiled further and flickered Yama who was drenched in blood, the slender whip bulged like balloon and turned hard like steel. The hand grip transformed into hard steel and A hammer of death appeared in Riddick hands the instant the tall man jumped into the air.
"The next meal."
Riddick muttered as he constricted his leg muscles and swung the hammer like a blacksmith on anvil. The tall man was helpless as the speed of the hammer was far greater than his own speed, it was like a lightning in spite of its weight. The hammer came crashing like a thunder and smashed him to the floor.
Originally he had confidence that he would survive even after taking the attack of the hammer as he was an immortal while the opponent was a mortal. But, he far underestimated the strength of Riddick who had Yellow dragon Qi flowing through his veins.
The hammer was like a giant thunder and carried a force of a ton. It smashed the tall man so hard that he instantly became a pulp.
Another immortal who closely followed the tall man took this opportunity and directly slashed at Riddick with his short sword.
"Rip!"
A terrifying ripping sound resounded in the hall as the man's throat was ripped by a sharp spike. It was none other than Yama who extended himself and formed into a spike killing the immortal in a instant.
"Biiiiiing!"
A hollow sound rang out again as Riddick licked his lips, both the tall man and the other immortal became dried up corpses the next instant as the Hell devour was completed.
Gazing at the immortal who now had turned cautious as they saw the three corpses at his feet he opened his mouth and asked, "Who is next?"

Transcendence?
Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it, or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur) ——————————————————————————————— Reading Order of the Multiverse-Books ——————————————————————————————— Transcendence? is a novel about reincarnation, love, hate and war. And everything else that's included. It follows the main characters, as they climb to the top of their society. And lose their humanity in the process to become something beyond human. It's settled in the same universe as Until death?. It can be seen as a prequel. But I plan for it to be a stand alone book. Nobody has to read Until death? in order to enjoy Transcendence?. There will be cool chapters, sad chapters, romantic chapters and funny chapters. Of course there will be boring chapters too. I believe that some explanation is necessary in every novel. Though I hope that there will be more funny chapters. How a chapter turns out always depends on my mood.
