Chapter 159 - Chapter 159: Asura God Strikes!

The crimson blood aura surrounding Karna reached its peak, radiating an overwhelming presence that seemed to defy the very essence of darkness. Kartavirya Arjuna, though initially confident, now faced the reality of an adversary who transcended the boundaries of mortal strength.

"You... you dare defy the shadows?" Kartavirya Arjuna muttered, his thousand hands trembling in disbelief.

Karna, now surrounded by the fading remnants of the shadow army, stepped forward with unwavering determination. The Blades of Chaos, still swirling around him, exuded an ethereal glow that contrasted starkly with the remnants of the celestial mist.

"Shadows are nothing but fleeting illusions," Karna declared, his voice resonating with an otherworldly certainty. "True strength lies in the unwavering light that dispels the darkness."

The celestial realm, once shrouded in the ominous atmosphere of shadows, now began to transform. The shimmering stardust beneath their feet regained its brilliance, and the cosmic winds carried a renewed sense of purity.

The Pandavas, Duryodhana, and Medea, who had been combating the shadows alongside Karna, looked on with a mix of awe and admiration. Karna's display of power had not only shattered the shadow army but also restored the celestial balance.

Kartavirya Arjuna, unwilling to admit defeat, roared with newfound determination. "I will not be bested by the likes of you! Shadows, arise once more!"

The celestial mist coalesced, giving rise to a fresh wave of shadowy figures. However, Karna, now fully attuned to the celestial energy, raised his hand, and the Blades of Chaos responded to his command.

"Blades of Chaos, Radiant Sweep!"

The ethereal blades, infused with the radiant energy of the celestial realm, swept through the shadows with unparalleled precision. The celestial arena became a canvas of light and shadow, each clash resonating with the determination to defy the encroaching darkness.

Kartavirya Arjuna, witnessing the repeated destruction of his shadow army, seethed with frustration. The Pandavas, Duryodhana, and Medea fought alongside Karna, their collective strength overwhelming the shadows at every turn.

"You are taking too much time on these annoying brats, Master is waiting for too long because of you."

A new voice interrupted the celestial battleground, causing a momentary pause in the clash between Karna and Kartavirya Arjuna. From the midst of the fading shadows emerged a figure—a blue-skinned man with a trident in his hand.

He wore a crown adorned with aquatic motifs, and his eyes gleamed with an unrestricted rage. The new arrival exuded an aura of authority, and the celestial realm seemed to acknowledge his presence.

"Who are you?" Karna questioned, his gaze narrowing at the enigmatic figure.

"I am Jalandhara, Lord of the Abyssal Depths and commander of the Shadow Forces," the blue-skinned figure declared, his trident radiating a sinister energy. "It seems Kartavirya Arjuna underestimated the challenge he faces. I shall deal with you myself."

[Karna, He is beyond Mahamaharathi. Full power is needed to even put a scratch on him.]

Karna, undeterred by the warning from Artemis, maintained his focus on the looming threat. The celestial realm crackled with tension as Jalandhara, the Lord of the Abyssal Depths, prepared to engage Karna in battle.

"Medea, My dear can you hold him off as I quickly defeat this man of a thousand hands."

Medea, in her Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python form, hissed affirmatively, her majestic presence expanding to face the formidable Jalandhara.

The celestial battleground became a symphony of clashing forces as Karna, with unwavering determination, turned his attention to Kartavirya Arjuna.

"Kartavirya Arjuna, your army of shadows has proven insufficient. Now, it's time for our one-on-one battle," Karna declared, his Blades of Chaos swirling with renewed intensity.

Kartavirya Arjuna, though visibly frustrated by the repeated defeats of his shadow army, grinned menacingly. "Very well, Angraj. Let's see if you can withstand the might of my thousand hands!"

Weapons of all types started appearing in the hands of Kartavirya Arjuna, his thousand hands holding an arsenal that showcased his mastery over various forms of combat. The celestial battleground crackled with anticipation as Karna and Kartavirya Arjuna locked eyes, preparing for the impending clash.

'Asura Mode~'

A transformation took place within Karna as he entered Asura Mode. His entire being changed from his height to compact muscles, a pair of horns grew on his head forming a crown, and his hair turned pitch-black instead of snow-white, and two pairs of new arms grew from his sides. The crimson blood aura surrounding him intensified, radiating a presence that seemed to transcend mortal limits.

Kartavirya Arjuna, witnessing Karna's transformation, couldn't help but feel a tinge of familiarity. "Are you somehow descendants of that Ravana?"

Karna, now in his formidable Asura Mode, stood with an imposing presence that echoed through the celestial realm. Divine Axe-Rhitta, Kusanagi, Chandrahas, and Vijaya Dhanush appeared one by one in his hands, each weapon radiating an extraordinary aura that resonated with Karna's augmented power.

Karna's eyes glowed with an intense crimson light as he faced Kartavirya Arjuna in his transformed state. The celestial arena quivered under the weight of their combined power, and even Jalandhara, the Lord of the Abyssal Depths, seemed to acknowledge the escalation of the battle.

"Descendants of Ravana, you say?" Karna replied, his voice resonating with a deep, otherworldly tone. "I am Karna, I am much more than Ravana himself, I am the very first ASURA GOD!!!"

The declaration reverberated through the celestial realm, sending shockwaves across the shimmering stardust beneath their feet. Karna, now fully unleashed in his Asura Mode, emanated a divine aura that surpassed mortal comprehension.

Kartavirya Arjuna, though prideful, couldn't deny the overwhelming power that Karna now possessed. His thousand hands tightened around the multitude of weapons he wielded, a reflection of the escalating tension in the celestial battleground.

Jalandhara, the Lord of the Abyssal Depths, observed the unfolding spectacle with a mixture of curiosity and caution. The shadows, momentarily quelled by Karna's radiant power, lingered at the fringes of the celestial arena, awaiting their moment to strike.

As the confrontation escalated, Karna's eyes locked onto Kartavirya Arjuna. The Blades of Chaos, now infused with the energy of his Asura Mode, emanated an ethereal glow. With unparalleled agility, Karna lunged forward, divine weapons in hand, to engage Kartavirya Arjuna in an epic clash.

The clash of their weapons sent shockwaves through the celestial realm, the sheer force of their blows creating ripples in the fabric of the cosmic winds. Karna, in his Asura Mode, displayed a level of martial prowess that transcended mortal limits. Each strike, each parry, echoed with the weight of divine power.

Kartavirya Arjuna, despite his formidable arsenal of weapons, found himself pushed to the limits by Karna's relentless assault. The crimson blood aura surrounding Karna intensified with each movement, an ominous sign of the Asura God's growing power.

"Asura God's Wrath~"

As Karna uttered those words, the very essence of the celestial realm trembled. His Asura Mode unleashed a torrent of divine power, and the celestial arena became a canvas for the manifestation of his wrath. The Blades of Chaos, now surrounded by the intense crimson aura, danced with unparalleled speed and precision.

Kartavirya Arjuna struggled to keep up with Karna's onslaught. The thousand hands that once held a formidable arsenal now found themselves overwhelmed by the divine weapons wielded by the Asura God. Each clash sent shockwaves through the celestial realm, distorting the fabric of reality.

The Pandavas, Duryodhana, and Medea, who had been engaged in their respective battles, paused to witness the awe-inspiring spectacle. Karna's Asura Mode was a revelation, a force that surpassed any opponent they had faced before.

[Karna, FINISH IT NOW!!!]

Artemis and Alter's voices sounded inside Karna's head but right after Alter spoke an energy even more terrible than before was released from Karna with purple lightning dancing around him.

Karna, now fueled by the additional surge of power, channeled the overwhelming energy coursing through his veins. The purple lightning danced around him, intertwining with the intense crimson aura of his Asura Mode. The celestial arena crackled with an unprecedented fusion of divine forces.

As Yogic Prana started accumulating, creating a vacuum of energies surrounding Karna, the very fabric of the celestial realm quivered. Kartavirya Arjuna, realizing the gravity of the situation, attempted to attack with Brahmastra, but Karna's divine senses were heightened in his Asura Mode. With a swift motion, a golden armor formed around Karna, deflecting the onslaught of the Brahmastra effortlessly.

"Your thousand hands, formidable as they may be, cannot grasp the true essence of divine power," Karna proclaimed, his voice cutting through the celestial winds. The golden armor, a manifestation of his heightened divine senses, radiated with an ethereal glow.

The Pandavas, Duryodhana, and Medea observed in awe as Karna, now in his Asura Mode with the added surge of power, stood as an unyielding force in the celestial battleground. Kartavirya Arjuna, despite his arsenal of a thousand hands, found himself facing an adversary whose strength transcended his understanding.

As Karna gathered the overwhelming energies around him, the Blades of Chaos pulsed with a radiant intensity. The celestial realm itself seemed to respond to Karna's power as if acknowledging the ascent of a divine being.
