Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 114

Suddenly.

In the vast sky, a massive figure towering at a hundred thousand meters burst through the clouds, bringing a tremendous aura as it appeared over Vantage Mountain.

In the next moment, a sound like a whale’s call echoed across the heavens, shaking the entire Pure Land Kingdom.

Countless people cast astonished looks, left dumbfounded.

“This, this is the Kunpeng?!” The Abbot, well-informed, instantly recognized its origins, his expression one of disbelief.

The ancient divine beast Kunpeng, the invincible king among the demon race, had inexplicably appeared over Vantage Mountain.

What was going on?

Moreover, judging by its aura, it was still at the Tribulation Stage!

This was a legit demon emperor!!

The Kunpeng flapped its wings, opening its vast abyss-like mouth, as countless waves of terrifying energy gathered frantically, then unleashed a colossal beam of light that pierced the heavens.

Boom…

The beam slammed into the mountain-protecting formation, causing violent tremors on its surface.

On the Kunpeng was a being with a mouse’s head and a human body, waving its tiny hands, excitedly shouting, “Master! Shushu and Fifth Junior Brother are here to help you!”

Beside it, the Great Mushroom King shrank back, seeing the prince with countless people pointing at him, social anxiety flaring up, wishing to hide away immediately.

“Fifth Junior Brother, Master said we need to go down and fight together!” Bai Xiaoxi said, tugging at its mushroom head seriously.

The Great Mushroom King wanted to cry but had no tears. Why did I have to be dragged into this mess?!

Seeing this.

The Abbot widened his eyes in shock, exclaiming, “This Kunpeng is actually your mount?!”

Previously, due to the camera angle, he hadn’t clearly seen Ye Junlin’s mount; he only guessed it was a massive creature by silhouette.

But now, he was genuinely frightened!

Only at such a height could one truly appreciate how terrifying the Kunpeng’s potential was.

However, this legendary creature, thought to be long gone, reappeared as a mount!

Even the Abbot felt it was too outrageous!

He looked at the silver-haired young man with a smirk, filled with strong doubts inside his heart.

How did this guy find and tame it?

Would a dignified demon emperor at the Tribulation Stage really submit to a human powerhouse?

The Abbot couldn’t wrap his head around it!

As the king of the demon race, the Kunpeng’s full-blown attack would undoubtedly be calamity-level destruction.

Previously, it had played the role of a sweeper, but now, with a true chance to show its power, it seemed particularly eager.

Boom!!!

Another destructive beam shot from its mouth, wildly crashing into the mountain-protecting formation, stirring up surging waves of energy.

The scene was terrifying, heart-stopping.

“Shushu is coming to help too!” Bai Xiaoxi squeezed her small fist and punched forward, her fist radiating golden divine light, exuding chaotic vibes.

“Fifth Junior Brother!”

Prompted by Sister Bai, the Great Mushroom King, despite being reluctant, had to join in.

Boom!

The Great Mushroom King tapped into the Azure Emperor Longevity Sutra’s power, a green beam tearing through the void, like divine punishment descending upon the formation.

In the face of a combined strike from three Tribulation Stage beings, the mountain-protecting formation finally showed signs of distress, cracks appearing on its surface, as the light curtain enveloping Vantage Mountain broke a hole.

Instantly.

With their heads pounding, the people finally came to their senses and were electrified by the scene, scrambling to flee.

“Run!”

Cries burst forth, the scene turning chaotic.

“Come back! Everyone come back!!” The Abbot roared in anger.

With a swipe, a palm print of Buddha Light rolled out, aiming to squish all the fleeing cultivators.

Boom!

The palm print was dispersed by Ye Junlin’s wave, showering down glistening starlight.

“Surprised? Unexpected?” Ye Junlin said playfully.

The Abbot’s face darkened like water, a wave of killing intent swelling inside.

He hated this guy to the core!!

If it weren’t for his provocation, how could the Hanging Temple have come to this?

Now, with these people managing to escape, if word got out, would the Hanging Temple ever have a foothold again?

“What an opportunity, let’s retreat!” the Crown Prince exclaimed excitedly.

“Little sister, why are you still dazed? Let’s go!” Princess Mingyue stared blankly at Ye Junlin’s figure, then was grabbed by the Second Prince as they rushed out with their guards.

Shush!

Then, countless cultivators streamed out, fleeing from Vantage Mountain.

“Look, someone’s coming out!”

Various factions in the royal capital were all shaken.

“Crown Prince, did the Hanging Temple encounter an invasion of evil? Should we go in for reinforcement?”

A middle-aged commander hurriedly asked.

The Crown Prince’s eyes blazed in anger, “Reinforcement my ass! They’re just demon monks possessed by evil!”

“Ah?”

The middle-aged commander was shocked.

Wasn’t that a veiled insult to the Hanging Temple’s monks?

Such rebellious remarks could lead to a death sentence in the Pure Land Kingdom!

“Big brother, we must return and report this to Father!” The Second Prince looked fearfully at Vantage Mountain, “No matter the outcome, our Pure Land Kingdom is about to change.”

Shush!

Seeing the light curtain was breached, Bai Xiaoxi pulled the Great Mushroom King and leaped off the Kunpeng, “Master, we’re here!”

Ye Junlin smiled, “You’ve come at a good time, let’s smash these shameless bald donkeys together!”

“Okay!”

Bai Xiaoxi dashed in, her tiny fists clenched, striking out as the air exploded, waves of force rolling.

“Ah…” In the crowd, figures occasionally got sent flying, landing in pools of blood.

Seeing such chaos, the Great Mushroom King hid in a corner, just wanting to watch it all unfold.

“Hmm? Is there a mushroom here?”

“Heavens, that’s a precious medicinal king! Quickly, let’s suppress it; mushroom soup would surely taste delicious!”

Several elders of the Hanging Temple lit up, rushing over eagerly.

“Why are you coming to mess with me?!”

Hearing the words “mushroom soup,” the Great Mushroom King snapped, instantly transforming into human form.

This figure had a standard bowl-cut hairstyle, skin as dark as chocolate, thick eyebrows and big eyes, furiously shooting out several green vines that pierced through these elders, leaving them bleeding profusely.

“My God!”

Many who originally wanted to take advantage of it in the Hanging Temple were now paralyzed with fear.

At that moment, engulfed in rage, the Great Mushroom King commanded countless vines, tearing in and out, creating a scene of utter carnage.

Though Ye Junlin and his crew were few in number, their combat quality was top-notch.

After all, they were all Tribulation Stage beings!

Not long into the battle, the internal casualties in the Hanging Temple started mounting.

Boom boom boom boom~!

In the final clash, two figures distanced themselves.

Ye Junlin mocked, “Old bald donkey, looks like your situation isn’t so good, huh?”

The Abbot’s facial muscles twitched.

He genuinely never expected this demon to be so terrifying, with such fearsome power among his disciples.

This lineup was truly exaggerated!
