Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 206

Boom!

Xue Wuhen was the first to react, unleashing an overwhelming aura that shot up to the sky, his eyes ablaze with fury, swirling with murderous intent that distorted the void around him.

“Wan Changwei! You traitor! Dog of the alien races!!!” The white-robed sword immortal pointed his sword, seething with contempt, roaring.

“Right? You lowlife! You were just pretending before; are you even human?!”

“You shameless scoundrel, bringing shame to the Human Race! How dare you betray the Yuhua Sect, Eastern Domain’s number one force!”

“Traitor dog, you won’t die a good death! Karma will come for you!”

The cultivators erupted in a cacophony of rage, their curses echoing in every direction, brimming with boundless fury.

Their eyes were filled with anger, hatred etched on their faces as they glared at Wan Changwei, who was looking all too pleased with himself, wishing they could strip him skin and bones, drink his blood!

“Hehe.”

Hearing the uproar of angry shouts, Wan Changwei maintained his mocking smile, like an outsider who didn’t give a damn.

“Hey, they’re calling you a dog, how are you going to counter that?” Mingye chuckled, teasing him.

Noticing the crowd’s expressions, Wan Changwei secretly thought his moment to shine had come, cleared his throat dramatically, and said solemnly:

“As the saying goes, those who know the times are wise; what’s wrong with being a dog? Serving the divine envoy and being loyal to the Ming tribe is my greatest honor.”

“They think I would be defensive, but they are sorely mistaken; I am proud of this identity!”

“To serve the divine envoy as a dog, I take pride in it!!”

At these words, Mingye’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, quickly replaced by deep appreciation.

This was a rare talent, worth nurturing!

Sensing his waning favor, King Dāngyōu felt a wave of crisis and deliberately provoked:

“My fellow, since you’ve said so much, why not bark a few times to amuse the divine envoy?”

“What?!”

Wan Changwei looked shocked.

What’s your deal? I have no enmity with you, why stab me in the back?

Not cool!

“Oh? Seems like this fellow is unwilling. Let me remind you, deceiving the divine envoy is a death penalty!” King Dāngyōu sneered, watching the show with delight.

Wan Changwei’s expression darkened; he never expected the other party had such malicious intent to backstab him at this moment.

As he helplessly glanced at Mingye for help, he was met with a cold response: “What I hate most is a fool who doesn’t understand their own worth!”

The underlying threat was palpable.

Wan Changwei was stunned.

Is this how you treat someone publicly? Have you guys never read “Emotional Intelligence”?

I may not be human, but you are the true dogs!

Under the gaze of everyone, feeling the oppressive pressure mounting, cold sweat trickled down Wan Changwei’s forehead. Internally cursing, he still forced a smile, saying:

“Haha, it’s no big deal! Since the divine envoy wants to hear it, I’ll bark a few times to lighten the mood.”

With that, Wan Changwei steadied his energy, glaring with rage, and went all out shouting:

“Woof woof woof! Woof woof woof! Woof woof woof woof!!!”

His barks were impressively lifelike and rang out loudly, echoing across the skies.

“Ahahaha…” Mingye roared with laughter; he hadn’t laughed this hard in ages, praising, “Wonderful, wonderful, those barks were so realistic!”

Definitely a valuable asset that needs honing!

“Thank you for the compliment, divine envoy. Barking like a dog is my specialization,” Wan Changwei said, beaming.

King Dāngyōu looked utterly shocked.

Wait, are you being serious?

Realizing that this guy had completely won the divine envoy’s favor, King Dāngyōu thought his actions were particularly foolish; had he known this guy was so ruthless, he wouldn’t have provoked him.

Watching their sect leader barking like a dog in front of everyone, the Yuhua Sect’s cultivators felt their worldviews shatter, finding it utterly absurd, but they had no words to rebut.

Old Liu stood dumbfounded, then sighed deeply.

Perhaps this is the biggest reason he couldn’t become the sect leader back in his day.

“Damn, that bark was spot on!”

“When a person becomes despicable, they can’t be defeated!”

“Ah, I regret it so much, why did I listen to that dog!”

…

The cultivators were furious to the point of pain, their eyes bloodshot, hating Wan Changwei to the bone.

“Wan Changwei, you and your Yuhua Sect will be nailed to the pillar of shame for the Human Race! You will never reincarnate!” Xue Wuhen shouted angrily.

Li Wujie gritted his teeth, “Damn it, had I known this old bastard was so shameless, I would’ve cut him down at the Great Wall!”

Hong Qianye’s expression was as dark as water; she had no idea she had been played.

At this moment.

Wan Changwei, pointed at by a thousand accusing fingers, casually flicked his sleeves, straightened his back, and lectured:

“Childish, history is written by the victors; even if you all meet your end here, who will remember what happened today?”

“And my Yuhua Sect, with the divine envoy’s help, will undergo a rebirth and become an undying legacy of all ages!!”

Saying this, Wan Changwei’s eyes gleamed with yearning, excitedly spreading his arms as if to embrace a bright future.

Clap, clap, clap~

The crisp sound of applause rang out.

At that moment, it felt incredibly out of place.

Everyone turned toward the sound, puzzled, and when they saw who it was, their expressions turned to confusion.

“Wonderful, wonderful.”

“I must say, you truly are a talent!” Ye Junlin clapped his hands and sighed, “In terms of despicable shamelessness, you’ve reached the pinnacle, especially that dog bark of yours, it sounded just like a real one!”

“Changwei, you do not disappoint!”

Hearing this, a glimmer of cold light flashed in Wan Changwei’s eyes as he grimaced, “You, Ye, hold your tongue!”

“With the divine envoy present, today is your death day!”

Then Wan Changwei respectfully bowed to Mingye, saying, “Divine Envoy, this is Ye Junlin, who has repeatedly interfered with your plans.”

“I see,”

Mingye narrowed his eyes dangerously, locking onto the silver-haired youth, the one he currently viewed as his biggest threat, smirking:

“Ye Junlin, since my arrival in the Kunlun Realm, you are the most troublesome opponent I’ve encountered.”

“If you were outside, I might have struggled against you, but unfortunately, you fell into my trap; this time, you will inevitably die!”

“No one can save you, that’s what I say!”

His tone was unyielding, filled with strong confidence.

“Just relying on you few?”

Ye Junlin raised an eyebrow; he sensed that Mingye and his group’s cultivation levels were around True Immortal Level Four, and with that level, they were not enough for him to break a sweat.

Goodness, what’s their confidence based on to say such a thing?

Swish!

The next second, Ye Junlin made a move, activating the Human King Seal and striking with determination.

Reaching True Immortal Level Six, he once again called upon the Human King Seal. With the overwhelming Immortal Power behind it, the attack’s potential was beyond terrifying.

Boom!

The blood moon hanging in the sky trembled.

The Human King Seal, carrying the imposing momentum to suppress all beings, descended, threatening to reduce the entire royal city to ashes.

King Dāngyōu gasped; the power of this move seemed far greater than the divine envoy!

Even Wan Changwei was frightened, his scalp tingling, his face pale.

Woof!

Did I gamble wrong?

Yet, Mingye’s expression remained unfazed as he raised his hand and conjured a spell, coldly commanding, “Open!”

Boom!!!

With an earth-shattering sound echoing through the skies.

Countless obscure ancient runes rose like tadpoles, surrounding the armies of the Eastern Domain, forming a cyan barrier in the void as if an inverted giant bowl tightly covered them.

Boom!

The Human King Seal crashed against the barrier, instantaneously shattering!

The cyan barrier stood intact, radiating a sacred aura.

“This is your biggest support?” Ye Junlin felt somewhat surprised, observing closely, realizing this was evidently a formation.

His previous full-force attack could send many True Immortals into disarray, yet it was easily blocked?

This formation must be of high quality!

“This is the Immortal Prisoning Demonic Array!”

Mingye declared proudly, “This formation was personally set up by the Heavenly Formation Master of my Ming tribe many years ago; it is a Six-Rank Heavenly Array. Even an Immortal Sovereign cannot escape! Now that I’ve activated it, even if you all combine your strengths, you cannot break through!”

The crowd was horrified.

They didn’t understand what a Heavenly Formation Master was or the concept of a Six-Rank Heavenly Array, but upon hearing that even a legendary Immortal Sovereign could be trapped, they realized this was serious trouble.

“Ridiculous, even if we can’t get out, so what? Are you planning to imprison us for a lifetime?”

Xue Wuhen forced himself to calm down, stating gravely, “Maintaining such a formation requires vast energy; do you think you can keep this up forever?”

While this formation was powerful, capable of trapping Immortal Sovereign-level experts, there was still a chance of turning the tables as long as they hadn’t sustained real harm.

“Fool! Guess why this formation is called the Immortal Prisoning Demonic Array? Digest those two words about slaying demons!”

Mingye said with a meaningful tone.

“Could it be…” Xue Wuhen’s expression turned grave as he finally understood.
