Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 295

“Why bother? You came all this way to die,” Ye Junlin shook his head and sighed.

To be honest, Guli’s death was a real shame. He was at the Sixth Heaven of the Immortal King Realm, on par with Ye Junlin, and mastered multiple top-tier great supernatural arts, definitely a standout among Immortal King-level beings.

That was why Situ Yan sent him to kill the Revivalists!

But none of them expected to encounter a terrifying existence here that was even more monstrous than a freakish genius…

Not only was he a Nine-rank Heavenly Formation Master, but he could also casually unleash supreme laws. In the entire universe, that was pretty explosive!

“Hmph! That damn birdman messed up my back garden,” Dongfang Jing said with a disgusted expression, planning to renovate it later.

“How terrifying! The Sea Clan actually has such help,” Dongfang Mengyao said, still feeling uneasy. “Thank goodness Young Master Ye is here.”

“Master, shall we continue playing cards?” Li Wujie asked seriously, his face covered in paper notes.

“Play what? The mood’s ruined,” Hong Qianye tossed aside his cards, feeling extremely frustrated.

He also had a strong disposition, but losing every time was just annoying.

Ye Junlin’s eyes flickered. “From what that birdman said, it seems there are more accomplices lurking in the Sea Clan.”

After his previous experiences, he had a pretty bad impression of the alien races, and since the enemy had already come knocking, how could he just sit back?

[Beep! Congratulations, host, you’ve triggered the sign-in task. Please head to the Underwater Royal City to complete the sign-in and you’ll receive a reward: the Cangyuan Sword upgraded to top-tier Immortal King-level Magical Artifact!]

A system notification echoed in his mind.

Ye Junlin chuckled, “Just in time! I’ll take that last shark wall as a guide!”

Before the Tiger Shark Commander left, he was marked with Ye Junlin’s spiritual imprint. So even if they were separated by who knows how many miles, Ye Junlin could sense where the Tiger Shark Commander was located.

After all, the North Sea Region was vast; finding the Sea Clan’s lair would be quite a challenge.

“Stop playing around; let’s go to the Sea Clan’s lair!” Ye Junlin said.

“Haha, we’re going to knock on their door directly! Just thinking about it gets me excited,” Li Wujie exclaimed, shaking off the paper notes from his face, his joy palpable. “My big sword is already itching for action!”

“Is it time to roast some seafood again?” Hong Qianye said with interest.

“With Senior Ye stepping in, we can definitely eliminate this Sea Clan menace!” Dongfang Jing said excitedly.

Recently, she received reports from scouts that besides the Heavenly Daughter Country, other nations in the Fengming Prefecture were suffering heavily from Sea Clan invasions, with significant losses. It was clear the Sea Clan’s ambition was great, almost as if they had some backing and were acting fearlessly.

If this wasn’t curbed soon, the beings of Fengming Prefecture would be in danger!

Seeing Ye Junlin, a mighty figure of the Human Race, take action calmed Dongfang Jing’s heart.

…

In the North Sea Region.

In the underwater world.

Inside a magnificent royal palace, a golden-haired youth was conversing with an old man in blue robes.

“Young Master Situ, are you saying you want me to step in and try to gather the Revivalists of the Kunlun Realm?” The Sea Whale Ancestor’s ancient face showed astonishment upon hearing the request.

He actually hoped the targets would be more scattered because if the Revivalists were too united, it would be harder to deal with them!

Let’s not forget, those guys were ancient-level powerhouses, masters of the most complete immortal arts, and each one was no ordinary character. If they all gathered together, it was unimaginable how terrifying that would be!

Why would you want those monsters to come together?

Unexpectedly, Situ Yan calmly replied, “As long as you can do that, I can take them all out at once.”

His tone left no room for doubt, almost like stating a fact.

“W-what did you say?!”

The Sea Whale Ancestor was taken aback, then his face darkened. “Friend Situ, please don’t joke with me.”

Evidently, Situ Yan’s words made the Sea Whale Ancestor think he was being overly conceited, completely unaware of the world!

Young man, there’s a limit to showing off, right?

Who do you think you’re looking down on?

If you’re so amazing, able to kill all the Revivalists, why come to me to collaborate?

The Sea Whale Ancestor wasn’t pleased. In his eyes, the golden-haired youth was practically yelling, “Show off!”

As if sensing what the Sea Whale Ancestor was thinking, Situ Yan lightly cleared his throat and explained:

“You’ve misunderstood my meaning.”

“I’m confident in wiping out all the Revivalists, but not in the way you think.”

The Sea Whale Ancestor was growing more confused.

Not the way I think?

What do you mean?

“Please, enlighten me about your methods so I can understand your capabilities. Only then will I dare to act; otherwise…”

His words hinted at Situ Yan revealing whatever backing he had.

After all, this was a serious matter, and this plan was too crazy; if those guys did gather and turned on them, wouldn’t that be a joke?

Thus, the Sea Whale Ancestor wanted to know what gave this golden-haired youth the courage to do such a thing!

Seeing the other party’s tone filled with doubt, Situ Yan knew he had to start establishing trust to ensure the plan’s success.

“Since that’s the case, I won’t hide it from you.”

Situ Yan gently raised his hand; pale white light erupted from his palm, revealing a silver ring that emitted a sacred aura covered in intricate runes.

“This is…” the Sea Whale Ancestor furrowed his brow.

“This is the Order Ring, a special ultimate treasure of my clan, and its purpose is quite simple: it can strip all beings within its range of their cultivation!”

As Situ Yan introduced the treasure, a subtle smirk curved his lips.

“Strip them of their cultivation?!!”

The Sea Whale Ancestor stared in disbelief at the silver ring, his heart storming like waves.

For even the strongest cultivator, losing their cultivation meant being reduced to a useless person; not only would they suffer more than death, but they would also be easily slaughtered!

Never thought the Bright Clan had such a wicked ultimate treasure!

“Is it permanent?” the Sea Whale Ancestor asked with a tingling sensation at the back of his head, his eyes reflecting deep fear.

He was cautiously afraid that Situ Yan would do the same to him…

Situ Yan shook his head, “Sorry to disappoint, but while the affected cultivators will lose their cultivation, it lasts at most for the duration of an incensing stick; afterward, their cultivation will return to normal.”

An incensing stick!

Hearing this crucial piece of information, the Sea Whale Ancestor finally relaxed a little.

But honestly, let’s not kid ourselves—never mind an incensing stick; even a brief moment is enough to determine life and death for beings at their level!

“The most important thing is, this ultimate treasure consumes all its energy each time it’s activated, and after use, it would take at least ten thousand years to activate it again, which is why I want you to gather as many Revivalists from the Kunlun Realm as possible.”

“Because I want to catch them all in one net!”

Situ Yan spoke in a serious tone.

“I see now.”

The Sea Whale Ancestor nodded.

If they had this ultimate treasure backing them up, indeed they wouldn’t fear a horde of Revivalists.

Just kill them all!

“I’ll think of a way to lure a majority of Revivalists over. At that time, we can proceed with the final steps.”

The Sea Whale Ancestor smiled, his tone chilling.

As the old saying goes, ‘Better to let a friend die than oneself.’

Now that the Kunlun Realm was in dire straits, he might as well take this chance to perform well and gain the trust and favor of the Bright Clan.

In the future, talk about becoming an Immortal Emperor or an Immortal Sovereign; even achieving the status of an Immortal Emperor would be a sure thing!

“Pleasure collaborating,” Situ Yan said softly.

This ultimate treasure was his biggest source of confidence.

Indeed, while the ancient-level Revivalists of the Kunlun Realm were numerous and strong, so what?

As long as they were affected by the Order Ring, they would all lose their cultivation!

An incensing stick’s time is enough for him to wipe out this group of natives!

Suddenly.

A familiar voice echoed in Situ Yan’s mind, sounding weak and desperate, “Young Master, run…”

“What’s going on?”

Situ Yan jumped up in shock, his brow throbbing, and an ominous foreboding rose in his heart as he murmured:

“It’s Guli in trouble.”
