Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 296

“Kid, are you saying Guli is in danger?” The skinny guy behind him looked utterly incredulous.

Being his companion, he knew just how strong Guli was; if they went head-to-head, he’d be at a disadvantage.

So when Situ Yan sent Guli on a beheading mission, the skinny guy thought it made perfect sense and figured that the Human Race resurrector was as good as dead.

But now, unexpected trouble had popped up!

Could it be that the Human Race resurrector was actually strong?!

Situ Yan frowned tightly, sensing the heavy mental blow Guli faced before his death; the enemy was terrifying beyond imagination.

As expected, this ancient world shouldn’t be underestimated; after all, the backdrop of the resurrector’s time was the peak period of the Kunlun Realm, so it’s reasonable for them to be powerful.

“Damn it…” Situ Yan clenched his teeth, his usually calm demeanor suddenly turning dark.

“Situ, my friend, could it be your subordinate has run into trouble?” Sea Whale Ancestor asked in shock.

“Absolutely, he died at the hands of that Human,” Situ Yan stated coldly.

Sea Whale Ancestor hesitated slightly, realizing the opponent’s strength was definitely not something to be taken lightly!

“Don’t worry, my friend. Your subordinate died because of our Sea Clan; I’ll head out right away to take down that Human and give you an explanation!”

Knowing his chance to shine had come, Sea Whale Ancestor proudly declared, his tone steady.

Just then, a panicked shout broke through, “This is bad! This is really bad!”

A shrimp soldier rushed in, clearly in a hurry.

“Damn, tell me clearly what the hell is going on?!” Sea Whale Ancestor scolded, releasing a wave of imposing aura.

The shrimp soldier collapsed to the ground, terrified, and said, “Reporting to the Ancestor, a group of Humans has invaded the North Sea Region, heading straight for the Royal Palace. The Sea King led the soldiers to intercept them but suffered heavy losses. He sent me to urgently seek your help!”

“Hmm?!”

Sea Whale Ancestor’s expressions turned to shock and anger. “The Humans are that bold? Dare to rampage on my territory!”

“Situ, my friend, just wait here; I’ll be back soon!”

With that, the blue-robed old man vanished, leaving ripples in the water behind him.

“Kid, do you think it’s that resurrector who’s brought people to our door?” the skinny guy asked suspiciously.

“Possible. Let’s observe the situation!” Situ Yan replied with a serious tone.

Whatever could cause his subordinate to feel despair had to be something extraordinary.

So, he hoped to use Sea Whale Ancestor to gauge the opponent’s strength and, if the conditions allowed it, Situ Yan would seize the opportunity to strike down the opponent with all his might!

…

The spectacular underwater world had plunged into chaos.

Countless ocean creatures panicked and fled, afraid of getting caught in the chaos.

Due to the invasion of those Humans, many members of the Sea Clan were already fleeing in disarray, abandoning their armor and weapons.

“Damn it, are they declaring a death match with my Sea Clan?!” Inside the royal city, Electric Eel King trembled with rage, electric sparks crackling in his eyes.

Hearing reports of regular defeats from his men, Electric Eel King had an ominous feeling that the North Sea Region was about to see a change in fortune.

“Sea King, those Humans are too devious; the North Sea Region is vast, and our Sea Clan resides in the most concealed, obscure depths of the ocean. There are various formations set up outside to block and interfere with divine sense; how did they find their way here?!” Tiger Shark Commander scratched his head, puzzled.

“Believe me, I want to know too!!” Electric Eel King shouted in despair.

The Sea Clan had survived countless eons in the North Sea Region. In all that time, they had fought many battles with the Human Race, yet despite the bloodshed, the Sea Clan had managed to continue thriving in the North Sea Region.

This was mainly due to their advantageous environment!

Even if nine out of ten Sea Clan warriors fell, as long as the survivors stayed within their lair to recuperate and avoid the Humans’ pursuit, new warriors would eventually arise after several years, continuing to wreak havoc outside.

But now, this group of Humans had suddenly dug deep into the North Sea Region and found their way to the Sea Clan’s lair with impeccable precision, leaving Electric Eel King and the others baffled!

This was entirely illogical!

“Da! Those Humans are almost entering the royal city!” a subordinate shouted in a panic.

“Damn it, I seriously suspect there’s a traitor leaking information to them!” Electric Eel King’s expression darkened.

“A traitor?!”

Everyone jumped in shock.

Tiger Shark Commander looked ready to burst into flames, “Who?! Step forward if you dare! Let me deal with you!”

Boom! Boom! Boom…

Powerful auras closed in on the royal city, sending chills down the spines of countless Sea Clan members.

“Hahaha, stop hiding, I know you’re in there!” It was Li Wujie’s voice.

Swoosh~

A terrifying black blade aura shattered the air and headed straight for the camp where Electric Eel King and the others were.

“Bold!!”

Electric Eel King was furious, raising his hand to unleash terrifying lightning.

The other leaders sprang into action, all doing their utmost to withstand the dreadful blade aura.

Boom!

A brilliant explosion erupted.

The tent disintegrated into dust, rocks flying, waves churning.

“Cough, cough, so strong…” Blood trickled from Electric Eel King’s mouth as fear gripped their hearts.

The might of a single slash was terrifying indeed!

Seeing Electric Eel King and the others, Li Wujie excitedly turned and shouted, “Master, tonight’s seafood ingredients are secured!”

“Oh? Let me take a look.”

Ye Junlin strolled over, his gaze sweeping across the figures, and his eyes lit up, repeating, “Good! Good! Good!”

With his keen insight, he recognized the true forms of these Sea Clan beings: Electric Eel, Shark, Sea Snake, Sea Cucumber, Squid, and Pufferfish.

These were all Celestial Immortal-level beings, and if Bai Xiaoxi transformed them into delicious delicacies, Ye Junlin could hardly imagine how good they would taste.

“They—They’re that Human from last time!” Tiger Shark Commander recognized Ye Junlin and quaked in fear, his face pale; the fins on his back had been taken by the very same person!

“Hehe, good to see you again! Thanks to you, I found this place without a hitch. You know, this place is quite hidden,” Ye Junlin said with a smile.

Had he not had the means to track Tiger Shark Commander and chosen to search aimlessly in the vast North Sea Region, he would have wasted a ton of time!

Shh shh shh~

Around them, multiple murderous glances pierced through, fury directed at Tiger Shark Commander.

Leading the charge, Electric Eel King, eyes bulging, pointed an accusing finger, roaring, “The traitor is you! Shark Wall!”

Tiger Shark Commander’s head buzzed, disbelief washing over him. “Me?!”

What the hell? When did he become a traitor?

“N-no, it’s not me! I’m being wronged!”

“You still dare to argue? They said it’s because of you they found their way here!”

“Shark Wall! Our ties are severed!”

“Same here!”

…

Ye Junlin waved his hand, “Enough, you’ll all end up in my belly anyway, why bother bickering?”

At those words.

Electric Eel King and the others felt like they had plunged into an abyss, chilled to the bone.

“Y-you better not mess around; our Sea Clan is under the protection of Sea Whale Ancestor! Be wise and retreat quickly, or else…”

Suddenly, a voice like rolling thunder echoed over the royal city, “Those who dare trespass in the Sea Clan’s royal city shall die!”

Boom!

A terrifying and overwhelming pressure surged forth in an instant.

A blue-robed old man with disheveled hair appeared in the sky over the royal city, his presence formidable, eyes deep as the ocean.

His gaze swept down, exuding an immensely powerful aura!

In that instant,

Hong Qianye and the others felt immense pressure, their faces revealing apprehension.

“Ancestor, you’ve finally come!” Electric Eel King burst into tears of joy, then pointed at Ye Junlin with excitement, saying:

“It’s him, it’s him, it’s definitely him!”

“He’s the one I mentioned before, the powerful Human!”

Sea Whale Ancestor narrowed his eyes, intensely staring at Ye Junlin, scrutinizing him for a moment before asking, his tone uncertain, “Who exactly are you? I’ve never seen you before.”

By all rights, as ancient powerhouses, they should have crossed paths at some point, yet the moment Sea Whale Ancestor laid eyes on Ye Junlin, he felt blank like he was seeing a stranger, with not even a hint of memory.

What was terrifying was that Sea Whale Ancestor couldn’t detect a shred of the resurrector’s aura from Ye Junlin!

What the heck was going on?
