Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 474

Three people led the aquatic team as they advanced down the lane, reaching the second tower-like statue before launching a fierce attack.

Boom, boom, boom~

With the enhancement effect, the tower demolition speed was simply insane.

As the saying goes, many hands make light work; the entire tower-like statue quickly became riddled with holes, endless debris falling everywhere.

Bang!

An explosion resounded.

The second defense tower blew up, leaving only the last one at high ground.

“Haha, let’s charge straight up to high ground and smash the crystal!” Bai Wuyou was excited, feeling victorious.

Eternal Ancestor raised an eyebrow, a warning bell ringing in his mind for some reason, feeling a bit uneasy.

Just as they approached high ground, a sharp voice called from behind,

“Stop right there, you’re surrounded!”

“Who?!”

Everyone turned around warily, and upon seeing the figure, their expressions froze in shock.

That ridiculous hairstyle and that face begging to be slapped, with seemingly sharp yet wise eyes exuding an indescribable taunt—just standing there was enough to draw hate…

Above his head were five big characters: “Invincible But Lonely!”

“It’s you!” Hu Jie, wielding a soul spear, broke a cold sweat and grit his teeth.

Eternal Ancestor frowned and quietly retreated behind the others,

“Charge forward!”

At this command, Bai Wuyou and Hu Jie didn’t dare disobey, steeling themselves to attack Ye Junlin.

“Wave Slash!”

Bai Wuyou swung his blade, testing the waters with a powerful blade aura that left a deep scar on the ground.

Swish, Ye Junlin easily dodged and then unleashed the Dawn Sword Strike.

Whoosh!

A massive white sword qi formed instantly, shattering the void.

“Not good!” Seeing this, Bai Wuyou hurriedly swung his blade to create a wind wall about two meters wide.

This wind wall was special—it could negate all flying objects.

This included various ranged skills!

However, when the white sword qi hit the wind wall, it underwent indescribable distortion. Bits of residual sword qi shot through the wind wall, crashing heavily into Bai Wuyou.

“Aah!”

Bai Wuyou was pierced and bathed in blood, collapsing to the ground lifeless.

“How could this be?!” Eternal Ancestor’s eyes widened.

He knew that Bai Wuyou’s skill could block all flying objects, including sword qi.

This was a rule of the Supreme Canyon, unbreakable.

Yet, the earlier events had utterly shattered his understanding.

Even the wind wall couldn’t stop that sword qi!

What he didn’t know was that Ye Junlin’s active skills had exceeded all rules after a ten-thousandfold enhancement.

From a certain perspective, it was a dimensional strike, hence the wind wall’s properties couldn’t fully intercept it.

Swish, swish, swish~!

Soul spears were thrown out, slicing through the air.

Hu Jie was moving and casting with extreme fluidity and agility.

But Ye Junlin had a dodge rate of one hundred percent, and with the Phantom Sword Dance in effect, he created multiple illusions, making it impossible for Hu Jie to hit a target.

“Damn it, why can’t I hit you!”

Hu Jie was both shocked and furious, feeling a sense of frustration as he couldn’t land a shot.

“The reason is simple.”

“You just can’t!”

Ye Junlin circled him like a ghost, the sharp sword slicing through him, spraying blood.

“Ugh…” Hu Jie cried out, covered in wounds like a beast roaring in helpless rage.

Eternal Ancestor was secretly alarmed; he realized each of Ye Junlin’s skills was deadly, though basic attacks were still within normal bounds.

“Landscape Painting!”

At this moment, Eternal Ancestor unleashed his ultimate move, gripping a judge’s pen and swiftly drawing in the air, ink flowing like a river, forming an imposing mountain.

The towering mountain erupted with a greenish glow, instantly casting a shadow over Ye Junlin’s head.

It could inflict eighty percent weakening and slow down for half a minute.

Unfortunately, the third Supreme Talent Card Ye Junlin selected had the property of immunity to all negative effects, rendering the Landscape Painting useless.

Seeing Ye Junlin unscathed, Eternal Ancestor was dumbfounded, “Why didn’t it work?”

“Undying and Unyielding, you better run!” Hu Jie shouted desperately, his health bar wiped out, and he transformed into light particles, scattering away.

“I can see you’re the core of this team.”

Ye Junlin approached with his sword, a meaningful gaze, “You’re the one setting the pace? Pretty impressive.”

Eternal Ancestor felt his scalp tingle, “Is this absolute power?”

Suddenly, memories surfaced in his mind of what Ye Junlin had claimed about absolute power before the game.

At first, he dismissed it as boasting, but now, witnessing Ye Junlin’s invincibility, his beliefs wavered drastically.

“Reshape the Ground!”

Eternal Ancestor gritted his teeth, executing this skill.

Swish, a circle formed on the ground around Ye Junlin, creating a cage-like space.

“Hmm?”

Ye Junlin realized he couldn’t get out, so he simply unleashed his ultimate move.

Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate!

Boom! A terrifying sword beam shot out, forcibly breaking the confines of the ground cage, slicing through most of the aquatic warriors ahead.

“You’re not running?” Ye Junlin’s eyes glimmered with intrigue.

Eternal Ancestor didn’t try to escape; instead, he had charged into the towering statue at high ground, attacking fiercely.

Even a few remaining aquatic warriors could inflict some damage on this defense tower, not to mention Eternal Ancestor’s help.

“I cannot escape, so I might as well destroy this tower!” Eternal Ancestor unusually stayed calm.

“Do you really think I’ll let you have your way?”

Ye Junlin sneered, decisively unleashing the Sword Qi Domain.

Swish, swish, swish~

A sword qi domain formed under the high ground tower, annihilating Eternal Ancestor and his minions in an instant.

“No…”

Before he died, Eternal Ancestor looked at the defense tower’s health bar, which was hanging by a thread, his eyes filled with rage and despair.

Why did it have to be stuck here?! Why?!

In the end, with that bitter sentiment, Eternal Ancestor turned into light particles and vanished into thin air.

Only the dilapidated, swaying tower-like statue remained, silently narrating the earlier peril.

[Congratulations to Invincible But Lonely for achieving a triple kill!]

The canyon’s notification echoed.

Both factions erupted into chaos.

“Senior Ye is unstoppable, unparalleled!” Canglang Jun immediately showered accolades.

“Great, Senior Ye avenged us!” Tang Yaoyao cheered.

“But the issue is, we’ve been pushed all the way to high ground, their team definitely has some skills!” Luo Qingwu remarked.

Ye Junlin said seriously, “Everyone pay attention, that Undying and Unyielding is probably an old player; we mustn’t let our guard down.”

It was clear that Eternal Ancestor’s unexpected performance sparked a rare sense of danger in him.

On the other side, the mood had turned grim.

Having been brutally trashed in the lower lane, Bai Wuyou and Hu Jie felt heavy-hearted, their confidence shattered.

“He’s too strong! He took me out with one move; how can we fight now?”

“Sigh, we’re probably going to lose this match.”

Eternal Ancestor’s expression darkened, his mind in disarray.

He thought that with the opening of the Supreme Secret Realm this time, he could easily secure victory like the previous three times.

However, Ye Junlin’s appearance shattered his dreams, making the situation far more complicated.

He felt like a nail driven into his heart!

So unpleasant!

But it had come to this; to claim the highest rank, he had to win this duel.

Eternal Ancestor forcibly adjusted his mood, speaking solemnly, “Don’t be discouraged; remember this is a test of team competition, and teamwork is crucial.”

“Moreover, this is essentially a tower-pushing game; even if he is supremely powerful, it doesn’t matter. As long as we demolish their crystal, victory belongs to us!”

Upon hearing this,

Everyone’s eyes lit up.

Indeed, this is essentially a tower-pushing game; as long as they destroy the crystal on high ground, they win!

“Bai, you’re in charge of sneaking in and taking down the tower. I won’t need to elaborate on the process; just be discreet,” Eternal Ancestor instructed sternly.

“Understood!” Bai Wuyou replied.

Eternal Ancestor seemed to have thought of something, his eyes shining with a glimmer of hope, “I remember the shadow dragon should appear at this time; let’s take it down when we get the chance. I don’t believe the enemy can stop us!”
