Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 482

“What the hell is going on with this ‘hanging up’ thing?”

Luo Qingwu had never heard of it, but seeing Ye Junlin’s laid-back attitude, she felt utterly confused.

Even that guy you just defeated is grinding hard to level up, and here you are, the victor, slacking off instead?

“Ye Daoist, are you giving up early? Can you at least give me a reason?”

Luo Qingwu asked with uncertainty.

If this person chooses to give up, then there’s no point in continuing the game, because they have no chance against the enemy without him!

Ye Junlin was speechless.

Who said I was giving up?

When others log off, it’s called slacking off; when I do it, I’m leveling up!

Can’t you see the difference?

“Don’t worry, it’s just temporary. You guys keep doing your thing, and don’t let the opponents catch on and take advantage.”

“With me around, we won’t lose this game!”

“Guaranteed win!”

Ye Junlin’s tone was firm.

Upon hearing that,

Luo Qingwu was taken aback and secretly relaxed a bit.

Though she didn’t understand why he had to do that, as long as it was a promise from this man, it would definitely come true.

Next, they just had to follow the plan.

“Alright, we’ll wait for you!”

Revived, Luo Qingwu swayed her tiny waist as she exited the altar, her nine fluffy white fox tails swishing behind her.

As she left, whether intentional or not, one of her fox tails gently brushed against Ye Junlin.

Ye Junlin felt a tickle in his nose and couldn’t help but sneeze.

Opening his eyes reflexively, he looked at that tantalizing back figure, an expression of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

“Hey, was that on purpose?”

Ye Junlin said, feeling a bit annoyed.

“Hehe~”

Luo Qingwu’s silver bell-like laughter rang out from afar, sounding so carefree it made one’s heart flutter.

Ye Junlin shook his head and closed his eyes again, quietly waiting for the next ten minutes to pass.

Once the time’s up, he would be a max-level powerhouse!

Then he’d charge straight through the canyon, flattening the enemy’s high ground!

At this moment,

Down the lane, two groups were in a fierce battle.

Tang Yaoyao kept pulling her bow and shooting arrows, her long hair flowing like a waterfall, her delicate and cute face bubbling with determination.

The Great Mushroom King, acting as support, healed her and absorbed damage.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions of light burst forth, clouds of dust rising.

The two opponents looked increasingly worse for wear, quickly falling into a disadvantage.

“Damn it, we can’t win!”

“That shooter on their side is too strong!”

“Requesting backup! We need support in the lower lane!”

They cried out in a desperate mess.

“Tang Fairy, let’s finish them off quickly!”

The Great Mushroom King said, a bit anxious, fearing more unfavorable factors might get added.

“Okay!”

Tang Yaoyao roared with confidence, each shot a precise critical hit, wearing the two down to near death.

Just as she was about to make her double kill, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

A small dagger surrounded by purple light shot in, sharply hitting her in the back.

“Ugh!”

Tang Yaoyao’s mouth bled, her face turning pale.

At the same time, she was shocked, realizing there was an enemy behind her!

When did they show up?

“Hehe.”

A man wearing half a mask and dressed in dark purple robes emerged from stealth, his eyes sharp as an eagle’s, revealing a mocking intent.

“Not good! Their reinforcements have arrived!”

The Great Mushroom King’s face turned pale with anger, quickly casting a healing spell over Tang Yaoyao.

Tang Yaoyao felt much better and immediately turned to attack the one who had sneak-attacked her.

Swish!

Who would have thought, Lin Feiyu vanished right where he was, teleporting behind Tang Yaoyao and slashing her several times, each cut a critical hit.

Given that Tang Yaoyao’s character was squishy, there was no way she could withstand such fierce output; her health dropped by more than half in an instant.

If not for the Great Mushroom King healing her on the side, she would have been finished by now.

But if Lin Feiyu kept this up, Tang Yaoyao would bleed out soon.

“Thanks, Lin Daoist!” The other two enemies cheered, eager to push on, wanting to finish off Tang Yaoyao and the Great Mushroom King.

“It’s over…”

Seeing the situation rapidly turn, a glimmer of despair flashed in the Great Mushroom King’s eyes.

“Hmph! You thought you could ignore me, huh?”

A cold voice came from the nearby riverbank, and a young man in a scholarly robe holding a sage’s book stepped onto the lower lane.

“Is that Canglang Daoist?” Tang Yaoyao, feeling increasingly weak, looked at the newcomer with a trace of surprise.

“Dammit, you’ll pay for this!” Lin Feiyu snarled viciously.

Canglang Jun, furious, laughed coldly, “Ignorant youngsters, let me show you my power!”

After being tormented by Tong Wudi in the mid lane, he had wanted to find a sense of presence in the lower lane, but upon seeing three enemies there, he was so excited he could barely contain himself.

“Learning has no limits!”

Canglang Jun unleashed his strongest move, the sage’s book emanating immeasurable light, the air filled with the sound of readings, cleansing the soul.

Swish, swish, swish!

Countless ancient characters flew from the book, forming a surging tide, each wave made of words, crashing down with overwhelming might.

“No!!”

The two enemies, already on the brink, had no way to resist this move and were obliterated in an instant, vanishing into dust.

“Hiss—” Lin Feiyu gasped in fright, immediately abandoning the fight against Tang Yaoyao and going into stealth, trying to escape.

“Killing Word Technique!”

Canglang Jun raised the sage’s book high, as countless characters flew out, forming a crimson “kill” character, swinging down heavily towards a target.

“Ah!”

Even though no one was seen, a scream echoed out.

Boom—

Moments later, amidst the broken ground, a corpse lay still—the body of the slain Lin Feiyu.

Experience beats youth every time.

Canglang Jun had predicted Lin Feiyu’s escape route perfectly, allowing him to hit the target without fail.

[Congratulations to the flow of time for achieving a triple kill!]

The canyon’s prompt rings out.

“Canglang Daoist is so awesome!” Tang Yaoyao exclaimed.

If those first two were just freebies, the one-shot kill of Lin Feiyu showed true strength.

“Thanks for your help, Canglang Daoist!” The Great Mushroom King expressed gratitude.

With the triple kill, Canglang Jun stood taller, waving his hand proudly.

“Just a small feat!”

Having shown off, he let go of his pent-up frustration, feeling utterly refreshed.

After all, in this match, his strength was originally quite formidable; without that monster Tong Wudi around, he could have dominated the canyon.

But unfortunately, Tong Wudi being around overshadowed him like the brilliance of the full moon eclipsing a firefly, making him seem insignificant.

But now,

he had shone bright in the lower lane, letting out a deep breath of relief.

“Ahem, just joking, but now I can sweep through all four of them all on my own!”

Feeling elated, Canglang Jun pretended to cough a few times, declaring confidently.

“Why four, though?” Tang Yaoyao tilted her head curiously.

Canglang Jun was at a loss for words.

Do I really need to explain?

That’s because he couldn’t beat the last one!

But just then,

a terrifying sense of oppression washed over them, freezing Canglang Jun and the others with dread.

“Hmph, I didn’t expect you old fool to come down here to show off.”

A powerful man clad in a black dragon robe, crowned as a king, strode in confidently, a mocking look in his eyes.

Seeing the newcomer, Canglang Jun, who had just been feeling proud, immediately shrank back like a mouse confronted with a cat, on the verge of tears.

Did you just come at the worst timing possible?

Really now?

“Run!” The Great Mushroom King felt a chill down his spine, not daring to look directly at Tong Wudi.

“From the moment I appear, you’re all dead.”

Tong Wudi gave a cold laugh, lifting two fingers toward them.

Whoosh, a gigantic formation appeared beneath Canglang Jun and the others, bursting with brilliant golden light.

Swish, swish, swish~

Above them, dense golden Sword Qi fell like a torrential rain.

“Ugh…”

With unwilling expressions, Canglang Jun and the others were engulfed in the Golden Sword Formation.

[Congratulations to the undefeated emperor for achieving a triple kill!]

The grand canyon prompt rang out, announcing the achievement.

The next moment, Tong Wudi’s level rose to seven.

As he finished selecting his talent card, his eyes flashed with dissatisfaction.

“Why is it a great talent card this time? Such bad luck.”

If it were any other Tester getting a great talent card, they’d be so thrilled they might lose their mind.

But for Tong Wudi, a great talent card was just a reluctant option; what he truly longed for was a Supreme Talent Card.

Because only with something like a Supreme Talent Card could he truly compete against an opponent like Ye Junlin.

Though the features of this great talent card would grant him exceptional advantages while jungling.

The damage dealt to monsters would increase by two hundred percent, and the experience gained from killing monsters would be doubled!

This made Tong Wudi feel that getting this card wasn’t entirely a bad thing.

After all, his urgent need was to level up!

The faster, the better!

At this moment,

Seeing the water tribe team heading down the lane, Tong Wudi did not choose to push the line but instead decisively left, plunging deep into the jungle to hunt down various Fierce Beasts.

He needed to farm hard, farm like crazy!

If he were to take a minion wave to the high ground right now, it would surely draw Ye Junlin’s ambush.

To avoid triggering direct conflict, he preferred to play safely for a while.

After all, in Tong Wudi’s view, Ye Junlin must also be working hard, grinding the jungle to accumulate experience.

“I have more advantages than you!”

“I’m Tong Wudi, the real victor in the end!”

At the fire tribe’s high ground.

In the altar, the expressions on Canglang Jun and the others were peculiar.
