Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 624

“Human race, die before me!”

A roar echoed.

The Luantian Blood Emperor fully unleashed the Blood Curse Killing.

An incredibly strange curse descended upon Ye Junlin.

In an instant.

Ye Junlin felt something was wrong; the blood flowing in his body was changing, swiftly heading towards depletion.

“Ugh…”

The sudden change filled Ye Junlin’s heart with a strong sense of alarm.

For the first time since the battle began, he felt an eerie chill!

It seemed he was facing an irreversible death sentence!

“Ha ha! Doesn’t this feel awful? Your blood will soon dry up, and the curse will rapidly spread throughout your body. You’ll have no chance of living!”

“Damn human race, this is the fate you brought upon yourself!”

The Luantian Blood Emperor, having cast the Blood Curse Killing, felt his aura plummeting, his spirit weakened significantly, and there were signs of severely regressing from the Immortal Emperor realm.

At such a costly price, he felt a sharp pain in his heart and regretted ever stepping into this mess of the Immortal Realm.

To get rid of a human indigenous, he sacrificed his great future; even if he managed to complete the task and return, his situation would be bleak.

After all, he had made too many enemies in his once-glorious past, and now, with the halo of invincibility gone, it was hard to imagine the blows he would face after hitting rock bottom.

Those who once lagged behind him would undoubtedly surpass him!

For someone as arrogant and self-important as the Luantian Blood Emperor, this was an unbearable torment!

So even if he could kill Ye Junlin, there was no sense of accomplishment or joy in his heart—only deep regret and unwillingness.

If he could do it all over again, there was no way he would come to this wretched place!

At this moment.

Sensing the looming crisis of death, Ye Junlin’s eyes flashed with a hint of annoyance.

It seemed this guy was serious about scaring him!

Such a curse-like attack utterly disregarded any defense or evasion; before he could even react, he was already hit.

In less than ten breaths, he would apparently meet the fate he was told—his blood would dry up, and life would vanish.

If it were any other Immortal Emperor, they would undoubtedly be in a panic at this moment, facing death with despair and helplessness.

But Ye Junlin was different; he quickly regained his composure because he had the perfect countermeasure.

That was, Upright Without a Trace!

Since the curse was in effect on him, he would simply use the Phasing skill to refresh his body’s state.

“Upright Without a Trace!”

At the brink of danger, Ye Junlin executed this profound Divine Ability.

In an instant, his entire body became ethereal, making him immune to any attacks and various negative effects.

Two seconds later, his body re-materialized.

The blood curse that had just been cast on him vanished during the phasing process.

This deadly attack was effortlessly negated by Ye Junlin!

“What… what’s going on?!”

The Luantian Blood Emperor’s face twisted in horror, his eyes nearly bulging out.

He intended to watch Ye Junlin die, but not only was Ye Junlin alive, he seemed perfectly fine.

Moreover, he could clearly sense that the blood curse he had just placed on his opponent had vanished without a trace.

What in the world just happened?!

Ye Junlin looked at the self-destructive blood-haired man with a gaze of pity and sighed:

“Sigh, what’s the point~”

With that, he swung his sword in a horizontal slash.

At that moment, the Luantian Blood Emperor was engulfed in confusion and shock, completely forgetting to resist, and was severed in half by a single sword strike.

A wave of intense pain surged through his brain like mad; only then did he snap back to reality and let out a chilling scream, “Ah…”

The severed end of his waist twitched as if trying to reconnect.

Ye Junlin didn’t give him a chance, wielding his sword to make consecutive slashes, Sword Qi surging for millions of miles, shooting straight into the sky.

The Luantian Blood Emperor was hacked to pieces, with a shower of blood spraying everywhere, leaving only his intact head.

That twisted, pained face was full of despair and unwillingness, struggling to ask:

“Why? Why are you able to escape the influence of the blood curse…”

The Luantian Blood Emperor genuinely couldn’t fathom how a human race Immortal Emperor could achieve such a level!

What a monstrous method this was!

In response to this question, Ye Junlin pretended to ponder and said, “Is there a possibility that it’s simply nothing to me?”

Upon hearing this.

The Luantian Blood Emperor froze for a moment, the muscles around his eyes twitching uncontrollably.

Recalling the battle from start to finish, he had rallied time and again, only to be defeated each time, and now in this last instance, he had truly lost—utterly and completely, with no chance of a comeback!

All his efforts appeared laughable in front of that man.

“Ha ha ha… hee hee hee hee!!” Suddenly, the Luantian Blood Emperor laughed as if he had gone mad, a wild grin on his face with blood tears streaming down, creating a terrifying sight.

At this moment, the Luantian Blood Emperor’s resolve shattered. Even if Ye Junlin was willing to let him go, he would live in a daze, eventually succumbing to despair.

“What’s gotten into you?”

Ye Junlin found it incomprehensible, shaking his head and summoning the Burial Heaven Coffin.

Whoosh!

A giant bronze coffin appeared, adorned with archaic engravings of birds, beasts, fish, insects, the sun, moon, and stars.

“Hm? It feels a bit different?” Having not summoned the Burial Heaven Coffin in a while, Ye Junlin felt a bit unfamiliar.

The Burial Heaven Coffin was a bound-type Magical Treasure that upgraded with his cultivation level.

Now, it was undoubtedly an exceptional Immortal Emperor Artifact.

However, he hadn’t expected it to undergo some changes in appearance at this tier.

“Open!”

Ye Junlin formed a hand gesture.

The Burial Heaven Coffin opened, and a suction force erupted from within, pulling the dismembered Luantian Blood Emperor inside.

“What is…?” The laughter cut off abruptly, and the Luantian Blood Emperor’s face turned pale with deep-seated fear in his eyes.

He had a premonition that once inside, he would face a fate more terrifying than death!

“No!!!”

A cry of despair rang out.

Boom, the coffin lid slammed shut.

If the Luantian Blood Emperor had been at his peak, it would have been somewhat difficult to refine him with the Burial Heaven Coffin.

But in his currently diminished state, it was a simple task.

Moments later.

The inside of the Burial Heaven Coffin fell into silence.

“Done!”

Ye Junlin stored the Burial Heaven Coffin and Cangyuan Sword, letting out a long sigh, feeling a sense of achievement.

To be honest, this Undying Blood Clan was a bit tricky; if a few hundred more like him came around, it would really be a hassle.

Sure enough, the outside world is dangerous!

It’s better to stay quietly in the Immortal Realm, where he could relax and wait for experience packs to come knocking at his door, a win-win situation.

Little did Ye Junlin know, he had just taken down a super prodigy of the Undying Blood Clan, a once-in-a-million formidable figure known as the Peerless Duke!

With another identity as a core figure belonging to the Luantian tribe, ranked ninth among the ten tribes!

He was also the only one who hadn’t reached the Holy Realm yet still made it into the ranks of prodigies, indicating his future ascension to sainthood was a sure thing.

However, such a powerful being met his end halfway at Ye Junlin’s hands…
