Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity – Chapter 658

“Master, save me…” Ah Kun shouted as if seeing a great savior.

Yuan Hua was first taken aback, then with a mix of anger and laughter said, “So you’re his master. If you had just hidden like a turtle, I might have let you go, but you chose to provoke me and show me disrespect. Do you know that you’re courting death?”

With that, Yuan Hua tossed Ah Kun aside, casting a spell to imprison him, and then approached with a fierce murderous intent, unleashing a wave of Half-Saint level pressure that swept over Ye Junlin.

He wanted to crush him with sheer force and enjoy watching Ye Junlin embarrass himself!

But strangely enough, in the face of the Half-Saint’s oppressive aura, Ye Junlin stood there calmly, a smirk playing on his lips.

“What’s going on?!”

Yuan Hua sensed something was off and instinctively paused, his eyes warily fixed on the silver-haired youth.

To withstand his pressure without a flinch meant that this opponent was at least of equal strength.

This little Immortal Realm had actually produced a Half-Saint?

Xiang Jiba was also taken aback, his eyes fixed intensely on Ye Junlin, seemingly trying to discern something.

From his intuition, it was clear that the opponent was not simple, and the aura around him was quite peculiar—though his cultivation level was that of an Immortal Emperor, he could bear Yuan Hua’s Half-Saint pressure…

“Could it be that this person has cultivated some hidden cultivation method, deliberately revealing an Immortal Emperor’s strength? If so, that would explain everything.”

Realizing this possibility, Xiang Jiba’s gaze towards Ye Junlin shifted entirely.

What a clever trick, even he had been deceived!

The key point was that in the environmental conditions of the Immortal Realm, to have born a Half-Saint was like hatching a divine dragon among a bunch of snake eggs—truly miraculous!

“Ye young friend, if you’re in trouble, I can lend you a hand and teach this arrogant guy a lesson!” Liu Huangshu secretly transmitted.

If not for fearing offending the Half-Saint army from the Divine Court, he would have already activated the Guardian Formation to take action, as dealing with a Half-Saint would be more than enough with that formation.

Now that things had escalated to this point, he would surely support Ye Junlin at the first opportunity.

He was the greatest hope for the rise of the Kunlun Realm!

“Old Liu, just watch from the sidelines; I can handle this. But speaking of which, you’re not being very considerate. You’re taking such humiliation in stride. If you’d called on me earlier, I could have dealt with everything. Why let him be so arrogant?”

Ye Junlin said with some irritation.

Earlier, the group of Divine Court cultivators had made a big splash when they came to the Immortal Realm, but Liu Huangshu informed him they were on the same side, so he didn’t take it to heart and continued to relax and fish by a lakeside.

Who would have thought these Divine Court cultivators would be so restless as to dare touch his mount!

That’s definitely poking at his reverse scale!

Not killing someone would make it hard to vent his anger!

In the eyes of many cultivators in the Immortal Realm, these outsiders were impressive and unfathomable, but to Ye Junlin, they were just easily crushable existence!

He wasn’t worried at all!

Liu Huangshu couldn’t help but smile bitterly; he knew Ye Junlin had great abilities, but was it realistic to think he could take on this whole gang of Half-Saints?

Just thinking about it made it seem utterly unrealistic!

Yuan Hua said coldly, “In this broken place, having a genius like you indeed surprises me, but you, coming from such a small corner, can’t begin to fathom the vastness of the outside world. There are people you simply cannot provoke!”

Ye Junlin scoffed, “Don’t flatter yourself; once I punch you, you’ll behave.”

“Indigenous, how dare you repeatedly belittle me? You will pay a painful price!” Yuan Hua said, making hand seals as multicolored light flew from his beast storage bag, transforming into the essence of ten fierce beasts.

“Roar~!!!”

Ten mighty Half-Saint level fierce beasts, full of vitality, appeared in the sky over the Immortal Court, their combined pressure vast like the ocean.

In an instant.

A terrifying spectacle unfolded with red lightning crisscrossing, creating a shocking scene.

Each of these fierce beasts looked completely different; some had the form of flying scorpions with wings, others appeared as eight-armed golden warriors with menacing fangs, and some were lion-headed, leopard-bodied beasts engulfed in dark purple flames…

Each had a cultivation level between Half-Saint seventh or eighth stage, all with extraordinary combat prowess and innate divine abilities.

These were all battle pets that Yuan Hua had meticulously raised, and they were a significant part of his power!

Such astonishing movement naturally attracted countless gazes. The Divine Court cultivators still at the banquet rushed over, their faces filled with shock.

“Look, Young Master Yuan actually summoned his ten battle pets at once. Who’s he aiming to deal with?”

“Seems like it’s aimed at that silver-haired youth!”

“Hiss, who’s that man? There doesn’t seem to be anyone of that description in our ranks!”

“I heard a bunch of ants talking about him earlier; they say he’s the strongest in the Immortal Realm and is called Ye Immortal Lord!”

“What? The strongest in the Immortal Realm? Is it worth so much fuss from Young Master Yuan?”

“Exactly, I could crush someone like him with a single finger!”

Upon learning the situation, everyone found it ridiculous, thinking Yuan Hua was making a mountain out of a molehill.

They simply didn’t consider that this backward and primitive world could have a powerful existence.

“Yuan is really lacking in ambition; using ten Half-Saint level battle pets to deal with a mere Immortal Emperor level ant is a bit much. Luckily, I didn’t fancy him; otherwise, I’d be a laughingstock~”

Song Linlin smirked, looking at the scene Yuan Hua had set up with a touch of disdain.

Then she turned to the handsome man beside her, who stood tall with an imposing demeanor, and smiled, “Young Master Xiang, you’re here to enjoy the show too?”

Strangely enough, Xiang Jiba didn’t pay her any attention, his eyes fixed intently on the two figures ahead, his expression showing disbelief as if he had seen something utterly incomprehensible.

His eyes were naturally odd, a result of being born with unusual pupils that could reveal the fate of individuals at crucial moments.

What shocked him at this moment was that in the face of the threat from the ten Half-Saint level fierce beasts, Ye Junlin showed absolutely no signs of fear.

In contrast, a huge blood-red “danger” character loomed over Yuan Hua’s head!

That’s a treatment only someone on the verge of death would receive!

“Is this guy really going to meet his end?”

Xiang Jiba murmured in disbelief.
