Chapter 27: Present the Divine Fruit to Me!

This area instantly reached dead silence at its extreme.

Countless people's pupils contracted sharply as they stared dumbfounded at the scene, unable to believe it.

Heaven! How… how could this be possible?!

Mo Li, they actually fell so easily?

Hiss…

Countless gasps of cold air rose and fell in succession.

Their shock is normal.

Whether it's Mo Li, Frenzied Blade Warrior, or Leng Wufeng, Zhan Qianqiu and Xiao Shuihan, they are all young heroes whose names echo across the Ten Lands!

All the countless Heavenly Pride of the Ten Lands have mostly grown up hearing their legends!

And now, these legendary beings are being crushed in a single, absurd move by Ye Wuque!

One cannot say it doesn't shock the world!

Ye Wuque… could he be the defying‑Heaven demon beast from the Nine Heavens?

A Heavenly Pride slowly spoke, with an unprecedented solemn tone.

I think… it's possible!

Only those lofty Nine Heavens Heavenly Pride could possess such terrifying combat power!

Other possibilities are almost nonexistent!

The Heavenly Pride asserted.

Such power… the young heroes of the entire Ten Lands are no match for a single move of his… It seems… this ancient imperial tomb opportunity… only those few monsters from the Nine Heavens can contend with Ye Wuque?

…

After Ye Wuque's visually shocking terrifying palm strike, every Heavenly Pride present lost any desire to vie for the Boundless Sword Divine Fruit.

And Ye Wuque, after slowly sheathing the Boundless Sword Divine Fruit, gradually walked toward… Great Sword King Zhan Qianqiu.

This scene left many Heavenly Pride puzzled.

Huh? What is this Black Robe War God doing?

Is he about to strike?

However, an unexpected scene unfolded.

Ye Wuque wasn't about to strike; instead, he approached Great Sword King Zhan Qianqiu, and a surge of power emanated, landing on him.

Soon, Zhan Qianqiu awoke.

Seeing Ye Wuque within arm's reach, Zhan Qianqiu involuntarily shivered, his sun‑and‑moon lofty eyes flashing an unmasked… admiration.

He knows!

Ye Wuque held back!

Had he not held back, all five of them would have certainly died!

Precisely because of that, Zhan Qianqiu understood even more the terrifying, unimaginable gap between himself and Ye Wuque!

After taking a deep breath, Zhan Qianqiu bowed deeply to Ye Wuque, clasping his fists.

Zhan Qianqiu… thank you… Lord Ye for sparing my life!

Ye Wuque gave no response to Zhan Qianqiu's gesture.

He said lightly:

You… participated in the Myriad Sword Dao Lineage's… Sword Son Trial?

Zhan Qianqiu was slightly stunned, but answered immediately.

Yes! Lord Ye! I indeed took part in the Sword Son Trial!

The Myriad Sword Dao Lineage's Sword Son Trial… spans endless time and space, traverses billions of universes, selecting the most astonishingly talented, unrivaled Sword Dao demon beast!

Ye Wuque's voice continued:

Then, within this Sword Son Trial… do you know a person, Feng Caichen!

Upon hearing that, Zhan Qianqiu's eyes suddenly burst with an intense, unparalleled admiration and heartfelt reverence!

Of course I know!

How could I not know!

It can be said, any Heavenly Pride who reaches the deeper stages of that Sword Son Trial would certainly know this name!

Heavenly Sword! Feng Caichen!

One person, one sword, overwhelming endless defying Sword Dao prodigies, crushing countless defying demon beasts, seizing the Sword Son Trial with an incomprehensible, devastating force, becoming the undisputed top‑tier Eternal Peerless Demon Beast!

Zhan Qianqiu's voice grew louder, his eyes brighter, and he almost shouted the line!

Upon hearing Zhan Qianqiu's words, Ye Wuque's face also showed a hint of a smile.

Indeed, Lao Feng, after you showed off wildly in the Sword Son Trial, your name has shaken the world… wonderful!

After a light sigh, Ye Wuque continued:

What about after? Where did he go after the trial ended?

Zhan Qianqiu shook his head lightly.

I don't know where the Heavenly Sword is now…

But… most likely he went to that… Nine Heavens world!

His tone carried a hint of yearning.

The Nine Heavens world…

Lao Feng… wait for me… I'm coming here soon!

Ye Wuque took a slow deep breath, saying this in his heart.

Afterwards, he took a step forward, preparing to leave.

Having just obtained the final crucial heavenly material and earthly treasure needed to break through the Five Head Ten Arm Great Divine Ability, Ye Wuque naturally needed to find a place to refine this opportunity; if he successfully breaks through to the fifth layer, his combat power will surge again!

Just as Ye Wuque's figure was about to disappear from the spot.

Hum...

A profound and majestic surge suddenly appeared, rippling across the Nine Heavens, as if omnipresent...

That was above the Void in an extremely distant place.

A towering, majestic, valiant, and domineering terrifying figure appeared there.

Clad in a suit of black battle armor, with an indistinct face, his whole body faintly revealed a trace of cold indifference and lofty superiority akin to ancient ice.

It was... Ye Tianquan, the ninety-eighth sequence of the Ye Clan!

He is one of the few existences recognized as the most unfathomable in this Primordial Imperial Tomb's endless Heavenly Pride!

He comes from the colossal entity standing at the Summit of Nine Heavens Ten Earth, a sequence-level existence of the Undying Aristocratic Family Ye Clan!

The moment his figure appeared in that Void, it instantly drew endless gazes of awe and terror.

Moreover, many Heavenly Pride figures couldn't help but retreat, wanting to stay away from this terrifying killing god.

"Hiss... Has this peerless ferocious person come as well..."

"Could he also be interested in the Wuji Sword God Fruit?"

At this moment, Ye Tianquan, standing in the Void, glanced faintly toward Ye Wuque's direction, then withdrew his gaze, and a faint voice slowly emerged from the corner of his mouth...

"Come... Offer the divine fruit to me..."

"As repayment, I will make an exception and take you as my new follower!"

"Remember... This is your... supreme honor!"

His tone was plain, yet carried a hint of rich coldness and overbearingness!

Numerous Heavenly Pride below reacted differently.

Yet none failed to show a drastic change in expression.

"Good heavens! Is Ye Tianquan trying to recruit the Black-Robed War God?"

"For other beings, this might be a tremendous opportunity capable of overturning heaven and changing fate! But! Ye Wuque is different! I feel he will not easily submit to others!"

They discussed heatedly, all turning their gazes toward Ye Wuque, whose figure was about to completely depart.

And at the moment Ye Tianquan's voice sounded, Ye Wuque's footsteps paused slightly.

He stopped, and a touch of interest appeared in his eyes.

"Are you a person of the Ye Clan?"

"Somewhat interesting..."
