Chapter 324: This... This Is Impossible!

He was truly, from the bottom of his heart, smiling!

In the Profound Ancient Epoch, he had defeated billions of heroes and swept across all peers of Zhutian, long since feeling the loneliness of invincibility; stepping into this space-time battlefield was to seek a Monster who could truly be regarded as a worthy opponent and stimulate his full potential!

The few single Extreme Realm Heavenly Prides he had casually suppressed before only left him more disappointed.

But now, because of Ye Wuque's appearance, everything was different!

Four Extreme Realm!

This was an absolute Top-tier Monster standing at the same height as him!

An opponent fully qualified to make him go all out and fight to his heart's content!

Looking at Yao, who was laughing freely and wildly, Ye Wuque's lips also involuntarily curved into a genuine smile.

Since his debut, he had fought in all directions, and the Heavenly Prides he encountered were as numerous as carp crossing a river, but single Extreme Realm ones like Huntian and the silver-robed being had long since lost even the qualification to make him take them seriously.

Only a scant few such as Feng Caichen and the revived Ziyang Shen could barely keep pace with him.

And this "Yao" from the Profound Ancient Epoch before him was undoubtedly a Top-tier Monster whose brilliance shone to the very extreme!

His talent, his foundation, his bearing—all inspired respect in Ye Wuque, along with a wondrous feeling of being fellow travelers on the same path, that his Dao was not solitary.

At this moment, Yao slowly stopped his laughter, the wildness on his face slightly restrained, replaced by an extreme earnestness and solemnity.

He slowly extended a finger, looking at Ye Wuque with clear eyes, and spoke lightly:

"One last move."

"Ye Wuque, no matter the outcome of this battle..."

"I will remember you."

Sensing the sincerity and resolve in the other's words, Ye Wuque gave a slight nod and responded with equal conciseness:

"Fine."

Without needing more words, the four rays of Extreme Realm radiance around both of them suddenly blazed to the utmost limit!

All power, all insight, all battle intent was converging into the strike to come!

Yao slowly closed his eyes, and the aura around him began to grow ethereal and illusory, as if about to completely merge with this heaven and earth and become one with all things.

He once again entered that unfathomable state of unity of heaven and man, and more thoroughly than ever before!

The next moment, he snapped his eyes open; in them there was neither sorrow nor joy, only a depth and vastness like the cosmic starry sky!

"The cosmos... is mine alone!"

He softly uttered four words, and his entire being seemed to transform into a formless "Dao," completely vanishing from where he stood.

No, not vanished, but... he was everywhere!

The entire starry sky enveloped by both their auras—the shattered stars, the chaotic energy, the void of Space... everything, without exception, seemed to become an extension of his will in this moment!

Immediately after, throughout the whole cosmos of heaven and earth, all light, all energy, all fragments of laws seemed to be forcibly extracted and forged by an invisible hand, ultimately... transforming into a single ray of light!

A ray impossible to describe with any color, as if containing all the mysteries of the world's inception and the universe's end... a peerless divine light!

This divine light was not merely an aggregation of energy; it contained Yao's four great Extreme Realm Primordials, contained his lifelong insight into the Tiandao of "unity of heaven and man," contained his law, his path, all his conviction and imposing might!

The moment the divine light appeared, it surged vast and mighty, filling heaven and earth, awing the cosmos!

A transcendent and supreme aura, as if representing the will of "Heaven," utterly suppressed this battlefield!

Thud! Thud!

In the distance, some spectating beings whose spiritual cultivation was slightly weaker, under this indescribable grand pressure, could not help but go weak in the knees and directly fall to their knees!

More people turned deathly pale, trembling all over, as if bearing the weight of the entire universe, making even breathing incomparably difficult!

Their hearts filled with endless awe and a sense of insignificance, as if the master of this divine light before them was destined to stand at the pinnacle of Zhutian Wanjie, becoming a great Dark Being whose back they could not hope to gaze upon even one billionth of!

Facing this ultimate strike that gathered all of Yao's foundation and Dao insight, Ye Wuque's gaze also grew solemn to the extreme.

But what burned in his eyes was an even fiercer battle fire!

"Well struck!"

He let out a long roar, holding nothing back anymore!

Boom—!!!!!

Sky-fl surging Golden Blood Qi, like a cosmic volcano suppressed for myriad ages, erupted with a thunderous roar!

In an instant it suppressed the Star River, covered the cosmos, and blotted out the sky and sun!

That Blood Qi was as blazing as a billion great suns burning simultaneously, and the heat it radiated was enough to incinerate all things; merely by spreading out, the Blood Qi directly vaporized and annihilated countless shattered great stars floating nearby!

This was the terrifying Blood Qi that Ye Wuque possessed from cultivating his Flesh to a realm unprecedented in all of history!

At this moment, this boundless Blood Qi transformed into the most violent, most Primordial power, driving his combat strength to climb madly toward an unknowable Absolute Peak!

But this was not all!

Under the augmentation of the four great Extreme Realm radiances, Ye Wuque, for the first time while clashing with another, actively drew forth that... power of the Tiandao he had pioneered himself, hidden in the deepest reaches of his body and closely linked to his own Tiandao light cluster!

Though it was only a Prototype, though it was but an insignificant trace, the instant this power appeared, it was as if some forbidden rule in the unseen had been touched!

The aura around Ye Wuque abruptly grew even more profound, even more unfathomable!

It was a unique Dao Rhythm, entirely distinct from any known Heavenly Dao Law, carrying a quality of defying heaven and forging one's own cosmos!

Rumble—!!!

Ye Wuque threw his punch!

No complex technique—just perfectly fusing and condensing the Blood Qi pushed to its zenith, the power of the four great Extreme Realms, and that trace of his own Tiandao's power into this single punch!

A fist-light of the utmost extremity, as if to pierce through Reincarnation and blast apart the myriad ages, like the first lightning bolt of Open Heaven and Split Earth, ferociously met that cosmic divine light that filled heaven and earth!

This collision had no deafening roar, no heaven-destroying, earth-shattering explosion.

There was only... a crushing and grinding at the level of the Tiandao!

Under the watch of countless horrified gazes, the cosmic divine light that represented Yao's Dao, the instant it made contact with Ye Wuque's fist-light that contained the Prototype of his own Tiandao, was as if encountering its nemesis, letting out a silent wail!

The will of "Heaven" contained within the divine light, that Dao Rhythm which perfectly merged the power of heaven and earth, before Ye Wuque's fist-light carrying the utmost radiant sharpness and heaven-defying aura, seemed to lose its foundation, beginning to disintegrate and shatter inch by inch!

Puff—!!

Divine light trembled violently, and within it Yao suddenly manifested a figure, his face turning as pale as paper in an instant, and he kept coughing up fresh blood in large gulps!

He was struck as if by an invisible giant hammer, his body uncontrollably flung backward like a cannonball, shattering tens of thousands of stars along the way!

The four rays of Extreme Realm brilliance surrounding him flickered erratically, as if they could extinguish at any moment!

While being flung backward, he stared at Ye Wuque with a gaze full of extreme shock and disbelief, and let out a dream‑like exclamation:

"This... this is impossible!!"

"What... this Blood Qi... you... could you... have reached Extreme Realm already in the Body‑Refining Realm?!"

"And that aura... Tiandao... you... you actually created a Tiandao of your own!!!"

"You're only this age... how could you... how could you possess such... defying‑heaven achievement?!!"

In Yao's heart, it seemed as if billions of thunders exploded simultaneously! It completely upended his perception!
