Chapter 35

Heaven and earth fell into Dead Silence, all things stagnated.

The three Jun family Immortal Ancestors were like three eternal demonic mountains, pressing down upon the Void; the surging killing intent they coalesced into was like a substantive crimson ocean, completely submerging and locking onto Ye Wuque.

The terrifying pressure of Immortal-level spread unchecked, the earth below continually collapsed, distant mountains shattered, countless Heavenly Pride trembled violently, even breathing became extremely difficult.

Beneath the Immortal, all are ants!

This is no empty talk, but the eternal, unchanging Tie Lu of the Nine Heavens Ten Earths!

Between the vast Divine Realm and the Immortal Realm lies a chasm that cannot be filled by quantity, a Eternal Heaven Rift of life's essence!

Even if Ye Wuque's battle power defies heaven, capable of suppressing and killing beings who have stepped onto the Immortal path across realms, before true Immortality he remains as insignificant as dust; the opponent need not lift a finger, a single thought could likely crush him a hundred million times!

Moreover, at this moment it is the three Immortal Ancestors, carrying heaven‑toppling hatred and undying relentless resolve, joining forces to exert pressure!

Ye Wuque's black robe fluttered, his posture remained ramrod straight under the pressure capable of crushing the Star River, yet his gaze grew grave to the utmost.

His inner Divine Power had already run autonomously to its limit, the faint glow of the Undying Indestructible Imperial Golden Body flowing beneath his skin, resisting that all‑penetrating terrifying pressure.

His thoughts flashed, and he had already made contact with the 'Realm‑Traversing Void‑Breaking Talisman' hidden deep within the Primordial Sun Ring, obtained from the Mysterious Being.

This is currently the sole path to survival; though the cost is unknown, it is still better than being crushed on the spot.

However, just as he prepared to activate the Realm‑Traversing Void‑Breaking Talisman at any cost——

Hum!

In his bosom, inside the jade bottle holding three heaven‑defying Divine Pills, one of the pills suddenly transmitted an extremely faint yet crystal‑clear……throb!

It was that pill, entirely dark‑purple, shaped like a vortex of destruction, emanating the intent to slay immortals, kill gods, and annihilate the Dao!

It seemed like a ferocious beast that had lain dormant for eternity, disturbed by the three strands of Immortal‑level killing intent and energy from outside, slowly……awakening!

An indescribable, extremely dangerous excitement and sense of 'interest' emanated from within the pill, as if it had encountered prey worthy of a 'play'!

Ye Wuque's pupils contracted sharply!

In the flash of lightning and flint, a crazy and bold thought shot through his mind!

This pill……could it possibly cope with the present situation?

Without any hesitation, at this life‑and‑death juncture, trusting this heaven‑defying object from the owner of the frontal bone is the only choice!

He instantly abandoned activating the Realm‑Traversing Void‑Breaking Talisman, his thoughts moving!

Swish!

The dark‑purple pill instantly appeared in his palm!

Freed from the jade bottle's restraint, its true terrifying aura finally leaked out a trace!

Boom!!!

Merely a trace of aura leaking out, heaven and earth abruptly changed color!

Centering on Ye Wuque's palm, the Void within a radius of ten thousand li instantly twisted, collapsed, and fell into absolute darkness and nothingness!

A supreme Dao Rule that towers over all beings, regards all things as straw dogs, and is born solely for slaughter and destruction, like a slumbering emperor opening his eyes, indifferently scanning the mortal realm!

"Huh?!"

Above the high heavens, the three Jun family Immortal Ancestors' faces drastically changed almost the instant the pill appeared!

On their eternally unchanging, icy, withered faces appeared for the first time an incredulous shock and……a violent tremor stemming from life's instinct!

What is this?!

How could a mere junior possess in his hand a destructive aura that makes their Immortal souls scream and fear?!

That tiny pill gave them a sense of danger that far surpassed facing a siege of same‑rank Immortals!

It seemed like……a natural nemesis!

It is a……doomsday weapon born specifically to end beings like them!

"Oh no! This kid is strange! Quickly stop him!"

Jun Tianming let out a hoarse, sharp roar, no longer bothering with Immortal decorum, as the three simultaneously struck with all their might!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three withered palms, imbued with the power to grind stars and overturn heaven and earth, tore through the Void, carrying the radiance of the Jun family's Supreme Divine Art, like three collapsing firmaments, fiercely slamming down upon Ye Wuque!

They sought to erase Ye Wuque and that dangerous object from this world entirely before the pill could unleash its power!

However, it was already too late!

Ye Wuque felt the pill in his palm, impatient and almost about to fly out on its own, destructive impulse; he no longer hesitated, his Divine Power surging like a breached dam, flooding into the pill, and then he hurled it violently……at the three terrifying palms that blotted out the sky!

The motion was light and casual, as if merely tossing a pebble.

But the instant the dark‑purple pill left his hand, it burst forth with a terrifying radiance that shone through the ages and made the stars of Zhutian dim!

It was no longer a pill's shape, but had transformed into an infinitely expanding, infinitely profound……source of destruction!

"Hum——!!!"

A destructive beam of indescribable color, like the first thread of terminating light at the moment of Open Heaven and Split Earth, shot forth from that source of destruction, first meeting Jun Tianming's giant palm!

Boom—rumble—rumble!

The giant palm, imbued with Immortal law and capable of easily shattering an entire Great Universe, upon contacting the destructive beam, was like ice under the scorching sun—silently and soundlessly……melting, annihilating, turning into the most primal Void!

Together with its divine‑art symbols and Immortal Dao Rule, every trace of its former existence was completely erased!

"No!!!"

Jun Tianming uttered a shrill, desperate wail of utter despair, feeling his Immortal body cultivated over eternity, coeval with heaven and earth, and his indestructible soul, being frenziedly eroded and disintegrated by an ultimate destructive force beyond comprehension or resistance!

He desperately exerted all his reserves, burning his life‑origin, as piece after piece of protective Divine Weapons flew out automatically, yet upon contacting the remnants of that destructive beam they wailed and turned to flying ash!

All of this happened too fast!

So fast that the attacks of the other two Jun family Ancestors had just barely landed!

That source of destruction seemed to possess its own spirituality, trembling slightly.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Again, two slightly thinner but equally terrifying destruction beams, like the gaze of the Death God, precisely shot toward the other two Jun Ancestors, who were terrified out of their wits and wanted to flee madly!

Spare my life!!

Fellow Daoist, spare me! My Jun clan is willing……

The words of pleading and threat had not yet finished when they were completely cut off in despair.

The second destruction beam swept past; the ancestor who had produced an ancient bronze mirror immortal artifact, both person and mirror, instantly solidified, then like weathered sand sculpture, crumbled inch by inch, turning into cosmic dust that drifted away.

That astonishingly defensive immortal artifact couldn't even block for an instant.

The third destruction beam, like a bone‑eating maggot, caught up with the last Jun Ancestor who had already torn open the void and fled hundreds of millions of li, ignoring the distance of space, ignoring the layers of protective divine light bursting from his body, and pierced straight through him!

That ancestor's figure stiffened in the void, his face filled with utter fear and unwillingness; then his whole being, from inside out, burst forth with endless destructive purple light, silently…… completely annihilated, not even a trace of ash left.

From Ye Wuque throwing the pill, to the three Jun Immortal Ancestors who had shaken the Ten Lands and lived for who knows how many tens of thousands of years being utterly annihilated in body and spirit, the whole process took only the snap of a finger!

Between heaven and earth, the originally boundless terrifying pressure and killing intent receded like a tide, vanishing without a trace.

Only death‑like silence remained.

And that which floated in the air, slowly rotating, its light slightly dimmed, yet still emitted the dark‑purple destruction source that brings an end to all things.

It seemed to have done a trivial little thing, a slight tremor, and turned back into that dark‑purple pill the size of a longan, which with a 'whoosh' flew back into Ye Wuque's palm, lay down obediently, as if it had never shown its power.

Ye Wuque grasped the pill and could clearly feel that the destructive energy contained within had been depleted by roughly one tenth.

A piece of information naturally flowed into his mind:

This pill is named the 'Exterminate Saints, Slay Immortals Pill'; it is refined by supreme means using the final core of a dying universe as a guide, merging myriad god‑slaying, Dao‑slaying vapors, and is created specifically to slay immortals and higher beings!

Each use requires drawing in vast amounts of destructive energy or enduring long ages of silence to recover.

In a short time, it cannot be used again.

Even so, this is a heaven‑defying great killer weapon capable of driving all the Immortal Titans of the Nine Heavens Ten Lands into madness and fear!

Below, all the surviving Heavenly Pride, including Zhan Qianqiu, Xiao Shuihan, Mo Li, etc., had already completely petrified, stiff as clay and wood carvings stuck in place.

Their thoughts ceased, their minds went blank, and they could only stare blankly at the empty void high above, as well as that solitary black‑robed figure.

Dead?

The Jun family's three Immortal Ancestors…… just died like that?

Like crushing three bugs…… were they instantly wiped out?

Not even a semblance of resistance or struggle?

That's immortality!

The true ceiling of the Ten Lands!

Titans standing firm through myriad ages without falling!

The foundation of the Jun family's unshakable standing!

Countless people swallowed hard, feeling their throats dry as fire, their hearts pounding wildly, almost leaping out of their chests!

Their gazes at Ye Wuque were no longer reverence, but…… looking at a deity! looking at a monster! It was a fear and shock beyond their comprehension!

「Black‑robed War God…… he…… he still has how many

「How few trump cards remain? 」「That pill…… what exactly is this heaven‑defying thing?! Instantly kills immortals! Unheard of! 」

「From now on, within the Ten Lands, who dares to provoke him, Ye Wuque?! 」

「The Jun clan…… is finished! Top‑tier Heavenly Pride wiped out, the Immortal foundation lost in an instant…… the Ten Lands are about to change! 」

Endless shock and discussion, after the dead silence, spread like a plague through the crowd.
