Chapter 385: One‑Second Kill, Seven Tribulations to Immortality

Boom—!

As Time passed, the secret realm deep ahead throbbed with ever‑intensifying rumble.

The surrounding starry sky seemed to tremble, as if something terrifying was about to occur.

Finally, at a certain moment, accompanied by an earth‑shaking, violent roar, a massive fissure suddenly burst open there!

In an instant, all the Heavenly Pride around erupted, streaming toward the fissure.

"The Ultimate Secret Realm of the Nine Heavens' branch… Ultimate Opportunity… cannot be missed!"

"Hahaha! Charge!"

Including Tian Ming, Ao Tianyin, Jian Wushuang and Kun Chi, the dazzling Heavenly Pride also stepped into the secret realm.

Ye Wuque's eyes were deep, and he too stepped forward.

Not seeing Lao Feng here did not surprise Ye Wuque; perhaps some other Heavenly Pride had already entered the depths of the Ultimate Main Road—nothing impossible.

The gathered Heavenly Pride here was indeed numerous.

After delving into the secret realm, Ye Wuque reached its core. Here, almost every core monster had converged.

A Dark Shadow appeared before Ye Wuque, its murderous intent unmasked.

It was the ancient Holy Son of the Fate Divine Sect… Tian Ming!

Ye Wuque had long held a grudge against the Fate Divine Sect; that it targeted him did not surprise him.

Those around turned their gazes toward the scene, looking like spectators of a show.

"Heh, Tian Ming really did come after Ye Wuque…"

"But provoking Ye Wuque is far from a wise choice…"

"Ye Wuque in the Great Thousand Divine Universe trial… crushed all rivals; his power was terrifying beyond imagination!"

"I think, though Tian Ming is extraordinary, compared with Ye Wuque he still falls short…"

Obviously, Ye Wuque's fame from the Great Thousand Divine Universe trial still haunts many Heavenly Pride of the Nine Heavens Ten Earths.

Tian Ming's expression was indifferent as he stood aloof in the Void, and said coolly: "Heh, daring to oppose my Fate Divine Sect seals your death without a grave. Since I have already emerged, you are destined to turn to ash in the torrent of Fate…"

Tian Ming was utterly cold, his murderous intent unhidden.

He then struck without hesitation!

【5】 Boom—!

Rumble!

In an instant, heaven and earth shifted, the Star River reversed, and around Tian Ming's towering figure, Force of Fate surged outward, vast and mighty, forming a colossal palm that blocked the sky.

The palm exuded terrifying Fate Aura, turning into a shocking killing intent that crushed layers of Void, shaking heaven and earth, and slammed toward Ye Wuque's direction.

Along the way, countless ancient great stars were shattered, unknown how many.

In a flash it engulfed the starry sky surrounding Ye Wuque!

The surrounding beings, witnessing the terrifying strike, showed a slight change of expression, revealing fear.

"Truly worthy of the Fate Divine Sect's pride, the ancient Holy Son… rumors say he once dazzled an era… now it seems the fame is deserved! This strike… must possess at least seven tribulations worth of near‑immortal power, right?"

Some Heavenly Pride were discussing.

"Indeed. This strike… even using my trump card would be hard to withstand."

In the battlefield's center, Ye Wuque, seeing Tian Ming's terrifying strike, showed on his face an unmistakable… disappointment!

He stood silently in the Void, motionless, simply awaiting the dreadful palm's arrival.

"What's happening? Why isn't Ye Wuque acting?"

A being asked in confusion.

Tian Ming's cold Dark Eye narrowed slightly, and he said coldly: "Dare to underestimate me… Boom!"

Tian Ming exploded!

Ye Wuque blinked.

"What a useless thing… so unrefined in combat."

He hadn't failed to act just now!

Rather, a single glance instantly killed Tian Ming!

There was no need to strike at all!

Around him, the other Heavenly Pride—even Ao Tianyin, Kun Chi and others who had long witnessed Ye Wuque's terrifying power—now showed horrified expressions, pupils contracting sharply as if seeing ghosts in daylight!

"This…"

"How could this be? How did he act?"

"Defying Heaven!"
