Chapter 437: A Name Well Earned

Ye Junlin's gaze fixed on Ye Wuque, waiting for his answer.

Ye Wuque's mind and spirit were also somewhat unsettled.

Indeed, the number one of the younger generation in the Other Shore World, the rightful first on the Heavenly Ladder Ranking, whose power that dwarfs the ages is no boast!

The name lives up to its reputation!

He truly has the qualification and strength!

This Ye Junlin has truly attained the Body Tempering Extreme Realm!

Body Tempering Extreme Realm! Blood Ember Star River!

Ye Wuque deeply understood what achieving the Body Tempering Extreme Realm meant.

Birth background, talent, luck, opportunity, temperament, and so on—all must be present!

Even if all those conditions are gathered, beings who can successfully reach the Extreme Realm are still exceedingly rare!

Moreover, the Body Tempering Extreme Realm is almost the hardest among the Extreme Realms!

One should know that Body Tempering is the first stage of the Cultivation System; ordinarily, beings at this stage are still very weak and cannot bear the terrifying power of the Extreme Realm!

To clash with the Extreme Realm at this level is practically courting death!

Yet Ye Junlin managed to do it.

And once even the first stage, the Body Tempering Realm, has become an Extreme Realm, the later stages are beyond discussion!

He will most likely pursue perfection! Striving to achieve the Extreme Realm as fully as possible!

Therefore, the number of Extreme Realms Ye Junlin possesses could reach an extraordinarily terrifying level!

Since Ye Wuque began his career, among the Extreme Realm beings he has encountered, aside from Lao Feng, Ye Junlin is the first being who has achieved the Body Tempering Extreme Realm.

The surrounding beings, seeing Ye Junlin unleash terrifying Blood Qi, were all shocked.

"Whoa! This Blood Qi… it's so terrifying!"

"Defying the heavens!"

"It's the Body Tempering Extreme Realm!"

"I didn't expect… besides Ye Wuque, that monster, Ye Junlin has also attained the terrifying Body Tempering Extreme Realm! Truly incredible! No wonder he could trample Xue Jianchen, Gui Qianmo, Ming Jiuhuang and the like to ascend the Other Shore Heavenly Ladder Ranking!"

Ye Wuque gave Ye Junlin a deep look and said in a low voice: "My Body Tempering Extreme Realm is called… Pure Yang Blood Qi…"

Ye Wuque's voice was deep and resonant, each word sounding as if it carried a thousand pounds, striking the ground with force.

The moment his words fell, the golden Blood Qi swirling around him like a raging Star River seemed infused with some immortal, indestructible true intent, suddenly flaring threefold again!

The light was no longer merely dazzling; it carried a vast, universe‑sweeping, evil‑repelling sanctity, a sun‑bright, steel‑strong aura spreading like a tide, even forcing Ye Junlin's all‑covering dark Blood Qi to shrink back slightly.

"Pure Yang Blood Qi… Good! What a Pure Yang Blood Qi!"

Deep within Ye Junlin's eyes, the two points of eternal darkness seemed to ignite, reflecting the excitement and frenzy of meeting a true opponent.

He shouted "Good" three times in a row, each voice higher and more soaring than the last!

"Radiant as the great sun, blazing across the ages! Sun‑bright and steel‑strong, indeed it is a Body Tempering Extreme Realm on the same level as my Blood Ember Star River!"

Ye Junlin let out a long laugh, his laughter brimming with unmatched confidence and domineering intent.

"It seems… if today I don't exhaust every means and draw out every ounce of potential, I cannot truly defeat you!"

"Then… come!"

"Ten Thousand Tribulation Night Emperor Heavenly Skill!"

As the final syllable left his mouth, Ye Junlin's expression became profoundly solemn and majestic; his hands slowly traced in front of him, each motion tugging at the vibrations of the cosmic law, as if venerating the unspeakable Eternal Night Primordial in the abyss.

An ancient, desolate, terrifying aura that seemed to bear the tribulations and sediment of countless nights of darkness erupted thunderously from deep within his towering body!

When this Night Clan's supreme Ancient Heavenly Skill was activated, heaven and earth changed color!

Centered on Ye Junlin, the endless darkness ceased to be a simple haze and turned into layer upon layer of calamity clouds, as if washed by countless epochs.

Within each dark calamity cloud, phantom images of extinguished stars, collapsing worlds, and shattered Tiandao flickered—this is the Ten Thousand Tribulation power inherited and borne by the Night Clan.

Eternal Night serves as the foundation, staunchly resisting the myriad Dao punishments; with each tribulation overcome, the night power refines a pure fraction.

At this moment, Ye Junlin harnesses this Ten Thousand Tribulation condensed power to drive the Eternal Night, its might terrifying beyond imagination!

"Raise your hand, let darkness cover the world! Bring down your palm, crush the heavens!"

Ye Junlin roared low, the darkness entwined with the layered calamity clouds merging completely with his terrifying Blood Ember Star River Blood Qi.

The dark Blood Qi was no longer merely devouring; it now bore a sense of annihilating calamity, as if it could trigger the opponent's internal forces to recoil, cloud the Dao Foundation, and cause the divine soul to undergo tribulation!

He stepped forward, the void beneath his feet collapsing into an eternal dark abyss, his form like a black lightning that shatters ages, once again charging wildly toward Ye Wuque!

His momentum was more than double what it had been before!

"Burning Heaven Eternal Night Body!"

In the charge, Ye Junlin roared again, unleashing the forbidden amplification technique recorded in the Ten Thousand Tribulation Night Emperor Heavenly Skill!

Boom!

His body seemed to truly ignite, but it was not flame that burned—it was the intensely condensed, boiling Eternal Night Primordial!

Complex, arcane dark‑gold patterns flashed across his skin, like the trails of destructive stars suddenly lit in a dark night sky!

His muscles swelled slightly, his lines becoming sharper and more perfect, each inch of flesh coursing with terrifying power capable of crushing the ancient Great Universe and tearing the Chaos Star River.

His eyes turned into two miniature black holes, rotating to devour all light and Divine Sense.

His aura surged upward like a rocket, instantly breaking a limit and reaching a terrifying height that left most of the Heavenly Pride present gasping and unable to comprehend!

The Burning Heaven Eternal Night Body ignites endless night power, casting flesh, divine soul, and Dao power into the ultimate dark furnace for forging, granting a brief peak of invincibility!

His fists can shatter Tiandao's paths, his palms can split the Star River's barriers!

Among peers, none can match him!

The only price is the inevitable post‑battle weakening, but at this moment Ye Junlin clearly disregards it, vowing to crush Ye Wuque with absolute power!

Facing the overwhelming, dark‑god‑like Ye Junlin, Ye Wuque's gaze was as sharp as a heavenly blade, showing no hint of retreat.

"Zhan Character Formula!"

"Infinite Limitless Great Fission!"

"Six Paths Startle God!"

Ye Wuque also did not hesitate to activate the combat power amplification divine technique!

Boom!

The two again brazenly collided at the summit's center!

This collision far surpassed the previous one!

Ye Junlin's fists were wrapped with ten‑thousand eon night force and the destructive oscillations of Blood Ember Star River; where his punches passed, Space did not shatter but displayed a withered, decayed, post‑cataclysmic strange state, as if that area had undergone ten‑thousand eon baptism, its vitality completely cut off!

Ye Wuque then used Pure Yang Blood Qi to drive his supreme fist power, merging the invincible will of the Zhan Character Formula with the ferocious energy of Infinite Limitless Great Fission; his golden fist rose like an undying blazing sun, striking hard upward!

Thud——!!!!

A colossal roar, a thousand times more violent than thunder, exploded!

A terrifying energy sphere, half golden and half black, constantly annihilating and rebirthing, formed at the point where the two fists met, then immediately expanded with a boom and burst!

Destructive shockwaves swept out in a ring; wherever they passed, the summit's rock layer, harder than divine gold, was sliced away like tofu, countless ancient runes deep within the rock lit up, emitting strained wails as they strained to stabilize the mountain!

The two Dark Shadows blurred for an instant at the explosion's core, then rebounded at even greater speed, but almost the moment they touched the ground, they again became two streaks of Guangying tearing the sky, wildly entangling and counterattacking each other!

Ye Junlin's body was like a specter, merging into Darkness, his moves were cunning and ruthless; his fingers, palms, fists, and legs all turned into the most terrifying killing weapons, bearing the corrosive night force of ten‑thousand eons and the incinerating traits of Blood Ember Star River, each strike deadly!

In his Burning Heaven Eternal Night Body state, his speed, strength, defense, and reaction reached an inconceivable level, often allowing attacks to be launched from unimaginable angles.

Ye Wuque remained as steady as a rock; his ultimate combat form, Five Heads Ten Arms, left him with virtually no blind spots, ten limbs—fists, palms, or fingers—exerting every combat skill to the fullest, the power of Pure Yang Blood Qi surging grandly, supremely rigid and yang, naturally countering Ye Junlin's cold, invasive force, often breaking technique with strength, merging yang into darkness.

The Zhan Character Formula made him grow bolder with each battle, his momentum continuously building, and Infinite Limitless Great Fission supplied seemingly endless ferocious energy support!

Bang bang bang bang bang——!!!!

The densely prickling flesh collision sounds, making one's scalp tingle, were like the Nine Heavens war drums being frenziedly beaten; golden and black Blood Qi, fist power, palm wind, and leg shadows intertwined and annihilated wildly, turning that area into a forbidden zone of life and a turbulent vortex of energy!

If the summit itself did not contain the ancient rules and field of the Ultimate Main Road, the aftershocks of their battle might already have been completely erased from the earth!
