Chapter 49: with translation of chapter title

Ye Wuque's eyes narrowed slightly; this Yun Changkong was indeed far stronger than his brother, his application of the Way of Fate reaching a miraculous level.

But he showed no panic at all!

Roar!

The golden qi and blood within his body erupted explosively, surging like a vast ocean!

The Undying Indestructible Imperial Golden Body's seventh transformation, the supreme sovereign blazing yang ultimate operation, burst forth with billions of strands of golden divine radiance from his whole body, supremely rigid and yang, invulnerable to all laws!

The fate‑slashing blade aimed at fortune, upon nearing, was instantly scorched and hissed by the vast, boundless, inviolable golden qi and blood, its power greatly diminished!

At the same time, he pressed his fingers together like a blade and sliced the void!

"Eternal Overgod Blade!"

A vast sweep of blade light lashed out, striking with pinpoint accuracy upon the substantive Heavenly Blade of Fate!

Boom—

A tremendous roar erupted, an energy storm swept through, and both annihilated simultaneously!

"Not bad! But still not enough! The curse of fate follows like a shadow!"

Yun Changkong's face turned ferocious as he waved his hands; countless invisible curses of causality, like bone‑eating maggots, crossed the void and coiled toward Ye Wuque, seeking to contaminate his soul and wither his flesh!

"What, even monsters and spirits dare to shine?"

Ye Wuque shouted coldly, activating the origin of the Battle Sage Method; the Sacred Battle Qi surged vast, unstained by any law, causing all evils to retreat!

When that invisible curse power came within three feet of him, it vanished like snow before a blazing sun!

"What?! Even the fate curse is ineffective?!"

Yun Changkong finally changed expression, his eyes showing shock for the first time.

"Your fate ends here."

Ye Wuque gave him no further chance, taking the initiative to attack!

His figure swayed, and behind him a terrifying, heaven‑toppling giant ape erupted into the sky, roaring heavenward, shaking the Nine Heavens; its five‑headed, ten‑armed form instantly unfolded!

Nine‑Five Supreme Heavenly Art!

Heaven‑Earth Myriad Transformations, God‑Slaying Palm!

Nameless Sword Art!

True Dragon Fist!

Six Paths of Reincarnation, hailed as king!

Zhutian Great Sage's God‑Rending Claw!

He completely let go, the five divine‑ability conceptions perfectly fused under the boost of the Nine‑Five Supreme Heavenly Art; his assault surged like a wind and rainstorm, instantly engulfing Yun Changkong!

Yun Changkong desperately defended, unleashing one fate‑based divine ability after another—fate shield, fate transfer, fate rebound—exhausting all his means!

The two fought from the stellar light path to the edge of the altar; the battle's aftershocks made the entire strange space tremble, causing the surrounding Heavenly Pride to feel their hearts leap!

This battle was incredibly fierce; Yun Changkong, a top‑tier monster of the Fate Divine Mountain, possessed many trump cards, even sacrificing a fate‑system immortal artifact that blasted open Ye Wuque's left shoulder, instantly mangling his flesh and blood, putting him in extreme peril!

But soon, this wound healed at a visibly frantic pace!

Yun Changkong was left dumbfounded!

"What the hell… this…"

Ye Wuque grew braver the more he fought; his fighting will was terrifyingly fierce, his grasp of timing exquisite to the point of perfection, his flesh abnormally strong—he bluntly endured several of Yun Changkong's killing moves, suffering only minor injuries.

Finally, Ye Wuque seized the tiny moment of pause after Yun Changkong activated his artifact!

Ye Wuque's aura suddenly surged!

Six Paths Startle God!

Infinite Limitless Great Fission!

Divine King Nirvana!

Combat power amplified, limits pushed to the extreme!

"True Dragon Fist!"

A terrifyingly powerful True Dragon Fist intent was suddenly unleashed by Ye Wuque!

Boom!

Instantly, the Star River reversed, the cosmos exploded!

The terrifying battle aftershocks directly flung many nearby Heavenly Pride into the air!

Yun Changkong, at the core, felt as if facing an ancient suppression!

No escape, no retreat!

"No!!!" Yun Changkong bellowed in despair and unwillingness, desperately burning his essence blood to mobilize the Force of Fate to resist!

Crack!

His defense shattered like glass!

The terrifying golden dragon slammed straight into his chest without any flourish!

Bang!!

Blood mist exploded!

Yun Changkong's chest was pierced through, his heart shattered!

The light in his eyes instantly dimmed, filled with disbelief and endless resentment; his body, like a broken‑line kite, fell powerlessly onto the cold stellar light path, sending up a spray of starlight ripples.

The current top monster of the Fate Divine Mountain, Yun Changkong… is dead!

Silence!

A death‑like silence enveloped the entire core area!

All the Heavenly Pride—including the wild youth of the War God Heaven Domain, the holy maiden of the Misty Heaven Domain, and even the cloaked figure of the Boundless Heaven Domain—had their gazes instantly lock onto Ye Wuque, making the scene quite unsettled!

The evildoer of the Supreme Heavenly Domain… was actually killed!

And it was done in this mighty suppressive killing manner!

"Gulp……" someone swallowed hard, their voice exceptionally clear in the Dead Silence.

"He… he actually really killed Yun Changkong…"

"The Fate Divine Mountain will certainly not let this go…"

"Good… good heavens, what terrifying strength! Just how many hidden cards does he still have?!"

"Is he really from the Ordinary Heavenly Domain? Why haven't we heard of him before?"

Ye Wuque stood alone in the starry sky, his black robe unstained by a speck of dust; only the terrifying energy fluctuations slowly subsiding around him proved the reality of the fierce battle just fought.

His gaze calmly swept over the crowd; every Heavenly Pride his eyes fell upon felt a jolt in their hearts and instinctively avoided his sight.

His murderous aura surged to the heavens!

Duan Xiu Luo watched Ye Wuque's back, his fists clenched in excitement, his eyes filled with boundless admiration.

Ye Wuque, however, paid no heed to others' gazes; his gaze once again turned toward the central altar.

After the energy impact of the recent battle, the altar seemed… to have undergone a subtle change.

A richer, more sacred aura, yet hinting at something strange, slowly began to spread…
