Chapter 55

The manic grin on Xu Bukun's face froze instantly, his eyes bulging out, filled with utter horror and disbelief.

He could even clearly see at the split surface of the cleaved Huntian Sphere, the flowing Jimo Dao Rule wailing, collapsing, and dissipating!

"No!! My Jimo Huntian Sphere!!"

He let out a heart-rending howl; that was a precious treasure bestowed upon him by the clan elders for self-defense!

He... he was actually crippled by a single halberd?!

However, something even more terrifying awaited him!

The golden halberd light that had split the Jimo Huntian Sphere showed no loss of momentum, as if merely performing a trivial task, continuing to slash lightly at him...

"Fast!"

"Extremely fast!"

"As if ignoring the distance of space!"

Xu Bukun's soul nearly fled, his scalp instantly exploding!

An unprecedented shadow of death completely enveloped him!

He let out a strange cry, the Holy Clan blood in his body burning wildly, an ancient-looking purple battle armor phantom instantly covering his whole body, while his body desperately lunged sideways!

But he was still half a beat too slow!

"Sizzle!"

The golden halberd light flashed and was gone!

"Ugh——!!"

Xu Bukun let out a piercing, extreme scream; half of his body, together with the hastily condensed battle armor phantom, was severed as if by an invisible blade, separating instantly!

Blood spurted out like a waterfall, dyeing the Void red!

He could even see his own arm and part of his viscera flying away!

Severe injury! An unprecedented severe injury!

The entire place fell into Dead Silence!

Everyone was like a duck with its neck choked, eyes wide, mouths open, yet unable to make a sound!

One halberd strike! Just a casual halberd strike! It not only ruined the terrifying holy artifact imitation, but nearly killed the hidden Holy Clan heir in an instant!

What on earth is the origin of that broken great halberd?!!

Bian Haoyu and the Piaomiao Holy Maiden only felt a chill rise from the soles of their feet to the crown of their heads; their gazes at that great halberd were filled with boundless fear and awe!

That is definitely a supreme Divine Weapon with an earth-shattering origin!

"Ah!! Ye Wuque!! I want you dead! I want you dead!!"

Excruciating pain and humiliation completely overwhelmed Xu Bukun's reason; his remaining half-body erupted with towering resentment and madness, forcing himself to stabilize his stance despite his grave wounds!

"Holy Clan blood! Burn! Iron Mountain Reliance!!"

He let out a beast-like roar; his remaining shoulder vibrated at an eerie frequency, each vibration resonating with the Void, as if invisible Divine Mountains were condensing and stacking upon his shoulder!

A pure, extreme force capable of shattering a Star Domain erupted explosively!

He transformed into a humanoid raging Dragon, carrying a mutual-destruction madness, and fiercely charged at Ye Wuque!

Wherever he passed, space shattered inch by inch!

"Not good! It's Iron Mountain Reliance! Brother Ye, be careful! This is the Xu Clan's clan-protection killing technique!"

Duan Xiu Luo shouted a warning.

Ye Wuque's eyes narrowed slightly, yet he did not retreat.

The phantom of the Divine Lotus behind his head flashed again!

The Six Paths Divine Lotus is hailed as king!

It erupted instantly!

"Boom!!!"

Xu Bukun's "Iron Mountain Reliance," capable of shattering vast expanses of the Star Domain, slammed hard onto the light curtain hanging from the Six Paths Divine Lotus, producing a deafening roar!

The light curtain violently rippled, the lotus phantom swayed, yet ultimately…… it firmly held!

"How is that possible?!" Xu Bukun's eyes flashed again with disbelief; his ultimate strike, powered by burning his bloodline, couldn't even break the opponent's defense!

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it!!!" He went completely mad, his eyes flashing with final resolve and madness, "You forced me to this! You forced me to this!!"

He suddenly drew a deep breath; the burning blood flames around him abruptly retracted, his whole person becoming extremely solemn, even carrying an eerie piety.

Then, he suddenly became wildly insane, his body twisting while his lips muttered...

He slowly opened his mouth, chanting an ancient and eerie scale:

"You walking toward me make me so restless..."

"..."

"You are so beautiful, chicken!!"

"..."

This chant began faintly, yet instantly pierced the Void, reaching deep into the soul!

Each note seemed to turn into a tangible calamity power!

"The 'Too Beautiful Myriad Calamities' melody! It is the Xu Clan's forbidden divine ability!!"

"Xu Bukun has gone mad!"

Duan Xiu Luo's face instantly turned ashen as paper, his voice trembling, "One note, one calamity; myriad notes sounding together bring myriad calamities upon the body! It is said that a supreme expert of the Xu Clan once slew a renowned Immortal King with this melody! Brother Ye, retreat quickly!!"

Bian Haoyu and the Piaomiao Holy Maiden were also shocked and terrified, frantically retreating while sealing their six senses, fearing even a trace of that eerie sound wave would touch them!

In an instant, endless sound-wave calamities evolved!

Inner demon tribulation flames ignited from the Void, scorching the soul!

Bone-corroding yin wind wailed, freezing the blood vessels!

Soul-splitting demonic sound echoed, tearing the will!

Endless illusory realms proliferated, sinking into myriad ages!

……

All kinds of tribulations, all formed from sound waves, covering heaven and earth, in an instant completely submerging Ye Wuque!

This has already surpassed the realm of ordinary divine abilities, involving the level of law and causality, eerie and terrifying to the extreme!

Facing this inescapable, unstoppable myriad tribulation sound wave, Ye Wuque's expression also became unprecedentedly solemn.

But he, still did not retreat!

Instead, he slowly closed his eyes.

In the next moment, an indescribably vast, majestic, and awe-inspiring terrifying soul fluctuation, like a star sea that had slept for countless ages, suddenly surged from deep within his sea of consciousness at the brow…… awakened!

Wong!!!

The intangible soul pressure spread, not violent, yet carrying a supreme, all-controlling primordial intent!

It was as if he were the source of all soul power, the incarnation of the will of myriad gods!

The myriad sound-wave tribulations that surged forth, upon contacting this soul pressure, were like encountering a sovereign's subjects: they trembled, wailed, and then…… spontaneously collapsed and dissipated!

No matter myriad tribulations, when I, the source god, emerge, no tribulation can invade!

「This, this is……」

Bian Haoyu clutched his head, feeling that soul pressure; though not aimed at him, it still made his soul tremble, as if facing a supreme sovereign of the soul Dao!

「Source…… Source God Realm!!

The ethereal holy maiden cried out in shock, her clear, cold voice filled with endless shock and disbelief.

「Soul cultivation……」

「Above the Splitting Dao Great Void God are the Splitting Dao Grand Void God, Splitting Dao Elder Void God, Splitting Dao Death Void God, Splitting Dao Water Void God, Splitting Dao Imperial Void God, Splitting Dao Emperor Void God, Splitting Dao Holy Void God, Splitting Dao Supreme Void God, Splitting Dao Chaos Void God, Splitting Dao Creation Void God, Splitting Dao Reincarnation Void God, Splitting Dao Yin-Yang Void God, Splitting Dao Lightning Void God, Splitting Dao Heaven-Devouring Void God, Splitting Dao Earth-Exterminating Void God, and finally the Splitting Dao Eternal Heaven-Defying Primordial Chaos Void God! 」

「Then comes…… the Solid God Realm! Another great realm of soul cultivation! 」

「It can be divided into Minor Solid God, Intermediate Solid God, Major Solid God, Grand Solid God, Vast Solid God, Heaven-Defying Solid God, Terrifying Solid God, Yin-Yang Solid God, Creation Solid God, Chaos Solid God, Touching Dao Grand Solid God, Grasping Dao Grand Solid God, Devouring Dao Grand Solid God, Splitting Dao Grand Solid God, Collapsing Dao Grand Solid God, Exterminating Dao Grand Solid God, and finally the Eternal Indestructible Nine Heavens Emperor Solid God! 」

「Only after the Eternal Indestructible Nine Heavens Emperor Solid God reaches the final stage, undergoes countless refinements and continual evolution, does there exist a faint chance to break into that…… boundless great…… Source God Realm! 」

After Void Gods and Solid Gods…… comes the legendary Source God!

The true path of soul cultivation that can be called miraculous and renowned throughout the world is a great realm!

He, he actually stepped into this incredibly terrifying realm?!

How could this be possible?!

Soul cultivation is a hundred times harder than spiritual power!

In the vast heavens, Void Gods are already minor talents, Solid God realm can be called masters, while the Source God realm…… is a legendary realm countless soul cultivators dream of yet cannot even reach the threshold!

This means his soul has traced back to the origin, near immortal and indestructible; in a thought, he can evolve myriad things and also suppress myriad souls!

And according to her knowledge, in her faction, the Ethereal Holy Palace, those few beings of extraordinary attainment in the soul path— which one of them did not, after cultivating for endless ages, barely manage to break into the Source God Realm?!

It can be said that a living being as young as Ye Wuque who breaks through to this great level is unlikely to have a second in the vast heavens!

At this moment, under the might of the Source God, Xu Bukun's seemingly invincible 'Supreme Myriad Tribulations Melody' is like a toddler learning to swing fists at a giant, laughable yet pitiable!

The sound-wave tribulations receded like a tide, and the backlash power instantly blasted into Xu Bukun's body!

「Pfft——!! 」

Xu Bukun spat out a large mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs; all his madness, hatred, and unwillingness turned into utter fear and despair, his body like a broken puppet, he fell straight from the air, slammed heavily onto the ground, twitched a few times, then completely lost consciousness, losing all combat ability.

In the starry sky, only that black-robed figure stood still, the vast Source God aura surrounding it gradually receding.

He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze deep as the cosmic starry sky.

The entire place fell silent, not even a sparrow's chirp.

Everyone's gaze focused on him, filled with boundless shock, fear, and profound reverence.

The hidden world Holy Clan heir, having exhausted all his trump cards and even used forbidden divine abilities, was nonetheless crushed like dry weeds!

The name of the black-robed Ye Wuque, together with that mysterious great halberd and the terrifying soul cultivation of the legendary Source God Realm, will surely spread in the most shocking manner throughout the vast heavens, and even…… to the Nine Heavens Ten Lands!
