Chapter 717: Crazy Breakthrough!

In just a few hours, Ye Wuque's cultivation, like riding a rocket, surged forward, breaking from Seal King Immortal Initial Stage straight to Seal King Immortal Great Perfection Realm in one go! He crossed a full six sub‑realms!

Moreover, each realm was refined by him to the utmost, flawless and perfect, without any flaw or hint of emptiness.

It seemed as if he had spent tens of thousands of years, step by step, cultivating each realm to Great Perfection before breaking to the next.

Such a breakthrough speed, if spread, would shake the entire Zhutian Wanjie, making countless ancient monsters who have lived endless ages drop their jaws in disbelief!

One must know that within the Seal King Immortal realm, the barriers between each sub‑realm are like a Heavenly Moat.

Ordinary Dark Cultivators need thousands, even tens of thousands of years, countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and countless cycles of life‑and‑death grinding just to have a chance to break a sub‑realm.

Many cultivators spend their whole lives trapped in Seal King Immortal Initial Stage, unable to advance.

But Ye Wuque, in only a few hours, crossed six sub‑realms and surged straight to the pinnacle of Seal King Immortal, the Great Perfection realm! This utterly overturns every cultivator's understanding of cultivation!

Even more terrifying, as his cultivation kept breaking, the heavens and earth sent down dreadful Thunder Tribulations.

After all, his breakthrough was so defiant of Heaven that it triggered the rules of the Zhutian Dao, inviting the Dao's trial.

From the moment he broke through Seal King Immortal Mid Stage, Thunder Tribulations began to coalesce.

At first it was just ordinary Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, but as his realm kept breaking, the level of the Thunder Tribulation rose rapidly.

From Nine Heavens Divine Thunder to Chaos Thunder Tribulation to World‑Ending Thunder Tribulation, and finally, when he broke into Seal King Immortal Great Perfection, the entire Void spanning billions of miles was completely covered by an endless Chaos Thunder Sea.

In that thunder sea, countless Thunder Dragons, Thunder Phoenixes, Thunder Qilins, and myriad Thunder Dao Divine Beasts formed from Dao rules surged, each bolt of thunder light containing terrifying power capable of annihilating Supreme strong ones.

Even a typical Sealed King Immortal Peak strongman, if merely brushed by the afterglow of a thunder bolt, would instantly turn to ash, his divine soul unable to persist.

But these dreadful Thunder Tribulations, falling on Ye Wuque, not only failed to harm him a iota, they became his Dark Nourishment.

The destructive and negative forces within the Thunder Tribulation were instantly refined by the Dark Sacred Law Origin, transmuted into pure essence;

The Thunder Dao rules inside the tribulation were parsed and absorbed by the Time‑Space Holy Method, merging into his Time‑Space Dao Fruit;

The offensive power within the tribulation was absorbed by the Battle Sage Method, nourishing his War Path cultivation;

The life essence within the tribulation was transformed by the Creation Saint Art, continuously tempering his Flesh, making its strength ever more terrifying.

The World‑Ending Thunder Tribulation that others avoid becomes, for him, an excellent supplement for power increase.

The Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor standing aside had already been stunned.

He stood outside the thunder sea, his ten‑thousand‑foot Dragon body frozen, a pair of dragon eyes bulging with incredulous horror, even forgetting to breathe.

He has lived endless ages, seen countless Heavenly Prides, the Children of Epoch, even some defiant forbidden existences, yet he has never seen anyone break realms and face Thunder Tribulations like this!

"How can this be… how can this be…"

The Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor muttered to himself, his voice trembling slightly.

"Just a few hours… from Seal King Immortal Initial Stage, racing all the way to Seal King Immortal Great Perfection… crossing six sub‑realms… is this… is this still a human?"

He recalled his own days, from Seal King Immortal Initial Stage to Mid Stage, taking a full two hundred years, and that made him one of the most elite Heavenly Prides of the Dragon Clan across all ages, revered by countless Dragon Clan juniors as a legend.

But compared with Ye Wuque, his own cultivation speed is as slow as a snail crawling, not even worthy of lifting a shoe!

"And this Thunder Tribulation…"

The Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor watched the World‑Ending thunder sea capable of killing Supreme strong ones, watched Ye Wuque sit cross‑legged within it as if bathing in a spring breeze, letting the tribulation strike him without a hair harmed; his aura grew stronger, his Dao Heart began to quake violently, spawning a deep absurd sense of questioning existence.

Others, when breaking realms and facing Thunder Tribulations, are ultra‑cautious, exhausting all effort to resist, fearing a single slip would be slashed to death, ending in Death Path Vanish.

But Ye Wuque, on the contrary, treats the tribulation as nourishment, the more it strikes, the stronger he becomes, the more he breaks, the fiercer he gets.

This is sheer irrationality! This utterly overturns perception!

It took a good while before the Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor slowly calmed his turbulent emotions.

He gazed at the young figure in the thunder sea, his eyes showing not only shock but also reverence, and a hint of relief.

Relieved that the Dragon Clan chose to stand with Ye Wuque rather than oppose him.

Otherwise, with Ye Wuque's defiant growth speed, it wouldn't be long before he, in front of him, would truly be like an ant.

No! I should say! I should already be no different from an ant before Ye Wuque!

And now, he is completely numb.

From first meeting Ye Wuque till now, this young man has given him countless shocks.

He, with Seal King Immortal Initial Stage cultivation, crossed countless realms, slaying Heavenly Dao Supreme.

He laid out his trump card, brutally slashing a Supreme Without Equal Great Perfection Dark Overlord.

Now, he again used a few hours, crossed six sub‑realms, and surged to Seal King Immortal Great Perfection.

Now, even if Ye Wuque does something even more outrageous or defiant of Heaven, he will have no further surprises.

He now can only look forward.

Eagerly awaiting how terrifyingly high Ye Wuque's power will skyrocket after the breakthrough.

One must know that when Ye Wuque was at Seal King Immortal Initial Stage, he could already slay a Supreme Without Equal Great Perfection strongman.

Now that he has broken into Seal King Immortal Great Perfection, how far will his strength ascend?

What kind of defiant miracle will he create next?

At this moment, Ye Wuque within the thunder sea has his aura risen to the extreme.

The Seal King Immortal Great Perfection realm has been fully refined by him to flawless perfection, leaving no room for further improvement.

Yet the power inside him continues to surge wildly, and the surrounding Dark Origin is still largely unabsorbed.

His Dao Foundation has been refined by the Four Great Sacred Law Origins to the utmost, like ten‑thousand‑year mysterious steel, incredibly stable, now fully capable of bearing higher‑realm power.

Ye Wuque slowly opened his eyes, and from his pupils burst dazzling divine light, like two swords, cleaving the sky‑filled thunder sea, tearing the endless chaos.

He felt the near‑boiling power within, sensed the barrier as thin as paper, and a sharp smile curled his lips.

He slowly rose, let out a sky‑ward howl, his voice like a thunderclap, shaking the entire No Return Path, echoing across billions of miles of Void.

"Immortal King, break for me!"

Boom—!
