Liu Mingyue's Challenge, Ye Ming's Strength Increases

While Ye Ming was deep within the Primordial Forbidden Zone, devouring the True Dragon Blood to strengthen himself...

A piece of news spread across the Mystic Heaven Immortal Domain, reaching the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

Liu Mingyue, the Saintess of the Flying Immortal Sacred Land, declared she would fight Ye Ming, the Forbidden Son of the Primordial Forbidden Zone, to the death.

The moment these words were spoken, the entire Mystic Heaven Immortal Domain shook.

"I heard that this generation's Saintess of the Flying Immortal Sacred Land condensed four immortal lights in the Dao Palace Realm. Her talent is astonishing—she's one of the current prodigies!"

A young cultivator exclaimed in shock. In the Dao Palace Realm, some prodigies could birth a wisp of immortal qi within their bodies upon breaking through, a mark of true genius. Liu Mingyue, however, had condensed four immortal qi in the Dao Palace Realm...

"Haha, the Primordial Forbidden Zone may be formidable, but that Forbidden Son probably doesn't dare to accept the challenge!"

Someone laughed. After the last incident, everyone in the Mystic Heaven Immortal Domain knew that the Forbidden Son of the Primordial Forbidden Zone relied solely on his background. His cultivation talent was trash.

"Heh, if he stays holed up in the Forbidden Zone for this lifetime, naturally no one will trouble him!"

"What use is a strong background? This is a great era, with prodigies standing shoulder to shoulder. If one lacks personal strength, it's ultimately useless!"

Voices spread across the Three Thousand Dao Provinces of the Mystic Heaven Immortal Domain, mostly from young prodigies who held Ye Ming in utter contempt.

At this moment, within the Forbidden Zone.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Inside the Primordial Demonic Palace, Ye Ming sat cross-legged. The Sacred Spring around him had completely dried up, drained by his absorption. His body blazed brilliantly, radiating countless rays of light.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

On every inch of his skin, Dragon Qi coiled—one hundred and eight strands in total—making his form even more extraordinary. With the slightest movement of his aura, it exuded an overwhelming pressure.

The Primordial Demonic Body was already immensely powerful on its own. Now, having devoured the power of the True Dragon Blood, Ye Ming could even catch a Dao weapon with his bare hands.

"Finally, the True Dragon Treasure Blood has been fully absorbed!"

A voice rang out as Ye Ming opened his eyes. Light swirled within his gaze, dazzling and brilliant.

As for the technique Ye Ming currently cultivated, it was the Supreme Ultimate Law—the Primordial Demonic Art, created by his so-called cheap father and perfectly suited to the Primordial Demonic Body.

Beyond that, Ye Ming had also found a scroll of the Blood Dragon Nine Heavens Art in the Primordial Forbidden Zone's treasury, which could unleash the full power of the True Dragon Blood within him.

This was the benefit of having top-tier backing—legendary heavenly materials and earthly treasures, supreme techniques—nothing was lacking!

Just then, within the Forbidden Zone, several elders including Blood Soul had already received news from the outside world. They weren't worried at all about Liu Mingyue issuing a challenge to their Ye Ming.

What angered them was that people were still calling their Forbidden Son a cultivation waste!

"Hmph, those short-sighted ants—how could they possibly know the true strength of the Forbidden Son now!"

"Breaking the Eternal Extreme Realm—how many prodigies of this era have accomplished that?"

"As I see it, it's time to let them know the Forbidden Son's current situation!"

"Hmph, just a Saintess from some Sacred Land—where does she get the nerve?"

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Footsteps came from behind the great hall. A figure in black robes, with a handsome face—it was Ye Ming. As he emerged, he caught the elders' words and heard about that Liu family prodigy challenging him.

"Oh? That Liu Mingyue, is it? I didn't go looking for her, but she's stepped forward on her own."

"Good."

Ye Ming's gaze was deep, carrying a chill. He stood in the great hall, exuding boundless confidence.

"Congratulations, Forbidden Son, on your increased strength!"

Blood Soul and the other elders bowed in salute as they saw Ye Ming appear, their eyes tinged with awe. Though they had only taken a brief glance, they could already tell that Ye Ming's power had grown significantly compared to before.

"Since my breakthrough, I've yet to fight any of this era's prodigies. Let me see what kind of goods they really are."

At this moment, Ye Ming's eyes burned with eager anticipation.

A few days later, news spread from the Primordial Forbidden Zone: the Forbidden Son, Ye Ming, had accepted Liu Mingyue's challenge.

A single stone stirred a thousand ripples. Many cultivators had assumed the Forbidden Son would never dare to accept the challenge. But then...

"What? That Forbidden Son actually accepted?"

Across the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, countless prodigies were stunned. After all, Ye Ming's previous talent had been... well...
