The Dao Palace Realm stood above the Divine Bridge Realm. Even some of the foremost prodigies of the current age had yet to reach this realm.
At this moment, many young cultivators were shocked.
"As expected of Goddess Mingyue—she has actually entered the Dao Palace Realm!"
"Hehe... without a doubt, this Forbidden Son is dead for sure!"
"That's right. He's clearly nothing but trash, yet he still dared to come here courting death!"
Voices rang out all around, their gazes upon Ye Ming filled with disdain.
At this moment, Ye Ming stood in the heavens, his expression calm.
"So this is the Dao Palace Realm? It doesn't feel like much. It's not even as strong as the Heavenly Tribulation I went through last time!"
Ye Ming's voice was even as he watched the incoming attack.
Boom!
His black hair danced like ink. Ye Ming stood in the heavens as the aura of the Primordial Demonic Body erupted. His body was wrapped in blazing Demonic Flames, like a Chaos Demonic God. His aura climbed higher and higher, his blood began to boil, and his Blood Qi shattered the cosmos, rolling like thunder.
"Kill!"
Ye Ming's aura erupted completely. Though he was only in the Divine Bridge Realm, his aura at this moment was not the slightest bit weaker than Liu Mingyue's in the Dao Palace Realm.
His five fingers clenched into a fist, forming a Fist Seal. With one punch, boundless radiance surged forth. Demonic Light blanketed ten thousand miles, blasting apart the void with a majestic momentum as it roared toward Liu Mingyue.
The void trembled, and the earth quaked.
Rumble!
A tremendous collision rang out. Endless ripples spread through the surrounding space, and dust rose into the air.
They had each exchanged one strike, yet a shocking scene unfolded. Demonic Flames billowed forth, setting the void ablaze. Ye Ming's Fist Seal shattered Liu Mingyue's attack and forced her back.
"Impossible..."
"Strange. Setting aside how quickly his cultivation has risen, how could someone merely in the Divine Bridge Realm force back Saintess Mingyue?"
"Could it be that this Forbidden Son had been playing the pig to eat the tiger all along?"
Watching this scene, some people realized something was wrong. They could see that Ye Ming was only in the Divine Bridge Realm.
Yet he had fought across realms and driven back Liu Mingyue, one of the prodigies of the current age, with a single punch. One had to know that the gap between the Divine Bridge Realm and the Dao Realm was incomparably vast, let alone for those prodigies who had long regarded Ye Ming as trash.
At this moment, countless cultivators above and below the heavens were filled with questions.
"Hehe, is this your strength? Is that all?"
Ye Ming stood in the heavens, sneering as he looked at Liu Mingyue.
"Hmph! It seems all the rumors about you before were false!"
With exquisite features, Liu Mingyue looked at Ye Ming with her phoenix eyes, a trace of gravity appearing in her gaze.
For some reason, just now, Liu Mingyue had sensed a feeling of oppression from Ye Ming.
Her Cold Spirit Physique might not compare to the Ten Supreme Physiques, but among the three thousand physiques, it was still enough to rank among the best.
Liu Mingyue had only ever felt that oppressive force from one peerless monster with a supreme physique. That monster possessed the Divine King Body, one of the Ten Supreme Physiques.
"Impossible... absolutely impossible!!!"
"Let me see what your true physique really is!"
At this moment, Liu Mingyue's aura grew ever more powerful.
Her delicate body glowed with a crystalline light, bright enough to mirror one's reflection. Threads of immortal radiance wound around her as mountains, rivers, seas, suns, moons, and stars manifested, circling her body. She was like an immortal maiden descending into the mortal world, her bearing unparalleled.
This was an exceedingly powerful Dao art of the Flying Immortal Sacred Land, known as the Flying Immortal Secret Canon. Once unleashed, combined with Liu Mingyue's Cold Spirit Physique, it could multiply her original strength dozens of times over.
"Die! Repay the debt of blood for my entire Liu Family!"
Her voice was icy beyond compare, radiating endless chill. A Saint Weapon blooming with Dao Patterns appeared in Liu Mingyue's hand, slashing toward Lin Feng. Sword light rippled out, and an enormous rift appeared in the void, its edge peerlessly sharp.
"Gasp! Isn't that a secret art of the Flying Immortal Sacred Land? It is said that throughout endless ages, few in the Flying Immortal Sacred Land have been able to master it!"
"The Flying Immortal Secret Canon—I have heard of this technique before. It is incomparably powerful. I never imagined someone had truly mastered it!"
At this moment, older cultivators nearby were astonished. Liu Mingyue's cultivation was already far above Ye Ming's. Now, with the power granted by the Flying Immortal Secret Canon, there had to be a limit to fighting across realms.
"It seems the victor has already been decided. It only remains to see whether Saintess Mingyue dares to truly kill this Imperial Son of the Forbidden Zone."
Someone sighed, not believing Ye Ming still possessed the strength to fight Liu Mingyue. The gap was simply too great.
Long Hao, the Holy Son of the Ten Directions Sacred Hall, sneered coldly at this moment.
"Hehe, trash will always be trash. Mingyue was merely careless just now. This time, he is certainly dead!"
At this moment, every gaze above and below the heavens was fixed on Ye Ming, wanting to see how he would respond to Liu Mingyue's strike.
"Kill me? Your little bit of strength isn't enough!"
His voice was calm. His black robe fluttered in the wind as he stood in the heavens. Looking at the sword Liu Mingyue had slashed out, Ye Ming's gaze remained indifferent as he extended two fingers, white as jade.
The many cultivators who saw this did not understand.
"Has this Imperial Son been scared stupid? What is he trying to do?"
"Uh... he isn't planning to catch Saintess Mingyue's sword bare-handed, is he???"
"Hehe, I have never seen anyone this arrogant. Who does he think he is, the Primordial Ancient Sacred Body? Does he think his flesh is unmatched?"
Some mocked him with disdainful gazes. Among all the great physiques of the world, only the Primordial Ancient Sacred Body and the Heavenly Hegemon Body among the Ten Supreme Physiques possessed the strongest fleshly bodies, capable of catching Dao weapons bare-handed.
In the eyes of countless cultivators, Ye Ming did not possess such a physique.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The sword radiance surged like a vast river, tearing through the void. Space shook violently, as though it could collapse at any moment. Its sharpness sent chills through one's heart. Even some of the top prodigies present believed it would be difficult for them to withstand Liu Mingyue's sword.
Yet at this moment, Ye Ming, the trash in their eyes, actually dared to catch it bare-handed.
"Hehe, since you are seeking death, then I shall send you on your way!"
Liu Mingyue's beautiful eyes were icy. She seemed already to see the fate of Ye Ming, the man who had caused the destruction of her entire Liu Family, his head severed from his body.
The sword descended.
Clang!
The sound of metal colliding rang out. Light scattered in every direction, spiritual energy surged wildly, and the void shook violently.
They were a pair of utterly ordinary fingers, yet Liu Mingyue's strongest sword strike was now firmly clamped between Ye Ming's two fingers. This was a Saint Weapon!!!
"Gasp!!!"
"Am I seeing this right!!!"
"Could my eyes be playing tricks on me!!!"
One incomparably shocked cry after another rang out. Above and below the heavens, countless cultivators felt their hairs stand on end, terror flooding their hearts. Their expressions went blank as they froze where they stood, staring at the scene as everything fell into utter silence...
