[Gao Zong abruptly turned to look at the sky, but the final trace of the silver moon’s light was completely swallowed by darkness.]

[At this moment, the world fell into absolute silence.]

[However, before Gao Zong could act, twelve beams of light suddenly ignited. They circled around him, perfectly encircling him in their midst.]

[Immediately afterward, the light flared brilliantly, revealing their true forms.]

[Twelve ancient deities in long robes stood there. Their faces could not be seen—only the radiance of their eyes.]

[A terrifying pressure swept down like the end of the world, causing even Gao Zong to furrow his brow.]

[The land beneath his feet cracked piece by piece, nearly collapsing.]

"Kneel!"

[With a thunderous shout, the figures of the twelve deities expanded once more, becoming immeasurably towering.]

"A very fine illusion. To be able to steal images from my own mind out of thin air—truly unexpected. However, if this is all you have, it will not be enough to harm me!"

[Gao Zong sneered, raised his hand, and clenched the void. The surrounding scene shattered instantly.]

[The twelve deities, the darkness, the light—all vanished without a trace.]

[Gao Zong opened his eyes. He was still standing where he had been all along, not having moved in the slightest.]

[A self-satisfied smile appeared on his face.]

[But in the very next second, that smile froze completely.]

[Because Ye Yu, who had been a hundred meters away, was now directly in front of him.]

[The two were separated by less than half a meter.]

[And Ye Yu was already driving a punch toward him!]

[A lion never cares about the charge of an ant.]

[But what infuriated him was this—how dared the ant charge at him? Where did it find the courage?]

[As an ant, should it not kneel obediently and await death?]

[Why insist on such meaningless resistance?]

[Gao Zong raised a finger. Divine power surged around him.]

[In the next instant, heaven and earth fell silent, [N O V E L I G H T] and the divine power within his body completely dissipated.]

[Gao Zong was shocked to discover that his body had turned gray.]

[In that moment, it was as though he was no longer the foremost figure of the God Realm, but merely an ordinary mortal.]

[An immense force struck him!]

[Gao Zong was sent flying backward dozens of meters in an instant.]

[But at that very moment, the grayness on his body completely faded, and his lost divine power returned!]

[Everything had happened in the span of a lightning flash!]

[Had it not been for the painfully real sensation coming from his chest, Gao Zong might have believed that what had just occurred was another illusion.]

[And it was not unreasonable for him to think so.]

[After all, sealing the divine power of a God Sovereign—even for a single instant—sounded utterly absurd.]

[Even a single instant was enough to accomplish far too many things.]

[For example—the punch Ye Yu had just thrown!]

[Drip.]

[A drop of golden blood fell to the ground.]

[Gao Zong stared downward in disbelief.]

[He had actually been injured by a Gold God Realm cultivator?]

"Hahahaha!"

[Gao Zong suddenly burst into laughter.]

[The increasingly maniacal laughter twisted the space of the secret realm even further.]

"Boy, you are indeed different from the other ghost gods. I was careless. From this moment on, I will regard you as a true opponent."

[After speaking, Gao Zong grasped the void with his right hand. A mass of water mist gathered and formed the Overlord Sea Blade!]

[He held the blade horizontally before him and barked softly into the void.]

"Shatter Heaven and Earth!"

[In an instant, endless blade radiance erupted, surging toward Ye Yu with the force of thunder.]

[The surrounding space was completely torn apart by the blade light.]

[Ye Yu was locked in place by an overwhelmingly powerful vital aura. There was nowhere to dodge.]

[Before the blade light reached him, he subconsciously turned his head for a glance.]

[He instantly saw Zhu Xincheng not far away.]

[Ye Yu lost his composure.]

[From the moment Gao Zong revealed killing intent, Ye Yu had known that he might very well not leave alive this time.]

[Whether deceiving Gao Zong with words to extract his dream, or unleashing Fear Hell and the all-out punch of All Beings Equal—]

[All of it had merely been a final counterattack before death.]

[If he could not escape, so be it. But if Zhu Xincheng escaped, then they would at least come out ahead.]

[He had even warned her in advance for that very reason.]

[But why did she not run?]

[In that instant when All Beings Equal activated, she had a perfect chance to leave!]

[Ye Yu glared at Zhu Xincheng in exasperation, but her eyes were filled only with calm acceptance.]

[Just as he was about to say something, the blade light arrived.]

[Before the Overlord Sea Blade, even his powerful physique was like tofu—shattering at the slightest touch.]

The scene grew blurred and dark, then shattered completely.

Ye Yu awoke within the Ye Residence of Newbuilt City.

Seeing the peaceful surroundings, his tightly wound nerves finally began to relax.

The oppressive pressure of a God Sovereign Realm was truly terrifying.

So terrifying that resistance felt utterly impossible.

Most importantly, Gao Zong’s final strike had not even used a divine technique. With mere blade momentum, he had effortlessly torn apart the surrounding space.

Such horrifying power was enough to make one’s scalp go numb.

Of course, what angered him most was Zhu Xincheng.

That woman was infuriating!

He had clearly shown her the path, yet she stubbornly refused to take it. What on earth was she thinking?

In the next second, the system’s voice rang out abruptly.

[This dream has ended!]

[Ghost Age: 66 years.]

[God Age: 3 years.]

[Dream Evaluation: Perfect-]

[Randomly obtained two dream rewards!]

[1. Late Great God Realm cultivation!]

[2. Zhu Xincheng’s infant swaddling cloth.]

[When the dream evaluation reaches Excellent+ or above, two items are randomly manifested.]

[1. Divine Flame!]

[2. Eight Kings Blood Jade.]

A surge of divine power flooded through his entire body.

After hearing the system’s rewards, Ye Yu was almost doubtful of himself.

What was this? Why was it suddenly so generous?

Had it not always advanced him one minor realm at a time before?

Why had it allowed him to leap across an entire major realm this time?

System bro, did you finally grow a conscience?

Maybe yes... maybe not.

After all, if it had, what kind of decent system would hand out someone’s infant swaddling cloth as a reward?

Completely indecent!

Ye Yu stared at the swaddling cloth in his left hand, his expression extremely strange.

As for the manifested Eight Kings Blood Jade, that was truly an excellent item.

Looking down at the Eight Kings Blood Jade in his right palm, Ye Yu could not help but smile.

Though cracks still remained, in the real world that old fellow Ge was still alive.

If he asked him to repair it, it would surely not be a problem.

What? He refused?

Heh. Then he would simply help him fulfill a dream again.
