Limitless Evolution: I Have Infinite Potential.

Swish!

A powerful figure descended from the sky, radiating dazzling brilliance, like a golden sun illuminating the world. His presence carried an aura of sacred inviolability, overwhelming all living beings beneath him.

In an instant, cultivators across the Eastern Domain felt their hearts tremble, an instinctive urge to bow in submission surging within them.

This aura completely overshadowed that of the Xue Family Ancestor!

"May I ask which esteemed guest has arrived unannounced?" The Xue Family Ancestor's expression turned wary, his emotions difficult to describe.

He had only just ascended to the Virtual Immortal realm and had been looking forward to basking in the reverence of the masses during this feast. But now, a powerhouse even stronger had appeared, instantly stealing his spotlight.

What made it worse was that although this person's cultivation was technically on par with his — both newly entering the Tribulation Stage — the difference in aura was like comparing a crude imitation to the genuine article.

High above, the enormous golden sun drifted closer, almost resembling a second sun in the heavens. Its intense radiance left many cultivators below parched and squinting, their throats dry.

"Senior, please withdraw your divine might!"

Voices of pleading rang out from all directions.

The light felt as though it was burning their very souls, an oppressive force bearing down upon them.

Its brilliance wasn't just blinding — it carried a mystical interference that seemed to target cultivators specifically, disrupting their spiritual defenses.

"Damn it, which lunatic is trying to show off now?" Ye Junlin cursed, pulling out a pair of special sunglasses and slipping them on, barely managing to see the figure amidst the overwhelming golden glow.

It was a middle-aged man dressed in resplendent golden robes, his long, tightly braided golden hair cascading down his chest and back. An oppressive, destructive aura surrounded him.

"I come from Yuhua Sect. My title is Grand Sun."

His solemn, majestic voice resounded through the skies, like a deity descending from the ninth heaven to declare his will.

At those words, many people's expressions changed dramatically.

"I've heard of him, he's hailed as the strongest Venerable of the Yuhua Sect, and mentor to their Saint Son!"

"Grand Sun Venerable? No, now he should be called Giant Sun Virtual Immortal!"

"With him showing up personally, it's clear he came to settle accounts with Ye Junlin. That kid's in real trouble now."

The Xue Family Ancestor's heart stirred with realization, and a sinister grin crept onto his face.

Ye Junlin, this fool, had brought disaster upon himself. At this rate, the Xue Family wouldn't even need to lift a hand — this man from Yuhua Sect would finish him off, and any consequences would fall squarely on them.

Smothering his displeasure, the Xue Family Ancestor cupped his hands respectfully and smiled. "Congratulations on breaking through to the Tribulation Stage. It's an honor to meet a fellow Virtual Immortal."

"I'm here for Ye Junlin. I heard he's attending your Xue Family feast."

The Giant Sun Virtual Immortal's voice was ice-cold, clearly not regarding the Xue Ancestor as his equal. Though both had entered the Tribulation Stage, their respective might was as different as earth and heaven.

"Yes, that person is indeed here. Please, feel free to handle your own affairs."

The Ancestor could only suppress his frustration, knowing this was not someone he could afford to provoke.

The guests exchanged glances, immediately realizing that someone among them must have tipped off the Yuhua Sect.

Up above, Ye Junlin remained completely unfazed. Adjusting his sunglasses, he casually raised a middle finger toward the golden figure and taunted, "I'm right here. What do you want?"

The surrounding guests went pale, looking at him as though he were insane.

With a whoosh, the once crowded scene scattered like frightened birds, everyone scrambling to distance themselves as if Ye Junlin were a plague.

Even Li Wujie, still lying bloodied on the ground, felt a chill run down his spine and considered dragging himself farther away.

He had always thought himself bold, but compared to this madman, he wasn't even worth mentioning.

"It's over…" Hong Qianye's expression stiffened as he muttered to himself.

With the Xue Family Ancestor already struggling, now an even mightier figure had appeared. There was no way this situation would end well.

Boom!

A terrifying beam of light split the sky.

The Giant Sun Virtual Immortal's face twisted with fury, his golden hair whipping wildly, his eyes blazing like twin scorching suns.

"Ye! Jun! Lin!"

His roar shook the heavens, causing the entire floating island chain to tremble. Many men, women, and children clutched their heads in agony, blood trickling from their ears, writhing on the ground.

Yet Ye Junlin remained entirely unimpressed. He dug at his ear and impatiently shouted back, "Why are you howling like a mutt? I asked, what're you barking for?"

"You little bastard, you're dead!"

Enraged beyond measure, the Giant Sun Virtual Immortal raised his hand, summoning a radiant orb of golden energy before hurling it without hesitation.

Swish!

The golden energy ball rapidly expanded as it streaked through the sky, radiating a blinding brilliance and inscribed with countless ancient runes. It descended upon Ye Junlin like a falling sun, its destructive pressure enveloping a hundred-mile radius.

"Not good!" Hong Qianye's face changed. The energy ball's oppressive aura sent chills through him, and he found himself unable to move, as though the very space around him had been sealed.

This was the might of a Virtual Immortal!

"My friend, you…"

The Xue Family Ancestor's face twitched. He knew if that golden energy ball landed, his Xue Family residence might be reduced to rubble. But at this point, he could only watch and let this storm play out.

Rumble!

As the giant golden orb plummeted, Ye Junlin felt a surge of excitement.

[Ding, detected that the host is facing an attack from an early-stage Tribulation enemy. Passive skill activated: the stronger the opponent, the faster you grow. Gained mid-Tribulation cultivation!]

A torrent of powerful spiritual energy erupted from Ye Junlin's body, like a dormant volcano awakening.

His skin shone like flawless white jade, his eyes sparkling with divine light that seemed to reflect the stars themselves. His long silver hair cascaded behind him like a shimmering river of light.

In that moment, the aura radiating from this black-robed youth transcended the ordinary.

"You… you're a Virtual Immortal too?!"

Sensing this astonishing power, Hong Qianye's mind reeled, his voice cracking with disbelief.

"Child's play."

Ye Junlin smirked coldly, casually raising a hand and flicking his finger.

Boom!

An invisible, unstoppable force erupted forth, instantly sending the massive golden energy ball flying as though it were a toy marble.

"What?!"

The Giant Sun Virtual Immortal's eyes bulged, his face a mask of shock.

Rumble…

The golden energy ball exploded in midair, a sea of blinding light engulfing the heavens, while waves of destructive force rippled outward.

Everyone watching was dumbfounded, their bodies frozen in place, jaws hanging open, unable to believe what they had just witnessed.
