Breaking Through the Supreme Profound Immortal Realm

Right now, Ryan Ling’s heart was pounding so hard it might explode. At the worst possible moment, Lady Miranda—the City Lord—woke up, and not just a little: she snapped wide awake, eyes blazing like she was ready to murder him on the spot. A torrent of Profound Immortal power slammed into Ryan, shaking the whole room to its core. The pressure was so intense it was just a hair short of Golden Immortal level—Ryan felt like he was about to puke blood from the sheer force!

But the real crisis was just getting started. The instant Lady Miranda blasted Ryan with her power, every expert in the City Lord’s Mansion was instantly alerted—no surprise, her bedroom is basically the core of the core defenses. Any slip-up here would be a city-shaking disaster. So, the moment Lady Miranda made her move, all the other top dogs jumped in too—and every single one of them was a Profound Immortal. At least a dozen Profound Immortals unleashed a wild barrage on Ryan, going absolutely berserk. They obviously took him for some supreme master—after all, sneaking into Lady Miranda’s bedroom and hiding out this long without being caught? Only a top-tier freak could pull that off. And now that Lady Miranda herself was personally attacking, the other Profound Immortals couldn’t just sit back. They’d already messed up, so now they were going all-out to make up for it!

At this point, Ryan was taking the worst beating of his life. In a split second, he felt like his entire body was about to explode—even though he’d already hit Divine Immortal great-perfection, just one step away from Profound Immortal. But right at this crucial bottleneck, he was totally doomed. There was just no way to withstand this many heavy hitters blasting him all at once!

"I’m screwed! Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory!" Ryan couldn’t help but curse his luck. Everything had been going so smoothly—he was just one step away from success. And then, bam, he missed that last step and now all his hard work was down the drain!

Ryan felt totally powerless to fight back. And this was happening at the absolute worst time—he was right in the middle of charging toward Profound Immortal, the most critical moment ever. If anything went wrong now, it’d be game over for good. And he was getting hit by a dozen Profound Immortals at once, so you can imagine the result. To make things worse, every killing mechanism in Lady Miranda’s bedroom activated—these were top-tier death traps, and if you set them off, it was the end of the world. And Ryan was smack in the middle of ground zero. No way was he getting out of this one!

Right now, the few wisps of Profound Immortal qi Ryan had just managed to gather were totally vaporized. And not just that—his Divine Immortal qi was fading too. It felt worse than being flayed alive. With so many top experts attacking, Ryan had zero way to fight back. Even Primeval Heavenwood inside him went dim—normally it connects to the Immortal World, but the Demonic World is light-years away, and the two realms are mortal enemies. No matter what he tried, Primeval Heavenwood was basically dead wood here, unable to absorb even a trace of Immortal Qi!

At this point, Ryan’s only hope was that severed finger—the Immortal-World Finger Fragment. Maybe it was his one shot at survival. Only problem: he had no clue how to activate its power. The finger’s energy had always entered him on its own; Ryan hadn’t done anything, not even a stray thought!

"Damn you! You’re still breathing? I’m gonna grind you into dust!" Lady Miranda shrieked, totally losing it. She was beyond furious—especially after realizing Ryan must’ve seen her bathing earlier. No way she wasn’t out for blood.

As she screamed, wave after wave of Profound Immortal power crashed down on Ryan. The other experts didn’t hesitate either—if they didn’t go all-out now, when would they? Everyone was blasting away so hard they were about to blow the whole supposedly indestructible bedroom to pieces!

Ryan felt like this was truly the end—his whole body was numb, inside and out he was falling apart, and he was about to lose consciousness. He could sense his time was up.

He let out a bitter sigh and couldn’t help but close his eyes. He had no strength left to fight back—he could only wait for death in agony.

But right at that critical moment, everything changed in a flash. The Immortal-World Finger Fragment next to Ryan suddenly moved, making his heart skip a beat. That finger was his last hope—if it could do anything at all, maybe he could flip this nightmare ending!

Just as Ryan stared at the finger, it suddenly shot up and traced a circle around him. The ring looked ordinary, but its defensive power was insane—absolutely Immortal-World grade, totally indestructible. With that shield up, Ryan could finally breathe again—it was like being pulled out of the water right before drowning. That feeling of surviving disaster? Unforgettable.

"How is he still moving? And why is he getting stronger?" Lady Miranda kept a close eye on Ryan, totally baffled. Logically, with all the heavy hits, Ryan should’ve been toast. But not only was he alive, his life force was actually getting stronger—stuff like this just doesn’t happen!

"Crank it up! Blast him to death! I want his head—got it?" Lady Miranda was raging, totally out of her mind. She was dead set on killing Ryan, no mercy, no escape!

The people around didn’t hesitate either—Profound Immortal power went absolutely wild. Before, some of them were holding back because Ryan was in Lady Miranda’s bedroom—they couldn’t just blow up her place. But now? Ryan was like an unkillable cockroach, so everyone went all-in. No holding back now!

But even with everyone going all-out, they still couldn’t break his shield. The finger’s power was basically infinite—Ryan felt like it could rival a top Golden Immortal. That’s how strong it was.

With the finger’s protection, Ryan felt a wild rush of energy slamming into him—this was the perfect chance. No matter how crazy things got outside, nothing could touch him now. He took a deep breath, and the torrent of power started pouring into his body. Ryan began to transform—this was totally unprecedented. The Profound Immortal qi he’d been dreaming of finally erupted from his crown, pure and majestic. Even he could hardly believe it!

"Break through!" Ryan roared, holding nothing back. All the frustration from this whole ordeal burst out in one shout. With his cry, endless Profound Immortal qi exploded out, completely enveloping him. Ryan knew exactly what this meant—his Profound Immortal era had officially begun. He’d finally made it!

But reaching early-stage Profound Immortal was just the beginning—Ryan’s power kept skyrocketing. The finger’s inner energy was like a bottomless treasure vault, impossible to exhaust. In no time, Ryan’s cultivation rocketed straight from early-stage Profound Immortal to mid-stage Profound Immortal…
