Not long ago, alien race Emperors had crossed over from the Mythical Epoch on the River of Time, and earth-shattering changes had also occurred behind the Tenfold Emperor Passes.
It seemed as if alien race Emperors were reviving there, and the alien race army was advancing. According to the news received, several alien race imperial weapons had revived and rushed towards the Emperor's Passes, releasing imperial might, intending to attack the Tenfold Emperor Passes.
This situation made the powerhouses within the Tenfold Emperor Passes extremely tense. It had even once caused the Human Sovereign to send his Human Sovereign's Saint Sword over.
"No need to worry. This is just a boring trick by the alien race, nothing to fear," said the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord.
"A trick?" This statement left everyone present stunned and somewhat confused.
According to the news received, the alien race army held several Supreme imperial weapons, which had even revived, aimed remotely at the Tenth Emperor's Pass. A great battle was about to erupt at any moment. How could it just be a trick?
"Correct, just a simple trick," the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord said calmly, as if nothing in the world could make him change expression. He spoke indifferently, "The alien race simply does not dare to truly attack the Tenfold Emperor Passes because they cannot breach them."
"The Tenth Emperor's Pass was personally built by true Mythical Emperors, and not just one—it was a joint effort by many Emperors. Moreover, not only were the construction materials rare materials from the Chaos Sea, but they also contain the Supreme imperial imprints and Emperor-level formations left by the Emperors. It can be said to be impregnable."
"To breach it, unless true Emperors emerge, and several Emperors would need to join forces to accomplish it."
"If simply reviving a few imperial weapons could conquer it, then over the countless years since the opening of this epoch, the alien race would have long since conquered the Tenfold Emperor Passes. Otherwise, why would they wait until now to act?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen and the others couldn't help but nod, feeling the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord's words were quite reasonable. If the alien race truly had such means, they would have conquered it long ago. Why wait until this era?
One must know that the alien race had coveted this world for a very long time. If they had the opportunity, they would have certainly attacked long ago. Why wait for endless ages?
The most likely reason was that supreme existences within the alien race had deduced that alien race Emperors on the River of Time were about to cross it. Therefore, they chose this moment to act, to obstruct the Human Sovereign from preventing the alien race Emperors from descending from the River of Time.
All of this could be completely deduced.
However, even knowing the reason was not enough. The Human Sovereign needed to demonstrate his power, to display his presence and intimidate the alien race.
Because who knew if the alien race would truly launch an attack?
Regardless, in the previous epoch, the alien race had indeed conquered this universe, later retreating only for certain reasons. This made it impossible not to worry about everything.
Moreover, the alien race universe still possessed true Emperors and Sovereigns, while this universe lacked such Supreme existences, having only one Supreme Human Sovereign infinitely close to the Emperor-Sovereign realm. They had no choice but to be on guard and vigilant.
"Actually, compared to behind the Tenfold Emperor Passes, what is most worthy of vigilance is the Prison of Heaven," the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord said.
"The Prison of Heaven?" Ye Chen was somewhat surprised and doubtful, because he had heard that the reason the Human Sovereign could not come was, first, due to the situation behind the Tenfold Emperor Passes, and second, because of the Prison of Heaven.
But even though he had inherited the memories of the September Great Power and reached the Heavenly King realm, he was ultimately still too young. His two lifetimes of cultivation amounted to less than two hundred years, so his understanding of some secrets within the myriad realms was still quite limited. He asked, "Gate Lord, what exactly is the Prison of Heaven?"
Not only Ye Chen, but everyone else also looked at the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord, clearly also having doubts.
"The Prison of Heaven—this is a prison that imprisons great terrors!" the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord said slowly, his voice carrying a rare gravity.
Ye Chen was shaken. Since it could be referred to as such by the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord, there was no need to think much—such great terrors must be extremely terrifying. Otherwise, the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord would not have such gravity in his tone.
The others were also shaken. What kind of great terrors did the Prison of Heaven imprison?
Without the Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord needing to explain, Xia Zhidi personally began to narrate, as he also had considerable understanding.
The Prison of Heaven, as the name implied—imprisoning heaven, imprisoning heaven—was a prison that confined great horrors.
In truth, the true origin of the Prison of Heaven was not from this epoch, but existed since the Mythical Epoch. Moreover, it was jointly established by many Emperors, even employing the methods of the most ancient Heavenly Emperor, the Time-Space Great Emperor, and other strongest Emperors and Sovereigns. It could be called impregnable.
Therefore, any living beings imprisoned in the Prison of Heaven were necessarily true great horrors, at the very least at the Great Power level.
Throughout the ages, the development and evolution of the myriad realms inevitably involved the descent of some great calamities, such as Primordial Times divine demons, surviving alien race Sovereigns, peerless great terrors from the Chaos Sea, and so on—all were extremely terrifying.
Throughout history, existences that were difficult to truly kill would be suppressed and then imprisoned in the Prison of Heaven, intending to use the power of time to decay and annihilate these existences.
There were even rumors that deep within the Prison of Heaven, there were peerless great terrors from the Mythical Epoch that had not decayed, surviving to this era. Truly, they were boundlessly terrifying.
Usually, these great terrors had their own methods to lie dormant and hibernate, slowing their life processes to the extreme, allowing them to exist for a sufficiently long time, hoping to one day break free from their shackles and roam the world like dragons.
Among them, some great terrors were alien race terrifying existences. Sensing the fluctuations from behind the Tenfold Emperor Passes, they awakened from slumber, wanting to seize the opportunity to struggle, break free, and wreak havoc across the myriad realms.
Other imprisoned great terrors, sensing such fluctuations, would also awaken from hibernation and together impact the Prison of Heaven.
Faced with such a situation, even the Human Sovereign had to be grave, because once the great terrors within the Prison of Heaven were released, it would absolutely be an indescribably great disaster for the entire myriad realms, capable of destroying everything, unstoppable.
Ye Chen's expression turned grave. The Prison of Heaven was actually such a place. If they were truly released, it would absolutely be a heaven-shaking disaster. That scene was even too dreadful to imagine.
It was very likely that the myriad realms would collapse and disintegrate because of it.
No wonder even the Supreme Human Sovereign was so grave. So that was the reason.
Boom—
Right at this moment, a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering terrifying roar came from outside, accompanied by a fearsome howl, startling everyone in the Central Heavenly Palace.
Everyone understood—this came from the Divine Realm. It was probably from the Immortal Heavenly Pass at the end of the Divine Realm.
The Heavenly Gate's Gate Lord, Ye Chen, Xia Zhidi—these three Great Power-level figures were the first to soar into the sky. Everyone behind them followed, breaking into the starry sky, gazing towards the deepest part of the Divine Realm.
They saw endless light erupting there, countless times more blazing than ten heavenly suns, surging throughout the vast Starry Land.
"What is that?" Suddenly, someone exclaimed, opening their eyes wide to look at the Divine Realm, filled with horror.
