"Light King!?"
Upon hearing this name, everyone couldn't help but frown, because they simply didn't recognize this so-called Light King.
However, they also saw that the Light King's body was surrounded by a vast, supreme, and brilliant Holy Light, incredibly dazzling, a thousand times more eye-catching than the sun, and also extremely powerful. Calling him the Light King was indeed well-deserved.
It could be confirmed that this Light King was at the very least a Strongest Prodigy, quite formidable.
"Is it Holy Light, or Primordial Holy Light?" Among them, the Strongest Prodigies of the alien races were particularly sensitive, as they leaned towards sinister and evil Daos, each enveloped in dark light, naturally repelling Holy Light, and thus they found it extremely repulsive.
When he heard the name Light King, Ye Chen couldn't help but be slightly startled. Then, he suddenly thought of something, his gaze instantly turning profound, with Dao runes flickering and intertwining within. He pierced through the surging Holy Light and immediately saw the true face of the Light King.
The man inside wore snow-white robes, yet his skin was as dark as charcoal, with a peculiar short haircut and a lecherous look in his eyes. He was so familiar that even Ye Chen, with his extraordinary mental state, was somewhat stunned. He blurted out: "Will!?"
That's right, this Light King who suddenly appeared was Will. Ye Chen was utterly dumbfounded. He never expected this guy to have embarked on the Ultimate Ancient Path and appear before him now. It couldn't be more coincidental.
The Light King's body was surrounded by boundless Holy Light, but in an instant, most of it faded, revealing his original form, which was so flamboyant and peculiar. He grinned at Ye Chen: "That's right, I am Will, the one everyone loves, the one all beauties want to take to bed. Dear comrade Little Yueyue, truly, we meet everywhere in life. I, the Light King, came to the Ultimate Ancient Path to pick up girls and never thought I'd run into you. I really don't know when you hit the road."
"Not long ago, I heard someone shouting and knew you were in trouble, so I came over. Especially appearing grandly at the last moment to rescue you, aren't you thrilled? Don't you think I'm very handsome and eye-catching?"
Ye Chen was originally somewhat moved knowing that Will had stepped forward to save him, but upon hearing his narcissistic introduction and weird way of addressing him, several black lines immediately appeared on his forehead—
Comrade Little Yueyue?
Little your sister's comrade!
Ye Chen really wanted to beat him up, but he frowned and said, "When did you embark on the Ultimate Ancient Path?"
Will grinned: "Back then, I set out together with Great Demon God, Yuan Yao Divine King, and those guys. All those Emperor's Sons also embarked on the Ultimate Ancient Path one by one. Overall, basically all the young generation's supremes from the entire Ancient Universe have taken to the road except you. Some have already gone to more distant places on the Ancient Path, some are still behind, competing with young supremes from other Ancient Universes, fighting for Dao secret treasures in the fourth checkpoint, which has slowed them down a bit, but they'll be here soon."
Ye Chen knitted his brows: "Those people are all young generation's supremes with absolute strength to compete. But you, a guy who only knows how to chase girls and cause trouble, what are you doing on the Ultimate Ancient Path? Aren't you afraid of death?"
In his impression, Will's cultivation was indeed decent, but those who could set foot on the Ultimate Ancient Path were all the Strongest Prodigies from various Ancient Universes. If not young supremes, they were at least True King-level geniuses. It was extremely dangerous. This guy actually dared to come up here. Was he really not afraid of death?
"I—" Will was about to speak but was immediately cut off by Ye Chen: "Alright, take this chance and leave quickly. I don't need your protection."
Ye Chen was grateful in his heart for Will stepping forward, but he didn't want Will to die in vain because it was too dangerous. So many Strongest Prodigies were standing here. Who could contend with them?
He himself was facing a life-and-death situation, and had even prepared for the possibility of not completely succeeding in converting his divine power, with a backup plan to retreat safely. But he couldn't guarantee Will's safety.
"It's fine, these guys can't kill me." Will patted his chest, his dark face filled with confidence: "After all, a protagonist like me always has an invincible halo. Could these small fries kill me? What a joke. Killing them is as easy as taking off a woman's clothes for me."
Sure enough, he couldn't go three sentences without revealing his true nature, his words immediately turning vulgar. Ye Chen could only shake his head helplessly. Meanwhile, all those Strongest Prodigies had black lines on their foreheads. This Light King actually looked down on them like this, disregarding them completely. He was really asking for death.
"Kill him too. What Light King, blabbering nonsense, so annoying!"
Purple Nine King sneered coldly, the first to strike. The other Strongest Prodigies also attacked directly, not caring who Will was, unleashing a massacre. Waves of attacks rained down.
"Will, get out of here! Don't get trapped in danger!" Even Ye Chen's expression changed. His Supreme Dao Body stood before him, holding the Primordial Battle Body and the Sun God Spear, reviving them to block the attacks, and preparing to send Will away from this dangerous place.
"Little Yueyue, you're underestimating me too much. Don't think I really only know how to chase girls and get into bed."
Will smiled at Ye Chen, but then his expression suddenly turned serious. His entire body began to radiate brilliant Holy Light, and he uttered special words—
"The divine says, let everything disperse."
Buzz—
Suddenly, a special wave of law power spread out like lightning.
Swish—
In the blink of an eye, the terrifying attacks of the numerous Strongest Prodigies all suddenly vanished, as if they had never appeared. Everything seemed so calm and effortless.
"What? Where are our attacks?"
This scene deeply shocked all the Strongest Prodigies because it was too unbelievable. With the Light King's words, the attacks of all the heroes just disappeared. It was simply Words Become Law, unbelievable!
Even Ye Chen showed a hint of surprise. Although he had always known that Will mastered the Divine Language law, a special divine ability akin to Words Become Law, he never expected it could make the attacks of over a dozen Strongest Prodigies vanish in an instant.
Cough—
Suddenly, Will's body trembled, and a trickle of bright red blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. His complexion also paled slightly.
Although the Divine Language law was extraordinary, basically capable of truly achieving Words Become Law, this was after all the combined attack of numerous Strongest Prodigies. Even someone as powerful as him suffered a certain backlash.
Will wiped the blood from his mouth and muttered, "The joke went too far. These guys are really strong, actually making me suffer backlash."
Even so, all the Strongest Prodigies changed their expressions, becoming wary because it was too extraordinary. Someone spoke up: "What a bizarre law power. It's the legendary Divine Language law. I never expected this person to have mastered it. Attack quickly, finish him off too. We can't let him stay."
Naturally, no further urging was needed. The other Strongest Prodigies were also quite wary and attacked Will together.
Ye Chen rushed over and threw the Sun God Spear to Will, joining the fight, resisting together.
"Will, stay behind me. I'll take the main offensive, you assist." Ye Chen spoke, brandishing the Primordial Battle Body and beginning its true revival. A terrifying Dao pressure was released, surging golden light appeared, like a golden ocean, sweeping in all directions, crashing forward.
But he didn't revive it to its extreme, only a small part, because the Fifth Trial Continent had special law power descending, restricting the manifestation of power beyond the Heavenly King level.
Because the power of ancient great sages could easily disrupt the balance of the Fifth Trial Continent. That's why Ye Chen had never revived the Human Emperor Tower, the Primordial Battle Body, and other Supreme Emperor Weapons. Otherwise, how could he allow these Strongest Prodigies to disturb his divine power conversion?
Boom—
Will refused to fall behind. Although usually he was all laughs and jokes, without a proper shape, at this critical moment, he became very serious. His entire body glowed with radiant light, boundless Holy Light surging and shining, as if a true Son of God had descended.
He also began to revive the Sun God Spear to the Heavenly King level, tearing through heaven and earth, joining Ye Chen in resisting over a dozen Strongest Prodigies.
"Kill!"
Ye Chen's Supreme Dao Body took the main offensive, his black hair wildly dancing. He alone blocked the vast majority of attacks, fighting solo against seven Strongest Prodigies, battling until heaven and earth shattered.
Will's strength was unexpectedly powerful. Ye Chen even saw ten heavens momentarily appear, immediately shocking him as he looked at Will. When did this guy also achieve the Tenth Heaven?
More importantly, Light King Will mastered the most special Divine Language law. Often, with a single utterance of "the divine says," everything became reality, blocking the vast majority of attacks, making the numerous Strongest Prodigies quite wary.
Because this Divine Language law was too special, too extraordinary—Words Become Law.
However, even as a young generation's supreme, Will couldn't use it frequently. It had great limitations, especially when facing over a dozen Strongest Prodigies. He would suffer backlash, coughing blood several times, causing significant damage to himself.
"Kill, attack together, kill both of them!" The Strongest Prodigy of the Golden-Eyed Toad roared, taking the initiative to attack, joining with the numerous Strongest Prodigies to charge over. The killing intent soared to the heavens, terrifying and boundless, shattering all obstacles.
"Who kills whom remains to be seen." Ye Chen fought until his entire body's golden blood energy boiled over completely. Each strand of hair seemed like a soaring and roaring ancient dragon. Golden light surged, threatening to split the sky, like a golden, dazzling ocean boiling and exploding.
He swung the Primordial Battle Body halberd in attack. The four holy spirit phantoms appeared, the Five Elements Metal Realm expanded behind him, countless golden Dao soldiers attacked, and the Immortal-Slaying Style erupted...
With just one Supreme Dao Body, he fought with a hatred that could drive heaven mad, shattering who knew how many tens of thousands of miles, forcing all the Strongest Prodigies of the heavens to retreat.
Will was also extremely powerful. Holding the Sun God Spear, he seemed like a different person, becoming exceptionally valiant. The divine spear was like a heavenly sun, accompanied by endless Primordial Holy Light. He was even stronger than those Strongest Prodigies, a true Tenth Heaven young generation's supreme.
At this moment, his bronze-colored face carried a special majesty, like the Light Emperor, unleashing one supreme Holy Light technique after another, purifying everything.
Moreover, he occasionally used the Divine Language law, this heaven-defying law divine ability—Words Become Law—to assist, making him almost invincible.
With just him and Ye Chen's Supreme Dao Body cooperating, they actually held off thirteen Strongest Prodigies, allowing Ye Chen's true body to safely convert his divine power.
Even though Ye Chen's Supreme Dao Body was blasted apart alive by the numerous Strongest Prodigies several times, and he also took on killing blows for Will, this scene still made all the Strongest Prodigies' hearts race with fear.
These two were too powerful, especially since both were human young generation's supremes. The threat was too great.
Although Purple Nine King injured Ye Chen, making him spit out a mouthful of golden blood, he was also struck on the chest by the Primordial Battle Body and forced back, coughing blood, unable to truly approach Ye Chen's true body.
He grew somewhat anxious. Thirteen Strongest Prodigies attacking actually couldn't stop the human young generation's supreme from converting his divine power. If this got out, it would surely shake the entire Ultimate Ancient Path.
Purple Nine King had no choice but to send a voice transmission to those Strongest Prodigies watching from a distance: "Fellow Daoists, are you really going to keep watching like this? If we let the Battle Saint King successfully convert his divine power, then don't even think about getting the Immortal Death Divine Spring Water on him. Moreover, with his monstrous talent, he will undoubtedly be one of the greatest obstacles on the Ultimate Ancient Path."
The Strongest Prodigies in the distant sky were moved. After all, as Purple Nine King said, the human young generation's supreme was too terrifying. If he continued, he would undoubtedly be among the most powerful enemies on the entire Ultimate Ancient Path. They couldn't let him grow unchecked.
They were enveloped in pillars of divine light, like deities. Some began to step forward, putting great pressure on Ye Chen's side.
If they joined the battle now, the crisis would undoubtedly deepen.
While resisting the numerous Strongest Prodigies, Ye Chen also faced those who hadn't yet attacked. His aura surged terrifyingly, his fighting spirit peerless. He spoke up: "Everyone, if you can help us, I am willing to offer some Immortal Death Divine Spring Water as payment. How about it?"
Even so, those Strongest Prodigies didn't immediately agree, as they were considering Ye Chen's suggestion and also assessing the current battlefield situation.
Although the two human young generation's supremes were in constant peril, the thirteen Strongest Prodigies, despite being powerful, couldn't break through immediately, making them hesitate.
Perhaps it was also because the human Battle Saint King was too terrifying.
Pfft—
The surging Holy Light was torn apart by someone. A Strongest Prodigy of the Diamond Clan broke through Will's defense and struck out with a Diamond Bracelet, injuring him and making him cough blood.
But Will erupted with divine might, swinging the Sun God Spear to tear through the void and blast him away. However, he also sent a voice transmission: "Qianyue, when exactly will you succeed? We can't hold on much longer."
Ye Chen said: "Still a bit more. Wait a little longer."
His Supreme Dao Body moved freely among the numerous Strongest Prodigies, constantly in peril, but he had relative experience from before. All of this was nothing compared to facing the Tenth Heaven incarnations during the tribulation.
If his true body didn't need to convert divine power, everything would be many times more relaxed and easier.
"Roar—"
"Screech—" ...
Suddenly, terrifying beast roars and bird cries resounded through heaven and earth.
In the distant sky, a large swarm of terrifying Fierce Beasts and Strange Birds actually charged over, densely packed, blotting out the sky. No one knew how many there were; the formation was quite massive.
Among them were not a few king-level Fierce Beasts and Strange Birds, extremely powerful.
"Haha, even the Fierce Beasts and Strange Birds from the great wilderness have been alerted. This time, you're dead for sure!" Gu Xun Wang laughed heartily, coldly staring at Ye Chen and the others!
Only, Ye Chen revealed a faint, eerie smile: "Is that so?"
