The vast fluctuations directly swept across the entire continent of Myriad Saints City, their intensity unknown yet undeniably astonishing.
"What happened?"
Everyone was startled.
In the sky above Myriad Saints City, vast expanses of divine light surged and roared, flooding the entire firmament in a mighty torrent.
Accompanied by dazzling flames that incinerated everything, a thunderous explosion erupted violently, shattering heaven and earth, shaking the entire ancient city on the continent, creating terrifyingly immense fluctuations of unknown magnitude.
If Myriad Saints City lacked the protective barrier of its city-guarding light curtain, the cultivators of various races within would have long been slain.
Yet even so, it produced quite dreadful fluctuations.
From the starry sky, a vast host of figures surged forth, densely arrayed across the heavens. Their leader was none other than an ancient Great Sage, wielding an Immortal Ancient Weapon as he launched a fierce assault on the massive Myriad Saints City.
Boom—
The most terrifying fluctuations erupted abruptly, truly horrifying. That ancient Great Sage, grasping the Immortal Ancient Weapon, struck Myriad Saints City again and again, each blow creating waves of terrifying destructive power. Within, bursts of annihilative fluctuations continuously erupted, an earth-shattering spectacle in every sense.
"Seeking death!"
From within Myriad Saints City, a powerful ancient Great Sage also flew out, soaring skyward. He too raised an Immortal Ancient Weapon and struck out, the two colliding and indeed creating immense fluctuations.
"Moon-Worship Tower Master, what is the meaning of this? How dare you attack my Myriad Saints City!"
The Great Sage who flew out from Myriad Saints City spoke, his voice icy. Naturally, Myriad Saints City was not lacking in numerous powerful experts either. One formidable figure after another continuously flew out, crisscrossing the sky, converging into a great army.
"Myriad Saints Heavenly King, this seat does not know whether you are truly ignorant or feigning ignorance. Your Myriad Saints City frequently abducts the young prodigies from various Ancient Universes heading to the Ultimate Ancient Path. Can all of this be false? Must we truly invite those venerable seniors from the Ultimate Ancient Path to come forth?" The Moon-Worship Tower Master snorted coldly. He was the guardian Great Power of the first checkpoint on the Ultimate Ancient Path. However, in recent times, he had often received news that the Strongest Prodigies from various Ancient Universes heading to the Ultimate Ancient Path had mysteriously vanished.
Although these Strongest Prodigies were all powerful, at the very least Saint Lords, and not lacking in Heavenly Kings, those who acted were even stronger, with ancient Great Sages involved. That was an entirely different matter.
"This is bad! The Moon-Worship Tower Master has personally come from the first checkpoint of the Ultimate Ancient Path to demand accountability!"
The ancient Great Sage stationed in the Soul-Restraining Hall changed expression. That represented an ancient Great Sage of the Ultimate Ancient Path. Even a power as formidable as the Soul-Restraining Hall had to be wary. Immediately, they mobilized everyone from the entire Soul-Restraining Hall to evacuate this region.
"Great Elder, someone is attacking. Please leave quickly. We can conduct the transaction another day," a Soul-Restraining Envoy spoke, anxiety in his voice.
However, that old monster said, "Hand over this youngster's flesh and blood to this old man right now. There's no need for the ritual within the Soul-Restraining Hall. This old man will perform it after returning to my clan."
"Good!" Since it had come to this, the Soul-Restraining Envoy naturally would not stop him and was about to act to suppress Ye Chen, applying a comprehensive restraint.
Whoosh—
Yet Ye Chen's gaze blazed brilliantly, transforming into two heavenly swords that directly pierced into the minds of the Soul-Restraining Hall experts. Without even a grunt, their Primordial Spirits shattered and perished.
The old monster by his side paled in terror, fully able to sense that terrifying divine soul aura. This was no Saint Realm peak at all, but clearly more frightening than even an old-hand Heavenly King like himself.
The old monster hastily turned to flee, but no matter how fast he was, he could not match Ye Chen. With a whoosh, Ye Chen appeared before the old monster. Under the old monster's nearly horrified gaze, the five restraining Soul-Devouring Divine Chains seemed incredibly weak, directly shattering apart.
And the divine chains formed from the soul power within the Soul-Forbidden Prison were the same.
Everything seemed effortless, which further horrified the old monster.
Boom—
At the critical moment, the old monster had no choice but to strike. Although aged and physically declining, having reached this level, he was still sufficiently terrifying. A seemingly light palm strike contained supreme Dao principles, within which vast stretches of void instantly annihilated, slapping toward Ye Chen.
It could be said this was a terrifying old-hand Heavenly King. An ordinary Heavenly King encountering him would absolutely find it difficult to match him, facing certain death if not demise.
This sight made the other imprisoned experts within the Soul-Forbidden Prison shake their heads. Although they also sensed Ye Chen's power, compared to such a terrifying old monster, he undoubtedly faced only a path to death.
However, they did not understand Ye Chen. This was the most monstrous young generation's supreme, a peerless figure capable of suppressing ancient Great Sages. He similarly slapped out a palm.
Pfft—
The two raised hands collided. Everything seemed ordinary and unremarkable, even silent, as if two simple mortals were clashing.
The two passed by each other, everything calm and natural.
Yet Ye Chen's figure remained unmoving, unshakable like a mountain. In contrast, the old monster turned his head back, looking at Ye Chen in shock: "You, you are—"
Pfft—
Before he could finish his sentence, the old monster suddenly cracked all over his body, then exploded, transforming into a mist of mournfully brilliant blood that scattered, his form and spirit extinguished, completely vanishing.
This eerie scene left everyone dumbfounded. Even though those imprisoned in the Soul-Forbidden Prison were true experts, including top young elites from various Ancient Universes and two genuine Strongest Prodigies, witnessing this evoked an inexplicable chill rising from their hearts.
Because it was all too eerie. A formidable old monster, after just one exchange, had silently vanished like this, making one's spine run cold, looking at this younger generation figure in horror.
Too powerful.
Even the other two younger generation figures felt the same. This mysterious Strongest Prodigy was too terrifying, frightening beyond imagination.
"A young generation's supreme!?"
The two Strongest Prodigies couldn't help but swallow hard. This was definitely a young generation's supreme, and one whose strength was unfathomably powerful, indescribably dreadful.
Simultaneously, Ye Chen also displayed his most astonishing aura. From the crown of his head surged a vast expanse of chaotic light, which then transformed into ten thousand layers of sword radiance. Each layer was entwined with chaotic sword energy, shooting forth with whooshing sounds, radiating in all directions.
Boom! Boom! Boom!—
Visible to the naked eye, these extraordinary Soul-Forbidden Prisons, which numerous experts had struggled in vain to break open, now under the ten thousand layers of chaotic sword radiance, everything seemed as fragile as dried twigs, directly torn asunder.
