However, Ye Chen's comprehension was profound. Even at this stage, he remained fearless, similarly displaying his own myriad insights into Chaos. Moreover, by utilizing the Battle Saint Technique, he manifested supreme offensive divine abilities to counterattack, even secretly learning from his opponent to deepen his own various comprehensions of Chaos.
And who was Ye Chen? He possessed the Chaos insights bestowed by Tai Sheng Huang. However, Tai Sheng Huang's insights involved the Sovereign-Emperor level; Ye Chen was far from reaching that stage, unable to fully comprehend them completely. To date, he had only grasped some superficial aspects, a mere drop in the ocean. Now, he could use this battle for reference, better digesting Tai Sheng Huang's insights into the Chaos Dao.
Unconsciously, Ye Chen's comprehension of Chaos slowly improved once more. Although not obvious, it clearly enhanced his overall strength somewhat, making him even more powerful.
The mysterious Chaos Deity evidently sensed this as well, somewhat astonished. He hadn't expected his opponent's comprehension to be so high, actually able to increase his combat power during the great battle. This truly exceeded his expectations.
"Chaos Transforms into World!"
Amidst the battle, the Chaos Deity roared, the primordial Chaos Qi around his body surging and boiling violently, directly initiating the creation of heaven and earth. A terrifying great world was appearing—a true Origin World, the Origin World of the Sovereign realm, not the inner world of an ancient Great Sage. It was even more extraordinary.
That Chaos World was incomparably vast, even large enough to rival half the grandeur of the Ancient Orchid Great World. It contained a boundless continent, endless oceans, and myriad heavenly stars. Yet, it remained desolate, with no life born within, but it was sufficiently terrifying.
He had actually manifested an Origin World through sheer force—a method only possessed by Ancient Monarchs. Yet the Chaos Deity possessed it. Could his Original Body be an Ancient Monarch?
Ye Chen's expression turned grave, somewhat shocked, yet he did not cease his attacks.
Boom—
Ye Chen had not yet reached that realm, but that did not mean he could not manifest a great world. He brandished the Heaven-Creating Earth-Forging Fist. Now, with his cultivation gradually deepening, and especially his mastery of the Chaos Dao, the Heaven-Creating Earth-Forging Fist grew even more powerful. Wisps of Transcendent Immortal Light emerged, accompanying his fist, and a majestic world also appeared.
It was not as large as the one manifested by the Chaos Deity, but it was sufficiently vast. Moreover, within it, phantoms of myriad beings flickered, signs of life appearing, astonishing even the Chaos Deity, who looked at Ye Chen in surprise.
He had actually manifested signs of life. This person was extraordinary, far more powerful than imagined.
Boom—
The two Chaos Great Worlds collided, instantly erupting in a great explosion that shook heaven and earth, sweeping through the entire starry region. Boundless primordial Chaos Qi splashed out, wisps of it striking the starry sky, annihilating stars in distant star domains.
In the distant starry sky, the Great Power guardian of the second pass also changed expression, staring in shock at that star domain enveloped by primordial Chaos Qi.
What kind of great battle was occurring, actually emitting such destructive fluctuations that even an ancient Great Sage like him would tremble and even feel fear?
Yet he dared not charge in. Both combatants were definitely not ordinary ancient Great Sages, perhaps even transcending that level.
Whether it was Chaos Transforms into World or the Heaven-Creating Earth-Forging Fist, both were the strongest offensive divine abilities of the Chaos Deity and Ye Chen, capable of even destroying the inner worlds of ancient Great Sages. A continent like Tian Du would absolutely be utterly annihilated under such attacks.
As powerful as they were, both suffered heavy injuries. The Chaos Deity's form cracked, half his body exploding, vast amounts of blood splattering—all Chaos blood, containing myriad extraordinary phenomena and immense vitality, astonishing to behold.
This was merely a Chaos Clone, yet it possessed such transcendent phenomena. It was hard to imagine how powerful the true Original Body must be. That Chaos Body was likely far more formidable.
Ye Chen's invincible Chaos Saint Body was similarly affected. His unparalleled physique, stronger even than the Battle Saint Body, was covered in fine cracks, spreading across his body like fragile porcelain, seemingly on the verge of completely shattering at any moment.
However, both Ye Chen and the Chaos Deity evidently possessed unparalleled healing secret techniques. Simultaneously, their blood and Qi surged mightily, generating primordial Chaos Qi, and their injuries recovered at an astonishing speed, rapidly restoring them to peak condition once more.
But both had expended a certain amount of their origin.
The Chaos battle erupted again, even more intense than before. Both moved with blazing primordial Chaos Qi accompanying their every gesture, as if intending to sweep everything before them.
The battle continued, and it was exceedingly fierce.
Without a doubt, this was the first time since stepping onto the Ultimate Ancient Path that Ye Chen encountered such a difficult battle. The opponent before him was stronger than any enemy he had faced before. He fought with all his might, not using the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd, intending to prove that his own Chaos path was superior to his opponent's.
As fellow cultivators of the Chaos Great Dao, both were forging and perfecting this path of Chaos. Ye Chen had never feared anyone.
He manifested one terrifying divine ability after another that he knew: the Heaven-Burying Stele, the Human Sovereign Pagoda, the Emperor Bell, the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd, and more, each overwhelmingly powerful.
Moreover, his Chaos Great Cauldron appeared. Upon it were several supreme imprints: the young generation's supreme Yin Ming from the past, the young generation's supreme of the alien race slain at the Emperor Pass, the First Heavenly King Lou Changfeng. Now, they all materialized. This Chaos Great Cauldron fully displayed its extraordinary aspect; all those slain in the past were to appear, fighting in Ye Chen's stead.
Furthermore, Ye Chen manifested the Four Extremities Connecting to Saints Form. Even the five viscera within his body glowed—the Five Elements divine ability of the Cang Clan's True King from the past, which he had forcefully manifested, now even more powerful. There was also the Life-Death Taiji Circle, originating from his eyes, the Dao of the Heaven's Gate Gate Lord, who had once imparted some to Ye Chen, now similarly manifested.
Among them, the Divine Phoenix Wings appeared, the Heavenly Roc Eighteen Forms were also displayed, the Mountain-Embracing Seal, the Human King Seal, the Immortal-Slaying Form...
This was the most intense battle Ye Chen had fought since his cultivation began. His opponent's fearsomeness exceeded imagination, forcing him to respond with all his might. Every supreme divine ability was employed to the extreme, erupting in full force, bombarding the Chaos Deity.
The Chaos Deity naturally could not remain unscathed. He was equally shocked by Ye Chen's fearsomeness, that he could be so powerful. Even his own unparalleled Chaos Annihilation Technique was ineffective. Although it could grind down the myriad Daos, making him impervious to all techniques, his opponent was also a Chaos Great Dao cultivator. The divine abilities he unleashed were also imbued with primordial Chaos Qi, thus rendering them unbreakable.
He was astonished by Ye Chen's strength, filled with wariness towards this fellow cultivator of the Chaos Great Dao. Although he was merely a Clone, he was definitely not weak, representing his strongest power at this realm. Yet, he could not gain the slightest upper hand.
The longer the battle dragged on, the more wary he became. If the other party continuously broke through realms, eventually reaching his own stage, perhaps even if his Original Body appeared, it would be difficult to kill him.
