Son of God, Qian Xun Yue!
A simple title, yet it evoked a sense of reverence from the depths of the heart even in a young generation's supreme like Chu Shuangyu.
Son of God—that alone said everything. This was a man like a god, a former young True King of the Sealed Boundary Universe in its past generation, who later achieved the Ten Heavens with the Supreme Law.
However, his mystery was such that even his former peers among the young True Kings, like the Sun God, the Primordial Demon God, and Feng Wu, knew little about him. They only knew he was a mysterious and astonishingly powerful reclusive existence who rarely made a move across the myriad domains of the Sealed Boundary Universe.
Even after embarking on the Ultimate Ancient Path, he had only acted a mere two or three times. Yet each time truly shook the Ultimate Ancient Path; he had slain young supremes without expending much effort. An aura of mysterious immortality always enveloped him, drawing attention.
Ye Chen had also heard of this person's name, but neither in his past life nor this one had he ever met this mysterious Son of God, Qian Xun Yue. He had never encountered him. He hadn't expected to learn some astonishing information about him now from Chu Shuangyu's mouth. This person was peerlessly powerful, transcending all, and had once confronted an Overlord of the Ancient Path, nearly engaging in a great battle.
Afterwards, rumors spread that this mysterious Son of God, Qian Xun Yue, had made that Overlord of the Ancient Path quite wary, stating that this was a very powerful person who should not be underestimated. Those few words were enough to prove much.
It could be said that once those young supremes of the Sealed Boundary Universe set foot on the path, almost all of them unleashed terrifying potential, illuminating the heavens. They were all rising rapidly, their immense potential causing the powerhouses of the various ancient universes to tremble.
Now, they were gradually rising. Although they might be future great enemies in the struggle for the final checkpoint, the "Ultimate."
Yet Ye Chen felt little pressure. On the contrary, he felt a sense of relief and happiness.
It was precisely because this era of the Sealed Boundary Universe was brilliant with starlight, with supremes rising one after another, that he saw true hope.
How fearsome the blood-stained future was. According to the words of the Spacetime Great Emperor, it could bury everything, shake the entire Chaos Sea and every ancient universe—the most terrifying prospect.
The Sealed Boundary Universe needed to face it; it needed more powerhouses. Ye Chen deeply hoped these young supremes could all become true Supreme Emperors in the future, that they could stand shoulder to shoulder, resisting the blood-stained future, facing the ultimate battle, changing everything, restoring all to its original state, returning to a beautiful future.
Only, there was still pressure on his path forward—the pressure from those Overlords of the Ultimate Ancient Path, and the pressure of the blood-stained future. He needed to proceed step by step, to resolve everything, seize the Ultimate of the final checkpoint, and further perfect the Chaos Great Dao. While a sliver of hope existed, he must completely achieve the Chaos Dao, thereby transcending eternity. Perhaps that was the only hope to change the future.
"Both of you, thank you for informing me of all this."
Ye Chen expressed his sincere thanks, then departed.
Three days later, the appointed day arrived once more. Naturally, the various powerhouses were long prepared. Among them, Great Powers from all sides appeared, and even more, one supreme powerhouse after another descended. Young supremes from various factions emerged, their auras astonishing the world. Countless powerhouses gathered on the floating continent, forming a lineup that could be called world-shaking.
If not for restrictions, probably even several ancient Great Sages would have come, truly shaking the heavens.
Among them, some new faces also appeared. Ye Chen, in particular, saw alien race powerhouses, including three young supremes, their expressions cold, their eyes harboring a special killing intent.
Among the alien race, there were also seven strongest talents, though it was unknown whether any Emperor's Sons would appear. That was the most worrisome point.
The Emperor's Sons of that year—who knew how powerful they were by now? They should have long since stepped into the realm of Great Powers and progressed far enough.
If he faced them now, Ye Chen could fight, but he might not be able to defeat them as he had in the past, after all, he was not yet a true Great Power.
However, matching them was only a matter of time. Once he broke through, he would be a Chaos Great Power. Moreover, with his accumulated breakthroughs over the years, he probably wouldn't just be a simple initial step into the Great Power realm; he would likely ascend several heavens.
Hadn't it always been this way?
All sides were already prepared. With a shout, the powerhouses soared into the sky, rushing toward the Primordial Continent, charging into it.
And this day was precisely the day the Abyss Chasm split open and the Star River appeared.
Boom—
Sure enough, after an interval of ten days, the Abyss Chasm was torn open once more. That magnificent Star River appeared again, piercing through the firmament. And the terrifying living beings seated or lying upon it, one after another, opened their eyes, awakening, looking upon everything with cold indifference.
From within the Abyss Chasm, swathes of Yin Soldier armies appeared, gathering into formations, charging directly over.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The terrifying living beings on the Star River, led by the Ancient Ancestor of the Bright Clan, the nine-headed living being, and others, charged over, utterly fearless.
"So they are flesh shells that have lost their divine souls, controlled vessels. Not bad containers indeed." The seven veteran Great Powers of the Soul-Restraining Hall looked at the living beings emerging from the Star River, their eyes bursting with astonishing brilliance, filled with greed. Clearly, they harbored covetous intentions.
"What do you people of the Soul-Restraining Hall intend?" Nine Phoenix Great Ability snorted coldly, his expression icy. One look and it was clear these Soul-Restraining Hall powerhouses had ill intentions.
"Nothing much. We just want to help deal with these living beings." Void Realm Great Ability sneered. He and the other six Soul-Restraining Hall Great Powers made their move, charging straight over. Behind them, many more Soul-Restraining Hall powerhouses appeared, all rushing toward the Primordial Continent.
Naturally, the several ancient Great Sages on the Ultimate Ancient Path mostly understood the sinister intentions of the Soul-Restraining Hall. However, Nine Phoenix Great Ability and others also acted. Other starry sky Great Powers did the same. Over thirty ancient Great Sages were present here, an unparalleled lineup. Together, they launched a killing assault against the dozens of terrifying living beings emerging from the Star River. The divine might of Great Power level blotted out the sky and covered the earth, almost submerging the entire vast continent. The spectacle was indescribably magnificent.
Boom—
The great battle erupted, yet the outcome was naturally one-sided. Because over this past month, too many powerhouses had gathered—no shortage of Great Powers, and countless other powerholders besides, a mighty host. Even the terrifying living beings and Yin Soldier armies from within the Emperor's Tomb suffered a one-sided defeat.
Among them, the Great Power of the Bright Clan faced his clan's Ancient Ancestor who had lost his reason. The two fought fiercely, because a month ago, the Ancient Ancestor had devoured the flesh, blood, and divine soul of a Great Power, becoming much more terrifying, not the least bit inferior to an existence like Nine Phoenix Great Ability.
Only, although the Bright Clan Great Power was powerful, dealing with this now was somewhat beyond his current strength.
