Everyone was astonished. Ye Chen alone had consecutively blasted apart three young generation's supremes of the alien race, and he had done so with such overwhelming force, sweeping through them with domineering and tyrannical power, encountering almost no resistance.
He crushed everything, truly displaying a world-shaking divine might. He was simply so powerful it was utterly shocking and unbelievable.
Was this really just a young generation's supreme?
They almost felt he was an Imperial Son, or even a hegemon of the ancient path. He was truly an invincible existence within the same realm; young generation's supremes were unable to block his advance.
Ye Chen stood upon the celestial staircase, like a Heavenly Emperor descending to the mortal world, standing there so conspicuously, so supremely powerful and unmatched.
From his commanding height, he looked down upon the other young generation's supremes. A terrifying divine might emanated from him, flowing down along the celestial staircase, not the least bit inferior to the pressure of an ancient Great Sage, even surpassing it by a significant margin—it was overwhelmingly powerful.
Everyone below, including the young generation's supremes, felt their bodies turn cold, sensing a vast pressure as deep as an abyss and as oppressive as a prison. Many among them felt icy cold all over, as if they might explode at any moment, unable to withstand it.
Too strong!
Strong beyond description!
This was true for all the other young generation's supremes, even the supreme Dao companion pair from the Moon Hall. This young generation's supreme Ye Chen, who hailed from the same Sealed Boundary Universe as their five Hall Masters, was actually this powerful. Just who was he?
"So strong!"
Beiming Qi, Great Demon Gutian, the Fallen Angel, Sheng Tian, and the other young generation's supremes were all filled with immense wariness, even a trace of horror now.
Ye Chen looked down from above, his gaze sweeping over Great Demon Gutian, the Fallen Angel, and the other young generation's supremes. Only when his eyes fell upon Sheng Tian and the Dao companion pair Chu Shuangyu and Divine Maiden Yun Tian did his expression soften slightly. But facing the other young generation's supremes, his eyes blazed with a sharp, astonishing light, as if capable of slicing through the heavens, as he spoke coldly, "Do you still wish to continue dealing with me now?"
His icy words echoed through the space. They weren't particularly loud, yet at this moment, they seemed like the roar of a deity, resounding beside everyone's ears, deafening.
Continue dealing with Ye Chen?
Let alone others, even the various young generation's supremes felt their hearts tremble. This person was too powerful. How could they possibly deal with him? Had they not seen how the three alien race young generation's supremes were so utterly defenseless?
This was absolutely an Imperial Son-level figure, and his cultivation was profound beyond imagination, an existence with no match below the Great Power level. Perhaps even those hegemons of the ancient path were merely like this at this level.
Even the immortal couple from the Moon Hall had never imagined Ye Chen would be this powerful. It was truly beyond their expectations, yet also a pleasant surprise.
"Ah—"
The three alien race young generation's supremes had not been completely annihilated; their divine souls remained, attempting to reform their physical bodies. However, they could not, because amidst them surged brilliant chaotic light, continuously disintegrating the reforming bodies. How could they truly reform? It was simply impossible.
Ye Chen grabbed the divine souls of the three alien race young generation's supremes. Then, from the crown of his head, a Chaos Great Cauldron shot out. The cauldron opened, releasing a surge of chaotic light that shot into the sky. Within, terrifying Dao flames that seemed capable of incinerating the heavens rose, accompanied by ancient chaotic qi. Just a glance made all the young generation's supremes' scalps tingle, let alone making contact.
Yet, Ye Chen directly threw the divine souls of the three alien race young generation's supremes inside.
"Ah—"
From within the Chaos Great Cauldron, several extremely miserable screams rang out, making everyone's scalps tingle. They must have been enduring the most terrifying burning, otherwise, how could young generation's supremes of such stature cry out in such pain?
Finally, all the screams abruptly ceased. A few wisps of tribulation ashes appeared from within. On the surface of the Chaos Great Cauldron, several imprints vividly appeared—exactly the likenesses of the three alien race young generation's supremes killed earlier, all imprinted upon it, forever vanished from the mortal world.
What made everyone's scalps tingle even more was that the Chaos Great Cauldron didn't bear just three imprints. There were several others, all similar. Could they all be young generation's supremes?
Seeing this scene, everyone, including the various young generation's supremes, sucked in a cold breath, then felt deep horror. They understood just how powerful this young generation's supreme from the Sealed Boundary Universe was. Not only was he an Imperial Son-level figure, but he was also very likely a supreme hunter, having hunted more than one young generation's supreme.
One must not offend this person at any cost.
Ye Chen stood high above, his black hair loose, coldly looking down upon everyone. Finally, he nodded towards the supreme Dao companion pair from the Moon Hall and said, "Brother Chu, Lady Chu, if you are willing, you may travel with me. Fellow Daoist Sheng Tian, you may as well."
Although it was just the address "Brother Chu" and "Fellow Daoist Sheng Tian," and the same permission, there was a vast difference between them. One was a true friend, the other merely a casual acquaintance, nothing more.
This difference made Sheng Tian feel somewhat helpless and regretful. He should have stepped forward earlier, but now it was useless to think about it.
Chu Shuangyu and Divine Maiden Yun Tian were overjoyed. These words clearly proved Ye Chen sincerely wished to befriend them, the husband and wife pair. It was impossible he intended to deal with them; otherwise, with his Imperial Son-level power, if he wanted to act, he wouldn't need to go to such lengths.
With a whoosh, they arrived beside Ye Chen, clasping their fists towards him. "Thank you, Brother Ye."
"It's nothing," Ye Chen said with a smile, his expression very peaceful, without a trace of indifference.
Sheng Tian also rode his sacred unicorn horse, soaring into the sky, but he did not approach too closely, instead falling slightly behind. Ye Chen paid him no mind.
As for the other young generation's supremes, although somewhat unwilling, at this point, they dared not pressure Ye Chen too much. Ye Chen's sweeping defeat of the three alien race young generation's supremes was sufficient proof. This was an ultimate powerhouse not to be provoked; they could only helplessly follow at the very rear.
However, when they reached the Emperor's burial ground and contended for the Emperor's tomb's immortal fate, they would certainly not hold back.
Because they were all young generation's supremes, each possessing forbidden methods. Moreover, they all believed the three alien race young generation's supremes had merely been caught off guard, which was why they hadn't had the chance to unleash them.
Tap, tap, tap—
Everyone continued ascending the steps. The fierce battles outside seemed to have calmed down, leaving only this space.
The light at the end of the celestial staircase grew closer and closer. Finally, a broad gate of light appeared before them, standing at the very end of the celestial staircase. Inside was a brilliant, radiant expanse that no one could see through, nor did anyone know where it led.
Yet, the vast majority of people grew excited. Could the true Emperor's burial ground lie beyond the gate of light?
No one knew, but obviously, no one was willing to stop. Everyone wanted to cross the celestial staircase and truly step into the gate of light.
