Boom—
Ye Chen struck out once more, charging towards the next Great Power of the Soul-Restraining Hall.
However, the outcome seemed predictable. While the six Great Powers together could barely withstand the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd, now with only five remaining, their strength was insufficient. Each collision sent them flying, the accumulated injuries within their bodies growing heavier, with more blood spilling from their mouths and noses.
Moreover, these were genuine Dao injuries, far from ordinary wounds. It was the might of an Emperor—even if just a wisp, continuously emanating and pressing upon them—impossible to withstand.
"The third one, you!"
Ye Chen pointed the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd at the Void Realm Great Power, causing his expression to drastically change.
They had faced each other back at the second checkpoint of the Ultimate Ancient Path. At that time, although the Void Realm Great Power was also formidable, he could only fight Ye Chen to a standstill. Now, with Ye Chen in the Great Power realm, he was astonishingly powerful, and the revived Emperor's might was even stronger. How could he possibly resist alone?
Whoosh—
Ye Chen was impossibly fast, leaving the Void Realm Great Power no chance to flee. In a single leap, he appeared directly before him.
"This venerable one will not die!"
The Void Realm Great Power roared, manifesting the phantoms of eighteen great worlds, channeling them into the Heaven-Sundering Heavenly Spear. Boundless power surged forth, clashing with Ye Chen.
Boom—
However, even at his strongest, he was no match for Ye Chen wielding the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd. Upon impact, Ye Chen stood firm, while the Void Realm Great Power was sent flying backward. Even the Heaven-Sundering Heavenly Spear shattered, utterly unable to withstand the blow.
Yet, this was all within reason. Aside from a supreme Emperor's weapon, what armament could possibly withstand the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd?
None!
Copious amounts of blood gushed from the Void Realm Great Power's mouth and nose. He coughed incessantly, countless bones fractured within his body, his internal organs cracked, blood spurting out uncontrollably. His Dao injuries were severe, yet he still resisted desperately.
The other Soul-Restraining Hall Great Powers rushed forward to block together, but they were nearing despair. By this point, the Soul-Restraining Hall's Ancient Monarch Hall Master still had not arrived. Continuing like this, they would all be picked off one by one by the Battle Saint King and utterly annihilated.
"Sending you to your death!"
Ye Chen spoke coldly and ruthlessly. The Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd descended heavily, blasting the five Great Powers away once more. This time, Ye Chen followed with his supreme Chaos Saint Fist—the Heaven-Creating Earth-Forging Fist—striking down directly.
The Void Realm Great Power hastily circulated the phantoms of the eighteen worlds around him, placing them before him as a final line of defense, exerting his utmost to resist.
This was his last defensive power.
Yet Ye Chen merely snorted. The Heaven-Creating Earth-Forging Fist contained his strongest offensive principles, his supreme mastery and fusion of Chaos Laws. Everything was manifested in this single fist, capable of slaughtering all.
Boom! Boom! Boom!—
One great world phantom after another continuously collapsed and dissipated, utterly unable to withstand, plunging into a series of great destructions.
Finally, the fist broke through, annihilating everything, and struck heavily upon the Void Realm Great Power's body, completely piercing through it.
Boom—
The third Soul-Restraining Hall Great Power had fallen!
Too domineering!
Who could rival him? In this Decaying Emperor Realm, Ye Chen stood alone, revered by all beings, sweeping aside everything.
The four remaining ancient Great Sages of the Soul-Restraining Hall fell into utter despair. Unable to escape, trapped within the encirclement, they would be killed one by one, step by step.
"Hall Master, why hasn't he come yet?"
They were desperate, yet helpless. None of the Great Powers from the myriad heavens would come to their aid, especially with an invincible being of Ancient Monarch level from the Ultimate Ancient Path watching covetously. They could only struggle passively.
Now, they could only hope that Ye Chen would fall from his state of Extreme Sublimation. They all knew that any enhancement secret technique must have corresponding limitations and a period of weakness. Such Chaos secret techniques were certainly no exception.
However, Ye Chen's Extreme Sublimation seemed exceptionally prolonged. His aura remained at a peak state, vast and vigorous. Within his glabella, the Chaos Saint Soul infant sat cross-legged, entwined with primordial Chaos Qi, deducing various Chaos Dao principles.
Not long after, Ye Chen killed the fourth Soul-Restraining Hall Great Power as well, storing him within the Chaos Great Cauldron to be refined. Two Great Dao Divine Pills brimming with divine energy appeared, refined from the essence of an ancient Great Sage and further enhanced by primordial Chaos Qi, naturally appearing extraordinarily exceptional.
One could call these Great Power Pills, high-grade pills. Once consumed, even a Heavenly King could immediately obtain sufficient divine energy to impact the Heavenly King realm, as they contained the essence of a Great Power above the fifth heaven. Even if Ye Chen were weakened, consuming them would allow him to recover to his peak in a short time.
Among the remaining three Soul-Restraining Hall Great Powers, despair took hold completely. One even ignited himself, charging towards Ye Chen, attempting to drag him down in a self-destruction.
Unfortunately, Ye Chen was too powerful. The Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd blocked most of the self-destruction's might, the Chaos Great Cauldron isolated another part, and his Chaos Saint Body far surpassed that of an ordinary Great Power's treasure body. All these factors combined created Ye Chen's excessively monstrous defense. The self-destruction of a fifth-heaven Great Power ultimately only forced Ye Chen to spit out a little blood.
"A pity!"
Ye Chen sighed lightly, yet everyone felt their scalps go numb, knowing what Ye Chen meant by 'pity.' It was likely the disappointment at not obtaining the Great Power Pill refined from the self-detonating Great Power's divine energy essence.
Yet, precisely this made people speechless and chilled to the bone. This Battle Saint King was too terrifying.
"Two more remain!"
Ye Chen turned to kill them, but at that very moment, his expression suddenly changed as he looked outside the Decaying Emperor Realm. The other Great Powers from the myriad heavens did the same, their faces abruptly shifting.
Boom—
A supreme Great Dao pressure, one that could truly dominate the world, surged forth from the depths of the Star Sky at an astonishing speed, rapidly approaching the Decaying Emperor Realm, drawing the attention of all!
A Sovereign!
Another Ancient Monarch had arrived!
The supreme Ancient Monarch traversed the ancient cosmos Star Sky, flashing through the heavens to appear outside the Decaying Emperor Realm. A voice filled with boundless, icy killing intent suddenly exploded within the Star Sky: "Who dares to kill the experts of my Soul-Restraining Hall?"
The terrifying voice nearly caused the entire Decaying Emperor Realm to shatter, teetering on the brink, possessing boundless might.
The Soul-Restraining Hall Ancient Monarch—
Had arrived!
