At this moment, the myriad experts of the heavens who had scattered earlier were now standing in the sky.
Because of the Supreme Emperor Weapon and the Ancient Monarch, they felt emboldened and saw no need to retreat. They observed from afar what had been cut open within the Flying Immortal Primordial Stone and why it had unleashed such a devastating, terrifying aura.
Even Ye Chen was observing from a distance, his eyes seeming to churn and boil like a sea of chaos, seeing through everything.
Piercing through the envelopment of the Dan Emperor Cauldron, he finally saw that after the original Flying Immortal Stone cracked open, there was no longer any brilliant, dazzling flying immortal light. What appeared within was actually a severed arm, accompanied by blood-stained immortal robes, emanating boundless, all-destroying killing intent capable of annihilating everything.
If not for the Dan Emperor Cauldron's isolation, once this destructive killing intent fully erupted, it would likely be enough to directly obliterate over ninety percent of the hundreds of millions of living beings in Dan Tian City.
"A severed arm!"
Everyone's expressions changed. What kind of existence did this severed arm belong to, that it could possess such great destructive killing intent?
"It is the severed arm of an Emperor or a Supreme Immortal!"
At this moment, the Ancient Monarch spoke. His entire body was submerged in myriad supreme Dao principles, but his words were clear as he spoke solemnly, revealing the true reason. This caused everyone to suck in a cold breath.
It was actually a severed arm left behind by such a supreme existence!?
It must be said that such existences truly lived up to their reputation as the supreme, most powerful beings of the Chaos Sea, towering over ancient and modern times, immortal and eternal, invincible through the ages. Even just a severed arm left behind was terrifying beyond measure, causing the instant death of over a hundred experts, including three Great Powers, and nearly annihilating countless lives.
However, following the shock came endless horror.
Such a supreme, peerless existence had been left with a severed arm here. What exactly happened back then?
Whoosh—
The Ancient Monarch of the Dan Emperor Clan directly stepped forward to the severed arm of the Supreme-level existence. Dan Chen was startled: "Ancient Ancestor—"
"It's fine. It's not a true Supreme Emperor or Supreme Immortal. It cannot kill me."
The Ancient Ancestor of the Dan Emperor Clan was very calm, his words filled with confidence that feared nothing. This was the confidence of an Ancient Monarch. Unless a true Emperor or Sovereign, or a Supreme Immortal, made a move, who in this world could kill them?
The Ancient Ancestor of the Dan Emperor Clan approached the severed arm, resisting the great destructive killing intent swirling around it. From his eyes shot forth two beams of dazzling, brilliant gaze that penetrated into this severed arm.
"Shidai—"
Suddenly, a roar filled with unwillingness echoed out of thin air, as if piercing through time, shaking the vast heavens throughout eternity, traversing from an unreachably ancient era to resonate in this present age, deafening to the ears.
Even with the obstruction of the Dan Emperor Cauldron, everyone still felt their divine souls were almost blasted apart, their expressions horrified.
For a moment, it seemed as if they witnessed an invincible existence roaming unopposed through the Chaos Sea, overlooking the long river of time, filled with unwillingness and rage, as if having suffered the greatest scheme and assault.
Everyone's expressions abruptly changed, including that Ancient Monarch of the Dan Emperor Clan, whose myriad supreme Dao principles began to boil.
"Shidai!?"
Ye Chen's expression changed drastically. That was one of the most powerful existences throughout history, also the most ancient invincible existence of the alien race's Ancient Universe, located at the source center of that universe, eternally residing within the Cosmic Ancient Temple.
In the past, he was a supreme existence that even made the most ancient Heavenly Emperor, the Battle Saint Ancestor, the Spacetime Emperor, the Tai Saint Sovereign, and other strongest Emperors and Sovereigns of the Sealed Realm Universe extremely wary. Now, he was actually involved with another Supreme existence.
Back then, this Supreme existence seemed to have been filled with unwillingness due to Shidai's influence, and perhaps even fell because of it.
It wasn't just them; others were also thunderstruck by the name Shidai.
The words 'Emperor' and 'Sovereign' could suppress the vast heavens throughout eternity, truly deserving to be called immortal and eternal. Even time could not extinguish such supreme existences. And Shidai was even more so, one of the most powerful existences throughout history, an invincible being who had slain Emperors, Sovereigns, or Supreme Immortals.
His name alone was enough to make the Supreme existences of the various Ancient Universes within the Chaos Sea wary. Moreover, it was rumored that the mythic great destruction of the Sealed Realm Universe was planned by Shidai.
And according to certain rumors, in the future ultimate war, Shidai was the greatest mastermind behind the scenes. All of this filled that most ancient existence with boundless pressure, weighing down on everyone's hearts, making it difficult to breathe.
Could it be that the Supreme severed arm that fell from the Chaos Primordial Stone was severed because of Shidai?
"This is the severed arm of a Supreme Immortal. Perhaps in the past, a Supreme Immortal from the Primordial Immortal Realm fell because of Shidai."
Many people secretly speculated. From certain laws within the severed arm, they could infer it belonged to a Supreme Immortal from the Primordial Immortal Realm. And from that roar of unwillingness, they heard that the mastermind behind it was precisely the alien race's most ancient existence, Shidai.
However, Ye Chen frowned. Because in the past, when the Battle Saint Ancestor suffered the most terrifying Emperor-level battle, among the several Supreme beings who came to assassinate him, there were not only Emperors and Sovereigns from the alien race but also Supreme Immortals from the Primordial Immortal Realm. Both sides had reached a consensus of interest to besiege the Battle Saint Ancestor.
Yet now, he heard that a Supreme Immortal had fallen because of Shidai, which puzzled Ye Chen.
He also recalled the mythic great destruction of the Sealed Realm Universe, which was completely invaded by the alien race, only for the alien race to then fully retreat, seemingly because the Primordial Immortal Realm sent troops to stop it.
Precisely because of this, Ye Chen felt endless doubts within these events.
"Within the Flying Immortal Primordial Stone, who would have thought it contained the severed arm of a Supreme Immortal. Indeed, some Chaos Primordial Stones contain the most terrifying great horrors!"
"Perhaps during the gestation of that Chaos Primordial Stone, it unintentionally fused with the severed arm of a Supreme Immortal."
Regarding the Chaos Primordial Stones, many people were also speculating.
In the following time, the Ancient Monarch Ancient Ancestor of the Dan Emperor Clan made his move. Using the Dan Emperor Cauldron, he suppressed the Supreme Immortal's severed arm and directly took it away, leaving everyone somewhat unwilling but only able to watch.
After all, that was the severed arm of a Supreme Immortal. Even though filled with endless killing intent, if utilized well, it might not lack other tremendous benefits. One might even refine the flesh and blood essence within the severed arm, potentially creating a supreme existence.
Of course, all of this could only be imagined. With an Ancient Monarch stepping in, who could stop him?
The Dan Emperor Clan later stepped forward to offer some compensation to the forces of the Great Power who had purchased the Flying Immortal Primordial Stone and died tragically.
Of course, it was only equivalent compensation for the Flying Immortal Primordial Stone. As for the tragic death of that Great Power, the Dan Emperor Clan paid no heed. After all, the incident was sudden, no one could have stopped it, and no one would dare blame the prestigious and flourishing imperial clan, the Dan Emperor Clan.
The other several priceless Chaos Primordial Stones were also taken away. It was said they invited those few Great Powers to a safer location to cut them open, also to avoid another accident.
Tian Yi Workshop returned to peace.
However, in an instant, many people kept a wide berth from the Chaos Primordial Stones. Even though the most extraordinary ones among them had been taken away, who knew if the remaining Chaos Primordial Stones also contained great horrors?
After all, rumors said that quite a few seemingly ordinary Chaos Primordial Stones had also gestated true great horrors.
"Little Moon, what do you think?" Will asked.
Ye Chen said: "We can try cutting them open. Although some might contain great horrors, others might not."
