"Enough, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Now it's time to leave."
Ye Chen gently let out a long breath. The moment he stood up, all the bones and tendons in his body stretched, immediately producing a series of crackling sounds.
Later, the resonance of his bones and tendons was simply as earth-shattering as thunder, causing the surrounding starry sky to tremble and crack continuously. One could imagine how terrifying his physical Saint Body was; it seemed even the starry sky could barely contain his existence.
"Hmm?"
At the same time, Gong Shenxue, who had been observing from the outside, suddenly had divine light erupt from his eyes as he gazed towards the starry prison, as if he too sensed something amiss.
Boom—
Visible to the naked eye, the Chaos Great Cauldron, which had been covered in cracks from various destructive forces, now trembled. From within, a wave of energy so vast and immense suddenly expanded outwards. Wherever it passed, it forcibly pushed back all the destructive attacks, creating an absolute vacuum that drew the attention of many.
The eighteen Insect Race Mother Queens were the first to focus their attention there.
Within, the lid of the Chaos Great Cauldron flew open, and a tall, heroic figure stepped out. With disheveled black hair, sword-like brows and starry eyes, and a profound gaze, it was none other than the Battle Saint King.
Primordial Chaos Qi swirled around his entire body as he stood atop the cauldron.
Simultaneously, the countless cracks on the Chaos Great Cauldron rapidly healed at this moment until it was completely intact, simple and unadorned. Upon it, one great Dao imprint after another shone with dazzling radiance—these were the marks of supreme experts slain in the past, now seemingly coming to life, soaring into the sky.
"What? How is this possible!"
"Impossible! The Battle Saint King is completely unharmed!"
"No, even a peak Great Power would be slowly incinerated and refined. He cannot be safe and sound!"
Not to mention others, even the Insect Race Mother Queens within the eighteen Star Nests exclaimed in disbelief.
Facing the destructive attacks of the refining formation formed by their eighteen Insect Race Mother Queens, the Battle Saint King was not only safe and sound, but judging from the aura faintly emanating from him, he was clearly even stronger than before, having achieved a breakthrough.
How could this be?
Impossible!
Even if a super Great Power were trapped, under prolonged concentrated attacks, they would either die or be left severely crippled, at the very least sustaining serious Dao injuries. They could not possibly remain so unscathed.
Yet the fact lay before their eyes!
The Battle Saint King was unharmed, and his Chaos Great Cauldron, formed from his Dao, was the same. It was simply monstrous, beyond all expectations.
Gong Shenxue's eyes instantly shone brilliantly, as if muttering to himself, a slight curve lifting the corner of his mouth: "Truly an impressive Battle Saint King. As expected, you have not disappointed me!"
"Master!"
In the distant sky, the Nine-Headed Serpent and Abenue, who were being suppressed and looking quite disheveled, were overjoyed. Indeed, their master was invincible.
"Impossible!" Gong Xuan and Gong Nanshan also changed expressions. This result was hard for them to accept, but they soon turned cold and stern: "It's just the Battle Saint Body, combined with being a Chaos young Supreme One, his physical body is innately powerful. Being able to withstand it is normal. The starry prison formed by the eighteen great Insect Race Mother Queens, combined with the formation, is not as simple as one plus one. The Battle Saint King may resist the destructive attacks, but wanting to break free is impossible. He is destined to be trapped there."
Clearly, they acknowledged the indestructibility of Ye Chen's Chaos Saint Body but still did not believe he could break through the starry prison and escape.
This was also the worry of the Nine-Headed Serpent and Abenue. If that were truly the case, they would both be in great danger.
"Human, Battle Saint King, you are indeed formidable. Not only did you resist our attacks, but you also achieved a breakthrough. We have to admire you. However, we still do not believe you have the ability to break through the Eighteen Star Formation formed by our eighteen Mother Queens." One Insect Race Mother Queen spoke, unusually carrying a trace of gravity. Even they had to admit the prowess of this human Battle Saint King.
Yet that was all. Regarding the Eighteen Star Formation, they remained full of confidence.
"Oh, is that so?"
Ye Chen's black hair was disheveled, his entire person possessing a special Imperial demeanor, a grace that could illuminate past and present.
Under countless dumbfounded gazes, he swept his eyes over the eighteen Star Nests and smiled faintly: "Although I don't know if I can break it either, I still have to thank you for thoroughly repairing my Chaos Small Universe. If not for this, I would not have been able to undergo this greatest epiphany."
Boom—
The next instant, an unprecedented great terror pressure erupted from Ye Chen's body—it was the heavenly might of a universe, overwhelming the heavens and suppressing all realms.
One illusory world heaven and earth after another continuously manifested. He was like the lord of ten thousand realms, standing at the center, looking towards the eighteen Star Nests, and speaking softly: "To express my gratitude to you, let me show you the strongest Forbidden Divine Ability I comprehended through my epiphany—"
His head full of black hair danced wildly, each strand like a true dragon roaring and howling.
He strode forward, and with a whoosh, descended before the great Dao light screen. His eyes instantly became many times more profound, as if containing the sinking of entire epochs, unfathomably deep.
A single fist was thrown forward just like that.
BoomBoom—
The heavens and earth shook, the starry sky trembled!
The throwing of this fist seemed very slow, yet the instant it was thrown, from the fist surged forth one strand of primordial Chaos Qi after another, traversing the vast sky, with countless threads of dawn light emerging.
Each wisp of dawn light represented a Dao principle. Thousands of wisps meant thousands of different great Dao laws, all emerging, evolving into the myriad Daos of all heavens.
At this instant, the myriad Daos violently exploded, and a massive spherical phantom appeared.
It was very hazy, only about ten zhang in radius. Yet the moment it appeared, with a terrifying loud boom, the entire heaven and earth seemed to completely collapse. An immeasurable pressure spread out, terrifying beyond measure, as if this starry sky could no longer bear it and was about to be utterly annihilated.
That's right, it was a universe phantom, not the simple great world phantom of before. Within it contained miniature phantoms of the myriad realms of all heavens, and moreover, harbored an unprecedented great terror pressure.
This was the divine might of Chaos, the pressure of the highest-level world of the Chaos Sea. If it were a mature Chaos universe like the Sealed Realm Universe or the Alien Race Universe, the pressure would even be more terrifying than that of an Imperial Supreme One.
Because such a Chaos universe could give birth to a Heavenly Dao and could also give birth to Imperial Supreme Ones.
Although Ye Chen's current fist was still far from comparable, in the future, it might not be impossible to grow to that level—a single fist opening a great universe. By that step, perhaps Ye Chen would have transcended eternity as well.
Strongest Forbidden Divine Ability—
Opening Heaven Universe!
