This day was the fifteenth of the seventh month.
The day of the Myriad Ages Grand Assembly.
On Birth Emperor Star, countless powerful experts had long been eagerly anticipating this day's arrival.
And they had long known the location would be the Central Continent. Thus, numerous experts who had rushed here from all corners of the universe, from various continents and even from the more vast and magnificent oceans, all vied to enter the Central Continent.
However, strangely, when the morning sun rose and the first ray of dawn light fell, the entire Central Continent became bustling and boiling with activity, countless experts gathering within. Yet the Myriad Ages Grand Assembly, which should have been held on this very day, had yet to begin.
Even the five Ancient Monarchs who had descended from the outer realms had not made a move, causing people to feel suspicious and doubtful.
Could it be that the Myriad Ages Grand Assembly was not going to be held after all?
That didn't seem likely. For the sake of this Myriad Ages Grand Assembly, the five Ancient Monarchs had nearly triggered the most terrifying Monarch-level battle by confronting the Primordial Imperial Clan. How could they back down at this critical juncture?
Many were puzzled.
Only some sufficiently powerful experts knew that it wasn't that the Myriad Ages Grand Assembly wasn't being held, but that the time had not yet arrived.
Although it was this day, it was not during the day, but on the night of the full moon.
This was determined through calculations by the nine Heavenly Masters. Only at that time could the location of the Fiftieth Trial Pass be better deduced.
Only at the correct time and correct location could the Fiftieth Trial Pass, hidden within the great world, truly be found.
Only then could the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body truly be located.
Others soon learned the truth as well and silently waited for nightfall.
Ye Chen, accompanied by Nine Snakes, descended upon the Central Continent for the second time.
Ever since learning some of the ancient history of Birth Emperor Star from the Imperial Ruins of the Augur Empire, his expression had carried a trace of gravity.
Now, seeing the sky and earth filled with countless powerful experts, the worry in his heart grew even stronger.
This so-called Myriad Ages Grand Assembly, in the end, he felt it was very likely to come to nothing.
He very much wanted to leave, but the will of a warrior prevented him from doing so. He should bravely face the unknown, and he also very much wanted to witness the true Great Emperor Reincarnation Body.
Moreover, for some reason, even from afar on the Central Continent, he had a special sense, seemingly originating from his bloodline, giving him a feeling of closeness and intimacy that made him unable to leave. He had returned to the Central Continent, also wanting to search for the source of that special sense.
Unfortunately, there were too many powerful experts on the Central Continent, their auras crisscrossing. Even someone as powerful as him could not clearly sense the source of that special aura at this moment.
Was it War Saint Qian Xun's?
A mutual resonance between fellow Saint Body bloodlines?
But he immediately shook his head, because this feeling was more like one of blood being thicker than water, as if a close relative, a person of utmost kinship, was there, their bloodline resonating with his own, causing the bloodline within his body to resonate distantly, making his heart tremble.
"What exactly is it?" Ye Chen frowned, his gaze profound, activating the Heaven's Eye to survey the entire Central Continent.
After some contemplation, he ultimately found nothing.
The other party was hidden too deeply.
However, during this time, he did sense one powerful and terrifying aura after another flowing and hidden within this place, extremely formidable.
In fact, their strength absolutely surpassed that of ordinary Great Powers, to the extent that a considerable number of these experts even gave Ye Chen a sense of danger.
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. "As expected of something related to the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. It has indeed attracted enough powerful experts. I'm afraid some peerless experts whom many in the past believed had passed away will resurface this time."
This time, concerning the Myriad Ages Grand Assembly, the waters ran deep. He even felt that many beings whom the world believed had passed away in meditation would jump out during this event.
Elsewhere, a young man who could be described as heroic and majestic tore through the void and emerged, accompanied by brilliant golden light, riding a Golden-Feathered Roc and holding a golden war spear. It was none other than War Saint Qian Xun.
He appeared at the center of the Central Continent, where numerous experts from the outer realms had gathered. Yet the instant he appeared, he directly startled everyone present.
Because his battle aura was immeasurable, and he was no ordinary Great Power. He carried a sharp killing intent, his eyes blazing as he fearlessly swept his gaze over the many powerful experts within this stretch of heaven and earth, not worrying in the slightest that such a brazen act would provoke the anger of these equally arrogant experts from the outer realms.
Naturally, facing this great slayer god famous on the Ultimate Ancient Path, many experts were wary, deeply aware of his cultivation, and could only glare at him angrily without daring to speak out.
"Battle Saint King, come out!"
War Saint Qian Xun's voice was immense, directly spreading across the wilderness. Under the influence of his Dao might, it directly echoed throughout the sky above the Central Continent, rumbling like thunderclaps without end, extremely terrifying.
It also attracted the attention of experts from all sides.
Here he comes again!
Everyone knew that this War Saint Qian Xun, who possessed the potential to become a future overlord on the ancient path, though also a Battle Saint, seemed to have a particular grudge against another Battle Saint of the same lineage, the Battle Saint King, which was quite puzzling.
Many speculated that there was some deep-seated enmity between these two Battle Saints, causing this War Saint Qian Xun to persistently pursue and hunt down the Battle Saint King.
Far on the other side, Ye Chen also saw the much-watched War Saint Qian Xun.
Without a doubt, for two Great Power-level Battle Saints meeting on the same continent, for beings as powerful as them, this distance was equivalent to meeting at close range. Ye Chen could clearly feel the Saint Body bloodline power within his body boiling autonomously, just as it had when he previously entered the wasteland of the Eastern Barbarian Continent.
This was the resonance between Saint Body bloodlines.
And more importantly, Ye Chen could distinctly sense a special aura from this War Saint Qian Xun, submerged within the Saint Body aura, hidden very deeply. Ordinary Great Powers would be utterly unable to detect it, yet it could not completely evade the divine sense perception of him, a Chaos young generation's supreme, and was thus detected.
This special aura made his heart tremble, feeling familiar, yet despite racking his brains, he could not recall where he had encountered it before.
"Who exactly is this Qian Xun? Why does he give me such a familiar aura?"
However, the instant the bloodline within his body boiled, Ye Chen immediately willed it and directly suppressed it, everything returning to normal.
He did not want to expose himself too early, accustomed to hiding in the shadows, quietly waiting for the right moment to act.
Yet at that very instant, his eyes blazed as he swept his gaze across the entire Central Continent.
Because he sensed not just his own and War Saint Qian Xun's two Saint Body bloodlines, but a third.
