The Battle Saint King appeared, interposing himself between Battle Saint Qian Xun and the Sun King. His figure was majestic and heroic, with black hair cascading down, exuding an immortal divine bearing that astonished all.
This was the Battle Saint King!
Yet in the distant sky, the true Battle Saint King Ye Chen had not moved an inch, staring in shock at the "Battle Saint King" who had abruptly appeared there.
Why was there another him over there?
He was clearly right here, having not moved a single step.
Beside him, Nine Serpent was also stunned by the sight, looking at his master by his side, then at the other Battle Saint King in the distant sky, utterly dumbfounded.
However, this suddenly emerged Battle Saint King also possessed surging Saint Body blood energy, boiling and circulating within him.
"Interesting," Ye Chen murmured to himself as he watched the imposter Battle Saint King from afar. He was in no hurry to reveal himself; instead, he observed the scene with keen interest.
"Battle Saint King, has this heartless scoundrel finally been unable to resist showing himself?" Qian Xun looked at the figure who had appeared, her cold voice suddenly erupting. Even her handsome, divinely majestic face was filled with boundless killing intent.
Yet at the same time, her Heaven-Shaking Hand continued its trajectory unabated, slapping forward with immeasurable divine might.
If this slap landed, even a young generation's supreme of the Sun King's level would be severely wounded and on the brink of death, with no chance of escape.
The imposter Battle Saint King who had abruptly emerged remained expressionless, bathed in brilliant golden light. However, what shocked everyone was that he did not employ the Battle Saint Art. Instead, he unleashed another terrifying divine ability. A slender, pale palm struck out, yet a terrifying great world manifested, descending like a real, vast realm to collide with the attack.
Boom—!
The heavens shattered. The two forces collided violently, tearing apart the sky and earth, destroying mountains and rivers. The void for ten thousand li in all directions completely collapsed and disintegrated.
Furthermore, massive spatial chasms tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of li long were continuously torn open, devouring everything like abysses. Countless powerhouses in the area immediately retreated far away.
This collision ended in a draw, with neither side gaining the upper hand.
"Hmm? A formidable divine ability. But do you not dare to face my Battle Saint Art with your own?" Battle Saint Qian Xun spoke coldly.
The imposter Battle Saint King retorted coldly, "To deal with you, the Battle Saint Art is unnecessary."
Simultaneously, he released a gentle force, sending the four young generation's supremes behind him away from the area.
Although Divine Maiden Yun Tian, Chu Shuangyu, and the other two young supremes wished to help, they understood that a confrontation of this level between the mightiest supremes was beyond their current ability to intervene. Their presence would only become a burden to the Battle Saint King, so they turned and swiftly departed.
Battle Saint Qian Xun paid them no mind; her target was solely the Battle Saint King. The others were mere ants.
"Heh, quite the boastful tone. But I wonder if you possess the skill to back it up," Battle Saint Qian Xun attacked again. His entire body erupted with billions of zhang of golden light, his vast Saint Body blood energy rumbling like a boundless ocean, sweeping across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, shaking the firmament.
Boom—!
The sky was seen splitting apart. There, an incomparably gigantic finger appeared, larger than a sky-pillar, blotting out the heavens as it slowly descended!
Severing Heaven Finger!
Once again, the invincible Battle Saint Art!
The imposter Battle Saint King also made his move. His aura surged boundlessly as he formed hand seals. Still, it was not the Battle Saint Art. Similarly, he pointed a single finger.
Yet this finger contained unparalleled, profound Dao principles. A point of brilliant light flickered at the fingertip, then rapidly expanded. Subsequently, it suddenly collapsed, giving birth to a deep, pitch-black abyssal black hole.
Around the black hole, one resplendent Star River after another swirled in vortex patterns, akin to terrifying black holes in the starry sky, pulling in surrounding stars and even entire Star Rivers, forcibly devouring them—a truly fearsome sight.
The terrifying black hole shot forth, directly colliding with the Severing Heaven Finger that pressed down upon the firmament.
There was no terrifying great collision, no cataclysmic power capable of destroying heaven and earth spreading out. There was only a silent mutual annihilation, nothing more.
Yet it was precisely this kind of collision that caused everyone present to change their expressions drastically.
For the destructive power contained within such a collision was the purest form of annihilation, far surpassing all else.
Even a super Great Power at the seventh heaven would likely change expression upon facing it.
The powerhouses watched in awe. Both the Battle Saint King and Battle Saint Qian Xun were peerless Great Powers, far exceeding ordinary Great Powers, their strength astonishingly formidable.
"You are indeed powerful. But for the things you did back then, for heartlessly abandoning her, I will now seek justice on her behalf!"
Boom—!
Battle Saint Qian Xun attacked once more, this time even more fiercely. The Battle Saint Art flowed effortlessly, practically blotting out the sky and covering the earth. His terrifying combat power swept across the horizon, directly assailing the imposter Battle Saint King before him.
Mounted on the Golden-Winged Roc, a golden war spear materialized in his hand, which he furiously swung down.
Boom—!
This stretch of heaven and earth could not withstand the force, being directly torn asunder.
Moreover, that golden war spear was forged from Nine Tribulation Gold—one of the Chaos Nine Immortal Golds, a material coveted by Emperors and immortals alike to forge their own supreme Dao weapons.
Even many supremes, throughout their entire lives, never obtained such a treasure, for the Chaos Nine Immortal Golds were encountered by chance, not sought. That Battle Saint Qian Xun could obtain such a large piece and forge it into his golden war spear was enough to demonstrate how terrifying his fortune was.
However, the imposter Battle Saint King's expression remained unchanged. He spoke little, but a crystal sphere appeared in his hand. Upon closer inspection, it was unmistakably a Monarch World Heart. In his grasp, it suddenly radiated the most terrifying world power, far beyond what ordinary world power could compare to.
"The mighty Battle Saint King actually possesses a Monarch World Heart as well. No, wait—it's said he killed Qin Jiu You, the Vice Hall Master of the Soul-Forbidden Hall, and obtained it from him. I never expected he hadn't refined it but instead forged it into a magical artifact for attack. Truly remarkable."
Many sighed in admiration.
Yet the true Battle Saint King Ye Chen, in the distant sky, frowned.
Although he had also obtained a World Heart from Qin Jiu You, he had already refined it, using it to bear his Chaos Small Universe, merging it with his dantian space to become a source point.
This Battle Saint King before him was an imposter, yet to his surprise, he also possessed a precious treasure like a Monarch World Heart. It was truly astonishing.
Clearly, the other party's identity was also far from simple. Otherwise, how could he have obtained such a Monarch World Heart?
Yet he was also puzzled. Who exactly was this person? Why impersonate him? Why intervene to save the powerhouses of Moon Palace? And why engage Battle Saint Qian Xun in battle at all costs?
His eyes grew profound. The Heaven's Gaze shot forth strands of terrifying, piercing light, seeing through everything. Vaguely, he discerned another figure hidden beneath the heroic form.
No, to be precise, there were two figures—one large, one small!
