Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's expression turned serious. He believed that after witnessing his terrifying power earlier, Gu Jiuhua wouldn't speak so lightly. This meant something strange was indeed happening.
Moreover, he could clearly sense that as the beams of divine radiance erupting from the towering Dragon Tombs continuously merged into the Dragon Tomb Will, the will—which had been somewhat weakened by his suppression—was now rapidly growing in grandeur and terror at a visible pace.
The terrifying aura was continuously rising, becoming many times more powerful than before.
This is bad!
Ye Chen's expression changed slightly. No matter how foolish he was, he knew the Dragon Tomb Will's strength was related to these divine radiance pillars from the tombs.
With a long roar, he threw a punch, unleashing one hundred and eight divine radiance Heavenly Dragons that danced across the sky, charging towards the beams of divine radiance to sever them.
However, each divine radiance pillar was quite stable, and Ye Chen's attacks proved ineffective.
Seeing this, Ye Chen's expression darkened. He personally took action, slapping out a palm. The Chaos Great Cauldron blasted forth, carrying unparalleled power that directly shattered the divine radiance pillars before him. The Supreme Ancient Tower did the same.
Under the assault of the tower and cauldron, they were absolutely unstoppable and invincible.
However, the Dragon Tomb World had buried not just a handful of the Crimson Scale Dragon clan's ancestors, but generation after generation over countless years, giving birth to the current Dragon Tomb World. It was impossible to completely sever them all.
Boom—
By this time, the Dragon Tomb Will's aura had rapidly surged to a certain limit, becoming so powerful that even the enhanced Ye Chen felt a sense of oppression.
The tower and cauldron blasted out, directly striking at the Dragon Tomb Will.
Yet the Dragon Tomb Will also surged with a majestic and peerless power of the Great Dao, forcefully blocking the attacks. Ye Chen's assault was completely in vain.
"Retreat!"
Under duress, Ye Chen had no choice but to hold the crimson-gold cocoon of light and charge towards the exit of the Dragon Tomb World.
"Trying to leave?"
The Dragon Tomb Will snorted coldly. Its power instantly received an immense boost, far surpassing its previous state by who knew how many times. A force that could be described as majestic spread out like lightning, enveloping the area in front of Ye Chen. Moreover, the terrifying divine radiance pillars blasted towards him.
Ye Chen snorted coldly and slapped out a palm, immediately shattering several pillars. However, because of this, his speed was greatly reduced.
At the same time, the Dragon Tomb Will caught up. From the heavens, a terrifying giant claw reached down, as if five Primordial True Dragons were swooping down—even more fearsome than before. The very heavens and earth were collapsing.
Boom—
Even with the tower and cauldron for defense, Ye Chen was useless. He was violently struck down, smashing into the ground below and causing destruction across a radius of ten thousand zhang.
"Master!"
Abenue, seeing this, wanted to rush over, but Gu Jiuhua stopped her, saying gravely, "Lady Abenue, you must not charge forward lightly. Even Lord Ye Chen cannot withstand it. If you go over, it would be futile, and you might even become a burden."
Abenue naturally understood, but she was deeply concerned for her master.
The next moment, Ye Chen soared into the sky, though he appeared somewhat disheveled at this moment, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He hadn't expected that even in his enhanced state—stronger than a ninth-level Great Power and even comparable to an ordinary super expert at the Nine Tribulations realm—he would still be no match for the Dragon Tomb Will before him.
Perhaps this was the true power of the Dragon Tomb Will.
Naturally, he wouldn't give up easily. He summoned the tower and cauldron to return quickly, and the Supreme Ancient Tower rapidly awakened, emanating a powerful monarchial heavenly might.
On the other side, Ye Chen placed the crimson-gold cocoon of light into the Chaos Great Cauldron, slapped it away to send it out of the Dragon Tomb World, and transmitted a message to Abenue: "Abenue, take the Chaos Great Cauldron and leave."
"But Master—" Abenue worried.
"Don't worry, I'm fine," Ye Chen said.
Without another word, Abenue picked up the Chaos Great Cauldron and charged straight towards the exit of the Dragon Tomb World.
However, a sudden change occurred. Just as Ye Chen prepared to confront the Dragon Tomb Will, the vast will abandoned Ye Chen and chased after Abenue in the distant sky like lightning.
This sudden turn of events even startled Ye Chen, but he quickly realized it was likely inseparable from the crimson-gold cocoon of light within the Chaos Great Cauldron.
At the same time, Ye Chen also executed the Boundary-Traversing Secret Technique, swiftly traversing space to charge towards Abenue, transmitting another message: "Abenue, be careful behind you. Enter the Chaos Great Cauldron."
Abenue naturally sensed the Dragon Tomb Will chasing her like lightning from behind. Without another word, she directly entered the Chaos Great Cauldron and closed the lid.
Boom—
The next moment, a terrifying dragon claw reached down, directly grabbing for the Chaos Great Cauldron.
"Seeking death!"
Ye Chen shouted, unleashing the awakened Supreme Ancient Tower. Carrying vast monarchial heavenly might, it crossed the sky and crashed into the claw with a thunderous impact.
Boom—
However, another majestic will power surged from the Dragon Tomb Will, forcefully blocking the Supreme Ancient Tower's attack. An explosion erupted, but the Chaos Great Cauldron was grabbed and pulled towards the heavens.
Bad!
Ye Chen's expression changed instantly. He soared into the sky, but the Dragon Tomb Will had already anticipated this. Wave after wave of unimaginably powerful force surged towards him, making it impossible for Ye Chen to get close.
When he finally tore through all the will power, he found that the true Dragon Tomb Will had long since soared into the sky. He quickly gave chase and saw from afar the Dragon Tomb Will, now in the form of a True Dragon, reaching down and slowly placing the Chaos Great Cauldron into Chixue Longdi's Dragon Tomb.
Indeed, Chixue Longdi's Dragon Tomb held great strangeness.
How could Ye Chen allow this to happen? With the Supreme Ancient Tower hovering above his head, fully awakened and emanating strands of monarchial heavenly might that caused the entire Dragon Tomb World to tremble, he strode forward. Pointing the Supreme Ancient Tower at Chixue Longdi's tomb, he coldly declared, "Return my cauldron immediately, or don't blame me for being ruthless and blasting open Chixue Longdi's tomb!"
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the Dragon Tomb Will's actions slowed. It looked at Ye Chen with a sinister gaze, yet also with immense wariness towards the Supreme Ancient Tower, naturally sensing its terrifying power.
The threat of a Sovereign Ancient Weapon was something anyone would fear to some extent.
But the Dragon Tomb Will only paused briefly before continuing to lower the Chaos Great Cauldron, coldly stating, "Come if you dare. However, you will bear unimaginably terrifying consequences!"
"Heh, is that so? There truly are no consequences I, Ye Chen, cannot bear!"
Ye Chen chuckled coldly. At the same time, the Supreme Ancient Tower blasted out directly, carrying supreme and unparalleled monarchial heavenly might that surged forth, collapsing the six directions and eight wildernesses as it forcefully struck.
Under this blow, not just Chixue Longdi's tomb, but likely nearly half of the Dragon Tomb World would collapse.
However, in the very next moment, as Ye Chen looked towards Chixue Longdi's tomb, his hair suddenly stood on end, and a chill ran down his spine!
