"You—"
The white-robed figure panicked, trying to dodge, only to find that this violent attack wasn't aimed at him. Instead, it slammed fiercely into the palace hall doors behind him, causing the already cracked doors to tremble even more precariously. A voice that felt somewhat familiar to him transmitted over: "Hurry up and blast the door open, then leave. I'll hold them off here."
"Holy crap, brother, who the hell are you? You're actually willing to help me like this. If I weren't into girls, I'd totally be down to get with you." The person beneath the white robe was moved to tears of gratitude, but his actions didn't slow down in the slightest. He immediately struck at the palace hall doors. The cracks on the doors grew larger and larger, spreading across the entire ancient gate, on the verge of shattering.
"Don't even think about leaving!"
None of the other Emperor Sons and Daughters or Immortal Dao Descendants were pushovers. How could they allow the white-robed figure to escape with the Crimson Gold Emperor Crown? They hastily made their moves.
However, Ye Chen stood blocking the path of all the Emperor Sons and Daughters. An unprecedented terrifying aura surged from his body, locking onto each and every one of them as he spoke coldly: "Want to make a move? Ask me if I'm willing first."
"Hmph, so what if you're an Emperor Son? Thinking you alone can block all of us is just wishful thinking. It's perfect—we'll deal with you first, then kill that guy, reducing the competition." The Mohe Imperial Princess snorted coldly. Her eyes blazed with black-hole-like radiance, filled with a sinister, terrifying murderous intent.
The Brahman Emperor's Son, the Emperor Son Hua Chengdao, the Life Emperor's Son, and the other Emperor Sons, Daughters, and Immortal Dao Descendants all stepped forward, murderous intent erupting and sweeping out majestically, tearing through the void with extreme terror.
Only the Changsheng Imperial Son was an exception. His gaze, filled with wisdom, fell upon Ye Chen. For some reason, he felt this person seemed vaguely familiar.
"Oh, is that so?" Ye Chen, beneath the black robe, faced these Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants whose murderous intent was unconcealed, especially towards the Mohe Imperial Princess and the Brahman Emperor's Son.
"Hmm, there's a bloodline aura on you that I find repulsive."
The Mohe Imperial Princess suddenly frowned. The Brahman Emperor's Son also sensed it. For some reason, they both felt the person before them seemed familiar, as if they were natural enemies.
"Hiding and skulking, not daring to reveal your identity. Are you perhaps a descendant of some ancient clan our race exterminated? Today, we'll finish the job!"
The Emperor Son and Daughter of the two alien imperial clans spoke thus. At the same time, the other Emperor Sons, Daughters, and Immortal Dao Descendants suddenly moved, attacking Ye Chen.
*Boom!—*
Facing the combined assault of the other eight Emperor Sons, Daughters, and Immortal Dao Descendants (excluding the Changsheng Imperial Son), even Ye Chen didn't dare be the slightest bit careless. He erupted with his full power, unleashing his most intense aura. Simultaneously, he executed one of the Chaos Three Styles—the Myriad Worlds Style!
In an instant, a dazzling radiance enveloped a full five Emperor Sons, Daughters, and Immortal Dao Descendants. Within it, illusory great world realms continuously manifested, cycling and revolving, trapping the five Emperor Sons, Daughters, and Immortal Dao Descendants within.
The five Emperor Sons, Daughters, and Immortal Dao Descendants seemed to have fallen into the myriad heavens and worlds, unable to break free.
The Myriad Worlds Style was the most terrifying of the Chaos Three Styles. It not only possessed the absolute destructive power of myriad worlds collapsing but also contained the great dao powers of time and space, giving birth to illusory great world realms capable of trapping everyone.
It must be known that the Myriad Worlds Style referenced part of the Emperor Dao profundities of the Temporal Emperor Technique, Primordial Beginning, incorporating them within.
Naturally, he chose to trap them rather than unleash the destructive power of myriad worlds collapsing because Ye Chen deeply understood that even with the Myriad Worlds Style, he couldn't possibly kill so many Emperor Sons and Daughters.
Being a powerhouse of the same level, he naturally understood deeply just how difficult Emperor Sons, Daughters, and Immortal Dao Descendants were to kill.
In fact, Ye Chen clearly knew that even the Myriad Worlds Style could only temporarily trap the five Emperor Sons and Daughters for a short time; it couldn't imprison them forever. But it was enough. His goal was simply to buy time.
In the blink of an eye, only the Mohe Imperial Princess, the Brahman Emperor's Son, the Life Emperor's Son, and the unfathomable Changsheng Imperial Son in the distant sky remained before him.
Ye Chen looked deeply at the Changsheng Imperial Son in the distance. The Changsheng Imperial Son, however, gave a brilliant smile and said, "Fellow Daoist, no need to worry. This Emperor Son has no intention of contesting for the Crimson Gold Emperor Crown. You all take your time; I'll go compete for the other divine radiance clusters."
With that, he actually turned and left, charging towards the hundreds of divine radiance clusters dancing within the secret hall.
Now, only Ye Chen remained, facing off against the three Emperor Sons and Daughters.
The white-robed figure watched this scene and couldn't help but say, "Brother, can you hold them off? Do you need me to help?"
Ye Chen laughed freely: "Will, don't worry. I alone am enough."
The white-robed figure suddenly trembled, looking at Ye Chen in shock: "How do you know my name?"
"You'll find out later. Right now, the most important thing is to take the Emperor Crown and leave. It might truly be related to the Emperor Dao inheritance." Ye Chen turned to face the three Emperor Sons and Daughters, his aura peerless.
The three Emperor Sons and Daughters all looked deeply at Ye Chen, a trace of wariness in their eyes. That move just now, trapping five Emperor Sons and Daughters, was enough to prove their opponent's extraordinary nature.
However, they couldn't possibly give up the Crimson Gold Emperor Crown. All of them unleashed boundless auras, striding forward, pressing directly onward: "Kill him first, then contest for the Emperor Crown. We'll each rely on our own means then."
"Agreed!"
The Brahman Emperor's Son and the Life Emperor's Son both responded, looking coldly at Ye Chen before explosively attacking.
"Even if you are an Emperor Son, facing the three of us, you are undoubtedly doomed to die!"
The Brahman Emperor's Son declared. The three Emperor Sons and Daughters directly launched a killing assault on Ye Chen. Rolling divine might erupted across the heavens. The Emperor Son and Daughter of the two alien imperial clans were both wreathed in vast, pitch-black demonic might, like demon kings descending to the mortal world. The Life Emperor's Son, however, radiated boundless holy light—the Light of Life.
Two black and one white, the three charged forward, tearing through the long sky, jointly attacking Ye Chen. There was no chivalry, no sense of shame.
This concerned who would obtain the Crimson Gold Emperor Crown, and potentially the Emperor Dao inheritance. Their opponent was also an Emperor Son-level Supreme Young Paragon. In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures were needed; there was no need to hold back.
"Is that so? We'll know once we try."
Ye Chen let out a loud, hearty laugh, filled with domineering, arrogant force, then sneered coldly: "Even three of you aren't enough!"
*Boom!—*
In an instant, the two sides collided.
*Crack!—*
The void was easily torn apart. With a thunderous roar, various-colored divine radiances erupted. Ye Chen was forced back over a dozen steps, yet the three Emperor Sons and Daughters were also each pushed back four or five steps.
In this direct collision, Ye Chen was only slightly at a disadvantage, which was shocking.
At the same time, due to the collision, the black robe on Ye Chen's body completely shattered, revealing his handsome, clear-cut true appearance, with a faint moon mark on his brow.
