For the first time, the Imperial Maiden felt such despair. This was an unprecedented, crushing defeat, the first she had ever suffered in her life, and she had nearly died.
This was something unimaginable in the past, yet it had actually happened now.
Whoosh—
But she dared not linger for even a moment, hurriedly soaring into the sky to flee.
"Thinking of leaving?"
Ye Chen snorted coldly. The Chaos Great Cauldron swallowed heaven and earth, directly collecting the Mohe Imperial Princess's body, which had been reduced to a mist of blood and powder. His true self charged forward, reaching for the Divine Soul Little Person of the Mohe Imperial Princess.
The Divine Soul Little Person of the Mohe Imperial Princess remained fearless, protected by an Emperor Treasure. Unfortunately, this Emperor Treasure could only defend and not attack, a deliberate arrangement by her father to allow his descendants to undergo more trials.
She looked coldly at Ye Chen and said, "Battle Saint King, you are indeed strong. But so what? You still cannot kill me."
"I may not be able to kill you, but I can suppress you!" Ye Chen said ruthlessly, directly grabbing for the Mohe Imperial Princess's Divine Soul Little Person.
Boom—
The light of the Emperor Treasure blazed many times brighter, repelling Ye Chen's palm and even causing his tiger's mouth to split open.
The Mohe Imperial Princess watched this coldly. With the Emperor Treasure, she feared nothing. She said icily, "Battle Saint King, you think you can suppress me? You'd better cherish this time, for in the future, you will inevitably face the pursuit of my Mohe Imperial Clan. You will find no path to heaven nor door to earth!"
Boom—
The Mohe Imperial Princess drove the Emperor Treasure, rushing toward the deepest part of the spatial turbulence, aiming to return to her Imperial Clan.
But Ye Chen sneered, "Can't suppress you? Ridiculous!"
Boom—
Light suddenly emanated from Ye Chen's dantian. The Mohe Imperial Princess's Divine Soul Little Person widened her eyes in disbelief at the scene she witnessed. Within Ye Chen's body, there was no Essence Inner World of a Great Power. Instead, there was only a spherical inner world with a diameter of no more than thirty zhang. Yet, this seemingly insignificant spherical inner world contained a pressure that made her own Essence Inner World tremble and shudder.
This pressure was something even the Sovereign Great World of the Ancient Sovereigns within her clan did not possess. Only once, when she followed her father, the Emperor, and faced the true origin of the universe, had she felt the boundless, all-suppressing pressure of the Heavenly Dao.
The pressure from this spherical world before her was far from comparable to that of the universe's origin, but it was extremely similar.
Suddenly, the Mohe Imperial Princess's expression changed drastically, and she looked at Ye Chen in horror. "Is this... a Chaos Universe?"
She could hardly imagine that the Battle Saint King had not opened an Essence Inner World but had instead defied the heavens to open a far more terrifying Chaos Small Universe.
Ye Chen said indifferently, "Congratulations, you guessed correctly. As a reward, I shall let the Chaos Small Universe suppress you."
Boom—
From within the Chaos Small Universe, a strand of universe power surged forth. Though only as thick as an arm, the moment this universe power appeared, the endless spatial turbulence instantly solidified, and space-time seemed to freeze, unable to operate.
Despair filled the Mohe Imperial Princess's heart. No wonder her Essence Inner World power, far surpassing that of peers, had been utterly destroyed earlier. Faced with true universe power, not to mention mere Essence World power, even Essence World power or Emperor World power likely could not compare.
Boom—
The Mohe Imperial Princess was unwilling to be suppressed. The light of the Emperor Treasure blazed many times brighter, striving to resist, and indeed managed to hold against the universe power, bringing her joy.
But Ye Chen sighed lightly. In the end, wasn't it because the Chaos Small Universe was too small and its power insufficient? Otherwise, how could it be blocked?
However, Ye Chen was not disheartened. Within the Chaos Small Universe, the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body awoke, opening its eyes. Its profoundly deep gaze pierced out from the Chaos Small Universe, landing on the Mohe Imperial Princess's Divine Soul Little Person.
The Mohe Imperial Princess also saw within the Chaos Small Universe, beneath a World Tree, the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body that resembled a seven-year-old boy. Meeting that gaze, her mind immediately sank, as if about to fall into eternal oblivion. She hurriedly snapped back, a look of lingering fear on her face.
Just moments ago, she had nearly been lost in it, unable to extricate herself.
Who exactly was this little boy? Why did he almost cause her to fall into oblivion?
Moreover, for some reason, the Mohe Imperial Princess felt a deep-seated sense of dread toward this little boy, as if he were a terrifying existence that had slumbered through epoch after epoch, impossible to resist.
This feeling was something she only experienced when facing Ancient Sovereigns.
Could it be that an Ancient Sovereign was lying dormant within the Battle Saint King's body?
Boom—
At this moment, the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body made its move. It extended a tender, small hand, but with a flip of its palm, it blotted out the sky and covered the earth, enveloping the endless spatial turbulence and even grabbing hold of the Mohe Imperial Princess.
"Get away from me!"
The Mohe Imperial Princess's Divine Soul Little Person shouted fiercely, desperately operating the Emperor Treasure. Vast Emperor Treasure light surged skyward, carrying with it threads of imperial majesty, aiming to shatter this little boy's hand and break free.
But the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body's palm was indestructible, its flesh and blood also containing imperial majesty, utterly fearless. It directly tore through the Emperor Treasure light.
Finally, it grabbed the Mohe Imperial Princess's Divine Soul Little Person, pulled it into the Chaos Small Universe, and threw it into the Supreme Ancient Pagoda, truly suppressing it.
Thus, both the Mohe Imperial Princess and the Poluo Imperial Son were suppressed by Ye Chen.
Though it had taken considerable effort, it was all worth it. These were two Imperial Sons and Daughters, scions of alien Imperial Clans. Once word spread, the blow to all alien races would be immense.
Ye Chen let out a light breath, closed the Chaos Small Universe within his body, and then quickly returned to the Shattered Emperor World along the mark he had left.
At this moment, the Nine Tribulation Divine Kings of the Poluo Imperial Clan and the Mohe Imperial Clan were wielding the awakened Sovereign Immortal Weapons to resist Weier, clashing repeatedly with the might of the entire Shattered Emperor World. The rumbling, deafening roars were terrifying, causing the entire Shattered Emperor World to tremble and shake continuously.
They also wished to leave but found it truly difficult, as the entire Emperor World was tightly sealed.
Whoosh—
Space suddenly twisted, and Ye Chen appeared.
The two alien Imperial Clan Nine Tribulation Divine Kings saw Ye Chen's appearance, their expressions changing slightly, especially the Mohe Imperial Clan's Nine Tribulation Divine King, who felt an inexplicable sense of foreboding.
Ye Chen grinned at the two, a bright yet deeply sarcastic smile, and then they heard him say coldly, "Sorry to disappoint, but not only the Poluo Imperial Son, but also the Mohe Imperial Princess have been suppressed by me."
