The two Chaos Saint Soul infants merged into one, causing Ye Chen's aura to surge abruptly.
An immensely powerful force of Chaos Saint Soul erupted, thoroughly enveloping every minute space within the Chaos Great Cauldron, seamless and flawless.
"Good, we can officially begin now!"
Ye Chen's slightly closed eyes snapped open, shooting out blazingly brilliant rays of light. He then looked over, as his vast and unparalleled Chaos Saint Soul force spread out, also enveloping the Chaos Dragon Source and the ten Imperial Dao Dragon Qi, beginning their fusion with the Dragon God Pill liquid ahead.
Boom—
The most crucial step had officially begun, not to be disturbed.
Within Tianhua Mansion, the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor and the Nine Supreme Heavenly Prides all sensed the terrifying fluctuations continuously emanating from the layers of grand formations. It was clear the critical moment had arrived, and they knew not to disturb him.
Moreover, they had also learned of the many news from the outside world, their hearts sinking slightly.
Because the Zhoutian Chieftain was being restrained by the three Divine Kings of the Alien Emperor Clans, and the Zhoutian Clan also intended to avoid conflict, unwilling to make enemies of the three Alien Emperor Clans.
In the current situation, their position was very precarious. The Alien Emperor Clans, who had long been eyeing them covetously, would inevitably seize the opportunity to act. Other top-tier major powers would also likely kick them while they were down, turning against them.
Although the five Nine Tribulation Divine Kings were present, Ye Chen had long made it clear that unless it involved the Divine King level, he would not let the five Nine Tribulation Divine Kings intervene. Otherwise, it would not provide the corresponding tempering.
If they couldn't even overcome this minor tribulation, how would Ye Chen reverse that blood-stained future someday?
"Be careful during this period, don't give anyone an opening. Ye Chen is currently at a critical juncture and must not be disturbed." Even the usually playful Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor had turned serious. Naturally, the Nine Supreme Heavenly Prides were the same, each one focusing intently, ready for anything.
Boom—
Right at this moment, one terrifying figure after another appeared successively, descending in the sky above Tianhua Mansion. Among them, the three Alien Emperor Clans took the lead, looking down from a high position, overlooking everything.
"You two little bastards inside, get out here before this lord!"
Among them, a super Great Power from the Brah Emperor Clan spoke, his voice rumbling like thunderclaps, extremely terrifying, shaking heaven and earth.
Within Tianhua Mansion, the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor's figure soared into the air. He swept his gaze over the many powerhouses of the three Alien Emperor Clans, then his eyes fell on the shouting super Great Power from the Brah Emperor Clan. He sneered, "I wondered who was shouting. So it's the Brah Clan that lost two old fellows a few days ago. I didn't expect people like you to dare show up, personally coming to your door to deliver yourselves to death. That's quite something."
The Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor did not address them as an Emperor Clan, directly calling them the Brah Clan. Furthermore, he had always had a sharp tongue, bluntly stating that the Brah Emperor Clan's powerhouses had come to deliver themselves to death.
"You—"
The Brah Emperor Clan's powerhouses felt greatly insulted. This detestable, demonic youth, with the three Alien Emperor Clans pressing forward, still dared to spout such arrogant nonsense. He was truly seeking death.
"Heh, young man, your mouth is truly wild. Relying on despicable means to luckily kill a fellow Daoist of the Brah Emperor Clan, yet you dare be so arrogant. This old man will take care of you."
Among them, an Old Antique from the Moksha Emperor Clan stepped forward. His name was Mohe Wei, also a very ancient Old Antique, extremely powerful, not inferior to the Brah Emperor Clan Old Antique slain by Ye Chen. Now stepping forward, a powerful pressure emanated from him, causing heaven and earth to tremble.
An Emperor Clan Old Antique making a move was no simple matter. Even the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor dared not be careless; after all, he wasn't a monster like Ye Chen. However, he also let out a long roar accompanied by the rumbling sound of a dragon's cry and strode forward, laughing heartily, "You're all old monsters who've lived for a hundred thousand years. After so many years, you still can't break through to become a Nine Tribulation Divine King. Truly a waste. What's the point of living? Hurry up and die, you old salted fish. Go die early and be reborn sooner."
The Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor showed no fear whatsoever, his tongue exceptionally venomous. Phrases like 'waste' and 'old salted fish' were practically infuriating enough to kill without compensation. Moreover, he stepped forward and clashed with Mohe Wei. With a deafening boom, heaven and earth resonated, and the entire Zhoutian City trembled.
In the midst of it, the void shattered massively, and both parties retreated tens of thousands of zhang away.
Yet what shocked everyone was that the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor, facing the attack of the Moksha Emperor Clan Old Antique, had actually withstood it head-on without retreating, displaying extremely powerful, transcendent combat prowess.
This scene was undoubtedly astonishing.
"Combat power rivaling that of an Old Antique at the peak of the ninth level!"
"What? This guy can actually contend with an Old Antique without dying!"
"Heavens, he's not inferior to an Old Antique!"
"On the Zhoutian Battle Stage, he didn't rely on despicable means to kill Brah Yun, but on his true combat power."
"Could he be another Strongest Young Supreme rivaling an Imperial Son?"
The entire city was shocked. No one had expected the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor to be able to contend with an Emperor Clan Old Antique like Mohe Wei without falling behind at all, directly displaying top-tier combat power not inferior to that of an Old Antique.
That level of combat power was, at the very least, something only Imperial Sons, Imperial Daughters, Immortal Dao descendants, and other Strongest Young Supremes possessed. Everything now was enough to prove that the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor was a Strongest Young Supreme of this level.
"So strong!"
Many people were dumbfounded, also feeling a sense of trepidation.
Indeed, birds of a feather flock together.
One Qian was terrifying enough, capable of slaying an Old Antique. Yet that demonic youth beside him, whom many believed had relied on despicable means to kill Brah Yun, was also a terrifying Heaven's Pride not much weaker.
However, the more this was the case, the more it fueled the killing intent of the three Alien Emperor Clans. Such Strongest Young Supremes, two appearing at once, and both standing on the opposing side.
Such peerless Heaven's Prides, not for one's own use but as enemies, could only have one outcome—
Death!
The killing intent in Mohe Wei's eyes grew even more intense, almost gushing forth.
Simultaneously, behind him, the numerous powerhouses of the three Alien Emperor Clans all soared into the sky, instantly arriving beside Mohe Wei. Extremely terrifying killing intent manifested one after another, rumbling and shaking the entire Zhoutian City.
The entire city was filled with a murderous aura!
Within Zhoutian Palace, the Zhoutian Chieftain sensed the terrifying killing intent of these many Great Powers. His gaze sharpened slightly, then swept over the three Alien Emperor Clan Divine Kings before him. He sighed lightly, "For the sake of a junior, why go to such lengths?"
Ultimately, he still somewhat admired Ye Chen.
At such a young age, he was already a generation's Alchemy Master, with profound and unfathomable cultivation, capable of slaying Old Antiques, displaying sufficiently astonishing, monstrous talent.
It could be said that given time, he believed that within a hundred years, Ye Chen could contend with supreme powerhouses at the Divine King level.
In the future, achieving the rank of Ancient Monarch and charging into the Emperor Dao realm was not impossible.
This was a junior with limitless potential, whom he valued greatly. Otherwise, he wouldn't have intervened earlier to block the Alien Emperor Clan powerhouses from continuing to act on the Zhoutian Battle Stage, left a teleportation array in the auction hall private room, and even restrained the three Alien Emperor Clan Divine Kings.
