During this time, Ye Chen naturally appeared as well. He brought Yu Qing, A Beinu, the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor, and his eight Supreme Talents, the group observing from a distance.
The five Divine Kings behind them also flickered in and out of sight, always watching, naturally also quite desirous of the Emperor Dao inheritance.
"Is there really an ancient Great Emperor or Supreme Immortal inheritance inside?"
Mo Haishen was somewhat doubtful. Back then, the inheritance site of the Great Emperor Ni Qiang that Wei Er obtained was far more magnificent and grand than the Heavenly Palace Divine Hall that had appeared now.
He felt that although this Heavenly Palace Divine Hall could also be considered grand and massive, compared to the imperial traces of Great Emperor Ni Qiang, it seemed rather shabby. After all, there was also the Shattered Emperor Realm, the Shattered Emperor City, and so on, which were many times more imposing.
"What is left behind by an Emperor or Supreme Immortal cannot be measured by common sense," said the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor.
Some Supreme Ones were high-profile, establishing magnificent and majestic Heavenly Palace Divine Halls, even immortal empires, based on Emperor Realms—how vast and magnificent, beyond description.
But there were also some Supreme Ones who were reclusive figures, not as lofty and aloof as people imagined. Instead, they preferred to wander the mortal world. Perhaps an inconspicuous mortal in the mundane world was actually a Supreme Emperor who overlooked the long river of time and saw through eternal life and immortality.
Such existences, transcendent and detached, how could they be measured by common sense!
The group headed into the Heavenly Palace Divine Hall, disappearing inside. They soon sensed the extraordinary nature of the Heavenly Palace Divine Hall; there were indeed a few faint strands of Emperor Path Aura spreading, causing everyone's hearts to tremble. Could this truly be an ancient Great Emperor or Supreme Immortal inheritance site?
However, they quickly delved deeper and discovered that although the Heavenly Palace Divine Hall could be considered relatively grand and imposing, there weren't many truly valuable items inside.
Whether it was the powerhouses from the Mythical Emperor Domain or those from the Ten Heavens Alliance, they all roamed within. For the time being, they naturally did not attack each other, remaining mutually vigilant as they silently searched for treasures within the Heavenly Palace Divine Hall, sensing the few faint strands of Emperor Path Aura flowing within, wanting to find the true supreme treasure that was emitting this Emperor Path Aura.
After half a day of searching, despite there being over twenty Divine King realm supreme powerhouses from various major forces, as well as many Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants roaming within, with various divine senses constantly spreading and exploring, they still couldn't find it.
Many even began to suspect this was just a trap.
Boom—
Suddenly, a treasure emerged, accompanied by brilliant treasure light that swept across all directions, and a faint strand of Emperor Path Aura was vaguely visible, suspected to be related to an ancient Great Emperor.
Could it be a secret treasure of an ancient Great Emperor's inheritance?
The emergence of this treasure immediately caused many powerhouses to soar into the sky, engaging in a struggle for it.
Among them, some perished, accompanied by blood light.
That treasure flew through the sky and burrowed into the earth, as if possessing its own intelligence, quite extraordinary. Many Divine Kings chased after the treasure, and in the end, this treasure actually appeared right in front of Ye Chen.
Boom—
Immediately, a full seven Divine Kings attacked. A brilliant and terrifying barrage of Divine King laws blasted over, extremely terrifying, annihilating time and space.
"Go!"
Without a second thought, Ye Chen directly grabbed this Supreme Treasure, then soared into the sky, swiftly evading all attacks.
"Chase him!"
Naturally, it also caused all the Divine Kings to give chase.
"Yue!"
"Little Moon!"
His wives and friends by his side exclaimed with concern, but Ye Chen's voice came through: "No need to worry. You all leave first. I have my own way to escape."
Swish—
Ye Chen soared into the sky. He mastered the Boundary-Traversing Secret Art and had even grown the combined Divine Wings of the Heavenly Roc and the Immortal Phoenix behind him. In an instant, his speed increased dramatically, surpassing imagination, becoming even faster than ordinary Divine Kings. He broke through into the clouds above, and his entire person soon disappeared from sight.
"Chase!"
The other Divine Kings naturally couldn't just watch as Ye Chen took away this Supreme Treasure. One by one, they quickly gave chase.
At the same time, others also chased after him, all aiming for that Supreme Treasure. Only a very small portion of powerhouses remained on the scene.
These powerhouses were all ordinary ones; the strongest among them was only a Seventh Heaven super Great Power. They all knew they couldn't participate in the struggle, so they stayed behind, continuing to search within the Heavenly Palace Divine Hall.
However, at this moment, Ye Chen suddenly appeared again, startling everyone. Wasn't he being chased by the powerhouses of the heavens? Why had he suddenly appeared again now?
Only, no one was clear that the one being chased was Ye Chen's Chaos Supreme Body; this was his true body.
Ye Chen walked out. Without a word, he flicked his sleeve in an attack, stirring up endless astral winds that blasted everyone away. Then, with another flick of his sleeve—Sleeve Cosmos—he directly stored the entire Heavenly Palace Divine Hall into his sleeve robe before turning to leave.
This scene was also witnessed helplessly by everyone.
On the other side, Ye Chen's Chaos Supreme Body was streaking away like lightning through the sky. Behind him, a group of super powerhouses was in pursuit, including a full twenty Divine Kings from the Nine Great Empires, Emperor Clans, and Immortal Clans, as well as many Great Powers. Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants were also among them, all aiming to obtain that Supreme Treasure item from Ye Chen.
Although Ye Chen was fast, they were also very fast, unable to truly create distance.
This chase and escape lasted for over ten million li, from the Cloud Heaven Empire all the way to the Yang Xia Empire. Many Divine Kings chased relentlessly, with Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants also in pursuit behind them, all wanting to seize that Supreme Treasure item.
In the end, Ye Chen stopped. After all, it was only the Chaos Supreme Body, unable to be maintained for long periods. Moreover, it was sufficiently far from the true body and had already become many times more illusory and faint. Among them, a Divine King took action, shouting loudly, "Attack quickly! He's not the true body! Shatter his Dao Body!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!—
A series of Divine King attacks blasted forth, annihilating heaven and earth, extremely terrifying.
Not long after, Ye Chen's entire person was sent flying backward, nearly causing the Chaos Supreme Body to completely shatter. The Supreme Treasure item was still tightly gripped in his hand. However, he grinned at the Divine Kings and said, "Do you want to obtain this Supreme Treasure item? Heh, come and snatch it then. Imperial Maiden Gu Lan, you asked me to divert attention, and the goal is accomplished. Now I'll return it to you."
As he spoke, Ye Chen's Chaos Supreme Body began to burn, transforming into a streak of light before shooting like lightning toward the stunned Imperial Maiden Gu Lan at the rear. Then, everyone saw that Supreme Treasure item land in her hand.
"It was all her scheme! It's in her hands now! Attack! Kill her!"
The Divine Kings of the Nine Great Empires attacked without hesitation. Various Divine King attacks instantly blasted toward Imperial Maiden Gu Lan.
"Battle Saint King, I curse your grandmother!"
Imperial Maiden Gu Lan couldn't help but curse out loud!
