This attack would make even Ye Chen, who controlled the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, change his expression. It was truly worthy of an ancient Great Emperor; even a mere projection could unleash such a terrifying assault. The supremacy of an Emperor throughout the ages, towering over time and space, was not just empty words.
Even an ordinary Ancient Monarch would likely have to avoid its edge, not daring to meet it head-on.
It was evident that the projection of the Ancient Nether Emperor was now employing its absolute power.
The Emperor's staff descended from the heavens, smashing viciously towards the Primordial Sin Ancient Beast below. Ye Chen then witnessed the Primordial Sin Ancient Beast, equally fearsome, remain unfazed by this sight. Its purple eyes were cold and emotionless from beginning to end, its massive voice echoing between heaven and earth: "Not bad for an ancient Great Emperor. Though it's just a mere projection, the power it can unleash is indeed impressive. However, you have indeed underestimated me. Any of the Seven Sin Bodies possesses absolute combat prowess—"
"ROAR—"
The Primordial Sin Ancient Beast let out a great roar, which then violently exploded, transforming into the most terrifying sonic wave. An invisible force of sound waves surged forth mightily, spreading out like lightning. It effortlessly tore the void apart like fragile paper, reducing everything to nothingness, and directly affected the Law Tide across nearly a million li.
BOOM—
The collision between the two was simply unimaginable, exceeding the scope of ordinary Ancient Monarchs. The boundless expanse of the mythical ruins trembled.
Even though they were separated by hundreds of millions of li of vast territory, the various powerhouses in the Life Oasis clearly felt that terrifying, extreme fluctuation of battle. Their expressions were filled with shock and horror as they gazed into the distant horizon, unaware of what kind of earth-shattering battle was taking place.
Above the Abyss Chasm, Ye Chen also maneuvered the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body to evade. The might of that collision could very likely injure even the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. Under such circumstances, he dared not recklessly engage.
This also made one realize that the Ancient Nether Emperor's projection had held back earlier, not using its full strength. Of course, this was also because a projection could not last long; using its power meant diminishing it bit by bit.
The Ancient Nether Emperor's projection descended deep into the Abyss Chasm, engaging in fierce combat with the Primordial Sin Ancient Beast guarding it. Every move and gesture unleashed boundless Law Tides, surging down as if they cost nothing, transforming into terrifying killing intent streaks hundreds of thousands of li long that shot downward.
Below, the Primordial Sin Ancient Beast churned its colossal body, whose size was immeasurably greater than stars. Its pitch-black scales shimmered with brilliant light under the Law Tide. From it, a sky-shrouding giant claw extended, shattering those hundreds-of-thousands-of-li-long killing lights. Its purple eyes also erupted with boundless purple radiance, like two purple great suns soaring into the sky, carrying immeasurable purple light power that annihilated swathes of the Law Tide.
The collision between the two had long surpassed the power of many Ancient Monarchs.
Even more terrifying was that within this Abyss Chasm, the shattered fragments of great worlds continuously fell from the solid earth like raindrops, plunging into the depths of the Abyss Chasm.
Yet, despite this downpour—with shattered worlds, each spanning over a hundred thousand li, falling into it—the Abyss Chasm could never be filled. It was as if it led to the Nine Nether Hells, eternally unfillable.
"Successor of the Battle Saint Lineage, why aren't you making your move?" The Ancient Nether Emperor, sensing the terror and might of the Primordial Sin Ancient Beast, found it difficult to break through even with its full strength.
Ye Chen sneered coldly: "Why should I help you, a member of an alien race?"
"Because within the forbidden land, there are also things left behind by the Emperors of your Sealed Universe. Don't you wish to reclaim them?" The Ancient Nether Emperor's words shook Ye Chen's heart. The forbidden land guarded by this Primordial Sin Ancient Beast actually contained items belonging to the Sealed Universe.
Whatever existed within a forbidden land guarded by such a fearsome Primordial Sin Ancient Beast was likely anything but simple.
Ye Chen's interest was piqued. Moreover, he could see that while the Ancient Nether Emperor's projection was powerful, it could not last. It had already grown much fainter, and continuing like this, it wouldn't be long before it completely dissipated.
That was why the Ancient Nether Emperor, disregarding the fact that Ye Chen was from an opposing ancient universe, had spoken up.
However, for Ye Chen, hatred for the alien ancient universe surpassed everything. The Ancient Nether Emperor before him was one of those who had participated in the siege against the Battle Saint Ancestor. How could he possibly lend a hand? Yet, at this moment, he charged down.
Seeing the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, the Primordial Sin Ancient Beast did not underestimate it because it resembled a seven-year-old boy. It also sensed a terrifying power boiling within that seemingly young body. Its cold voice rang out: "Successor of the Battle Saint Lineage? You must be a disciple or descendant of the Battle Saint Ancestor. In the past, the Battle Saint Ancestor showed kindness to another of my Sin Bodies. But do you intend to stand against me now?"
The Great Emperor Reincarnation Body remained silent, charging towards the Primordial Sin Ancient Beast and standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the Ancient Nether Emperor's projection, ready to act.
"Damn it! So you are a traitor of the Battle Saint Lineage after all!" The Primordial Sin Ancient Beast roared, its massive purple eyes growing many times colder. It let out a long, furious howl, its terrifying fluctuations surging forward to attack the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body.
However, at that moment, the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body suddenly shifted its trajectory. With a whoosh, it charged towards the Ancient Nether Emperor's projection beside it. A blazingly brilliant light erupted from its fist as it smashed a heavy blow onto the unprepared Ancient Nether Emperor projection.
BOOM—
The power of this punch was immense, having burned some Emperor Dao essence. True Emperor Dao power surged forth. The caught-off-guard Ancient Nether Emperor projection was directly pierced through, leaving a massive hole. Its entire form grew significantly more insubstantial, and the Emperor's staff shattered. An extremely furious roar echoed: "You wretched junior of the Battle Saint Lineage! How dare you ambush this Emperor!"
The attacks of the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body did not cease in the slightest; on the contrary, they grew even more violent.
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM—
Like a storm, a barrage of fierce attacks rained down. The Primordial Sin Ancient Beast on the other side was momentarily stunned, but then it too unleashed terrifying assaults, attacking from both sides.
"Damnable junior!" The Ancient Nether Emperor roared, its Emperor's shadow growing increasingly illusory.
"An insubstantial thing that cannot last—just shatter!" Ye Chen manipulated the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, once again manifesting the Heaven and Earth Cauldron to engulf the Ancient Nether Emperor's projection. An extremely dazzling radiance suddenly blazed forth, submerging everything within. Some Emperor Dao essence was burned, and infinite power was incinerated inside.
After a full half-hour, everything within the Heaven and Earth Cauldron was burned to ashes.
The Ancient Nether Emperor's projection was utterly annihilated!
