These Strongest Young Supremes were the future Sovereigns of the human race with the greatest hope of achieving the Emperor rank, each carrying an extraordinary aura.
Even the seemingly wretched Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor and the rooster possessed an undeniable, unignorable phenomenon—the bearing of a Supreme Emperor.
Everyone looked at Ye Chen with slight confusion, not understanding why he had suddenly summoned them. Was it just to watch his confrontation with the other Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants?
"Senior Brother!" Qin Wushuang arrived beside Ye Chen, somewhat startled and equally unclear about the reason for his summons. During the frontal battle at the Imperial Palace, he had long since been sincerely convinced by Ye Chen.
Ye Chen said, "Wushuang, since you also acknowledge me as your senior brother and we are both of the Battle Saint lineage, we both shoulder the task of revitalizing this lineage. My realm is only one Heaven higher than yours; I cannot offer much help in cultivation, but I can let you understand more clearly in actual combat the fearsomeness of the various Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants."
"As for everyone else, you can also directly comprehend the true strength of these Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants. Perhaps it will be of some help to your cultivation."
These words were spoken to Qin Wushuang, but also to all the human race's Strongest Young Supremes.
Qin Wushuang trembled, staring blankly. "Senior Brother, are you asking us to fight these Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants?"
The others were also shocked. Only Yu Qing's expression remained gentle, and the Human Emperor's Son appeared calm.
"You could say yes, and you could say no," Ye Chen affirmed and denied simultaneously, leaving many bewildered, unable to grasp the true meaning of his words.
"Currently, apart from me alone, none of you can truly engage in combat with all the Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants one by one," Ye Chen stated bluntly. "These Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants are all proud. I believe everyone understands that. But I can allow all of you to confront them more directly from another perspective."
Those present were no fools. Suddenly, they all thought of a certain point.
Ye Chen smiled. "That's right. When I truly battle those Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants, each of you can entrust a wisp of your divine soul to me, experiencing it personally and more directly feeling the strength of the various Emperor Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao Descendants. The help for you will be immense, and you will also understand their weaknesses better."
"Although our human race currently stands on the same front as these Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans, it is only for now. Once the great terror of the Chaos Burial Ground is resolved, we will immediately become formidable enemies, competitors vying for the legacies of the various Emperors. Returning to the Ten Heavens Ancient Domain, we will be rivals for the 'Supreme' Immortal Fate. At this time, knowing both ourselves and our enemy is best."
"In the future, even as enemies, we will know their weaknesses and can deal with them more calmly."
The human race's Strongest Young Supremes were all shaken in their hearts, looking at Ye Chen with added respect. It wasn't just because Ye Chen had considered so much, but also because of his magnanimity. Allowing others to entrust a wisp of their divine soul to him easily exposed his own secrets—something undoubtedly no one was willing to do. Yet Ye Chen, for the sake of making the human race stronger, risked potentially exposing his secrets, actively inviting the human powerhouses to entrust their soul power to him. This deserved their respect regardless.
Of course, this also carried some risk for each individual. If the entrusted wisp of divine soul was refined, the other party might be able to reversely explore one's own secrets. It was a double-edged sword.
Thus, for a moment, quite a few people hesitated on the spot.
Ye Chen did not blame them for this; such concerns were normal. He merely smiled.
"Yue!"
Yu Qing simply smiled gently, yet that smile was more peerlessly captivating than any immortal maiden's, carrying unparalleled trust. Light immediately shone between her eyebrows as a wisp of Soul Divine Power flew out, merging into Ye Chen's body, specifically into the space between his eyebrows.
Ye Chen smiled, touched. She was always so directly trusting, holding nothing back every time. How could he let her down?
A Beinu by his side naturally did not fall behind, almost simultaneously offering a wisp of Soul Divine Power that also merged into the space between his eyebrows.
At the same time, the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor also offered one, trusting and merging into the space between Ye Chen's eyebrows.
After slight hesitation, the other Emperor Sons and Daughters and Strongest Young Supremes also offered their Soul Divine Power one by one. However, others were not as close as those by his side and could not merge into the core space between the eyebrows, instead attaching outside the Muddy Pellet Palace.
"Battle Saint King!" Everyone looked at Ye Chen.
"I will not disappoint your expectations!"
Ye Chen smiled, then turned and left, entering the martial practice arena.
"Battle Saint King!"
A robust voice, like heavenly thunder echoing between heaven and earth, deafening, rang out in the martial practice arena. A majestic, burly figure appeared, nearly shoulder-to-shoulder with the Peerless Monarch.
"Gai Lun!"
The first opponent was also somewhat an acquaintance—it was Gai Lun.
Seeing who had come, Ye Chen felt a bit of a bitter smile, but immediately became solemn, cupping his fists and bowing to Gai Lun. "I ask for your guidance!"
"It is I who should ask for your guidance!"
Gai Lun similarly cupped his fists and bowed from a distance. The next moment, his entire person suddenly erupted with astonishing pressure. He was actually an Imperial Son who had stepped into the peak of the Eighth Heaven, his blood energy supremely powerful and unmatched. In his hand, he held a Giant Sword that seemed capable of severing heaven and earth, shattering time, carrying an unbearable weight.
Facing Ye Chen, Gai Lun did not dare to underestimate him in the slightest. On the contrary, he intended to display his strongest combat power from the outset.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Gai Lun tread upon the void. With each step, it was as if stars were falling. The void beneath his feet showed signs of crumbling inch by inch, unable to bear his power.
His majestic, burly body was like a small mountain, yet he moved with extreme speed. In a few steps, he charged before Ye Chen, raising the Giant Sword and slashing down fiercely. The broad, thick Giant Sword erupted with exceptionally dazzling radiance, Dao laws surged to the heavens, and the entire world shook along with it.
"Good!"
Ye Chen also let out a great shout, swinging his Chaos Immortal Saint Fist, carrying Chaos Ancient Qi to clash upward.
Boom!
The two strongest of the younger generation clashed, shaking heaven and earth, holding nothing back.
Various divine abilities and dao techniques manifested, accompanied by Dao laws that could tear the heavens and split the earth, along with terrifying power prepared. Among them, mournfully brilliant blood light also bloomed.
During this, Ye Chen naturally did not bully Gai Lun, suppressing his own realm to the Eighth Heaven level, battling on equal footing.
