"By the way, as of now, some clues about the fourth Emperor Dao inheritance have been discovered. It should emerge completely very soon, likely stirring up another storm."
"Little Moon, with your current strength, you can contend for it a bit."
"If you can seize the Emperor Dao inheritance, or even an Origin Imperial World, you'll be able to dominate this Emperor Battle Domain." Mountain Chicken said.
Emperor Dao and Immortal Dao inheritances weren't just about the inheritance itself, but also those majestic great worlds. Even if shattered or incomplete, as long as parts remained and possessed some origin power, once refined, it would be like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, transforming into a dragon.
Hadn't they seen how Wil, after mastering the Emperor World's majestic power of the Reverse Slaughter Emperor World, could contend against an Ancient Monarch?
In the Emperor Battle Domain, whoever mastered the majestic power of an Origin Imperial World or Immortal World would be the supreme ruler, the overlord of this vast domain, supreme and presiding over the rise and fall of the entire Emperor Battle Domain.
Of course, wanting to refine and fuse even a fragmentary Origin Imperial World or Immortal World into one's own internal origin world was currently impossible.
Origin Imperial Worlds and Immortal Worlds were nurtured within the bodies of ancient Great Emperors and Supreme Immortals, containing genuine Supreme Emperor Might and Supreme Immortal Might, of an extremely profound level. Even Ancient Monarchs found it immensely difficult to refine them, let alone Great Powers and Divine Kings—it simply wasn't realistic.
Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor nodded: "Moreover, comprehending and gaining insights from Origin Imperial Worlds and Immortal Worlds is also greatly helpful for constructing a more powerful origin world."
In short, the benefits of seizing an Emperor Dao inheritance and obtaining an Origin Imperial World were unparalleled, enough to drive anyone mad with desire.
Yet Ye Chen smiled. At this point, they still didn't know he didn't have a so-called internal origin world, but an Origin Universe, albeit still in its embryonic form.
Since some suppressed Imperial Sons and Daughters and Immortal Dao descendants already knew, those close to him naturally also deserved to know.
"Let me tell you something very important. You must keep it a secret for me."
"What secret?" The others were stunned. Although Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor and Mountain Chicken were usually gossipy and curious, they both shook their heads at this moment. "If it's too important a secret, don't tell us."
They worried that if one day, due to their own fault, Ye Chen's secret was leaked, they would feel guilty.
"It's fine. Since you are my most important friends, you can know."
Ye Chen smiled, also allowing the five Divine King slaves to witness this scene.
Boom—
Suddenly, an overwhelming pressure erupted from his body, comparable to Supreme Emperor Might and Supreme Immortal Might, yet distinct from both—a supreme pressure in no way inferior to such Supreme Emperor Might.
"Such terrifying pressure! It's not vast, yet why does it give me a feeling that even the heavenly might of an Ancient Monarch cannot compare?" Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor exclaimed in shock.
"Right, I feel my divine power throughout my body can't operate effectively," Mountain Chicken also said in astonishment.
"This pressure... we felt it before too!"
The five Divine Kings were secretly shocked. That time, they couldn't see or hear, only vaguely sense it, not knowing what it was.
Now, was it about to fully appear before their eyes?
As for Yu Qing and A Beinu, they naturally weren't affected, but after years of companionship, they already knew.
This pressure lasted only for an instant before being immediately withdrawn, as if it had never appeared. Yet for everyone, the sensation of this pressure was unforgettable.
Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor and Mountain Chicken stared at Ye Chen in shock.
Ye Chen smiled. He didn't intend to hide it any longer. Opening up his body, a spherical entity about fifteen zhang in diameter faintly appeared within, filled with countless twinkling points orbiting and rotating, containing eight origin avatars and the World Tree Burial Coffin.
An indescribable, vast pressure slowly spread out, still as terrifyingly overwhelming as before, enough to freeze everything—even these few, being the strongest young supremes, were no exception.
What was this?
Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor, Mountain Chicken, and the five Divine Kings stared at this spherical object with horror. Vaguely, they felt that with the opening of the space within Ye Chen's body and the appearance of this spherical space, everything in this vast heaven and earth instantly came to a standstill; even space-time halted.
Within that seemingly small spherical object seemed to lie all the mysteries of heaven and earth, containing unparalleled potential and power.
So-called world heavens and earths were utterly insignificant before this spherical entity.
"Little Moon, this is—" The two gulped hard.
"Origin Universe!"
With the utterance of these four words, it was as if infinite heavenly thunder exploded beside their ears, shocking them beyond measure.
What was within Ye Chen was actually an Origin Universe, not an internal origin world?
How was that possible?
A Chaos Universe was the most powerful celestial body, existing only within the Chaos Sea where it could be nurtured. Yet one had actually been nurtured within Ye Chen's body? It was like a baby being born an emperor—unbelievable.
But that pressure was real. Even the Emperor World pressure Wil once possessed couldn't possibly give this feeling.
Although Origin Imperial World pressure was vast and boundless, it always felt a level inferior to the spherical space within Ye Chen, akin to the gap between an Ancient Monarch and an ancient Great Emperor.
Even if unwilling to believe, they had to accept that this truly might be an Origin Universe.
The five Divine Kings gulped hard, as if witnessing the most shocking event since ancient times, displayed unbelievably before their eyes.
"I don't have an internal origin world like others. Instead, I condensed an Origin Universe," Ye Chen said with a smile. "This was also condensed unintentionally. Only the Chaos Great Dao and the Chaos Saint Body can open up an Origin Universe. Of course, for now, it's merely an embryonic form, far from fully evolved."
He spoke lightly, but the others kept gulping one after another.
A Universe—that was an origin celestial body not even possessed by ancient Great Emperors and Supreme Immortals, only able to be born within chaos.
Was the Chaos Great Dao truly that heaven-defying? Even a Chaos Universe could be derived, becoming an origin celestial body.
Yet they were also filled with unparalleled astonishment. Merely the embryonic form of a Chaos Universe possessed supreme pressure in no way inferior to Emperor Might or Immortal Might. Even if not vast, it was extremely astonishing.
If evolved to its ultimate extreme, as vast as other ancient Chaos Universes, it would be terrifying enough.
If mobilizing the entire Chaos Universe's origin power to attack, perhaps even ancient Great Emperors and Supreme Immortals would have to avoid its edge, or even be suppressed.
One must know that a Chaos Universe was incomparably larger than any Origin Imperial World, completely not on the same level.
And a master possessing the power to control an entire ancient Chaos Universe could stand at the very peak of the entire Chaos Sea.
Only after a long time did Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor and Mountain Chicken accept this fact. They glanced at each other, smiling wryly. "Little Moon, you really are heaven-defying."
Possessing an Origin Universe also meant his future was filled with infinite potential. In the future, even without relying on the Chaos Great Dao to prove the Dao and become an Emperor, reaching Great Perfection, perhaps just this Origin Universe evolving to its end would be enough to make him invincible throughout the Chaos Sea.
"Reaching this step wasn't easy for me either."
Beneath Ye Chen's light laughter lay hardships unimaginable to ordinary people.
Back then, he was just an ordinary person, step by step, relying on himself to reach this point—extremely difficult.
But the world often only saw his surface glory; how many could see the various difficulties behind it?
Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor, Mountain Chicken, and the five Divine Kings fell into silence.
Whoosh—
At this moment, a small figure rushed out, appearing before them. It was precisely the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. Addressing the once-again dumbfounded crowd, it said, "By the way, let me introduce him. He's actually my Dao Body. I call him the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body!"
"Fuck!" "Holy shit!"
The two were dumbfounded again. The Ye Chen before them seemed to have become much more unfamiliar, suddenly revealing so many astonishing secrets.
The five Divine Kings were now shocked to the point of numbness. Glancing at each other, they felt genuine admiration.
For Battle Saint King to have enslaved and subdued the five of them was absolutely by his own means, without external help.
And becoming their master, he also possessed absolute strength.
The last trace of resistance in their hearts vanished, replaced by complete awe and reverence.
Yet in their hearts, there was also a shock: if Battle Saint King wanted to dominate this Emperor Battle Domain, with this Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, he could absolutely achieve it.
Only after a long time did Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor and Mountain Chicken regain their senses. Then they burst into loud laughter: "Damn! Originally, without the help of older-generation Divine Kings, and being deliberately targeted by the various race alliances, we were somewhat timid in seizing various divine treasure resources in the Emperor Battle Domain, even often being chased down. But now, with a Great Emperor Reincarnation Body comparable to an Ancient Monarch on you, we're reassured. We can let loose and rob freely!"
"Grandma's! We've been stifled all these years. Now we can completely let go."
"Starting now, we're going to rob those damn bastards instead. Little Moon, you can't drop the ball at critical moments."
"Don't worry. In this Emperor Battle Domain, there's nothing I fear," Ye Chen said. "My human race has been silent for many years. It's time to show the edge belonging to the human race, to make all races tremble!"
Beside him, the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body emanated an awe-inspiring might that shook past and present.
"Hahahaha—you brats, this Dragon Emperor is coming! Wait to be robbed!"
With a dragon roar, Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor soared into the sky, transforming into a massive true dragon that charged deep into the vast Emperor Battle Domain.
"Awoo—Imperial Daughters, Immortal Maidens, your handsome and dashing Mountain Chicken Lord is coming! This time, this lord will take you all into his harem to dote on! Hahahaha—"
Mountain Chicken couldn't help but let out an awoo, also flying into the sky.
"You three Two Tribulation Divine Kings, follow them and obey their commands," Ye Chen said to the Divine King slaves.
"Yes!" Whoosh—
The three Two Tribulation Divine Kings soared into the sky, following the two, accompanying and protecting them.
On this day, two notorious great bandits appeared in the Emperor Battle Domain, specializing in robbing various races!
