"Seeking death!"
The Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch roared. Although the figure before him was fast, he was a dignified Quasi-Monarch. The Kunpeng Supreme Seal in his right hand did not lessen its falling momentum, still locked onto and striking at the head of the Dark Heaven Giant God Soldier. Meanwhile, his left hand shot out, its nails sharp, simple and direct as it stabbed towards the Chaos Deity-like figure before him.
"Hmph—"
A cold snort exploded from the Chaos Deity. His fist collided fiercely with the Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch's finger-palm, unleashing ten thousand streams of annihilating power.
*Swish—*
A crisp, light sound rang out as a string of fresh blood suddenly splattered down, each drop appearing crystal clear and translucent, carrying surging Great Dao divine charm.
Yet, what was shocking was that the one bleeding was not the Chaos Deity, but the Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch. His finger-palm was bent, bone exposed, hence the blood appeared.
His fist was actually harder than the Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch's fist. One must know that the Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch was a descendant of the Kunpeng, and the concentration of Kunpeng bloodline within him was quite high. His physical body was only stronger, not weaker, than other Quasi-Monarchs.
Yet at this moment, he suffered a loss. One could imagine how powerful the physical body of this Chaos Deity was.
At the same time, another supremely powerful figure, identical to the Chaos Deity, rushed out from the Chaos Deity's body. With a cold shout, it declared: "Before me, you cannot deal with a second person!"
With this shout, a large cauldron suddenly appeared in the figure's hand, swirling with boundless and infinite chaotic light. Though only fist-sized, it seemed capable of crushing the vast heavens of eternity as it fiercely collided with the Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch's Kunpeng Supreme Seal.
*Boom—*
Terrible roars continuously exploded, layer upon layer, wave upon wave, wantonly annihilating this stretch of heaven and earth.
*Hum—*
The Tomb of Fallen Heavens was extraordinary. One supreme power grave after another autonomously shimmered with Great Dao divine charm, dissolving this impact force.
The Emperor City of the Qin Emperor Clan was also not far away, autonomously reviving, threads of emperor might permeating the air, similarly dissolving the force.
As for the Ten Great Imperial Sons and Daughters of Humanity, they had long since retreated far away.
Only the Dark Heaven Giant God Soldier behind the Chaos Deity remained, but as a Quasi-Monarch level puppet, it could naturally withstand these impacts.
In the end, the Quasi-Monarch level collision capable of annihilating half a great domain dissipated just like that.
The Chaos Deity and the Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch stood facing each other, seemingly evenly matched.
"So strong!"
The Ten Great Imperial Sons and Daughters of Humanity were terrified. The Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch, whom they could only barely face by joining forces, was actually blocked by this sudden arrival.
However, seeing the chaotic light wantonly rolling over this person's body, their hearts trembled violently, guessing the truth.
Exchanging glances, they all held irrepressible shock.
Could it really be that in just over a dozen short years, he had actually advanced to this level?
How did he do it?
The Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch's figure retreated, instantly putting tens of thousands of miles between them. He did not truly close in, because he sensed the power of the other's physical body was stronger than his by a sliver.
He deeply gazed at the figure submerged in the chaotic mist, rarely revealing a solemn expression as he said: "I never expected the human race to be hidden so deeply, that there is still a Quasi-Monarch concealed within the Emperor Realm. Moreover, it seems to be a Quasi-Monarch from the Body Refinement Path. This truly somewhat exceeds my expectations."
In his eyes, as a demon race Quasi-Monarch descendant of the Kunpeng like him, the only ones who could injure his fist were Quasi-Monarchs of the Body Refinement Path, and even then, only the outstanding ones among them whose physical bodies were powerful enough to rival the physical bodies of Imperial Sons of the same rank. Otherwise, it wouldn't be like this.
"The Body Refinement Path, I indeed am. As for Quasi-Monarch?"
The Chaos Deity-like figure shook his head: "I am not."
The Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch was startled, then his brows deeply furrowed as he sneered coldly: "If you are not a Quasi-Monarch, how can you block This Monarch?"
Only a Quasi-Monarch could rival a Quasi-Monarch.
"Heh, is it that one cannot do so if not a Quasi-Monarch?"
A light laugh came from the slender figure within the chaotic mist. He actively dispelled the chaotic mist around him, revealing his true, heroic and handsome visage. A faint moon mark rested between his brows, his black hair thick as a waterfall, casually draped over his shoulders. He wore snow-white robes, appearing exceedingly elegant and noble.
Upon seeing that slender yet familiar heroic figure, the Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch was first stunned, then revealed deep shock: "It's actually you, Battle Saint King!"
Although Di Wushuang, Shen Rong, Ye Cangqiong, and the other Ten Great Imperial Sons and Daughters of Humanity had long guessed, now that they truly saw him, they couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
The Battle Saint King of years past was already a peerless figure they could not hope to match. Now, after a separation of over a dozen years, they had continuously improved and grown under the tempering of their ancient Great Emperor fathers, having passed the Divine King Tribulation multiple times.
But similarly, this Battle Saint King, who had relied on himself to step by step reach the level of a peerless Divine King, had also rapidly improved.
Now, his strength was so powerful that it was not the least bit inferior to a Quasi-Monarch like the Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch; he could fight head-on.
Looking back suddenly, the distance between them was even greater than in the past.
Ye Chen, from a distance, nodded and smiled towards Di Wushuang, Di Wuming, the Angel Imperial Son, Shen Rong, Ye Cangqiong, the Nanhuang Imperial Maiden, the Xiao Clan Imperial Son, the Xia Clan Imperial Son, and the other Ten Great Imperial Sons and Daughters.
The ten also responded with complex yet pleasantly surprised expressions.
Having parted for over a dozen years, just as they were about to say something, Ye Chen's Seven Supreme Geniuses had already appeared. Remembering the urgency at the Human Pass fortress, he said: "Everyone, now is not the time for catching up. The situation at the Human Pass fortress is critical. You should proceed there first. Follow this Quasi-Monarch level puppet Giant God Soldier I refined; go together."
As he spoke, learning that the Dark Heaven Giant God Soldier was the Quasi-Monarch puppet refined by Ye Chen, the Ten Great Imperial Sons and Daughters were terrified. No wonder it was so powerful. But now, carefully observing the Dark Heaven Giant God Soldier, they saw some familiar contours. At last, they understood why the Dark Heaven Giant God Soldier always looked so familiar—it was actually the alien Dark Heaven Emperor Clan Quasi-Monarch from the war between the two races years ago. They never expected Ye Chen to have refined it into a puppet.
They sighed. In seventeen years, Ye Chen's progress was far beyond theirs.
Fortunately, Ye Chen was a member of the human race.
*Whoosh—*
The Dark Heaven Giant God Soldier rushed over, bringing along the Seven Supreme Geniuses under his command, and arrived before the Ten Great Imperial Sons and Daughters of Humanity. A gust of fierce wind directly enveloped them, transforming into a pitch-black stream of light that shot like lightning towards the Human Pass fortress to support the human army.
The Heavenly Roc Demon Monarch did not stop them, nor was he willing to face the Dark Heaven Giant God Soldier, this Quasi-Monarch level immortal puppet, again.
He looked down from above at Ye Chen, revealing a gloomy expression: "Battle Saint King, although I don't know why you have improved so much in these dozen-plus years, do you truly think that with just this, you can deal with This Monarch? Let me tell you, the attack just now was only twenty to thirty percent of This Monarch's strength."
As he spoke, wave after wave of aura far exceeding his previous level wantonly bloomed from his body, as if a heaven-devouring giant beast was awakening, capable of wantonly devouring the nine heavens and ten earths.
