Not long after, the powerful experts from the various alien imperial clans and king clans appeared in force. Seeing Di Wentian on the scene, covered in blood with only the halo of the Tenth Heaven circling him and his aura feeble, they hurriedly rushed over.
Especially the experts from Di Wentian's own imperial clan stepped forward with concern, asking, "Young Ancestor, are you alright?"
Di Wentian coughed up large mouthfuls of blood. Anyone could see his injuries were severe, but the fact that he was the only one left inevitably aroused some suspicion.
Why had everyone else been slaughtered, leaving only Di Wentian alive?
Although his injuries were severe—they could even tell his origin had been damaged—it could very well be an act.
Di Wentian pointed towards the deepest part of the Burial Immortal Realm. "Hurry and pursue him! He fled to the deepest part of the Burial Immortal Realm, trying to enter another world."
"What?!"
Everyone's expressions changed. Only the absolute upper echelons of the imperial clans knew what lay on the other side of the Burial Immortal Realm. Even the alien race dared not venture there lightly.
"Who is he?"
"The Battle Saint King!"
Boom—
The moment that name was uttered, all the alien powerhouses felt as if struck by lightning.
"What?!"
"The Battle Saint King!"
"He actually dares to venture deep into our Alien Ancient Universe?"
"And how did he even enter our Ancient Universe?"
The experts from the various imperial and king clans all looked grim, quickly realizing why all the alien prodigies had been slaughtered. It was the Battle Saint King's doing.
Because he was absolutely comparable to a Heaven-Defying Quasi-Monarch level existence, as evidenced by his feats in the Tenth Emperor Pass.
As for everything within the Sealed Boundary Universe, he had slain Ye Cancan. Due to the Sealed Boundary Universe's blockade, the alien race was unaware that Ye Cancan had been killed by Ye Chen.
They also understood why the Ancient Monarchs' attempts to intervene had been blocked. Everyone knew the Battle Saint King cultivated the Chaos Dao, capable of shielding heavenly secrets.
The phrase seen during the Ancient Monarch's time reversal earlier—
"Me? The Ancient Elephant Imperial Clan's prodigy, Gu Taixu!"—was likely deliberately released by the Battle Saint King to cause interference.
"Damnable Battle Saint King!"
The Ancient Elephant Imperial Clan experts were furious. Their clan had almost been framed for this.
"Your Highness Di Wentian, why are all the other Imperial Sons and Daughters gone, yet you remain unharmed?"
At this moment, an imperial clan expert voiced his suspicion. All the Imperial Sons and Daughters were dead, so why was Di Wentian not? Moreover, Di Wentian was the son of Qingtian Dadi, the Tenth Heaven who had betrayed and joined the Alien Ancient Universe.
Di Wentian gave a bitter smile and took out a shattered, dull battle armor. "If not for the protection of this Sovereign-level defensive treasure just now, and your timely arrival, I would probably have been killed."
Everyone was shocked. The shattering of a Sovereign-level defensive treasure was enough proof of the opponent's terrifying power.
But that imperial clan expert still spoke coldly, "Your Highness Di Wentian, why is it that the other Imperial Sons and Daughters, who also possessed supreme treasures, didn't even have time to use them, while you alone succeeded?"
Di Wentian's gaze turned icy. "Polu Guyé, are you doubting this Imperial Son?"
"I dare not. I am merely curious. Your Highness Di Wentian and His Highness the Six Paths Imperial Son possess similar strength, both at the Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch level. Why did the Battle Saint King suppress His Highness the Six Paths Imperial Son but not you? I am simply puzzled," said the Polu Imperial Clan's Quasi-Monarch, claiming curiosity but in truth suspecting Di Wentian's assistance.
"Hmph!"
Di Wentian's aura instantly surged to its peak. With the Ten Heavens empowering him, the imposing might of a Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch billowed forth. Even covered in blood, he still resembled an awe-inspiring, seemingly undefeatable peerless War God, imposing a terrifying pressure on all present except the five Ancient Monarchs.
"Polu Guyé, this Imperial Son hopes you understand one thing. Since the previous epoch, my father and I have been people of this Chaos Ancient Universe, not of that Sealed Boundary Universe. This Imperial Son has no reason to risk helping a declining, soon-to-be-destroyed Sealed Boundary Universe. If you insist on asking why the Battle Saint King didn't kill me, it can only mean one thing: this Imperial Son is stronger than those trash."
Boom—
As if an entire starry sky were pressing down, the Polu Imperial Clan's Quasi-Monarch, Polu Guyé, was forced down violently. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his body and spirit cracking, nearly exploding on the spot.
All the experts from the various imperial and king clans present were awed, their expressions turning solemn with respect.
Now, not only did they not doubt Di Wentian, they acknowledged him even more.
In the Alien Ancient Universe, the principle of 'the strong are respected' was far more pronounced than in other Chaos Ancient Universes.
Di Wentian's strength was displayed for all to see—the terrifying power of a Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch. And indeed, as he said, he had no reason to risk himself for a Sealed Boundary Universe on the verge of destruction.
In their eyes, the Sealed Boundary Universe was so weak. Before the immensely powerful Alien Ancient Universe, its extinction was merely a matter of time.
An alien Sovereign glanced at Polu Guyé and snorted coldly, "Polu Guyé, I hope you understand that an 'Imperial' character must not be insulted, and the strongest Imperial Son even more so!"
Blood continuously seeped from Polu Guyé's mouth. He nodded frantically in fear, not daring to resist.
Di Wentian snorted coldly. "Good that you know. The Battle Saint King hasn't been gone for long. If you pursue now, there's still some hope of catching up. So, all of you, hurry."
"Agreed!"
"Your Highness Wentian, take care."
The experts from the various imperial and king clans charged towards the deepest part of the Burial Immortal Realm, their speed increasing significantly because they, far more than anyone else, knew what lay on the other side of the Burial Immortal Realm.
The Primordial Immortal World!
A Chaos Ancient Universe no weaker than the Alien Ancient Universe, even stronger than the Sealed Boundary Universe of old.
There, not even the Ancient Emperors of the alien race dared to venture lightly.
At the same time, Ye Chen was rushing towards the deepest part of the Burial Immortal Realm as if chasing stars and the moon. The deeper he went, the more he felt an almost impenetrable darkness enveloping heaven and earth. Everything grew dim; even a Quasi-Monarch's vision couldn't see too far.
But the special summoning sensation deep within his Soul grew even more intense, trembling violently almost every moment.
Suddenly, boundless darkness appeared ahead.
Ye Chen immediately halted, frowning as he looked forward. It was less like endless darkness and more like another Immortal Heavenly Pass, standing tall in the deepest part of the Burial Immortal Realm, blotting out the sky and sun. The pitch-black city pass was like a black curtain covering the earth, impossible to see through.
A Heavenly Pass, another Heavenly Pass!
Could this be the Heavenly Pass leading back to the Sealed Boundary Universe?
No, the other side of this Heavenly Pass was most likely the Primordial Immortal World!
The summoning from the depths of his Soul was incredibly intense. He could feel that within or beyond this Heavenly Pass was the existence that summoned his Soul so powerfully.
"What exactly is it?"
Ye Chen's gaze sharpened. The power of an Eternal Quasi-Monarch manifested as he pointed out with the Chaos Severing Heaven Finger, heavily striking the Immortal Heavenly Pass. Boundless Chaos light exploded forth, accompanied by burning Myriad Dao rules, rolling into view.
Boom—
His ultimate combat power was fully unleashed. The supreme strength of an Eternal Quasi-Monarch struck the Immortal Heavenly Pass. This single finger was enough to annihilate a Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch.
The entire Burial Immortal Realm was shaken, trembling for billions of miles outward, with boundless radiance blooming.
Finally, the pitch-black Immortal Heavenly Pass was blasted open.
However, no brilliant passage appeared. Within the ancient heavenly gate, only a shifting darkness could be seen, impenetrable.
Whoosh—
Silently, a figure appeared on the Immortal Heavenly Pass, tall and majestic.
