"This—"
Many powerhouses in the Sacred Emperor Domain were startled. Such methods were truly astonishing; even an ordinary Quasi-Monarch would find it absolutely difficult to achieve this.
"Who is he?"
A man who seemed to be the leader spoke. His imposing figure was awe-inspiring, his aura astonishing. Wearing a divine crown and clad in divine robes, he looked at Ye Chen in the Bloody Battlefield, his eyes shining brilliantly as they shot out two blazing rays of light containing numerous Great Dao laws.
Clearly, this was a supremely powerful figure of heroic and martial prowess.
A powerhouse from the Sacred Emperor Domain recognized Ye Chen's identity and said in surprise, "Lord Heavenly Martial, he is the Battle Saint King."
"The Battle Saint King?" Heavenly Martial Great Monarch looked at Ye Chen, a terrifying fighting intent suddenly arising from his body and gradually spreading. "I've heard that the Battle Saint King's combat power is no less than that of an Ancient Monarch. It's even said that in the Ancient Emperor Domain, he suppressed and killed that First Heavenly Layer Sovereign, Shi Jun. I wonder if that's true or false."
Beside him, that Sacred Emperor Domain powerhouse said respectfully, "Lord Heavenly Martial, it is indeed true. The Battle Saint King is an Eternal Quasi-Monarch level existence. It's even heard that not long ago, five Sovereigns and eight Great Perfection Quasi-Monarchs infiltrated the Flame Emperor City to assassinate the Battle Saint King, but all ended in failure. This subordinate suggests immediately sending a message to the Sovereign Commander, requesting the Sovereign to personally take action and slay this individual."
Regarding their hatred for Ye Chen, the alien races had long since completely let loose, even issuing a terrifying bounty just to obtain Ye Chen's head.
"Heh, killing a mere Battle Saint King—even if it requires a true Ancient Monarch to take action, this Monarch is sufficient." Heavenly Martial Great Monarch revealed a faint smile. Although he was not an Ancient Monarch, he was a Heaven-Defying Quasi-Monarch, and moreover, ranked tenth on the Epoch Quasi-Monarch Ranking.
It must be known that the top thirty-three on the Epoch Quasi-Monarch Ranking were, without exception, all Heaven-Defying Quasi-Monarch level existences.
As fellow Heaven-Defying Quasi-Monarchs, their foundations were almost completely identical. In a direct confrontation, neither could gain much of an upper hand, nor could they kill each other.
But being able to rank high on the Epoch Quasi-Monarch Ranking proved that, under the same basic conditions, the trump cards one possessed far surpassed those of other Quasi-Monarchs.
Especially Heavenly Martial Great Monarch, ranked tenth on the Epoch Quasi-Monarch Ranking. The means he possessed naturally sufficed to prove his strength.
"But—" That Sacred Emperor Domain powerhouse had just wanted to speak, but Heavenly Martial Great Monarch swept a cold glance his way, causing him to immediately shut his mouth, not daring to say more.
Joking aside, who would dare provoke the anger of a Heaven-Defying Quasi-Monarch?
Whoosh—
Heavenly Martial Great Monarch stepped forward, actively walking towards the Bloody Battlefield, looking at Ye Chen as if looking at prey, filled with fervor.
It must be known how rich the bounty on the Battle Saint King was. The reward points alone reached a staggering ten billion, no less than that for an ordinary Ancient Monarch.
Ye Chen stepped deeper into the Bloody Battlefield. Although he had annihilated one batch of obsessions, another batch derived, endless and continuous, attacking Ye Chen and hindering his advance.
Ye Chen tirelessly acted again and again. Later, several terrifying puppets directly appeared beside him, combined with the Six Paths Battle Formation, no less than true Great Perfection Quasi-Monarchs, sufficient to deal with these obsessions.
After all, the strongest of these obsessions were only comparable to late-stage Quasi-Monarchs.
"Primordial Ancestor!"
Within the Bloody Battlefield, a furious roar abruptly sounded, resounding through the myriad heavens and ancient times, echoing above the entire ancient path, causing many people's ears to buzz.
Whether from the Flame Emperor Domain or the Sacred Emperor Domain, powerhouses all looked at the Bloody Battlefield in shock.
That roar seemed to have traversed countless ancient epochs before roaring out, carrying endless fury.
Ye Chen's heart trembled.
Primordial Ancestor, it was the Primordial Ancestor again!
That greatest hidden hand of the ancient times.
Could he be the culprit who caused the ancient Emperor to fall here?
Ye Chen's expression gradually turned grave. If this involved the Primordial Ancestor, then it was much more terrifying.
The higher one's cultivation, the deeper one's understanding of the Primordial Ancestor, and the more one knew of the Primordial Ancestor's fearsomeness.
Back then, the Eight Desolates Ancient Universe attacked the Primordial Immortal Realm because of the Primordial Ancestor, ultimately perishing, and the entire Chaos Ancient Universe eventually collapsed.
Ye Chen continued deeper into the Bloody Battlefield. The obsessions here grew more numerous and more powerful. He even encountered several terrifying obsessions at the Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch level, but under his actions, they all turned to dust.
Finally, he arrived and stopped at a place less than a hundred li from the very center of the Bloody Battlefield.
It wasn't that he didn't want to enter, but the deeper one went, the more terrifying the Supreme Resentment and pressure that spread out became.
He could see that at the very center of the Bloody Battlefield lay a corpse, lying there, with extremely intense baleful energy continuously spreading out. The pressure it created was so powerful that even an Ancient Monarch would feel their heart palpitate.
Ye Chen gazed towards the central area, trying to clearly see the true appearance of the corpse. But that corpse was too sinister and evil. What it emitted was no longer simple Supreme Resentment, but the far more terrifying Supreme Corpse Malice.
This Supreme Corpse Malice was countless times more terrifying than Supreme Resentment.
At close range, Ye Chen dared say even his Chaos Saint Body couldn't withstand it; it would be corroded alive by the Supreme Corpse Malice, vanishing into nothingness.
The pervading Supreme Corpse Malice made it difficult for his Heaven's Eye to truly see clearly.
However, he could tell that the Supreme One's death was extremely miserable. Not only was he not buried in a Supreme Ancient Coffin like the Divine Nine-Layered Coffin, unable to rest in peace underground, but he also died without a whole body, torn apart and dismembered. Half of his Emperor body was ripped open, his left arm broken off, leaving only one section; the other section was nowhere to be found.
His head was disheveled, his left eye pierced through by a Supreme arrow.
On top of his head, half of a broken sword was embedded, from top to bottom.
Even in death, his eyes remained wide open, unable to rest in peace!
Ye Chen felt his hair stand on end.
It could be said this scene was too heart-trembling.
This Supreme One had died a miserable death on the spot.
It was hard to imagine that a lofty ancient Emperor Supreme One, so powerful, sharing the lifespan of the sun and moon, boundless in years—such a peerless Supreme One could die so miserably.
Ye Chen believed that even if another Supreme One had killed this Supreme One, they wouldn't have let him die so miserably on the spot. Even if they were enemies, they would most likely have buried him, not leaving him without a burial place.
There must be hidden circumstances unknown to others.
But who was the one who acted?
The Primordial Ancestor?
Tap, tap, tap—
The sound of footsteps abruptly rang out. Ye Chen turned around to see another figure appearing in the Bloody Battlefield.
"Heavenly Martial Great Monarch?" Ye Chen recognized him. He knew everyone listed on the Epoch Quasi-Monarch Ranking.
Before him was precisely the tenth-ranked Heavenly Martial Great Monarch, who not long ago was ranked ninth, only because Ye Chen's sudden emergence, seizing first place, had pushed everyone else's ranking down by one.
"Battle Saint King." Heavenly Martial Great Monarch also looked at Ye Chen, filled with fervor. Within his robust and powerful body, a terrifying fighting intent was spreading.
