"Supreme Inheritance?"
Upon hearing this, the thirteen Great Powers of the Doumen World were filled with confusion.
They exchanged glances.
One of the Doumen Great Powers spoke: "Esteemed guest, we do not understand this 'Supreme Inheritance' you speak of."
Even the Ancient Desolate Dragon was full of bewilderment.
As for those below the Great Power level, it was even more so; they were completely in the dark.
Ye Chen took in everyone's expressions, letting out a surprised sound.
If it were others, it might be understandable, but these Great Powers were super-powerful beings standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid in the Weiyang Great World. The Ancient Desolate Dragon had roamed the world for tens of thousands of years and should have known many secrets.
As for the thirteen Great Powers, they were the true highest echelon of Doumen, hailed as the number one intelligence organization in the Weiyang Great World.
With Doumen's terrifying intelligence network spread across the nine continents, if there were any information related to a Supreme Inheritance in the Weiyang Great World, it would be impossible for them not to know.
However, their evident confusion regarding the Supreme Inheritance—with Ye Chen's discerning eye, he could naturally tell it wasn't feigned; they were genuinely puzzled.
He even suspected that they might not even know what realm a "Supreme One" represented.
"Do you know what a Supreme One is?" Ye Chen inquired.
Both the thirteen Great Powers of the Doumen World and the Ancient Desolate Dragon wore blank expressions, clearly unaware.
At this moment, Ye Chen felt even more perplexed.
As a Great World capable of giving birth to Divine King realm existences, even if it was illusory, it shouldn't be that the concept of a Supreme One wasn't even widespread.
"Could it be that the Supreme Inheritance truly isn't in this Weiyang Great World?" Ye Chen frowned slightly but didn't jump to conclusions immediately. Their ignorance didn't mean that an Ancient Divine King like the Doumen Divine King wouldn't know.
A Divine King was, after all, the most peak-level existence in this Weiyang Great World and should know more.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Chen said, "In that case, I wish to request an audience with the Doumen Divine King."
The Doumen Great Powers immediately frowned, displeased. "Apologies, esteemed guest. Our Divine King Ancestor is currently in seclusion and cannot be disturbed."
Ye Chen said, "In that case, approximately how long until your Divine King Ancestor emerges from seclusion?"
"At most tens of thousands of years, at least over a thousand. The Divine King Ancestor has been in seclusion for three thousand years already. However, there is no definite time for his seclusion; it might require even longer."
The implication also carried a hint of urging the guest to leave.
Ye Chen frowned. He hadn't even cultivated for a thousand years yet. Waiting for several thousand years was obviously impossible. He said, "Although this may seem unreasonable, there are some matters that perhaps only the Doumen Divine King can answer. Please trouble him to emerge from seclusion. I can pay a certain price."
He wasn't being unreasonable, but time was indeed somewhat pressing, and he couldn't afford to wait thousands of years, wasting them here.
The Doumen Great Power shook his head without hesitation, refusing outright. "Apologies. The Divine King Ancestor is in seclusion; we absolutely dare not disturb him."
What a joke. The Divine King Ancestor was the supreme, unparalleled existence of Doumen. How could he be disturbed?
Moreover, they were completely unfamiliar with Ye Chen. How could they possibly disturb the Divine King Ancestor's seclusion for the sake of a mere stranger? That would be a grave sin, something they absolutely could not bear.
Ye Chen spoke again, "Everyone, I am truly somewhat pressed for time. Please make an exception and notify him."
Behind him, the Ancient Desolate Dragon, towering like an iron pagoda, swept a glance over the Doumen Great Powers and sneered coldly, "I advise you to summon the Doumen Divine King immediately. Otherwise, the consequences are something even your Doumen might not be able to bear lightly."
A super-existence of at least Ancient Divine King level had come to visit and was being blocked here. Once angered, what could Doumen do? Even with thirteen Great Powers, what could they do? The heavens and earth would still be torn asunder.
Among the Doumen Great Powers, one with snow-white eyebrows, known in the world as the White Eyebrow Great Power—also a veteran among the thirteen Doumen Great Powers—snorted coldly, "In this Weiyang Great World, there truly isn't any consequence that our 'Doumen' cannot bear. However, you two should carefully consider this: our 'Doumen' Divine King Ancestor is not only an Ancient Divine King but not an ordinary one at that. The wrath of a Divine King is not something you can bear. Even a Great Power would have to pay a tremendous price."
"In that case, I shall have to properly seek guidance," Ye Chen said.
"Hmph!"
Instantly, the thirteen Great Powers of Doumen shot into the sky one after another.
The White Eyebrow Great Power cupped his fists toward Ye Chen and said coldly, "Since you are so insistent, allow me, White Eyebrow, to exchange a move or two with you."
But Ye Chen extended a single finger and gently shook it.
"Just you?"
"That's not enough. You alone are not enough. Since you wish to block me, and want to block me one by one, why trouble yourselves? All thirteen of you, come at me together!"
As soon as the words fell, he beckoned toward the thirteen Doumen Great Powers.
The White Eyebrow Great Power and the other twelve instantly narrowed their pupils, never expecting him to be so arrogant as to challenge all thirteen of them alone.
Even the Ancient Desolate Dragon couldn't help but swallow hard. Facing thirteen super-powerful beings at the Great Power level, especially among them were Half-Step Divine Kings not much weaker than himself, in the entire Weiyang Great World, how many dared to claim they could fight one against thirteen?
At the very least, he, the Ancient Desolate Dragon, would have to carefully weigh the odds several times over.
But Ye Chen had no fear. This was a true peerless powerhouse.
"Very well. Since you insist, don't blame Doumen for bullying the few with the many," the thirteen Doumen Great Powers were also angered. Since the other party insisted on seeking death, they were naturally happy to send him on his way.
The White Eyebrow Great Power struck first.
Boom—
Across the entire heavens, boundless power of heaven and earth surged violently. The heavens and earth seemed to collapse as endless strange phenomena manifested, as if teetering on the brink of apocalypse.
Two of the Doumen Great Powers acted, protecting the Heavenly Continent and the many Doumen powerhouses from being affected.
"Heh!"
The White Eyebrow Great Power let out a loud shout. Although his eyebrows were as white as snow, he did not appear old. On the contrary, he looked quite young, as if in his early thirties, with a face like jade—right at the peak stage of life. Even his blood and qi were exceptionally vigorous, and his stature was tall and slender.
His left hand formed a fist, his right a palm. As fist and palm overlapped, infinite power spontaneously manifested between heaven and earth.
His left fist extended, transforming into a blazing sun with a diameter of a full ten thousand li, radiating extreme, scorching light that seemed capable of incinerating everything to ashes.
His right palm transformed into a black hole—a dark moon, also ten thousand li in diameter. Its pale moonlight shone forth, carrying an ultimate, terrifying profound cold force, bone-chillingly icy, capable of freezing everything solid.
One Yin, one Yang, each occupying half of the heavens, as if dividing the vast sky spanning tens of thousands of li in radius into two halves, with only the violent Yin-Yang power at play.
One incinerated everything!
The other froze everything solid!
This was the White Eyebrow Great Power, simultaneously cultivating the Yin-Yang Great Dao with extraordinary attainment, having reached a remarkably high level.
