Saint Ancient Emperor's expression changed, finally realizing the extraordinary nature of the two figures before him.
Even though they were merely projections formed from a mouthful of Primordial Chaos essence, with far less endurance than true super Sovereigns, they were still not to be underestimated.
Yet now, with a single strike, they had shattered three of his Dao bodies. This level of strength was, at the very least, that of a peak Eighth Heaven Sovereign, perhaps even Ninth Heaven, Tenth Heaven, or even...
He felt a chill of dread, not daring to imagine further.
"I just heard you say you were going to send the two of us to the afterlife."
Xiuluo Emperor bared his teeth in a smile, one that was particularly sinister and terrifying.
At this moment, the two of them simultaneously began to stride forward.
With each step they took, they traversed an unknown number of tens of thousands of li.
Simultaneously, the imposing might emanating from their bodies also rose steadily, soon reaching a majestic height, as if Ancient Emperors were rising, surpassing Ancient Sovereigns.
Boom—
Finally, the two Emperor auras erupted abruptly, sweeping through the endless spatial turbulence, overwhelming all directions.
Saint Ancient Emperor's face completely paled!
"Emperors! Both of you are actually Emperors!"
No wonder his expression changed, for no one could have ever imagined that within the Wei Yang Great World, two Emperors were still hidden, and they were clearly standing on Battle Saint King's side, enough to completely overturn the situation.
"Correct, you do have some discernment," Xiuluo Emperor said coldly.
Boom—
Boom—
As his words fell, the two great Emperors moved like thunder. In less than the blink of an eye, they descended before Saint Ancient Emperor.
Amidst earth-shattering roars that shook the endless spatial turbulence, affecting who knows how many billions of li, and under the combined assault of the three Emperor-level existences—including the Great Emperor's reincarnation body—Saint Ancient Emperor's figure was sent flying backward. He even crashed into three illusory great worlds in the distant sky, shattering them upon impact, blood spraying from his mouth.
Clearly, under the terrifying onslaught of the three Emperors, Saint Ancient Emperor had been wounded in the very first exchange.
However, as the son of the Strongest Emperor, Saint Ancient Emperor possessed treasures no less formidable than those of a true Ancient Emperor Supreme One. Protected by an Emperor-level immortal battle armor, the injuries he sustained were not too severe.
He stood up again, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. His aura remained at its peak, powerful and undiminished. Instead of attacking immediately, he spoke solemnly to the two Emperors: "Fellow Daoists, I do not know what reward that little beast Battle Saint King has offered you to make you willing to act. But I can give you double the price. Moreover, my father is the Strongest Emperor. I hope you understand this point."
Threats and inducements!
He could offer double the reward, and his father was the Strongest Emperor, implicitly stating everything: if they dared to act, it would be equivalent to provoking a Strongest Emperor, something not even Emperors could afford to offend.
Indeed, both Tonggu Emperor and Xiuluo Emperor showed slight hesitation, their steps pausing momentarily.
Ye Chen also smiled and said, "Seniors, there is no need for concern. It is true his father is a Strongest Emperor, and belongs to the alien race's Ancient Universe. But please do not be wary, for our side also has a Strongest Emperor, and Senior Flame Emperor shares an extremely close relationship with me."
"One thing I can tell you two Seniors is that Senior Flame Emperor is extremely formidable. When he returned, he dared to charge into the very center of the alien race's Ancient Universe, directly slaying one of their Ancient Great Emperors. He even joined forces with several Immortal Kings to pressure the alien race's Ancient Universe."
"Decades ago, the Strongest Emperor Saint sent five Ancient Sovereigns to assassinate me, right in Flame Emperor City. After Senior Flame Emperor learned of this, he directly charged into the Saint Emperor Domain, nearly blasting a Supreme One to death. Yet the Strongest Emperor Saint did not dare to attack Senior Flame Emperor, showing wariness and retreating in forbearance."
"Therefore, even if the Strongest Emperor Saint dares to act, he must still be wary of Flame Emperor."
"Moreover, our side has several other Strongest Emperors backing us. Saint Ancient Emperor is merely a son. Unless absolutely forced to, the Strongest Emperor Saint would not dare to attack our Flame Emperor Domain faction."
These few words gave the two Emperors immense confidence.
The Strongest Emperor Flame Emperor was Ye Chen's close friend, and there were other Strongest Emperors supporting them from behind.
More importantly, the fall of the Nine Yin Supreme One was also related to the alien race.
This also meant the two Emperors could never stand on Saint Ancient Emperor's side.
Tonggu Emperor was mature and steady, but Xiuluo Emperor was originally a generation's great menace, peerlessly domineering, valuing slaughter above all, utterly fearless. He laughed heartily: "Excellent! I've long been displeased with these alien scum who only dare to gang up. Back in the previous Era Epoch, when our Emperor Domain opened the Supreme Domain War against theirs, I slew twelve Ancient Sovereigns in a row. An alien Supreme One nearly took action to kill me then. Today is just as good—I'll slay an Emperor's son of an alien Strongest Emperor, make these alien scum feel the pain."
Boom—
Xiuluo Emperor stepped forward and attacked directly, boundless bloody light erupting as the Twelve Heavenly Palace Tower blasted forth.
This Emperor's weapon, which had long accompanied Xiuluo Emperor's ascension to Emperor and undergone transformation, now had its might fully revived, far surpassing its power when dealing with Ye Chen and Di Yongheng by who knows how many times.
Visible to the naked eye, a full several million Sovereign-level rules manifested—an absolute, great terror.
The endless spatial turbulence seemed on the verge of being shattered, experiencing a massive quake.
Saint Ancient Emperor hadn't expected Xiuluo Emperor to attack so thunderously, caught completely off guard. His figure was sent flying backward, blood blossoming from his body.
In just one exchange, Saint Ancient Emperor was bleeding.
Although the injury wasn't major, it was enough to prove Xiuluo Emperor's boundless imposing might. He truly deserved to be considered one of the few ultimate great enemies on Wuxiang Sovereign's ultimate ancient path back in the day, indeed ferocious enough.
Blood trickled from the corner of Saint Ancient Emperor's mouth as he glared furiously at Xiuluo Emperor. He fully revived his power and roared: "Good, very good! You dare attack this Emperor. Today, even if Flame Emperor protects you, you will undoubtedly die."
Just as he was about to strike, Tonggu Emperor appeared soundlessly behind him. A cold voice echoed: "How exactly will you make my brother die without a doubt?"
Boom—
Tonggu Emperor attacked. He was a late bloomer; upon stepping into the Emperor realm, he could absolutely be called a peerless powerhouse.
A dark, unremarkable-looking wine gourd flew from his hand. With a single exhale, Primordial Chaos light actually blossomed forth—thousands upon thousands of strands, each refined into the most terrifying slaughter light.
Ten thousand layers of Emperor slaughter light descended. What kind of imposing might was this? It directly sent Saint Ancient Emperor flying sideways, more Emperor's blood splattering from his body.
Saint Ancient Emperor stabilized his figure, touching his neck where a huge wound nearly separated his head from his body, copious amounts of blood spraying out.
He was furious, but also stifled with resentment, because this Tonggu Emperor was even more terrifying than Xiuluo Emperor. His attacks were soundless, giving him no chance to defend.
If not for his own extraordinary strength, the outcome would absolutely have been death and Dao dissipation.
"Ah—"
Saint Ancient Emperor roared, summoning a Supreme Emperor weapon. Infinite Supreme Emperor might erupted, as if an Ancient Emperor Supreme One had descended. Radiant light shone for billions of li, nearly illuminating the endless spatial turbulence completely.
