"Chaos!"
Ye Chen's eyes widened. The Taichu Emperor actually also grasped Chaos Dao techniques.
However, considering that his father, Tai Sheng Huang, was the only supreme existence throughout history who had nearly cultivated the Chaos Great Dao to perfection, it wasn't surprising. As his son, it was only natural for the Taichu Emperor to master some Chaos techniques.
Under the incineration of the myriad Daos, even the Profound Void Emperor, who had burned his form and spirit to gain greater power, was briefly suppressed, giving rise to a sense of terror.
"Burn, Monarch, become my nourishment, break these shackles, transcend the Monarch realm!"
The Taichu Emperor's voice was like forbidden heavenly thunder, shaking heaven and earth.
At this moment, the Taichu Cauldron slowly transformed back into its original human form. The Taichu Emperor stood majestic and peerless, resembling a youth in his early twenties, with black hair cascading down. His entire body was wreathed in dazzling light, even his hair strands exuded a powerful radiance.
Every inch of his flesh seemed to contain swirling suns, so brilliant they were impossible to look at directly.
Everyone could sense the Taichu Emperor's aura rapidly climbing, level by level.
The aura of the Profound Void Emperor within him grew increasingly feeble, just as he had said, transformed into nourishment, constantly nourishing his body.
Boom—
Finally, at a certain moment, the Taichu Emperor's aura erupted completely.
From the crown of his head, a brilliant beam of light shot into the sky, filled with an extremely dense Emperor Dao radiance. It pierced into the highest reaches of the heavens, even tearing through theblockade of the Four Emperor Traces and shooting into the sky above the Saint Prison Domain Battlefield.
Instantly, an unparalleled sea of tribulation light and thunder descended.
That was the Emperor Tribulation!
The Taichu Emperor was officially charging through the barrier to the Ancient Emperor Supreme One realm!
All eyes were upon him!
Whether in the Four Emperor Traces or the Saint Prison Domain Battlefield, everyone looked over, focusing on the Taichu Emperor's charge towards the Supreme One realm.
Worried that the Emperor Tribulation's descent would cause massive impact, the Taichu Emperor directly soared upwards, leaving the Four Emperor Traces and appearing outside the Saint Prison Domain Battlefield, arriving at the lofty, unreachable heavens to contend with the vast Emperor Tribulation.
Within the endless spatial turbulence of the Four Emperor Traces, unseen by anyone, four Supreme Emperor shadows flickered faintly in the darkness, observing everything.
One of them was none other than the Wufa Supreme One. His undying obsession pierced through the illusions, watching the scene of the Taichu Emperor undergoing tribulation, and said solemnly, "Now it's up to him."
"Indeed!"
Beside him, the undying obsession of the Jiuyin Supreme One also spoke.
In the endless spatial turbulence, everyone raised their heads. Through the torn opening, they could only see boundless tribulation light surging and sinking, inundating who knew how many tens of thousands of miles. It was terrifying enough to collapse a Supreme One's great world, truly unimaginable.
And this was outside the Four Emperor Traces, on the Saint Prison Domain Battlefield. Just the fluctuations of the tribulation light transmitted over made even Ancient Monarchs feel a terrifying sense of life-threatening danger. The slightest touch would likely endanger their lives.
On the Saint Prison Domain Battlefield, the sky of the entire vast domain battlefield was submerged by an endless sea of Emperor Tribulation thunder. Whether it was the originally remaining stars or those later moved by the two great powers, under the Emperor Tribulation, they instantly turned into vast dust, ceasing to exist entirely.
The Emperor Halls of the two factions were naturally moved away immediately to avoid being affected.
The Emperor Tribulation was truly vast and boundless, far surpassing any great tribulation Ye Chen had undergone in the past by an immeasurable degree. It was excessively expansive; even the entire Saint Prison Domain Battlefield might not be able to fully contain all of the Emperor Tribulation.
After all, this was only the initial Emperor Tribulation. As time passed, the tribulation would grow stronger and more magnificent.
Having undergone tribulation to prove his Dao and transformed the Profound Void Emperor into his own nourishment, the Taichu Emperor was unprecedentedly powerful, his aura overwhelmingly abundant. Billions of strands of Primordial Light blazed brilliantly, like countless suns descending to encircle him, making him the sole existence between heaven and earth.
High in the unreachable heavens, within the Emperor Tribulation, terrifying Dao weapons and artifacts evolved—all Supreme Emperor's weapons or immortal weapons, imbued with genuine Supreme Emperor might and immortal might. They crashed down as if true Supreme Emperor's weapons and immortal weapons had revived, launching fierce assaults.
Naturally, at this stage, the Taichu Emperor stood unafraid. He could barely be considered a Supreme One now. He summoned his own Dao-proving weapon, erupting with power to clash with them, exploding with infinite destructive might.
During the collisions, the battle weapons naturally couldn't remain unscathed; they cracked and were even shattered into several pieces.
But Dao weapons possessed spirit. Within the Emperor Tribulation, they could quickly recover. Moreover, when blasting apart those Supreme Emperor's weapons and immortal weapons, they could also absorb corresponding Emperor Tribulation imprints, promoting the evolution of the Dao weapons into true Supreme Emperor's weapons.
The Taichu Emperor even devoured the essence within the Emperor Tribulation, aiding the transformation of his form and spirit as he stepped towards the Supreme One realm.
At this time, the four Emperors had already suppressed the Saint Ancient Emperor, the Zushan Emperor, and the Dark Lord Emperor. While the Profound Void Emperor was busy exterminating many experts of the Holy Emperor Domain faction, he also kept an eye on the Taichu Emperor proving his Dao to become a Supreme One.
After all, when a Monarch proved his Dao to become a Supreme One, the chance was generally only twenty percent.
Whether one could truly succeed depended solely on oneself.
For them, witnessing the Taichu Emperor undergo tribulation and prove his Dao to become a Supreme One was undoubtedly a rare and precious opportunity, offering great reference value for their own future attempts to prove the Dao and become Supreme Ones.
The Emperor Tribulation was boundless and terrifying beyond measure. The slightest bit was enough to reduce ordinary Ancient Monarchs to dust.
Only Monarchs could withstand it and contend for that sliver of opportunity to prove their Dao and become Supreme Ones.
"Proving his Dao to become a Supreme One!"
The Saint Ancient Emperor's expression darkened, his fists clenched tightly.
As fellow strongest Emperor's offspring, this Taichu Emperor had become a Monarch much later than him, yet was now attempting to charge through the Supreme One barrier faster. Moreover, with a Monarch as nourishment, he truly had hope of successfully proving his Dao to become a Supreme One.
He almost roared in fury.
First, he was jointly suppressed by the experts of the Flame Emperor Domain faction and used as a human-shaped weapon by the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. Now, he was forced to watch helplessly as another strongest Emperor's offspring, the Taichu Emperor, proved his Dao to become a Supreme One. Blow after blow struck him.
This filled him with immense unwillingness.
He was an Emperor's son, not inferior to anyone, unwilling to be surpassed and have someone else become a Supreme One first.
But there was nothing he could do. This Taichu Emperor indeed possessed great determination, daring to charge through the Supreme One barrier before completely refining the Profound Void Emperor, which also carried great risk of perishing.
"What? Unwilling to watch the Taichu Emperor prove his Dao and become a Supreme One before you? As fellow strongest Emperor's offspring, fellow Monarchs, you entered the Monarch realm first but are being surpassed. Doesn't that feel terrible?"
The Great Emperor Reincarnation Body saw the deep-seated unwillingness hidden in the Saint Ancient Emperor's eyes and directly exposed it.
The Saint Ancient Emperor looked coldly at the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, not uttering a word.
The Great Emperor Reincarnation Body sneered, "Of course, you don't need to worry. Since you're unwilling, there are ways to surpass him."
