"A fearsome tribulation that could wound those at the Seventh Heaven is nothing more than a mosquito bite to me, unable to even break my skin. Indeed, ascending to Ancient Monarch from the trinity of Eternal Quasi-Monarch, Chaos Cultivator, and Master of an Origin Universe is far more powerful than I imagined. It's hard for me to even judge how strong my Chaos Supreme Body has become now; so-called Monarch Immortal Weapons are nothing but scrap metal."
Ye Chen mused to himself. Frankly, he found it difficult to judge just how powerful he had become.
Since his comprehensive ascension to Ancient Monarch, he had completely entered a new stratum.
He was an Ancient Monarch, an Eternal Monarch, and a Chaos Monarch—arguably the most unique Ancient Monarch in existence.
If Ancient Monarchs were considered Universe Overlords, then he was the Overlord among Overlords.
One could say that, without relying on external objects, his own body was the strongest weapon, capable of shattering everything.
"Although the heavenly tribulation can hardly harm me at present, the tribulation for a Chaos Cultivator and a Great Perfection Supreme Genius is already heaven-defying. Add to that treading the Path of Eternity, and it seems my Origin Universe will also provide a boost this time. I'm afraid by the later stages, this Monarch Great Tribulation will reach a terrifying, unimaginable level."
Ye Chen raised his head, his gaze piercing towards the highest point of the heavens as if to see through the entire tribulation. Naturally, he saw the ten layers of heaven, the thunderous light gates, and the celestial palaces and immortal halls...
The truly terrifying heavenly tribulation had not yet fully manifested.
This was merely the beginning.
"So be it. When soldiers come, we block them with generals; when water comes, we dam it with earth. For now, I'll use this tribulation to deal with more of the alien race's trash."
The corner of his mouth lifted in a cold arc. Ye Chen calmly strode through the sea of tribulation light and thunder, arriving before an alien Super Monarch at the Seventh Heaven in a few flashes.
It must be said, this alien Super Monarch was covered in blood, enduring the continuous bombardment of the Monarch Great Tribulation. Even with the strength of a Super Monarch, he could not completely block it; his skin was torn and flesh rent, though no fatal injuries were sustained.
Even after being elevated a level, the Monarch Great Tribulation could only wound a Super Monarch, not severely injure him, let alone deliver a fatal blow—that was impossible.
"Battle Saint King!"
The alien Super Monarch roared, both shocked and furious. If not for the Battle Saint King, he would never have endured such a terrifying tribulation bombardment. Yet the one undergoing the tribulation himself remained completely unharmed. Besides being shocked by the opponent's supreme physical body, he also believed the tribulation he faced was inferior to his own, as heavenly tribulations were targeted.
Enraged, he attacked, unleashing the terrifying means of a Super Monarch, far surpassing those of a Sixfold Heaven Sovereign by an immeasurable degree.
Boom—
He disregarded the special attention from the heavenly tribulation caused by unleashing his Super Monarch majesty, knowing that everything would be resolved as long as he successfully killed the Battle Saint King.
Ye Chen's expression remained placid, neither sad nor joyful. He executed the Heaven-Shaking Hand from the Battle Saint Techniques, clashing with the attack.
Crack—
The alien Super Monarch's great divine ability was shattered by Ye Chen, who then landed a palm on the opponent's shoulder, directly piercing through it in a spray of blood light.
"Impossible!"
The alien Super Monarch was utterly horrified. In a direct confrontation, the Battle Saint King had actually wounded him, while he couldn't harm the other at all.
Even a breakthrough from Eternal Quasi-Monarch shouldn't be this terrifying.
Unfortunately, he didn't understand that Ye Chen's greatest strengths were his physical body and divine soul, having been strengthened countless times. Their current power was already beyond description.
Even a Monarch Immortal Weapon would be as fragile as scrap iron before him.
Ye Chen struck like thunder, displaying the peerless means of an Eternal Monarch.
In just over a dozen moves, all of the alien Super Monarch's techniques were broken, and he was swept aside, his body bisected at the waist, his origin severely wounded, and his Junwang Heavenly Soul weakened.
"How can you be so powerful? Even a promotion from Eternal Quasi-Monarch shouldn't be like this."
The alien Super Monarch was terrified, feeling utterly powerless against the Battle Saint King—something unimaginable in the past.
"That's because you don't understand the terror of an Eternal Monarch."
Ye Chen said coldly, stepping forward and flicking a finger heavily against the other's brow. With a boom, the brow exploded, and the Junwang Heavenly Soul was also flicked apart, nearly shattering.
Simultaneously, he waved a hand, manifesting a Chaos halo to seal the opponent.
Within it flickered an extremely terrifying Monarch rule, far surpassing the others. The alien Super Monarch was greatly shocked to find that even mobilizing hundreds of thousands of Monarch rules couldn't budge it: "You actually condensed..."
Before he could finish, Ye Chen sealed him within his origin pocket universe.
Boom—
The sea of tribulation light and thunder exploded as Ye Chen soared through it. The vast, boundless ocean of thunder was directly split in two, infinite tribulation light surging and flashing as it was cleaved apart.
In one step, he arrived before another alien Super Monarch, dealing with him in the same manner.
Whoosh—
His Chaos Supreme Body also appeared, dealing with a third alien Super Monarch.
This was Ye Chen's deliberate targeting. Ordinary Sovereigns, even those at the Sixfold Heaven, were beneath his notice. But any Super Monarch who had reached the Seventh Heaven, he would take action against. Taking advantage of their entrapment and suppressed strength within the sea of tribulation light and thunder, he struck swiftly, aiming to reduce as many of these super combatants as possible, eliminating more formidable figures for the Pangu Universe.
Two streaks of light flew from Ye Chen's body, vanishing into the deepest part of the heavenly tribulation.
Not long after, Ye Chen successively suppressed five alien Super Monarchs, which still required some effort.
By now, the heavenly tribulation was continuously intensifying, reaching an even more terrifying stage.
Ye Chen also began to show some bloodstains, starting to suffer wounds, though not too severe yet.
Looking around, he saw that the other alien Sovereigns had basically all escaped the range of the Monarch Great Tribulation—these were all alien peerless powerhouses at the Seventh Heaven or above. As for alien Sovereigns below the Sixfold Heaven, their situation was much more miserable; over half had been blasted to death, while the other half had been rescued by alien Peak Sovereigns and Emperors, though they suffered terrible, severe wounds.
Overall, this Monarch Great Tribulation had not only annihilated the alien army below the Sovereign level, but also caused the fall of Ancient Monarchs—nearly thirty in total, an extremely heavy loss.
This outcome was unforeseen by anyone.
The flesh and blood of these alien Sovereigns were pulverized, their Junwang Heavenly Souls shattered into fragments, gradually annihilating within the heavenly tribulation.
Seeing this, Ye Chen naturally wasn't willing to let it go to waste. After all, anyone who could survive within the Monarch Great Tribulation for that long must contain the essence of an Ancient Monarch.
He employed supreme means to gather it, condensing it into Sovereign Pills.
In the end, there were over twenty pills, each containing absolutely violent and powerful energy, with Monarch rules imbued within. Once detonated, they could severely wound or even kill a Sovereign.
