Luan Shi Tianjun combined the stone rod in his hand with the World-Grinding Plate, forming a massive hammer.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The hammer manifested, yet it was far more powerful than before.
This was the true Forbidden Ancient Weapon, a Forbidden Ancient Weapon in its complete form.
Moreover, an ancient Dao Diagram suddenly appeared on the Forbidden Ancient Weapon, resembling a seal, yet also like a star chart imprinted with the stars of all heavens.
But at the same time, ancient Great Dao runes surged forth from the ancient Dao Diagram.
To call them Great Dao runes might not be entirely accurate; perhaps 'secret characters' was more fitting, for once these secret characters manifested, they transformed into legendary Heaven and Earth Holy Beasts—there was an Immortal Phoenix of Immortality, a Heaven-Devouring Colossal Beast, a Primordial True Dragon...
These secret characters involved the Great Dao at an extremely high level, and also seemed like combinations of numerous Sovereign rules.
In short, they were terrifying beyond measure.
Among them, nine Imperial Characters faintly appeared, each one seemingly manifesting an Ancient Emperor Supreme One, standing tall within the Nine Heavens.
The entire world was shaken. Even the Taboo Figures of the other eight Forbidden Zones of Life were no exception, their gazes fixed unwaveringly on the nine Imperial Characters.
They felt Luan Shi Tianjun had hidden his depths truly well, to actually possess such a method. This was absolutely a great killing weapon. Combined with the Forbidden Ancient Weapon, who in the world could stand against it?
Faintly, there was the low murmur of a Taboo Figure: "What a formidable Luan Shi Tianjun. With nine Imperial Characters, he might have grasped a Supreme Emperor's legacy site, or even mastered a Supreme inheritance. If that's truly the case, when the time comes to vie for the heaven-defying opportunity, he could seize a great advantage."
"Heh, Luan Shi Tianjun has indeed hidden himself deeply. If he suddenly unleashed this during the future struggle for opportunity, he could catch us off guard. But it's just as well. Today, that peerless figure from the Huang Realm forced him to reveal this method, which actually suits our intentions. Even if we encounter it in the future, we'll be prepared."
Every Taboo Figure was extraordinary, each having been a ruler of their era, possessing terrifying, unknown foundations.
Luan Shi Tianjun attacked, unleashing a supreme assault, and said coldly, "To have forced this Sovereign to use this trump card, you can be proud. Though you will die, you are also respectable. Before your death, speak your name."
"Kill me?"
Ye Chen sneered coldly, his aura suddenly soaring, breaking through the heavens, his voice exploding across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths: "Remember me! The one who kills you today is the Dominator of the Huang Realm Heavenly Kingdom—Ye Chen!"
With a great shout that shook the world, he threw a punch—a supreme holy fist containing ten thousand kinds of Dao techniques—forcefully clashing against the World-Grinding Plate hammer in its complete form.
His palm and fingers descended, instantly giving rise to nine Imperial Characters.
That's right, Ye Chen also mastered Imperial Characters. Now manifesting them, he directly withstood the opponent's nine Imperial Characters.
Moreover, behind the nine Imperial Characters, another nine Imperial Characters manifested, representing the two poles of Supreme Yin and Supreme Yang.
The descent of the eighteen Imperial Characters directly tore open the opponent's supreme Dao Diagram, causing it to explode amidst dazzling immortal light.
At this moment, a Chaos Holy Fist surged forth, tearing through everything, forcefully striking the World-Grinding Plate hammer.
The entire world witnessed the eternally indestructible World-Grinding Plate hammer being pierced through by sheer force.
With a single shake of his fist, it instantly shattered into numerous fragments that scattered in all directions.
The great world was horrified. Just how powerful was the physical body of the Huang Realm Heavenly Kingdom's Dominator, to directly shatter such a Forbidden Ancient Weapon? If it were any other Primordial Sovereign, forget shattering it—the moment of collision alone would have severely injured them, or even reduced them to dust.
"Impossible!"
Luan Shi Tianjun's expression changed drastically. But at this moment, Ye Chen pressed forward step by step. With a whoosh, he appeared before Luan Shi Tianjun, his palm seal striking out, giving rise to billions upon billions of layers of Chaos Sword Qi that erupted from every corner of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Each strand was as thick as a starry river, converging from the earth and the Nine Heavens, all focusing on Luan Shi Tianjun.
Whoosh—
Even someone as powerful as Luan Shi Tianjun couldn't withstand it. Unable to endure, he was struck by Ye Chen until his body was covered in wounds, drenched in blood that sprinkled across every corner of the heavens.
A torrential blood light bloomed, spreading throughout the infinite eastern territory of the Heaven Realm.
All people were shaken!
It seemed as if there was a terrible premonition: today, a supreme Taboo Figure from a Forbidden Zone of Life would be slaughtered, his blood staining the Primordial Heaven Realm.
That was a ruler of an era, a supreme existence who looked down upon the world's vicissitudes, worshipped by billions of living beings. Today, even he faced such a situation.
Luan Shi Tianjun roared, naturally unwilling to meet such an end.
He let out a great shout, exerting all his strength to attack, unleashing his supreme secret technique that shook the vast Primordial Heaven Realm—the supreme divine ability he had relied on to dominate the Primordial Heaven Realm for an era.
Unleashed today, it was no less formidable than his earlier supreme assault.
He believed his earlier move had been countered by Ye Chen, hence his current predicament. But now, using this move, it wouldn't be the same; he had the determination to achieve victory.
Ye Chen's body trembled slightly, billions of layers of Chaos light enveloping him, overlapping endlessly, impervious to all things, inviolable by all laws. He charged straight forward, and with a deafening boom, tore through the opponent's offensive.
Moreover, he displayed a fearsome combat power that surpassed Luan Shi Tianjun's.
"You can be considered quite strong," Ye Chen said coldly. "To ascend to the Primordial Sovereign realm in the lower world and walk this far is enough to prove your peerless genius. But unfortunately, you still fall far short compared to me."
Ye Chen's power, rivaling that of a peerless Sovereign, was now fully displayed, thoroughly shaking the Primordial Heaven Realm. A perfect, flawless, and supreme Great Dao aura spread out, suppressing all the myriad Daos of the heavens, forcing them to retreat.
This was the Eternal Sovereign!
The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths trembled greatly; all directions within the Six Harmonies and Eight Desolations shook.
In this moment, everyone was awed by Ye Chen's supreme might.
The Taboo Figures of the other eight Forbidden Zones of Life all revealed expressions of shock and horror: "Such a powerful aura, surpassing even ours. Is he at the peerless Sovereign level?"
The seven ancient legacies were equally greatly shaken, especially those Sovereign-level progenitors. Their gazes were fixed unwaveringly on Ye Chen, their astonishment not concealed in the slightest.
A peerless Sovereign!
A peerless Sovereign had actually manifested in the present age!
How could the Huang Realm give birth to such a peerless, era-defying figure!
Luan Shi Tianjun's expression also completely changed, filled with terror: "Impossible! How many years have you cultivated? To become a Primordial Sovereign is already remarkable. How could you reach the peerless Sovereign level?"
Ye Chen, like a Chaos Dominator, looked down from on high at Luan Shi Tianjun and sneered coldly: "Let me tell you, I have cultivated for less than a thousand years to this day!"
His voice was calm, yet it spread throughout the entire Primordial Heaven Realm, causing an unprecedented great upheaval!
The entire world was horrified!
To have cultivated for less than a thousand years yet ascended to the peerless Sovereign level—what kind of monstrously terrifying genius was that?
Unique throughout all ages!
Simultaneously, Ye Chen struck like thunder. Even someone as powerful as Luan Shi Tianjun, a Dominator of a Forbidden Zone of Life, was powerless to resist.
In the brief clash of a dozen or so exchanges, half his body was torn apart, his blood sprinkling across the heavens, and his Sovereign Heavenly Soul was ripped asunder.
Ye Chen was like an Ancient Emperor, a Supreme One, peerless and unmatched in the world. Across the vast, boundless world, it was difficult to find anyone who could rival him.
