The others paled, including Monarch Chen Yuan. Having witnessed the absolute invincibility of the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler, they could only feel helpless.
Four alien Sovereigns—what a terrifying lineup—had been effortlessly shattered and slain by the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler alone.
To dare block him now would be certain death.
The Immortal Emperor Medicine seemed to fall silent. After a long while, its canopy swayed, causing heaven and earth to tremble, and it agreed.
Its thick trunk split open, releasing a torrent of life essence so vast it defied belief, interwoven with wisps of mysterious and supremely lofty origin power.
This was the origin of the Immortal Emperor Medicine, evolved bit by bit over endless ages from bathing in Emperor's blood, listening to an Emperor's sutras, and sensing an Emperor's Dao origin. It was the most precious core of the Immortal Emperor Medicine, a source that would drive even Emperors and Supreme Immortals to madness, containing all sorts of unimaginable, supreme wonders.
Refining the complete origin of the Immortal Emperor Medicine could even resurrect a Supreme One from death, allowing them to live a second life.
Of course, even if one wasn't a Supreme One, using the complete origin of the Immortal Emperor Medicine offered a great chance to comprehend the supreme Great Dao and prove one's way to Emperorhood.
Although what it gave Ye Chen wasn't much, it was enough to dissipate all the curse Dao injuries within his body.
As Ye Chen absorbed it, his limbs and bones trembled violently. Waves of boundless power, capable of splitting seas and overturning skies, began to manifest. The Great Dao Heavenly Diagram that sealed his Dao techniques flickered faintly.
The curse Dao injuries within his body were like a dark heavenly sun, their curse power endless, capable of corrupting everything into demons.
But under the life essence and medicinal origin of the Immortal Emperor Medicine, the Dao injuries within Ye Chen's body were being resolved at an astonishing speed.
It didn't take long before all the curse Dao injuries were completely dissipated, transforming before him into streams of dark power.
Yet Ye Chen remained utterly fearless. He directly swallowed them down. His Chaos Supreme Body was like a supreme Chaos furnace, with surging Chaos Dao flames continuously burning, thoroughly refining this power of Dao injuries that had once tormented him. Wisp after wisp of the most terrifying curse power was steamed out, while the remainder transformed into vast, mighty forces that filled his limbs and bones.
His internal Chaos Divine Power increased significantly, surpassing its former state.
Chaos power could assimilate everything, even the dark-attribute power of the alien race.
Unfortunately, it still couldn't break the seal of the Great Dao Heavenly Diagram. This was far more terrifying than the curse Dao injuries, preventing his strength from fully recovering.
Ye Chen deduced multiple times that he would need at least the power of a Ninefold Heaven Sovereign to break it open.
However, the power of a Ninefold Heaven Sovereign was more than four times that of an Eightfold Heaven Sovereign, requiring over ten million Sovereign rules. Such power was something even Ye Chen at his peak had not yet attained; only an Emperor's reincarnation body or a figure like Chaos Mountain Emperor possessed such might.
Unfortunately, the two Supreme Emperor Weapons within his body couldn't be used. He could only rely on external power to break the seal.
"Thank you."
Ye Chen gave a slight nod toward the Immortal Emperor Medicine to express his gratitude, then spoke, his voice vast and shaking the sky: "All of you had best leave this place immediately. Otherwise, when the great enemy arrives, I will be powerless to protect you."
The various powerhouses all changed expressions, seeming to understand something. They turned and fled without a second thought.
He also said to Monarch Chen Yuan: "Fellow Daoist, you should leave as well."
Regardless, Monarch Chen Yuan was a member of an Imperial Clan, and he had courageously faced four alien Primordial Sovereigns alone. His bravery was commendable, worthy of Ye Chen's warning.
Monarch Chen Yuan initially wanted to say he would stay and fight together, but upon recalling the enemy Ye Chen needed to face, he fell silent.
Forbidden Zone Rulers!
Far beyond what he could contend with.
He could only sigh softly and say, "Fellow Daoist, please be careful. I will return and request a Supreme Emperor Weapon to support you."
Ye Chen smiled. "Thank you for your kindness, Fellow Daoist, but it's unnecessary."
He sat down cross-legged, silently waiting for the arrival of the Forbidden Zone Rulers.
He knew that his appearance would inevitably alert those great enemies. They would certainly come, believing his injuries remained, and would seize this moment to move against him at all costs, solely to kill him.
Especially the alien race!
Moreover, the Immortal Emperor Medicine was here; they couldn't possibly not come.
All Ye Chen could do was wait for the rabbit by the tree.
After a brief silence, Monarch Chen Yuan sighed lightly and left with Sovereign Lord Huang.
Before leaving, Sovereign Lord Huang gave Ye Chen a complicated look—admiration mixed with helplessness.
At the passage of the Mythical Ruins Land, forces and experts from all directions were fleeing toward the outside world.
They all knew that since the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler had appeared here, the great enemies who hadn't died in the previous Ruler War would come seeking revenge. This place was no longer safe.
Silently, the Distant Desolate Demon God and Mingxu blended into the crowd, also seizing the chance to leave.
But how could individuals of the alien race like them escape Ye Chen's notice?
Even separated by hundreds of millions of miles, even with his Dao techniques sealed, he still reached out through the void and grabbed all the alien individuals.
Present here, the weakest among the aliens were Heavenly Kings, while the strongest, like the Distant Desolate Demon God, had reached the Six Tribulation Divine King stage, comparable to a peerless Divine King—truly powerful.
There were even several alien Quasi-Sovereigns.
But before Ye Chen, they were as weak as ants.
"Battle Saint King!"
The alien experts were terrified. The Primordial Heaven Realm only knew to call Ye Chen the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler, but they knew his true identity—the Battle Saint King who shook the Chaos Sea.
Having witnessed him thunderously slay four alien Primordial Sovereigns moments before, they were all filled with terror. Even the Distant Desolate Demon God trembled, feeling more a deep sense of powerlessness.
Ye Chen glanced at them casually, as if looking at a group of ants. Without a word, he raised his hand and slapped out.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—
Including the Distant Desolate Demon God, all the aliens were annihilated in body and soul, erased from the mortal world!
Everyone gasped in awe. In the blink of an eye, even Quasi-Sovereigns were reduced to ashes, so utterly fragile.
The strength of the Heavenly Kingdom Ruler had indeed reached an unimaginable level.
Swish—
Elsewhere, Barbarian Tiger was also teleported over through the void.
"Senior!"
Barbarian Tiger remained very respectful. Although he now knew his senior's true identity, he felt no fear, only the same reverence as before.
Although this Heavenly Kingdom Ruler of the Desolate Realm, Ye Chen, had crossed realms to come in the past, he had never harmed many Heaven Realm beings. He had even taken action to protect them when the Forbidden Zone Rulers showed indifference.
Moreover, the Eight Realms of the Myriad Worlds had been one entity since endless ages ago—how could there be any outsiders? And now, he had consecutively and decisively slain powerful enemies from the alien race, inspiring even greater respect.
Ye Chen gave a slight nod. He casually took out a Monarch Immortal Weapon—one left behind after the fall of the four alien Sovereigns—forcibly suppressed the weapon spirit within, and handed it to Barbarian Tiger. "A great crisis will appear soon. Take this Monarch Immortal Weapon, find Divine King Barbarian, and lead the tribesmen of the Barbarian Clan to immediately leave the Luo River Mountain Range and return to the capital. Do not go anywhere else."
"Understood," Barbarian Tiger said.
Swish—
With a wave of his hand, Ye Chen sent Barbarian Tiger far away from the Mythical Ruins Land.
