"The alien race dares to launch an attack? Hah, haven't they just been beaten like stray dogs by our Pangu Palace, fleeing in disarray? At this point, they still dare to appear and launch a full-scale assault on our Ancient Universe? Isn't this just seeking death?" Many Pangu Palace powerhouses snorted coldly.
Over the years, Pangu Palace had gathered the combined strength of the entire Upper Realm of the Pangu Universe. Especially below the Supreme One level, they had adopted an absolutely dominant posture, sweeping forward. Under such circumstances, it was inevitable that many of Pangu Palace's powerhouses developed a sense of arrogance, secretly believing that the alien race daring to launch a full-scale assault was undoubtedly a suicidal act.
"Don't think the alien race is truly that arrogant. Without considerable confidence, these aliens are not fools either."
Primordial Emperor spoke, his gaze sweeping over, forcing those present who were full of themselves to rein in some of their arrogance.
Currently, Pangu Palace had gathered countless powerhouses from the entire Upper Realm of the Pangu Universe. How powerful they were, yet they were merely in a stalemate with the alien race.
If not for the fact that the three Alien Emperors had suffered heavy losses, Pangu Palace wouldn't have much of a role to play.
This sudden move now made even the most peak figures feel grave.
"Although the alien race is arrogant, they are certainly not stupid. It's unlikely all Emperor-level existences have been mobilized. Has anyone found out how many are being dispatched this time?"
Below, an Ancient Sovereign spoke with an extremely grave expression: "Four!"
"Four!"
These words were like a super bomb, directly shocking the entire Pangu Palace. Everyone's expressions changed instantly.
Four ancient Great Emperors! Even if three of them were likely the ones who had suffered heavy losses, the reason an Emperor is an Emperor lies in their supreme, unparalleled capabilities.
"Have the aliens gone mad? They actually dispatched four Emperors at once!"
Xiuluo Emperor frowned. Even though he was an Emperor himself, facing an ancient Great Emperor still brought immense pressure, even if the Alien Emperor had suffered heavy losses.
"Four ancient Emperors. Although we also have Emperor-level existences on our side, Palace Master Wuxiang is contending with the alien race's peak Emperor. Palace Master Primordial and Palace Master Profound God Emperor are holding off the two Alien Emperors who suffered heavy losses. That still leaves one extra Alien Emperor. How do we contend with that?"
A dreadful silence fell over Pangu Palace.
An Emperor-level existence, even if heavily injured, had likely recovered considerably over the years by devouring the lifeblood of countless beings. At the very least, they would be no weaker than an Eternal Emperor like Primordial Emperor.
How terrifying was a combat power at the Eternal Emperor level? Xiuluo Emperor and others had witnessed it before—one could deal with multiple Emperors of the same rank.
Although Pangu Palace's side was not lacking in Emperors, especially with the return of the Tai Sheng Huang Realm bringing back several Emperors, deploying multiple Emperors would, to some extent, deplete the forces below the Supreme One level.
Especially since they still needed to guard against the ancient Great Emperor of the alien race who had not yet made a move, precautions were necessary.
Having too many Emperors drawn away would be absolutely detrimental to Pangu Palace.
Especially with the Human Emperor currently in slumber, requiring protection.
Xiuluo Emperor said solemnly, "If it truly comes to that, I will join forces with several other Emperors to deal with it. I believe even if we cannot win, we can significantly delay them."
However, Profound God Emperor shook his head slightly.
The capabilities of an ancient Great Emperor, even if only possessing power comparable to an Eternal Emperor, were not something several Emperors could contend with, especially when wielding a Supreme Emperor Weapon. Combined with their own Supreme Emperor Weapon striking in perfect harmony, once they attacked, it would be terrifyingly peerless, enough to tie down even more Emperors from Pangu Palace's side.
Thus, the army below the Supreme One level, which originally held an absolute advantage, would see its advantage greatly diminished. Moreover, there wouldn't be sufficient strength to face the alien race's hidden final ancient Great Emperor.
"What a pity. His Majesty the Human Emperor is in slumber."
Someone sighed softly. The Human Emperor was the reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor. As he gradually awakened, his power surpassed that of ordinary Great Emperors.
When he wasn't in slumber before, he had even led Pangu Palace toonce suppress the alien race.
But now, he had inexplicably fallen into slumber.
"What about the Immortal Phoenix in the Qixia Domain?"
Someone spoke up. The Qixia Domain had been confirmed as the nirvana site of a Supreme-level Immortal Phoenix.
If they could awaken the Immortal Phoenix, it should greatly increase their chances of victory.
"The Immortal Phoenix is still in nirvana and cannot be awakened."
Wuxiang Sovereign shook his head slightly.
In fact, not long ago, Wuxiang Sovereign had also tried to contact the slumbering spirit of the Immortal Phoenix in the Qixia Domain. But the Immortal Phoenix's spirit was in deep slumber, at a critical moment of nirvana, utterly impossible to awaken. Thus, there was no other way.
"Since that's the case, then—"
Xiuluo Emperor gritted his teeth, preparing to reiterate his earlier suggestion—for him and several other Emperors to join forces and act together.
"How about leaving it to me?"
A sudden laugh rang out, directly freezing the atmosphere in the hall.
The next moment, everyone in the hall looked over. They saw the entrance of the great hall densely packed with numerous figures.
The leader was flawless, as if the most exquisite carving in the world. Even an ancient Great Emperor would struggle to find any imperfections.
"Battle Saint King!"
Within the hall, the powerhouses of Pangu Palace were greatly shaken, then looked over with immense joy, accompanied by waves of exclamations rising and falling.
Without a doubt, although Ye Chen had been gone for nearly three hundred years, his prestige had never diminished. With the passage of time, it had grown even more resounding, constantly inspiring the younger generation of the Myriad Domains to soar towards the peak of the Great Dao.
He was the supreme genius who suppressed two peerless ancient paths, was invincible among the younger generation of the Chaos Sea, and fought until Imperial Sons and Daughters, Immortal Dao descendants, and even the strongest young Supreme Ones paled in comparison—a figure rich in legendary color.
Even though many powerhouses who had joined Pangu Palace over the years had never met this Battle Saint King, tales of his various deeds were endless.
He was a legendary figure whom even Great Emperors marveled at, admitting they were inferior at his age.
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, this legendary Battle Saint King appeared before everyone.
Especially behind him, there were densely packed numerous super-powerful experts—many Ancient Sovereigns, even several peerless Sovereigns. Even for the current Pangu Palace, this was absolutely a great boost.
"Little fellow."
Above, Wuxiang Sovereign, Profound God Emperor, and Primordial Emperor were also quite excited to see Ye Chen's return.
"Battle Saint King, you've returned from the Lower Realm. Does that mean the alien race invading the Lower Realm has been expelled?"
One of the Emperors spoke up. The alien race had invaded the Lower Realm twice to save Dao Shishi, causing great worry for the Pangu Universe side.
But they had not descended to the Lower Realm and were unaware of the situation.
"The alien race... has been completely annihilated."
Ye Chen smiled faintly.
"Hahaha, excellent!" Many powerhouses in the hall laughed heartily. They had only learned in recent years that the Lower Realm sealed Dao Shishi, an Eternal Emperor. And the terror of an Eternal Emperor could be understood from Primordial Emperor.
Fortunately, they were already extinct, otherwise the consequences would be endless.
"Ye Chen, well done. Now, with your Great Emperor reincarnation body, Mixed Mountain Emperor, and the few of us, combined with Supreme Emperor Weapons, we can barely contend with one Alien Emperor." Xiuluo Emperor laughed heartily.
He didn't take Ye Chen's earlier words to heart.
Even if the Great Emperor reincarnation body was extremely powerful, it still couldn't possibly be a match for an Alien Emperor, even if that Alien Emperor had suffered heavy losses.
"No, one of the Alien Emperors can be left to me." Ye Chen, however, just smiled.
