Having effortlessly annihilated the four Ancient Sovereigns, Ye Chen turned his gaze toward the Demon Emperor Horn at the center of the demonic realm, which shone like a demonic sun, radiating endless waves of dark demonic power and releasing threads of the might belonging to a colossus from antiquity.
It was precisely because of this might of a colossus from antiquity that even the four Ancient Sovereigns of the Dark Demon Race could not truly approach it, only able to devour more dark demonic power from a relatively close distance.
Ye Chen, however, was unafraid. From between his brows, several Origin Sacred Artifacts released a special radiance that enveloped him, allowing him to approach the Demon Emperor Horn.
He reached out his hand, parting the layers of dark demonic power, about to seize this Demon Emperor Horn.
Boom—
Suddenly, the Demon Emperor Horn unleashed an even more terrifying power. A will emerged from within it, sensing Ye Chen's presence, and roared out, "How dare a junior profane this Emperor!"
A terrifying force surged forth continuously, forcing Ye Chen's figure to stagger back several steps.
Raising his eyes to look at the Demon Emperor Horn, his expression grew somewhat solemn.
If he wasn't mistaken, over the long ages, this Demon Emperor Horn had actually developed its own sentience.
"'This Emperor'? How dare you, a mere thing like you, claim the title of Emperor? If the Sacred Demon Emperor's imperial body were to be reborn with a new sentience, I might have to avoid itsedge / sharpness (figuratively, their power or threat), but you are merely a tiny horn. How dare you call yourself Emperor?"
Ye Chen snorted coldly. A mere Demon Emperor Horn, even if it contained immense power, could never match the peerless might of the Sacred Demon Emperor across the Ten Thousand Ancient Times. It couldn't even reach the level of a Great Emperor, at best comparable to a relatively powerful Ancient Sovereign.
Unless it was the Sacred Demon Emperor's imperial body, the form of a colossus from antiquity giving birth to new sentience—only then, even facing a Supreme One, it would fear nothing, for the body of a colossus from antiquity could disregard all.
With a flick of his finger, the Tenfold Sealing Gates flew out, releasing layer upon layer of fearsome sealing power, immediately causing the Demon Emperor Horn's power to diminish drastically.
A light flashed between his brows as the Chaos Saint Soul infant, piloting the Chaos Great Cauldron, flew out. It descended from the sky, unleashing boundless divine power comparable to a peak Tenth Heaven Sovereign, pressing down.
The newborn sentience within the Demon Emperor Horn roared at the sky. The tip of the horn shot upward, attempting to pierce through the Chaos Great Cauldron.
Back in the day, the Sacred Demon Emperor's Demon Emperor Horn had pierced through the Chaos Qiankun Furnace of the Hunyuan Imperial Sovereign, though the horn itself had been broken. This demonstrated its extreme sharpness. The Chaos Great Cauldron certainly could not withstand it.
Ye Chen's expression remained impassive as he said coldly, "You truly think you are the Sacred Demon Emperor? Back then, the Sacred Demon Emperor wielded the Demon Emperor Horn to pierce the Chaos Qiankun Furnace. But you cannot, and I do not possess only these means."
Clang—
The lid of the Chaos Great Cauldron lifted, and a small, childlike figure stepped out—the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. On its tender palm, one finger was exceptionally long and distinct. It descended from the sky, pointing toward the Demon Emperor Horn. This was the Myriad Epochs Overlord's Finger.
Boom—
The Demon Emperor Horn, capable of piercing the Chaos Qiankun Furnace, was struck by this Myriad Epochs Overlord's Finger and sent flying back heavily.
Ultimately, the newborn sentience did not possess the power of a colossus from antiquity and could not unleash the Demon Emperor Horn's maximum power.
Moreover, that was also a Myriad Epochs Overlord's Finger, no less formidable. In the hands of the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, which was at the Emperor level, it could unleash even more terrifying power.
Under that single finger strike, the sentience of the Demon Emperor Horn howled in pain, suffering a fearsome heavy blow.
"Perish."
The Great Emperor Reincarnation Body pointed out the Myriad Epochs Overlord's Finger once more, striking the Demon Emperor Horn again. It repeated this several times in succession, sparing no expense even if it severely depleted the Supreme Emperor Power within its body.
Boom—
When the seventh finger struck, even with the Demon Emperor Horn's defense, the power of the Myriad Epochs Overlord's Finger penetrated through the horn and completely obliterated the newborn sentience.
Finally, the Demon Emperor Horn fell into the hands of the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. Although it still released a continuous stream of dark demonic power, it had diminished considerably and no longer resisted as it had before.
"The Demon Emperor Horn, the essence of the Sacred Demon Emperor's physical body and its hardest part, capable of piercing through the weapons of colossi from antiquity—a true supreme treasure. This single Demon Emperor Horn, without much refinement, can become an absolutely indestructible offensive treasure!"
Holding it in his hand, Ye Chen sent his divine sense into the Demon Emperor Horn. He felt it harbored infinite dark demonic power and even threads of the might of a colossus from antiquity. However, with his current strength, he could not refine it. It still bore the imprint of the Sacred Demon Emperor and could only serve as an external object for now, but that was sufficient for the time being.
One day, as long as he asked a colossus from antiquity like the Flame Emperor to intervene, it could become his possession.
Soon, Ye Chen also found several blood-stained Immortal King Feathers belonging to that supreme Immortal King. Each feather shimmered with nine-colored radiance, as if forged from Chaos Nine Immortal Gold into immortal weapons.
Moreover, they were stained with the blood of a supreme Immortal King, adding a touch of peerless killing intent. Even someone as powerful as Ye Chen felt his physical body as if about to be torn apart by the Immortal King's killing intent, finding it difficult to endure.
"Exactly ten Immortal King Feathers, neither more nor less—a perfect number."
Ye Chen was rather surprised. Suddenly, he recalled the Heavenly Feather Sacred Sword of the Angel Imperial Clan. It was formed from the single topmost feather that fell from each of the eighteen wings when the Angel God Emperor proved his Dao and became an Emperor, containing the essence of an Emperor.
When the eighteen Heavenly Feather Sacred Swords combined, they formed a complete and flawless Supreme Emperor Weapon.
There was even a specially created sword formation that, when combined with them, could increase their might exponentially, making it a famously lethal formation among Supreme Ones!
Thinking of this, he also had the intention to match the Immortal King Feather Swords with a sword formation to maximize their corresponding power.
Of course, at his current stage, Ye Chen could not forge weapons at the Emperor Dao weapon level. However, these ten Immortal King Feathers were far inferior to something like the Demon Emperor Horn, which was transformed from the essence of a colossus from antiquity. Relying on the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body and theempowerment of his Emperor Dao origin, Ye Chen succeeded in refining them.
Moreover, the Immortal King blood on them was not much—only a few drops on each feather. With Ye Chen's strength, he could refine it, but instead, he integrated it into the Immortal King Feathers, maximizing the presentation of the few threads of Immortal King killing intent they contained, turning them into ten great lethal weapons—the Immortal King Feather Swords.
It is worth mentioning that Ye Chen had received the legacies of multiple Supreme Emperors, including colossi from antiquity, so he was not lacking in Supreme Killing Formations.
After some research, he decided to use a Supreme Killing Formation called the "Ten Directions Annihilation Formation" tocooperating with the ten Immortal King Feather Swords.
The Ten Directions Annihilation Formation was created by an ancient Great Emperor known as the Ten Annihilations Demon Emperor.
Although this Ten Annihilations Demon Emperor was not a colossus from antiquity, his combat power ranked among the forefront of Supreme Ones, extremely powerful. The Ten Directions Annihilation Formation heestablished was listed among the ten famous Supreme Killing Formations of ancient and modern times. It had once annihilated a supreme Immortal within the formation, earning a fearsome reputation.
Coincidentally, this Ten Annihilations Demon Emperor also possessed ten Dao Weapons, each at the Emperor Dao weapon level. When combined, they formed a complete Supreme Emperor Weapon. Paired with the Ten Directions Annihilation Formation, it was a great lethal weapon that could make even Supreme Ones pale at the mention of it.
