"Soul-Restraining Hall, I never expected you would dare to launch a full-scale assault on the Ultimate Ancient Path. The conflict between the two overlord-level forces is as incompatible as fire and water, leaving no room for the other."
Ye Chen watched the fiercely raging starry battlefield, naturally unwilling to let Soul-Restraining Hall off easy.
"Fellow Daoist Ice Flame."
"Understood!"
The Ice Flame Monarch made his move. With a single step, he entered the depths of the starry sky, plunging into an even more terrifying battlefield.
In this battlefield where the strongest were merely Quasi-Monarchs, he was utterly invincible. But even Quasi-Monarchs were nothing more than small fry to him.
Imprisoned for tens of thousands of years, the Ice Flame Monarch harbored a sea of blood and hatred towards Soul-Restraining Hall. He would not let them go. Now that he was taking action, he naturally aimed to kill Soul-Restraining Hall's true powerhouses, such as those Heaven Hall Masters at the Ancient Monarch level!
Without a doubt, facing the sudden arrival of the Ice Flame Monarch, Soul-Restraining Hall was bound to pay a heavy price!
At the same time, Ye Chen also took a step forward, heading towards the more terrifying battlefield.
Here, the seven Divine Kings of the Ancient Path could only shake their heads and sigh. "Soul-Restraining Hall is truly pitiful. It's one thing to be enemies with our Ultimate Ancient Path, but to also incur the blood feud of two Star Sky Overlords is simply courting death."
Being able to subdue the Ice Flame Monarch naturally led them to guess that the Battle Saint King was likely an outstanding figure among Ancient Monarchs, and even possibly a Star Sky Overlord.
What was a Star Sky Overlord? In essence, they were Eighth Heaven Monarchs, peerless monarchs, though the title 'Star Sky Overlord' sounded more domineering.
It was often said that Ancient Monarchs were Universe Overlords, but that was merely a title for ordinary times. In a great universe like the Ultimate Ancient Path, which housed multiple Ancient Monarchs, Eighth Heaven Monarchs were the true Universe Overlords, the true Star Sky Overlords!
Although they marveled at the Battle Saint King's unprecedented, record-shattering cultivation speed, they also felt fortunate. Because the Battle Saint King stood on the side of the Ultimate Ancient Path. If he were an enemy, it would be an absolute catastrophe!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two Star Sky Overlord-level existences made their move. With every gesture, they unleashed infinite power capable of overturning the starry sky. With a mere lift of their hands, they easily struck down one Soul-Restraining Hall after another from the depths of space, causing the numerous powerhouses within to vanish along with them.
In less than the blink of an eye, a full twenty-seven Soul-Restraining Halls were shattered.
The speed was so fast that it already surpassed the total achievements of the Ultimate Ancient Path over the past half-month, causing all the powerhouses of the Ultimate Ancient Path to gasp in shock.
They knew of the Battle Saint King and Ice Flame Monarch's strength, but witnessing it firsthand still deeply shook them.
After all, each of these Soul-Restraining Halls was extraordinary. They themselves were comparable to Divine King-level weapons, protected by layers of Divine King formations and garrisoned by Divine Kings. To besiege, let alone shatter, even one was incredibly difficult, requiring a tremendous price.
Some were even garrisoned by Quasi-Monarchs. Like the Extinguished Sun Star Lord not long ago, who personally garrisoned an Earth Hall, causing the Ultimate Ancient Path, even after gathering seven trial ancient passes, to not only fail to capture it after a prolonged siege but instead suffer heavy casualties, staining the starry sky with blood. The old Quasi-Monarch, the Azure-Robed Daoist, even saw his lifespan limit arrive early, forced to pass away helplessly.
Therefore, after a full month of fierce battle, the number of Soul-Restraining Halls struck down had barely exceeded thirty.
As for the most powerful Heaven Halls, not a single one had been brought down. On the contrary, the Ultimate Ancient Path had lost an Ancient Monarch, suffering a severe setback.
Unfortunately, in the eyes of Ye Chen and the Ice Flame Monarch, this was nothing special.
They were both far too powerful, exceeding all reason. Once they took action, there was basically nothing in this world that could stop them.
"Who are you? With nine-colored immortal light swirling around you, this Monarch has never seen you before. Are you an Immortal Monarch from the Primordial Immortal Realm?"
From the extreme depths of the starry sky, an immeasurable dharma manifestation rose, sweeping across the stars of the heavens. It was the Heaven-Earth Dharma Manifestation of an Ancient Monarch, gathering the infinite might of the great starry sky, terrifying beyond measure.
A Heaven Hall Master of Soul-Restraining Hall, a true Ancient Monarch, now faced a peerless enemy rarely seen in his lifetime.
The enemy was a super powerhouse with ten wings on his back. Nine-colored immortal light flowed around his body, setting off his form. Immortal mist pervaded, and the rules of the Great Dao enveloped him, like an Immortal King descending to the mortal world, transcending the thirty-three heavens.
This Heaven Hall Master had not witnessed the scene of the Extinguished Sun Star Lord's death, as he had been fighting an Ancient Monarch of the Ultimate Ancient Path in the extreme depths of space. Suddenly, this Ancient Monarch with nine-colored immortal light appeared out of nowhere, inserting himself into the battlefield and directly locking onto him.
This immediately enraged the Heaven Hall Master. He was a Hall Master of Soul-Restraining Hall, renowned throughout the universe. How many in the starry sky dared to act like this? Even Ancient Monarchs from Imperial Clans had to show caution.
He coldly shouted, "So what if you're an Immortal Monarch? Remember, this is not the Primordial Immortal Realm. Not to mention Supreme Immortals, even Immortal Kings cannot enter. If you dare to interfere, this Monarch will kill you, and your Immortal Clan can do nothing about it."
"Soul-Restraining Hall, have you forgotten me so quickly? Not long ago, I destroyed one of your lairs and killed several of your Heaven Hall Masters."
Ye Chen chuckled lightly. The ten Immortal King Feather Swords were indeed special, capable of shielding his own aura and descending with boundless immortal energy. Ordinary Ancient Monarchs found it difficult to sense his true aura.
"What!" The Soul-Restraining Hall Heaven Hall Master's face instantly changed to one of horror. "You are the Battle Saint King!?"
A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow!
The Battle Saint King's fame shook the boundless universe, his achievements renowned far and wide. How could he not know? To appear so suddenly at this time truly caught them off guard.
"Not too foolish. A correct guess deserves a reward. I grant you death." Ye Chen smiled lightly, his killing intent limitless!
Boom!
Suddenly, endless phenomena manifested across the cosmic starry sky, startling countless star domains. These were the Heaven-Earth phenomena accompanying the fall of an Ancient Monarch.
Both armies clearly saw it. In the depths of space, a Soul-Restraining Hall larger than a star suddenly exploded. The Heaven Hall Master garrisoned within was utterly annihilated.
There, a hand that blotted out the sky and covered the sun stretched out, shrouded in chaotic energy, giving birth to the myriad Daos, like a Great Overlord, ruling over the starry sky.
With a mere lift of the hand, a Heaven Hall Master at the Ancient Monarch level was killed, body and spirit extinguished!
Faintly visible, Ye Chen stood atop the ninefold heavens, ten wings on his back, boundless immortal light and ancient chaotic energy alternating, illuminating all the heavens!
"Battle Saint King!"
The Soul-Restraining Hall side finally discovered the newcomer, letting out a roar of shock and fury. Invisible soundwave power, layer upon layer, swept across most of the starry sky, crashing down with a roar.
This was the roar of an Ancient Monarch, the soundwave power carrying layer upon layer of Monarch rules, extremely terrifying, transforming into immeasurable destructive storms capable of easily obliterating a boundless star domain.
Even Quasi-Monarchs would perish upon facing it, unable to withstand the collision.
"Oh, it's me. What of it?"
Ye Chen slightly raised his gaze, responding indifferently. He flicked his fingers, causing the destructive storm that had made both sides pale to silently disintegrate.
As calm as a breeze, as light as a cloud.
