Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Innumerable sword rays surged forth. The Fifth Emperor Envoy was soon covered in wounds, blood flowing freely as he suffered injuries.
At this moment, Ye Chen and the Chaos Great Cauldron launched a full-scale assault, reviving the power of the Chaos Great Cauldron to its utmost. He sensed the arrival of danger and knew he must end the battle swiftly. If it dragged on, even more powerful enemies were likely to arrive.
With the Original Body and the two strongest Dao Bodies attacking in concert, the Fifth Emperor Envoy and Weapon No. 2 were at a disadvantage, suppressed and almost powerless to resist.
"Today, I shall exterminate three of your Soul-Restraining Hall's Emperor Envoys."
Boom—
Ye Chen erupted with his full power, unleashing the peak might of an Eternal Sovereign comparable to a Ninth Heaven Sovereign. The three entities merged into one, their terrifying power manifesting. Within dozens of exchanges, the Fifth Emperor Envoy could no longer withstand it and was bisected at the waist by the Chaos Supreme Body wielding the Immortal King Feather Sword.
Boom—
The Chaos Great Cauldron, like a peerless Emperor Cauldron, spewed boundless Chaos Qi, sweeping across the starry sky, incomparably heavy. With a single strike, it blasted apart half of the Fifth Emperor Envoy's body, causing blood radiance to stain the endless void.
Under the continuous attacks from the Original Body and the Supreme Dao Body, the Fifth Emperor Envoy faced immense pressure, his decline immediately apparent. Judging by his condition, it seemed he would be suppressed by Ye Chen before long.
"Junior, get out of my way! I am the Fifth Emperor Envoy under the command of the Great Emperor!"
The Fifth Emperor Envoy roared in fury, displaying the terrifying combat power of a Ninth Heaven Sovereign. His vitality was extremely vigorous, capable of dominating the boundless starry sky. He rapidly reconstituted his physical body and employed a supreme secret technique, clashing fiercely with Ye Chen.
Moreover, each of the Nine Great Emperor Envoys possessed a supreme secret technique bestowed upon them by the Heaven Soul Great Emperor, astonishingly powerful, allowing them to unleash combat strength surpassing their current level for a short time.
Once the Fifth Emperor Envoy employed it, his aura skyrocketed, reaching the peak of the Ninth Heaven Sovereign level, even approaching the Tenth Heaven Sovereign level. His power of Sovereign Rules exceeded thirty million strands, truly overwhelming the cosmos, terrifyingly excessive.
Simultaneously, the Sixth and Seventh Emperor Envoys also activated their secret techniques for enhancement.
These enhancement secret techniques were unique, personally created for them by the Heaven Soul Great Emperor, tailored to their individual selves with almost no side effects.
More importantly, if the Nine Great Emperor Envoys activated them simultaneously, their effects could stack and influence each other, making the enhancement even more powerful.
"The Heaven Soul Secret Technique! It is said that if the Nine Great Emperor Envoys employ it together, merging as one, they can even contend with an Ancient Great Emperor!"
Someone's expression changed, recognizing the origin of that secret technique; its reputation was immense.
The Ice Flame Monarch and the other two Star Sky Overlords also paled. The auras emanating from the three enhanced Emperor Envoys were now at least at the Ninth Heaven level, with the Fifth Emperor Envoy vaguely reaching the Tenth Heaven magnitude, undoubtedly surpassing them.
Enveloped in layers of extreme, terrifying might, the Fifth Emperor Envoy looked coldly at Ye Chen. "Battle Saint King, to force me to employ the supreme secret technique bestowed by His Majesty, you are indeed powerful. But today, you must die."
"Heh, do you think only you can employ an enhancement secret technique?"
Ye Chen gave a cold smile. Simultaneously, all three of his forms underwent a massive enhancement, reaching the mid-stage of the Ninth Heaven Sovereign level. Their strength doubled, each possessing over twenty million strands of Sovereign Rule power.
And then, he executed the Chaos Three Gods Unification Style!
Boom—
The Original Body and the two strongest Dao Bodies fused into one, achieving trinity. In that instant, Ye Chen's aura surged once more, thoroughly breaking into the Tenth Heaven Sovereign level. Unparalleled absolute combat power surged within him.
Like a supreme Emperor, he looked down from a lofty position, gazing upon the three Emperor Envoys, his eyes filled with mockery. "Can you still be so arrogant now?"
Boom—
The most intense battle erupted, but the outcome would not change much. After achieving trinity, the Sovereign Rule power Ye Chen commanded reached nearly seventy million strands, resulting in a completely one-sided suppression.
Even though the three Emperor Envoys had powerfully enhanced themselves with their secret techniques, the result remained largely unchanged.
Half a day later, the three Emperor Envoys were successively slain, perishing within the starry void.
Weapon No. 2, the legendary progenitor of the Star-Devouring Beast, was also suppressed. However, it was not fully awakened but instead became Ye Chen's mount, intimidating the starry sky.
Thus, of the Soul-Restraining Hall's Nine Great Emperor Envoys, the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth had been slain. The name of the Battle Saint King once again spread across the great cosmos, and the world grew even more awed by this invincible Battle Saint King.
The loss of five of the Nine Great Emperor Envoys was an absolutely massive blow to the Soul-Restraining Hall.
Especially since each Emperor Envoy was once a Star Sky Overlord who had followed the Heaven Soul Great Emperor. Their successive eliminations meant the Soul-Restraining Hall had been severely wounded, losing over half its peak combat power. The profound foundation accumulated over several epochs had been halved. This was not merely a case of suffering severe damage to one's vitality; it was akin to being nearly bisected.
"What a formidable Battle Saint King, capable of slaying five of my Nine Great Emperor Envoys. Although Old Fifth and the others were somewhat lacking in strength, to kill so many is no simple feat."
Deep within the starry sky, the Second Emperor Envoy appeared. He had spent some time undergoing the most comprehensive recovery, adjusting his state. He never expected that upon fully recovering, he would hear the news that the other four Emperor Envoys had also been slain.
This caused his expression to darken slightly.
The Nine Great Emperor Envoys were as close as brothers, all supreme experts who had once followed the Heaven Soul Great Emperor. Now, five of them had been successively killed by a latecomer. This was an absolute major blow to the Nine Great Emperor Envoys.
If the Battle Saint King was not dealt with, the Nine Great Emperor Envoys would undoubtedly become his stepping stones, further cementing the Battle Saint King's formidable reputation.
On this day, while deep in the starry sky searching for other strongholds of the Soul-Restraining Hall, Ye Chen suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of terrifying crisis.
Whoosh—
A blade light that illuminated the entire pitch-black starry sky appeared in an instant, slashing towards him at an inconceivable speed, vast and boundless like a stellar river.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Unable to dodge in time, Ye Chen manipulated ten Immortal King Feather Swords to meet the attack from above. Clanging sounds rang out incessantly as all the Immortal King Feather Swords were forcibly split apart, offering almost no resistance. However, they bought Ye Chen a sliver of an opportunity.
Seizing this sliver, he shifted sideways with lightning speed.
Thud—
Even so, his arm was slightly grazed. The terrifying blade light, capable of cutting through anything, clashed against his Chaos Saint Body with a metallic clang, yet failed to injure it.
Beneath him, the progenitor of the Star-Devouring Beast roared, nearly cleaved in two.
Behind him, the Ice Flame Monarch and the other two Star Sky Overlords who had followed Ye Chen fared even more miserably. With cries of agony, they were all bisected at the waist.
This sudden attack nearly wiped out Ye Chen and his three companions entirely.
"Who is it?"
Ye Chen's eyes sharpened, entering a state of full alert. A sense of danger surfaced in his heart.
This was the first time since returning to the Ultimate Ancient Path that he had encountered such a terrifying crisis.
The opponent was strong, excessively so, far surpassing him.
At the very least, he was a Tenth Heaven Sovereign, perhaps even stronger!
