The crowd erupted in an uproar. Under the Battle Saint King's overwhelming and invincible might, even an Ancient Path Overlord like Tianjizi was helpless and could only hand it over.
Ye Chen's eyes flickered. Of course, since Tianjizi was being so "sensible," he wouldn't continue to attack. He turned his gaze to the Great Sage Immortal Prince and Taiyi, staring at them unblinkingly. Though he remained silent, the immense pressure he exuded still weighed heavily upon them.
Moreover, with the precedents of the Yuanchu Imperial Son, the Chaos Overlord, and the Silver Moon Sovereign right before their eyes, they too felt utterly powerless and helpless, forced to hand theirs over as well.
In an instant, Ye Chen had gathered nine Supreme Divine Crowns, drawing the attention of all.
Now, only the final Supreme Divine Crown within God Emperor City remained.
Ye Chen raised the nine Supreme Divine Crowns high. Billions of radiant lights cascaded down, vast streams of glorious radiance submerging everything. He shouted loudly, "Come forth, the final Supreme Secret Realm!"
Boom—
Instantly, as Ye Chen's loud shout echoed forth, it was as if an imperial decree from an ancient Great Emperor had been issued. Heaven and earth trembled. The Emperor Heaven Hall shook violently, billions of emperor lights shining brilliantly, resonating throughout the entire God Emperor City.
Hum—
A deafening, heaven-shaking roar startled God Emperor City, its sound reverberating across the two ancient domains.
Boundless light was seen, illuminating past and present.
Above the Emperor Heaven Hall, a thick pillar of Emperor Light shot into the sky, containing Supreme might and even exuding wisps of power belonging to colossi from antiquity. It crashed directly into the vast, boundless firmament.
Then, in the next moment, an ancient, majestic, and boundless great world slowly materialized, descending from the heavens as if summoned back from the unreachable realm beyond the heavens. It descended, its immeasurable worldly might falling from the sky, causing the two ancient domains to tremble violently.
This ancient great world was unbelievably vast, even comparable to the two Chaos Primordial Great Worlds—the Eight Desolates Ancient Domain and the Ten Heavens Ancient Domain—which had been transformed by the various Supremes. Its surface swirled with dense, ancient Chaos Qi, as if it was still continuously evolving, still growing, not yet having reached its ultimate state.
An ancient great world that was still growing—vast, chaotic, majestic, and incredible.
"The realm beyond the heavens of these two ancient domains actually hides such an ancient great world?"
"Not simple. This ancient great world gives me a feeling no less profound than a Chaos Primordial Great World!"
"The final Supreme Secret Realm hidden by the various Supremes is actually a Chaos Primordial Great World?"
The crowd exclaimed in astonishment. Using a Chaos Primordial Great World as a Supreme Secret Realm—one had to admit, this scale of effort was far more astonishing than using an Emperor Realm as one.
However, Ye Chen lifted his head, gazing into the distance at this Chaos Primordial Great World. The ancient Chaos Qi constantly churning on its surface caused the Chaos Small Universe within his body to tremble and hum incessantly.
As if resonating with it.
He had a feeling that this Chaos Primordial Great World was anything but simple!
Above his head, the nine Supreme Divine Crowns continuously shone, enveloping him. Like an ancient imperial emperor, he soared into the air, ascending along the Emperor Light Passage opened by the Emperor Heaven Hall, charging skyward directly into the final Supreme Secret Realm.
Within the Emperor Heaven Hall, the various Ancient Path Overlords and Supreme possession bodies saw this, their eyes all flickering.
Seeing the Battle Saint King soaring into the air, about to enter this final Supreme Secret Realm, each of them began to harbor other thoughts. One by one, they stepped forward, also soaring into the air, intending to follow the Emperor Light Passage into the Supreme Secret Realm.
Even the older generation of Ancient Sovereigns did the same.
As for the Quasi-Sovereign level geniuses, Supreme descendants, or older generation figures, they were also tempted, but did not act immediately.
High above, Ye Chen's gaze turned icy. These people dared to enter as well?
They dared to covet even his Supreme Secret Realm?
Seeking death!
Ye Chen, looking down from his superior position, slapped out with his palm. A vast, majestic force descended from the heavens, divine might comparable to that of a Starry Sky Overlord, sweeping down mightily.
This strike could blast apart even the strongest Ancient Path Overlord!
Below, Taiyi, the Great Sage Immortal Prince, Tianjizi, the Sin Overlord, and the other various Ancient Path Overlords all changed expression. They were about to rush down the passage to escape and avoid this attack when the Emperor Light Passage shimmered. Ancient patterns emerged, silently and effortlessly dissolving the strike.
Seeing this, everyone immediately understood. Within the Emperor Light Passage, Emperor Power existed, capable of dissolving any attack below the Emperor level.
Immediately, an Ancient Path Overlord burst into loud laughter, looking at Ye Chen with a mocking, derisive expression. "Battle Saint King, I admit you are indeed powerful enough. No one present is your match. But the Emperor Light Passage contains genuine Supreme Emperor Power. Even if it's not much, it's enough to neutralize your attacks, preventing you from harming us."
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes. "So you're saying, aren't you afraid that once inside the Supreme Secret Realm, I'll be able to kill you?"
At this moment, another Ancient Path Overlord spoke up calmly. "Battle Saint King, one-on-one, or even if a group of us attacked together, we might not be your match. But just now, I carefully studied the Emperor Light Passage. It appears to be pure Emperor Light, but it's inscribed with extraordinary array patterns. Once inside the Supreme Secret Realm, if my guess is correct, everyone will not appear fixed in the same location, but will be randomly teleported to other places."
"Furthermore, this Supreme Secret Realm, being the final one, is definitely extraordinary, connected to the various colossi from antiquity. Even with your heaven-defying combat power, Battle Saint King, you will likely be suppressed to a certain degree. Moreover, with random teleportation to other locations, given the immense size of this Chaos Primordial Great World, even with your abilities, Battle Saint King, you might not be able to find us immediately."
Hearing this, the other Ancient Path Overlords and Supreme possession bodies nodded in agreement.
One-on-one, no one could stand against the Battle Saint King, not even lasting a single exchange. They would surely die within ten rounds.
But inside the Supreme Secret Realm, it was a different story.
A Supreme Secret Realm personally crafted by a colossus from antiquity could even be called a Giant's Secret Realm.
"Hahaha, well said, well said! We also have a certain chance to seize the final Supreme Divine Crown. Perhaps this final crown is the most important one, maybe even capable of controlling the other Supreme Divine Crowns."
Many Ancient Path Overlords speculated that the final Supreme Divine Crown was likely the most extraordinary, because the crowns obtained from the other Supreme Secret Realms were condensed from Supreme Great Emperors or peerless immortals.
The final Supreme Divine Crown, however, was related to the God Emperor, and likely involved other colossi from antiquity as well. It was undoubtedly the most exceptional.
As for the Supreme possession bodies and a few others, this was even more true. Being Supreme Great Emperors themselves, even entities who had left behind the "Ultimate Supreme" immortal fate in the past, their understanding was far deeper.
At this moment, their knowledge of this final Giant's Secret Realm was certainly greater than that of these Ancient Path Overlords.
"Heh!"
Ye Chen suddenly let out a laugh, icy cold. Looking down from above, he gazed contemptuously at all the Ancient Path Overlords, Supreme possession bodies, and Ancient Sovereigns. "Perhaps you all overestimate yourselves and underestimate me. Do you truly believe that just by passing through this Emperor Light Passage, you will be able to smoothly compete for the final Supreme Divine Crown?"
