This scene caused everyone's expressions to change drastically. With just two strikes, an extraordinary Divine Transformation Dao weapon shattered, and a powerful young prodigy was slain. This Young King was simply too overwhelmingly strong, to the point of being terrifyingly absurd, leaving everyone aghast.
Then, Ye Chen's gaze swept towards the others. Everyone caught in his line of sight felt a chill run down their spines, trembling uncontrollably, overwhelmed by unparalleled fear.
Whoosh—
The next moment, Ye Chen actively charged towards these young prodigies.
All the young powerhouses paled, immediately unleashing attacks. Various divine abilities flew out, and one Divine Transformation Dao weapon after another was hurled towards Ye Chen.
Being struck by such a dense barrage of attacks, even a Young King would find it hard to withstand and would be severely wounded.
But they had clearly underestimated the strength of a Young King, and even more so, they had underestimated Ye Chen's power.
Boom—
Ye Chen fully unleashed the invincible divine might of a King. In an instant, nine divine halos manifested upon his body one after another, as if piercing through nine great worlds to converge upon himself. Surging Dao immortal radiance flowed out, enveloping his form, rendering him imperishable.
He instantly expanded the nine divine halos, transforming them into a hazy Dao domain. All the attacks from this younger generation were actually completely blocked, as if sinking into a void swamp. Not a single attack could harm him in the slightest—it was as if he was impervious to all techniques.
Too strong. So strong it made everyone despair.
Boom—
Ye Chen charged into their midst as if entering unopposed territory. With a single shake of his fist, a full one hundred and eight divine light dragons, each a hundred zhang long, soared forth, sweeping across the entire sky, blasting away all the young prodigies. They were all sent reeling, blood spurting from their mouths and noses, suffering wounds.
Immediately after, a golden, resplendent passageway unfurled behind him, as if opening up a golden great world. A terrifying aura of sharp metal permeated the air—it was the Five Elements Golden Realm, a Supreme treasure technique he had mastered in his previous life, unparalleled in offensive power.
Now reactivated in this life, the Five Elements Golden Realm immediately sent forth one Golden Dao Artifact after another: Dao pagodas, golden heavenly swords, golden twin maces, ancient cauldrons, dark golden halberds...
One Golden Dao Artifact after another continuously flew out. They were not actual magical instruments, but merely Dao weapons condensed from his blood energy, imprinted with his invincible will and Dao marks, extremely powerful, not much inferior to real Dao artifacts. They transformed into dazzling, streaking meteors scattering in all directions, reaching far and wide, assaulting the multitude of powerhouses!
Boom rumble rumble—
All the young powerhouses suffered terrible, heavy wounds. They were simply no match for Ye Chen. Even though several among them were young geniuses who had already achieved Divine Transformation in the mortal world, wielding Divine Transformation Dao weapons and unleashing their full power, it was all to no avail.
Once the nine divine halos emerged, he was impervious to all techniques, standing immortal. Ye Chen stood in the central region, continuously attacking. With the bearing of a single individual, he swept through the young powerhouses. One young prodigy after another, unable to withstand his onslaught, was utterly shattered.
"I'll fight you to the death!"
One young prodigy fell into complete despair. He was one of the top experts among those who had achieved Divine Transformation in the mortal world. At this moment, he completely ignited the divine fire of his Great Dao upon his body, burning both himself and his Divine Transformation Dao weapon as he charged at Ye Chen, seeking mutual destruction. Because he could no longer see any hope of survival; before his end, he wanted to drag Ye Chen down with him.
Ye Chen was simply too strong. So strong it plunged people into despair.
"Want to drag me down into Dao dissipation with you?"
Dao dissipation was terrifying, dissolving one's own Dao into the world, possessing unpredictable and mysterious power.
It might work against others, but unfortunately, facing all this, Ye Chen remained expressionless, his eyes deep and unperturbed. He extended a golden giant hand, transforming it into a heavenly millstone that pressed down. One Dao mark rune after another manifested within it, interweaving upon the heavenly millstone as it descended from the sky, completely suppressing that young prodigy who had ignited his divine fire and grinding him to dust.
The heavenly millstone gave a violent shake, Dao mark laws erupting with blazing intensity, completely grinding the opponent into flying ash.
Even young geniuses at the Divine Transformation Realm were so utterly weak, not worth a single blow. One couldn't help but marvel at just how powerful Ye Chen had become.
He was too strong, almost surpassing the King realm, achieving the status of an Immortal True King, invincible in the mortal world. Even though he was at the ninth heaven of the Demigod realm, by fully excavating his own potential and undergoing Extreme Sublimation, his body contained immeasurable divine power. He could even suppress and slay top experts who reigned supreme in the Divine Transformation Realm, let alone mere members of the younger generation who had only newly stepped into the Divine Transformation Realm. They simply could not harm him.
Just as he had said, these people were too weak for him, utterly incapable of harming him in the slightest. The battle was fierce, but the outcome was predetermined, unchangeable.
He took a step forward. The Great Dao divine power within his body boiled, roaring deafeningly.
Half an hour later, the last young prodigy was slain, his blood staining a cliff. The more than thirty young prodigies who had come to surround and kill him were all completely dead, without a single survivor.
When this matter spread, it caused an immense uproar.
A single stone stirred a thousand waves!
Young prodigies from various great domains were hunting Ye Chen, wanting to kill him and claim the rich bounty of three million jin of spirit stones.
Unfortunately, Ye Chen was simply too powerful, a fearsome monster. More than thirty young prodigies joining forces were no match for him; he alone had reversed the tide and swept through them.
Moreover, afterwards, in a single day, he pushed forward for eight hundred li, directly slaying over a dozen groups of young prodigies he encountered along the way. Blood stained the Domain War battlefield, causing another immense uproar.
Although many had already guessed at Ye Chen's true strength, after witnessing his unstoppable, invincible combat prowess, people were still deeply shocked. He was simply too absurdly powerful. So many young geniuses surrounding him not only failed to succeed but were instead swept aside and annihilated—it was simply outrageous.
Previously, many had believed Ye Chen had only managed to annihilate the Heavenly Dragon Army by relying on backing from some powerful force. Now it seemed that was not the case at all; he truly possessed such supreme power himself.
But this only aroused greater vigilance from the five great domains. This monstrously outrageous Young King was someone no one wanted to see grow up. Within the camps of the five great domains, truly supreme figures had already quietly entered the Domain War battlefield to pursue Ye Chen.
Furthermore, someone began issuing another Earth-grade bounty. This one wasn't for killing Ye Chen, but for searching for information regarding his whereabouts. Anyone providing accurate information on his location would receive thirty thousand jin of spirit stones.
Merely providing reliable intelligence could net thirty thousand jin of spirit stones. Without a doubt, this was a rather rich temptation, attracting the attention of many who went to track Ye Chen's trail.
That same night, in a blood-stained desolate mountain range in the western part of the Domain War battlefield, someone discovered Ye Chen's traces.
From afar, they saw Ye Chen standing proudly atop a mountain peak. Though only in his early twenties, his figure was tall and straight, his long hair dancing in the wind. Starlight descended from the sky, seemingly devoured by him, as if he were an ancient Divine Spirit swallowing heaven and earth, making onlookers tremble with awe.
The cultivator who witnessed this scene from afar immediately reported his location to the people of the five great domains' camps. Immediately, numerous powerhouses, lured by the rich bounty reward, arrived. Among them were even top-tier experts reigning supreme at the third or fourth heaven of Divine Transformation, or even above the fifth heaven. They quickly vanished into that blood-stained desolate mountain range to surround and kill Ye Chen.
That very night, a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering, terrifying great battle erupted. Fearsome columns of light churned in the sky above, clouds rippled, the ninth heaven seemed to explode, divine radiance blazed for thousands of li, illuminating that region as bright as day. Terrifying fluctuations of Dao mark laws continuously spread, destroying forests and mountains, leaving utter devastation.
Even from thousands of li away, one could clearly feel just how intense the battle there was.
No one knew exactly what transpired during that time, only that the battle was incredibly fierce, raging across thousands of li, affecting a vast area. Along the way, several continuous mountain ranges were directly destroyed.
Furthermore, powerhouses fell one after another. Their copious blood once again dyed the entire dark-red desolate mountain range a brilliant, fresh crimson.
In this battle, countless powerhouses perished. That region was simply a scene of heaven collapsing and earth splitting, the world in turmoil, blood spraying three thousand chi, lives extinguished there.
Afterwards, many powerhouses specifically rushed over to join the battle, one after another, successive efforts, all just to surround and kill a single young junior. Rumors spoke of super Divine Transformation experts above the Seventh Heaven appearing, looking down upon the world, also coming to capture and kill Ye Chen.
The fierce battle lasted a full night before gradually coming to an end.
The next morning, as the rising sun climbed in the east, long after the battle had concluded, some cultivators who had been waiting impatiently, suppressing their trembling hearts, hurried forward to see the outcome. When they arrived and looked, they were utterly stunned.
They saw that the battlefield spanned a radius of a hundred li. Continuous desolate mountains had been directly destroyed, mountains collapsed and earth split. It was impossible to tell how many had died. All they knew was that endless blood had dyed the entire earth red. Broken limbs and fragments of magical instruments were everywhere, an extremely gruesome scene. Even the blowing wind carried a bloody stench, nauseating to the senses.
In the center of the battlefield, only a single slender figure stood alone, towering above the endless sea of flesh and corpses. His clothes were completely stained with blood, yet it did not diminish his imposing demeanor in the slightest; his aura remained boundlessly powerful.
His icy gaze swept over those observing the outcome, instantly making everyone feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, their bodies chilled to the bone, trembling with fear, not daring to ask anything.
That person's face was known to almost everyone across the five great domains—he was the supreme figure who had slaughtered the Heavenly Dragon Army until it crumbled.
But what made even more people's expressions change was that Ye Chen had fought for an entire night, yet his aura showed no sign of diminishing, still soaring like a rainbow. This made powerhouses watching from who knows how many li away feel waves of despair.
In a daze, it was as if they were witnessing an invincible Divine Spirit emerging into the world, sweeping through all opposition without a single worthy opponent.
