The four Quasi-Giants left the Immortal Pass.
Four Quasi-Giant level Great Daos spanned over thirty Immortal Passes, and soon, they returned before the First Immortal Pass.
"We pay our respects to the four Majesties!"
Before the First Immortal Pass, numerous Monarchs, and even Immortal Monarchs, along with many holy lands and ancient nations, and countless living beings prostrated themselves in worship towards the four.
The simultaneous appearance of four Quasi-Giant level Majesties was a sight rarely seen in all of history.
Billions of living beings could only kowtow and submit.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, please wait a moment."
At this time, the three Quasi-Immortal Kings asked Ye Chen to wait briefly.
Haotian Quasi-Immortal King said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm not only measures the strength of Supreme Ones and above, but also grants rewards once one successfully passes through the Immortal Passes."
"Rewards?" Ye Chen was surprised.
What in this world could offer rewards to Supreme Ones and above? Even a Giant of All Ages would be extremely reluctant to part with such things.
"Yes, you'll know soon." Haotian Quasi-Immortal King smiled.
Nan Gong Quasi-Immortal King and Bei Ming Quasi-Immortal King also smiled lightly, offering no further explanation.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—
Soon, the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm suddenly trembled violently. Visible to the naked eye, the layers of Immortal Passes shook, and almost every Immortal Pass gave birth to a ray of immortal light.
In an instant, a full thirty-nine rays of immortal light appeared out of thin air. Each was as thick as a sparse galaxy, and the further back the immortal light, the more intense the Supreme power it contained. Nineteen rays even contained pure Supreme power, with nine of those reaching the Quasi-Giant level.
They clearly corresponded to the thirty-nine Immortal Passes Ye Chen had passed through.
For a fleeting moment, it was as if nine Quasi-Giants, ten Supreme Ones, ten Monarchs, and ten Emperors had appeared, their immeasurable might overshadowing past and present, shaking the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm and startling everyone currently challenging it.
"It's the immortal light bestowed by the Immortal Passes, and thirty-nine rays at that!"
"Heavens! What has happened? Thirty-nine rays of immortal light have appeared!"
"They appeared simultaneously. Could it be that an invincible Quasi-Immortal King from our Primordial Immortal World has awakened and is challenging the passes before attempting to impact the Immortal King realm, absorbing thirty-nine rays of invincible immortal light for a final accumulation?"
...
The full thirty-nine rays of immortal light, vast as galaxies, made it impossible for anyone to maintain complete, unruffled calm.
Throughout history, almost no one had ever received so many rays of immortal light at once.
The immortal light was a bestowal from the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm.
Even beyond the fortieth Immortal Pass, an Immortal King in secluded meditation was disturbed. Gazing towards the front of the First Immortal Pass, his gaze capable of piercing through all the Immortal Passes, it fell upon Ye Chen. He remarked in surprise, "It's that young man again. Truly monstrous, and his age is actually so young."
This time, he truly observed Ye Chen seriously.
The sudden appearance of thirty-nine rays of immortal light stirred up infinite phenomena and shifting winds.
Ye Chen was puzzled and didn't understand, but seeing the smiles of the three Quasi-Immortal Kings, he knew there was no problem. Standing firm here, he calmly accepted these rays of immortal light.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—
A full thirty-nine vast rays of immortal light simultaneously entered his body.
Ye Chen only felt that each ray of immortal light actually contained vigorous Immortal Dao Supreme power. Especially the further back the immortal light, the purer and more potent the Immortal Power it contained, and it carried many Supreme Immortal Principles that could be assimilated as his own.
He was immensely puzzled because after the thirty-nine rays of immortal light entered his body and fused into one, he distinctly felt a cluster of Origin Immortal Dao spontaneously generate within him.
Originally, when he attained the Eternal Monarch realm, the origin Great Daos of the three alien Monarchs he had refined back then had also become origin Monarch Daos.
Now, after challenging the thirty-nine Immortal Passes of the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm and receiving the secret realm's reward, a cluster of Origin Immortal Dao had spontaneously been born within his body. Moreover, the strength of this cluster of Origin Immortal Dao even surpassed that of his three origin Monarch Daos, clearly belonging to the Quasi-Immortal King level.
He couldn't help but be greatly shocked.
This was simply creating a Quasi-Immortal King out of thin air.
It could be called unimaginable.
Ye Chen was utterly astonished. Even the origin of a Chaos Ancient Universe couldn't possibly bestow such a creation.
What astonishing origins did the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm possess?
He suspected that if he passed through the Immortal Passes of the Giant of All Ages level, he might also spontaneously generate an Immortal King level Origin Immortal Dao.
Haotian Quasi-Immortal King smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, there's no need to be so shocked. We were the same back then. Within the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes,' as long as you pass an Immortal Pass, it bestows the corresponding immortal light, which can increase a significant amount of divine power, or even Immortal Power."
"Is it just divine power or Immortal Power? No reward of Supreme Immortal Principles?" Ye Chen frowned. According to Haotian Quasi-Immortal King's statement, what they received seemed to be merely an increase in divine power or Immortal Power, not including Supreme Immortal Principles.
Nan Gong Quasi-Immortal King said, "Naturally. Although the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' is quite extraordinary, capable of measuring the strength of the world's top existences, being able to reward Immortal Power is already very good, saving us much time in refinement. As for rewarding Supreme Immortal Principles, that's simply impossible. No such place could exist in this world."
The three Quasi-Immortal Kings were all very certain. Haotian Quasi-Immortal King looked at Ye Chen in surprise and said, "What's wrong, Fellow Daoist Ye? Did it also reward you with Supreme Immortal Principles?"
"How could that be? I was just asking." Ye Chen smiled, naturally not revealing this secret. The reward of Supreme Immortal Principles, and the bestowal, seemed to be for him alone.
What exactly was going on?
Was it because he was a Chaos Controller?
Was it because of his origin small universe?
Or was it because he was the strongest Eternal Monarch in history?
The thirty-nine rays of immortal light creating a Quasi-Immortal King level Origin Immortal Dao out of thin air meant that, to a certain extent, Ye Chen was equivalent to having become a Quasi-Immortal King.
He could switch between Quasi-Giant and Quasi-Immortal King.
With a thought, within his body's origin small universe, the Origin Immortal Dao stirred, transforming into a Chaos Quasi-Immortal King, identical in appearance to himself.
"It can even be like this. This is indeed a great creation. So, does this mean that besides my Chaos Supreme Body and Chaos Monarch Spirit, I now also have a Chaos Quasi-Immortal King body? However, the strength of this Chaos Quasi-Immortal King body needs to be verified. It probably can't compare to my two strongest avatars, but it should be able to exist eternally without perishing."
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Ye Chen's mind.
"Interesting. The origins of the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm seem even more extraordinary than imagined."
Ye Chen took a deep look at the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm, then turned and left this eternally famous, unfathomable secret realm with the three Quasi-Immortal Kings, returning to Pan Dao Immortal King City.
The morning sun rose in the east. Within Pan Dao Immortal King City, infinite immortal light suddenly bloomed, submerging the vast Immortal King Domain.
Behold, above Immortal King City, a colossal arena, majestic and magnificent like a divine city, descended from the sky.
Though called an arena, in reality it was larger than many ancient cities, stretching boundlessly with a diameter exceeding a hundred thousand miles, capable of accommodating billions of living beings and more.
This was the handiwork of an Immortal King.
