But soon, Zi Yang Quasi-Immortal King shook his head. If Ye Chen had truly become a Supreme Immortal King, he wouldn't be sitting on a secondary Quasi-Giant throne, but on a Giant throne instead.
"Battle Saint King, you've arrived!"
Not long after, the three Quasi-Immortal Kings—Hao Tian, Nan Gong, and Bei Ming—also arrived, greeting Ye Chen.
Ye Chen nodded in return.
As time passed, one colossus from antiquity after another, along with Quasi-Giants and Supreme Ones, arrived in succession.
Top-tier colossi from antiquity such as Zhong Yan Immortal Venerable, Xuan Xu Saint Venerable, and Alchemy Emperor also made their appearance.
Several colossi from antiquity of the alien race arrived as well, and even some from the Alien Ancient Universe crossed the Chaos Sea to attend, followed by a few Quasi-Giants.
There were four colossi from antiquity, matching the number from the Pangu Universe. They exchanged cold glances with the hostile Giants like the Battle Saint Ancestor and snorted disdainfully.
One of them was none other than Yuan Chu Emperor Ancestor.
Upon spotting Ye Chen, his gaze instantly turned countless times colder, as if the River of Time itself were about to manifest, freezing past, present, and future.
A voice filled with chilling intent suddenly echoed through the Ten Thousand Ancient Hall: "Battle Saint King, you actually dared to kill my son. You truly have immense gall."
As a colossus from antiquity, how could he not sense that his most outstanding eldest son, Emperor Wan Yan, had perished?
That was his most exceptional eldest son, one with the potential to impact the realm of colossi from antiquity. Now he had been slain—how could Yuan Chu Emperor Ancestor not be enraged?
Simultaneously, the other three alien Giants also directed icy, murderous gazes toward Ye Chen.
The wrath of a Giant manifested in countless phenomena; the entire Ten Thousand Ancient Hall could clearly feel the terrifying aura of this Giant's fury.
"Just a piece of trash, killed and done with. Taking three epochs to become a Quasi-Giant—is that something to be proud of?" Ye Chen gave a faint, indifferent smile, utterly unafraid. With a casual wave of his hand, all the manifested phenomena instantly disintegrated into nothingness.
Silence fell over the Ten Thousand Ancient Hall. The Supreme Ones and Quasi-Giants from all realms were stunned.
Not only did the Battle Saint King show no respect for a colossus from antiquity, he even called Emperor Wan Yan—who had become a Quasi-Giant in three epochs—a piece of trash.
What arrogant words!
However, the three Quasi-Immortal Kings—Hao Tian, Nan Gong, and Bei Ming—could only offer wry smiles. The other Supreme Ones or Quasi-Giants who knew of Ye Chen's circumstances also fell silent.
If anyone else had spoken like that, it would be sheer arrogance. But not the Battle Saint King.
He had the qualification.
Having reached the peak of Quasi-Giant in just six thousand years—what monstrous, peerless talent was this? He suppressed all eras, with few who could compare.
It was said that the Battle Saint King's monstrous talent could rival even the Heavenly Emperor and Shidai, who stood at the absolute pinnacle of the Chaos Sea, invincible throughout the ages.
Yuan Chu Emperor Ancestor erupted in fury, extending a massive hand that covered the heavens, completely sealing the space where Ye Chen stood. He coldly shouted, "Battle Saint King, daring to disrespect this lord, to disrespect a Giant, is a capital offense! You shall be executed!"
Boom—
The true might of a colossus from antiquity, a majestic power transcending time and space, did not spread far. Instead, it concentrated solely within the space surrounding Ye Chen, making it all the more terrifying and unmatched.
With a Giant making a move, who could possibly stop it?
Ye Chen's gaze turned cold. He was an extreme-level Quasi-Giant, capable of challenging colossi from antiquity. Why would he fear?
But he did not strike, because at that moment, the Flame Emperor behind him had already acted. Primordial Emperor Flames erupted abruptly, transforming into an equally massive hand that descended from the sky, clashing with Yuan Chu Emperor Ancestor's hand and shattering both.
The Flame Emperor's voice rang out: "So what if we disrespect you? You're just alien scum. Not only do we disrespect you, given the chance, we'd kill you and whip your corpse."
All sides were stunned. Only the Quasi-Giants and colossi from antiquity offered bitter smiles, because long ago, the Flame Emperor had been a notorious troublemaker. Even now, having become a colossus from antiquity, he remained the same.
However, the Battle Saint King's disrespect toward Yuan Chu Emperor Ancestor was only natural. After all, the Pangu Universe and the Alien Ancient Universe were absolute enemies—why show respect?
At the same time, the Battle Saint Ancestor's gaze burned with intensity as he swept it over the four alien Giants. Under that scorching scrutiny, everyone sensed something amiss—it was a gaze that looked upon them as if they were prey, eerily unsettling.
As he scanned them, he spoke to Ye Chen: "Little fellow, which one catches your eye? I'll kill him and offer him as a sacrifice for you."
The powerful figures within the Ten Thousand Ancient Hall were dumbfounded.
What did those words mean?
Ye Chen was also taken aback, offering a wry smile. Truly, this was the Battle Saint Ancestor—unmatched indomineering. He dared to speak like this right in front of the alien Giants.
The alien Giant Sheng immediately turned grim-faced. "Battle Saint Ancestor, what do you mean by that?"
Saint Demon Emperor also spoke coldly: "Battle Saint Ancestor, do not be too arrogant."
The other two alien Giants also wore extremely cold expressions.
The Battle Saint Ancestor replied indifferently: "Nothing much. I just want to slaughter one of you."
"..."
Silence filled the entire hall.
Even the colossi from antiquity from various factions were somewhat stunned.
Toodomineering!
Only the Battle Saint Ancestor would dare speak like this. Any other colossus from antiquity wouldn't dare utter such words, openly declaring the intent to slaughter an alien Giant.
Everyone knew the Battle Saint Ancestor had always been thisdomineering and domineering. In terms of sheerdomineering, even Zi Xiao Immortal King could not compare to him.
Saint Demon Emperor's gaze turned icy, the might of antiquity rippling around him as he said coldly: "Battle Saint Ancestor, do not think yourself invincible under heaven. If a true war breaks out, the Great Cataclysm of the Mythical Epoch will be your precedent."
Tai Sheng Huang sneered: "Oh, really? If Shidai himself said those words, we might still have some apprehension. But you? Forgive my bluntness—without Shidai, if you dared to unleash the Mythical Great Cataclysm upon our Pangu Universe at the end of the Mythical Epoch, all of you would perish!"
From beginning to end, the person Tai Sheng Huang and the others feared most was only one—Shidai!
Shidai's existence truly suppressed all eras. He had even incited the Eight Desolate Ancient Universes to attack the Primordial Immortal World, rousing the most terrifying hidden supreme evils from past and present to join forces and attack the Pangu Universe along the River of Time.
Otherwise, the Heavenly Emperor back then would not have been powerless to intervene elsewhere, entering the River of Time alone to block all those most terrifying existences.
The Strongest Emperor Saint snorted coldly: "In fact, even if our Ancient Universe had no Shidai, you would still be no match. If Shidai were to act, all of you would be reduced to ashes."
The Alien Ancient Universe had dominated the Chaos Sea for who knew how many epochal eras. Itsheritage / foundation was unimaginably terrifying, fundamentally unknowable.
On the surface, it seemed the Primordial Immortal World held the upper hand, but whether that was truly the case, no one could say for sure.
The world speculated that theheritage / foundation of the Alien Ancient Universe might not be inferior to that of the Primordial Immortal World. Moreover, Shidai was too terrifying—he had personally brought about the Mythical Great Cataclysm upon the Pangu Universe.
"Oh, is that so? Today, this lord would like to see your capabilities."
The Heaven-Defying War Lord spoke, taking a step forward. With a tremendous boom, the entire Ten Thousand Ancient Hall shook.
Infinite battle qi manifested, enveloping everyone and evolving into a boundless War Realm, reinforced by the rules of colossi from antiquity, indestructible and eternal.
Silently, the Heaven-Defying War Lord manifested a Heaven-Defying War Halberd in his hand and, with simple brutality, cleaved toward Saint Demon Emperor.
