"Cosmos Creation!"
The moment this ultimate forbidden divine ability was unleashed, especially by Ye Chen who was at the Extreme Realm Quasi-Giant level, its might truly reached the level of a colossus from antiquity. As it descended upon the Ancient Sovereign Great Dao Rule Projection, it was like a genuine Ancient Chaos Universe crashing down, crushing everything in its path.
"An Ancient Chaos Universe?"
"No, it's an evolution of a chaos universe, but it feels incredibly real, no less than the Lord of the Ten Thousand Ancient Metropolis's 'Ten Thousand Ancient Universe Sphere'."
"It's powerful. Even we sense a threat from it."
The Venerable Ones exclaimed in shock, and even the colossi from antiquity marveled, for beings as mighty as them could feel a genuine sense of danger, a true threat to their immortal, eternal existence.
The Lord of the Ten Thousand Ancient Metropolis watched intently, feeling that this move was very similar to his Ten Thousand Ancient Universe Sphere. However, by comparison, he clearly sensed that Ye Chen's Cosmos Creation seemed more complete, more real. Once it reached the level of a colossus from antiquity and was unleashed, it would undoubtedly be even more terrifying.
Boom—
The Ancient Sovereign Great Dao Rule Projection was powerful, but its defensive capabilities ultimately fell far short of a true colossus from antiquity. Under this Cosmos Creation, it completely exploded, shattered to pieces.
Ye Chen immediately expanded his Tenfold Divine Halo, devouring it entirely.
Along with it came a vast, boundless surge of Great Dao power, wildly churning and surging within his body.
At this moment, Tai Sheng Huang appeared once more, directly suppressing the power for him, frowning as he said, "This is very dangerous for you."
Ye Chen replied helplessly, "Teacher, I have no choice. If I don't devour it like this, it will just recover cyclically. Moreover, a single Ancient Sovereign Great Dao Rule Projection is simply not enough to help me break through my Extreme Realm shackles. I need several more to achieve that."
Tai Sheng Huang fell silent for a moment before saying, "Very well. Since that's the case, this teacher will slay a few more for you."
Boom—
This colossus from antiquity displayed peerless, matchless might, striking horizontally at another Ancient Sovereign Great Dao Rule Projection. In just a few short exchanges, he suppressed it, demonstrating supreme, overwhelming power.
Ye Chen seized the opportunity to devour it once again.
Moreover, the Battle Saint Ancestor and the Defying War Lord also took action.
Half a day later, Ye Chen had devoured a total of four Ancient Sovereign Great Dao Rule Projections, all of which were suppressed.
The three colossi from antiquity had established supreme Great Dao seals within his body.
As time passed, at the deepest part of the ancient path, suns exploded one after another, bright moons fell, and stars perished.
One supreme Great Dao Rule Projection after another disintegrated and crumbled.
The Tenth Ancient Pass completely collapsed.
The moment the pass shattered, it did not recover. However, the final Ancient Sovereign Great Dao Rule Projection suddenly had eyes filled with endless spiritual light, as if intelligence had been awakened. It looked beyond the pass and abruptly let out a soft sigh. "You are all mistaken. You should not have done this. In the end, you will all regret it."
The expressions of the Venerable Ones changed.
The Giants also tensed up. What did these words mean?
Eternal Life Divine Sovereign frowned. "What do you mean by that?"
Boom—
The Ancient Sovereign Great Dao Rule Projection, however, exploded with a thunderous roar.
Violet Firmament Immortal King sneered coldly. "A thing that tries to mystify and deceive."
Having reached his level of cultivation, hailed as one of the very pinnacles of the Chaos Sea, aside from a handful like the Heavenly Emperor, the Primordial Ancestor, the Immortal Ancestor, and the Universe Great Emperor, who could possibly stand above them?
They feared nothing at all.
Led by the Giants, they opened the final pass.
All living beings watched, and all factions across the Chaos Sea focused their attention.
The final barrier had finally been breached. Was what lay beyond the pass truly the Origin Land?
Had they waited through countless ancient epochs, through endless ages, finally arriving at this moment?
At this moment, within the Primordial Immortal Realm, at the very end of the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes', an invincible existence from antiquity suddenly sighed. "Has this day finally come?"
Deep within the Chaos Sea, the Universe Great Emperor, hailed as the strongest, most invincible being throughout the ages of the Chaos Sea, the absolute ruler of an Ancient Chaos Universe, gazed towards the deepest part of the Origin Ancient Path at this very moment, his gaze profound and complex.
Within a separated tributary of the River of Time, a heroic figure bearing a massive heavenly stele stained with Emperor's blood stood. Before him were supreme existences from various eras, all blocked by him, unable to flow downstream.
He suddenly looked back and said, "It has finally come."
At this time, deep within an alien Ancient Universe, within a ancestral temple at the universe's origin core, the Primordial Ancestor, hailed as the greatest hidden hand throughout the ages, suddenly spoke. "Having waited for countless ancient epochs, this day has finally arrived!"
"I have long anticipated this!"
...
The cosmic phantom of the Chaos Burial Ground was silently, imperceptibly approaching the deepest part of the Origin Ancient Path.
Several Ancient Heavenly Sovereigns were gazing at what lay beyond the pass.
With no further obstruction from the pass, there was only pitch-black darkness, with an eerie, mysterious aura rippling within.
The Giants and Venerable Ones stood firm. They had broken through all the passes and saw what lay beyond.
Behind the Tenth Ancient Pass, there was no legendary Origin Land. On the contrary, there was only infinite, endless darkness.
However, the Giants were not surprised or doubtful.
Rumors said that to truly penetrate the Origin Land, breaking through was one thing; a correct guiding object was also needed—the Origin Sacred Artifacts!
Only by gathering all the Origin Sacred Artifacts could one truly penetrate the Origin Sacred Land.
The Lord of the Ten Thousand Ancient Metropolis said, "Esteemed ones, please sacrifice your Origin Sacred Artifacts."
"That is only right."
Finality Immortal Venerable was the first to act. With a flick of his finger, a Chaos Origin Pearl appeared, carrying boundless metallic aura. It was clearly the Chaos Metal Pearl, one of the eight origin elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Lightning, Yin, and Yang.
The Lord of the Ten Thousand Ancient Metropolis also sacrificed the Origin Sacred Artifact he mastered—the Chaos Earth Pearl.
Flame Emperor sacrificed his Origin Sacred Artifact—the Chaos Fire Pearl.
Tai Sheng Huang sacrificed his Origin Sacred Artifacts—the Chaos Yin Pearl and the Chaos Yang Pearl. He alone mastered two Origin Sacred Artifacts.
Swish—
Eternal Life Divine Sovereign acted, flicking out the Chaos Wood Pearl with a finger.
Seeing this, the various Giants couldn't help but nod. No wonder he was hailed as Eternal Life Divine Sovereign and had remained immortal throughout the ages. So he had mastered the Chaos Wood Pearl, the one most brimming with vitality.
The Battle Saint Ancestor looked at Ye Chen and said, "You should sacrifice yours as well. It's fine."
Under the watchful eyes of all parties, Ye Chen nodded, stepped forward, and from between his brows flew out the Chaos Lightning Pearl and the Chaos Water Pearl. Moreover, the Eternal Crown also appeared—a total of three Origin Sacred Artifacts.
However, what surprised Ye Chen at this moment was that the Moon Mark was trembling, faintly resonating with the various Origin Sacred Artifacts.
This... seemed to also be an Origin Sacred Artifact, yet also seemed not to be, for it did not fly out.
The various parties were astonished. Battle Saint King actually possessed three Origin Sacred Artifacts alone! Truly a figure of heaven-defying fortune!
At this moment, the eight Chaos Origin Pearls were assembled, along with the Eternal Crown, an Origin Sacred Artifact forged from the gathering of the Nine Chaos Immortal Metals.
Nine Origin Sacred Artifacts.
But it was not enough. Legend said that the Origin Sacred Artifacts scattered across the Chaos Sea numbered a full forty-nine.
This was consistent with the number of Ancient Chaos Universes.
But Ye Chen knew that since the Giants intended to open the final barrier, they must have already met the corresponding conditions.
