At the same time, Ye Chen also understood the general situation: "No wonder this guy is being hunted. He just attained the Dao and became an Emperor not long ago, having just passed through his Emperor Tribulation. He's injured, hasn't achieved comprehensive Great Perfection, and still needs a period of transition. It's clear he didn't attain the Dao and become an Emperor within the Pangu Universe, otherwise there would have been stellar celebrations and irrigation from the Universe's origin. Even if he didn't become a Great Perfection Emperor Realm cultivator in the shortest time, he would have replenished considerable power and recovered from his injuries. Now, two true Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes are hunting him... Hah, and there are actually three more Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes quietly following behind. That's quite the lineup."
What kind of person was he? With a single glance, he saw through all the enemy's numbers. Behind the two Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes hunting Shen Rong, three more Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes were stealthily following.
Added together, that made a full five Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes.
They probably wanted to lure the snake out of its hole, to draw out more Human Race Supremes and capture them all in one net.
That was quite the clever scheme.
However, it was destined that the scheme of these five Supremes would not truly come to fruition.
Because he, Ye Chen, had arrived.
Treading upon the Chaos Great Dao, he charged toward Shen Rong's location: "Today, this Sovereign will see just where you few Supremes get the gall to dare hunt down a Human Race Supreme of my Pangu Universe."
Shen Rong was in a particularly sorry state today. He never imagined he would one day encounter such a tragic, helpless, and desperate situation.
Especially since he was in a rather weakened state, both physically and mentally, not long after successfully attaining the Dao as a Supreme and completing his tribulation.
A one-on-one fight would have been one thing. As a Great Emperor Supreme, he possessed an invincible heart and feared no battle against those of the same rank. But he never, ever expected the enemy to send two Supremes jointly hunting him.
Two Supremes, and both were Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes. Even if Shen Rong had heaven-reaching abilities, he was absolutely no match.
"Damn it! Not long after attaining the Dao and becoming an Emperor, I run into two Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes from the alien race. If I had waited until my Emperor Dao was perfected, would I fear them?" Shen Rong gritted his teeth. Ultimately, although he had attained the Dao and become an Emperor, he hadn't done so within the Pangu Universe. Naturally, he hadn't triggered stellar celebrations or received irrigation from the Universe's origin, and hadn't immediately reached the Great Perfection Emperor Realm.
The two Supremes before him, however, were both Great Emperors at the Great Perfection Supreme level, stronger than him. Moreover, they were attacking him simultaneously. He was far from a match. Continuing like this, the only path was to fall.
Unless other Supremes came to support him.
But this place was far from the Pangu Universe. Even if he sent a message for the Great Emperor Supremes of the Pangu Universe to come aid him, it would require some time. He wasn't sure he could hold out that long.
Besides, the current situation in the Pangu Universe was also quite perilous, with the alien race watching like a tiger eyeing its prey.
During the great war of the past hundred thousand years, the ancient Giants of the alien Ancient Universes had been reviving and emerging. The Pangu Universe's situation was similar. Supremes didn't dare come out easily, otherwise they would likely be ambushed and killed by hostile Supremes.
Therefore, Shen Rong also didn't dare to easily contact the Pangu Universe to request support.
"Damn it. Although I was fortunate to succeed in attaining the Dao as a Supreme, I don't know if the others succeeded. If they are discovered, the situation won't be good either. I must lead these Supremes from the alien race away from this domain. I can't let them know there are others attempting to break through to the Emperor Realm." He gritted his teeth fiercely.
Boom—
Shen Rong clashed head-on with the two alien Supremes, blasting apart numerous worlds and heavens that were gestating and forming within the Chaos Sea. His entire person was sent flying back violently. Blood seeped from every pore on his body; he had clearly become a man of blood, his flesh on the verge of splitting, nearly torn apart. Yet he also used this force to madly charge toward the distance.
"What a pity. The Chaos Primordial Great World I was guarding was breached. I'm afraid the River of Heaven Supreme is also in danger. I've implicated him and the River of Heaven Great World."
Shen Rong sighed. He had originally been in secluded cultivation within a Chaos Primordial Great World not far from here—the River of Heaven Great World—where he attained the Dao as a Supreme.
To avoid absorbing the origin of this Chaos Primordial Great World, the River of Heaven, he had no choice but to leave, entering the Chaos Sea to choose a place to undergo tribulation and break through. Otherwise, how would he have alerted the Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes of the alien race, who then hunted him down?
Because it had once sheltered him, a Human Race Supreme, the River of Heaven Great World had also suffered invasion by the alien race. Its current situation was likely quite dangerous. In these extremely turbulent times within the Chaos Sea, there was a constant risk of a Great World being destroyed at any moment.
Regarding this, Shen Rong's heart was willing but his strength was insufficient. After all, he himself was currently struggling to survive, let alone help the River of Heaven Great World escape danger.
All he could do was try his best to lure these Supremes from the alien race away from the River of Heaven Great World's location.
Compared to Shen Rong, who was severely wounded and had become a man of blood, the two alien Supremes chasing behind were also somewhat disheveled. Although Shen Rong had just been promoted, fighting desperately had still made the two of them pay some price.
Moreover, when you got down to it, Shen Rong's father was the Slaying Immortal Great Emperor, a famously powerful Ancient Great Emperor of the Mythological Era, an existence at the true peerless Giant level.
Shen Rong, relying on the Giant bloodline of the Slaying Immortal Great Emperor and the Eight Slaying Immortal Forms left behind, was able to unleash astonishing combat power even after attaining the Dao as a Supreme. This caused the two alien Supremes to pay no small price during the pursuit.
Naturally, after arduously hunting Shen Rong without success for so long, and not seeing any other Human Race Great Emperors from the Pangu Universe come out to support Shen Rong, their plan to annihilate more Human Race Supremes or Supreme seeds showed signs of falling apart. The several alien Supremes couldn't help but grow somewhat irritable.
"Forget it, let's kill this newly promoted Human Race Supreme first!"
The two alien Supremes exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with a cold, sinister intent, their minds in agreement.
As the words fell, the Supreme Emperor Laws on the two alien Supremes suddenly intensified greatly. The Chaos Sea exploded layer upon layer, stirring up endless, terrifying waves. Immediately, the figures of the two Supremes shot forth like lightning, charging toward Shen Rong's location.
Shen Rong, who was currently fleeing for his life, clearly sensed the terrifying Supreme fluctuations from behind. His expression changed slightly, and he abruptly accelerated.
However, he was already severely injured from being hunted by the two alien Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes, having even had his form and spirit explode several times. His Emperor Dao origin was also damaged. Accelerating like this also deepened his Dao injuries, but at the moment, he had no other choice.
Boom—
Suddenly, a Dao injury he had been suppressing erupted. Shen Rong's aura plummeted drastically, becoming listless to an unknown degree.
At this moment, one of the alien Supremes charged forward, summoning a disc that shone with Emperor light. It descended from the sky, smashing fiercely onto Shen Rong's back.
Boom—
Emperor blood splattered. A small half of Shen Rong's Emperor body exploded, a bloody mess. He plummeted from the sky into a Chaos World comparable to an Emperor's Great World. The terrifying aura directly blasted this Chaos World apart.
Just as Shen Rong fell onto a shattered supercontinent at the center of the destroyed Chaos World, the two alien Supremes also descended from the sky, looking down from a high position at the blood-covered, utterly disheveled Shen Rong. The alien Supreme who had just delivered the final blow said in a sinister, sneering tone: "Finally can't run anymore? As the offspring of the Slaying Immortal Great Emperor, you're indeed quite good. The Giant bloodline within your body must be quite excellent. Perhaps we can use it to lure out the Slaying Immortal Great Emperor."
"The Slaying Immortal Great Emperor?" The other alien Supreme sneered coldly. "He disappeared after the Mythological Era. He probably perished along with the Great Cataclysm of Myth back then. Why summon a dead man?"
"My father has not perished. He is one of the strongest Giants of all time." Only one eye remained on Shen Rong's face, emitting infinite ferocious light. From beginning to end, he did not believe his father had fallen.
The Slaying Immortal Great Emperor was one of the peerless Giants of all time. In the past, he even created the famously mighty Eight Slaying Immortal Forms, capable of slaughtering immortals and slaying gods, omnipotent, with unparalleled ferocious fame. How could he have fallen?
"Whether your father has fallen or not is not for you to decide. Better to cripple him, seal him, and hang him on the border of the universe. Let those in the Pangu Universe take a look, and see if they dare come to rescue this newly promoted Human Race Supreme," the second alien Supreme added.
"Good, that's an excellent plan, worth a try. Let's strip him of his Emperor Dao origin now, dismantle his Emperor Soul, and seal his Emperor Body."
The two alien Supremes immediately acted. Infinite Supreme Emperor Laws gathered, transforming into a massive disc and a Dao bottle, shining with blazingly intense Emperor light, suddenly blasting down toward Shen Rong below.
"Eight Slaying Immortal Forms, Immortal Slaughter!"
Shen Rong gritted his teeth fiercely, let out a roar, circulated his Supreme Emperor Power, and unleashed a forbidden Emperor Dao divine ability to meet the attack. But in an instant, it was completely dismantled, utterly unable to provide much obstruction.
He was too weak. He had just attained the Dao as a Supreme, not long after his tribulation, far from reaching the Great Perfection Emperor Realm level. Moreover, he was severely wounded. He was no match for the two alien Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes.
"Did I work so hard to succeed in attaining the Dao and becoming an Emperor, only to fall now, ending my brief life as a Supreme?"
Shen Rong watched the descent of the Supreme Emperor attack with a touch of despair. Its utterly terrifying force was enough to tear apart ten thousand worlds, as if it would grind his entire person to dust.
But at this moment, he gritted his teeth fiercely, and a sky-shaking roar erupted from the depths of his heart: "You want to kill me, Shen Rong? Dream on! Even if I die, I'll drag you alien scum down with me to be my burial companions!"
Boom—
In that instant, his entire body ignited from within and without. His form and spirit burned, releasing billions of terrifying strands of Dao-Transforming Emperor Flames. He was going to immolate himself, taking the two alien Great Perfection Emperor Realm Supremes with him to the grave.
The two alien Supremes' hearts suddenly jumped with fear. In their eyes, this newly promoted Human Race Supreme had gone completely mad, actually willing to ignite his form and spirit, forcibly transforming into the Dao.
In doing so, there would be no chance of resurrection whatsoever.
However, right at this moment, a gentle, warm hand landed on his shoulder out of thin air, revealing a face that was relatively unfamiliar, yet strangely, innately familiar: "Shen Rong, it's been many years. Your temper is still so fiery. Self-immolation is not an acceptable move."
