"Battle Saint King, I will fight you to the death!"
Jiyuan Huangzun roared, forced to watch everything unfold, powerless to intervene.
Outside, Ye Chen exerted tremendous force, shattering Jiyuan Huangzun's Ten Thousand Ancient Times Dao weapon-grade battle saber into numerous fragments, even pulverizing the weapon's divine spirit.
At the same time, he retrieved the similarly shattered and broken Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd that belonged to the Formless Monarch. Sensing the faint response from the halberd's divine spirit, he declared, "Senior Primordial Battle Body, I will restore you to life!"
Boom—
On this day, Ye Chen forcibly refined the Giant's battle saber, melting it down to fuse with the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd.
This forging process was almost no less demanding than crafting a true Ten Thousand Ancient Times Dao weapon, taking even more time than forging a Giant's battle armor.
Throughout, he continuously inscribed one profound and unfathomable Chaos Rune after another, an endless stream of Emperor characters falling upon the weapon.
After a full thousand years, the Giant's battle saber was completely melted down. Its divine spirit transformed into a vast, surging vital essence, merging with the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd to become a brand-new battle halberd.
Rumble—
The moment the forging succeeded, a terrifying aura instantly rippled forth, erupting from the Immortal King's cave abode and drawing down a boundless heavenly tribulation.
The entire Pangu Universe trembled. All sides watched, shocked by the sight of the endless heavenly tribulation that made even Emperors and Quasi-Giants tremble with fear—it belonged to the level of the Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giants.
"Has someone become a Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giant? No, not quite. It must be a Dao weapon ascending, becoming a Ten Thousand Ancient Times Dao weapon!"
An Emperor said gravely.
By now, all parties across the heavens knew who was forging the Ten Thousand Ancient Times Dao weapon—it was undoubtedly the Battle Saint King.
The vast heavenly tribulation could not be adequately described as blotting out the sky and sun, for the area it covered was simply too immense, exceeding half of the Myriad Domains of the heavens.
Naturally, Ye Chen would not undergo the tribulation within the Pangu Universe. He left the universe, venturing into the Chaos Sea to allow the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd to undergo the tribulation's baptism.
The tribulation was endless, its momentum terrifying, far grander than the Emperor Tribulation one undergoes when proving the Dao to become an Emperor. It naturally alarmed all sides of the Chaos Sea.
Emperors across the heavens watched from afar, Quasi-Giants observed intently, and Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giants also kept their attention fixed.
From a distance, one could see a simple yet majestic great halberd pierce into the heart of the boundless heavenly tribulation, enduring the trial and baptism of countless colossal dragon-like tribulation bolts. All knew this was about to become a Ten Thousand Ancient Times Dao weapon.
Some Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giants were almost moved to act. During the Blood-Stained Epoch, even beings as powerful as them faced great danger. They did not wish for anyone to successfully refine such a weapon, fearing it might be used against them in a future battle, posing a threat.
Of course, they also hoped to seize it for themselves.
An additional Ten Thousand Ancient Times Dao weapon would provide a significant boost to one's strength, enough to tempt even the Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giants.
However, when all sides saw that the one refining the Dao weapon was Ye Chen, the human Chaos Giant, they almost simultaneously fell silent.
Should they still make a move?
Not long ago, Ye Chen's fearsome reputation had spread far and wide. He had suppressed the alien Giant Jiyuan Huangzun, even fought one against three without falling behind, and retreated unscathed, displaying absolutely formidable cultivation.
Now, who would dare lightly provoke his wrath and oppose this peerless, terrifying figure?
Even the Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giants were quite wary.
Alien Ancient Universe.
Ye Chen's refinement of the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd naturally alarmed them as well.
Within the universe's origin, one Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giant after another opened their eyes within ancestral temples, their gazes piercing through the universe's boundary walls to witness the scenes unfolding in the Chaos Sea.
"What a bold Battle Saint King, daring to leave the Pangu Universe alone to refine a Ten Thousand Ancient Times Dao weapon. Does he not hold our Ancient Universe in any regard?" A cold voice spoke—it was none other than Yuan Chu Di Zu.
Having watched helplessly as the Battle Saint King retreated unscathed last time had filled him with extreme fury.
Now, seeing the Battle Saint King again naturally evoked the feeling of enemies meeting, eyes turning red with hatred.
"He is the key figure of the Pangu Universe, hailed as the Ten Thousand Ancient Times' strongest prodigy, the Battle Saint King who rivals the Heavenly Emperor?"
There were also alien Giants who had slumbered for many years, only truly awakening during the Blood-Stained Epoch. Some had even remained asleep into the Blood-Stained Epoch. If not for theastonishment events of Ye Chen's actions in the Alien Ancient Universe a thousand years ago, these supreme Giants who had lived through unknown numbers of epochs might not have been roused.
Now, seeing Ye Chen in the Chaos Sea, having the Primordial Battle Body Great Halberd undergo tribulation, they revealed a trace of astonishment.
They could all tell that Ye Chen was very young, even excessively so. His blood and qi contained a unique vitality, which was difficult to fathom.
A junior who had cultivated for barely over a hundred or two hundred thousand years had actually reached this step, and even invaded the Alien Ancient Universe to suppress Jiyuan Huangzun. What a monstrous talent.
Even Giants of their stature felt inferior.
Yuan Chu Di Zu said coldly, "The Battle Saint King has truly grown up. If we continue to let him be, what if one day he reaches the level of the Primordial Lord or the Heavenly Emperor?"
His words fell, and the universe's origin fell into silence.
The Primordial Lord and the Heavenly Emperor were truly invincible existences. If the Battle Saint King reached that step, and with the Pangu Universe also having a Heavenly Emperor, two invincible beings of the Chaos Sea would be enough to fear no threat from the Alien Ancient Universe, even posing a massive threat to the entire Alien Ancient Universe.
Yuan Ding Di Zhu said, "Take advantage now, while the Battle Saint King has left the Pangu Universe. Strike and kill him."
At this moment, Qingtian Dadi said lightly, "We cannot kill him. It might even alert the enemy. The Battle Saint King dares to come out alone into the Chaos Sea to refine a Ten Thousand Ancient Times Dao weapon; he must certainly have the confidence to leave. On the contrary, we would only waste our efforts in vain."
Yuan Chu Di Zu snorted coldly. "In that case, let us invade the Pangu Universe."
"No." An alien Giant interjected. "If two or three of us Giants invade, that's one thing. But if the number is greater, the Primordial Immortal Realm will not sit idly by; they will certainly send troops in support. However, with only two or three Giants invading the Pangu Universe, not only would we fail to kill the Battle Saint King, we might even be in great danger. Do not forget, whether it is the Battle Saint King or the Human Sovereign, the reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor, they are both stronger than ordinary Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giants. They belong to the Primordial Giant level."
These words caused the universe's origin to fall into silence once more.
Yes, if too many Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giants were dispatched, the Primordial Immortal Realm would intervene.
If not enough were sent, they would pose no threat to the Pangu Universe.
On the contrary, they might even fall into unnecessary crisis.
The Battle Saint King and the Human Sovereign were both Primordial Giant-level existences. Their strength was beyond doubt.
The Battle Saint King had suppressed Jiyuan Huangzun, fought one against three, and left unscathed.
The Human Sovereign had severed Ten Thousand Ancient Times with a single sword, preventing three Giants from breaking through for a time.
Their formidable power was clearly displayed!
Yuan Chu Di Zu was a radical. "Just obliterate the Pangu Universe. Although the Primordial Immortal Realm is strong, our Ancient Universe is not weaker. If they dare intervene, we go to war directly."
At this moment, a Primordial Giant was disturbed and spoke gravely, "That is not advisable. Our Ancient Universe is not yet prepared. We must not disrupt the plan. Moreover, if we do so, all those Ten Thousand Ancient Times Giants who left the Pangu Universe will return one by one, which would instead be very unfavorable for our Ancient Universe."
With his words, even Yuan Chu Di Zu fell silent.
