There was no doubt that the hidden reserves of the Alien Ancient Universe were continuously emerging.
One after another, colossi from antiquity appeared, and even several Primordial Giants who had been slumbering in the deepest layers were startled awake and began to stir.
At this moment, at least over twelve Alien Race colossi emerged from the Alien Ancient Universe one after another. Combined with the Alien Race colossi already in the Chaos Sea, this was enough to make anyone's scalp tingle.
Throughout the ages, the accumulation of the Alien Ancient Universe was actually so terrifying—the number of colossi from antiquity had surpassed twenty.
What an astonishing number this was! In a typical Ancient Chaos Universe, the number of colossi from antiquity was merely one or two at most.
Among them, four were distinctly among the ranks of Primordial Giants. They led eight other colossi from antiquity as they appeared, swiftly joining forces with Hongtian Sovereign and the others. Altogether, there were eighteen colossi from antiquity, four of whom were Primordial Giants—a number of giants that could be called the most terrifying.
Even Ye Chen's expression changed slightly. As powerful as he was, he dared not claim to be invincible.
What was important was that he still hadn't seen the Qingtian Great Emperor or the Liudao Great Emperor emerge, nor had the Primordial One—the greatest hidden master of the Ten Thousand Ancient Times—appeared.
It was clear that the true hidden reserves of the Alien Ancient Universe were far more astonishing than imagined; there were still other colossi from antiquity who had not yet emerged.
The Six Immortal Kings of the Primordial Immortal World behind Ye Chen felt this even more keenly, sensing an immense crisis.
"Alien Race, do you truly intend to ignite an extinction-level war across the Chaos Sea?" Pan Dao Immortal King's expression was gloomy. With so many colossi from antiquity acting together, there truly was the danger of annihilating the Chaos Sea.
At this moment, he also crushed several Immortal King tokens.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—
From within the Primordial Immortal World, several supreme Immortal Kings emerged one after another. The leader among them was none other than Termination Immortal Venerable, a Primordial Immortal King, followed by seven other supreme Immortal Kings. In terms of numbers, they were only slightly inferior to the Alien Race side.
Witnessing the Alien Race side dispatch so many colossi from antiquity—a full eighteen, an unprecedented number, even greater than during the Mythical Great Destruction launched against the Pangu Universe—Termination Immortal Venerable's expression also darkened considerably.
"Greetings, Senior Termination Immortal Venerable," Ye Chen said very politely, cupping his hands in salute.
Termination Immortal Venerable looked at Ye Chen and sighed softly. "It has only been a mere hundred thousand years or so since we last met, yet you have reached this step, making me feel ashamed of my own inferiority. You and I are both Primordial Giants; we can address each other as Fellow Daoists as peers. There is no need to call me 'Senior'." In the cultivation world, achievement commanded respect; whoever had the bigger fist spoke. Moreover, Ye Chen's current strength was no weaker, and perhaps even stronger, than many Primordial Giants.
Ye Chen did not refuse at this point. At this level, sometimes even if one refused, the other party would insist—this was an unwritten rule of the cultivation world.
He said, "Can you buy me some time? I wish to slaughter a few more Alien Race colossi." His words were calm, but their meaning was unyieldingly firm, sending a chill through the hearts of those present. At this stage, he still wanted to continue slaughtering Alien Race colossi?
Hongtian Sovereign's expression was cold. "Battle Saint King, you are indeed strong, perhaps even stronger than us. But our numbers surpass yours. This Sovereign, together with just one other Primordial Giant, would be enough to restrain you. Make a straightforward choice: release all the colossi from antiquity of our Ancient Universe, and we can let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, today we shall annihilate you all, along with the Pangu Universe!"
"Battle Saint King!" Several Immortal Kings also looked at Ye Chen. At this current stage, their expressions were grave, not wishing for war to break out lightly.
The reason was simple: the number of colossi gathered on both sides was simply too great, exceeding thirty. Once war broke out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Ye Chen fell silent. He very much wanted to seize the opportunity to kill a few more Alien Race colossi, but it was clear that the Immortal Kings did not wish to continue the battle. A giant-level conflict on this scale would pose a life-threatening danger even to them.
Having lived long enough to become ancient fossils—old but not dead, thus crafty—these Immortal Kings naturally did not wish for any accidents to occur.
With a light sigh, he could only agree to the demand, even though in his heart he was extremely unwilling to release the four suppressed Alien Race colossi, including Eternal Life Divine Emperor.
An Alien Race colossus spoke up at this moment: "No! You must also hand over the Battle Saint King! Otherwise, the Primordial Immortal World awaits the universe-destroying war of our Ancient Universe!"
At this, Hongtian Sovereign's expression changed, as did the other five Alien Race colossi who had just been fighting.
Perhaps this Primordial Giant did not understand the Battle Saint King's temperament, but they all knew that getting him to agree to release Eternal Life Divine Emperor and the other three colossi from antiquity was already quite remarkable. To demand that the Battle Saint King submit without a fight and deliver himself? Was that possible?
It would likely thoroughly enrage the Battle Saint King, and the consequences would be even more severe than imagined.
Sure enough, Ye Chen's expression immediately darkened. Sweeping his gaze over this Alien Race Primordial Giant, he erupted: "Want me to submit without a fight? Then let's just start the war! No need for all this pointless talk!"
Ye Chen roared and immediately took action, instantly shattering this realm and affecting all directions.
He was the first to strike, and his manner was supremely overbearing, directly targeting that Alien Race Primordial Giant who had demanded his surrender.
Who was he? An invincible Chaos Giant, a peerless war god figure infinitely stronger than Eternal Life Divine Emperor or the Primordial Ancestor of the Heaven-Man Race. And now, some Alien Race being dared to tell him to submit without a fight? Did they truly not regard him, the Battle Saint King, with any respect?
Even though that Alien Race Primordial Giant reacted instantly and attempted to block, he was still forced to spit blood, caught completely off guard!
If he weren't also a Primordial Giant, any ordinary colossus from antiquity would likely have been instantly blasted apart by Ye Chen in a single exchange.
But even so, it was not enough. Ye Chen struck within the space between life and death. The supremely powerful, invincible Alien Race Primordial Giant nearly had his head blown apart by Ye Chen. That single fist shattered his shoulder, displaying a might that overshadowed the world.
Almost simultaneously, the other Primordial Giants and colossi from antiquity shot into the sky. The most terrifying war of the Ten Thousand Ancient Times erupted, countless times more intense than before.
Because the combined number of colossi from antiquity on both sides exceeded thirty, even approaching forty.
Especially since this location was quite close to the core of the Chaos Sea, where multiple Ancient Chaos Universes existed.
Under the most terrifying war of the Ten Thousand Ancient Times, surpassing even the battle against the Origin Burial Lord in the past, the various colossi were naturally alarmed immediately. They promptly communicated with the essences of their respective Ancient Chaos Universes and began to gradually move away, distancing themselves from this site of peak-level warfare.
Once caught within it, even an Ancient Chaos Universe could be blasted apart.
In a mysterious, unknown location within the Chaos Sea, where the Origin Saint Race resided, witnessing this scene, colossi of the Origin Saint Race also revealed looks of shock.
"A giant-level battle on this scale is almost no less than that great war of the past!" The Clan Lord of the Heaven Clan, one of the Eight Great Saint Races, spoke with a touch of astonishment.
Even the other six Clan Lords revealed deep shock.
From the deepest depths of the Origin Saint Race, which had not stirred for Ten Thousand Ancient Times, not even moved by the rise and fall of epochs, a pair of eyes suddenly opened, as if shaking the entire epoch and startling the entire Chaos Sea.
Whoosh—
Two beams of divine light shot out, gazing toward that battlefield from afar.
