The Primordial Immortal Realm, and indeed the entire Chaos Sea, fell into silence.
Now, the Alien Ancient Universe was attacking the Pangu Universe with an unimaginably powerful force, a situation that was fundamentally irreversible.
The various colossi from antiquity present here each had only two or three such Giants backing their respective Ancient Chaos Universes. How would they dare provoke the Alien Ancient Universe, which possessed over thirty colossi from antiquity?
Once they became enemies, regardless of victory or defeat, it would inevitably bring unimaginable, catastrophic disaster to their own Ancient Chaos Universes. There was even a high probability of retaliation leading to the collapse of their universes—a consequence no Giant was willing to bear.
Even the promise of the Chaos Heavenly Emperor was quite tempting, it was still the same.
Even the Primordial Immortal Realm, hailed as the number one Ancient Chaos Universe in the Chaos Sea, was deeply deliberating, with its rulers, the Immortal Kings, giving it profound consideration.
It wasn't that they were unwilling to help the Pangu Universe, but they had to consider the consequences.
All because the power currently displayed by the Alien Ancient Universe was far too astonishing. Over thirty colossi from antiquity had been mobilized, including multiple first-generation Giants and existences similar to Mo Daozi. With such a lineup, they were fully capable of launching an assault on the Primordial Immortal Realm itself.
Even during the Mythical Great Destruction period, the Alien Ancient Universe had never deployed so many colossi from antiquity. It was as if they were exhausting their entire foundation.
In fact, even the Primordial Immortal Realm couldn't be certain it could suppress the Alien Ancient Universe. Once war broke out, the consequences for the Primordial Immortal Realm would be severe.
At that time, the terrifying outcome might very well include the fall of Immortal Kings, the death of numerous immortals, and the extinction of over half of the immortal domains.
For the Primordial Immortal Realm, this too would be an unimaginably heavy price.
Right now, the Alien Ancient Universe was only attacking the Pangu Universe. The Primordial Immortal Realm could not possibly subject itself to such a grave threat for the sake of another Ancient Chaos Universe.
Even Immortal Kings like Hunshi Immortal King, Pandao Immortal King, and the Finality Immortal Venerable, who were on very good terms with Ye Chen, fell abruptly silent. Powerful as they were, they could not sway the overall situation of the entire Primordial Immortal Realm, nor could they compel the other Immortal Kings to act—unless the Immortal Ancestor himself intervened.
The Immortal Ancestor, the First Immortal of All Time, held supreme, decisive authority over the Primordial Immortal Realm, much like the Primordial Progenitor did for the Alien Ancient Universe.
However, the Immortal Ancestor had already vanished for many epochs.
There were rumors he had entered the deepest part of the 'Forty-Nine Immortal Passes' secret realm, rumors he had pursued the secret of eternity and disappeared without a trace, rumors he had entered the most mysterious 'Eternal Unknown Land'...
In the end, there was only one point: no one could contact the Immortal Ancestor, not even descendants of Immortal Kings like Hongtian Immortal King.
This resulted in over half of the Immortal Kings of the Primordial Immortal Realm maintaining their silence, withholding their opinions, unwilling to dispatch forces to aid the Pangu Universe.
At this moment, even someone as domineering and forceful as the Divine Emperor fell silent.
He was forceful, he was domineering, but he was not brainless.
On the contrary, his ability to become a peerless Giant, whose combat prowess was revered across the Chaos Sea, was proof enough of his capabilities. It wasn't achieved through brute force alone; he possessed wisdom far beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Although he was unwilling to see the Pangu Universe destroyed, he was also unwilling for his own Ancient Chaos Universe to be threatened because of aiding the Pangu Universe.
Divine Emperor's Son looked at his father, the Divine Emperor, who had always been peerlessly domineering, and sensing the gravity of the situation, let out a soft sigh.
On the other side, Chu Shenjun did the same, sighing lightly.
With the Primordial Immortal Ancestor absent, although Hongtian Immortal King, as a descendant of the Immortal Ancestor, was powerful—a generation's Immortal King and the ruler of the Immortal Ancestor Clan—he could not command the Immortal Kings of the Primordial Immortal Realm to aid the Pangu Universe. As the foremost figure of the Immortal Ancestor Clan, he also would not do so, having to consider many aspects.
Once one reached the level of a colossus from antiquity, there were far too many considerations—unless one was a solitary Giant with no attachments, then there would be no worries at all, though one would still consider oneself.
In short, there was only silence. No one responded.
This scene was within expectations, yet it was ultimately somewhat disappointing.
Ye Chen swept his gaze over the various Giants. Those colossi from antiquity who wished to help could only lower their heads at this moment, as if they dared not meet his gaze directly, their hearts filled with shame.
He let out a soft sigh. No one was willing to step forward to offer aid.
Boom—
The Pangu Pass was shattered and splintered. Ten Thousand Ancient Dao Blood splattered—the blood shed by Giants of the Pangu Universe like the Battle Saint Ancestor, Tai Sheng Huang, and the Human Emperor. Powerful as they were, they faced the most terrifying predicament.
"I'm sorry," the Finality Immortal Venerable sighed. In this situation, he too could only be powerless despite his intentions.
The Lord of the Ten Thousand Ancient Metropolis sighed softly.
The Divine Emperor remained silent.
"No need for apologies. I respect all of your choices. You are all constrained by circumstances!" Ye Chen knew their intentions and did not press them.
"Hahahaha, Chaos Heavenly Emperor, this time our Ancient Universe is sparing no effort, playing all our cards! No matter how formidable the fortune your Pangu Universe possesses, it is destined for complete annihilation!" Hongtian Dominator laughed heartily, as if he could already see the scenes of the Pangu Universe's destruction.
In this era, the Alien Giants were attacking the Pangu Universe, with not just one or two half-step overlord-level existences personally arriving. They could be described as killing gods if gods blocked them, killing buddhas if buddhas blocked them. Searching across the vast expanse of time, ancient and modern, how many could stop them?
An ancient Immortal Venerable, who had not emerged even when his blood stained an epoch, was now stirred. His gaze pierced through the barrier of the Immortal World, looking far into the Chaos Sea, witnessing the perilous scenes unfolding in the Pangu Universe.
This forty-ninth Ancient Chaos Universe born from the Chaos Sea's creation, suspected to be the only eternal Pangu's place of nirvana, which had managed to survive even the Mythical Great Destruction—was it finally going to collapse today?
Boom—
Blood light splashed, accompanied by a rich, chaotic radiance.
It belonged to Ye Chen. Mo Daozi had found an opportunity, dealing him a heavy blow, piercing through his abdomen and causing torrents of Chaos Saint Blood to spill.
Mo Daozi's demonic shadow loomed like a heavenly mountain, possessing aoppressive pressure / sense of oppression that even colossi from antiquity feared. He pressed forward step by step, speaking coldly, "Chaos Heavenly Emperor, surrender. If you are willing to commit suicide, this venerable one can guarantee to let some people of the Pangu Universe survive, allowing the human race to continue."
"Suicide? Do you think that's possible?" Ye Chen said coldly, with a hint of mockery. At his level, he would not be easily swayed.
Moreover, he did not believe that given the alien race's nature, they would truly keep their promise.
"If the Pangu Universe is ultimately destined to be destroyed, I can guarantee that before its fall, I can at the very least kill several of your Alien Giants. I might even be able to drag you down with me to serve as my funeral companion."
A calm threat, yet one of immense weight.
Others might not believe it, but when the Chaos Heavenly Emperor spoke, few disbelieved, because he indeed had the qualification and the strength.
After a brief silence, Mo Daozi suddenly spoke, "Actually, suicide isn't necessarily required, Chaos Heavenly Emperor. As long as you are willing to submit to our Ancient Universe, like the Green Heaven Great Emperor and the Six Paths Great Emperor of old, you can avoid death. You could even gradually establish an ancestral temple at the universe's origin, becoming an eternal, immortal existence within our Ancient Universe. Moreover, if you can persuade other Giants of the Pangu Universe like Tai Sheng Huang, the Battle Saint Ancestor, the Defying Heaven War Lord, the Human Emperor, the Flame Emperor, and others to submit to our Ancient Universe, we naturally will not destroy the Pangu Universe. What do you say?"
As his voice fell, the various Giants abruptly changed expression.
The alien race actually wanted the Chaos Heavenly Emperor to submit?
The Immortal Kings also changed countenance.
