In the Chaos Sea, no one had expected that the Primordial Immortal Realm would go to war with the Origin Saint Race before even engaging the Alien Ancient Universe—a full-scale, intensely fierce conflict.
The expressions of the various Giants were all gloomy. They had a feeling that this great war would likely directly escalate the Blood-Stained Era into the Blood-Stained Future, affecting the entire Chaos Sea, far more intense than the struggle for the Origin Burial Lord's head back in the day.
"What should we do?"
"The Primordial Immortal Realm and the Origin Saint Race—the two great old and new overlords—going to war has too great an impact. It won't just bring the Blood-Stained Future ahead of schedule; it might even cause it to descend directly!"
"This battle will affect the entire Chaos Sea. No one will be able to avoid it!"
"Even those slumbering most deeply will likely be startled awake!"
All factions were filled with worry. The Giants' expressions were extremely grave, and they had already begun preparing to face the premature arrival of the Blood-Stained Future.
"Damnable Origin Saint Race, choosing to make a move at this time. Could it be that the Origin Saint Race is the true source of the Blood-Stained Future?" The Divine Emperor's expression was extremely dark. No matter what, he had never expected the Origin Saint Race to suddenly intervene at this moment, and to target the Primordial Immortal Realm, the current overlord power. The impact was simply too great.
Once the Blood-Stained Future descended, no one would be spared. Everything would be affected.
BOOM—
Right at this moment, an extremely terrifying fluctuation suddenly erupted from within the Chaos Sea, shaking all sides and drawing attention.
From a little-known secret realm within the Chaos Sea, a figure shot into the sky, undergoing tribulation. Countless terrifying heavenly tribulations descended, their boundless, terrifying aura flooding several surrounding realms, shocking all parties.
This was someone undergoing tribulation to prove the Half-Step Overlord fruit!
Someone was charging towards the Half-Step Overlord realm!
Who was it, choosing to charge towards Half-Step Overlord just as the Primordial Immortal Realm and the Origin Saint Race went to war?
Many were puzzled, but when they clearly saw that figure, everyone instantly recognized its true appearance and learned the identity of the tribulation undergoer.
"So it's the Profound God Ancestor of the Xuan Tribe! He's lain dormant for many years, and now he's finally charging towards Half-Step Overlord!"
All sides were astonished. The Xuan Tribe was one of the eight tribes that had defected from the Origin Saint Race in ancient times, involved in many unknown secrets. Now, the Xuan Tribe's Ancestor, the Profound God Ancestor, was also charging towards the Half-Step Overlord position.
"Yiyiyaya, it's the Ancestor!"
Yiyi exclaimed in surprise.
"The Profound God Ancestor hid deeply enough, choosing to make his charge at this time. Otherwise, the Origin Saint Race would never allow him to succeed."
Many Giants marveled. The Xuan Tribe were traitors to the Origin Saint Race. Over the years, the Origin Saint Race had been searching for the Xuan Tribe's whereabouts but had never found them.
The Profound God Ancestor had also been lying dormant. Once he charged towards Half-Step Overlord, he would inevitably be discovered by the Origin Saint Race, who would absolutely not permit his success. Thus, throughout these endless eons, he had remained hidden, never discovered.
Now, taking advantage of the war between the Origin Saint Race and the Primordial Immortal Realm, the Profound God Ancestor decisively charged towards the Half-Step Overlord position.
This way, the Profound God Ancestor had the greatest hope of a successful breakthrough.
"Damnable Profound God Ancestor, choosing to undergo tribulation at this time!" The few Half-Step Overlords of the Origin Saint Race all wore ugly expressions. This had caught them off guard.
"I'll go kill him!" One Origin Saint Race Half-Step Overlord spoke, looking towards the Profound God Ancestor undergoing tribulation, his killing intent not concealed in the slightest.
However, a Half-Step Overlord from the Immortal Dao made a move, blocking him and chuckling lightly, "Fellow Daoist, you can't be so despicable. The Profound God Ancestor is, after all, a member of your Origin Saint Race. If he becomes a Half-Step Overlord, wouldn't your Origin Saint Race also gain some face?"
"Zhuri, step aside!" The Origin Saint Race Half-Step Overlord's expression was somewhat unsightly.
The Half-Step Overlord 'Zhuri', with a cinnabar mark between his brows, sneered, "What can you do if I don't step aside, Di Sheng?"
Di Sheng, the Ancestor of the Di Tribe of the Origin Saint Race.
If the Profound God Ancestor successfully charged towards Half-Step Overlord, it would undoubtedly benefit the Primordial Immortal Realm and pose a threat to the Origin Saint Race.
Since that was the case, the Primordial Immortal Realm was naturally happy to lend the Profound God Ancestor a hand at this critical moment.
RUMBLE—
The tribulation was boundless, annihilating realms. It was the fruit of the Half-Step Overlord position.
The Profound God Ancestor had lain dormant for too many years. To evade the Origin Saint Race's pursuit, he had feigned death and slumbered, hiding from heavenly fate deduction.
Naturally, during his feigned death slumber, the Profound God Ancestor had also been deducing the Great Dao, experiencing millennia in his dreams, evolving his own supreme Great Dao, growing stronger. Now, emerging from seclusion, his Great Dao soared to the heavens, even more powerful, even more heaven-defying. He was undergoing baptism by the Chaos Sea's rules, seeking to forcibly become a true Half-Step Overlord in a short time by borrowing the heavenly tribulation.
From the deepest part of the Origin Saint Race's secret realm world, the supreme Ancestor of the Saint Race appeared, gazing into the depths of the Chaos Sea with a trace of surprise and doubt: "I never expected that fellow Profound God Ancestor would choose to undergo tribulation and charge towards Half-Step Overlord at this time. It's somewhat beyond my expectations. However, I cannot permit you to succeed."
The Xuan Tribe were a traitorous tribe. As the main tribe, the Origin Saint Race naturally would not allow their success.
But at this moment, the Immortal Ancestor manifested, gazing towards the Saint Race Ancestor in the deepest part of the Origin Saint Race's secret realm world, saying, "Dao Shi, it has been countless epochs since we last met. Why not exchange a few blows? I also wish to know if you have made any progress over these endless eons."
The Chaos Sea was shocked. The Immortal Ancestor was actively challenging the Origin Saint Race Ancestor. This was a battle between two invincible Overlords of the current era, rare throughout history. Ever since the early days of the Chaos Sea, when various powers stripped the Origin Saint Race of their Overlord status and there were Overlord-level battles, none had occurred since.
Not even during the Mythical Great Destruction launched by the Alien Ancient Universe against the Pangu Universe back then. The Heavenly Emperor was trapped, and Shi Dai never truly acted, so there had never been a truly meaningful battle between Overlord-level existences.
Now, it was about to begin.
The Origin Saint Race naturally had other Giants who left the battlefield, charging towards the location of the Profound God Ancestor's tribulation, wielding peerless war weapons of the Half-Step Overlord level, determined not to allow the Profound God Ancestor to achieve the Half-Step Overlord position.
Simultaneously, the Origin Saint Race transmitted a message to other Giants in the Chaos Sea: "Once the Profound God Ancestor dies, our race only wants his Half-Step Overlord Dao Fruit and Great Dao Imprint. We don't want the rest. You can seize them!"
These words instantly attracted the fervent gazes of countless Giants.
A Half-Step Overlord, even without the Dao Fruit and Great Dao Imprint, would leave behind a body, essence blood, divine bones, and more—all priceless treasures rarely seen in the world. Even a single strand of hair would be a supreme treasure to a Supreme Being.
Without a doubt, these words from the Origin Saint Race Giant made many Giants in the Chaos Sea tempted, even crazed.
In an instant, countless Giants moved, charging towards the location of the Profound God Ancestor's tribulation.
