"The Origin Land is closing!"
Someone shouted, causing the pupils of the many powerhouses to contract sharply. They suddenly saw the brilliant, radiant passageway leading to the Origin Land begin to slowly shrink, about to close once more.
"Damn it, the sole passage connecting the Origin Land and the Chaos Sea is closing! The heaven and earth rules of the Origin Land have a self-healing ability; they automatically isolate the Chaos Sea!"
"No, to the Origin Land, the Chaos Sea is a flawed place. Its heaven and earth rules are incomplete, unable to give birth to true Eternal Heavenly Venerates, hence it is rejected. Moreover, I've heard that the Nine Great Eternal Heavenly Venerates of the Origin Land acted to isolate the Chaos Sea. The Origin Land possesses a flawless Eternal Heavenly Dao. Once it senses a breach, it will self-heal and close."
Many of the supreme powerhouses from the myriad heavens who had entered the Origin Land came to a realization, receiving a flood of information at this moment.
Furthermore, while crossing the passageway into the Origin Land, the heaven and earth rules within their bodies had been baptized and renewed, becoming even more powerful.
"Father!"
Within the Origin Land, on the other side of the passage, Qianxun, Ye Junlin, and the others had successfully crossed. Gazing across the passageway, they saw their father Ye Chen in the Chaos Sea, locked in battle with the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will. They couldn't help but feel anxious.
They were also worried about their several mothers and other siblings who were still in the Pangu Universe, unable to enter the Origin Land.
Now, the passage to the Origin Land was gradually closing, making them frantic. They hurriedly called out, hoping Ye Chen could quickly bring the rest of their family, lest they miss this golden opportunity to enter the Origin Land!
The Heavenly Emperor, the Battle Saint Ancestor, Tai Sheng Huang, and the other Taishang realm Overlords of the Pangu Universe lineage naturally saw this too. However, they had already entered the Origin Land. To return to the Chaos Sea now would be tantamount to abandoning the heaven and earth rules they had just obtained. Moreover, trying to re-enter would be extremely difficult.
Because the sole passage to the Origin Land was about to close.
More importantly, they all believed in Ye Chen.
If Ye Chen aspired to come to the Origin Land, they would spare no effort to prevent the sole passage from closing immediately.
Ye Chen naturally saw it too.
How could he have no thoughts about the Origin Land?
That was the only place to achieve Eternity, and also the place where his Chaos Supreme Dao could be completely perfected and reach great completion.
His greatest hope in this life was to attain the Eternal Fruit, to prevent the blood-drenched future from descending.
If Ye Chen wanted to enter the Origin Land, heading there now would absolutely give him enough time.
However, he looked at the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will, sealed by the Heaven-Binding Chains, and fell silent.
If he went to the Origin Land, it would mean allowing the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will to regain its freedom.
The Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will was a strongest half-step Overlord existence not the slightest bit inferior to him. Once it regained freedom, without a doubt, it would unleash devastating retaliation against everything related to him.
That would be a purely dimensional-reduction strike of revenge, something no one could withstand.
Therefore, Ye Chen could not leave.
At the very least, he could not leave now!
He looked at his wives and children and said, "You go first. I'll join you shortly!"
This was a golden opportunity to go to the Origin Land. Once missed, who knew if he would ever get another chance in this lifetime.
The Goddess, Yi Wu, Yu Qing, Chen'er, A Beinu, and the others did not try to persuade him, for they all knew Ye Chen's mind was made up.
However, this time, they did not go to the Origin Land either.
Because they would stay behind in the Chaos Heaven Mansion, accompanying Ye Chen.
If Ye Chen left, they would leave.
If Ye Chen stayed, they would stay too!
"Chen, fight with peace of mind. We will guard the Chaos Heaven Mansion. We will wait for you to go to the Origin Land together."
Ye Chen's resolve was firm, but theirs was equally so. This time, they would not leave.
After experiencing life-and-death separations time and again, this time, they never wanted to be apart again.
If they were to go, they would go together. If they were to stay, they would stay together.
Ye Chen glanced at them, moved in his heart, understanding their thoughts. He did not stop them.
"Kill!"
With only a furious roar, Ye Chen charged at the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will. He swung his fists in a horizontal strike, smashed down with the Chaos Supreme Cauldron, sealed with the Sealing Gate, and used the Heaven-Binding Chains to seal the heavens and lock the earth, completely suppressing the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will.
The most terrifying battle erupted.
During this, the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will also raged in fury. It fought desperately, willing to pay the price of being smashed to pieces, willing to self-detonate its origin core in an attempt to break Ye Chen's seal. It succeeded once, breaking out of the sealed area and charging toward the location of the Origin Ancient Path, killing its way inside.
But Ye Chen gave relentless chase.
Because he knew that once the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will entered the Origin Land, it would pose an unprecedented, immense threat to his family.
He could not allow such a colossal threat to escape. Even at a heavy cost, he had to strangle it in the cradle.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—
A terrifying battle erupted wildly, battle aura soaring to the heavens, wreaking havoc upon the Origin Ancient Path.
It was a battle between the two strongest half-step Overlords of all time.
The Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will, sweeping along endless darkness, rushed behind the ancient heavenly gate. Seeing the Origin Land right ahead, needing only to charge through the sole passageway to cross over, it couldn't help but let out a mad laugh: "Hahaha, Chaos Heavenly Emperor, you cannot stop This One! This One is about to enter the Origin Land! And once This One enters the Origin Land, This One will completely recover and will relentlessly pursue and utterly devour everyone related to your Pangu Universe. This One remembers, among those who entered the Origin Land, there are your close friends and family, hahaha—"
It issued an arrogant, wildly ecstatic laugh.
Today, the Chaos Heavenly Emperor had made it so wretched. It would definitely take revenge.
It would make the Chaos Heavenly Emperor feel endless regret for today's events.
As for the suspected Eternal Origin within the Pangu Universe, it could only give up.
But there was no choice. Staying in this flawed primordial world, it had a feeling it would perish at the hands of the Chaos Heavenly Emperor.
Now, returning to the Origin Land was the only way out.
Even if there were Taishang realm Overlords like the Heavenly Emperor within the Origin Land, it did not fear. The Origin Land was boundless and infinite; it could go anywhere.
Moreover, the Heavenly Emperor was one of the ancient sinners exiled back then. If he dared to pursue, he would inevitably expose his identity and face endless pursuit.
"Don't worry, you won't get the chance. Because today, no matter what, you will die!"
Ye Chen was ice-cold. His entire person seemed to be burning, chaotic light surging and blazing as if layers of chaotic flames were igniting. He charged at the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will.
Rumble—
In a daze, it seemed as if the heavens would collapse and the earth would split, as if everything would be shattered into the past.
Universe phantoms appeared, Heavenly Dao grinding discs manifested, the Chaos Supreme Cauldron, the Sealing Gate... one supreme forbidden ancient weapon after another manifested, launching an all-out assault to annihilate the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will.
However, even though the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will was severely wounded, killing it like this was still very difficult.
Now, with the Eternal Night Domain's Origin Will sparing nothing, it had already stepped half a foot into the sole passageway.
Ye Chen hesitated, not daring to advance further.
