The Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor laughed heartily. Even though he was tightly bound and suppressed by layer upon layer of the Heaven-Binding Chains, he still radiated an extremely terrifying energy fluctuation that caused the surrounding universe's origin to tremble incessantly.
He mocked, "Chaos Heavenly Emperor, I admit you are invincible in this era, but if you want my Thirty-Three Heavens Great Method, you can only be described as wishful thinking!"
Clearly, the Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor would never hand over the Thirty-Three Heavens Great Method. This was a supreme forbidden divine ability he had painstakingly cultivated over endless eons. Even Taishang realm Overlords would covet such a peerless method, one that truly shook the ancient and illuminated the present.
Such a divine ability, even within the Eternal Heavenly Venerate Clan, would absolutely be considered a first-rate technique, one that would make Taishang realm Overlords' hearts stir.
Now, even if defeated by the Chaos Heavenly Emperor, he could not possibly hand it over.
Ye Chen naturally knew that great existences like the Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor, who had lived for who knows how many epochs, fundamentally feared no death and could not be subjected to soul-searching.
Once subjected to soul-searching, they would self-destruct immediately.
Even someone as powerful as Ye Chen could not stop it.
Therefore, he did not attempt soul-searching.
"Even if you don't tell me, it's not impossible for me to master it. It will just require some time," Ye Chen said.
He recalled the moments of battle with the Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor, the various aspects of when the opponent executed the Thirty-Three Heavens. Above his head, the Chaos Fate Disc manifested, its deduction ability reaching its peak.
Especially now, with his cultivation having reached a height comparable to the former five Taishang realm Overlords, he could directly deduce everything from ancient times to the present.
He was silently deducing the various profound mysteries of when the Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor had employed the technique.
Rumble—
This was only the first execution. As the Cosmic Heaven Tower shone, thirty-three vast heavens manifested above Ye Chen's head, majestic and boundless, astonishing even the Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor suppressed within the Heaven-Binding Chains.
Although the Thirty-Three Heavens appeared without the will imprints of the Eternal Heavenly Venerates, and were not as powerful as his own execution—seeming to possess only the outer form—they already bore some resemblance.
The Chaos Heavenly Emperor was actually this terrifying.
It must be known that even Half-Step Overlords, at their peak, could instantly penetrate all methods. Even supreme-level forbidden divine abilities could be completely comprehended in the blink of an eye before them, and cultivated to perfection in a short time.
But the Thirty-Three Heavens was not merely the strongest divine ability at the Half-Step Overlord level; it involved far too much, including the bloodline of the Eternal Heavenly Venerate. Without the corresponding method, cultivating it was extremely difficult.
Even impossible.
Yet, the Chaos Heavenly Emperor hadprecisely / just managed to cultivate a semblance of it from the start.
Though enemies, they had to admit that the Chaos Heavenly Emperor was a monstrous talent of unimaginable horror. No wonder he could cultivate to this step in just a few million years, becoming the supreme ruler of the current era, the number one.
Ignoring the Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor's shock, Ye Chen continuously executed the Thirty-Three Heavens Great Method.
With each execution, the Thirty-Three Heavens Great Method was continuously perfected.
He cultivated in this manner.
Only seventy thousand years passed.
Rumble—
On this day, the Thirty-Three Heavens manifested above Ye Chen's head, representing thirty-three vast heavens, infinitely majestic.
Each vast heaven was as boundless as a great universe, each with a supreme, lofty, and indistinct figure of an Eternal Heavenly Venerate seated within, guarding one side.
The Thirty-Three Heavens had been completely cultivated to great perfection!
Shocking the ancient and the present!
"Impossible!"
The Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor stared at this scene in disbelief.
The Thirty-Three Heavens—he had spent endless eons, including time in the Origin Land and the Defective Primal World, more than one Chaos Era.
A Chaos Era was measured as one hundred epochs.
Each epoch lasted for billions of years at the very least, let alone a Chaos Era, which was unimaginably long.
Since the Chaos Sea reopened heaven and earth, over a hundred epochs had passed, meaning over one Chaos Era.
Yet, it was over the course of nearly two Chaos Eras that this prehistoric fossil, the Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor, had exhausted endless effort to create this peerless method.
Now, it had taken only seventy thousand years for the Chaos Heavenly Emperor to deduce it, and identically so.
Was this the true gap between a heaven-defying monster and them?
Moreover, they clearly sensed that the manifestation of the Thirty-Three Heavens was not onlynot the slightest bit inferior inferior to the Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor's former execution but even seemed several times more powerful in terms of aura.
It made the three Half-Step Overlords tremble, feeling that even at their peak, facing this, they would likely be completely crushed and killed in a short time.
Those will imprints of the Eternal Heavenly Venerates were like the projections of the Heavenly Venerates from the former Thirty-Three Heavenly Passes, terrifying beyond measure.
"Chaos Heavenly Emperor, have you actually cultivated to the Taishang realm?"
The Cosmic Heaven God Ancestor, the World-Wrath God Venerable, and the World-Burying Demon Ancestor were horrified and incredulous as they looked at Ye Chen.
Only a Taishang realm Overlord could make the might of the Thirty-Three Heavens reach such a level.
Moreover, upon careful sensing, they indeed felt that the current Chaos Heavenly Emperor gave them an unfathomable feeling.
Unimaginable. Only over three hundred thousand years had passed. Not only had the Chaos Heavenly Emperor resolved his former injuries and cultivated the Thirty-Three Heavens peerless method, but even more terrifyingly, he had cultivated to the Taishang realm.
The Taishang realm—that was the level of the five peerless Overlords: the Heavenly Emperor, the Primordial Ancestor, the Immortal Ancestor, the Universe Great Emperor, and the Zhenyuan Taishang.
The truly invincible level within the Chaos Sea, unsurpassable, the supreme realm throughout the ages.
As for the Eternal realm, it was impossible to cultivate within this Defective Primal World that was the Chaos Sea, and the Eternal Heavenly Venerates would not descend to this realm.
"Taishang realm?" Ye Chen merely sighed lightly but did not deny it.
The three Half-Step Overlords were utterly despairing, knowing they had no hope of escape in this lifetime.
The Chaos Heavenly Emperor had become a Taishang realm cultivator, truly comparable to the Heavenly Emperor. Who could be his match?
Especially the World-Wrath God Venerable. He trembled, felt despair, and finally, his eyes shot forth rays filled with absolute hatred, saying, "Chaos Heavenly Emperor, even if you've reached the Taishang realm, you will die a wretched death!"
After uttering these words, the World-Wrath God Venerable's divine soul suddenly began to shine brilliantly, erupting with infinite, boundless light—the absolute radiance of Dao dissolution, illuminating all ages.
Ye Chen was also startled. The World-Wrath God Venerable intended to burn himself, directly self-destructing both form and spirit.
Even though the World-Wrath God Venerable only had a divine soul left, and in a half-damaged state, such a self-destruction might not cause Ye Chen much direct harm. But one must not forget—this was the origin land of his Chaos Universe. If successful, the self-destruction could cause unparalleled destruction and indirectly inflict great damage upon Ye Chen.
Fortunately, he directly suppressed it with the Heaven-Burying Stele.
The Heaven-Burying Stele was a Taishang realm Dao weapon refined by the Heavenly Emperor, containing absolute Heavenly Emperor power. At this moment, its powerful suppressing force pressed down, preventing the World-Wrath God Venerable's divine soul self-destruction from fully manifesting immediately.
