"So strong! Who is that? It seems a Half-Step Overlord has arrived!"
Many supreme experts of the Lingxiao Heavenly Race frowned.
"Me!"
That figure coldly spat out the word, then threw a punch. The sky was filled with golden battle power that tore through everything, directly blasting towards Annan Supreme.
This fist shattered heaven and earth, broke through the sturdy void of the Fallen Heaven Secret Realm, and smashed forward.
"Supreme, be careful!"
The various powerhouses' expressions changed as they recognized the person's identity—it was the Battle Saint Ancestor from the Deficient Primordial Realm.
He had been a Half-Step Overlord back then, but after cultivating for an epoch, he had mended his deficiencies, and his cultivation had rapidly soared. No one knew how strong the Battle Saint Ancestor was now.
He had managed to cultivate to the Half-Step Overlord realm even within the Deficient Primordial Realm, let alone now in the Origin Land, a place of perfect heaven and earth. It was as if his long-suppressed form and spirit had been liberated, unleashing astonishing potential.
His cultivation had also experienced a geyser-like growth.
Moreover, this Battle Saint Ancestor was famously known throughout the Origin Land as a peerless powerhouse renowned for his offensive prowess.
Boom—
Annan Supreme flicked his sleeve, gathering infinite power of heaven and earth's rules before him. It collided with the Battle Saint Ancestor's fist, exploding violently.
He had also neutralized this strike.
Annan Supreme looked coldly at the Battle Saint Ancestor and said, "So it's a banished sinner from the Deficient Primordial Realm. Although you've mended your deficiencies, you're still just a Half-Step Overlord. I was planning to find you all anyway, but I didn't expect you to show up personally. Good, that saves me some trouble!"
"How dare you bully a genius from our Primordial Realm, Annan! Your courage is too great!"
The Battle Saint Ancestor's eyes sharpened. His original purpose was to go to the Taiyuan Heavenly Clan to demand justice, and he had come this way to escort Ye Junlin away.
Now, seeing Ye Junlin covered in wounds, he was instantly enraged.
He couldn't participate in an Eternal-level heavenly battle, but could he not even save Ye Junlin?
"Junior, I am your senior. You don't even understand a bit of respect for your elders. Today, I'll teach you a proper lesson."
With a cold shout, Annan Supreme gathered the infinite rules between heaven and earth, coalescing them into a palm in the sky that was as large as half a domain. It fiercely slapped towards the Battle Saint Ancestor.
"Hmph, you think an old fossil like you, who has cultivated for who knows how many Chaos Epochs yet still can't attain the Eternal Fruit, can kill me?"
The Battle Saint Ancestor snorted coldly, swung his fist, displayed unparalleled offensive techniques, and smashed forward, striking towards that terrifying giant palm.
Boom—
That giant palm instantly shattered, turning into a sky full of blood mist that drifted about.
At the same time, the Battle Saint Ancestor took a large stride forward. The battle aura on his body rose level by level, and his essence, energy, and spirit rapidly reached an extremely powerful peak. He executed the Battle Saint Technique, unleashing world-shaking offensive power.
Annan Supreme snorted coldly. The Supreme Battle Spear returned to his hand, and he was also filled with cold fury. This junior was too arrogant, having cultivated for less than a Chaos Epoch yet daring to shout at him like this.
To become a Supreme, especially a Supreme of the Origin Land, and to have cultivated for who knows how many epochs—measurable in Chaos Epochs—he was an absolute ancient fossil who had survived from the Great War of the Myriad Heavens to the present.
Moreover, he was an ancestor-level existence of an Eternal Heavenly Race, his strength terrifying beyond compare.
Grasping the Supreme Battle Spear, he charged at the Battle Saint Ancestor.
But the Battle Saint Ancestor showed no fear whatsoever. It was as if golden holy flames were burning on his body, making him unbelievably powerful. He engaged Annan Supreme in a fierce battle, fighting at close quarters.
"This junior... in close-quarters combat, I actually haven't gained much of an upper hand!"
Annan Supreme's expression changed slightly. He only felt that the Battle Saint Ancestor was far too strong in close combat. For a moment, he found it difficult to gain any advantage, which was unimaginable.
Boom—
Right at that moment, a halberd shot through the air like a true dragon, stabbing towards Annan Supreme.
Pfft—
Although Annan Supreme dodged, his divine robe was pierced, nearly staining it with blood.
Only to see the Heaven-Defying War Lord, clad in battle armor, appear, striding forward while grasping the Heaven-Defying War Halberd. He said coldly, "Old fossil, you dodged quite quickly. You actually avoided it."
Seeing the Heaven-Defying War Lord also appear, Annan Supreme's expression turned gloomy, preparing to attack him as well.
"Annan, you'd better stay right there."
Tai Sheng Huang also appeared. The Qiankun Eight Trigrams Mirror floated up and down, shooting out beams of chaotic eight-colored light that bombarded Annan Supreme.
"You're seeking death!"
The various powerhouses of the Lingxiao Heavenly Race naturally wouldn't just stand by and watch them target Annan Supreme, preparing to intervene.
But the moment they charged forward, despite the seemingly short distance, they found themselves separated by an infinite expanse.
The Time-Space Great Emperor had appeared, saying indifferently, "You people should just obediently stay where you are."
Even in the Origin Land, when it came to mastery over time and space, the Time-Space Great Emperor could absolutely be considered among the top.
The Lingxiao Heavenly Race was not lacking in Half-Step Overlords. However, it was clear that the Time-Space Great Emperor, who had emerged from the Deficient Primordial Realm, was superior. Infinite space-time manifested, making inches feel like miles. Even powerful Half-Step Overlords couldn't completely cross over for a time to support Annan Supreme.
Boom—
Right then, Annan Supreme's figure staggered back several steps, blood spurting from his body—he was clearly injured.
Only to see the Battle Saint Ancestor and the Heaven-Defying War Lord standing together, looking coldly at Annan Supreme. "Old fossil, at this point, stop looking around. Do you really think the two of us are beneath your notice?"
The Heaven-Defying War Lord looked at Annan Supreme and suddenly said, "How about we sacrifice this old fossil in a holy rite, then attack the Taiyuan Heavenly Clan?"
Without a doubt, these words were shocking, sending chills down people's spines.
Those guys from the Deficient Primordial Realm were too bold. They actually wanted to use a Supreme Realm Overlord as a sacrificial offering in a holy rite to attack the Taiyuan Heavenly Clan. This wasn't just audacious; it was downright insane.
But the Battle Saint Ancestor, Tai Sheng Huang, and the Time-Space Great Emperor all nodded.
...
Taiyuan Heavenly Domain.
An ancient heavenly domain where the Taiyuan Heavenly Clan was stationed. Because the Taiyuan Heavenly Venerable had always been alive, no one throughout the ages dared to invade this ancient domain. It was one of the absolute forbidden lands of the Origin Land.
Within the heavenly domain, there were countless forces, but the most important, naturally, was the Taiyuan Heavenly Clan of the Taiyuan Heavenly Venerate's lineage, the supreme ruler of the heavenly domain.
Rumble—
Suddenly, at the Northern Heavenly Gate of the Taiyuan Heavenly Domain, heaven shook and earth trembled.
Guarding this place were two giants.
Though called guarding, in practice, they usually remained in seclusion within the Northern Heavenly Gate, comprehending the supreme Eternal Heavenly Dao, hoping to one day also become Eternal Heavenly Venerates.
But they were startled, soaring into the sky. Before they could even feel anger, they were stunned by the scene before them.
They saw before them—ancient and immortal great worlds, massive immortal stars—all being moved out from the Eternal Great World. Positioned in a wondrous arrangement, they suppressed the area outside the Taiyuan Heavenly Domain, forming a defensive array-like formation of world-stars. At this moment, they all transformed into enormous fireballs, illuminating the infinite heaven and earth, rumbling as they crashed into the Taiyuan Heavenly Domain.
The Taiyuan Heavenly Domain, though seemingly a heavenly domain, was in fact an Eternal Great World, enveloped by the Taiyuan Heavenly Clan's Eternal Great World, possessing extremely terrifying defensive power.
Who in the world dared to be so insane as to attack the Taiyuan Heavenly Domain? Wasn't that directly provoking the Taiyuan Heavenly Clan?
The two giants were furious. Just as they were about to soar into the sky, the next moment, they saw among the many burning great worlds and stars, a majestic figure billions of miles tall emerge, bathed in endless golden radiance. A terrifying giant hand directly slapped down.
Two loud booms. The two Taiyuan Heavenly Clan giants guarding the Northern Heavenly Gate were slapped into smithereens.
