This mass of blood was truly miraculous.
Especially since it belonged to an ancient overlord like Wan Shen Great Supreme, its miraculous nature was enough to drive even Tai Zhen Half-Step Overlords mad with envy, containing endless mysteries for ascending to the Supreme Realm.
Within Heaven-Mending City, countless powerhouses stared unblinkingly at that blood. They saw infinite Supreme rules flickering within, saw Supreme Realm origin manifesting, and saw various lofty mysteries of the Supreme Realm flashing before their eyes.
Every supreme expert who had reached the Heaven-Connecting level or above watched with burning eyes and hearts.
To them, it seemed like a peerless treasure.
And indeed it was.
For Tai Zhen Half-Step Overlords, it offered a glimpse into the mysteries of the Supreme Realm. For those below, it similarly allowed them to peer into the secrets of higher realms, granting greater hope of reaching the summit.
Grasping this mass of blood before countless gazes, Ye Chen took a bite, directly devouring it.
Gulp—
A blood mass the size of a human head was directly swallowed.
"Madness! Absolute madness! That's the Dao blood and partial origin of a Supreme Realm overlord! Swallowing it like that—even a Tai Zhen Half-Step Overlord would be unable to withstand it and be crushed to dust!"
"Too insane! Even another Supreme Realm overlord shouldn't be this reckless! They might not be able to endure it either."
Many supreme experts were dumbfounded, for that was truly an excessively insane, even unbelievable act.
Especially since Wan Shen Great Supreme was an ancient overlord. A single drop of his Supreme Dao blood would require a Heaven-Connecting Realm supreme expert to refine over a long period. How much more this massive, immeasurable mass of blood, which even contained part of his Supreme Realm origin? A Tai Zhen Half-Step Overlord would need to carefully refine it gradually over endless eons.
Even a Supreme Realm overlord wouldn't dare be so careless, lest an immense, boundless power surge forth, potentially spiraling out of control and overwhelming them.
Especially in this current situation, it was even more dangerous.
But that only applied to ordinary people.
Ye Chen was not among them.
Boom—
The blood sphere directly transformed into a surging, torrential energy that flooded into Ye Chen's limbs and bones. It further transformed into infinite order divine swords that directly severed the many Eternal shackles within his body.
In particular, the Heavenly Venerate bloodline belonging to Wan Xuan Heavenly Venerate, under Ye Chen's control, transformed into an Eternal sword that continuously clanged and severed the numerous Eternal shackles accumulated within him, breaking their restraints.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—
Affected by this, a small portion of the seal within Ye Chen's body—imposed by the Eternal shackles of two Supreme Heavenly Venerates—was released.
Thus, Ye Chen's Eternal origin, which had been completely isolated from the outside world by the Eternal shackles, remained like a candle flame—neither dying nor extinguishing, yet unable to grow stronger.
Now, because a portion of the Eternal shackles had been severed, a breach appeared. The Eternal origin could finally make contact with the outside world.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—
A terrifying Great Dao phenomenon manifested.
An unprecedented devouring force suddenly emerged from Ye Chen's body, directly piercing through numerous black holes, even penetrating the Eternal Heaven Patterns isolation of Heaven-Mending City, connecting to the outside world. It gathered and channeled the Great Dao power of the infinitely vast Origin Land's heaven and earth, pouring through the black holes into Ye Chen's body.
His previously depleted Eternal origin was gradually growing stronger.
The Eternal origin power within Ye Chen's body was surging forth wildly, erupting with even greater might.
The Eternal Heavenly Venerate power unique to him was beginning to awaken.
A Great Dao power that could be described as immeasurable was slowly reviving. In an instant, it could annihilate infinite heavens and earth.
"Hmm? One-tenth of the Eternal shackles within my body have been severed." Ye Chen could feel that, due to devouring part of Wan Shen Great Supreme's flesh and blood, Supreme Realm origin, and Heavenly Venerate bloodline, roughly one-tenth of the numerous Eternal shackles within him had been dissolved.
It didn't seem like much, but the key was that it helped Ye Chen break open the Eternal shackles formed by the remnants of the two Supreme Heavenly Venerates on his body. Finally, he could strengthen his dried-up Eternal origin and had hope of returning to the Heavenly position.
Moreover, relying on this one-tenth breach, given time, Ye Chen could use endless eons to gradually shatter the other Eternal shackles bit by bit, slowly recovering and becoming a Supreme Heavenly Venerate once more.
This was enough to accomplish many things.
Within his body, Eternal origin was continuously surging with power, circulating through his limbs and bones, erupting with extremely powerful Eternal Heavenly Venerate force.
In the blink of an eye, he had become significantly stronger than before.
Furthermore, because he had successfully severed one-tenth of the Eternal shackles within his body, his own Eternal origin was slowly reforming and gradually strengthening.
Ye Chen's injuries also began showing signs of comprehensive improvement.
Simply put, Ye Chen's original condition, due to the numerous Eternal shackles imposed by the two Supreme Heavenly Venerates, had formed a special Eternal imprisonment. This caused his internal Eternal origin to be sealed, preventing him from repairing his Eternal origin, healing his injuries, or returning to the Heavenly position to become the peerless Supreme Heavenly Venerate of the current era.
But now, with one-tenth of the Eternal shackles severed, a flaw had appeared. The Eternal origin could use this flaw to seize the opportunity to absorb the perfected Great Dao power of the Origin Land and begin reforming.
And Ye Chen could potentially use this flaw to restore his peak combat power as a Supreme Heavenly Venerate.
That was essentially the situation.
Simultaneously, Wan Shen Great Supreme felt a chill of horror. Not only had his physical body been violently shattered, but he had also lost part of his Supreme Realm origin, which had entered the other party's body, completely vanished, and been permanently taken away.
"You deserve death!"
Wan Shen Great Supreme roared, filled with boundless fury. That was his Great Dao origin, painstakingly cultivated over several Chaos Eras, the foundation he had accumulated to rely on for impacting the Supreme Heavenly position. Yet now, part of it—nearly one-third—had been taken away.
To him, this was more infuriating than having his Supreme Dao weapon shattered, more shocking and enraging than being crushed to dust.
The loss of origin would require who knew how many epochs, perhaps even Chaos Eras of endless time, to cultivate anew.
This was absolutely an irreconcilable vendetta.
Ten thousand great worlds surged violently. Ten thousand heavenly gods stood together, as if ten thousand deities were presiding. Wan Shen Great Supreme traversed the vast sky, slashing toward Ye Chen with absolute power.
It was a strike of hatred, more terrifying than all previous attacks.
Boom—
But Ye Chen merely swept a palm blade across.
Clang!
Heaven collapsed and earth cracked. Space-time was annihilated.
That peerless Supreme war sword was sent flying, a gap appearing on its edge that made one's heart palpitate.
Simultaneously, the palm blade descended, containing supreme Eternal Heavenly Venerate power. From top to bottom, it fell from Wan Shen Great Supreme's left shoulder, tracing a line all the way to his right waist.
Squelch—
Blood light erupted.
Wan Shen Great Supreme, this ancient overlord, was directly cleaved in two.
