Qingtian Great Venerable's imposing aura was boundless at this moment. He looked at Ye Chen, swept a glance at Heaven-Mending City below, and said coldly, "Is it to protect those remnants of the Heaven-Mending Clan? It's useless. After I kill you, those Heaven-Mending Clan remnants will also die."
Boom—
The moment his words fell, Qingtian Great Venerable had already made his move.
As he attacked, the Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun stirred up countless layers of divine might tidal waves, which then blasted toward Ye Chen.
Ye Chen also moved, his fist swinging, drawing upon the infinite might of heaven and earth to collide with the layers upon layers of divine might tidal waves.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom—
Their fists and palms clashed, colliding at the highest point of the firmament.
Each collision was like the explosion of a Supreme Universe, or the collapse of the Eternal Heavenly Realm, continuously erupting in the sky above the Origin Land, producing one dazzling ball of flame after another, instantly illuminating all heavens.
The void between them collapsed piece by piece, each collapse spanning tens of thousands of star domains.
Infinite stars continuously exploded.
It was terrifying beyond measure, unimaginable.
Across the Origin Land, countless powerful beings watched this battle, unblinking, unwilling to miss a single detail.
Because this was a peerless battle, rarely seen in all ages.
It was the first Ancient Great Venerable-level battle since the Multiverse Dusk.
On Pangu Heavenly Venerate Mountain, Zhao Jingruo looked tense and said, "Qian Xun, will he be alright?"
He, of course, referred to Ye Chen.
Qian Xun's expression was also quite grave. "I can't guarantee it, but Qingtian Great Venerable has manifested the Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun. From what I know, that is the sign of an Ancient Great Venerable going all out."
Zhao Jingruo bit her silver teeth. "In that case, we should ask the Supreme Heavenly Venerate to intervene."
Qian Xun said, "Mother, there's no need to ask a Heavenly Venerate to intervene for now. If it really is Father, with Father's wisdom, he must have corresponding means to deal with this. He wouldn't be so reckless."
In his heart, his father was absolutely wise, with profound strategies.
Since that Ancient Great Venerable suspected to be his father dared to soar into the sky and confront Qingtian Great Venerable like this, he believed he must have his own preparations.
Zhao Jingruo nodded slightly but added, "That may be so, but once he is in danger, we must ask the Supreme Heavenly Venerate to intervene."
This time, no matter what, they couldn't let anything happen to him.
Beyond the heavens, in the endless starry sky.
The two Ancient Great Venerables fought, quickly charging deep into the furthest reaches of the starry sky.
Qingtian Great Venerable advanced while supporting the Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun. The Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun was too massive, far surpassing other stars.
Even the myriad Supreme Stars of the Myriad Stars Supreme were thousands of times larger than ordinary stars, containing boundless might, but compared to his Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun, they were still insignificantly small.
Like a flickering firefly trying to compete with the sun and moon.
The Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun contained infinite and boundless power of the Great Dao and also connected with the supreme Heavenly Dao of the Origin Land.
This allowed Qingtian Great Venerable to borrow the supreme Heavenly Dao of the Origin Land, mastering infinite power of heaven and earth for his own use.
Even if a Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun was not as powerful as a true Celestial Venerable Sun, the infinite Heavenly Dao might it contained was not something ordinary Supremes or Overlords could approach.
If one accidentally strayed into a Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun, even a Supreme Realm Overlord could very likely be refined to nothing.
This was not without precedent. In the past, there was a Supreme Realm Overlord who sought to attain the supreme heavenly position. Finding no path after bitter searching, he eventually went mad and charged into one of the Celestial Venerable Suns, wanting to perceive that Supreme Heavenly Venerate's supreme Heavenly Dao up close to find the opportunity to become a Supreme Heavenly Venerate.
But unfortunately, after this Supreme Realm Overlord entered the Celestial Venerable Sun, he was directly suppressed by infinite Heavenly Dao might. Moreover, endless Eternal Heavenly Script surged forth, instantly annihilating that Supreme Realm Overlord into ashes, forever becoming part of history.
Although a Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun was not as powerful as a Celestial Venerable Sun, it still contained part of the Heavenly Dao's might and could also refine a Supreme Realm Overlord.
Now, Qingtian Great Venerable had manifested with the Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun.
Between the two, there existed an invisible line.
The Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun continuously transmitted immeasurable power, allowing Qingtian Great Venerable to unleash all attacks without fear.
"To force this venerable to manifest the Pseudo-Heavenly Venerable Sun, you are indeed formidable. But today, you will undoubtedly die."
Qingtian Great Venerable roared, his entire body covered with endless divine patterns of rules and countless intertwined Eternal Heavenly Script, forming a giant axe.
This was Qingtian Great Venerable's Great Venerable battle weapon.
The famous Qingtian Axe, modeled after Pangu's Axe, forged by Qingtian Great Venerable over endless eons, was incomparably terrifying.
Although the Wanxuan Heavenly Venerate lineage viewed the Great God Pangu as an enemy, they also acknowledged Pangu's strength.
Especially Pangu's axe techniques, which were peerless throughout all ages, unsurpassable and incomparable.
Qingtian Great Venerable, pursuing the ultimate limit of power, naturally followed this path.
This ancient great axe fully awakened, countless times more terrifying than the Eternal Stone Halberd projected earlier, directly cleaving toward Ye Chen.
Bloodstains on the axe blade—these were battle achievements from the Multiverse Dusk era, the blood of other Ancient Great Venerables, and even the blood of Supreme Heavenly Venerates.
Now, its ferocious might was infinite as it cleaved toward Ye Chen.
Even a Supreme Realm Overlord, if struck, would definitely be split in two without exception.
Ye Chen's expression remained unchanged, still attacking with his fist.
"Seeking death!"
Qingtian Great Venerable sneered. Back then, even a Supreme Heavenly Venerate had been wounded by his axe. Now, Ye Chen actually wanted to clash with bare hands—that was absolutely foolish behavior.
Boom—
As all the Great Venerables across the heavens expected, the Qingtian Axe cleaved through Ye Chen's body, only stopping when it hit bone.
However, no blood flowed from his fist.
Moreover, the terrifying power of the Qingtian Axe invaded Ye Chen's body.
The sound of cracking echoed incessantly.
A few strands of blood trickled from the corner of Ye Chen's mouth.
He was injured.
"Truly arrogant!"
Qingtian Great Venerable laughed coldly. Although somewhat surprised that the axe hadn't smoothly cleaved through Ye Chen's fist, it had still injured him.
Facing his Qingtian Axe strike with bare hands was purely seeking death.
"He really is too arrogant!"
The Ancient Great Venerables across the heavens who were closely watching this scene all shook their heads. Facing the Qingtian Axe head-on—even they wouldn't dare do such a thing, knowing full well the terror of the Qingtian Axe.
"Senior!"
The Lord of Heaven-Mending City and the Ten Tribulations Emperor Heavenly Lord also felt some worry.
Did Ye Chen not have his own Great Venerable battle weapon? Fighting like this with bare hands would easily put him at a disadvantage.
Ye Chen didn't speak, continuing to clash with the Qingtian Axe using his bare hands.
Time and again, his hands were injured, cleaved open by the Qingtian Axe, but they also rapidly healed each time.
Qingtian Great Venerable didn't know why Ye Chen was behaving this way, but he only scoffed at Ye Chen's foolishness. Although recovering with a Great Venerable's astonishing vitality wasn't a problem, the Qingtian Axe was no ordinary weapon, and he was no ordinary person. Each attack carried terrifying power that invaded the opponent's body, causing terrible destruction within.
Even a Great Venerable would be injured, and their origin would be depleted.
Continuing like this, the opponent's Great Venerable origin would inevitably be weakened to a quite feeble state.
At that point, there was even a certain possibility of killing the opponent on the spot.
