All four of them understood Hun Wuji's strength. At this moment, they set aside their pride, knowing that a one-on-one fight was not an option, and thus chose to attack simultaneously.
Of course, only two of them actually made a move.
Yan Tianjun and Primordial attacked.
Yan Tianjun, the Supreme King of the Xiu Luo Heavenly Race and son of the Xiu Luo Heavenly Venerate, manifested his Xiu Luo Blood World, which was countless times more powerful than Yan Cangyu's, and actively charged forward to kill. Blood light enveloped the area as Xiu Luo battle techniques manifested. From the very beginning, it was the most terrifying crimson assault, casting a bloody glow over the entire cosmic battlefield.
Primordial, the offspring of the Taiyuan Heavenly Venerate, radiated stone light, manifesting an incomparably massive stone giant wielding a huge axe. It was as if the great god Pangu who separated heaven and earth had descended upon this world once more, ferociously cleaving towards Hun Wuji.
Two Supreme Kings simultaneously attacking Hun Wuji was absolutely unprecedented and incredibly perilous. Even facing such a situation, another Supreme King would almost certainly face certain defeat.
However, Hun Wuji unleashed a Chaos Taiji Halo, enveloping himself. His Chaos Dao techniques were executed, countless times more powerful than even Ye Junlin's, and he actually managed to cleverly neutralize the assaults of the two Supreme Kings, preventing any harm from reaching his person. Everyone was shocked by this individual's might.
Simultaneously, Hun Wuji used Chaos to evolve myriad techniques, actively launching his own offensive.
At this moment, behind him manifested a vast, boundless grand universe. The Thirty-Three Heavenly Dao Pagoda appeared, each level featuring a majestic figure standing as tall as the heavens. All of them simultaneously opened their eyes and struck out against Yan Tianjun and Primordial.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!—
Hun Wuji, fighting one against two, simultaneously dealt with two Supreme Kings. The battle was fierce and evenly matched, shaking heaven and earth. The cosmic battlefield collapsed from time to time, only to be restored moments later.
Blood light splattered as Yan Tianjun's battle sword pierced through the defense of the Chaos Taiji Halo and struck Hun Wuji's body. Many of the Xiu Luo Heavenly Race's supreme powerhouses were overjoyed. With this sword strike landing, even a Supreme King would be severely wounded.
Clang!—
Yet, what horrified everyone was that Hun Wuji's physical body remained unscathed, withstanding the blow head-on. Everyone present sucked in a cold breath.
"The assault of a Supreme King actually can't harm him? And this is Yan Tianjun, who shook the Origin Land with his slaughter-oriented battle techniques! Just how terrifyingly formidable must Hun Wuji's physical body be!"
One supreme powerhouse after another was utterly astonished.
Even the seated Ancient Great Venerables revealed looks of surprise. "Such a physical body is truly peerless beneath the Great Venerable level. Could he be walking the path of physical body ascension? But that shouldn't be!"
No one dared to believe that a Taishang's physical body could be so strong. They felt it could almost rival their own Great Venerable-level physiques. Just who was Hun Wuji? An unknown individual couldn't possibly possess such a formidable body.
Yan Tianjun was horrified. Even though his Xiu Luo battle sword's attack power had been weakened by over half by the Chaos Taiji Halo, the remaining force could still easily cleave through a Taishang. Yet, it couldn't inflict the slightest harm on Hun Wuji. That level of physical body made him admit to himself that he was inferior.
Boom!—
Seizing this opportunity, Hun Wuji formed a hand seal, manifesting an enormous Golden-Winged Great Peng bird shimmering with endless fragments of time. It swept through space-time, carrying a fearsome assault that crashed violently into Yan Tianjun.
Pfft!—
Yan Tianjun's shoulder was shattered by the Golden-Winged Great Peng, blood gushing wildly.
Simultaneously, infinite fragments of time danced about, infiltrating Yan Tianjun's body.
In an instant, Yan Tianjun's aura weakened considerably—half an epoch of his cultivation had been severed.
"Severed half an epoch of cultivation! Such fearsome attainment in the Great Dao of Space-Time! Even more astonishing than the space-time mastery of the Chaos Heavenly Emperor's two sons!" A Heavenly Race Taishang revealed a trace of gravity.
Many supreme powerhouses, however, were puzzled. "How can half an epoch of Yan Tianjun's cultivation be severed? He's a Taishang, with infinite lifespan. It shouldn't be possible to sever it."
"Precisely because of that, it highlights the fearsomeness of this Hun Wuji," another Heavenly Race Taishang said gravely. "He reversed time itself, reversing Yan Tianjun's life back to a stage half an epoch ago. Therefore, it can be said he severed half an epoch of cultivation."
To reversely sever half an epoch of a Supreme King's cultivation—one could imagine just how fearsome Hun Wuji was.
In the distance, Qian Xun, Ya Ya, and the Space-Time Great Emperor revealed looks of awe, deeply feeling the terrifying attainment of Hun Wuji's Space-Time Dao.
Hun Wuji was not a primary cultivator of the Great Dao of Space-Time, yet he had still cultivated it to such a lofty level. He was an opponent who inspired despair.
On his throne, Ye Chen's expression remained unchanged from beginning to end. His gaze fell upon Hun Wuji, profound and unfathomable, as if trying to see through everything.
However, Hun Wuji's figure was shrouded in mist; the Heavenly Secrets were obscured, making it impossible to discern his true visage.
Ye Chen revealed a hint of surprise. He could tell this Hun Wuji was anything but simple. Behind him, there was another Supreme Heavenly Venerate concealing the Heavenly Secrets.
It was just that being able to instruct a Chaos Taishang, and one who had achieved such a high level of mastery over the Great Dao of Space-Time, made Hun Wuji's identity something that demanded deep contemplation.
Beside him, the Deathless Heavenly Venerate said, "There is another Supreme Heavenly Venerate acting upon him to conceal the Heavenly Secrets. His true identity cannot be determined, but it can be confirmed that he is related to a Supreme Heavenly Venerate!"
"Such profound attainment in the Chaos Dao... Under all of heaven, aside from Chaos itself, only the Primordial Beginning King possesses such mastery. But this lord has never heard of the Primordial Beginning King accepting such a closed-door disciple," said the Purple Extreme Heavenly Venerate, his gaze sharp as he observed Hun Wuji.
Even if Hun Wuji was powerful, he couldn't possibly detect the attention of the several Supreme Heavenly Venerates hidden within the void.
The Purple Extreme Heavenly Venerate continued, "It's one thing for this Hun Wuji to have unfathomably deep attainment in Chaos Dao techniques. But his profound mastery of the Great Dao of Space-Time is also unprecedented. In the current world, no faction's attainment in the Great Dao of Space-Time can reach this level. The only possibility is the lost Endless Heavenly Clan."
"Could he be a surviving clansman of the lost Endless Heavenly Clan from back then?"
Even the Supreme Heavenly Venerates revealed a trace of doubt.
The Deathless Heavenly Venerate said with a grave expression, "If he is a surviving clansman of the Endless Heavenly Clan, that would make sense. After all, throughout heaven and earth, across all ages, only the Endless Heavenly Clan was the premier clan in controlling space-time. Hun Wuji—the name 'Wuji' (Endless) quite fits the 'Wu' surname of the Endless Heavenly Clan. Perhaps, fearing retaliation, he added the 'Hun' surname before it."
The Supreme Heavenly Venerates were all speculating about Hun Wuji's identity—whether he was a surviving clansman of that lost Endless Heavenly Clan.
Ye Chen, as a Supreme Heavenly Venerate who had mastered the Eternal Heavenly Dao, could sense the entire Origin Land.
Moreover, with his status as a Heavenly Venerate, he was aware of almost everything under heaven.
He knew that the Endless Heavenly Clan was the Eternal Heavenly Clan left behind by the Endless Heavenly Venerate, one of the thirty-three Supreme Heavenly Venerates of yore.
The Endless Heavenly Venerate was precisely that Supreme Heavenly Venerate who had mastered the Space-Time Heavenly Dao.
However, based on Ye Chen's knowledge, he only had a partial understanding of the Endless Heavenly Venerate, especially regarding his mysterious fall back then. It was filled with strangeness, making even Heavenly Venerates feel inexplicably baffled and causing Ancient Great Venerables to shudder.
Ye Chen asked, "Fellow Daoists, how did the Endless Heavenly Venerate fall back then? Was he killed by several Supreme Heavenly Venerates, or was it a joint effort by many Great Venerables?"
