Ye Chen made his move, charging towards the Primordial Female Saint Lord.
The Primordial Female Saint Lord was about to raise her willow-like brows and unleash a terrifying strike to kill this mysterious powerhouse who had betrayed Wang Ming. However, she discovered that although this attack appeared immensely powerful, it seemed to lack substantial offensive force. It had great momentum but was devoid of the expected killing intent.
What was going on?
Nevertheless, she instinctively clashed with Ye Chen's palm. Boundless divine radiance suddenly erupted, filling the heavens. She couldn't help but stagger back several steps, while Ye Chen was sent flying back into the midst of the overlords, shouting, "Everyone, please act now, seize this moment!"
"Good!" "Kill!"
The nineteen overlords immediately attacked, their auras soaring and divine power surging as they struck at the Primordial Female Saint Lord.
Yet at this very moment, their momentum suddenly collapsed. An overlord let out a miserable cry as an incomplete divine spear suddenly shot out, piercing through an overlord's left chest and heart with lightning speed.
A peerless killing light also appeared, cleaving another overlord directly in two, blood spraying everywhere.
In an instant, two powerful overlords were slain—unbelievably fast, unimaginably swift.
Before the other overlords could react, swathes of destructive light exploded, engulfing everyone. Nearly all of them were injured, with several suffering severe wounds.
All of this happened with lightning speed, making it impossible to react in time.
Looking at the attacker, it was none other than the mysterious powerhouse shrouded in hazy light. He had suddenly turned traitor, causing heavy casualties among the overlords.
This scene truly took everyone by surprise. Hadn't this mysterious powerhouse agreed to help the overlords? Now he had betrayed them at all costs, infuriating them all.
"How dare you!"
The overlords were furious to the point of madness. Yet, Ye Chen stepped with the Reverse Void Eight Steps, closing in on an overlord in an instant. His peerless combat power erupted. Under the hazy light, the Four Extremities Connecting to Sage Style also emitted a terrifying fluctuation, causing the surrounding void to collapse under the pressure.
The four-colored divine radiance almost condensed into chaotic light, evolving chaotic energy that directly blasted that overlord apart, annihilating both body and dao, leaving nothing behind.
All of this was accomplished in a mere moment. Even if the other overlords wished to rescue him, it was impossible—they simply couldn't make it in time.
Another overlord was slain, blood staining the sky, shocking all the powerhouses present.
This series of explosive attacks left Ye Chen feeling that the Great Dao divine power within him had weakened considerably. Each strike had nearly combined the power of dozens or even hundreds of ordinary moves, hence achieving instant kills.
Great power came with a great cost—the severe depletion of divine power.
After all, Old Yan was merely a remnant soul, relying more on his origin power than true divine power. Ye Chen's actions undoubtedly placed a heavy toll on his divine power reserves.
"You dare oppose us? We'll kill you!" The overlords were truly enraged, never expecting such treachery.
Ye Chen sneered, "You, as men, bullying a woman is one thing. As elders, bullying a junior is another. But so many of you ganging up? Since you have no shame, why should I keep my promise to you? Let's fight!"
"Kill you!"
The overlords roared, attacking directly with a massive outburst. Divine radiance erupted overwhelmingly, annihilating the void until nothing remained.
Over a dozen overlords attacked. Several ancient recluses also prepared to join the fray, causing hearts to skip a beat. However, they were ultimately restrained by several powerhouses from the Tai Chu Sacred Land. Otherwise, the situation for the two would have been many times more difficult.
Even someone as powerful as the Primordial Female Saint Lord wore a grave expression. She stepped forward, actively shielding Ye Chen, and unleashed astonishing Great Dao laws to clash with the attacks.
But no matter how powerful she was, she couldn't withstand over a dozen overlords alone. Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, and her jade-white wrists bore bloody marks—she had been wounded.
At this moment, Ye Chen charged forward. With a thunderous roar, an unparalleled, supreme might erupted from his body. From the crown of his head, a terrifying divine radiance dragon surged out, claws bared, soaring into the sky to become a conspicuous blood energy dragon in the starry expanse.
His black hair danced wildly, his bearing majestic and peerless, invincible under the heavens, looking down upon the Myriad Domains.
At this very moment, every inch of his body emanated blazing radiance, as if containing rounds of divine suns, shining with immortal light. The divine power within him surged forth tumultuously, resonating thunderously. His Great Dao origin began to awaken.
A terrifying aura slowly spread out, causing the overlords to change expressions. With the slightest movement of his joints, sounds like morning bells and evening drums resonated, echoing between heaven and earth.
Ye Chen smiled faintly, "Good, finally fully awakened. Now I can fight."
Then he looked at the Primordial Female Saint Lord and said, "Jing... Tai Chu Saint Lord, half for you, half for me."
The Primordial Female Saint Lord nodded slightly, "Be careful. If you're in danger, call for me. I'll support you."
"Don't worry, that won't happen," Ye Chen laughed.
Arrogant!
The overlords were furious. What was this? They were all Saint Lord-level figures who dominated their respective regions. Although not true Sacred Land masters, their strength was no less. Yet these two treated them like trash, each taking on half? Utterly arrogant! Did they really think themselves invincible under the heavens?
"Hmph, kill them all!"
As Saint Lord-level figures who dominated their regions, what did they have to fear in a real fight?
They attacked without any consideration, swarming together, joining forces to assault the two powerhouses. Endless dao principles and divine radiance blotted out the sky, overwhelming everything as they unleashed terrifying, lethal techniques.
That patch of void directly disintegrated and was annihilated. The indiscriminate attacks made the other overlords tremble. No overlord could withstand this; even a Heavenly King arriving would likely be wounded.
The Primordial Female Saint Lord lightly shifted her immortal steps, ethereal and illusory, like a banished immortal walking the mortal world, transcendent and detached. With each movement, she evaded the myriad attacks.
Occasionally, her fair hands would sweep forth, carrying terrifying power that directly shattered and annihilated the attacks before her, leaving nothing behind.
Although a woman, her strength was indeed overwhelmingly powerful. Alone, she could rival eight overlords.
Truly worthy of being the forceful Primordial Female Saint Lord—astonishingly powerful.
On the other side, Ye Chen also moved. He strode through the void, with dao and principle interweaving and evolving beneath his feet, as if walking beyond the Three Realms, outside the Five Elements. Surprisingly, none of the myriad attacks could truly touch even a corner of his robe—unbelievable.
