The Human Sovereign's Sacred Sword!
This was actually the legendary Human Sovereign's Sacred Sword! Ye Chen had once witnessed the invincible Human Sovereign of the Primordial Times battling a supreme existence of the alien race on the River of Time. The Human Sovereign's Sacred Sword was his primary weapon, a peerless supreme sword.
Now, this magnificent, peerless man actually wielded the Human Sovereign's Sacred Sword. Then, his identity was surely revealed, wasn't it?
The guardian smiled faintly. "That's right. I am the Human Sovereign."
Boom—
It was like a bolt of thunder from a clear sky exploded.
Ye Chen drew a sharp breath. The guardian of the sixteenth level was actually the peerless Human Sovereign, the invincible Supreme Human Sovereign in his youth!
The youth of the strongest existence across the myriad realms had appeared, taking form as the guardian of the sixteenth level.
No wonder he had felt such familiarity upon their first meeting. So it was him, the peerless Human Sovereign of past and present.
However, 'Human Sovereign' was merely a title for the supreme ruler who presided over the rise and fall of the myriad domains. He didn't know which generation's Supreme Human Sovereign from history this young Human Sovereign before him was.
Moreover, this young Human Sovereign was incredibly powerful. Ye Chen even suspected that the Human Sovereign was also a supreme genius of the Tenth Heaven.
Although he himself was the first supreme genius to break through to the Tenth Heaven after the Mythical Era, perhaps the position of Human Sovereign had the potential to help one reach this step. Otherwise, no matter how powerful this young Human Sovereign before him was, he shouldn't be this formidable.
"All Eternity Turns to Void!"
The young Human Sovereign shouted lightly, unleashing the mightiest sound. He swung the Heaven's Sword in his hand as if to cleave the entire world in two. Between heaven and earth, only that incomparably brilliant sword light remained, illuminating past and present.
All Great Dao laws receded. Ye Chen felt that even his Heaven and Earth Creation, unleashed by his sacred fist, was about to collapse and scatter.
This was the Human Sovereign's peerless ultimate move, capable of dispersing all Great Dao laws, turning everything into void. Even the supreme existence of the alien race descending along the River of Time had almost fallen to this move.
Although it couldn't compare to the battle on the River of Time, it was still terrifyingly powerful now, seeking to strip away all Dao and laws from this world.
"Roar—"
Ye Chen let out a great roar. Golden blood energy boiled throughout his body. His black hair danced wildly as if countless fearsome black dragons were roaring.
His sacred fist continued its motion. The Chaos Blood refined within his body erupted directly, surging into his sacred fist. Powerful primordial Chaos Qi surged tumultuously, and myriad Dao marks manifested, empowering the sacred fist, instantly elevating the might of Heaven and Earth Creation by a large margin.
Blessed by inspiration, at this very moment, Ye Chen himself manifested the Chaos Dao, instantly pushing his own Dao and techniques to the absolute peak of this lifetime. In an instant, he tore through the barrier of the Saint Treasury Realm, firmly establishing himself within this domain. He stood like an invincible Chaos Saint, unleashing an earth-shattering, mightiest punch.
On his fist, a great world manifested, even giving birth to one dazzling ancient star after another, rising and falling, rotating, illuminating the myriad realms. It was as if it contained an entire universe, fully displaying the supreme essence of Heaven and Earth Creation.
Ye Chen didn't know if he could ever unleash such a supreme, consummate punch again in this life. But at this moment, he only wanted to face the invincible Human Sovereign in his youth and defeat him.
"What a punch! To instantly refine it to the supreme consummate level. You haven't disappointed me. It's just a pity!"
The young Human Sovereign's eyes flashed brilliantly, dazzling and piercing, filled with pleasant surprise, yet also helplessness and regret—a very complex expression.
Boom—
The sacred fist met the sacred sword. Infinite light exploded. This world seemed on the verge of complete annihilation. Floating Divine Islands shattered one after another. The earth cracked, the heavens fragmented. The entire world seemed plunged into doomsday.
The terrifying might seemed about to destroy the entire great world, reaching everywhere without limit, everything on the verge of destruction.
In the end, everything dissipated. The magnificent and beautiful paradise vanished. Only the tragic, unbearable scars of battle remained on the earth, a scene of utter devastation.
If this weren't the trial space within the Human Sovereign Pagoda, the surrounding ten thousand miles in the outside world would surely have been utterly destroyed.
Pfft—
Ye Chen's entire body was nearly blown apart. He was covered in wounds. Floating in the void were his flesh and saintly bones. The lower half of his body and his right fist that had unleashed Heaven and Earth Creation were completely shattered.
His injuries were extremely severe.
On the other side, the young Human Sovereign was also severely wounded, his injuries similar to Ye Chen's. Only half his body remained, yet he still appeared magnificent and peerless. He circulated a divine nature, an immortal sacred art. His shattered flesh and blood reversed course, rapidly reassembling.
From this, Ye Chen sensed a familiar divine fluctuation. His pupils abruptly contracted—
"The Divine King Rebirth Art!?"
That's right, this was the Divine King Rebirth Art. He was proficient in the Great Dao essence of this healing sacred art; how could he not recognize it?
This was the Great Dao sacred art created by that Human King who astonished all ages in ancient times. The Human Sovereign actually mastered it too.
But he shook his head. After all, this was the supreme Human Sovereign, ruler of the myriad domains. Him mastering it wasn't surprising.
Watching the young Human Sovereign quickly reassemble completely, Ye Chen naturally did the same, circulating the Saint Body Regeneration Art. But at this moment, he was horrified to discover that the healing sacred art from the Battle Saint Art, which had never failed before, was ineffective.
He tried circulating the Divine King Rebirth Art, with the same result.
How could this be?
Ye Chen's expression changed repeatedly. Moreover, he felt that the Great Dao laws of heaven and earth had receded at this moment, undoubtedly because of the "All Eternity Turns to Void" the young Human Sovereign had unleashed earlier.
This was the Human Sovereign's supreme sacred art, peerless and unmatched, capable of dispersing all Great Dao laws, making them imperceptible.
By the same logic, it could naturally prevent all divine abilities and dao techniques from being activated.
He had only forcibly broken through earlier by relying on the Chaos Dao. But now it was impossible. His strength had even fallen back to the Demi-Saint level. All Eternity Turns to Void was truly transcendent, rendering even the Battle God Seal ineffective.
"This isn't a fair battle. You are powerful, but you are not truly in the Saint Treasury Realm. Breaking through with the Battle God Seal has flaws, making it difficult to reach the true level of a young generation's supreme. When you return to the Saint realm, you and I can have a true battle."
The young Human Sovereign smiled faintly. "In fact, you've already done very well to reach this point. Indeed, you are very likely the key 'him,' the one in whom we have placed great hopes, the supreme figure for the future battle. But you are still very weak now. The future battle will be arduous. You should grow stronger as quickly as possible."
"For now, you should return. This place is not suitable for you."
"We have waited for so many years. We hope you will not disappoint us all, that you can reach that step."
Boom—
The young Human Sovereign swung the Human Sovereign's Sacred Sword again, unleashing ten thousand layers of sword radiance that transformed into an endless ocean of sword light, flooding over.
Pfft—
Ye Chen's Supreme Dao Body completely dissipated, not a single trace remaining.
