The light on Ye Chen's injured fist flickered as it rapidly repaired itself. He gazed coldly at the two ancient recluses. If it were just the two of them, he truly wished to strike and kill these two old monsters.
But it was clearly difficult. Not to mention the considerable time it would take to kill the two old monsters, the other powerhouses wouldn't just stand by and watch him do it.
Soon, attacks from the other Saints manifested, launching a full-scale bombardment.
Ye Chen engaged in a great battle with all the powerhouses of the three great imperial dynasties, including the two ancient recluses alongside the Sovereign, seven Saint Lord-level existences, eighteen overlords, and numerous Saints.
Furthermore, numerous formations appeared, unleashing a comprehensive assault to encircle and kill the Battle Saint King within.
It must be said this was a peak-level battle of one man against three imperial dynasties, worthy of being recorded in the annals of history.
The whole world was shaken. It had long attracted the close attention of all factions across the Ancient Divine Continent. Even powerhouses from other imperial dynasties spared no expense, using precious resources to open teleportation gates to observe.
Because the great battle in the Ancient Hua imperial capital caused such immense fluctuations, the spatial gates of the Ancient Hua Empire had long been closed. Powerhouses from other dynasties arriving needed to use their foundational resources to rush here quickly.
Outside the Ancient Hua imperial capital, a great number of powerhouses from the Ancient Divine Continent had come to watch. Even many True Kings had arrived.
The world was astounded. Could it be that the Battle Saint King truly intended to overthrow the entire Ancient Hua imperial dynasty single-handedly today?
That was one of the nine Overlord-level powers dominating the Ancient Divine Continent. If it were truly overthrown, the impact would be nearly earth-shattering, if not unprecedented.
But many shook their heads.
Although the Battle Saint King had achieved illustrious feats, even suppressing and killing a Saint Lord with a raise of his hand, his might unparalleled, few still viewed him favorably.
Because he faced not one person, not one Saint Lord, but an entire ancient imperial dynasty. Its immense accumulation over millennia had long reached a terrifying level.
Moreover, once that slumbering Heavenly King ancestor awakened, no one believed the Battle Saint King could remain so invincible.
Within the vast imperial palace stretching for thousands of miles, layers upon layers of pavilions and palaces stood tall, magnificent and grand, overflowing with immortal energy. In the void, powerful figures appeared one after another, densely packed, enveloping the entire palace.
All the heritage of the Ancient Hua imperial dynasty was about to be revealed.
Not to mention the Chang Hua imperial dynasty and the Liu Xia Empire.
Among the True Kings who arrived were the Sun God, Yuan Yao Divine King, Feng Wu, and others. Watching Ye Chen standing alone on the battlefield, invincible under heaven, they felt a sense of shock but also a hint of impropriety.
Because such an action was clearly not a wise choice. No matter how powerful Ye Chen was, it would be difficult for him to overthrow the entire Ancient Hua imperial dynasty. It would only provoke the most terrifying Heavenly King, bringing harm without benefit.
His Path Refinement and Body Tempering were complete. Why continue the battle instead of leaving?
Clearly, the Battle Saint King's actions had a deeper rationale. Any True King who understood Ye Chen wouldn't believe he was foolishly engaging in a massive fight.
"Everyone, take action! Prepare to summon our heritage power, activate the ancestral formation to trap the Battle Saint King, then summon the ancestral weapon!"
An ancient recluse spoke. Although he wasn't the Sovereign, even the Sovereign had to bow half a generation lower to him. His words sometimes carried even more weight than the Sovereign's.
With the ancient recluse personally speaking, the other imperial dynasty powerhouses dared not neglect him, hurriedly preparing to summon their heritage. This required some time, as any heritage was almost always a forbidden power that deterred the mortal world, not to be underestimated.
The powerhouses of the Chang Hua Empire and Liu Xia Empire also quickly sent messages, requesting reinforcements from their respective dynasties and the mobilization of heritage power.
At this point, they couldn't stand idly by and watch the Ancient Hua imperial dynasty deplete its heritage for nothing. Because if the Battle Saint King successfully escaped, both great dynasties would be targeted by this fearsome viper—no, this growing divine dragon. The consequences would be severe, with the gravest being the potential overthrow of an entire imperial dynasty at any moment. This was no idle talk.
Boom—
Ye Chen's expression was cold. He raised his fist and shook it. One hundred and eight divine light dragons soared out, dancing across the heavens, blocking all attacks. They even annihilated a unit of the Ancient Hua imperial dynasty's Forbidden Army, whose overall strength rivaled that of a Saint Lord, in the distance. Blood light splattered everywhere.
This was also part of the Ancient Hua imperial dynasty's heritage, a power that deterred the world. Yet it was just overthrown by the Battle Saint King without even launching an attack, chilling people to the bone.
Having such a unit of Forbidden Army power destroyed, even a great ancient imperial dynasty would feel immense heartache.
But before they could even feel the heartache, a golden, radiant great world suddenly unfolded behind the Battle Saint King. It was the invincible Five Elements Golden Realm. Countless golden Dao weapons wantonly flew out like a golden meteor shower, reaching everywhere.
Although several Saint Lord-level figures and the two ancient recluses acted in time and activated the palace's formations, three Saints were still blasted apart. Saying they were not worth a single blow was no exaggeration at all.
Within the Saint Treasury Realm, each step was a world apart. But the Battle Saint King disregarded everything. With his body at the sixth level of the Saint Treasury Realm, he swept through all, suppressing the multitude of Saints.
Ultimately, it was his invincible Path, his invincible Battle Sacred Body, and his invincible divine abilities. The combination of the three pushed aside all peerless enemies.
Rumble—
The heavens collapsed and the earth split, blood light splattering everywhere. Under the astonished gazes of all, a Saint Lord from the Liu Xia Empire was instantly reached by the Battle Saint King with lightning speed and killed with a single punch.
Another Saint Lord had fallen.
Even the Saint Lord-level Dao weapon protecting him exploded into countless fragments.
On this battlefield, even powerful Saint Lords couldn't guarantee their own safety, let alone others. Fear gripped their hearts. Who dared step forward to fight?
The Battle Saint King was invincible, like a war god descending from the immortal realm, fundamentally unstoppable, pushing through three thousand great worlds.
Even the Ancient Hua imperial dynasty saw Saints slain one after another. Two Saint Lords had already fallen in succession. The Chang Hua and Liu Xia Empires each lost one Saint Lord. Other powerhouses were too numerous to count.
The sprawling palace complex, resembling a celestial palace, had countless structures shattered, leaving a scene of devastation with countless casualties.
Only the Battle Saint King remained standing alone on the battlefield, black hair draped over his shoulders, eyes profound, resembling a war immortal. Who could contend with him?
The world finally saw it clearly. It wasn't that the Battle Saint King wanted to escape. He never attempted to break the formations. His indifferent, merciless demeanor clearly indicated an attitude of fighting the three great imperial dynasties to the death.
Madness. It also chilled the world to the bone, let alone the three great imperial dynasties. Even if they killed the Battle Saint King today, the Ancient Hua imperial dynasty, as the main battlefield, was destined to remain weakened for ten thousand years to come. Too many powerhouses had died, and too much heritage had been depleted.
"Hurry and summon the ancestral weapon to emerge! Otherwise, everyone here will die!"
The two ancient recluses urgently shouted, feeling a terror rising from the depths of their hearts when facing Ye Chen.
The Ancient Hua Sovereign dared not be negligent any longer. He immediately began the summoning, and several other Saint Lords of the Ancient Hua imperial dynasty also started chanting scriptures, jointly summoning the ancestral weapon that suppressed the dynasty's heritage.
Boom—
A pillar of divine light shot straight into the heavens, piercing into the firmament, radiating a Dao aura that surpassed the Saint Treasury Realm. It was a Heavenly King-level ancient Dao weapon, finally emerging at this moment.
