The Sea God King had suffered a crushing defeat!
Even after unleashing the Divine Demon fragment of the Primordial Divine Demon King, it was still far from being a match for Ye Chen.
Just how powerful was this force, completely overwhelming the Primordial Divine Demon King.
Ye Chen intended to strike again, to utterly kill the Sea God King on the spot. Whether it was the killing intent the Sea God King had shown earlier or his identity as a descendant of the Primordial Divine Demon King, he had to be suppressed and slain.
In one step, he arrived before the Sea God King's Divine Demon form, raising his hand to slap towards his forehead, intending to annihilate his Primordial Spirit.
At that moment, a Great Dao secret treasure swiftly shot out from the Sea God King's body—a treasure from the supreme sacred land he belonged to, possessing immense power and radiating bone-chilling cold.
It was a treasure cauldron, its entire body emitting azure divine radiance, illuminating the heavens. The moment it appeared, the temperature between heaven and earth plummeted many times over.
The cauldron seemed to contain the coldest substance, freezing the surrounding void solid.
"The Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron!?"
The other seven True Kings, who had retreated far away, narrowed their eyes in surprise upon seeing this azure treasure cauldron.
The origin of this Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron was indeed extraordinary. It was a secret treasure of the Vast Sea Sacred Land, one of the supreme sacred lands at the center of the Myriad Domains. In terms of rank alone, it was at the Heavenly King level, but its origin traced back to that Heavenly King-level Great Dao ancient weapon once used by the Vast Sea Great Power.
When the Vast Sea Great Power attained the Great Power realm, he found a priceless divine material and forged another Great Dao ancient weapon. Thus, the Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron was left behind.
Although it was a Heavenly King-level Great Dao ancient weapon, it had been refined once more by the Vast Sea Great Power, bearing some Great Power-level runic imprints upon it, making it no ordinary Heavenly King-level Great Dao ancient weapon.
Now, the Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron revived, unleashing powerful might that enveloped the Sea God King.
Ye Chen coldly watched this great cauldron, his Primordial Battle Body appearing in his hand, Faith Power within his brow ready to flow. If this Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron truly attacked, he would surely destroy it.
Boom—
The Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron erupted with boundless blue light, waves of destructive power surging forth like raging tides. Just as everyone thought it was about to attack the Battle Saint King, suddenly, the cauldron tore through the void and fled far away.
The Sea God King's goal was no longer to kill the Battle Saint King, but to escape, for the Battle Saint King was too terrifying.
"Thinking of leaving? Not so easy!"
Ye Chen snorted coldly. Just as the Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron was about to flee, he struck with lightning speed, directly summoning the Human Sovereign Pagoda. The thirty-three-layer Supreme Imperial Weapon, even without fully reviving, pressed forward, streams of primordial Chaos Qi cascading down, thousands upon thousands of strands, crashing against the entire Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron, causing sparks to fly and preventing it from immediately plunging into the void to escape.
Seizing this opportunity, Ye Chen fiercely attacked, wielding his Heaven-Shaking Palm, unleashing a full thirty-six palm strikes upon the Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron. The clanging sounds were incessant.
In the end, the Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron still broke free from the Human Sovereign Pagoda's restraint and fled far away, but that patch of void was left with a vast expanse of blood.
It was clear that even with the revived protection of the Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron, Ye Chen's power had still penetrated it, inflicting severe damage upon the Sea God King.
Ye Chen stared in the direction the Profound Heaven Frost Cauldron had fled, not giving chase, only snorting coldly, "Consider yourself fast!"
Then, with a grasping motion of his hand, the Sea God King's string of blood reversed course and was drawn back, stored within the World Seed inside his body to be sealed.
This was the blood of the Primordial Divine Demon King, and the Divine Demon fragment had been revived. It could be thoroughly studied to understand the Great Dao fragments of the Primordial Divine Demon King, greatly aiding in the perfection of his Chaos Dao.
After all, he had stepped onto the Chaos Dao by studying blood, and this was the blood of the Primordial Divine Demon King—that existence which had once filled the first Human Sovereign with blood and tears. Such a Divine Demon fragment naturally held extraordinary significance.
Although he hadn't completely killed the Sea God King, leaving behind these Primordial Divine Demon King blood fragments was, in a way, a decent harvest.
Afterwards, he glanced towards the other seven True Kings in various distant directions, sweeping his gaze over them indifferently before ignoring them. He turned and left, taking the unsealed Cang Dragon with him as he soared through the sky.
After today's battle, he knew these Immortal True Kings had also learned of his fearsome power, far surpassing theirs. Unless they reached a corresponding realm, they would not seek trouble with him again, showing some reverence.
Not long after, Ye Chen descended upon the imperial capital of the Changhua Empire.
His mere appearance put the entire Changhua Imperial Dynasty on high alert. Numerous formations were fully activated, Saints emerged, and even Heavenly King-level ancestral weapons appeared, confronting him from a distance.
Even facing a Heavenly King's assault, the response would likely be no different.
As one of the three imperial dynasties that had participated in the battle, the Changhua Imperial Dynasty was well aware of the events in the Ancient Hua imperial capital.
Even a Saint Lord had perished there forever, at a heavy cost. How could they not know that the Battle Saint King before them was someone even a Heavenly King personally appearing could not handle, even praised by the Ancient Hua Heavenly King as not inferior to a Heavenly King? How dare they not treat him with utmost caution.
The entire imperial dynasty was even prepared to awaken their ancestor at any moment, for only such a Heavenly King-level figure could step forward to deal with him.
Ye Chen strode forward, witnessing all this. He did not attack, but merely standing outside the imperial capital made countless people dare not be negligent, filled with extreme tension. Who didn't know how terrifying this Battle Saint King was?
The Imperial Sovereign of the Changhua Imperial Dynasty personally came out, clad in armor, speaking to the Battle Saint King from within the imperial capital's formations: "Battle Saint King, may I ask why you have come to our Changhua imperial capital?"
Only to hear the Battle Saint King reply, "Changhua Imperial Dynasty, I, Ye, have never attacked the experts of your imperial dynasty, yet you actually joined forces with the Ancient Hua and Liu Xia imperial dynasties to attack me. Had my cultivation not been strong enough, I would have long been buried. Coming here today is naturally to demand justice."
Hearing this, the people of the Changhua Imperial Dynasty were filled with bitterness, regretting for the first time provoking this Battle Saint King. Not only had they failed to kill him, they had even helped him temper his body and refine his Dao. Now, Ye Chen was even pressing before their imperial capital to demand justice.
The prestigious Changhua Imperial Dynasty, one of the nine ancient imperial dynasties of the Ancient God Continent, an overlord-level force that dominated the continent's rise and fall—when had it ever encountered such an embarrassing scene? Moreover, the entire imperial dynasty had to respond with its highest level of combat readiness.
It was just one person, merely a young junior, yet he had forced a great imperial dynasty into such an awkward position. If word spread, it would be a tremendous disgrace.
However, as long as they recalled the situation in the Ancient Hua Imperial Dynasty's capital—vast stretches of the imperial palace destroyed, several Saint Lords dead, many Saints slain, suffering heavy losses—such consequences were not what they wished to see.
As for the Saint Lord who had died in the previous battle, the loss was also painfully felt, but at this moment, it was completely disregarded. They only wished for the Battle Saint King to leave quickly.
