All the heroes retreated far away to avoid any mishap, some even boarding Great Power-level ancient ships to observe the battle from a distance.
The True Kings stared intently, observing the Battle Saint King, seeking to understand his strength.
The Human Sovereign's path had not yet ended; there was still hope for one more day.
Moreover, they were all on the verge of achieving great perfection in their Supreme Laws. Once they did, they would possess the capital to contend with Ye Chen. Now was the crucial moment to gather intelligence on their most formidable enemy.
Yet, recalling the time within the Martial Arts Divine Stone space when Ye Chen confronted the Bloodclad Heavenly King, his body wreathed in invincible primordial Chaos Qi, their hearts sank once more.
For the Battle Saint King still concealed even more astonishing secrets, having only revealed a corner or two.
At the same time, Ye Chen's formidable prowess was on full display. The sharp, spiked claws that could easily shatter Saint weapons attacked, accompanied by swathes of law Dao marks. Yet, when they landed on the Battle Saint King's Indestructible Golden Body, they only produced a metallic clanging sound, sparks flying in a continuous stream.
His body remained unbroken, his skin and hair undamaged, with only faint white marks left behind. This displayed the most world-shaking Indestructible Golden Body, enough to amaze even Heavenly Kings.
Boom—
The Battle Saint King's gaze was profound and calm. He threw punches, his attacks always simple yet forceful and brutal.
Each swing of his fist seemed to propel an entire world into the attack, capable of dispersing the chaotic storms within the surrounding heaven and earth, preventing them from drawing near. Striking the Mother Queen, it caused her body—far tougher than a Saint weapon—to tremble. One after another, her claws shattered, even exploded, unable to withstand the onslaught.
In just a few breaths, over seventy of the Insectoid Mother Queen's claws had been shattered by Ye Chen's punches. Emerald-green poisonous blood sprayed through the void, capable of corroding space itself, yet unable to reach Ye Chen.
His body was like a furnace, his golden blood energy burning into holy flames, incinerating and neutralizing all the poisonous blood.
"So strong! Truly the Battle Saint King who reigns supreme in battle!"
All the heroes marveled. What kind of supreme power was this to achieve such a feat? The Battle Saint King truly seemed poised to dominate the world.
That level of combat prowess even left Heavenly Kings feeling dazzled.
But the True Kings understood that at this point, the Battle Saint King hadn't even used his true strength. Otherwise, given his level where he could battle the Bloodclad Heavenly King to the point of shattering stars, the Mother Queen, no matter how powerful, would be no match for him.
Moreover, after observing long enough, everyone was horrified to discover an astonishing fact: later on, the Battle Saint King didn't use any law power at all. He completely restrained it within his body, relying solely on his pure physical body to confront the Mother Queen creature, while still being able to fly.
Everyone was greatly shocked. The strength of this physical treasure body was simply beyond imagination. All could sense how terrifying the blood energy within the Battle Saint King's body was, roaring swiftly, greater than a tsunami, deafening, tearing the void as it trembled. Each punch and kick contained the most supreme power within heaven and earth.
The dark light laws emanating from the Insectoid Mother Queen's body were shattered by this pure physical power, the dark light scattering.
Roar—
The Mother Queen roared, the screech piercing. Layer upon layer of void cracked. Furthermore, hundreds of sharp claw spikes moved simultaneously, weaving thousands upon thousands of shadows, all attacking Ye Chen together, aiming to pierce him into a sieve.
If anyone else had stepped forward, they would have been pierced into a sieve long ago. Even a peak Saint Vault realm expert at their zenith would meet the same fate.
But Ye Chen merely swung his right fist. The surging golden blood energy within exploded, spontaneously transforming into golden great cauldrons, golden divine bells, heaven-piercing divine swords, heavenly millstones, and other golden Dao weapons. These were not divine abilities, but rather a method imitating Xiantian manifestation, condensed from his own blood energy.
Each golden Dao weapon was a condensation of Saint Body blood energy, not a peerless divine ability like the Five Elements Golden Realm. Under Ye Chen's blood energy, which rivaled that of a Great Power-level physical body, they were in no way inferior to deploying the Five Elements Golden Realm. Using these, he withstood the majority of the Insectoid Mother Queen's attacks.
Not to mention the heroes, even Heavenly Kings' eyes shone with brilliance, revealing looks of disbelief.
To evolve divine abilities from blood energy—what an extraordinary feat! They themselves could not achieve it. It was a lofty boundary reached only after the human body broke through the shackles of heaven and earth, a level even ancient Great Sages found difficult to attain.
Moreover, from the crown of Ye Chen's head erupted the thickest golden great dragon, swimming through the long sky. Its supple, massive dragon body directly coiled around the Insectoid Mother Queen's form, accompanied by endless golden tribulation. Streaks of pale golden lightning continuously attacked the Insectoid Mother Queen.
Swish—
Ye Chen flashed over, employing his supreme fist to sever the egg-laying sac beneath the Mother Queen's abdomen. Green blood splattered as the Mother Queen shrieked and roared.
But Ye Chen directly devoured the life essence of those nearly hatched hundred-thousand-level small eggs. At most, it was comparable to the life essence of twenty to thirty thousand zhang-tall large eggs, but it was still a considerable amount.
His aura grew strong once more.
This caused some ancient recluses below to grow envious, but upon seeing the fearsome Mother Queen and the Battle Saint King whose fists could shatter the eight directions, they could only sigh helplessly.
The Insectoid Mother Queen went completely mad, struggling frantically, desperately trying to kill Ye Chen.
But that golden divine dragon held the Insectoid Mother Queen firmly locked in place, unable to move.
Ye Chen descended with a swish onto the flattened head of the Insectoid Mother Queen, looking down from a commanding height, transmitting a divine sense message—
"Submit to me."
"Hu...man... nev...never!"
Unexpectedly, the Insectoid Mother Queen transmitted such words, carrying a hint of sentience, rejecting Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was taken aback. He hadn't expected the Insectoid Mother Queen to possess some sentience. But clearly, the Mother Queen had no desire to submit to Ye Chen, an instinct born from its nature as a noble Insectoid Mother Queen, a lofty existence even among insectoids.
Pfft—
A large expanse of emerald blood light exploded. Ye Chen swung a palm blade, directly slicing off over a hundred claws, his palm and fingers flowing with crystalline jade luster.
Moreover, he stamped his foot down forcefully. An immense, peerless power instantly acted upon the Insectoid Mother Queen's head. Its hard skull immediately cracked, blood continuously spurting out.
This was the might of a young generation's supreme—the power of a single foot could shake mountains and rivers, collapse space and time.
"Ah—"
The Insectoid Mother Queen shrieked, the sound unbearably piercing. Layer upon layer of void shattered.
Ye Chen stamped his foot once more, this time imbued with the dragon's majesty—the pressure of the supreme holy spirit among all races. The insectoid race could not resist it, instantly becoming dazed.
"How is it possible to contain dragon's majesty!?"
"Submit to me."
Still the same words, but the tone was much colder, carrying a sharp killing intent.
The Insectoid Mother Queen dared not oppose any longer. Ye Chen then employed a Primordial Spirit divine ability he had mastered, learned from within the Martial Arts Divine Stone space. Among them was a Primordial Spirit Dao art for establishing a master-servant bond. He immediately planted a Primordial Spirit mark.
From then on, this Insectoid Mother Queen completely became a subordinate slave under Ye Chen's command.
