Ye Chen saw the human ancient city.
He had completely traversed the Million Mountains and actually arrived on the other side of the Million Mountains.
From the mountaintop, he could see the bustling ancient city on the ground, as well as numerous lively towns that had been established at the edge of the Million Mountains. People were coming and going, a scene of great liveliness.
He also saw numerous mercenary groups continuously entering the depths of the Million Mountains. It was a prosperous area, far more bustling than the region where the barbarian tribes resided by many times.
But this region was very special, shaped like a slender, sharp sword thrusting into the Million Mountains. Its shape was very narrow and long, no more than a dozen li wide.
Ye Chen was somewhat stunned. He hadn't expected to inadvertently traverse the entire Million Mountains in the end. If those mercenary groups knew, they would probably be scared to death.
Because the Million Mountains were simply too dangerous; they were not something ordinary people could cross.
Ye Chen only paused for a moment before leaping forward. With a whoosh, the blood within his body boiled as if a True Dragon was awakening. In a single leap spanning thousands of zhang, he crossed from one side of the narrow strip to the other, disappearing into the vast mountains.
If anyone had seen it, they would have been dumbfounded. Just how powerful must one's physical strength be to accomplish this? It was truly hard to believe.
But he was too fast. Even a Saint would find it difficult to detect his traces. In the blink of an eye, he vanished into the vast expanse of the Million Mountains.
However, he was unaware that at this very moment, an astonishing piece of news was circulating within the bustling region of the narrow strip—
"Did you know? Saint Wan Hua has come, Saint Zhang Xia has come, Saint Yang Tian has come, and even Saints from empires and ancient kingdoms like the Huang Kingdom, Gu Wei Kingdom, and Cang Lan Kingdom have come. Over thirty Saint-level figures have arrived in total."
This was the news that spread like wildfire throughout the edge of the Million Mountains on this day, causing a huge uproar.
Saints, to the people of the world, were not common even on the Ancient Emperor Continent. On the contrary, they were very rare and had always been lofty, transcendent figures who had entered the realm of sainthood.
Whether in the mortal world or within the one hundred and eight divine kingdoms like the Thirty-Six Empires and Seventy-Two Ancient Kingdoms, they enjoyed extremely high status and were rarely seen on ordinary days.
Especially in a region like the edge of the Million Mountains, a Saint might not appear for decades or even centuries. At their level, they naturally would not enter the Million Mountains to hunt demonic beasts or fierce beasts for money.
Yet now, not only had they appeared, but so many had appeared at once. There were even rumors that among them were great figures of the level of Ancient Saints, overlords, and even Saint Lords. The lineup was unprecedentedly powerful.
It was said that they could probably sweep through one of the Seventy-Two Kingdoms.
What earth-shattering event had occurred to cause this?
"Heavens, why have so many Saints come? They are all lofty super beings, difficult to meet on ordinary days. Why have they all appeared at once?"
Many people were shocked. Moreover, such figures were usually like divine dragons—seen only the head, not the tail—rarely glimpsed. For so many to appear at once, and to appear at the edge of the human Domain in the Million Mountains, was something worth pondering for the world.
Soon, another astonishing piece of news arrived, even more explosive than the arrival of the Saints.
Because someone had obtained accurate inside information: the main reason attracting so many Saints from across the world was that in the Hundred Battles Mountain Range deep within the Million Mountains, someone had discovered a peerless Chaos Supreme Treasure that had fallen from the Nine Heavens into it.
"What? A Chaos Supreme Treasure!"
"That's right. Not just human Saints, but even powerful beings from the demon and beast domains have rushed over to contend for this Chaos Supreme Treasure."
"Then have any experts from the Dark Night Hall, the Sun God Dynasty, or the Tai Sheng Upper Palace appeared to contend for such a Chaos Supreme Treasure?"
"That's not too clear. In any case, whether from the Thirty-Six Empires and Seventy-Two Ancient Kingdoms or the various major powers across the world, many super experts have specially rushed over to contend for the Chaos Supreme Treasure. We should go and watch. A heaven-shaking, earth-shattering great battle is about to unfold. Not to be missed."
"Great battle? Are you crazy? That's a Saint-level great battle. It can collapse mountains and rivers for thousands of li with the slightest move. Going over there is purely seeking death."
"This level of battle can already be counted among the few Divine Wars in the history of our Ancient Emperor Continent over the past ten thousand years. It would be a real shame not to watch. When the time comes, we can completely rely on the All-Seeing Divine Eye to observe the battle."
Such situations occurred in almost every ancient city at the edge of the Million Mountains. The arrival of the great Saints from across the world, an unprecedented peak feast, attracted countless people rushing to the Hundred Battles Mountain Range to watch the great battle.
After all, that level of peak battle, where Saints clashed at the slightest provocation, was not something one could see just by wanting to.
Naturally, as some said, that level of battle could collapse mountains and rivers for thousands of li with the slightest move. They dared not get too close, avoiding being caught in the crossfire.
On this day, in the sky above the Million Mountains, streams of light appeared from all directions, all radiating powerful Dao auras that shook heaven and earth, causing the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths to tremble. It was truly astonishing.
Because everyone knew that those were Saints, lofty beings beyond ordinary comprehension.
They were all peerless figures who dominated a region, usually lofty and difficult to meet. But today, they had all appeared, and in no small numbers. They came from all over the human Domain—from the Thirty-Six Empires and Seventy-Two Ancient Kingdoms, from various major sects, and also reclusive super experts, all making their appearance.
They streaked across the sky, their auras shaking heaven and earth, causing immense astonishment and attracting the attention of the world. Countless cultivators, unafraid of death, chased after them to watch an unprecedented super Saint battle.
Perhaps this level of battle even had the qualification to be listed among the Divine Wars in the annals of history.
To witness it once would leave no regrets even in death!
At the same time, Ye Chen was also swiftly traversing, roaming through the Million Mountains.
But when he arrived at the location where he sensed the Human Sovereign Pagoda, he was shocked to discover that within that area, powerful Dao auras were emerging one after another. Each one was so astonishing, all genuine Saint Treasury Realm Dao auras.
A rough count revealed no fewer than fifty super experts of this level—a huge number.
Moreover, looking back, in the skies all around, powerful Saint auras were rapidly appearing one after another, continuously descending into this area.
"What on earth has happened?"
Even Ye Chen was somewhat puzzled, clearly caught off guard by this situation, or to be more precise, not understanding it at all.
Suddenly, he had a certain not-so-good premonition. He understood. The source of all this was perhaps his own Human Sovereign Pagoda.
Ye Chen's heart immediately sank.
