Within the Hundred Battles Mountain Range, Ye Chen remained transcendent. He had not moved half a step, yet the space within a one-zhang radius around him was stable; no attack could draw near.
He continuously grasped at the residual traces of laws, even the Great Dao laws from the battling Saints, all of which he guided over and repeatedly infused into his own body, over and over again.
He was mysterious. No one had detected that within this very region, a person like him existed.
Boom—
Blood light shot into the sky. Ye Chen looked over coldly. At the peak of the battlefield, another powerful overlord had fallen, slain, his body shattered and his spirit completely annihilated.
In a melee of this level, even overlords who usually dominated the world were not safe; a single misstep could lead to death.
A massive overlord-level beast core dropped down—the Great Dao essence of that overlord-level Beast King. Some severely depleted powerhouses wanted to seize it.
Whoosh—
Ye Chen acted in an instant. He traversed the sky with extreme speed, and the beast core, larger than a human head, appeared in his hand. The various Saints who wanted to compete were left dumbfounded, unable to react in time, and could not even see clearly.
Too fast. Without the power of laws, Ye Chen's physical strength granted him peerless speed, far surpassing the Saint Vault realm.
The beast core was directly stored into Old Yan's Ancient Ring. Unable to use his internal space, he could only rely on the space within the Ancient Ring, accessible with a single thought.
But this was merely a single action. Afterwards, Ye Chen faded from view, always watching everything with indifference, remaining an onlooker.
As Ye Chen glanced back, he saw that the young prodigies among the human race were playing a significant role in the great battle.
For instance, the Crown Prince of Xiang Kingdom, clad in silver armor and wreathed in divine radiance, was exceptionally heroic and outstanding, a true prodigy of heaven. He was actually able to engage in fierce combat with an overlord-level Beast King of the beast race, the battle intensely violent.
Although he was stained with blood, his divine might was undiminished, making him appear even more heroic.
The Crown Prince of Hua Guo was the same. First, he slew an Ancient Saint-level great demonic beast, then confronted a previous-generation demonic overlord, not falling behind by much.
But he also saw some young prodigies quickly suffer setbacks, with several ultimately being killed, their blood splattering across the sky.
Even their elders were powerless, for in such a chaotic melee of Saints, they themselves were struggling to stay safe, let alone protect others.
The coldly beautiful princess of Lan Kingdom was also attacked by an overlord-level Beast King of the beast race—a massive black-striped tiger, exceedingly powerful. Although the coldly beautiful princess was also a Saint, she was no match for the striped tiger and was directly sent flying.
"Xia Bing'er!"
The other cold soul sharing the body, Xia Miao'er, cried out sharply. She naturally saw this scene and her heart sank as she prepared to intervene. But another overlord-level demonic Saint appeared before her, launching a frenzied assault, leaving her no time to spare. She could only watch helplessly, her almond-shaped eyes wide with fury, nearly driven mad.
"Seeking death!"
Xia Miao'er coldly shouted, her jade palm striking out. Divine might erupted, terrifyingly powerful, but her opponent was a demonic overlord of a generation who directly blocked it, snorting coldly, "Wanting to save someone? Not so easy!"
The overlord-level Tiger King roared as it arrived, appearing before the coldly beautiful princess, looming over her. A single claw swipe descended, about to snuff out her fragrant life.
Even the Sovereign of Lan Kingdom wanted to rescue her but was too late, blocked by another Saint Lord-level enemy, causing his expression to change slightly.
The coldly beautiful princess's pretty face turned deathly pale. But at this moment, she suddenly remembered the blood-red pearl that mysterious, ordinary-yet-extraordinary man had gifted her as a return gift for the spatial scroll. Though she didn't know if it would work, she had no other choice now. She directly crushed it.
Boom—
In an instant, a terrifying blood light appeared, then transformed into a dazzling golden radiance.
One could feel an overwhelmingly powerful and terrifying force surging from within that pearl, sweeping across this part of the Hundred Battles Mountain Range, drawing the attention of all sides. Even Saint Lord-level existences were momentarily stunned.
"Such powerful force. How could Bing'er possess such power?" Even the Sovereign of Lan Kingdom was greatly astonished.
Others paled even more.
Under the dazzling golden light, a mysterious figure condensed into form—tall and straight in stature, heroic and solitary.
His features were unclear, but standing there alone, he seemed like a Divine Spirit descending from the Nine Heavens, possessing an invincible majesty that would make all Saints bow and kneel, all living beings in the ten directions prostrate in worship!
Who was this? Why was he so powerful? Was it a projection of a Divine Spirit from the Nine Heavens?
The various Saints were greatly shocked. Outside the Hundred Battles Mountain Range, from within the carriage, the Young Ancestor shot forth a gaze that seemed almost tangible, and a low voice emerged: "Golden blood energy... Could it be someone from that lineage has come..."
At this moment, the three supreme powerages battling in the starry sky beyond the domain sensed a slight fluctuation and were somewhat surprised. Had another supreme powerhouse come to contend for the Chaos Supreme Treasure? But sensing it was merely a blood energy figure, they relaxed.
Only the Peacock King was overjoyed: "This blood energy... it's Qian Yue's!"
In the distance, the blood energy within Ye Chen's body boiled, nearly surging out to resonate with it, but he suppressed it.
He hadn't expected the blood pearl he gifted the coldly beautiful princess to come in handy so soon.
The heroic figure stood solitary between heaven and earth. Though merely an Imprint, a figure formed from blood energy, the pressure it emanated was more terrifying than that of a Saint Lord-level powerhouse.
This mysterious figure's form swung out a single fist, striking towards the hostile overlord-level Beast King.
Boom—
With just this one punch, that overlord-level Beast King was utterly unable to resist. It let out a miserable cry and directly exploded, its body shattered to pieces.
This scene made many present gulp hard.
Even the coldly beautiful princess was dumbfounded. She knew that man might be an extremely powerful figure, but she never imagined he would be terrifying to such an excessive degree. A single pearl he gave her could kill an overlord-level existence with one strike. It was unbelievable.
If a mere blood pearl was this powerful, how much more fearsome would the person himself be?
Unfortunately, after that single strike, the heroic figure suddenly dissipated. The blood light it transformed into formed a layer of golden gauze clothing that draped over the coldly beautiful princess, protecting her.
This made many powerages sigh in relief. Facing that mysterious supreme powerhouse would have been quite stressful.
Although the heroic figure had vanished, the golden gauze possessed powerful protective strength. Even attacks from overlord-level powerages landing on her were greatly weakened in force. With Xia Bing'er, the coldly beautiful princess's own defenses, she could completely withstand them.
