Ye Chen fiercely assaulted the law shackles. His Four Extremities shone brilliantly—his left hand transformed into an Azure Dragon, his right hand into a White Tiger, his left foot into a Vermilion Bird, and his right foot into a Black Tortoise. Four holy spirits were derived, entwined with four-colored divine radiance, channeling the four fundamental powers of earth, water, fire, and wind to impact the shackles.
And this was far from all. Starting from this moment, his internal organs—heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys—also began to glow one after another, erupting with dazzling five-colored divine radiance that contained the innate Five Elements power of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
If Cang Jitian were here, he would be greatly astonished, for this was clearly his Innate Five Elements Great Dao. Yet when Ye Chen executed it now, it was not the slightest bit inferior to his own.
This showed just what level Ye Chen's comprehension of the Dao had reached.
The Innate Five Elements transformed into five-colored divine radiance of different hues, violently impacting the law shackles. The most terrifying power erupted, carrying countless Great Dao talismans in its collision.
Within the Mud Pill Palace between his brows, the Primordial Spirit figure identical to Ye Chen also stood up tall. In an instant, it transformed into a streak of human-shaped lightning, with blazing bolts of lightning surging forth as it launched a forceful assault.
The Primordial Spirit figure had no law shackles; it was the Mud Pill Palace that was shackled. Thus, it could fully utilize true Great Dao divine abilities.
With a mere raise of its hand, it unleashed one supreme divine ability after another: Heaven-Shaking Palm, Severing Heaven Finger, Heaven-Suppressing Seal, Immortal-Slaying Style, Heaven-Summoning Art, Roc's Eighteen Styles, Four Extremities Connecting to Sage Style, Great Dao Treasure Vessel Seal... All bombarded the shackles with the vow to shatter them, erupting with terrifying radiance.
Both the Primordial Spirit and his own Great Dao began to forcefully assault the law shackles imposed upon his Battle Sacred Body.
Ye Chen intended to use the demon god's will to attack from the outside while his own power attacked from within, launching a pincer assault on the law shackles to jointly open up a clear, bright world!
"Break for me!"
Ye Chen let out a heaven-shaking roar that shook the entire alternate plane. Divine energy swept across the six directions and eight wildernesses, shattering the heavens.
Even the Primordial Times demon god's Teng Snake corpse was impacted, causing the erupting demon god's will to become even more world-shaking, nearly blasting the stars in the sky to complete destruction. This caused the law shackle battle armor on Ye Chen's body to fully manifest.
Moreover, a pillar of the most blazing divine radiance shot up from between Ye Chen's brows, illuminating the heavens and causing the myriad stars to tremble.
His Four Extremities and five organs underwent Extreme Sublimation. A True Dragon, which was the Dragon Origin, traveled along his spine, carrying wisps of chaotic true blood. It mobilized the power of heaven and earth from the Four Extremities and five organs, entered the crown of his head, and was brought into the Mud Pill Palace, further enhancing the power of Ye Chen's Primordial Spirit figure.
Boom—
Every inch of his body radiated brilliant light, accompanied by world-shaking fluctuations of law, launching a full-scale assault.
One could sense that within his Battle Sacred Body, a terrifying, immeasurable Great Dao divine energy was impacting, its divine might overshadowing the world, enough to make even supreme power pale in comparison, far inferior.
Clang, clang, clang—
The faint law remnants and Heavenly King Dao principles contained within the Battle Sacred Body fully manifested, shining with increasingly brilliant and blazing radiance. They actually transformed into numerous figures.
Some human, some demon, some beast—each accompanied by powerful fluctuations, as if deities of the heavens had appeared, guarding every corner of the Battle Sacred Body.
Ye Chen's expression changed. Those were the original owners of the law remnants, each at least a Saint in life, containing a wisp of their indestructible will. They were activated by Ye Chen's assault. Though far from comparable to their former selves, the difficulty had increased dramatically.
To break through the shackles, Ye Chen needed to defeat all the indestructible Great Dao wills on the law remnants.
Crackle—
Simultaneously, Ye Chen's Battle Sacred Body was suffering terrible destruction, ravaged internally by the fierce impact of his own Great Dao.
Blocked by the law shackles and the myriad Saintly figures, all the supreme power erupted within his body. Countless bones and tendons fractured, flesh was mangled, skin split open—it was as if his entire body was about to be crushed to dust and blown apart.
Cough—
Ye Chen bled from all seven orifices. Even every pore oozed golden Saint blood. Covered in blood, a brilliant golden, he appeared utterly miserable and conspicuous.
Finally, Ye Chen collapsed weakly to the ground. Because nearly everything inside his body was destroyed—both flesh and bones were burned to ashes—leaving only a layer of skin, along with the law shackle battle armor.
This was the price.
Using his own Dao as the strongest spear to attack his own body, which had become the strongest shield.
The result was near-total destruction.
Alas, it was not enough. The law shackles were too firm. They autonomously formed a special small heaven and earth, a small world, thoroughly restraining his Dao within his body, making it difficult to break.
Only his physical body was not restrained; instead, it perfectly fused with the law remnants, pushing his combat power to the limit.
Just then, on the Primordial Times demon god's corpse, a faint, indistinct divine sense appeared—an intangible, slender, serpentine soul form.
It could be called a Primordial Spirit, but in essence, it was stronger, even surpassing it—a divine soul-like entity. Yet it was only a remnant soul, shaped like a celestial snake, strikingly identical to the coiled Teng Snake.
Now, the Teng Snake remnant soul swept its gaze toward Ye Chen beneath the corpse. Its eyes flickered rapidly as it muttered to itself, "What an impressive human. His perception is truly sharp, actually able to detect This Venerable One's presence. I was almost discovered."
"Moreover, the invincibility of this battle body is truly unprecedented. It's hard to imagine a human cultivating their physical body to this level. I'm afraid even my Teng Snake body in life was somewhat inferior. If I could seize it for myself, use it as a foundation to cultivate anew, perhaps I could advance even further."
"Now, this human junior's aura is at its weakest. Seizing this opportunity to strike will greatly increase the success rate, creating a real chance for This Venerable One's revival!"
Whoosh—
Almost in an instant, that Teng Snake remnant soul shot like lightning toward Ye Chen's Battle Sacred Body, aiming straight for the Mud Pill Palace between the brows.
And it entered the Battle Sacred Body almost without any hindrance, coiling within the Mud Pill Palace. It couldn't help but let out a sound of surprise, muttering to itself, "So... easy?"
This differed from its expectations. It thought there would at least be some struggle before successfully entering.
But everything was unexpectedly easy.
"Wrong. It's not that easy."
At the same time, the human-shaped lightning Primordial Spirit figure opened its eyes. Identical to Ye Chen, its entire body was wreathed in blazing bolts of supreme lightning, continuously surging like a Thunder God descending to the mortal world.
It coldly stared at the Teng Snake remnant soul and said, "I let you in on purpose. I knew long ago that there was another living being secretly monitoring this alternate plane. I just didn't expect it to be the remnant soul of the Primordial Times demon god Teng Snake. That truly surprised me."
