"How could this be?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

The powerful figures of the Forbidden Soul Hall were shocked. Although the Combat Saint King was terrifying before, he wasn’t terrifying to this extent. Once he broke through, he reached such a fearsome level? It was truly unbelievable.

What was even more unbelievable was what happened next. Ye Chen, surrounded by Chaos Ancient Energy, charged forward with a world-destroying attack, shattering the heavens and colliding directly with the leading Fifth Layer Heaven Great Power.

Boom—

No need for a thousand moves, not even a hundred or ten. With a single clash, a Fifth Layer Heaven Great Power was directly shattered, his form cracking, on the verge of being completely smashed to pieces.

In the midst of it all, Ye Chen wielded the Shaking Heaven Hand, descending from above. With just this second strike, the Fifth Layer Heaven Great Power exploded, his very Divine Soul obliterated.

Death and Dao vanishing!

Everything happened so swiftly, everything was so terrifying.

Too fast, so much so that many hadn’t even reacted before a Fifth Layer Heaven Great Power was killed by Ye Chen in such a crushing defeat, swift and thunderous, excessively fast.

The world was shocked, was this the real combat power of the Combat Saint King after ascending to the Great Power Realm? The improvement was just too much.

He had only just stepped into the Great Power Realm.

Without caring for others’ shock, Ye Chen continued to attack the other two powerful figures of the Forbidden Soul Hall. At this moment, the two powers had no desire to fight upon seeing their companion fall so easily. Their hearts were already in turmoil, how could they dare to fight and chose to flee instead.

Even Qin Jiuyou dared not stay, using the Forbidden Soul Hall’s Secret Treasure to escape without even thinking of saving his two companions.

Otherwise, it would be courting death!

It wasn’t that he feared Ye Chen, but he feared the few Ancient Monarchs. No matter how strong he was, he was no match for them. How could he dare to remain?

"Want to escape? No way!"

Ye Chen snorted coldly, summoning the Desolate Great Halberd, Emperor’s Might surged, spanning across the heavens. The Chaos Supreme Body emerged, blocking the two Forbidden Soul Hall powers while Ye Chen himself wielded the Desolate Great Halberd, charging at Qin Jiuyou.

He knew he wouldn’t be foolish enough to think he could compete with the peak realm Qin Jiuyou upon first entering the Great Power Realm, and that using the Emperor’s Weapon was the best approach.

Boom—

Holding the Desolate Great Halberd, Ye Chen struck down at Qin Jiuyou, shattering the entire sky with that one chop.

Qin Jiuyou’s expression changed slightly but he snorted, "You brat, don’t think about it!"

He brought forth Forbidden Soul Hall’s Dao Secret Treasure, which erupted with the Heavenly Might of Kings, battling against it, exploding in boundless light.

However, Ye Chen, protected by the Desolate Great Halberd, had entered the Chaos Great Power Realm, far stronger than before, refusing to retreat. In contrast, Qin Jiuyou kept retreating, unable to withstand Ye Chen’s real offensive. Nonetheless, the two engaged in an intense combat, with terrifying Qi Mechanism continuously rising and spreading across Six Harmonies and Eight Desolates.

"Fine, kid, even if this Hall dies here today, I’ll drag you down to hell with me!"

The Hall Master of Forbidden Soul Hall snorted, charging forward with a determination to perish together, knowing escape was impossible today with the presence of Ancient Monarchs. It was better to drag the Combat Saint King down along with him in death.

All along, this Combat Saint King had repeatedly foiled his grand plans, even preventing the true crossing of the Alien Five Emperors, which was the real reason. His hatred for the Combat Saint King was the deepest, and even in death, he wanted to drag this hateful bastard down with him.

Yet, Ye Chen snorted coldly, shaking the Desolate Great Halberd, countering the opponent’s attack. Emperor’s Might surged, spreading across the Ten Layers of Strongholds — the most terrifying Supreme Emperor Weapons, enough to withstand any attack and deliver the most fearsome counterstrike.

Boom—

Ye Chen battled Qin Jiuyou while the Chaos Supreme Body engaged the last two Forbidden Hall powers, fighting intensely yet swiftly.

The two were both Fifth Layer Heaven Great Powers, considered Heroic Masters among Great Power Realm. Unfortunately, no matter how powerful, they were not Ye Chen’s match, their defenses shattered swiftly within mere ten moves under Ye Chen’s unparalleled attack power, showing vulnerability.

Boom boom—

Blood sprayed skyward; within ten moves, the two Forbidden Soul Hall powers were decisively blown apart, their entire beings disintegrating, blood spraying across the sky, truly invincible.

Three of the Forbidden Soul Hall’s Fifth Layer Heaven powers were engulfed into the Chaos Tripod, refined into six energy-rich Great Power Pills. Simultaneously, the six pills were directly dissolved, releasing the most vast Dao Divine Power, which then infused into the Desolate Great Halberd, unveiling an even more terrifying Emperor’s Might, boundless and radiant, obliterating downwards from above.

Boom—

The entire Great World Heaven and Earth were completely collapsing, and Qin Jiuyou was sent flying back, blood flowing from his body, unable to truly contend.

Yet, he laughed with blood-stained laughter, his entire being burning along with the Dao Secret Treasure, charging at Ye Chen: "Even in death, I’ll drag you down to die with me!"

Boom—

Even Ye Chen felt a deadly crisis as this opponent truly embraced death, not to be underestimated.

Ye Chen quickly retreated, yet Qin Jiuyou, with a resolve for death, moved with astonishing speed. Even the few Ancient Monarchs in the distant sky found it difficult to intercept in time as Qin Jiuyou rushed forward, embracing Ye Chen tightly, even with Ye Chen’s Desolate Great Halberd slicing off part of his arm. It was hard to break free.

Boom—

Ultimately, following a terrifying explosion, Qin Jiuyou blew himself up!

How intense is the self-destruction of a peak Great Power?

Simply unimaginable—it was the peak of Great Power, nearly entering the Ancient Monarch Domain, capable of extinguishing stars with a mere wave. Naturally, an explosion of such force was incomparably dreadful, capable of wounding even an Ancient Monarch when close.

Now Ye Chen was caught in the explosion at point-blank range, difficult to escape no matter how powerful.

Everyone watched as the boundless terrifying fire waves spread, obliterating nearly millions of miles around, almost annihilating the Ten Layers of Strongholds. The entire Emperor Suppression Road shook violently, unimaginably terrifying.

If not for Ancient Monarchs intervening, constructing a barrier to withstand this self-destructive blast, even on the Emperor’s Battlefield, many might have perished.
