Chapter 793: Must Be Nipped in the Bud
The world-shocking battle erupted.
The Combat Saint King single-handedly challenged the Three Great Imperial Dynasties. This battle, no matter how it turns out, will surely shake the ancient and modern world, for never before has one dared face these dominant-level forces alone, especially someone from the younger generation, no matter how formidable.
Ye Chen had long since charged in, slaughtering in all directions, with Combat Saint Blood boiling all over, sounding through the heavens, shattering the skies, as if thunder was booming, and the heavens seemed to tremble.
The strong men of the Three Great Imperial Dynasties were no longer holding back, and even more powerful beings emerged from the Ancient Hua Imperial City, with numerous killing arrays about to fly out, also old monsters who secluded themselves were preparing to come forth, enclosing the entire Imperial City.
Facing so many powerful adversaries, so many killing arrays, even Ye Chen, no matter how powerful, had to be eradicated.
The reincarnation-level killing array that had eradicated Ye Chen's Dao Body flew out, directly enveloping the sky.
Endless rays of slaughter appeared, intertwining majestically, extinguishing all vitality.
If truly enveloped, even Ye Chen, if not undying, would shed a layer of skin.
"Kill him, force him into the killing array, completely obliterate all vitality!"
The Ancient Hua Emperor roared, with blood-red eyes, pressing forward with the powerful forces of the two dynasties, intending to force Ye Chen entirely into the killing array, absolutely eradicating all life.
Countless divine skills struck forward, blasting apart the heavens and earth.
If this were not the palace of the Ancient Hua Empire, having been fortified with countless arrays accumulated through the ages, with generations of strongmen continuously empowering it, the whole place would have collapsed long ago.
Every corner of the palace was shining, revealing the foundation of the Eternal Imperial Dynasty gradually, with one Saint after another emerging, commanding terrifying magic arrays, striking forward, entrapping the Combat Saint King, becoming a beast in a grand trap, unable to leave.
The reincarnation-level killing array was descending slowly, with Ye Chen standing amidst it, surrounded by terrifying divine ability attacks, overwhelmed regardless of possessing traversing secret technique or Heavenly Eagle movement technique, all covered, with no direction avoiding severe assault, this was all unavoidable.
Even the invincible Combat Saint Body could not withstand such assaults, golden blood flowing brightly, constantly coughing, shimmering brilliantly.
His entire being almost exploded, unable to deal simultaneously with so many strongmen, with Saints, Ancient Saints, Heroic Masters, Saint Masters, and even two Old Immortals at Saintly Treasure Peak showed up, arrays bombarding like rain.
Were it not for the Holy Body Regeneration Technique constantly operating, he would have exploded into pieces long ago, utterly a bird in a cage.
"Master."
In the distant sky, Gray Dragon was watching, for Ye Chen hadn't allowed Gray Dragon inside, trapped in that void, immovable, helplessly witnessing Ye Chen fall into mortal danger.
The joint assault on the Combat Saint King by the Three Great Imperial Dynasties had affected the central region of the Ancient God Continent, attracting countless strongmen to witness.
Hadn't the Ancient Divine Palace said they wished to reconcile with these forces? Why then did the Three Great Imperial Dynasties suddenly strike, particularly the mightiest Combat Saint King?
It was baffling, yet this didn't hinder the people from watching the spectacle, especially in observing the demise of the Combat Saint King.
On the Ancient God Continent, no one believed Ye Chen could escape this catastrophe, simply impossible, unless he were a Heavenly King.
Other True Kings' figures appeared, watching from afar, merely observing, neither helping nor gloating.
"What is the Combat Saint King intending, no reason to seek death."
Even all the True Kings were somewhat bewildered; they never thought the Combat Saint King to be one who would seek death.
Such a suicidal act must undoubtedly have an unbeknownst purpose.
"Combat Saint King, today surely is your end!"
The three Saint Masters approached jointly, sealing all directions, further entering, wielding Daoist Soldiers attacking.
In the past, even if the three acted together, they were cautious, but today was different, with many Saints assisting, and the Infinite Array emerging, dispersing the Combat Saint King's focus, this was the prime opportunity.
Especially with the reincarnation-level killing array hovering overhead, even if the Combat Saint King entered, it was inevitable death.
"To kill me, you have certainly paid a hefty price."
In the palace, though Ye Chen was trapped, his expression remained calm and natural, neither startled nor fearful, serenely facing all, causing enemies eager to kill him to simultaneously admire him.
After all, faced with such a certain death scenario, they could not display such equanimity.
Undefeated among peers worldwide, this wasn't without reason, just this mindset was staggering.
"Combat Saint King, you are powerful, but precisely because of this, we cannot allow you to escape. Your growth far exceeds our expectations, if possible, we'd rather all die, than let you be sealed here forever, never to leave."
Strongmen from the Changhua Empire and Liuxia Empire appeared, expressing such sentiments because such figures have cultivated merely under a century, yet reached the Ancient Saint Peak, solely on combat strength even surpassing Saint Master.
Such a monstrous being is tolerable not as an enemy, but as an adversary, instilling terror in all, should he fully grow, becoming undeniably the most formidable foe, bar none.
The best method is to early snuff him out in the cradle of growth.
Unfortunately, the people of the Three Great Imperial Dynasties weren't aware, with this mindset are entities and forces beyond just them, yet often failing, while Ye Chen consistently grows stronger.
Ultimately, five more Saint Master Level characters appeared, along with the previous three Saint Masters, making a total of eight Saint Masters, a foundation of an Eternal Imperial Dynasty cannot surpass this.
Additionally, two Absolute Peak Old Immortals appeared, albeit with qi and blood desolate, but their Dao and methods were immensely formidable, jointly attacking, all Saints also acted, directly forcing the Combat Saint King into the reincarnation-level killing array.
Boom—
Endless golden light flashed in the killing array, as the Combat Saint King was shattered, reduced to dust by the combined power of Saints Master and reincarnation-level killing array in just moments.
"Is he dead?"
Everyone was momentarily stunned, while the strongmen of the Three Great Imperial Dynasties were overwhelmingly joyful; was the Combat Saint King finally slain?
"Holy Body Regeneration Technique!"
A calm voice echoed.
Rumble—
Endless golden light exploded, the fragmented flesh and holy bones instantly reformed, the Combat Saint King reappeared, with countless Dao Traces emerging, colliding, giving rise to chaos…
