Eternal Holy Emperor

The blood pearl was so dazzling, so blinding, carrying the unique Qi Mechanism of Gu Changsheng.

It was a drop of blood accidentally stained on Ye Chen's clothes during the battle, not removed, and now taken out.

Gu Changsheng was defeated!?

Even with Tianmei Xuanlao's countless years of cultivation, having reached a mental realm of calmness, at this moment, he still showed enormous shock.

The strongest generation heir of the Ancient Divine Palace in countless years, far stronger than any previous heir, entrusted with unparalleled expectations to surpass predecessors, was now defeated?

This news was truly astounding.

Tianmei Xuanlao immediately looked at Ye Chen sullenly, with a tremendous aura slowly emanating from him.

This was all the Dao Power of a Heavenly King level, extraordinarily earth-shattering, capable of tearing the heavens and suppressing Ye Chen with a cold snort like celestial thunder exploding beside his ears: "Kid, I don't care who you are, and I don't believe you have the strength to defeat Gu Changsheng; you must have used some despicable means. Perhaps your master is one of those old guys from the Nine Great Empires, otherwise, how could you have defeated Gu Changsheng."

"It doesn't matter who you are today, daring to come here, trying to obtain the identity of the heir of my Ancient Divine Palace? Ridiculous, how could the noble identity of the heir of the Ancient Divine Palace be obtained by an outsider, or a despicable person, today I'll definitely crush you."

With a rumbling sound, a great hand flipped, the Daoism of Nature and the Methods of Nature, containing the might of a Heavenly King far surpassing any Saint Lord, capable of shattering the Heavenly Dome and destroying the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, was by no means empty talk.

The Heavenly King's great hand immediately pressed toward Ye Chen and further extended to suppress other Immortal True Kings, intending to kill everyone.

Because in his eyes, these people were undoubtedly doomed.

"Elder Xuan, you mustn't!"

Li Xuan shouted, not because he was worried about the life and death of Ye Chen and the others, but because Ye Chen's entry was seen by the world, and if anything went wrong, the reputation of the Ancient Divine Palace would hit an all-time low.

This gain is not worth the loss.

But he couldn't explain clearly or stop it in time, and as he watched Tianmei Xuanlao's palm press down, the other Immortal True Kings were furious, even in the face of a Heavenly King, a mysterious light faintly flashed within them.

Once it fell, given their status, how could they not have a life-saving card?

Ye Chen raised his hand and struck out, the Power of Faith circulating between his fingers, colliding with it.

Boom——

The collision caused heaven and earth to collapse, the mighty Divine Power shook the world, alarming nearly everyone in the Ancient Divine Palace.

If not for the extraordinary Ancient Divine Palace, with Divine Light bursting from the Ancient God Mountain covering the area and each hall glowing, the Divine Power from the collision would have caused unimaginable destruction.

The void exploded, and Ye Chen stumbled back a few steps; the hurried defense was unsatisfactory, slightly at a disadvantage.

But this scene surprised Tianmei Xuanlao greatly; he never expected Ye Chen to withstand it.

"Old man, do you truly wish to start a war?" Ye Chen's expression darkened, although the opponent was a Heavenly King, he was not intimidated, the Power of Faith in his brow poured down like an abyssal sea, enveloping him, granting him a power no weaker than a Heavenly King.

This was his confidence; if war were inevitable, he would see it through.

"It's the Power of Faith, and so much of it, no wonder."

Tianmei Xuanlao's pupils slightly contracted, "Truly bold of you, those old fellows from the Empires must have guts, willing to lend such powerful Power of Faith, are they really going to oppose my Ancient Divine Palace, wanting to be erased from the map of the Ancient God Continent?"

At this stage, he still believed Ye Chen was a disciple of a Heavenly King Ancestor from an Empire, at all costs, even borrowing the ancient Empires' power of faith.

Li Xuan urgently transmitted, "Elder Xuan, you've misunderstood, he's not from the Nine Great Empires, and those behind him are young talents from the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms."

"Heavenly and Myriads of Realms!?"

Tianmei Xuanlao was momentarily stunned, then immediately realized, looking at Ye Chen and the others with surprise, given his status, how could he not know about the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.

Instantly, his expression changed repeatedly, looking rather grim.

No wonder this young man was so powerful; he knew how strong these young talents from the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms were, having surpassed the talents of the Ancient God Continent for generations, leaving behind many astonishing feats in the Ancient God Continent and even the Ancient Emperor Realm, some of which are still told today.

When it comes to the talents of Ten Thousand Realms, who wouldn't be startled?

He didn't expect these young talents before him were the talents of Ten Thousand Realms, nor did he expect that this time Gu Changsheng would stumble against them.

Yet, wanting to simply let Ye Chen and the others go, he still felt a bit unwilling.

At this moment, Li Xuan briefly recounted what happened outside before Ye Chen entered the Ancient Divine Palace, persuading Tianmei Xuanlao not to act recklessly and harm Ye Chen and the others.

Tianmei Xuanlao inhaled sharply, not expecting that Ye Chen was so ruthless, stirring public emotions, nor that the Heavenly Kings of the Nine Great Empires indirectly expressed their support for him.

Now taking him would indeed be troublesome.

Ye Chen sneered, the light in his brow dazzling, there a lake of Power of Faith shimmered, vast and boundless like an ocean, making Tianmei Xuanlao somewhat apprehensive.

Then he said to Li Xuan, "Fellow Daoist Li Xuan, please continue to lead the way to meet the Palace Master and the Supreme Elders."

Li Xuan sighed inwardly, seeing that although Tianmei Xuanlao's expression was unpleasant, he did not continue to obstruct, leading Ye Chen up the mountain.

The Ancient God Mountain was extraordinary, with an invisible Dao pressure pouring down, unlike the trials like a Heavenly Ladder before, it simply did not allow people to fly, except for a few Supreme Elders of the Heavenly King realm, others had to climb step by step to show respect.

The Ancient God Mountain was insurmountable, Li Xuan led Ye Chen and the others up steadily, not very fast, and even after a whole day, the group only reached halfway up.

Yet Ye Chen and the other True Kings were unhurried, as the Heavenly King level Dao pressure pouring from above was beneficial to them, providing a glimpse of the mystery of the Heavenly King realm.

Looking down from halfway up the mountain, one could see much of the Ancient Divine Palace, with clustered halls and pavilions, a gray sky, and an unimaginable abundance of Spiritual Energy, far beyond imagination, even surpassing the Supreme Sacred Land.

Finally, after two days, under Li Xuan's guidance, Ye Chen and the others finally arrived at the mountaintop, looking up at the gray sky, a grand and solemn Ancient Hall stood there prominently, with three large characters on the plaque—

Ancient Immortal Palace!
