Chapter 861: The Greatest of All Time
"Where's the lunatic?"
This made everyone astonished. Generally speaking, once a challenger is killed, they would automatically exit the battle space and reorganize their Primordial Spirit Body in the Martial Arts Divine Stone Space.
But Ye Chen did not.
His shattered body was visibly tumbling continuously in the Blood Sea, not reassembling immediately. On the contrary, the body, smashed into pieces, scattered into this Blood Realm, shocking everyone.
Could it be that after challenging the Heavenly King-level Mark and being defeated, it results in true death? Otherwise, why wouldn't Ye Chen exit and reorganize his Primordial Spirit Body?
Many were puzzled, but the Ancient Divine Palace did not mention it; those who had challenged before seemed to be able to come back to life.
What on earth is going on?
The Sun God, Yuan Yang God King, and Ancient Demon God all showed expressions of surprise and doubt. Moreover, they couldn't believe Ye Chen would be killed like this. This Combat Saint King mastered the Undying Divine Skill and could instantly reorganize his physical body, making it difficult to kill.
Not only others were puzzled, even the Blood Robe Heavenly King was somewhat astonished, only sensing that the Blood Realm Divine Power he directly opened seemed to absorb the golden blood and Holy Bone of that young supreme, making even the color of the Blood Realm start to show a touch of pale gold.
The Blood Realm Divine Power seemed to have become stronger; this was a good progress, but for some reason, Blood Robe Heavenly King felt something was not right!
Boom—
Suddenly, the entire Blood Realm trembled, surprisingly not under the control of Blood Robe Heavenly King, reversing and surging towards Blood Robe Heavenly King, opening a massive mouth to devour the somewhat unprepared Blood Robe Heavenly King.
What is happening!?
Everyone widened their eyes, only to see the entire Blood Realm boil. Countless blood-colored mountains suddenly lost control and rushed towards Blood Robe Heavenly King, accompanied by countless thick Blood Thunders crashing, echoing on the Heavenly Dome, exploding the heavens and earth.
The Blood Sea surged sky-high, covering the sky and earth, also aiming to collide with Blood Robe Heavenly King.
Even in the Blood Sea, billions of Blood Souls soared, merging with the Blood Sea to attack Blood Robe Heavenly King.
What on earth is happening, why did the Blood Realm suddenly turn against and attack Blood Robe Heavenly King?
Everything happened so abruptly, beyond everyone's expectations.
Only those Immortal True Kings, their eyes flashing brightly, all realized—it was the Combat Saint King.
He was not killed, nor did he reorganize his body, but merged the shattered body into this Blood Realm to seize control and counterattack Blood Robe Heavenly King.
It must be said this is a mad approach, because it's so insane.
This is, after all, Blood Robe Heavenly King's Blood Realm Divine Power, his self-created small world, with absolute control. Yet now, Combat Saint King is unable to break through the Heavenly King Barrier, truly compete with him, but attacks Blood Robe Heavenly King in this manner.
Doesn't he worry about being refined into the Blood Realm, unable to escape for eternity?
No one knew, and this was a bold attempt by Ye Chen himself; he wanted to defy the heavens, merge into the Blood Realm, become its master, thereby breaking the Heavenly King Barrier and defeating Blood Robe Heavenly King with his true power.
Thousands of blood-colored Divine Mountains crumbled the sky, along with countless Blood Thunders intertwiningly resonating on the Heavenly Dome, the blood-stained sea of doom covering the day, all Blood Realm attacks aimed at Blood Robe Heavenly King.
Blood Robe Heavenly King was somewhat startled, quickly understood, shaking his head with a wry smile.
Is this using one's ways against oneself?
He couldn't help but admire Ye Chen, who actually thought of such a method, and the move itself was immensely risky.
He unfolded a layer of blood-colored defense around him, the whole body interwoven with the strongest terrifying Dao Runes, incapable of breaking his defense with any Blood Realm attack.
He stood in the void, blood light enveloping him, appearing both eerie and self-assured.
This is the true posture of a Heavenly King, who can overlook the world, fearless of anything.
"Very good, truly good, actually able to transform oneself into the world, controlling my Blood Realm. Your age, your combat power, your realm, your cultivation, your combat experience, everything indicates you're an unparalleled talent, unmatched in our Ancient God Continent throughout ages, no one compares to you, not a single one."
Blood Robe Heavenly King marveled from deep within, also with some regret, because such a person should have been a lifelong rival. He had never encountered in life, only meeting now after death, through a Battle Mark left in the Martial Arts Divine Stone Space.
Ultimately speaking, he is Blood Robe Heavenly King, yet not Blood Robe Heavenly King, merely possessing the true Blood Robe Heavenly King's memory and combat experience, gaining some vivacity, but not even considered a Residual Soul, maintained by the Martial Arts Divine Stone Space, once leaving, would entirely dissipate.
His admiration left almost all spectators amazed, such a high evaluation, unmatched throughout Ancient God Continent history.
Doesn't it imply that this lunatic Ye Chen has unparalleled potential beyond a Heavenly King?
"No, Blood Robe Heavenly King is mistaken. In this era, our Ancient Divine Palace's Changsheng Senior Brother is unparalleled, first of ancient and modern. Can this lunatic compare to my Guu Changsheng Senior Brother?"
A disciple of Ancient Divine Palace voiced, believing Blood Robe Heavenly King was unaware of Guu Changsheng, thus having such an evaluation because Blood Robe Heavenly King had never met Guu Changsheng, naturally unknowing.
He believed Guu Changsheng was stronger than Ye Chen.
Many nodded in agreement, recalling Guu Changsheng, there was no one in Ancient Divine Palace who did not find him striking and dazzling. Two years ago, he was already stronger than an average Saint Master, now after a year of cultivation, progressing decades for others, presumably even stronger.
"Is Guu Changsheng truly strong?" Suddenly, someone spoke, such a disdainful tone made many elders and disciples of Ancient Divine Palace angry, Guu Changsheng being their greatest pride, entrusted with hopes of surpassing the Heavenly King.
But upon seeing the speaker, everyone quieted down.
Because the one who spoke was none other than Sun God, a person shining brilliantly true to the name, akin to the young disciples of Ancient Divine Palace, yet defeating a Saint Lord level character's super young prodigy two years ago.
His strength was recognized by all, at least comparable to Guu Changsheng, a super talented.
"Do you honestly think this lunatic is stronger than Guu Changsheng Senior Brother?" A disciple of Ancient Divine Palace couldn't help but voice discontent, in their eyes, Guu Changsheng's innate greatness prevailed, feeling even if stronger, merely equal, not surpassing.
"But he was defeated!"
