Eternal Holy Emperor

Naturally, the Ancient God Palace had once sent people to explore this secret passage, but those who went never returned, which became a taboo.

However, the talents of Ten Thousand Domains who ventured there over the generations encountered little obstruction, the reason for which remains unknown to this day.

But they all dared to assert that with Ye Chen carrying the World Projection and the Human Emperor Tower, he would be safe and sound.

With such strength, he is nearly comparable to that Great Power Level Palace Master of the Ancient God Palace from the Ancient Era.

Yet upon hearing this, Ye Chen could only smile bitterly. How could they know that, in the Emperor Realm, penetrating the Gulan World is very difficult? Previously, he had forcibly activated the World Projection, causing severe backlash that shattered a significant portion of his internal organs. Without the Holy Body Regeneration Technique in operation, how could he appear safely before them?

How could the Gulan World possibly open for an extended period?

After forcibly opening it this time, it will be difficult to open it again for a while.

Ye Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly, but the Ancient God Palace was unaware of the meaning behind Ye Chen's smile, only sensing a kind of unfathomable mystery.

After leaving the Ancient Immortal Palace, Ye Chen first sought out the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings and conveyed a shocking message. He then requested the Ancient God Palace Master for a Heavenly King Mountain to undertake deep seclusion, during which he did not even visit the Martial Arts Divine Stone, causing much speculation.

During this time, the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings successively and gradually left the domains of the Ancient God Palace and returned to the Nine Great Empires.

Regarding the sudden gathering of the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings at the Ancient God City and then at the Ancient God Palace, there was much speculation in the world.

Some even speculated that the Nine Great Ancient Emperor Dynasties were making a move, joining forces to resist the Ancient God Palace, launching a bloody war to seize the hegemony over the Ancient God Continent.

This speculation caused widespread panic, as such an event would plunge the Ancient God Continent into a terrible disaster, a scenario no one wished to see.

However, these terrifying speculations quickly collapsed without attack, as the world's inhabitants saw the Ancient God Palace's experts escorting the Nine Heavenly Kings back to the outside world safely.

Nonetheless, the more this happened, the more curious people became about what occurred within the Ancient God Palace during the time the Nine Heavenly Kings were there.

No one would believe that the Nine Heavenly Kings would visit the Ancient God Palace for no reason.

Naturally, the Nine Heavenly Kings had no obligation to explain the world's doubts.

Soon after, the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings almost simultaneously issued Dharma Decrees, ordering all Saint Realm Lord Level experts from each empire, wherever they might be, to return to the Imperial City within three months without delay.

Additionally, every young member of the Royal Family with outstanding qualifications was required to assemble in the imperial palace without slack.

The announcement of these two consecutive decrees led some keen individuals to sense an unusual flavor, feeling highly perplexed.

What could have happened for the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings to issue the same decrees simultaneously?

The world was abuzz with rumors, with countless speculations.

Three months later, Ye Chen officially emerged from seclusion and immediately announced shocking news.

He planned to cross the Chaos Sea and head to the Ancient Emperor Continent in half a month.

This matter instantly stirred great waves in the Ancient God Palace, like a stone causing ripples in a thousand-layer wave!

Although many had anticipated that the Combat Saint King would eventually head to the Ancient Emperor Continent, they did not expect Ye Chen to leave so soon.

Soon after the news spread, it received responses from some, like the Sun God and other Immortal True Kings, echoing Ye Chen's call.

Simultaneously, the Ancient God Palace Master also sent word that the Ancient God Palace would send strong experts to accompany the Combat Saint King in crossing the Chaos Sea to explore the mysterious Ancient Emperor Continent.

Evidently, the Ancient God Palace, which held a long-standing curiosity about the Ancient Emperor Continent, could no longer contain its curiosity and requested to go.

In response, Ye Chen did not refuse any, even letting this matter spread outside the Ancient God Palace, creating a huge sensation on the Ancient God Continent, drawing widespread attention.

The fact that the Combat Saint King was not harmed within the Ancient God Palace was no longer the focus, having been overshadowed.

Clearly, throughout history, the Ancient Emperor Continent, shrouded in legend with its mysteries and myths, had long stirred aspirations among countless experts on the Ancient God Continent, inciting their passionate hearts to follow the Combat Saint King to the Ancient Emperor Continent.

Among them were many reclusive Old Immortals nearing their Heavenly Human limit, close to their deathbed, yet unwilling to face it. Knowing the Ancient Emperor Continent held legends of Immortal Pills, they wished to find these immortal medicines to live another life.

As for these Old Immortals, Ye Chen naturally welcomed them all, though they were aged and their Blood Qi had depleted, each one was terrifyingly powerful, providing an indispensable formidable force.

Regarding others who responded, Ye Chen did not agree to all, setting a very high requirement that only those with strength at the Holy Realm Lord Level qualified to follow, rejecting all those below the Lord Level.

Such high demands naturally caused a commotion and dissatisfaction from all sides, and many opposed it.

But Ye Chen ignored the people's opposition, maintaining an aloof stance and continuing his cultivation, absorbing the Divine Radiance of the Sun and Moon, and also displaying various Divine Skills, challenging other Martial Arts Imprints at the Heavenly King Level.

Time flew, and soon half a month had passed.

Half a month later, Ye Chen finally left the Ancient God Palace, appearing above the Ancient God City in the outside world.

Meanwhile, the formidable beings who responded to the call of the Combat Saint King also gathered from all around.

The heavens and the earth filled with astonishing streaks of light, those were the experts from all directions converging above the Ancient God City.

Now, the vast central Ancient God City was full of strong warriors, with countless experts present.

One could sense the towering Blood Qi aura hidden in the city, like a dragon lurking in the abyss, waiting for the moment to strike.

The Space Gates in the city continuously opened, revealing one ancient and massive Divine Ship after another, all nine Great Empire Divine Ships, carrying the true top experts, appearing with overwhelming momentum, their Blood Qi soaring into the sky like a dragon's breath.

Rumble, rumble, rumble——

In a short time, the whole Ancient God City was filled with towering pillars of Blood Qi, with numerous experts from the Ancient God Continent, never before had there been so many top experts, enough to shock the great world.

The vast Blood Qi engulfed the entire Ancient God City, dyeing the whole world red, creating an atmosphere of suffocating oppression.
