Chapter 921: Peacock King Seizes the Treasure
A blazing divine light group appeared, more dazzling than the sun, descending with an unparalleled great Dao pressure.
Everyone trembled in awe. This was undoubtedly an extraordinary supreme power, a supreme powerhouse of the Human Clan, far beyond the Saintly Treasure Realm. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, the Human Clan also had such a formidable figure appearing.
This also allowed the Saints of the Human Clan to breathe a sigh of relief. Otherwise, with the Beast and Demon Clans having Reincarnation-level powerhouses appearing and the Human Clan not, they would be suppressed by the two clans' strength, something they did not want to see.
The arriving supreme powerhouse of the Human Clan was shrouded entirely in a hazy and dazzling light group, making it impossible for anyone to discern their appearance, but the aura emanating from them was undoubtedly powerful, causing the heavens and earth to change color.
The Peacock King and Beast Venerable Wan Shan simultaneously looked at the approaching supreme powerhouse of the Human Clan, both with grave expressions, not daring to be careless.
Being Reincarnation-level supreme powerhouses, they were special, and were the most formidable beings the mortal world could accommodate, revered by the Saints.
It could be said that the three Reincarnation-level supreme powerhouses were the true protagonists of the world on the scene, and everyone else was just a foil. Even if the Kings of the 36 empires and Seventy-two Ancient Countries arrived, they could not snatch away even a bit of brilliance.
The Peacock King said nothing, and Beast Venerable Wan Shan also let out a cold snort, clearly not wanting to overly provoke the supreme powerhouse of the Human Clan.
Although the territory of the Human Clan was greatly reduced after the ancient battle, like a centipede that doesn't die even when cut into pieces, the strength and heritage of the Human Clan far exceeded their imagination.
The three Reincarnation-level supreme powerhouses each let out a cold snort, then all looked at the Chaos Tower behind the Fallen Peak.
Such a Chaos Treasure would make even Reincarnation-level supreme powerhouses tempted, absolutely capable of evolving into a supremely paramount Supreme Weapon.
But soon, one among them changed color.
It was the Peacock King. He saw this Chaos Tower suddenly shudder, and then his eyes instantly shot out the brightest beam of light, with disbelief and shock, muttering to himself, "Is it... the Human King Tower?"
He stared blankly at the ancient Chaos Tower, recognizing it.
Others might not know, but he did, because it was the Supreme Ancient Weapon once possessed by his old friend Qian Yue, considered to be the Immortal Ancient Weapon of a stunningly talented Human King from the Ancient Times who amazed the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, later falling into the hands of his friend Dou Zhan Saint King Qian Yue.
He also heard later that this Immortal Ancient Weapon accompanied Qian Yue in reincarnation, reincarnating into the present-day Ye Chen.
But why did it appear here?
He was perplexed and confused, showing a puzzled expression, thinking it shouldn't be like this.
He couldn't possibly fail to recognize it; the form wouldn't be wrong, and with so much Chaos Ancient Energy, there was only this one piece of Chaos Treasure in the world. The Peacock King was certain this was Qian Yue's Human King Tower.
If the Human King Tower is here, does that mean Qian Yue is also here?
The Peacock King suddenly realized this, revealing a gleam of joy, scanning this world, his divine sense surging across the sky to find Qian Yue's figure.
Yet he was disappointed, for he could sense nothing of his friend's Qi mechanism.
The tower is here, but the person is not!
Could something have happened to Qian Yue?
The Peacock King felt a twinge of concern but quickly dismissed it, for he believed Qian Yue, the Combat Saint, was invincible, how could anything happen to him?
In the distance, Ye Chen silently appeared, seeing the disappointed Peacock King, he shook his head with a hint of helplessness. Now was not the time for him to make an appearance, but the time for reunion would come.
Almost simultaneously, both Beast Venerable Wan Shan and the supreme powerhouse of the Human Clan also revealed looks of shock.
However, unlike the Peacock King's surprise, they both recalled the ancient and distant secrets within their clans, secrets related to the life and death struggle of the Ancient Emperor Realm in an endless age of battle.
It was the Taichu War, the Destruction Realm War.
These secrets could only be accessed by those with sufficiently high status. As the supreme powerhouses at the pinnacle of the mortal world, they naturally had the privilege to know.
In ancient records, there was once a great existence who wielded this thirty-three-story high Chaos Tower, quelling the calamity of the Destruction Realm and restoring peace to the Ancient Realm.
The Chaos Treasure before them resembled the Chaos Tower of that great existence from the Taichu Era in every way, even in height with thirty-three floors, flowing with endless Chaos Ancient Energy.
But why would it appear here?
Now was not the time to consider this because if it truly was the Daoist Soldier left by that great existence, it was an unparalleled Supreme Emperor Weapon. The battle of long ago quelled the terrifying disaster that could annihilate the Ancient Emperor Realm. Its worth was beyond measure, unmatched even by Divine Artifacts.
Acquiring it would even allow one to dominate the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, reigning supreme over the entire Ancient Emperor Continent, and ascend to deityhood!
The reincarnation-level powerhouses of both the Beast and Human Clans had glowing eyes, even deities who had ascended here would be tempted, there was no reason not to be.
The other Saints were naturally even more eager, their eyes burning with desire.
Boom——
Almost immediately, more than fifty Saints from the Three Clans acted, rushing to the Peak of Fallen to be the first to seize the Chaos Treasure and have it recognize them as its master.
But in an instant, heaven and earth were sealed, as Beast Venerable Wan Shan and the supreme powerhouse of the Human Clan took action, displaying Reincarnation-level divine power to lock the world, and together surged towards the Peak of Fallen.
"Courting death!" the Peacock King roared, unwilling to let others touch the weapon of his friend.
With a sweep of his hands, profound and supreme Dao traces appeared, inscribing the most profound spatial Dao traces. In an instant, the void reversed, and heaven and earth transformed.
Swish——
The two reincarnation-level supreme powerhouses who were charging forward were instantly pulled back, appearing like lightning hundreds of miles away to the rear.
A distance of a thousand miles, just like that!
Many marveled at such a means, claiming it as a ghostly and unpredictable power. Only by practicing the Void Dao to an extremely advanced level could one achieve such a feat, and even Reincarnation-level supreme powerhouses were not exempt.
The Peacock King rushed towards the Peak of Fallen at the fastest speed!
"Peacock King, how dare you!"
Behind, the two Reincarnation-level supreme powerhouses roared, rushing back at the first opportunity. In an instant, they were about to arrive, but they ultimately lagged behind the Peacock King by a fraction, who had already rushed ahead and appeared on the Fallen Peak, reaching out to grasp the Emperor Tower, just within reach!
Rumble——
But from behind came vast destructive waves, as both the Saints of the Human Clan and Beast Clan attacked together, with swathes of Principle Light striking toward the Peacock King.
Even as a Reincarnation-level supreme powerhouse, facing so many Saints' attacks, he would be shattered, avoiding the inevitable.
Led by the Azure Dragon Great Saint, many Holy-grade Demon Kings from the Demon Race side also acted to block, but evidently, compared to the numerous Saints of the Human and Beast Clans, they could only offset a portion of the attack power. Still, more than half of the attacks surged towards the Peacock King.
From afar, Ye Chen's eyes flashed with cold lightning, "Are you all courting death?"
