SACRED BODY OF THE IMMORTALS

The young talents killed by Jun Xiaoyao all had significant backgrounds.

They were all outstanding elites from various ancient star regions.

Even though the ancient royal families behind Dragon Xu Huang and others had already perished.

But the combined forces of those star regions behind the fallen talents would still be an extremely terrifying power.

After such bloody slaughter occurred in the Desolate Battlefield, even the guardian of Hangu Pass, Supreme Lord Du Tuo, couldn't keep it hidden.

He could only truthfully transmit this news back to the Desolate Celestial Realm.

Otherwise, if he concealed it, it would cause even greater waves later.

Sure enough.

After this news was transmitted back to the Desolate Celestial Realm, it undoubtedly caused tremendous shock.

Those killed by Jun Xiaoyao this time weren't just one or two, or a dozen people.

But over a thousand talented youths.

Among them were more than a hundred minor powerhouses.

The forces behind these people, if united, could even shake the entire Desolate Celestial Realm.

"How hateful! My royal son perished so easily. The Jun family's divine son's methods are far too ruthless!"

A divine dynasty ruler roared in anger, the sovereign of the Tianyao Divine Dynasty.

"The successor of my War Demon Cave has also fallen. The Jun family's divine son is too domineering."

"Indeed, the elite from my Tianfang Ancient Star Region has also perished. This grudge must be avenged!"

"Previously, the Jun family also destroyed the Sea King Ancient Star Region and killed the Void Sword Venerable. They clearly don't take any of our forces seriously."

Around the Desolate Celestial Realm, forces from many ancient star regions expressed their extreme anger.

Although the Jun Imperial Court had previously destroyed the Sea King Ancient Star Region, causing many forces to be alarmed.

But now, it wasn't just one or two forces that were dissatisfied.

It was a large group of ancient star region forces that were dissatisfied.

However, before these ancient star region forces could unite.

There was movement within the Desolate Celestial Realm.

A full dozen imperial weapons rose into the sky.

The Heaven Emperor Mirror, Earth Emperor Book, Human Emperor Brush and other three imperial weapons.

Along with the Plate Emperor Sword, Qilin Wheel, Phoenix Wing Gold Halberd, Six Paths Reincarnation Disc, Sea God Trident, and other imperial weapons.

Waves of vast imperial might swept across the Desolate Celestial Realm and pressed toward the surrounding ancient star regions.

"On the path to emperorship, life and death are not judged. Your descendants are all trash. Being killed by our clan's divine son is already an honor. You still dare to be dissatisfied?"

From the Jun family, an elder stepped forward, standing in the firmament, surrounded by chaos energy, his pressure shaking all directions.

His domineering and stern voice spread throughout the universe.

It was the Jun family's Eighth Ancestor, Jun Tianming, who possessed the cultivation of a Chaos Dao Venerable.

After the Immortal Battle ended previously, Jun Tianming had not fallen into slumber but remained at the Jun family to prevent further disturbances.

Now, with the ancient star regions stirring in unrest, Jun Tianming stepped forward.

The cultivation of a Chaos Dao Venerable was already enough to intimidate all directions.

Not to mention the dozen imperial weapons, which were simply dazzling to the eye.

Just as many forces in the Desolate Celestial Realm were shocked.

From another direction, figures appeared from the Jiang family.

"It was you who first surrounded our Jiang family's divine daughter, and were ultimately destroyed by my grandson. That was self-inflicted. Now you still dare to bark?"

A supreme ancestor of the Jiang family stepped into the firmament. It was Jun Xiaoyao's maternal grandfather, Jiang Daoxu, the Jiang family's Supreme Lord.

"Why waste words? Whoever is dissatisfied, just eliminate them..."

A bronze celestial palace emanating ancient aura appeared in the sky above the Desolate Celestial Realm.

The Jun Imperial Court's supreme elders, including Old Blind Man, appeared with indifferent expressions.

Previously destroying the Sea King Ancient Star Region hadn't satisfied them.

At once, the entire Desolate Celestial Realm trembled.

The Jun family, Jiang family, and Jun Imperial Court—three immortal forces—all spoke out simultaneously!

Combined with the pressure of more than a dozen imperial weapons, the intimidation was simply unimaginable.

It should be noted that even during the previous intense Immortal Battle, the Jiang family had not intervened.

But now, even the Jiang family couldn't sit still.

As one of the Three Great Families, the Jiang family's foundation was among the top among immortal forces, not much weaker than the Jun family.

At once, the voices from the surrounding ancient star regions died down.

Some powerful figures were even trembling.

Damn, bringing out more than a dozen imperial weapons at once!

This was simply not playing by the rules!

And with a Chaos Dao Venerable taking action, this level of powerhouse was almost impossible to find in some ancient star regions.

So, those forces from the ancient star regions backed down.

Eighth Ancestor Jun Tianming stood with his hands behind his back in the starry river and loudly shouted: "Who else?!"

His vast voice spread out, shattering many stars in the cosmos.

Not a single force responded.

Even those who had previously expressed anger, like the Tianyao Divine Dynasty sovereign and War Demon Cave powerhouses, completely fell silent.

"Hmph, a bunch of cowardly turtles." Jun Tianming coldly snorted and departed with a wave of his sleeve.

"Tsk tsk, what a pity. It would have been nice if a fight broke out." From the Jun Imperial Court's side, the Rascal Parrot shook his head, appearing very disappointed.

A disturbance that could have erupted was thus quelled.

This also made the forces of the Desolate Celestial Realm see the prestige of the Jun family even more clearly.

"To say the Jun family is the number one force in the Desolate Celestial Realm, I don't think anyone would object?" Some people discussed.

"I've heard that in the past, when the Jun family was at its peak, they seemed to want to replace the Supreme Celestial Court and take control of the Nine Heavens Celestial Realm's order."

"Replace the Supreme Celestial Court? That seems too much. The Jun family is indeed strong, but the Supreme Celestial Court is said to be related to the will of the celestial realm."

Many old-timers talked about this secret.

In other words, the Supreme Celestial Court was equivalent to an officially appointed force.

It wouldn't be so simple for the Jun family to take its place.

"But some ancient records mention that the Jun family, in a distant era, seemed to have come close to success, but in the end, they failed for some reason."

Discussing this secret ancient history, some old-timers and living fossils sighed.

If any force could be the leader of the Nine Heavens Celestial Realm.

The Jun family would definitely be the most likely one.

Of course, other powerful ancient forces, such as the Dragon King Palace, Ancient Lan Holy Church, Underworld King Lineage, and others, would not sit by and watch the Jun family dominate alone.

Since the collapse of the Supreme Celestial Court, many ancient forces have wanted to take control of the Nine Heavens Celestial Realm.

"Let's not discuss these matters yet. I've heard that on the Ultimate Ancient Path, there might be forbidden disciples left behind by the Supreme Celestial Court..."

"Tsk tsk, if the forbidden disciples of the Supreme Celestial Court meet the Jun family's divine son, that would be interesting."

"Indeed, wouldn't this also represent, in some mysterious way, the struggle for destiny between the Jun family and the Supreme Celestial Court?"

Some old-timers exchanged views.

They believed the most intense clash would not be on the Emperor's Path, but on the Ultimate Ancient Path.

The Ultimate Ancient Path would definitely be much, much more exciting than the Emperor's Path.

The waves in the Desolate Celestial Realm thus subsided.

Even Supreme Lord Du Tuo, after receiving the news, was very surprised, then shook his head with a bitter smile.

It seemed he had been worrying unnecessarily.

With the foundation of forces like the Jun family, suppressing these small disturbances was a simple matter.

Inside the Desolate Battlefield.

After all the talented youths who participated in the encirclement were killed.

The entire battlefield also regained some calm.

Jun Xiaoyao also lifted the third seal of the Celestial Prohibition.

But the remaining talented youths did not leave.

Because the competition had not completely ended.

There was still one last thing that made people extremely curious.

That was the battle between Ye Guchen and Jun Xiaoyao for the title of Emperor's Path King!
