Rumble—

The entire Fallen Monarch Divine Sea surged completely, setting off who knew how many layers of colossal waves. Boundless Divine Power blasted toward the heavens, shaking Changkong itself, terrifying to the extreme.

The battle had not truly begun, yet the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea was already shrouded by the terrifying Qi Mechanism of both sides, boiling completely, on the verge of exploding one after another.

Infinite Light flickered in and out without cease. One star after another was greatly affected; some stars could not withstand the horrifying aura formed by those Great Power Level Divine Might and directly exploded into fragments, an unprecedented sight.

Boom—

Under the intense Qi Mechanism, the Nine-headed Giant Snake beneath Ye Chen’s feet could not help but erupt. Its nine serpent heads all burst forth with Tongtian beams of light, drowning this Fallen Monarch Divine Sea. It was incomparably vast and earth-shattering, incomparably mighty.

At the same time, as the most terrifying Qi Mechanisms blossomed, the two sides confronted each other, disturbing all heavens. The void was ripped wide open, and at last a Supreme great war erupted directly—at the Great Power Level, vast and boundless.

Within, one terrifying lifeform after another in the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea charged out. Each one detonated its most terrifying Qi Mechanism, slaughtering toward the myriad powerful invaders of this Fallen Monarch Divine Sea, unleashing the fiercest of battles.

Great Powers clashed; no one knew how intense it truly was, likely beyond the expectations of everyone present.

What was originally merely a battle to seize Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures had unexpectedly evolved into a chaotic melee at the Great Power Level, and there was no shortage of Great Power-level existences on both sides. Once they fought, it was shockingly fearsome, far beyond imagination.

Among them, Ye Chen was facing one of the terrifying lifeforms born and raised within the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea, a Divine Mountain that had gained spirit and transformed into an existence of Great Power level, not much weaker than the Nine-headed Giant Snake. It transformed into a colossal Stone-man ten thousand zhang tall, looking coldly at the Nine-headed Giant Snake, its voice icy: "Nine-head, I didn’t expect you to end up submitting under the Human Clan. You truly disappoint me."

"Hmph, a wise man submits to circumstances!" The Nine-headed Giant Snake did not deny it and even snorted coldly. "Besides, my lord’s cultivation is immeasurable; to submit is no shameful thing."

"Cultivation immeasurable?"

The Stone-man Great Master looked at Ye Chen standing upon the Nine-headed Giant Snake’s head. By comparison he was as insignificant as an ant. When he sensed that Ye Chen’s Qi Mechanism was merely at the Heavenly King Peak, he couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter: "Nine-head, how far has your cultivation regressed, that you’ve fallen so low that a mere Human Clan junior at Heavenly King Peak can actually defeat you?"

Ye Chen looked indifferently at the Stone-man Great Master before him and stepped forward.

Whoosh—

It was hard to react, because in that instant Ye Chen had already arrived before the Stone-man Great Master, so fast it was to the extreme. Before the other party could fully react, Ye Chen’s palm had already slapped out. Between his fingers and palm, Chaos Ancient Energy surged forth and directly evolved into an Ancient World, with one Ancient Star after another emerging, revolving, billowing with might.

The Stone-man Great Master’s expression changed at the sight. Such a method, turning a single hand into a world—let alone Heavenly Kings—even ordinary Great Powers might not have mastered such a thing.

Just who in the world was this young junior?

Rumble—

As the palm descended, the entire Great World and starry sky crashed directly onto the Stone-man Great Master’s body, giving him no time to react.

Boom, boom, boom—

Within the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea, the endless ocean of Divine Power exploded wantonly, kicking up towering waves tens of thousands of zhang high, their shockwaves spreading out for who knew how many tens of thousands of li. Numerous stars were completely shattered before they could even withstand it, an extremity of terror.

The Stone-man Great Master in particular was blasted flying bodily. Though he stood ten thousand zhang tall, in front of Ye Chen, who was not even one zhang, he appeared so vulnerable, sent hurtling away, utterly incredulous.

Moreover, the Stone-man Great Master’s body was clad in Immortal Great Power Armor, originally flowing with hazy, Immortal Dao light. Now it showed signs of disintegration, even cracks appearing, shocking all who saw it.

Too powerful!

"Hm?"

Ye Chen also revealed a faint look of surprise. A typical Great Power could scarcely withstand this blow of his, which was the true manifestation of his profound Daoism, containing the Chaos Law, incomparably extraordinary. Yet now it could only shatter the opponent’s armor without harming his body. This Stone-man Great Master was indeed somewhat powerful.

But only just so.

With a swish, Ye Chen rushed forward again and directly unleashed the Four Extremes Saint Method. They all transformed into ten-thousand-zhang-tall phantoms, their Dao Power terrifying and Infinite, accompanied by the Four Great Primordial Powers as they charged the Stone-man Great Master.

At the same time, a resplendent Golden Light Path unfurled beneath Ye Chen’s feet, shooting straight ahead as he rammed toward the Stone-man Great Master.

He further manifested the Heaven and Earth Dharma; his entire being transformed into a ten-thousand-zhang-tall figure, his whole body bathed in endless golden radiance, Chaos Ancient Energy coiling around him, like a Chaos Heavenly Emperor overlooking antiquity and the present.

The Chaos Tripod likewise expanded countless times over, grasped high by his Dharma Form, then crashed violently into the latter’s body.

Rumble—

The Stone-man Great Master had already reacted, but Ye Chen’s offensive was far too ferocious, one wave after another in an unending chain. Caught off guard, he was beaten back again and again.

His colossal Divine Body was blasted down into the raging Fallen Monarch Divine Sea, detonating layer upon layer of heaven-shaking waves, each cresting up to the Ninth Layer Heaven, sweeping up the remnant stars across the Heavenly Universe, terrifying to the extreme.

"Stone Venerable!"

Another terrifying lifeform from within the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea, upon seeing this scene, was instantly alarmed and charged over. It was a rhinoceros bearing a Qingtian giant horn, terrifying beyond measure, streaking toward Ye Chen like lightning to rescue the Stone-man Great Master.

But with a whoosh the Nine-headed Giant Snake shot out, its demon body stretching for over a thousand li, coiling forward. Its nine serpent heads wrapped around the rhino Great Power, rendering it unable to move an inch.

"Nine-head, you court death—are you betraying us?"

The Rhino Demon roared, its demon body larger than mountain ranges trembling, Blood Qi like an abyssal sea, shattering heaven and earth and making the Fallen Monarch Divine Sea itself quiver, stirring up an exceedingly terrifying fluctuation.

"Hmph, a bunch of foolish idiots!"

Yet entangled by the Nine-headed Giant Snake, it simply could not break free and could only bellow continuously.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen was contending with the Stone-man Great Master—or more accurately, it was a completely one-sided situation.

The Heaven and Earth Dharma stood like an emperor descending to the dust, his Qi Mechanism sweeping across the myriad heavens as he wielded the Chaos Tripod to strike. Within it, the Four Great Holy Spirits accompanied him. Having reached this step, Ye Chen’s comprehension of Chaos was even deeper. The so-called "one Dao understood, all Daos understood" referred precisely to Chaos.
