Chapter 2165 - 1991: The World’s Crusade!

In the Heavenly Scenery Desert, if it were an ordinary day, Ye Chen might still stroll around a bit, feel the lingering fluctuations of that ancient King’s battlefield; it might help him in the future when he set foot into the Ancient Monarch Domain. But now he had neither room nor time for that. He simply confirmed the direction, summoned the Chaos Tripod, and prepared to break the void and depart.

At that moment, the Green Phoenix God King stopped him, smiling lightly. "Little friend, better let us handle this. Otherwise the Heavenly Scenery Desert will interfere with the teleportation— even a Great Power can easily lose their way in it."

This God King who looked extremely strange, the Heavenly Edge God King, also laughed loudly. "Exactly. Let us old God King geezers make a move. The King’s power within the Heavenly Scenery Desert won’t affect us too much, and it will be easier to get out."

Although, because of Will’s sake, the Five Great Nine Tribulations God Kings had only just walked out of the Reverse Slaughter Emperor Realm to secretly protect Ye Chen’s safety, at this moment there was clearly a desire to befriend him as well.

Because earlier they had all witnessed Ye Chen’s peerlessly overbearing side. If Will had relied on the Emperor Realm Power to drive out the Nine Great Emperor Clans and Immortal Clan God Kings, slaughter two Alien Emperor Clan God Kings, and annihilate the King’s Divine Thought Avatar, then Ye Chen had, purely by his own absolutely invincible strength, single-handedly challenged the Eight Great Imperial Sons and Daughters and the Immortal Dao Heirs, yet remained undying and undefeated, merely falling slightly into disadvantage.

Later he had even forcibly suppressed Brahma Emperor and the Mahayana Empress, displaying a peerless, matchless invincible bearing.

Though now the two Alien Emperor Clans had successively had Ancient Monarchs issue King’s Bounty Orders to hunt Ye Chen down, putting him in grave danger, this youth still possessed a radiance that could not be concealed. Once he grew up in the future, it was not at all impossible that he too would become a Supreme Emperor.

He might even seize the final "Supreme" Immortal Fate— it was highly possible.

Faced with such a Future Supreme, the Five Great Nine Tribulations God Kings were all willing to put down their status and take the initiative to befriend him.

"Alright!"

Ye Chen did not refuse, nor did he reject the attempts of these Nine Tribulations God Kings to form ties with him. After all, having more friends is always better than having more enemies.

The Green Phoenix God King took action. Divine Power surged, striking the heavens, showing the might of a Nine Tribulations God King. He tore open a Space Channel, and strands of King’s power leaked out, stabilizing the Space Channel and protecting everyone as they entered.

Swish——

Everyone traversed through, leaving the Heavenly Scenery Desert behind.

In not too long a time, the group flashed like lightning through the Endless Space Turbulence, hurrying rapidly toward the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan by following the spatial coordinates given by Guu Jiuhua.

While they were on the way, several Nine Tribulations God Kings successively contacted the powers behind them, sending messages and receiving all sorts of information. They then looked at Ye Chen in astonishment.

Seeing this, Ye Chen knew it concerned him and, more likely than not, was no good news. He said, "I would ask the several senior God Kings to inform me."

The Five Great Nine Tribulations God Kings began to speak.

Three months ago, the Brahma Dynasty and Mahayana Emperor Clan, the two Alien Emperor Clans, had successively issued a King’s Bounty Order to the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain, putting a price on Ye Chen’s head. It stirred the entire Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain into a great upheaval.

Because these were two Emperor Clans, presently the colossal hegemon Emperor Clans of the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain, also counted among the strongest Emperor Clans and Alien Clans within the Twelve Great Clans. Naturally, they possessed incomparable influence. Moreover, it was a status-supreme Ancient Monarch who personally issued the Bounty Order. Once released, it was like a stone splashing into the sea, stirring up a thousand-layered wave and causing a tremendous commotion.

The name of the Combat Saint King was, through this, completely established.

His fame shook the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain!

A descendant of the Combat Saint Lineage originating from the ruined Ancient Universe and Sealing Universe, and moreover a Chaos Young Supreme, he had successively suppressed Brahma Emperor and the Mahayana Empress. His brilliant, world-shocking battle record stirred the tides of the great era.

One must know, to contend for the "Supreme" Immortal Fate of the Ten Heavenly Emperor Palace, one must be the number one of the younger generation— and this number one must also be the number one among all the countless peerless Heavenly Prides that had appeared throughout the ages within the Chaos Sea.

Every Emperor’s son and daughter, every Immortal Dao Heir, was a Strongest Young Supreme, inheriting the most powerful Emperor Bloodline Power, reigning invincible among peers of the same generation and same realm, sweeping all before them. Basically, no one dared claim they could crush such figures.

Yet this mysterious Combat Saint King had successively and forcefully suppressed the Emperor’s son and daughter of the two Alien Emperor Clans. And according to some unverified rumors, this Combat Saint King had once alone fought the Eight Great Emperor’s sons and daughters and the Immortal Dao Heirs simultaneously, yet did not fall in battle, displaying a same-realm invincible combat power that shook the ancient and the present.

All these signs further proved how terrifying the Combat Saint King was. He had likely surpassed even the strongest Heavenly Prides on the Earthly List and was one of the powerful contenders qualified to vie for the final "Supreme" Immortal Fate.

Thus, for various reasons, in almost one night, countless people across the world turned their attention toward this Combat Saint King.

And because of the King’s Bounty Order, many hidden-world experts grew restless, wanting to emerge, slay this Combat Saint King, and obtain the bountiful rewards of the two Alien Emperor Clans.

Some young Heavenly Prides who had tremendous confidence in themselves were the same. They were peerless Heavenly Prides who rarely, if ever, had suffered defeat.

Some were Emperor’s sons and daughters or Immortal Dao Heirs who firmly believed themselves invincible. They did not fear Ye Chen for his successive suppression of Brahma Emperor and the Mahayana Empress, believing those two were simply too weak.

Others were Supreme Geniuses who had never yet encountered Emperor’s sons and daughters or Immortal Dao Heirs, those Strongest Young Supremes. Ever since their debut, they had always swept with overwhelming force, becoming famed regions at a time. They likewise believed their own cultivation strong enough, hoping to slay the Combat Saint King, take his head, and make their names resound under heaven, laying the foundation for their future attempt at seizing the "Supreme" Immortal Fate.

At the same time, shortly after the two Alien Emperor Clans issued the King’s Bounty Order, besides the Brahma Dynasty and Mahayana Emperor Clan, six other Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans— including the Sun-shooting Immortal Clan, the Hua Dynasty, and the Life Emperor Clan— also successively issued bounties to punish the Combat Saint King.

Because in the Chaos Pure Land, in order to obtain the Emperor Dao Inheritance, the Combat Saint King had used despicable methods, causing the powerhouses of the Nine Great Emperor Clans to be annihilated to the last.

This is an extremely great evil, heinous beyond redemption, unforgivable, a man whom all under heaven ought to kill.

In an instant, the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain trembled, the entire world was shocked—the Combat Saint King actually, in order to obtain the Emperor Dao inheritance, did not hesitate at any cost and slaughtered all the strong ones of the Nine Great Emperor Clans and the Immortal Clan.

This was simply a crime that could never be forgiven!

Yet the Longevity Emperor Clan, one of the Nine Great Emperor Clans, was strangely silent, not issuing any related bounty order, which was astonishing, but was also taken by the world as tacit approval.

Once the bounty orders of the Eight Great Emperor Clans and the Immortal Clan were issued, almost the entire world began to denounce Ye Chen. Innumerable forces and experts joined in, preparing to hunt him down.

And everyone related to the Combat Saint King would also be subjected to pursuit and killing.

There was even a time when countless experts and countless forces wanted to implicate and denounce the entire Human Clan along with him.

Although the Human Clan had been oppressed over these years by the Alien Race and many Strong Clans and powers, it was, after all, a great clan, and not without Emperor Clans among them.

Among them, the Angel Emperor Clan, the Supreme Saint Royal Family, the Exterminating Immortal Emperor Clan and other Emperor Clans spoke out one after another, their voices shaking the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain, warning others not to take the opportunity to attack the Human Clan and start a war, otherwise they would sacrifice Supreme Emperor Weapons in opposition.

With these words, the momentum to denounce the Human Clan immediately weakened greatly; clearly all were quite fearful of the Emperor Clans’ Supreme Ancient Weapons.

Once it reached that level, even if there were corresponding Emperor Clans to counterbalance and no lack of Supreme Emperor Weapons, once Emperor’s Weapons went to war, the consequences would be unimaginable, easily smashing down boundless lands and turning countless living beings into charcoal. Who would want to see that?

This was also why, over these years, even though the Alien Race was stronger than the Human Clan, it did not dare to be overly domineering in the open.

Once it reached that level—Emperor Clans going to war, Emperor’s Weapons campaigning—even Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans, those Overlord Strong Clans, would see quite a few of their number erased; the upheaval caused would be beyond imagination.

At the same time, several Human Emperor Clans stood out to defend the Combat Saint King, proving that the Combat Saint King was not such a despicable man; more likely it was the Eight Great Emperor Clans and the Immortal Clan who had used vile methods, thereby forcing the Combat Saint King step by step to this point.

In an instant, the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain, which had been in a state of undercurrents surging in the dark, was suddenly thrust into the open because of Ye Chen.

Numerous Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans confronted one another, making the situation extremely tense; the Ten Thousand Clan all trembled, feeling an ominous premonition of storm and tempest about to arrive.

Although that sort of great war had not truly erupted yet, no one knew when the powder keg would be ignited and everything would explode completely.

Once it did, the consequences would be unbearable to contemplate.

Having learned all this, Ye Chen’s gaze grew icy cold; then he let out a cold laugh.

These Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans had used despicable means, yet turned around to slander him—in truth, their shamelessness knew no bounds.

However, his current situation did not seem all that good either, because throughout the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain, countless people were watching like tigers, coveting his appearance.

Fortunately, within the Ten Heavenly Realm Ancient Domain, the Human Clan was unexpectedly showing great unity.

Two hours later, the group crossed an unknown number of tens of thousands of li and finally arrived at the Red Blood Lake.

At the very first moment of returning to Red Blood Lake, Guu Jiuhua and Guu Qingyang’s expressions changed; the two of them charged straight into the Red Blood Lake.

"Go!"

Ye Chen led his nine Supreme Genius subordinates and also dove within; the Five Great Nine Tribulations God Kings slipped into the void, secretly following.

Red Blood Lake.

The dwelling place of the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan. Deep within the Red Blood Lake was a vast Dragon Palace, resplendent with gold and jade, stretching magnificently; the clansmen of the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan lived within.

Because Dragon Blood flowed within the bodies of the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan, their clansmen were few in number, fewer than a hundred.

And the true Red-scaled Demon Dragons numbered no more than the fingers of one hand; the other clansmen were of mixed blood with other races.

Only now, the once vast and magnificent Dragon Palace had collapsed by more than half, a field of ruins. Signs of fierce battles were everywhere, the stench of blood pervading these waters, difficult to disperse.

Seeing this scene, Guu Jiuhua, Guu Qingyang and the others rushed down like madmen, landing amid the ruined palaces and roaring skyward, "Who was it that destroyed the Dragon Palace of my Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan? Where are the clansmen of my clan!?"

Guu Jiuhua was shaking with fury and shock, yet also overcome with sorrow, because within the palace there were vast smears of blood, and the figures of former servants submerged within, their souls all scattered, which made his heart ache.

Could it be that the Red-scaled Demon Dragon Clan had been exterminated?
