Chapter 141: Chapter 128: Submit to Me

In the endless void filled with pitch darkness, this was an alternate void situated within the endless space turbulence, outside the Tiandu Continent.

This was the Space of Plane, beyond the realm of reality’s void—an area of nihility where only those who had at least reached the Heavenly Divine Realm could tear through the real void and enter the Space of Plane, significantly shortening the distance in reality and traveling to another area at a much faster speed.

At the same time, in this endless Space of Plane, there existed mysterious and unknown alternate spaces, where divine small worlds were generally located.

In the endless void, coldness and darkness prevailed, but within the darkness, countless invisible space turbulence blades moved constantly, so formidable that even Martial God strong ones could hardly withstand them; only those who had reached the Heavenly Divine Realm could truly withstand them.

At this moment, a colorful passage spanned across the whole alternate void, leading to a distant region.

The colorful passage was brilliantly dazzling, but the space turbulence that could destroy a Martial God dissipated automatically when encountering the colorful passage, and Ye Chen was quickly moving through the passage towards a vast expanse of heaven and earth in the distance.

At this moment, Ye Chen’s eyes sparkled as he peered through the colorful passage into the Space of Plane, and when his gaze reached the farthest point, he vaguely felt an extremely terrifying wave of destruction that could make even the Supreme Divine tremble.

He had wondered why the Supreme Divine of Tiandu Continent did not leave Tiandu Continent through the Space of Plane, but now it seemed that the Space of Plane was even harder to leave, with those terrifying waves not necessarily passable even for the Supreme Divine, whereas the real void held greater possibilities.

Moments later, the colorful passage reached its end, where a passage opened up, and Ye Chen rushed in, but as he did so, he suddenly looked towards the farthest point with a startled expression.

In that instant, at the farthest end of the colorful passage, there stood a towering and imposing figure as if a War God from ancient times had descended, radiating an extremely terrifying pressure, making the entire Space of Plane seem like it was about to collapse under the figure, unable to bear it.

Undoubtedly, this was a paramount existence, whose actualized gaze was now looking far off; the endless void could not block this gaze, and in a trance, it seemed a deep, surprised voice could be heard, "Just now, I felt a familiar aura on this sealed Ancient Continent, strange..."

"War King, what’s wrong?" Another powerful figure appeared, equally with a terrifying and overwhelming presence, clearly another Supreme Divine.

At this moment, two Supreme Divines gathered, looking in the direction of Tiandu Continent.

The Divine referred to as War King said, "Taisu, I felt his aura, could it be that he’s not dead?"

"Is it, Saint King?" the other Divine asked in surprise.

He was a supremely legendary and mythical figure known to everyone in the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, feared by all formidable enemies, hailed as one of the powerful contenders of the Human Emperor.

Regrettably, such a legendary figure had passed away over a decade ago, filled with regret.

War King shook his head, "I’m not sure, although many have witnessed his downfall, he was the first Supreme Genius after the Mythical Era who reached the Ten-layered Heaven Level; maybe he didn’t pass away after all..."

Aside from those formidable enemies, everyone in the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms felt a deep sigh and regret for such a legendary person.

This was a vast realm, with a blue sky and white clouds drifting above, and the land below was covered with endless ancient forests, immeasurably vast and large.

Giant trees stood within the forest, numerous stalwart trees big enough for several people to embrace, with canopies that shaded the sun and dense foliage, all exuding vibrancy and vitality.

In the forest, intermittent roars of demon beasts echoed back and forth, as if it was in the Demon Beast Forest.

At this time, the stable void above the forest experienced extreme distortion, tearing open to reveal a pitch-black hole, from which a figure leaped out and appeared within the forest.

This person was Ye Chen.

At this moment, his expression still held some astonishment; Elder Yan appeared and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Ye Chen shook his head, dismissing the thoughts in his mind, "Nothing, just a fleeting thought."

At this point, not knowing exactly where he was, Ye Chen surveyed the mysterious and unfamiliar land in front of him, murmuring, "Is this the Trial Road?"

It was rumored that the Trial Road was built within a divine small world; it seemed the rumors were true.

But what exactly the Trial Road was like, unless one personally entered, no one else could know; and places like the 108 Countries and countless other forces could only rely on the Tiandu Academy to understand the conditions of the powerful young ones from various forces.

"It seems that finding someone to thoroughly understand is the right way," Ye Chen thought, relying on slowly gathering information was ultimately too slow; it wasn’t something that could be completely understood in a moment, but by finding Trialists, one could fully understand most of the information.

Being able to persist on the Trial Road for three months without being eliminated meant they were truly remarkable individuals, and after such a long time on the Trial Road, they naturally understood various situations there more accurately.

Whoosh—

Ye Chen strode forward, heading in a certain direction.

The divine small world where the Trial Road was located was surprisingly vast. The mountain forests stretched out grandly and were much bigger than one would imagine, being dozens or even hundreds of miles in size—many times larger, in fact.

Ye Chen was quite astonished. Was this really just a simple world created by a divine being?

Elder Yan even floated out, with a slightly condensed expression he said, "This is definitely not some small world created by a so-called divine being. This scale of a world surpasses the abilities of what are called divine beings in this world. It’s a pity that the origin of this world is controlled by someone; otherwise, I might have been able to control the origin and understand it a bit."

The Supreme Old Mansion Master of the Tiandu Academy had controlled the origin of the world where the Trial Road was located and fortified it with Divine Rules. Elder Yan could not fuse his divine sense into the origin to understand this realm without alarming the other party.

"ROAR—"

As Ye Chen passed by a certain forest, a terrifying roar of a demon beast suddenly resounded, shaking the mountains around them.

A huge black shadow appeared; it was an unusual lion beast, with a lion’s giant head and golden fur, but its body was not covered in fur but donned a layer of jet-black scale armor, shiny and resilient, clearly possessing powerful defensive capabilities, quite fearful indeed.

This Scale-Armored Golden Lion was about thirty feet tall, appearing extremely burly and towering. Its scale armor bristled all over, and it had a pair of massive wings on its back. The whole lion appeared as huge as a small mountain, fluttering its giant wings and coming across the sky at a speed akin to lightning, suddenly appearing in front of Ye Chen. Its mane slightly bristled as it glared down at Ye Chen with fierce, bloodthirsty eyes, enough to send a shiver down anyone’s spine.

Clearly, Ye Chen had inadvertently trespassed into this Scale-Armored Golden Lion’s territory, which had provoked its appearance.

"An Innate Demonic Beast? Interesting, and not just any ordinary Innate Demonic Beast; it must be at least of the Fifth Rank of Innate Demonic Beasts, which is quite impressive," Ye Chen made his assessment as he watched the Innate Golden Lion.

However, this was just his evaluation. The Scale-Armored Golden Lion was indeed terrifying; it was at least above the Fifth Rank of Innate strength, and being a naturally rare breed, its scale armor was tough. It was considered a fearsome demon beast on the Trial Road, one that all young strong people would definitely choose to steer clear of; yet, Ye Chen encountered it on his very first day.

But that was it. Ye Chen was not scared at all; instead, he watched the unusual lion beast with interest and a smile in his eyes.

"ROAR—"

The Scale-Armored Golden Lion roared as it reached Ye Chen, a giant claw striking towards him with a fierce wind.

Such a strike would usually crush any ordinary Innate Strong Person into pulp.

Unfortunately, Ye Chen was no ordinary Innate Strong Person.

He stepped forward, clapping his hands. His long, fair palms actively met the lion’s huge claw—which was large enough to match a water jar—in a hard clash. With a loud clang metal-like sound that echoed around and even sparks flying, the end result was the Scale-Armored Golden Lion, as huge as a small mountain, being knocked back and tumbling twice in the air.

In the first direct confrontation, the Scale-Armored Golden Lion was completely at a disadvantage.

If someone were present, they’d surely be shocked because the Scale-Armored Golden Lion was a naturally rare breed with a powerful physical body and terrifying strength. Even an expert of the Sixth Realm of Innate might not be able to overcome this lion in a head-on clash.

But Ye Chen was also slightly surprised. Although he hadn’t used his full strength this time, after achieving Great Success with the Human Origin Body Technique, even without deploying the Golden Body, his physical strength was still tremendously great, far surpassing his earlier capabilities. This strike, carrying at least sixty to seventy thousand catties of force, only managed to push the opponent back twice, arousing some curiosity in Ye Chen.

Afterwards, he lightly tested the Scale-Armored Golden Lion’s strength a bit more, and it was indeed terrifying, far more fearsome than some of the Innate Demonic Beasts in the Demon Beast Mountain Range. As a naturally different kind, flowing with the bloodlines of a crocodile dragon and a Golden Lion, it had immense potential.

What was most remarkable was its physical strength—immensely powerful, with indestructible scale armor. When Ye Chen made his move, even without truly employing his supreme strength, a light effort was enough to suppress High-level Innate Demonic Beasts. However, when striking the Scale-Armored Golden Lion, it only produced brilliant sparks, leaving the lion’s body unharmed.

The durability of the scale armor was evident!

"Indeed quite impressive." Seeing this, Ye Chen was enthused and suddenly wanted to make this Scale-Armored Golden Lion his own mount. Also, as this Scale-Armored Golden Lion had survived on the Trial Road for so long, it must surely be an Overlord-level existence. Having it would be very convenient.

ROAR—

The Scale-Armored Golden Lion utilized its Golden Lion Roar, unleashing an intangible sonic force that ravaged the land, whipping up wild winds and attacking Ye Chen.

This kind of sonic force could attack one’s spirit, causing momentary disorientation.

But with a swoosh, Ye Chen completely vanished from his spot. His figure was so fast that even the quick sonic forces couldn’t catch up with his ultimate speed, rendering them ineffective.

The next moment, Ye Chen suddenly appeared above the Scale-Armored Golden Lion, looking down from on high. He flipped his palm and simply smacked down. There were no ripples of energy, yet such a simple slap resulted in a thunderous sound as the Scale-Armored Golden Lion was slammed from the air down to the ground, creating a massive crater and kicking up a lot of dust.

"Submit to me."

Ye Chen landed on the Scale-Armored Golden Lion, looking down imperiously from above, like an invincible ruler as he authoritatively spoke to the lion.
