Eternal Holy Emperor
Chapter 258 - 231: Bloodstained Supreme Demeanor

Chapter 258: Chapter 231: Bloodstained Supreme Demeanor

Prince Shi Jian was pierced through, an outcome no one had anticipated. It was a scene beyond prediction, and whether it was the Martial Gods conducting the ambush or the distant powerful observers, their hearts trembled at the sight. The Young Great Demon King truly lived up to his name, possessing a trump card that allowed him to pierce Prince Shi Jian unexpectedly.

The Order Divine Chain glittered with a bizarre bloody radiance, clanging sonorously with an eerie and demonic power flowing through it.

"This... what is this!?"

Prince Shi Jian was shocked, his lips continuously dripping with blood, while Ye Chen smirked coldly, saying, "Didn’t you want the Dao Blood? Look, this is the Order Divine Chain refined from the Dao Blood, and now it’s yours."

Prince Shi Jian’s eyes widened, never expecting to obtain the Dao Blood in this manner. He wanted to roar, but in this moment, he felt as though all the blood in his body was being drained by the Order Divine Chain, which rapidly devoured the blood in his body.

"No, don’t!"

Prince Shi Jian roared with divine power surging, struggling desperately, but it was all in vain, for the chain was condensed from the Dao Essence Blood of a being surpassing the Divine, possessing supreme and unfathomable power, rapidly devouring all his blood.

Visibly, his body rapidly withered, his flesh being absorbed, soon turning into a mere skin-and-bones figure, which made everyone shudder in disbelief.

This method was too peculiar, even a Peak Martial God could not escape.

Eventually, Prince Shi Jian completely turned into a skeleton; even his marrow essence was absorbed, tenderizing his bones, which crumbled into a cloud of dust at the slightest breeze.

Only a Primordial Spirit escaped through the top of the skull beforehand.

This was Prince Shi Jian’s Primordial Spirit, just a fist-sized orb of light, shimmering brilliantly, racing towards the head of the Imperial Guards for protection.

But Ye Chen, with the Heavenly Divine Spear, shattered Prince Shi Jian’s Primordial Spirit in an instant, completely ending the life of a Peak Martial God. This sent chills down everyone’s spine.

"No, my lord!"

The head of the Imperial Guards and other Martial Gods roared in horror, but it was futile and they could only watch as a Peak Martial God met his demise, undoubtedly causing a tremendous impact.

A Peak Martial God almost certainly could have become a Heavenly God, it was just a matter of time. Such a potential Heavenly Divine Realm Peak Martial God being a member of the royal family, his unbelievable murder would undoubtedly have a huge impact, and the royal family would certainly not let it go.

No one had expected Ye Chen to be capable of killing Prince Shi Jian. It was all too sudden.

With a clattering sound,

if the Order Divine Chain formed from Dark Gold clanged sonorously, having absorbed enough Essence Blood, it then returned to Ye Chen’s body, lying dormant.

For now, although Ye Chen, limited by his strength, could not freely control this Order Divine Chain, it undoubtedly harbored a mysterious and tremendous power.

But at this moment, an awe-inspiring Divine Light shone on Ye Chen’s body, the God King Revival Technique was in action, and his injuries were healing at a shocking speed, his bones cracking loudly.

In the blink of an eye, his injuries had healed, flawless, stunning everyone.

"Your injuries..."

Everyone was baffled.

Ye Chen said indifferently, "Was I ever truly injured? All of this was merely to trick you, to think I would be so seriously injured, how ludicrous."

Everyone was terrified; this was not a human, but a terrifying demon.

"The next turn is yours!"

The killing intent was earth-shattering.

Next, a fierce battle ensued, but the outcome was predetermined and unchangeable.

Even though the head of the Super Martial God’s Imperial Guards led the remaining powerful Martial Gods, no one could truly stop Ye Chen. Since the strongest among them, Prince Shi Jian, had been killed, many powerful figures had either been killed or exiled. Ye Chen’s invincibility had already planted seeds of fear in their minds.

Only one Super Martial God and about twenty-two or twenty-three Martial Gods remained.

Among them, eighteen Martial Gods were needed to maintain the Eighteen Star Elements Array, unable to leave, limiting their effectiveness in attack.

Despite Ye Chen having left the Fighting God Realm, he was still not an ordinary Martial God could match with his unmatched Treasure Body, engaging in close combat with the Super Martial God, wielding the Heavenly Divine Spear and possessing supreme speed that even the Super Martial God couldn’t match, he displayed numerous supreme Dao Divine Skills, striking across the sky in a supreme battle.

And he had refined several Super Martial Gods and the Blood Mist from many Martial Gods that had exploded, transforming it into Divine Power to effectively replenish himself, compensating for his weakness and becoming vigorous once again.

Even with the Eighteen Star Elements Array, it still couldn’t truly stop Ye Chen. His figure was so fast that it was extremely hard to catch a glimpse of him.

By the end, even the Eighteen Star Elements Array was destroyed. The Order Divine Chain that had taken the life of Prince Shi Jian once again showed its power, easily piercing through the light barrier formed by the array and allowing Ye Chen to break through and consecutively slay three Martial Gods, thus completely destroying and dissipating the Eighteen Star Elements Array.

That battle lasted an entire night, with Divine Light torrential, illuminating the pitch-dark land of the Southern Domain and causing terrifying fluctuations in battle, shaking the vast land within a thousand miles, alarming countless people who witnessed it.

People only saw in that battle that the name of Ye Chen, the Young Great Demon King, was truly well-deserved, truly shocking the world with his unmatched combat strength.

In that region, mountains and ravines nearly collapsed, the ground split open, and lakes were exploded and evaporated; all were devastated, leaving a mess of smoke and burnt ashes after unimaginable destruction.

After a whole night, the battle truly ended.

But it was a Bloodshed of Mass Carnage, with blood staining thousands of miles.

In that battle, all the strong ones sent by the Tianqi Empire were killed, and their blood dyed the land for hundreds of miles. The mountains and rivers were shattered for miles, the ground turned to ash, possessing the power of Martial Gods and the supreme might of the Heavenly God Dao Soldiers.

Beneath the night sky, the onlooking powerhouses only saw a tall, majestic figure standing atop the pile of bones, his body soaked in fresh blood, exuding a supreme aura tinged with both divinity and demonism. He resonated with the blood moon hanging in the sky, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble.

He stood there, with several Demon Weapons, belonging to the Heavenly God Dao Soldiers brought by the powerhouses of the Tianqi Empire, all stained with blood, plunged into the ground next to him.

Above his head appeared a Demon Bottle, which turned into a profound black hole, absorbing all the Martial Gods’ blood, transforming it into streams of red Divine Blood, replenishing his body with beams of blood light.

After the battle, not only was he not exhausted, but he became even more powerful. His aura surged skyward, with dark gold mixed with bright red Blood Qi engulfing the heavens and the earth, thunderously shaking the void, leaving an unforgettable image.

So many strong ones were slain by a youth; undoubtedly, from today onwards, the name Ye Chen was firmly established as a king among the young, even those who had underestimated him would take note now, even the Heavenly Gods would pay attention, not disregarding him due to his youth.

And the name of a king was thoroughly renowned throughout the world, impossible to ignore.

This was one of the most fearsome kings among the younger generation.

"You all, are you also here to hunt me down?"

Suddenly, the Young Great Demon King turned back to look towards the many cultivators watching from a distance, sweeping them with a bone-chilling gaze as if tangible, illuminating the area and causing everyone’s hearts to tremble with fear, too terrified to look directly.

The pressure given by the Young Great Demon King was too terrifying, deep and vast like an abyss, his Demon Power striking the sky; who could withstand it?

At the same time, they were also terrified, fearing that the Young Great Demon King truly regarded them as prey, which was the greatest horror.

"Lord Ye Chen, please don’t misunderstand, we were merely passing by and watching from a distance, with no intention of hunting you."

The powerhouses all hurriedly explained, addressing him as Lord to show the extent of their fear, afraid that the Young Great Demon King would really treat them as foes, which would be the greatest injustice.

Even Prince Shi Jian of the Peak Martial Gods had been slain; who among them could stand against Ye Chen, unless a Heavenly God arrived.

But the Tianqi Empire did not send such powerhouses because Ye Chen, despite his strength, was still considered a young junior. Sending a Peak Martial God had already put much pressure; if a Heavenly God were to act, the high and mighty Divine would probably intervene, taking matters into their own hands.

Ye Chen’s face was expressionless as he quietly watched these watching cultivators, causing them to grow cold with fear, trembling at the base, daring not to make any rash moves until quite a while later when the Young Great Demon King finally spoke, asking, "Would you be willing to convey a message to the Tianqi Empire Royal Family for me?"

"Willing, very willing!"

Hearing this, everyone sighed in relief; as long as the Young Great Demon King didn’t strike, they were willing to do anything.

Ye Chen nodded indifferently, then shifted his gaze towards the distance, towards the direction of the Tianqi Empire palace, his gaze shooting out a long beam of brilliant and tangible light, and said, "Tell them, anyone who continues to hunt me down, when I become a Divine, will certainly come knocking on their door to seek justice and return it tenfold!"

The powerhouses were stunned; was Ye Chen declaring a full-on war with the Tianqi Empire Royal Family?

But they dared not refuse and quickly agreed.

"And you, since you are here, don’t leave."

Suddenly, Ye Chen’s gaze intensified manyfold, looking towards a void in space, and spoke thus. Then the Heavenly Divine Spear shot out, transforming into a dazzling streak of Divine Light across the sky, embedding itself in that void.

With a ’puff’ —

A figure was pierced by the Heavenly Divine Spear and heavily smashed against a distant mountain, crashing halfway down, the entire figure nailed onto the mountain cliff, with fresh blood staining half of the cliff.
