Chapter 313: Chapter 278: The Name of the Moon!

Boom—

The heavens and the earth erupted in chaos as a massive golden finger, resembling a sky-reaching pillar, slowly extended from above the Heavenly Dome. It was immensely large, filling the entire Cangqiong, and with a rolling thunderous roar, it was accompanied by an invincible Dao Will spreading out, causing even the void itself to shatter directly.

It was as if a Supreme God from the Nine-layered Sky had pointed out a finger unmatched and unrivaled, emitting the most terrifying Dao Will that erupted, soared to the sky, and pierced through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

"It’s this finger!"

Yang Wushuang, Wu Yunyan, and other ancient heroes widened their eyes. It was precisely this finger that had allowed Ye Chen to defeat Donghua Haoyi, the young king, three years ago. After not seeing him for three years, no one knew how much stronger Ye Chen had become, surpassing his former self. The display of this finger now seemed even more forcefully oppressive.

Under this finger lay an unstoppable path, where all the King’s Divine Principle crumbled away, unobstructed. The most terrifying invincible Dao Will burst forth, sweeping away everything, causing even the Cangyu to tremble in fear.

The five young kings who bore the brunt felt the true terror of this finger at once, as if they had witnessed in a trance an invincible Supreme Emperor standing atop the Nine-layered Sky, overlooking the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and disdainfully gazing upon the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, pointing out this frightening finger.

Even as powerful as they were, they felt a horrific throbbing in their hearts, as if their scalps were about to explode, sensing a chilling life-threatening crisis drawing near.

"This finger!"

Everyone’s expressions changed, and the five young kings’ faces shifted like never before, as this finger was too extraordinary, unprecedented.

Suddenly, they recalled three years ago in Huatian City where a newly emerged young king had been defeated by a mysterious king that reproduced an ancient scene where their ancestors were defeated with an invincible finger.

That king, who had made but a brief appearance and then completely vanished from the Void Sky Domain and all the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, had his reputation reach even the path of the Human Emperor. After all, he was a young Supreme Powerhouse who had once defeated a king.

His name was—Yue!

At this moment, the five young kings came to a realization and, looking at Ye Chen, exclaimed, "Are you that mysterious king who defeated Donghua Haoyi—Yue?"

Ye Chen did not deny it, "I am Yue!"

As he spoke, the Heavenly Cutting Finger pressed down across the Heavenly Dome, even more so bearing down on the five young kings, shattering layer after layer of the void. The dreadful finger directly bombarded the Eighth Level of the Trial Gate.

The five young kings let out a long howl, with a Divine Light Column surging from the Heavenly King Invincible top of their skulls. Each one exploded with the most potent Kingly Dao Power, reaching far and wide, and striking out their terrifying Dao Divine Skills to meet the Heavenly Cutting Finger.

Boom—

Infinite destructive Sky Light burst forth, sweeping everything in its path and annihilating time and space.

The Green Stone Heavenly Ladder seemed unable to withstand it, trembling violently, oh, cracks appeared and spread across it, threatening to shatter at any moment and plummet into the bottomless abyss below.

Although they knew this Heavenly Ladder was left by an Ancient Great Power and even the most mundane things in their hands could turn decay into miraculous because they were so supremely exalted.

At this moment, all the young non-kingly strong retreated far away, not daring to approach the place where the most terrifying light was blooming.

Finally, several muffled groans could be heard. From the huge, one hundred and twenty-eight feet Trial Gate, five silhouettes were ejected one after another. Each had a trace of blood at the corner of their mouths, clearly injured, and their figures were somewhat ragged, no longer retaining the majesty and insouciance of kings, having been hurt in this very collision.

The five young kings were all shaken out of the stone gate. Inside, Divine Radiance filled the air, and a tall, straight figure walked out slowly, adorned with a Nine-layered Divine Halo, appearing supremely divine and attracting all eyes.

Yue!

Everyone inhaled sharply, admiring the strength of this king who managed to forcefully repel the Five Great Kings, his clothes intact, so incredibly powerful.

Never before in the past had there been a young king who could repel the Five Great Kings with such composure.

"Cough—"

Suddenly, Ye Chen trembled, and his Nine-layered Divinity Halo almost collapsed, with a trail of bright red golden blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

He, too, was injured, not as invincible as the world imagined, after all, his opponents were not ordinary young prodigies but indeed the true Five Great Young Kings.

Individuals like him are rare supreme enemies and powerful contenders on the Human Emperor’s path, possessing unparalleled strength. Within their realm, they nearly reach the absolute peak in every aspect, befitting the title of king.

No one can truly be invincible, not even Ye Chen at present. He is not yet the most robust Combat Saint Body that is immortal through countless calamities, nor is he the Supreme from the Mythical Tenth Layer Heaven. His ultimate ascension is not yet complete; kingship is not his limit. There is still a road ahead that he must continue to traverse.

"So it turns out that Little Friend Yue was injured too," many sighed in relief. Otherwise, the pressure from such an individual would be too overwhelming, even for young kings to face, like confronting insurmountable mountains.

But Ye Chen’s injuries were far from as severe as people had imagined; they were merely minor internal traumas—nothing serious at all.

His blood roared resonantly within, deafening, as the God King Revival Technique worked to swiftly mend his wounds. His invincible king’s aura still stamped him as a shocking and awe-inspiring figure!

He stood at the threshold of the stone gate, his gaze sweeping over the five great young kings. Their king’s Divine Power burst forth and collided, tearing open the Void Sky, shattering the Cangqiong.

Six great young kings were confronting each other.

More accurately, one young king was standing against the other five, with immeasurable Divine Power erupting between them, stirring the hearts of all.

Just one person, yet he commanded such solemn respect from five great young kings, thrilling countless younger generations, who wondered when they could achieve such a feat.

In the end, no one could stop him. Ye Chen successfully reached the Eightfold Trial Gate and seized the heavenly legacy left by the King Ancient Gate.

At that moment, several young kings snorted coldly one after another, but they no longer acted. They acknowledged Ye Chen’s strength, understanding they could not seize the stone gate’s boon. Each left without looking back, vanishing into the distant Cangqiong, leaving only Ye Chen standing tall and unyielding.

Ye Chen’s expression remained calm throughout—he couldn’t claim to have defeated the five young kings. At best, he had caught them off guard with a Forbidden Divine Technique.

Realistically speaking, he was confident he could defeat a king, but facing two would be difficult, let alone five. He had no assurance against such might.

Only if he achieved the Combat Saint Body or ascended to the Mythical Tenth Layer Heaven, would he have enough confidence.

Behind him, young elites from the Tiandu Continent followed suit. But apart from a few Ancient Heroes, no other young elite had truly set foot into the Void Sky Domain. Upon seeing the bizarre Great World beyond the Eighth Level of Trial, they were astonished.

None had seen people from outside the Tiandu Continent, with the exception of members from Alien Races.

All of this was novel to them. Everyone beheld the mysterious and vast Great World Heaven and Earth with curious gazes.

"This is the legendary Void Sky Domain; it’s my first time seeing it," a leader couldn’t help but exclaim softly. Many from within the Void Sky Domain were astonished, wondering why these newcomers seemed to be stepping into the Void Sky Domain for the first time.

But Ye Chen warned them not to stray from the stone gate’s vicinity, for he turned his gaze towards several noble chariots, which exuded an immense terror far surpassing the several kings they had just faced.

For these were Extraordinary individuals who had entered the ranks of Supreme Powerhouses, differing from kings of their generation; they were truly exalted figures capable of looking down upon the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms. With unparalleled Cultivation, they were at least at the Saintly Treasure Realm, on par with figures like the Old Mansion Master and the Hongtian Great Saint from Tiandu Divine.

Their presence made Ye Chen even more wary than when facing the five young kings, as he could not contend with even one of them at his current state.

They remained seated in their chariots, unappearing. Feeling Ye Chen’s gaze, they cast their own, though without malice—on the contrary, they seemed amiable. One of them inquired promptly, "Little Friend Yue, truly a divinely-favored talent, remarkable indeed."

That comment was not mere flattery but a sentiment born of genuine admiration, recognizing Ye Chen’s strength and his domineering invincibility that pushed through all resistance, inspiring their praise.

For such a young generation, no one could help but envy, admitting that even in their youth, they were far inferior to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen displayed no pride or conceit, replying respectfully, "Seniors flatter me."

One of the chariots posed a question: "Such a young king as Little Friend Yue must hail from some ancient Holy Land. May I inquire which one it is?"

It wasn’t just this noble person who was curious; the others were equally perplexed, wanting to know from which venerable power the mysterious King Yue originated.

Naturally, Ye Chen wouldn’t reveal that he did not hail from an ancient Holy Land, but from the confined Tiandu Continent. Shaking his head, he apologetically said, "Seniors, I must apologize; I cannot say. My mentor once mentioned that, as I travel the Ten Thousand Domains, I should not reveal his name unless absolutely necessary. I should carve out a realm of my own, not rely on the fame of my predecessors to deter others."

The noble figures fell silent in reverence, understanding that this mysterious King Yue must be a disciple of an immensely significant figure from an era past—at the very least, a disciple of a Holy Land master, even possibly a pupil of the Heavenly King Invincible. There had to be such a relationship; otherwise, how could one cultivate an invincible king’s fighting prowess?

They did not press further, out of profound respect, leaving their names and inviting Ye Chen and his mysterious mentor to visit, assuring a most warm welcome.
