Eternal Holy Emperor
Chapter 376 - 334: Half-step Ten Layers, True King Domain!

Chapter 376: Chapter 334: Half-step Ten Layers, True King Domain!

The strong uprisers of Black Sky City were instantly slain on the spot by the Seventeenth Elder, unable to withstand even a single hit from a Semi-Saint.

The overwhelming divine power of the Semi-Saint enveloped Black Sky City, causing countless people within the city to panic. Wasn’t this place the sole sanctuary of order in Black Sky Plain, a place where chaos should not be stirred? Yet now, a peerless powerhouse had descended, his oppressive power so great that it seemed to scatter the clouds.

Ye Chen’s face slightly changed; he hadn’t anticipated that the Seventeenth Elder from Red God Valley would be so blatantly audacious, daring to barge into Black Sky City and even slaying one of its strong inhabitants. Was he truly unafraid of the Black Sky Eight Bandits?

The Seventeenth Elder disembarked from the Divine Ship and charged in alone, walking upon the void, his divine power rippling as if a Supreme God walked among mortals. He looked down upon this giant city spanning thousands of miles. His divine sense locked onto Ye Chen and Chenn Ruo. With a flick of his sleeve, a gust rose abruptly. An old, massive hand covered the vast sky; his Dharma Form appeared, reaching for the two of them.

"Even now, do you still think of escaping?"

He disregarded entirely that this place was a city of order established by the Black Sky Eight Bandits, where one should not recklessly take action without restraint.

At this moment, several powerful figures flew out from within Black Sky City. They were the Law Enforcers of Black Sky City, each of them a true powerhouse, at least at the Super Demigod stage of Seventh Layer. The one leading them was a great expert dominant within the Divinity Transformation Realm, a Commander of Law Enforcement.

Leading the other Enforcers, he charged forward, casting out a wave of divine light to obstruct their path, his eyes coldly shouting, "Cease at once, this is Black Sky City, a city of order; you cannot act recklessly here."

As enforcers, they maintained the order of Black Sky City and could not allow it to be disrupted, else severe punishment would follow.

Seizing this chance, Ye Chen, pulling Chenn Ruo, flashed away and rushed deeper into the city. They sensed that deep within Black Sky City, there were powerful and vast presences lying hidden, a true sanctuary.

The obstruction by the enforcers caused the Seventeenth Elder to frown, but soon, he swept his sleeve angrily, his divine power overwhelming, producing a terrifying surge that knocked all the enforcers away, making them cough up blood, unable to withstand his strength. He snorted coldly, "This is none of your business, this time I have only come to capture the murderer who killed our clan’s king. If you obstruct, I will not show mercy even to you enforcers."

"Half-Saint!?"

The enforcers were shaken to realize that this old man before them was a Half-Saint level supreme existence, far beyond their ability to contend with. Such Semi-Saints were exceedingly rare throughout Black Sky Plain. They couldn’t believe that a Semi-Saint had now forcefully descended into Black Sky City.

Yet, thinking of the powerful beings stationed within the city, they felt a surge of confidence. The Law Enforcement Commander wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and responded coldly, "I admit we are no match for you, but what of a Semi-Saint? Do not forget this place is Black Sky City, the city of order decided by a union of the Eight Great Bandits. No one can disturb it, not even a Semi-Saint, unless you dare face the wrath of the eight great bandits. Do you have the courage for that?"

He cited the Black Sky Eight Bandits to suppress the domineering arrogance of the Seventeenth Elder.

These were peerless beings of the world, comparable in terror to the Saints of the various Immortal Sacred Lands. He didn’t believe the Seventeenth Elder would dare to contend with the Black Sky Eight Bandits.

"My clan’s king was slain, and I have already lost the face to appear before my clan. To kill that man would be just," the Seventeenth Elder said with a grim expression, resolute.

The many powerful figures aboard the Red God Valley Divine Ship wailed in grief, "Elder, you mustn’t!"

"My mind is made," the Seventeenth Elder coldly huffed with a flick of his sleeve, pushing the Divine Ship out of the core area of Black Sky City, continuing his pursuit of Ye Chen alone.

He unleashed the most terrifying Semi-Saint divine power, enveloping the entire Black Sky City, causing many within the city to panic. There were strong presences stirred within the deepest parts of Black Sky City, gradually awakening.

These were powerful figures of Black Sky Plain, now all alerted.

However, the Seventeenth Elder merely glanced at that direction and then immediately locked onto Ye Chen and the others. He stepped forward, and in an instant, the sky and earth seemed to invert, and rivers flowed backward. His speed was astoundingly fast, crossing the vast sky.

Such divine speed was beyond reach, and all were shocked. Was this the extreme speed truly befitting a Half-Saint?

"No, the peaceful order of Black Sky City cannot tolerate any provocation, even if it’s from a Semi-Saint." The Law Enforcers of Black Sky City soared into the sky, attempting to stop the Seventeenth Elder.

"Noisy, begone!"

But with just a simple flick of his sleeve, the Seventeenth Elder unleashed infinite power that rippled through the sky, trembling it and altering the weather. All the enforcers were blown away, coughing up blood, utterly unable to resist.

If they had been on the ground, vast areas would have been razed to the ground, with countless dead and injured.

The reason was that a Semi-Saint was too powerful, capable of fracturing mountains and rivers with mere movements, far beyond what ordinary people could imagine—much more formidable.

His divine sense was immense and strong, having locked onto Ye Chen, allowing no escape. However, Chenn Ruo was too unique, his presence elusive and ethereal; even the Seventeenth Elder couldn’t completely lock onto him.

Still, his main target was Ye Chen. Capturing Chenn Ruo, who had stolen their clan’s Soul Stabilizing Pearl, was secondary. All because Ye Chen had slain that generation’s young king of their clan.

"Boy, do not think you can flee from the palm of my hand." The Seventeenth Elder coldly huffed, his old massive hand pressing down, and immediately, large swaths of the city’s buildings collapsed, sending dust flying and causing widespread death and bloodshed.

With a terrifying surge of Dao waves spreading, Ye Chen was struck, causing his whole body to tremble, almost making him cough up blood.

This was the power of a Semi-Saint, merely a residual wave was enough to nearly make Ye Chen cough out blood.

However, Ye Chen did not stop moving. On the contrary, he used this wave of energy to dash forward rapidly, dragging Chenn Ruo by the hand into the deepest parts of Black Sky City, continuously fleeing.

At the same time, he was in shock, wondering why the Seventeenth Elder had caused such a commotion, completely disrupting the order in Black Sky City, even injuring the Law Enforcers, yet no real powerhouse within Black Sky City had intervened.

Especially among the Black Sky Eight Bandits — were there not at least one or two sitting in this ancient city? Could they really just watch as the Seventeenth Elder freely caused chaos in Black Sky City, persistently disrupting the order?

"Be careful!" Chenn Ruo cried out in alarm.

Boom—

As her words fell, a figure behind them followed like lightning. The Seventeenth Elder had arrived. In that moment, he was astonishingly fast, instantly crossing the vast space, from extreme distances, appearing right behind Ye Chen and Chenn Ruo.

The overwhelming Divine Power surged wildly, causing the void around them to tremble. Countless buildings and structures began to collapse loudly.

Ye Chen was taken aback, having never expected the Seventeenth Elder to catch up so quickly, beyond his expectations.

"Kid, I told you that you wouldn’t be able to escape. Just accept your death obediently."

The Seventeenth Elder’s eyes sparkled with a chilling coldness as he raised his hand to strike, filled with towering Divine Power. The Supreme Divine Trace Rules were manifesting between his fingers, much powerful compared to the Red-scaled King, making the entire Black Sky City feel like it was about to collapse, emitting a hazy glow that enveloped and concealed everything.

Ye Chen’s complexion changed instantly, sensing an extremely terrifying lethal danger emerging. In that moment, he gritted his teeth fiercely, and threw Chenn Ruo’s delicate body behind him, transmitting a message: "Chenn Ruo, run fast! I’ll block them here, escape!"

Afterward, he let out a loud howl, his long hair exploding outwards, dancing wildly in the air, his body surging with boiling blood qi, as if his body was a furnace.

At that moment, he activated various Supreme Divine Skills, and a Divine Halo after another was added to his body, as many as nine layers in total, as if connecting to nine mysterious Great Worlds, emitting a ceaseless Immortal Radiance, concealing his body, transcendent and mysterious.

The Fighting God Seal was deployed, fully enhancing every aspect, his blood qi vigorous like fire, and the Primordial Spirit Light in the center of his eyebrows unleashed a magnificent Divine Radiance, shining a thousand times brighter like small suns.

With the Human King Seal possessed, in an instant, he transformed into the ruler of the Human Clan of Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, grasping the authority of the heavens, his might boundless, valiantly unmatched across the Nine Heavens.

The Dao Treasure Bottle Seal was used, unleashing the Light of Destruction.

With various Divine Skills fully added to his body, Ye Chen elevated his essence, qi, and spirit to an unprecedented level of absolute peak in this life. Even within the nine layers of Divine Halos, a tenth Divine Halo faintly appeared, causing his aura to surge instantly.

At that moment, he reached the absolute peak of this life, unmatched in the world, his essence, qi, and spirit boiling, reaching a strength unparalleled, transcending above monarchs, ascending to another level, touching the realm of the invincible.

Half-step Ten-layered Heaven Level!

True King Realm!

This was the realm that an Immortal True King from the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms could achieve, named True King Realm because the constraints of heaven and earth didn’t allow the perfect completion of the Tenth Layer Heaven, but surpassed the Nine Layers Peak by half a step, sensing the domain power of the Tenth Layer Heaven, that’s the True King Realm.

In the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, the basis of the Invincible Immortal True Kings was that they had reached this realm, thoroughly ascending on the Nine Layers Peak, forcibly squeezing half their body into the Tenth Layer Heaven realm, Half-step Tenth Layer.

This was also their limit, because the legendary Tenth Layer Heaven had long disappeared, unmanifested after the Mythical Era.

But they were able to squeeze half their body into this realm, showing the extraordinariness of the Immortal True King.

Now, as Ye Chen employed various Divine Skills, he too reached this state.

He wielded the most invincible Attack Sacred Technique from the Combat Saint Technique, the Shaking Heaven Hand, transforming half a technique into a complete one.

The terrifying Shaking Heaven Will erupted, sweeping everything, the heavens and earth booming, even a monarch arriving would be utterly blasted.

The Seventeenth Elder felt a sense of threat, and Ye Chen’s body was almost bursting, about to be completely shattered by the overbearing backlash of the Combat Saint Technique.

Boom—

A massive sound exploded across Black Sky City.
