The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 1826: 1823: Peak War

Forty-three Invincible Great Sages and Supreme Great Sages jointly stride into the heart of the Ancient Battlefield.

The crushing pressure that accompanied them made drawing breath an arduous task.

"This is outrageously unfair!"

The junior disciples of the Emperor Immortal Sect, their faces flushed with indignation, rose to defend their senior brother, Ye Xuan.

"Ancestor, you must step forward too! This is far too unjust!"

Zhu Xiaofei, gripped by anxiety, paced restlessly, daring to challenge Hong Ba and the others, a clear risk of offending the ancestors.

It was their belief that these ancestors, having descended from the Heavenly Domain, possessed the strength to confront such challengers.

The truth, however, was one known only to a few: of all the formidable figures from the Emperor Immortal Sect who had journeyed from the Heavenly Domain, only Hong Ba was truly capable of engaging in the coming battle. The other ancestors, at best, resided within the Heaven and Earth Great Sage Realm, making their participation negligible and essentially ensuring they would be overwhelmed with little impact.

A single realm difference could spell doom.

Especially within a setting like this.

After all, a prodigy like Ye Xuan is truly one of a kind.

Hong Ba’s fist tightened within his robes; a fervent desire to join Ye Xuan on the battlefield burned within him. Yet, a message had just been conveyed from Ye Xuan, explicitly forbidding any intervention.

Furthermore, Hong Ba was privy to Ye Xuan’s extraordinary heritage, a fact that nurtured his trust and led him to refrain from action.

Even so, witnessing the eruption of potent auras from so many formidable contenders, all converging on Ye Xuan, Hong Ba couldn't help but feel a surge of worry for his young charge.

He privately pondered if he himself could survive such an onslaught.

Therefore, what means would Ye Xuan employ to defend himself?

Hong Ba was deeply curious.

"It is not a significant concern,"

At that precise moment, another Qiankun Ancestor, Mo Qiankun, who had made haste from Daozhou, offered his assessment with a gentle smile.

"Senior!"

Upon the appearance of Mo Qiankun, even Hong Ba, a being whose existence spanned millennia, felt compelled to show deference.

This was due to Mo Qiankun's status as an individual of immense antiquity, a contemporary of the Heavenly Dragon Emperor himself.

When Hong Ba was merely a youth, Mo Qiankun's name already resonated across the lands.

In those bygone days, the Mo Family of the East Desolate stood as the paramount power in Daozhou.

"Ancestor, is it truly alright?"

Beside Mo Qiankun, a young woman of striking grace, adorned in verdant attire, fidgeted nervously, her fingers twisting her garment as she posed the question to Mo Qiankun.

Mo Qiankun gazed upon his most promising descendant in countless millennia and offered a tender smile: "Little Qing Lian, rest your heart. Your young master's capabilities far exceed the comprehension of anyone in this world."

These pronouncements stirred wonder in Hong Ba, yet upon deeper reflection, they resonated with undeniable logic.

Had Elder Mo Qiankun been unaware of Ye Xuan’s true identity, it was unlikely he would have extended such personal aid to the Emperor Immortal Sect.

Considering the established relationship between the Emperor Immortal Sect and the Mo Family, it would not typically warrant such comprehensive backing from the Mo Family.

The maiden in green was none other than Mo Qinglian, a servant girl Ye Xuan had playfully taken under his wing in times past.

She possessed the rare Pure Spirit Divine Body and was already on the cusp of achieving Great Success, merely half a step away.

With a modicum of additional time to mature, her ascension to the Emperor Road was an inevitability.

Naturally, this would mean she would inevitably miss the window to ascend the Emperor Road in tandem with Ye Xuan.

It wasn't solely Mo Qinglian; numerous former prodigies from the East Desolate, once deemed by its experts as potential companions for Ye Xuan on the Emperor Road, now found themselves in a similar predicament.

However, they had all been irrevocably outpaced by Ye Xuan long ago.

This did not signify a deficiency in their inherent talents, but rather highlighted Ye Xuan's utterly monstrous and unparalleled ascent.

In a mere handful of years of cultivation, he had surpassed countless prodigies across the realm, even propelling himself to the vanguard of the esteemed Mystic Yellow List.

Even those acclaimed as the Generation’s Reserve Emperors on the Mystic Yellow List had been utterly subjugated beneath Ye Xuan's might.

Amidst the discourse between Mo Qiankun and Mo Qinglian.

The atmosphere coalescing within the battlefield had ascended to an apex of suffocating intensity.

A combined force of forty-three Supreme entities unleashed their pressure in unison.

Such a convergence had not been witnessed since the Great Suppression of the Heavenly Dao.

Prior to that pivotal event, such a scenario would hardly have registered.

Yet, under the constraints imposed by the Heavenly Dao's suppression, this very situation could only be described as the most climactic and peak confrontation imaginable!

"Esteemed friend Ye Xuan, as Daoist Zhuo Rou previously conveyed, you still possess the opportunity to reconsider. Why not simply present the Immortal Treasure now, thereby nullifying this entire engagement?"

"After all, a closed fist or an open strike know no distinction. Should any unforeseen incident transpire during the conflict, we shall bear no responsibility."

Old Demon Chu articulated this with feigned gentleness and a disarming smile.

Indeed, Old Demon Chu exemplified the nature of the Demon Path, his demeanor shifting with bewildering rapidity.

Ye Xuan, upon hearing these words, responded with an indifferent smile: "Then allow me to reiterate my previous statement: you no longer have any chance to reconsider."

As Ye Xuan concluded his declaration, two Overlords from the Void Divine Realm materialized silently and without announcement.

The Tree God.

Chaos Ghost Fang.

The Tree God, a beacon of glowing Divine Light, enveloped the sky and descended upon Ye Xuan, rapidly restoring his mana.

Beside it, Chaos Ghost Fang lay in wait, encircling the Tree God and observing the opportune moment.

A murky Chaos Mist spread, shrouding the vicinity in a hazy, indistinct veil.

“Why does this fellow’s Spirit of the Void God Realm not manifest from the Divine Gate?”

The unfolding spectacle left many veteran experts astonished.

This very question had preoccupied them during Ye Xuan’s prior clash with Zhuo Rou.

It was believed that without the Divine Gate's activation, the Spirit of the Void God Realm could not descend.

Yet, it appeared this rule did not apply to Ye Xuan, a fact that deeply perplexed them.

Unbeknownst to them, the figure they were intently observing was merely one of Ye Xuan’s Myriad Forms Body.

The true Immortal Treasure was not present, but resided with Ye Xuan’s original essence.

Ye Xuan’s true form had long ago merged with the power of the Dark Immortal Treasure Black Candle, forging the Dark Immortal Body. It had already reached the half-step Great Success stage, thus giving rise to the seventh Myriad Forms Body.

This entire battle, from its inception to its conclusion, had been orchestrated by one of Ye Xuan’s Myriad Forms Body.

Nevertheless, the assembled crowd did not ponder this mystery for long.

Indeed, at their elevated cultivation levels, the Spirit of the Void God Realm saw infrequent use.

For them, the assistance offered by the Spirit of the Void God Realm was merely incidental.

This might differ for cultivators walking the Supreme Great Sage path, who might explore this domain more thoroughly.

Ultimately, the path of the Invincible Great Sage is trod through one's own Dao.

While the Spirit of the Void God Realm relates to God Fusion, it ultimately represents external power.

Upon reaching the Great Sage Realm, practitioners seldom draw upon the Spirit of the Void God Realm in combat.

To them, Ye Xuan’s current action resembled the desperate thrashing of a cornered creature.

For individuals like Old Demon Chu, this development was a welcome sign.

“Tsk tsk, it seems a few people are underestimating you two,”

Ye Xuan commented softly, noting the subtle shifts in everyone's expressions.

Chaos Ghost Fang let out a snort, its thunderous voice echoing through the mortal realm: “A pack of ignorant fools.”

A slight smile touched Ye Xuan’s lips: “Very well, let us demonstrate to them today the genuine might of the Spirit of the Void God Realm.”

With his words, Ye Xuan formed an ancient Dharma Seal with both hands.

In that instant, the figures of the Tree God and Chaos Ghost Fang began to fade away.

Concurrently, an immense, terrifying power surged forth from within Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan's eyes snapped open, one of them blazing with fierce intensity.

That very eye bore the likeness of Chaos Ghost Fang’s!
