Chapter 481: Chapter 432: Dragon Sturgeon, I, Ye Chen, Want It

Ye Chen was always holding back his strength. Although he was powerful enough, revealing himself as the Immortal True King could easily lead to a joint attack from the other kings, just like the two mysterious kings before him, and he would find it difficult to contend alone against so many formidable enemies.

Especially under the weight of the gravitational shift, and with the kings using Forbidden Secret Treasures, he was even less able to leap forward and seize the Dragon Sturgeon.

He could only continue climbing toward the Dragon Sturgeon while quietly mobilizing the Divine Power within his body, gradually strengthening himself and preparing to find an opportunity to strike fast once he was close enough.

The chaotic battle among kings spared no one, Ye Chen included. A king charged directly at him, covering the skies with the Dao Principle Divine Traces and assaulting with terrifying King’s Divine Powers that made hearts tremble.

But Ye Chen just snorted coldly, activated his Divine Arts, unleashed the Heavenly Dragon Seal, and with a secret technique protecting him, he surged forward to collide.

Concurrent explosions of infinite Divine Radiance burst forth relentlessly. The terrifying force shook the ancient Pyramid Altar, causing a large crack to spread, starting to tear apart.

The two forces crossed each other, neither able to truly overcome the other with just a single strike because in the next moment, they both had to face the chaotic onslaught of other kings.

Indeed, another king attacked – a ruler from the Nine Netherworld Sacred Land enveloped in black mist who transformed into the Nine Netherworld Death God, swinging the Death Scythe and bringing death.

Ye Chen gathered his Divine Power, summoning an even greater force. His left hand waved, unleashing an endless surge of white light, manifesting a fearsome Divine Tiger that roared and clashed with the enemy.

After a thunderous boom, the king was blown away, his face filled with disbelief, as in that clash, he was actually no match for Ye Chen.

Being kings themselves, the gap between them shouldn’t have been so vast.

Meanwhile, Zhao Wudao attacked again. After using the Forbidden Secret Treasure, his entire being had more than doubled in strength, his aura violently swelling, with Inferior Divine Power boiling over. He swept the Divine Mirror, casting blazing columns of Divine Light, fully suppressing Ye Chen.

His Realm of Daolessness had also grown much stronger, expanding considerably, immediately taking effect on Ye Chen. It prevented him from using his own Forbidden Secret Treasures, maximally weakening him.

"In this situation, how can you still stand against me?"

"Do you think that you can truly trap me like this?"

Ye Chen retorted. Although the Realm of Daolessness enveloped him, causing all Dao in the area to disperse, he shuddered all over, his muscles radiating light, and the innermost Dao Divine Rules erupted within him. Threads of Divine Principle solidified into Order Divine Chains, striking upwards and bursting through the Realm of Daolessness to connect with the Dao of the outside world.

"How is this possible?"

Zhao Wudao paled. After leveraging the Forbidden Treasure, his Realm of Daolessness was terrifying enough to temporarily strip even a Super Divinity of their Dao Power, forcing them to rely solely on physical strength.

Though Ye Chen’s physical body was indeed formidable, Zhao Wudao was confident he could suppress him at that moment.

But now, Ye Chen had shattered the Realm of Daolessness, forcing Zhao Wudao’s expression to change drastically, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

"Even more impossible things have happened."

Ye Chen surged forward, employing the Dao Treasure Bottle Seal, which transformed into a ring of profound darkness that devoured the beam projected by the Divine Mirror, then reverted to the Divine Bottle. Its crystal-clear body overflowed with Dao Traces as a terrifying beam burst forth, treating the opponent with their own tactic.

Zhao Wudao’s color changed, and he quickly downgraded, but the Divine Mirror was shattered. It wasn’t a true Daoist Soldiers and Magical Instruments but merely an evolved form.

Ye Chen then took the initiative to attack, employing the Mountain Embrace Seal. A mountain loomed across the sky and struck Zhao Wudao, blasting him away completely.

Immediately, Ye Chen rushed forward, a flying kick nearly cleaving him in two, blood scattered all around. He kicked him off the high place of the Pyramid Altar, causing many kings’ hearts to tremble.

This Ye Chen proved stronger than the average king.

Immediately, Ye Chen paid no further attention, for he had almost reached the summit of the Pyramid Altar, fighting multiple kings along the ascent.

The closer they got to the bronze ancient coffin, the more immense the pressure they endured, ceaselessly conveyed from the nine-yard coffin. Even the Divine Power in the kings’ bodies was greatly diminished, no longer earth-shattering, yet still tremendously potent.

Soon, the kings truly neared, now less than thirty feet away, but the gravity here was terrifying to the extreme. The Divine Power within them was so suppressed it could hardly manifest, and even with the help of Forbidden Secret Treasures, they were merely somewhat stronger.

Moreover, the use of Forbidden Secret Treasures was limited in duration and frequency, or else why would they be called forbidden.

At this point, the Divine Power amplification from the Forbidden Secret Treasures began to diminish, even disappearing, making their every step arduous, requiring many times more Divine Power than usual to ascend.

Moreover, due to their proximity, the kings ended up in a chaotic battle, an unprecedented tumult watched by the world.

Though there were no displays of Dao Divine Rules, each king was immensely powerful. Despite the situation, they demonstrated world-shocking terrifying combat prowess, striking fiercely, each touch and gesture imbued with the terrible power of Divine Dao Principles.

Every move seemed ordinary, but was actually fraught with peril. The kings fully internalized their own Divine Rules, ready to burst forth destructively.

At this time, the kings were less than twenty-four feet from the very top of the Pyramid Altar, but this seemingly short distance felt incredibly laborious due to the terrifying gravity. As powerful as they were, they couldn’t leap miles as usual, facing enormous constraints.

In this place, even a distance of a mere feet felt difficult.

"It’s time!"

Moved, Ye Chen suddenly leapt towards the highest peak.

"Hmm, do you really think you’re an Immortal True King? To think of leaping to the highest point under such tremendous gravity is laughable."

Many kings watched coldly, ready to intervene, but the next moment, everyone was stunned. They saw Ye Chen indeed leap up seventy to eighty feet to the highest point, arriving atop the Pyramid Altar and landing on the bronze ancient coffin. He grabbed the half-yard tall Divine Spiritual Origin and even obtained the priceless Dragon Sturgeon.

Standing at the highest point of the altar, Ye Chen loomed above, his black hair billowing, his brows exuding majesty as if a Supreme being overlooking all kings.

"Dragon Sturgeon, Ye Chen claims it."

His calm voice echoed through the heavens and earth.
