The terrifying aura grew stronger and stronger. In the sky, it was as if the world was going to be torn into countless pieces. The powerful aura grew stronger and stronger. Soon, it condensed into a figure. It was an old man. His skinny body made people feel a chill down their spines.
The void was distorted, as if some sort of power was surging.
"The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan!"
Ye Xiwen narrowed his eyes. He had already recognized the person in front of him. The terrifying strength of a cultivator above the Ninth Level could almost control the entire world. All the laws and Mystical Powers had to obey his commands.
It was a kind of supreme control. Even Ye Xiwen felt suppressed in this aspect. It was not difficult to guess that the person who could suppress him in terms of laws and the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was definitely a cultivator of the Ninth Level.
Compared to a cultivator of the Ninth Level, Ye Xiwen's current comprehension of laws was still a notch lower.
Without reaching that level, his cultivation and comprehension would naturally be a notch lower. If Ye Xiwen had reached that level, he would have already reached the Ninth Level.
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan glared at Ye Xiwen fiercely. When he sensed that the Crystal Wolf Emperor that had accompanied him for many years had been killed, he felt as if all the blood in his body was going to flow in reverse. After sleeping for so many years, he had actually seen something like this.
"Damn it!"
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was furious. He wanted to tear Ye Xiwen into pieces to vent his anger.
"Boom!"
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan lashed out with his claw. In an instant, the sky and earth changed color. The wind and clouds were drawn into the claw's shadow. The claw carried a terrifying torrent as it pierced through space and arrived before Ye Xiwen in an instant.
From this attack alone, Ye Xiwen could instantly tell that the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan had a profound cultivation. He was most likely even stronger than Monarch Tian Yi.
Monarch Tian Yi had most likely just reached the Ninth Level. Therefore, there was still a gap between his strength and that of the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan.
The terrifying might that the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan unleashed made the experts from the other prefectures who had come to watch the show tremble. They felt as if their necks were being strangled.
"Ninth Level... Is this really the Ninth Level? Can an Imperial Emperor be this powerful? "
"Looks like I'm really a frog at the bottom of a well. I've underestimated the heroes of the world. I thought that even if the ninth level was strong, they wouldn't be this strong!"
Although they were prepared, the strength of the Ninth Realm still completely terrified them.
The attack was as fast as lightning and as swift as a phantom. It directly swept towards Ye Xiwen's chest.
"Bang!"
The sound of metal colliding could be heard. It was as if two extremely hard pieces of iron had collided with each other, and there were even some sparks.
Deng deng deng!
Ye Xiwen retreated repeatedly after taking the all-out attack from the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan. He felt as if his chest was overturning, and he nearly vomited blood. Compared to when he had crushed the Crystal Wolf Emperor and the Seventh Level Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan's Monarch earlier, his strength was simply incomparable.
However, Ye Xiwen was not afraid. On the contrary, his eyes shone brightly as he stared at the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan. The reason for that was because he had discovered a huge secret. The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan possessed an extremely profound comprehension. In fact, his comprehension was even above that of Monarch Tian Yi's. However, when it came to explosive strength, it was not much stronger than Monarch Tian Yi's. It was as if there was some sort of force that restrained his explosive strength at the most crucial moment.
It was as if he was injured, and was unable to unleash his full strength.
Once this thought appeared in Ye Xiwen's mind, he could no longer dispel it. The reason for that was because he discovered that if he were to think in that direction, everything would proceed smoothly. The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was clearly of a high cultivation. However, in terms of strength, he was simply unable to unleash his full battle power. If his strength was not restricted by something, there could only be one possibility — he was injured.
Furthermore, Ye Xiwen had also noticed that the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan had been awakened by the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan's Old Ancestor. In other words, the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was in a state of deep sleep. Although a Monarch's time was endless, no one would complain about having too much time to the point that they would need to sleep to pass the time.
This sort of situation was very common among the gods. After all, their lifespans were simply too long. Even the gods themselves were unable to endure it, and had no choice but to sleep to pass the time. This was also the practice of some long-lived clans.
However, that was only limited to ordinary gods. It was impossible for a Monarch to do such a thing. For someone to be unable to endure such a degree of loneliness, it would be impossible for them to reach the Monarch realm.
To a Monarch, they would want nothing more than to split themselves in half. Above the Monarchs were the legendary Heavenly Exalts. Furthermore, there were also the legendary supreme existences that had obtained good fortune. As such, how could they possibly have the time to sleep?
In that case, there could only be one possibility — he was injured. Furthermore, his injuries were so serious that he had no choice but to sleep to slow down the corrosion of his injuries. Just like Emperor Hades, who had been killed by Ye Xiwen back then.
If that was the case, it would perfectly explain why the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was unable to unleash his full strength.
"What are you laughing at?" The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was planning to continue his attack. However, when he saw the smile on Ye Xiwen's face, he couldn't help but ask.
"I'm laughing at the fact that your death is about to arrive, yet you're still unaware of it!" Ye Xiwen said with a faint smile. The cry of a phoenix sounded from his body, and a warm current flowed through his entire body. The injuries caused by the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan were completely healed.
"Death is about to arrive?" A fierce glint flashed through the eyes of the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan as he stared coldly at Ye Xiwen.
"That's right. Did you think that I couldn't tell that you're injured? You actually dared to stop me with your injured body? You're extraordinarily confident! "
Ye Xiwen faintly stated his conjecture.
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan finally revealed a different expression from before. His expression changed greatly.
"What? The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan is injured?"
At that moment, the spectating Monarchs finally reacted. None of them had fought the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan directly. Thus, they were unable to detect anything amiss. Furthermore, the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was already extremely terrifying to them.
"No wonder the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan has not appeared for such a long time!" Many people blurted out.
Thinking of this, many people realized that something was clearly amiss. There were still many things that they were unaware of.
"So there's actually such a secret!"
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan retracted his astonished expression in an instant. Then, he glared at Ye Xiwen and said, "Although it's only a crippled body, it's more than enough to take care of you. After you die, your clan will also be exterminated. Not even the fowls and dogs will be spared!"
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan had already learned what was going on from the Quasi-Emperors of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan that had awakened him. It turned out that Ye Xiwen was actually from the human race that he had never paid any attention to. However, he had never imagined that there would be such a powerful existence in the human race.
"The result should be the other way around!"
Ye Xiwen said coldly, "Since you've invaded my human race, you should prepare yourselves. Those who attack my human race will be killed no matter how far away you are!"
"Killed no matter how far away you are? What a great 'killed no matter how far away you are'. Unfortunately, you definitely won't have the chance to do so!"
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan revealed an incomparably sinister expression. His aura continued to increase inch by inch. Soon, it had reached an unimaginable level. He felt as if the source energy of the entire universe was under his control, and that no one could contend against him. No one could contend against him.
"Boom!"
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan made his move. A long saber had appeared in his hand. The long saber was pitch-black, and emitted a gloomy glow. However, at the tip of the long saber, there seemed to be a mouth that was tightly shut, as if it was brewing some sort of terrifying power. Once it was opened, it would possess the power to destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth.
Ye Xiwen only saw the long saber appear in the hand of the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan in an instant. Then, the long saber directly appeared before him. It was as if it was going to split the heaven and earth apart. The saber light transformed into a river of stars, bringing forth a brilliant radiance as it ruthlessly slashed down.
Contained within that single slash was all the comprehension of the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan's Old Ancestor. Although it was a very simple slash, it possessed an absolutely unavoidable and frightening might that sealed off the entire space.
"Puchi!"
The Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan's Old Ancestor directly sliced Ye Xiwen in two.
"So powerful, so fast. As expected of the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan!"
"That's right, it's really him. That long saber in his hand should be the Heaven Devouring Saber, right? It's said that the Heaven Devouring Saber is forged from another mouth on his body, and possesses frightening might. Once he opens his mouth, he will be able to unleash the power that he has accumulated for countless years. Simply no one can contend against him!"
A Monarch recognized the long saber in the hand of the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan, and couldn't help but gasp in astonishment. Everyone was left speechless by the stunning slash from the Old Ancestor of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan. The way they saw it, the outcome of the battle had already been decided. After being struck by that slash, it was simply impossible for Ye Xiwen to survive.
However, right at that moment, a Monarch cried out in alarm.
"What? Impossible!"
The crowd hurriedly looked over, and saw that Ye Xiwen, who should have been struck by the slash, had turned into a lump of light and disappeared.
