There was no room to maneuver.
The Flame Arena trapped the Overgods inside. In order to ensure that they could carry out Ye Zichen's demands, the arena's area shrank as time passed.
A total of twenty Overgods were scattered throughout the arena.
Even if they were once good friends, at this moment, they subconsciously separated from the people around them and looked at each other.
Suspicion!
Suspicion!
Every expert in the arena had strange thoughts, and they all knew that every single one of them wanted to live.
"Star Lord Ye, you're truly skilled."
At that moment, a man with long hair covering his face stepped out from a corner of the arena.
He gripped a heavy hammer in his right hand. His muscles rippled with power, and his entire body radiated explosive power.
The moment he moved, the other Overgods in the arena instinctively made way for him.
From this, it was clear that this Overgod held a fairly high position among them. Even if that weren't the case, he was still far stronger than the other Overgods.
He didn't attack anyone. Instead, he hefted his hammer and walked up to the spot closest to Ye Zichen.
"You trapped us here and forced us to kill each other for a chance to survive."
"This is my final mercy for you," said Ye Zichen expressionlessly.
"Mercy?" The hammer-wielding Overgod threw his head back and laughed, then his gaze darkened. Like a wild beast about to break out of its cage, his gaze filled with aggression. "Thank you for your mercy, but the way I see it …."
Dong!
He swung his hammer, and his godhead flashed with light.
In everyone's line of sight, they could only see a silver ray of light streaking across the cage of the battle arena. The cage that was constructed from flames was cut open.
A fierce gust of wind blew against Ye Zichen's face. He stood in front of the open cage and heard an angry roar.
"It's best to keep your fate in your own hands."
The hammer came crashing down!
Ye Zichen swung his hammer, his explosive strength rippling the air below him.
"Star Lord Ye!"
"Ye-zi!"
Everyone present paled in shock. They all stared at Ye Zichen's position, their hearts in their throats.
Emperor Hades, Su Yiyun, stepped through the air and shot towards Ye Zichen.
Yin Shang, Gou Yuzhan, and Su Liu 'er followed closely behind.
Several elemental spirits also gathered towards his position, but when the light dissipated, they saw —
"Fate should indeed be grasped in our own hands!"
Ye Zichen gently gripped the warhammer. The Overgod's eyes were filled with terror. He tried to pull the warhammer back, but to no avail.
"But at least you have to have the ability, right?"
Puff –
No one could see what had happened. All they saw was that the chest of the Lord God holding the heavy hammer had caved in. Golden blood spurted out of his mouth like golden rain.
That resplendent Godhead was also instantly covered in cracks, and it dimmed without any light.
He glanced at the crack in the arena.
The instant Ye Zichen's gaze landed on them, the Outsider Overgods, who'd wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape, instinctively retreated back into the arena.
"As I said, this is my kindness to you!"
Ye Zichen gently tossed the Overgod out of the sky. The Overgod didn't struggle at all as he plummeted straight to the ground.
All the Sovereigns who saw this couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
That was one of the strongest existences amongst them, yet he couldn't even last a single round against the Epoch Star Lord. What exactly had the Epoch Star Lord experienced in less than half a year for him to grow to this level?
Killing that Overgod was like killing a chicken to warn the monkeys.
Every Outsider Overgod felt insecure. Even before the Overgod's death, some of them had wanted to take control of their own fates and resist. Now, however, they put aside such thoughts.
In front of them, there was only one path of survival!
It was to survive in this arena!
"Let's begin. My patience is limited, and so is my time. Stop making trouble for me."
He suddenly turned around, and the arena flashed with light.
To Ye Zichen, this battle was no longer worth watching. He'd never wanted to enjoy the final struggle of these hopeless cultivators.
His goal was simple: to exhaust the God Race's strength, and to get Yale to come over.
The Universe Secret Realm was still waiting for him. The Great Sage and Yang Jian were both in dire straits. He had to deal with everything as quickly as possible, then rush to the secret realm and fight alongside them.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye.
The entire yao race watched as the God Race Overgods clashed, watched as they died one after another at the hands of their own clansmen.
In this arena, it was as if they'd seen the truest form of human nature!
Plot!
Betrayal!
They were willing to do anything to survive!
This was a battle for survival, and it vividly displayed the inferiority of humans, or rather, all living creatures. If it weren't for this moment, the God Race Overgods might not even have known they were capable of such despicable acts.
When the second-to-last godhead shattered, the Overgod's eyes lost all color, and he fell from the sky above the flaming cage.
The surviving Overgod sat paralyzed on the ground, panting heavily, but his eyes shone with dazzling light.
He'd survived!
In this desperate battle, he had survived!
This surviving Overgod wasn't the strongest among them, but he'd displayed his inferiority to the fullest.
In order to survive, he'd formed an alliance with someone else, gotten rid of his greatest threat, and then attacked his allies.
The Flame Arena dispersed!
Ye Zichen slowly approached, but the Overgod stared at him vigilantly.
"You've won. You can leave now!"
Contrary to the Overgod's expectations, Ye Zichen didn't break the Overgod's original rules and attack him. Instead, he really did disperse the arena and let the Overgod leave.
The Overgod was delighted to have survived, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bring himself to smile.
He'd only survived by stepping over the corpses of others, including his own older brother.
"Star Lord Ye, I'll be back!"
The surviving Overgod gnashed his teeth and took to the skies, but at that moment, Ye Zichen's gaze froze. Before the Overgod could fly more than a few hundred meters …
Dong!
The Overgod's godhead shattered and fell from the sky.
At the same time, Ye Zichen bit his finger and slammed it against the ground.
The barrier was completed in an instant!
At the same time, the sky above the barrier darkened, leaving only a tiny sliver of light. In that tiny sliver of light, Ye Zichen could see a black-robed Yale slowly walking toward Ye Zichen as if he were taking a flight of stairs.
A thousand meters away, the black-robed Yale laughed arrogantly.
