Seeing that escape was hopeless, the Chaos Emperor's son steeled his heart and decided that a desperate fight might offer him a sliver of hope.

He took a deep breath, slowly lifted his feet off the ground, and stood in mid-air.

Then, he suddenly raised his arms and let out a deafening roar. With this roar, the supreme power within him was unleashed without reservation, surging like a torrent and wildly converging between his palms.

Just as the Chaos Emperor's son was preparing to launch a desperate attack, Yuan Zhexian simply raised one foot and stomped forward slightly.

What seemed like a casual action caused the world to change color.

With a deafening roar, an extremely terrifying quasi-emperor-level pressure descended from the sky like Mount Tai crashing down, heading straight for the Chaos Emperor's son.

This oppressive force was incredibly powerful; wherever it passed, the void shattered, as if the entire world was about to tremble.

The Chaos Emperor's son, who was gathering his strength, was abruptly interrupted. He was struck as if by a heavy blow and fell straight to the ground like a meteor.

"Bang!"

With a dull thud, the Chaos Emperor's son crashed heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

He knelt on both knees, struggling to support himself with his hands on the ground, trying to stand up again, but the terrifying pressure held him firmly in place, making it impossible for him to move an inch.

The Chaos Emperor's son raised his head, staring intently at Yuan Zhexian high in the sky with eyes full of resentment and unwillingness.

At this moment, Yuan Zhexian stood proudly in the void, looking down at the disheveled Chaos Emperor's son below, his face full of disdain and mockery.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Zhexian slowly extended his right hand, and from his palm, the yin and yang energies of black and white surged forth once again.

These yin and yang energies intertwine and interweave, forming a mysterious and powerful energy sphere, containing enough power to destroy the world.

Yuan Zhexian's face was calm and serene as he slowly pushed his long, fair hand forward as lightly as a feather.

The yin-yang energy shot forward like lightning, its target the Chaos Emperor's son, who was being suppressed by the quasi-emperor's pressure and unable to move at all.

Seeing the terrifying attack coming straight at him, the Chaos Emperor's son turned pale with fright. He roared hoarsely, "If you dare to kill me, it will surely trigger an earth-shattering war between the myriad races of ferocious beasts and the human race!"

"At that time, all living beings on earth will suffer a catastrophe, and you will be the instigator of this disaster!"

However, Yuan Zhexian was completely unfazed by the threat posed by the Chaos Emperor's son. He snorted coldly and declared loudly, "Hmph! With me here, the myriad races of ferocious beasts will only face two fates—either they will be completely exterminated by me and disappear from the world forever."

"Either I seal you away forever, so you can never rise again."

"So, you might as well just die peacefully!"

As Yuan Zhexian finished speaking, the yin and yang energy had already approached the Chaos Emperor's son.

At this moment, the Chaos Emperor's son, unable to move an inch, was filled with extreme fear. This fear of death twisted and distorted his face.

But soon, fear was replaced by resentment and unwillingness. He stared wide-eyed at Yuan Zhexian, as if he wanted to tear him apart with his gaze.

Unfortunately, it was all too late.

The yin and yang energies struck the body of the Chaos Emperor's son with lightning speed.

A loud bang was heard, and the body of the Chaos Emperor Prince instantly exploded, turning into countless tiny specks of light that scattered like meteors.

These points of light flickered in the air for a moment before gradually disappearing without a trace, as if they had never existed.

After successfully slaying the Chaos Emperor's son, Yuan Zhexian suddenly felt an incomparably powerful pulling force surging from all over the world.

This force, like a surging torrent, kept crashing against his body, trying to carry him to some unknown place.

Previously, he had been suppressing this power with his unparalleled strength and extraordinary physique.

But now it seems that the pulling force is becoming stronger and stronger, and it seems that it may break free from its restraints at any time and forcibly pull him away.

At that moment, Yuan Zhexian's figure flashed, and his hands moved swiftly, drawing a spatial rift in the air that shimmered with mysterious light.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared before Tai'a Qingcheng, Yuan Haoran, and the others like a ghost.

Yuan Zhexian's cold gaze swept over the three princes of the ferocious beast imperial clan lying in a pool of blood not far away, and he waved his sleeve without hesitation.

In an instant, three streaks of black and white yin and yang energy shot out like lightning, heading straight for the three people.

The three streams of Yin and Yang energy moved with astonishing speed, instantly striking the three members of the ferocious beast emperor clan who were powerless to fight back.

Three shrill screams rang out, and the three people's faces were filled with terror. But soon they were completely engulfed by the surging black and white yin and yang energy. Their bodies turned into nothingness in the blink of an eye, their souls scattered, and their bodies and souls vanished.

After completing this series of actions, Yuan Zhexian dared not delay in the slightest. He looked at everyone with a solemn expression and said in a fast-paced voice, "Everyone, I am about to be drawn to the ninth level of the Emperor's Road."

"That place can be described as an extremely dangerous place, not only with many powerful top experts, but also with some ancient peerless experts."

"Therefore, unless you can break through to the Quasi-Emperor realm, you must not rashly step onto the ninth floor, lest you lose your lives in vain."

"This is of utmost importance; you must remember it well!"

Before he could finish speaking, suddenly, a dazzling golden light descended from the sky, coiling around Yuan Zhexian's body like a giant dragon.

The powerful pulling force began to slowly pull him into the sky, clearly intending to take him to the legendary ninth level of the Emperor's Road.

However, at the very last moment before his departure, Yuan Zhexian still made sure to give important instructions.

He took a deep breath and said loudly, "There is one more thing I need to tell everyone. From now on, Tai'a Qingcheng will be the Empress of my ancestral court."

"During my absence, everyone in the ancestral temple should obey the Empress Dowager's every word and must not show any disobedience."

"As for the specifics, you can ask the Empress Dowager for details later."

Then, Yuan Zhexian turned around slowly with a smile on his face, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.

Finally, he smiled slightly and said softly, "See you on the ninth floor, everyone."

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light grew stronger, and the powerful golden pulling force that had been enveloping Yuan Zhexian suddenly vanished without a trace.

At the same time, Yuan Zhexian's figure finally disappeared from everyone's sight, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

They embarked on the unknown ninth level of the Imperial Road.
