"Since you refuse to kneel and kowtow to the statue of the Primordial Emperor, then I will personally break your legs and crush your bones to see just how hard they really are."
The female saint's voice was chilling. She made her move again, transforming into a giant hand that covered the sky and suppressed Ye Fan and the others with unparalleled power.
Faced with such beings, one who does not become a saint is ultimately just an ant. Even those with exceptional talent, such as Ye Fan and the Holy Prince, are no match for them.
"Kneel or not?" the female saint said calmly, a contemptuous smile on her face, full of mockery.
Regardless of whether Ye Fan, the Holy Prince, Duan De, and the Black Emperor kneel or not, the Holy Woman is the winner.
If you don't kneel, the female saint will kill you, and you will die instantly; if you kneel, your Dao heart will be shattered, and you will have no hope of achieving Dao, or even becoming a saint.
This is a problem that the female saint is bound to win.
Ye Fan and his companions were of course determined to die rather than submit. They had no respect whatsoever for the Undying Emperor and would never kneel down. To do so would be worse than being killed.
Ye Fan knew he couldn't delay any longer, so he focused his attention on manipulating the Sacred Shell to activate the Devouring Demon Jar and, with the help of the Supreme Emperor Weapon, break this deadlock.
"Not kneeling? You have guts, but no one can save you today! From this day forward, kneel before the statue of the Emperor, even in death," the female saint said sinisterly.
The female saint stepped forward, closing in, her large hand suppressing the four people with overwhelming power.
Many living beings who witnessed this sighed, wondering if a peerless genius was about to fall today.
Beside him, the Emperor laughed gleefully, feeling that he had finally vented his pent-up anger.
Ye Fan, the Holy Prince, Duan De, and the Black Emperor were on the verge of death, seemingly about to perish here.
In the shadows, Cao Ya, who was hiding, glanced at Jiang Taixu.
"Eight Divine Generals, what a prestigious title," Cao Ya murmured, his expression rather cold.
“Let’s go out. Those ancient ancestral kings have nothing left to hide. Besides, the current situation doesn’t allow us to continue to stand by and watch,” Jiang Taixu said. The white-robed god-king was usually calm and serene, but seeing the actions of the eight divine generals and the female saint, anger arose in his heart.
Cao Ya nodded and, together with Jiang Taixu, openly revealed themselves.
Beyond the Jade Pool, deep in the void, in a place that was originally empty, spatial folds suddenly appeared, and then two figures emerged, radiating light and shaking the heavens and earth.
"You say no one can save them? Aren't we human? Or do you think you're an immortal emperor who can suppress the world? Even an immortal emperor is not invincible." Cao Ya spoke, and while in mid-air, he flicked his finger, and a profound wind-element law surged, instantly suppressing the female saint of the Eight Divine Generals.
The female saint was startled and hastily blocked the attack. With a "poof," her two arms, with their icy skin and snow-white bones, shattered and turned into a lump of mud. Then, an indescribable force pressed down, causing her to fall to the ground like a dead dog, unable to move.
This sudden turn of events left all the living beings present frozen in shock.
"Ah!!!" The saintess roared, activating the divine laws within her body. Her holy power boiled and surged, trying to resist the immense force pressing down on her, and she got up from the ground.
However, Cao Ya's power is comparable to that of a sixth-rank Immortal Saint. How could a fourth-rank Immortal Saint possibly contend with him?!
"Ah! You bastard!" the saintess roared. For so many years, no one had ever dared to humiliate her like this.
Cao Ya remained indifferent, flipped his hand, and the profound laws pressed down. With a loud bang, the female saint's body almost shattered, and blood flowed out, staining the earth red.
The Eight Divine Generals and the Holy Maiden, who were so arrogant and invincible before, have fallen to such a state in the blink of an eye. Undoubtedly, everyone present was stunned.
Who is it? It is so powerful that it suppressed an ancient ancestral king right from the start, and is incomparably strong.
Outside the Jade Pool, all living beings looked over, and when they saw the two people falling from mid-air, their pupils instantly contracted, and they were all horrified and moved.
Then the human cultivators erupted in cheers that shook the heavens.
"Cao Ya the Great Sage?!"
"I was wondering who was so awesome, it turns out it's Cao Ya the Great Sage!"
"And the White-Robed God-King, he has also become a saint!"
"Humanity is mighty! Humanity is invincible!"
The cultivators cheered in unison, all revealing bright smiles. The immense pressure brought by the Primordial Ancestral King dissipated in an instant.
The ancient creature's face was very ugly, turning ashen.
The scene of Cao Ya, the Great Sage of the Human Race, inspecting the Eastern Wilderness with the Devouring Demon Jar is still vivid in people's minds, making countless ancient races feel aggrieved and angry.
The Emperor's son had a gloomy expression, clearly furious to the extreme, but dared not speak because of the Great Sage's divine might.
Beings like the Six Great Sages of Immortal Realm are only two major realms away from becoming emperors. In an era without emperors, they are the undisputed overlords of the universe, and even quasi-emperors must give them due respect.
The trump card of the ancient royal family, apart from the ancient imperial weapon, is nothing more than the Great Sage.
Those beings who are quasi-emperors or quasi-kings, once they are associated with the word "emperor" or "king," will always have the ambition to achieve enlightenment, wanting to dominate an entire era and replicate the glory of ancient emperors.
In ancient times, those beings all attempted to attain enlightenment, but they almost all failed, their bodies and souls perishing.
Therefore, even the ancient royal families that once dominated the universe have basically no quasi-emperor level beings that have remained sealed away until now.
Above the ancient star of the Big Dipper, the Great Sage is extremely powerful!
"Cao Ya the Great Sage?!"
"God King?!"
Ye Fan, Duan De, the Black Emperor, and the Holy Prince all breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that with the appearance of these two Saints, their life-or-death crisis had been resolved.
With the Great Sage present, who dares to be arrogant?
At the same time, Ye Fan's eyes stung as he gazed at the white-robed God King.
He was able to get to where he is today entirely thanks to the white-robed god-king of the Jiang family, who helped him reconnect the severed path of his holy body, cleansed the Great Dao with the blood of the god-king, and helped him break through.
It can be said that the majority of the credit for the existence of the human race's sacred body today belongs to the White-Clad God-King.
When the God-King, a hero in his twilight years, wandered into the Great Wilderness, seeking only death, he felt immense sorrow, yet was powerless to help, for the God-King was heartbroken and despondent.
But in the end, the God King returned and took up residence in the ancient Jiang family. He secretly went to see him once and also met some of his Jiang family friends, such as Jiang Yichen and Jiang Tingting. When he learned that the God King had become a saint, Ye Fan was genuinely happy for him, even happier than when he himself broke through.
"God King".
Ye Fan stepped forward and performed a deep bow of respect, almost choking up, his emotions genuine.
The God-King was a close elder to him, like a teacher or a father, whom he respected from the bottom of his heart.
Although Cao Ya Dasheng showed him considerable respect and was absolutely not disrespectful, he did not have the same teacher-father-like feelings for him.
This is normal. Cao Ya is an ancient person from more than 200,000 years ago. He has only recently come out of the Divine Source. What he has done should be respected by Ye Fan and the others. However, it is indeed unlikely that he would have such feelings.
"Get up." God King Jiang Taixu personally pulled Ye Fan up with force.
Dressed in white, he was like a painting, revealing unparalleled elegance and stirring people's hearts. There are many kings in the world, but under the heavens, only Jiang Taixu was crowned with the title of "peerless".
"Great Sage Cao Ya." Then, Ye Fan bowed to Cao Ya again.
"Great Sage, God King, should we kill them?" Duan De approached, bowed, and asked.
As he spoke, he rubbed his hands together, and a bit of color returned to his pale face. Clearly, he had ulterior motives and wanted to plunder the treasures of the Eight Divine Generals and the Holy Maiden.
The Holy Prince and the Black Emperor wiped away the bloodstains, mobilized their divine power to heal their injuries, and stepped forward to pay their respects.
"Hmm." Cao Ya nodded, but did not look at Ye Fan and the others, nor at the eight divine generals and the female saint, or the ancient kings who were caught in a dilemma and sweating profusely.
His gaze was fixed in another direction, where the aura of a Great Sage was hidden but not yet released, yet it was locked onto him, revealing a sinister intent.
Clearly, the Great Sage of the Primordial Royal Family was warning Cao Ya not to act recklessly!
