As numerous powerful beings at the Saint Realm appeared on various battlefields, the fiercely fighting crowds stopped what they were doing and stared in astonishment at the figures radiating boundless pressure. Then, the crowd quickly gathered towards their own side.
"What's going on? A Saint Realm expert has actually appeared here! You must know that the Divine Source Secret Realm absolutely does not allow Saint Realm experts to exist, otherwise it will attract unimaginable terror and annihilate them!" Yuan Ruochu asked loudly, her face full of doubt and shock.
His once resolute and confident face now showed a hint of worry. Just as Yuan Ruochu had said, the group of powerful individuals, led by him, Ji Jingtian, Yu Ziyu, and Jun Yichen, relied on their terrifying strength and extraordinary physiques to maintain a firm advantage and suppress their enemies, even when facing several opponents of the same realm. However, now that two Saint Realm experts had suddenly appeared on the battlefield, the situation had instantly changed dramatically.
Faced with such a grim situation, Yuan Ruochu and the others felt extremely heavy-hearted, but they did not show any intention of backing down. After all, as invincible geniuses of the same level in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, they possessed the pride of being the most outstanding geniuses.
Yuan Haoran was very clear about the rules within the Divine Source Secret Realm; the appearance of Saint Realm experts was absolutely forbidden. He pondered this inwardly, and in an instant, a vast and boundless power of his Innate Saint Body Dao Embryo surged into his eyes like a raging torrent. With the infusion of this power, Yuan Haoran's eyes instantly turned a dazzling gold! These golden eyes seemed to possess the ability to see the truth of all things in the world.
With his golden eyes possessing mysterious power, Yuan Haoran easily discerned the hidden clues within those half-human, half-beast Saint Realm experts. He murmured to himself, "So that's how it is... they're actually soul entities?"
Just then, the Ancient Demon Lord, who had been feigning mystery, saw that Yuan Haoran had seen through the true identities of these powerful figures, and stopped concealing herself. She revealed a breathtaking smile and slowly said, "Indeed, this is the Demon-Condensing Pearl, one of the exclusive treasures left behind by the Primordial Demon Ancestor! It not only possesses the power to imprison and seal, but more importantly, it contains the souls of countless powerful demons. Moreover, as my own cultivation and strength continue to improve, the strength of the demon souls I can summon will also increase accordingly!"
Ji Jingtian then asked a few more questions, his tone filled with surprise and doubt: "So, does that mean that once you reach the Quasi-Emperor realm, you can also summon the souls of Quasi-Emperor realm experts, or even the souls of Great Emperor realm experts?"
Upon hearing this, the Ancient Demon Lord replied without hesitation, "Theoretically speaking, that is indeed the case. However..." He then changed the subject, saying in a deep voice, "The current situation on the field is clear, and the scales of victory are undoubtedly tilting in our favor. Gentlemen, are you all mentally prepared for your impending doom?"
Just then, Yuan Haoran, who had been silent all along, stepped forward. He was second only to Yuan Zhexian in strength among the younger generation of the Yuan clan. His posture was as upright as a pine tree, his eyes firm and sharp, as he said, “Why waste time arguing! So what if you have the soul of a Saint Realm expert to aid you? The people of the Yuan clan have never feared any enemy. If you want war, then we will gladly fight to the end!”
The ancient dragon prince opposite him scoffed at Yuan Haoran's boastful words, sneering, "They're already on the verge of death, yet they're still so stubborn. They're truly courting death!" He then continued, addressing the assembled prodigies, "Quickly eliminate them! Lest things get complicated." He knew that as long as the Yuan clan remained, they would become a major threat to their struggle for the Emperor's Path, hence his impatient urging for their annihilation.
In this tense moment, Yuan Yan'er stared intently at the composed Yuan Zhexian, her heart pounding in her chest. "Divine Child, aren't we going to help Brother Haoran?" Yuan Yan'er's voice was filled with barely concealed urgency. However, Yuan Zhexian merely looked at her, a slight smile appearing on his calm face, and said softly, "Yan'er, you're too impetuous. Don't rush, now is not the time for me to act. Let's continue watching."
Although Yuan Yan'er was extremely anxious, Yuan Zhexian's words puzzled her greatly. From Yuan Yan'er's perspective, the crisis seemed imminent, and every second of waiting increased the danger. She simply couldn't understand why Yuan Zhexian could remain so calm; in the face of such a powerful enemy, any mistake could lead to everyone's demise.
On the other side, Yuan Haoran led Yuan Ruochu, Ji Jingtian, Yu Ziyu, Jun Yichen, and others as the main force, with Ji Youxin, Jun Luofan, Yu Chenfeng, Xiao Wangchuan, Yuan Changkong, Yuan Suyu, and Yuan Xingchen as support. The twelve of them charged straight towards the location of the Ancient Demon Lord and the Ancient Dragon Prince. They knew the situation was dire, and capturing the leader was the only strategy. If they didn't deal with the Ancient Demon Lord first, they wouldn't be able to withstand the threat posed by the twelve Saint-level soul bodies.
Yuan Haoran stood in the void like a celestial king, radiating golden light. His hands rapidly formed hand seals. With his movements, an invisible force condensed in the air, forming crystal-clear, primordial jade seals. These primordial jade seals exuded a suffocating pressure, as if even the air itself trembled. Immediately afterward, a bowl-shaped golden cloud appeared in the sky, and from within it slowly emerged a gigantic golden bell, which too emanated a heart-palpitating pressure, as if even heaven and earth shook.
Yuan Haoran manipulated the Boundless Jade Seal with his left hand and the golden bell with his right, the two acting as his left and right hands as they sped towards the Ancient Demon Lord. Facing this sudden attack, the Ancient Demon Lord remained calm and composed. With a wave of her hand, four Saint-level soul entities immediately appeared before her, forming a solid defensive line.
Seeing this, Jun Yichen's aura erupted like a volcano, golden light bursting from his Ancient Sacred Body, illuminating the entire battlefield. He gathered all the power of the Ancient Sacred Body into his fists, which, like two golden beams of light, blasted towards the four Saint Realm soul bodies with all his might. His attack was like a thunderbolt, unstoppable.
At the same time, Yuan Ruochu, Ji Youxin, Jun Luofan, Yu Chenfeng, Xiao Wangchuan, Yuan Changkong, Yuan Suyu, and Yuan Xingchen also joined the battle. Their targets were the Ancient Dragon Prince, Zhuyao, the Ancient Peng Prince of the Golden-Winged Roc Clan, and other ancient divine sons and ancient freaks. Although they knew their opponents were powerful, they still rushed towards them without hesitation, using their strength to try to hold them off and buy time for Yuan Haoran to kill the Ancient Demon Lord.
