99: Chapter 99 The Foundation of the Qian Yuan Holy Land, the Battlefield Beyond the Territory

Seeing this, the ancestor of the Qianyuan Holy Land sneered, "Chu Chen, I may be inferior to you in the Saint Realm."

"But to think you can break the great formation of my Qianyuan Holy Land with just a magic dragon is simply ridiculous."

As the Qianyuan ancestor finished speaking, a golden rune barrier manifested, instantly blocking the magic dragon outside.

Immediately after, the golden runes detached from the barrier and flew toward the magic dragon.

The moment they approached the magic dragon, streams of sacred power burst forth from the golden runes, instantly shattering the magic dragon's body.

Seeing this, the Qianyuan ancestor mocked, "Chu Chen, this Saint told you that you cannot break the Qianyuan Holy Land's great formation."

"However, this Saint is still willing to give you one more chance; if you leave now,"

"we shall consider today's events as having never happened, including your slaughter of Qianyuan City. How about it?"

"Otherwise, even if I have to exhaust the entire heritage of the Qianyuan Holy Land, I will spare no cost to suppress and kill you here."

Hearing this, Chu Chen remained indifferent, not taking the Qianyuan ancestor's words to heart in the slightest.

"Then I would like to see exactly what this ten-thousand-year heritage of the Qianyuan Holy Land is like."

Though he said that, Chu Chen did not let his guard down at all. He instantly activated the Blood Demon Eye, and the Golden Crow Divine Fire burned within his blood-colored pupils.

"Good, good, good! Very good, Chu Chen!"

"Since you are determined to seek death, this Saint shall fulfill your wish."

As he finished speaking, the Qianyuan ancestor took out an ancient token and spat a mouthful of essence blood onto it, which was instantly absorbed by the token.

"Disciple Li Hua requests the heritage of the Qianyuan Holy Land to manifest and suppress the enemy."

After saying this, the Qianyuan ancestor, Li Hua, turned pale, and the powerful aura on his body vanished.

"Boom!"

The next instant, over the entire Qianyuan Holy Land, streams of sacred light shot into the sky.

At this moment, the great formation that shrouded the entire Qianyuan Holy Land began to dissipate, and golden runes began to coalesce.

Within moments, a character for 'Emperor' condensed, and a terrifying imperial might swept across the wilderness.

Those streams of sacred light that had shot into the sky now converged upon this 'Emperor' character.

Subsequently, a golden figure appeared, standing between heaven and earth.

Meanwhile, countless factions across the Nine Provinces were observing this battle from the shadows.

"The Qianyuan Holy Land's heritage has awakened!!"

"It seems the rumors were true; Chu Chen truly possesses the strength to fight six Saints, otherwise he wouldn't have forced Li Hua to use the Qianyuan Holy Land's heritage."

Saint-level existences in the shadows communicated.

"However, after this battle, one side will inevitably exit the stage of history. If the Qianyuan Holy Land wins,"

"they might barely manage to keep their name as a Holy Land, but without their heritage, the Holy Land will eventually walk the path of decline."

"So, no matter how this battle goes, the Qianyuan Holy Land is the side that will suffer a great loss."

"But if Chu Chen wins, I believe no one will dare to covet the great emperors inheritance he possesses in the future."

At this moment, Li Hua looked at Chu Chen with eyes full of killing intent and roared, "Chu Chen, I have paid such a great price today to summon the ten-thousand-year heritage of my Qianyuan Holy Land; I must suppress and kill you!"

Chu Chen's eyes turned toward the golden figure that stood as tall as the sky. "Possessing imperial might—is this the heritage of the Qianyuan Holy Land?"

At this moment, the golden figure seemed to possess consciousness, and a sigh resounded.

"To think that this imperial will I left behind has actually been summoned."

"Is my great emperors inheritance destined to be severed like this?"

The golden figure first scanned the entire Qianyuan Holy Land before finally fixing its gaze on Chu Chen.

"Junior, I do not care what grudges you have between you."

"If you promise me to leave a glimmer of hope for the Qianyuan Holy Land, how about I grant you this imperial will?"

Upon hearing this, Li Hua asked in confusion, "Ancestor, he is only in the Saint Realm; you could suppress and kill him with the flip of a hand. Why would you..."

The factions hidden in the shadows were also puzzled when they saw this.

"An imperial will? It is indeed a good thing, but what if I refuse!" Chu Chen replied.

"Junior, are you sure you have made your choice?" the golden figure spoke again, its voice devoid of joy or anger.

"Come and fight. You are an imperial will, not a true Great Emperor. There is no reason for me to back down."

"I also want to see if I, in the Saint Realm, can defeat a Quasi-Emperor."

In an instant, Chu Chen erupted with extreme fighting intent, and a Demon God Phantom condensed behind him.

"Junior, your courage is commendable. However, the word 'Emperor' crushes the ages. No one can fight an Emperor across realms, even if it is just a wisp of imperial will."

As the golden figure finished speaking, it pressed a finger out, the terrifying imperial might crushing the space.

The factions observing from the shadows had their probing spiritual senses shattered by this imperial might.

"Junior, this imperial will of mine has slumbered for too long; now, it can only unleash one full-strength strike at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm."

"If you can withstand it, then the fortune of my great emperors inheritance has come to an end, and you may destroy it yourself."

Chu Chen did not answer; the Blood Demon Eye was infinitely simulating the future, calculating how to withstand this finger.

Yet in countless simulations, he was severely injured by this finger, left with only a breath of life.

Is the Emperor truly invincible? Chu Chen wondered in his heart.

The next moment, Chu Chen activated the Demon God Body ability, and his realm soared.

"Quasi-Emperor Third Layer!!"

Unexpectedly, the Demon God Body ability was so domineering. It is said that Emperors are invincible, yet it still increased his power by one major realm, just like before.

At this moment, supreme imperial might radiated from within Chu Chen's body, and he likewise pressed out with a finger.

The moment the two fingers collided, terrifying imperial might swept out, and the entire Qianyuan Holy Land turned to ash under this supreme imperial might.

However, Chu Chen was different from this imperial will. He was genuinely at the Quasi-Emperor Third Layer, not just an imperial will capable of unleashing a single strike at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm.

Naturally, he had the ability to protect Xiang Nantian, Xue Huazi, Liu Xianer, and the others.

Seeing this, the golden figure sighed mournfully, "How did you do it? To defy an Emperor from the Saint Realm—this has never happened throughout history."

"It is not unjust that my inheritance has been destroyed by your hands. I will wait for you at the Outer Realm Battlefield."

As the golden figure finished speaking, its entire body turned into specks of starlight and dissipated.

Chu Chen looked at the barren scene before him, his eyes filled with helplessness. "I was careless. I was so focused on fighting that I should have preserved the Qianyuan Holy Land."

"So many resources have been destroyed in an instant under the imperial might. It seems I must be more careful next time."

As the supreme imperial might vanished, countless factions in the shadows once again extended their spiritual senses.

Immediately, they witnessed a shocking scene!!!

"It's Chu Chen! Chu Chen is still alive."

"Not only is he alive, but damn it, he doesn't even have a single injury! How heaven-defying is this? That was an imperial will! How did he do it?"

"It seems the Qianyuan Holy Land has completely vanished from the Nine Provinces, not even leaving a speck of dust behind."

"Have you seen enough?" The next moment, Chu Chen's voice rang out, his scarlet eyes seemingly piercing through the void to look at the onlookers.
