"This flag formation is a treasure of heaven and earth, able to trap strong adversaries from the other shore. The nine supreme beings battling within are actually about to break the formation. How powerful are they?"

The turbulence of the flag formation was continuous, threatening to break at any moment, causing the cultivators present to tremble in fear. These young supremes were really too fierce.

"This flag formation cuts off heaven and earth; even I can't peer inside. I wonder if the qilin has been subdued?" Ye Chen looked at the flag formation with a solemn expression, contemplating whether to rush in.

The qilin was a divine beast favored by heaven and earth. If Ye Chen could obtain the qilin, not only would he be blessed with the purple aura, but he would also gain a divine beast to protect his path.

However, the nine supremes were too fierce. If Ye Chen rashly joined the fight, facing the attack of nine people would be troublesome.

Ye Chen wanted to watch quietly from the sidelines and seize the opportunity to strike a sneak attack.

But he was worried about the qilin choosing its master. Once the qilin chose a master under pressure, even if he could strike a sneak attack, he wouldn't be able to change the outcome.

"Hey, you're acting strange today, just staring at the flag formation. What are you planning to do?"

Ye Chen had been staring at the flag formation, which made Xingmou curious. What was he up to?

"The nine supremes are gathered, and the qilin cub is about to give in. I'm considering whether to join the battle, fight against the supremes, and compete for the qilin!" Ye Chen didn't hide his thoughts at all.

"Pfft!"

As Ye Chen expected, Xingmou burst out laughing, holding her stomach and almost splitting her sides.

Xingmou had known Ye Chen for half a month, and he bragged every day, claiming his name was Emperor of Heaven, from above the nine skies, with combat prowess surpassing the supremes...

Every time Ye Chen said these things, he would be scorned by a group of people. Chu Chen and others considered Ye Chen a clown, living in his own world every day. If not for Xingmou's protection, Chu Chen and others would have driven him away long ago.

Xingmou enjoyed being with Ye Chen. Although he was a show-off, she found it very entertaining and amusing!

"You don't believe me?" Ye Chen asked.

"A mere ten dragons, and you dare to falsely claim supremacy?" Xingmou said speechlessly.

"I'm not lying to you. I come from the nine skies, named the Emperor of Heaven!" Ye Chen insisted earnestly.

Xingmou stared blankly at Ye Chen. Where did this guy get his courage?

"Xingmou, don't bother with him anymore. This guy is just a joke!" Chu Chen came over, not letting Xingmou get close to Ye Chen.

"We are disciples of the sacred ground; he's just a loose cultivator. We are destined to dominate the ups and downs, while he can only lead an insignificant existence. We are not on the same level!" Chu Chen said coldly and sarcastically, insinuating that Ye Chen's cultivation was too weak, and he would end up a mere insignificant ant.

"How can an ant understand the grandeur of a dragon!" Ye Chen retorted, comparing himself to a dragon and calling Chu Chen an ant.

"Ignorant!" Chu Chen snapped coldly.

He really wanted to kill Ye Chen, but Xingmou took good care of him, making him extremely cautious and hesitant to make a move.

"Girl, what's your real name?" Xingmou asked Ye Chen, realizing that after so long, she still didn't know his name.

"Emperor of Heaven!" Ye Chen replied.

"Can you stop joking?" Xingmou was almost driven mad.

"I really am not joking," Ye Chen said. "I come from the nine skies, known as the Emperor of Heaven!"

Seeing Ye Chen's seriousness, Xingmou was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Xingmou, let's stop bothering with him. Such a person doesn't deserve deep interaction!" Chu Chen tried to drive a wedge between Xingmou and Ye Chen.

Xingmou is the younger sister of the Saintess of Baihua Palace, and Chu Chen always wanted to win Xingmou's favor to connect with the great ship of the Baihua Palace.

But Ye Chen's arrival had caught Xingmou's attention, making Chu Chen very hostile towards him.

"Brother Chu Chen, I want to take him as my servant!" Xingmou looked at Ye Chen, expressing her thoughts.

Chu Chen's breath hitched when he heard this, and his hatred for Ye Chen deepened.

"Why do you want to take me as your servant?" Ye Chen asked with a smile.

"Because you're too weak, and I want to protect you!" Xingmou stated her reason, a very pure reason at that.

Xingmou, being the younger sister of the Saintess of Baihua Palace, had been well-protected since she was young, giving her a rare purity.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I will not be a servant!" Ye Chen shook his head and declined.

Ye Chen's forbearance and lurking made him appear very weak, but his combat power was brilliant, no weaker than an innate supreme, such a person would never be someone's servant.

Moreover, Ye Chen also planned to infiltrate the Baihua Palace. How could he follow a young girl?

"Why refuse me? I am also doing it for your own good!" Xingmou said earnestly.

This young girl was really pure, wanting to take Ye Chen as a servant to protect him.

But Ye Chen unexpectedly refused her protection, surprising and somewhat vexing Xingmou. This person was really unappreciative.

"I come from the nine skies, ranked as the Emperor of Heaven. How can I be someone's servant?" Ye Chen argued.

"..." Xingmou was truly defeated, because Ye Chen was shamelessly boasting until now.

"Xingmou, let's cut ties with him. This kind of person isn't worth associating with deeply!"

Seizing the moment when Xingmou was distraught, Chu Chen directly pulled her away from Ye Chen.

"Interesting!"

Ye Chen, cunning as a demon, naturally saw through Chu Chen's thoughts.

But Xingmou couldn't possibly like Chu Chen, for Chu Chen wasn't as handsome as him!

"Chu Chen, let go of me!" Xingmou said coldly.

"Xingmou, that man is of bad character and not worthy of your close association!" Chu Chen released Xingmou and said earnestly, not wanting her to get close to Ye Chen.

"Chu Chen, I respect you as an elder, thus I call you Senior Brother, but please don't interfere with me!" Xingmou looked at Chu Chen and said coldly.

"Xingmou, don't be angry. Senior Brother is afraid you'll be deceived!" Chu Chen said with an awkward smile.

"Hmph!" Xingmou gave a cold laugh.

Although she was naive, she was not foolish. Chu Chen claimed to have her best interests at heart, but his intentions were insidious and nowhere near as sincere as Ye Chen's.

"Eh, where has he gone? Why can't I see him?" Xingmou thought about looking for Ye Chen but realized she couldn't find him.

"Boom—"

A loud noise shook the heavens and the earth.

The battle among the nine supreme beings finally broke the flag formation, and they emerged from the formation, clashing and charging.

The young qilin, stepping on clouds and moving with extreme speed, dodged the capture of the nine, and although peril surrounded it, it was not yet driven to a corner.

"The young qilin is destined to submit to me! If you forcibly obstruct, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Wan Shixiong roared, his voice shaking the surroundings as a demonic shadow appeared behind him, making him seem even more invincible.

Wan Shixiong harbored intense hostility towards Hua Chang, Zi Feng, and First Sword because if it weren't for their interference, he would have already subdued the young qilin.

"The qilin, a creature of fortune, belongs to those with virtue!" First Sword stood strong like a sharp sword. Even in the face of the formidable Wan Shixiong, he did not retreat as his sword only advanced and never backed down.

"This place is under the control of Longyue Sacred Ground, and the young qilin should belong to us!" Hua Chang emerged amidst the fray, and while battling others, she made several attempts to forcibly seize the young qilin.

"Heaven and Earth, begin!"

Suddenly, a young supreme being arrived with power, his left hand representing the yin and his right the yang. This unity of yin and yang burst forth boundlessly. He shook off the strong opponents on either side and reached out for the young qilin. This man was none other than Pure Yang—Zi Feng.

"Light Wing Slash!"

Just as Zi Feng was about to touch the qilin, a pair of massive wings slashed towards him, the wings enveloped in divine brilliance, shaking heaven and earth as they struck down.

Ultimately, Zi Feng was obstructed, and the chaotic battle escalated, with nine young supreme beings desperately fighting, each desiring to subdue the young qilin.

The youthful supreme beings, powerful and indomitable, their frenzied fight threw the entire frontier into upheaval.

The young qilin darted across the sky; wherever it went, the battle followed, with the nine supreme beings targeting it relentlessly.

"Roar!"

The young qilin suddenly roared fiercely, emitting a primordial aura, creating a terrifying storm that surged toward the nine supreme beings.

The nine supreme beings relentlessly pursued, treating it as prey, which forced the qilin to release its life-saving divine skill and start a desperate struggle against the nine.

The qilin, a mythical creature, half-kind and half-ferocious, was originally gentle, but these nine had forcefully provoked its ferocity.

The young qilin unleashed an unrivaled divine skill, instantly alarming the nine supreme beings.

The combat power of the young qilin was terrifying. If it were a one-on-one fight, it could match any of them. Now unleashed its life-saving divine skill, its fierce might surged, putting the nine instantly on high alert.

"Demons and Gods Annihilate the Heavens, a Fist Dominating!" Wan Shixiong, always the most forceful, unafraid of the qilin's frenzy, struck with a fist, demons and gods emerging, aiming to defeat the qilin with his strongest move and subdue the mythical creature.

"Unity of Man and Sword, Invincible in the Heavens and Earth!"

First Sword was not to be outdone, also seeking to defeat the qilin head-on, making the mythical creature submit to him.

"Stabilizing Heaven and Earth, a True Phoenix Strike!" Hua Chang released a golden phoenix from her body, sternly pressing down towards the qilin, already using her innate divine ability.

"A Strike Obliterates the Heavens, the Primal Divine Brilliance!" Zi Feng powerfully attacked as well, a divine light startling the heavens and earth, sweeping furiously towards the young qilin.

"Pure Yang Infinite, Furious Strike!"

"Heaven and Earth Darkness, Life and Death Together!"

The young qilin released its life-saving divine skill, its ferocity exploding, striving to retaliate against the nine supreme beings capturing it.

However, the nine supreme beings were extremely powerful. Facing the counterattack of the qilin, they erupted with their strongest force, wanting to crush the young qilin head-on and subdue it!

"Boom—"

The nine supreme beings, together with the young qilin, made ten terrifying beings. Their violent actions made this realm boil.

These individuals were so powerful that the surrounding cultivators kept retreating, afraid of being affected by the battle.

"Roar!"

In the midst of chaos, a low roar sounded, seemingly in mourning; eventually, the young qilin, blood-stained, escaped from that chaotic land.

Although the young qilin was powerful, it was not yet invincible. Against the nine supreme beings, it could only retreat.

"Where do you think you're going!"

The young qilin tried to flee the realm, and Wan Shixiong was the first to charge out.

This demonic-like man was extremely domineering. His punch shattered the ground, blocking the qilin's path. Demons and gods emerged behind him, also blocking the path of Hua Chang, Zi Feng, and First Sword, appearing terribly invincible.

Wan Shixiong swooped in, unstoppable. The qilin's choice of master—it had to be him!

"Boom—"

The young qilin had no escape and could only submit, but just then, the situation suddenly changed. A figure flashed in front of Wan Shixiong, threw a punch, scattered the myriad of gods and demons, and repelled the terrifying demonic man.

"Who are you?" Wan Shixiong stopped his retreat and looked at the man gravely.

"Emperor of Heaven!" Ye Chen's voice wasn't loud, but it echoed across the heavens and earth, allowing everyone to hear.
