Two treasures of the sect madly collided, creating a huge sound that shook the heavens and the earth and caused people's eardrums to ache.
Eventually, the Mountain and River Stamp returned to normal, turning into a cyan and white jade seal, which Ye Chen grabbed and tucked into his Qiankun Bag.
The Heaven-Shaking Hammer and the Mountain and River Stamp repeatedly clashed harshly, having their ferocity ground away by Ye Chen until they obediently came under his control. However, Ye Chen did not put the Heaven-Shaking Hammer into the Qiankun Bag; instead, he held the huge hammer and chased after the All Things Cauldron, aiming to seize it as well.
Among the five treasures of the sect, the All Things Cauldron was the most mysterious and unfathomable, as if it were not just a cauldron, but a grand secret.
"Boom!"
Ye Chen, holding the great hammer, swung it wildly, striking the All Things Cauldron and causing boundless turmoil.
"Fiend, you dare to brazenly seize the treasure!"
"Degenerate disciple, hand over the Mountain and River Stamp immediately, it's not something you should possess!"
"You are too foolhardy, to actually seize my Arrow of Nothingness!"
"Beast, let go of my All Things Cauldron, please stop smashing it!"
"This kid is so detestable, he arouses the rage of both heaven and humanity, and the wrath of gods and men..."
As Ye Chen wildly snatched the four treasures of the sect and now aimed to also seize the All Things Cauldron, the four Sovereigns were finally jolted awake, seeing the treasures of the sect being taken and almost bursting into tears.
The loss of one treasure of the sect was negligible to them, but what they cared about was their face... If Ye Chen were to run off with the treasures, they would have to go live at their granny's house, the embarrassment would be too great.
"What are you trying to do?" Master Lingyun, holding a jade longsword, blocked the four Sovereigns.
"Master Lingyun, this disciple of yours is overly bold and reckless, daring to..."
"Enough!" Sovereign Zhiyang had just begun to accuse Ye Chen of his misdeeds when he was coldly interrupted by Master Lingyun.
"..."
"Zhiyang, Daomie, Kaishan, Nanyang, do you really think I am easy to bully?" Master Leng Yun pointed her sword at the four Sovereigns, a faint murderous intent permeating her being, seemingly ready to draw her sword at any moment.
"Today, let me make myself clear, anyone who dares take a step forward, I will fight them to the death, it's either you or me!"
Although Master Lingyun was a woman, she was a true battle maniac, involved in many massacres.
Nowadays, her intent to kill was internalized, not easily leading to a bloodbath, but once she went berserk, she'd be even more frightening than before!
"..."
Master Lingyun, holding the treasure of the heavens, her stance ready to fight to the death, stunned the four Sovereigns.
To lose one treasure of the sect was trivial, but to fight to the death with Master Lingyun, that would certainly be a spectacle.
Master Lingyun and the four Sovereigns held a tense standoff, as Ye Chen swung his heavy hammer once more, finally subduing the All Things Cauldron, shrinking it to the size of a palm-sized Three-legged Bronze Cauldron.
Ye Chen put the All Things Cauldron and the Heaven-Shaking Hammer into the Qiankun Bag, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and thought that fighting to seize the five treasures of the sect was indeed worth it.
"Scroungy fellows, have you been waiting anxiously?" Ye Chen said with a smile bright as fireworks, addressing the five "Scroungy Fellows."
"What do you want to do?"
The young supremes disliked the nickname "Scroungy Fellows"; they were all elegant and handsome men, and the nickname did not suit them at all.
But Ye Chen's fierce reputation had terrorized the young supremes, as he forcefully subdued the five treasures of the sect, scaring them profoundly.
Scroungy fellows or not, they didn't care anymore, they just wanted to know what Ye Chen intended to do; they no longer wanted to fight Ye Chen...
"I want to kill you all!" Ye Chen grinned broadly and revealed his teeth.
"..."
The young supremes, usually the pride of the heavens wherever they went, were now uncommonly silent. As young supremes, they were the most resplendent and esteemed wherever they went.
However, Ye Chen's arrival had brutalized them, completely crushing their pride.
When Ye Chen exhibited his Dharma-Phantom Golden Body, his power was so overwhelming that they could only look up to him. However, Ye Chen's forceful seizure of the treasures plunged them into deep despair.
Barehanded, he fiercely subdued the treasures of the sect, making them obedient, a mightiness that caused them to tremble—an overwhelming strength that drove them to despair!
Even as Ye Chen violently took the five treasures, they could feel the treasures of the sect trembling, a fear of immense power... Unimaginable that a person could make artifacts tremble; just how terrifying was he?
"Are you ready?" Ye Chen asked.
"I'm about to start killing you, and you five are free to resist!"
"Moreover, the more fiercely you resist, the more excited I get, and the more fun we'll have!"
"Five Scroungy Fellows, scream to your heart's content; I'm starting to kill now!"
Ye Chen's smile was like that of a Demon King, his words chilling, frightening the group of young supremes into wanting to run.
"Why aren't you running yet, or do you want to end up like him?" Ye Chen glanced at the Little Demon King, who had fainted on the ground.
"Bastard!"
The five young supremes gritted their teeth with infinite hatred; they were invincible everywhere, when had they ever retreated from a fight?
For Ye Chen to suggest they run away was a tremendous insult to them!
"I gave you a chance to live, yet you chose death. This can't be blamed on me!" Ye Chen said helplessly. "Who just said they wanted to break my legs? Step forward...and someone else mentioned crippling my meridians, leaving me powerless as a disabled person..."
Ye Chen was good at holding grudges, keeping track of everything these people had said in his heart, so when he turned cruel, he felt no guilt.
These people had been hunting Qin Yan for a long time, and some even harbored indecent intentions towards her, which made it even easier for Ye Chen to be ruthless.
The young sovereigns are like the giant pandas of the earth, each one extremely precious and rare. Ye Chen could not possibly kill them all, but he at least wanted to injure them like Qin Yan had been, to avenge Fairy Qin Yan.
"We are the strongest prodigies; how can we be slaughtered at will?"
Being high and mighty, the young sovereigns all possessed a sort of pride. Ye Chen's deliberately tormenting demeanor provoked intense repulsion from them.
"If this kid wants to kill us, I'll fight him to the death. It's still not certain who would kill whom!" The young were full of ferocity, thinking to counterattack and kill Ye Chen, still harboring a sliver of hope.
"I, Zhang Tianheng, am a descendant of the Saint, undefeated in my generation..." This person encouraged himself, mustering the courage to declare war on Ye Chen.
"Hey, stop the nonsense, be serious for goodness' sake, I really am going to kill you!" Ye Chen said to the group.
"You demon, I'm going to kill you!"
One of the young sovereigns took the lead in attacking, using his strongest techniques, opting for a desperate fight-to-death strategy.
"Boom!"
When facing this young sovereign, Ye Chen simply threw a punch, a red path crossing through the void, striking at the young sovereign.
"What!"
A single punch from Ye Chen created a powerful red path, its might unparalleled; the young sovereign, only able to defend a few moves, was utterly defeated, floored by Ye Chen who grabbed his trousers and slammed him onto the ground, causing him to bleed from seven orifices and become dazed.
"Zhang Tianheng was defeated that easily?"
Ye Chen's violent methods sent chills down everyone's spines, shaking the spirit of several young sovereigns, all thinking about running away.
"Come on, you toe-scratching big men!" Ye Chen approached the several young sovereigns.
"Azure Dragon Ambush!" A young sovereign decisively attacked, attempting a desperate struggle.
"Run, run, run fast! He's too powerful; we are no match for him!" Someone completely lost their fighting spirit, turned around, and ran, trying to escape from this dangerous place.
"Sovereign, this child is too vicious; he actually wants to kill us!" Someone directly looked to the four great sovereigns, seeking their protection.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
In the end, whether they fought, ran, or cried for help, they were all slammed to the ground by Ye Chen, lying there coughing up blood incessantly.
"Indeed, the strongest path!"
Only then did Sovereign Daomie affirm something, Ye Chen had realized the strongest Dao fruit, becoming an existence like the Heavenly Emperor, a new supreme king!
"How could another such figure appear, one who could rival that Heavenly Emperor!"
"The strongest path, the supreme king; why isn't this child a disciple of our Shenxiao Sect?"
"It's bad; he really intends to kill, to slay a group of young sovereigns, completing a feat even the Heavenly Emperor didn't succeed at!"
What Ye Chen displayed had already shocked Zai, Zhiyang, and the other sovereigns.
However, before they recovered from their shock, Ye Chen started to perform another terrifying feat, scaring the four great sovereigns out of their wits.
"Legend has it, young sovereigns are born extraordinary, their bones inscribed with runes, those are innate Divine Skills, mighty and unmatched... I really want to see, who is willing to generously share? I happen to have a knife in my hand, ready to pick out the bones, to observe the runes..."
Ye Chen took out a butcher knife from his Qiankun Bag, addressing the dying group of young sovereigns.
"You monstrosity, intending to destroy our human foundations, truly deserving of death!" The four great sovereigns saw Ye Chen's actions, their hair practically standing on end with anger.
"This is a matter between the younger generation; none of us should intervene. Do you want to break the agreement?" Master Lingyun stopped the agitated four great sovereigns.
"Lingyun, your disciple is causing too much trouble; you really need to stop him!" Sovereign Zhiyang was truly anxious.
The extraordinariness of the young sovereigns lies in their special physiques; if Ye Chen were to pick out bones to observe runes, it could ruin their human foundations, possibly wasting their special abilities!
"I don't think this is causing trouble!" Master Lingyun said. "You didn't think it was causing trouble when you indulged your disciples in surrounding and attempting to kill my disciple."
"Enough talk; let's go over there and deal with that kid ourselves!"
Sovereign Daomie exuded divine might, surpassing Master Lingyun with killing intent rushing towards Ye Chen, intending to finish him off!
"How dare you!" Master Lingyun's face changed instantly.
"This kid has committed so many atrocities, a source of public outrage; you, as a master, failed to discipline him, so let us old friends handle it!"
Sovereign Nanyang blocked Master Lingyun while Open Mountain, Zhiyang, and the other two sovereigns also rushed towards Ye Chen, wanting to kill him first rather than save their own disciples?!
