Supreme Sword God

Chapter 1053: Chapter 1052: Three Ultimate Phenomena, Great Emperor Rivalry

The rhomboid crystal crashed into one of Ye Chen’s acupoints, and instantly, he felt as if it was about to burst.

This was the power left behind by a deity.

The Martial Alliance had used this as a foundation, continually refining divine power, and even after an eternity, it had not been depleted.

Now, the remaining divine power surged within Ye Chen’s acupoint.

Unable to withstand it, this was perfectly normal.

Ye Chen furrowed his brows, immediately pushing the Celestial Stele Breathing Technique to its limits once more.

All his acupoints radiated divine light, collectively sharing the burden of the acupoint filled with divine power.

"Boom!"

Suddenly.

The rhomboid crystal shattered directly.

A tyrannical will broke through its restraints, letting out furious roars of unwillingness.

This was the imprint left behind after the god’s death!

Refining too much divine blood, divine power, and divine thought can easily lead to an accumulation of imprints, turning one into a puppet of the god.

Now, a large number of divine imprints erupted!

However.

No matter how those divine imprints collided and rampaged, they could not break through Ye Chen’s acupoint.

Ye Chen’s acupoint was like an unbreakable great world, sealing everything within!

Moments later.

The divine imprints calmed down, no longer making any movement.

Ye Chen took a deep breath, ended the Celestial Stele Breathing Technique, and the strange phenomenon disappeared as well.

"Strange!"

Ye Chen muttered to himself, "Logically, I should now be able to wield a significant amount of divine power, but... the divine power within my acupoints is completely immobile..."

The feeling was like sitting on a mountain of treasure but unable to take anything from it, which was quite frustrating!

However, Ye Chen quickly became more open-minded.

It didn’t matter if he couldn’t use it now.

After all, it was within his acupoints and would eventually be his.

Sooner or later, there would be a method to mobilize the divine power within his acupoints!

"But explaining this to my uncle and aunt will be hard, having lost the core assets of the Martial Alliance..."

Muttering a few sentences to himself, Ye Chen continued to search for the remaining piece of the token fragment.

......

In the most lavish hall of the Martial Alliance.

Celestial Cauldron Emperor, Celestial Wind Emperor, Celestial Spirit Emperor, Celestial Child Emperor, the four of them were unaware of the events outside.

Celestial Cauldron Emperor calculated the time, then shouted angrily, "The time is up! Why isn’t the barrier here removed yet?"

Celestial Child Emperor coldly smiled and said, "Cauldron, why so anxious? Afraid that Xu Yanran and Liu Mubai might die? Hahaha!"

Celestial Wind Emperor looked towards Celestial Child Emperor and said, "Once the matters of the Martial Alliance are settled, I hope Celestial Child Emperor can visit our Ten Thousand Islands Sect. Emperor Tian Wan wishes to discuss some matters with Celestial Child Emperor."

Celestial Child Emperor laughed and said, "No problem, I’ve long wished to visit Emperor Tian Wan."

Celestial Wind Emperor: "Since it’s on the way, I will first go to Celestial Child Divine Island and experience your Sword Mountain Purgatory."

The two of them seemed quite certain of their hold over the Martial Alliance.

The Spirit Alliance’s Celestial Spirit Emperor remained silent.

After all, he would benefit by taking advantage of the situation.

Celestial Cauldron Emperor had a dark expression, feeling quite upset.

Then, Celestial Child Emperor laughed and said, "The time is up, let’s go, and take a look outside."

The power sealing the grand hall vanished in an instant.

At that moment, the faces of the four emperors were filled with intense shock. They looked up at the sky at the three extreme holy phenomena, finding it unbelievable.

Many have invoked heavenly phenomena upon entering sainthood.

But to achieve the utmost of sainthood was rare.

Now suddenly, there were three?

"It seems the Martial Alliance has hidden many promising talents. Later, we will identify them, and if they comply, accept them under our wings, but if they resist, they must not be kept." Celestial Child Emperor lightly shouted, flying out immediately.

The other emperors also left the hall.

The four emperors appeared at the entrance to the Martial Alliance Forbidden Land.

Celestial Cauldron Emperor, seeing Liu Mubai and Xu Yanran, breathed a sigh of relief.

Though both were severely injured, they were alive at least.

Celestial Wind Emperor, Celestial Child Emperor, Celestial Spirit Emperor frowned.

The people they supported were not here.

Celestial Child Emperor loudly asked, "Where is Zhou Xian?"

At this moment, a timid voice from the crowd answered, "Reporting to the Great Emperor, Elder Zhou has not yet come out..."

Celestial Child Emperor’s face instantly darkened.

This method for electing a new Martial Alliance leader was decided under oaths of significant weight by them.

According to the agreed oaths, if they did not emerge on time, it meant they lost the right to compete.

Celestial Wind Emperor also felt a bit uneasy and said, "Could it be that Xiao Hong hasn’t come out either?"

A voice from the crowd replied, "N... no."

Celestial Wind Emperor’s expression also darkened, becoming like Celestial Child Emperor’s.

The two had just been discussing arrangements after the matter was settled, and now... it was all in vain, all for nothing!

Celestial Spirit Emperor looked at one of his men in the crowd.

The man shook his head.

Celestial Spirit Emperor’s heart skipped a beat.

Celestial Cauldron Emperor, seeing this, felt a surge of relief, laughing heartily, "Since your three parties’ lapdogs did not come out in time, and only Xu Yanran and Liu Mubai emerged, Xu Yanran will become the new Alliance Leader of the Martial Alliance!"

"Cauldron, don’t get carried away with success here. Our agreement does not include this clause. Who can assume charge of the Martial Alliance depends on the number of Token fragments!" Celestial Child Emperor’s face was ashen, shouting angrily.

Celestial Wind Emperor immediately added, "Indeed, although they made it out, without Token fragments, it’s still useless."

The Spirit Alliance’s Celestial Spirit Emperor could no longer remain silent, as it concerned his interest, thus he said, "Cauldron Emperor, Celestial Child Emperor, and Celestial Wind Emperor are right, our agreement clearly states that the rightful leader of the Martial Alliance is determined by the number of Token fragments."

Celestial Cauldron Emperor gritted his teeth, glaring at these three fellows.

At this moment.

Liu Mubai looked at Xu Yanran beside him and said, "Yanran, since they put it that way, show them."

Xu Yanran nodded, stepping forward, and shouted, "Take a good look, the total of nine Token fragments are with me!"

As she finished, the nine Token fragments flew from Xu Yanran’s hands and hovered in the air!

"This..."

"How is this possible?"

"Those three, including Ye Chen, entered last, and it hasn’t been long since they came out... yet all nine Token fragments are with them..."

The crowd exclaimed in surprise.

Celestial Cauldron Emperor’s eyes flashed.

Just now, he seemed to hear a familiar name.

Ye Chen?

When did that brat come?!

By Celestial Child Emperor’s side, a terrifying killing intent suddenly surged.

"Ye Chen is here? Where is he? After killing my daughter, how dare he show himself before me? Today I shall ensure his complete ruin, without even a fragment of his body left, to quench my thirst for vengeance!"
