Chapter 1088: The Sacred Body’s Might

A giant foot descended from the heavens… it could be said to be utterly unrestrained, covering everyone below, crushing them all!

On the golden ancient war chariot stood the princess of the Golden Clan. As the daughter of a Primordial Emperor, even the six ferocious beasts pulling her chariot were at the Dao Severing level. Her status was noble; who had ever dared to act this way?

Everyone was stunned. Stepping on an ancient emperor’s daughter, looking down upon the Southern Domain—truly without any taboos, scorning everything, overwhelmingly domineering!

“Who is this?” Not a single person remained unmoved. All were shocked, their pupils constricting, mouths gaping, watching with intense focus.

“Pfft”

Wang Xu spat blood, his body violently shaking as cracks appeared on him. He was sent flying dozens of zhang away, utterly unable to withstand this pressure.

He had been injured by Huang Xudao and the Holy Prince, nearly having his Dao source severed, and still hadn’t recovered. Now, being intimidated by a figure at the Imperial Prince level, his old wounds flared up again.

“How dare you!” Someone shouted, quickly striking out to counter Ye Fan’s giant foot. It was a guard of the Golden Bloodline, attacking horizontally.

However, Ye Fan struck with overwhelming force. How could he retreat halfway? Strands of sacred radiance seeped from his entire body. His bearing was solemn and dignified as he descended imposingly. The giant foot’s trajectory remained unchanged, and it even emitted even more terrifying fluctuations.

The Golden Heavenly Maiden and the Phoenix-Eyed Man shifted sideways, choosing to evade. Because Ye Fan was coming down from above, stepping on them, his attack was too “sharp.”

How could the youngest daughter of a Primordial Emperor, the center of attention, showered with all kinds of favor, proud and honored, possibly look up and clash with someone’s foot?

And the Phoenix-Eyed Man also possessed an extraordinary status, noble and elegant. It was even more impossible for him to meet a giant foot head-on. He chose to dodge first.

Others had no such considerations. When the ancient emperor’s daughter traveled, she naturally had guards accompanying her. Several of them struck out simultaneously, charging to kill… but they simply couldn’t block it.

“Dong!”

This foot landed, forming a shockwave that sent all of them tumbling and rolling away, like a clap of muffled thunder.

At the same time, the Golden Princess and the Phoenix-Eyed Man also retreated hundreds of zhang, avoiding the brunt of the attack.

“Dang!”

Ye Fan’s foot landed on the golden war chariot, shattering it into pieces. The six ancient beasts neighed loudly, scattering in all directions, all frightened into retreat.

In the distance, the crowd was dead silent. This person was too domineering. He destroyed the ancient emperor’s daughter’s chariot as soon as he arrived, shattering it with one stomp… arrogant to the extreme, completely fearless.

Almost everyone was stunned. This was a Heavenly Maiden of an Ancient Emperor, and the other was the great disciple of a foreign sage. The newcomer was utterly unscrupulous, stomping the golden chariot to pieces with one foot… metallic fragments scattering in all directions.

“Who is this?” someone whispered, showing a shocked expression, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

In the current world, the most powerful forces were none other than the Ancient Imperial Clans. And now, someone dared to make a move against their Heavenly Maiden—this was definitely sensational.

“Shh… keep your voice down. The main character has finally appeared again. Today might just stir up the heavens again.”

“Who are you talking about?” Many were puzzled.

“Heh, quite a few people can probably guess this person’s identity. There might be earth-shattering waves. Could it be that he intends to slaughter the Golden Princess this time? If so, things will get huge.”

A few people whispered, not daring to speak loudly… afraid of causing trouble.

“The princess of the Golden Clan, a beauty of national renown… divine skin and jade bones, naturally graceful. Is he going to cruelly destroy a flower?”

“He might be targeting the Phoenix-Eyed Man.”

On this high ground, many people cast their gazes into the arena, their eyes flickering with both hope and fear.

In the distance, Black Emperor and Ye Tong, seeing this, walked out from the Domain Gate again, but they changed positions, flying to the edge of the sky to watch the battle.

Ye Fan was the center of attention. Many people suspected his identity. The sky he occupied was very quiet; those who dared to discuss him were all in the distant sky.

“Who are you, daring to block the princess’s path and destroy her chariot? State your name!” The people of the Golden Bloodline shouted.

Ye Fan swept his gaze over them without paying any attention. He strode forward, closing in on the Phoenix-Eyed Man, preparing to strike again.

“Senior Brother, capture him! He is most likely the Sacred Body, Ye Fan!” Wang Xu shouted, his eyes red. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his body still convulsing.

He had been extremely terrified just now. When that foot came down, he felt as if the end of the world had arrived. He barely dodged it, but the residual shockwave still triggered his old injuries.

“Whoa”

This high ground immediately became noisy. Although some people had suspected it, Wang Xu saying it out loud had a different effect.

“He… is it really Ye Fan? After fourteen years, has he returned to this world?”

“Not long ago, he killed the Celestial Prince, almost causing a civil war among the ancient clans. The storm swept across the Five Domains. Even the Battle Victory Buddha descended Mount Sumeru because of it. Is it really the Sacred Body?”

These days, the whole world was guessing his identity, searching for that mysterious person. And now, Ye Fan’s reappearance naturally caused an uproar.

“That’s right, it’s this person who once fought several Ancient Imperial Princes, broke free from the combined attack of Huang Xudao and Huo Qizi, and finally killed the Celestial Prince!”

People didn’t know if this person was the real Ye Fan, but they could be sure that it was him who made a move that day, fighting the Eight Divine Generals, a battle that turned the ground into a river of blood.

The Golden Princess’s skin was snow-white and delicate, but her expression was cold and proud. Her long golden hair cascaded around her swan-like neck. Her golden pupils shot out two beams of light, shining on Ye Fan.

This was like a demon-revealing mirror. As long as one was covered by the light beam, their true form would be exposed, and no technique could conceal it.

Ye Fan gave a cold snort. He drew a circle with his hands, and a pattern of Source Heaven patterns appeared. The world didn’t know it, but it caused several Dragon-Seeking Masters from the Central Province to be shaken, unable to help but exclaim in admiration.

“This… changing the great momentum of heaven and earth with a raise of the hand.”

“Such a heaven-defying method. He can borrow the power of mountains, rivers, sun, and moon for his own use. This is a technique at the level of a Grandmaster.”

“Shh.”

The Source Heaven patterns dispersed, radiating divine radiance, blocking and sealing the two golden beams of light, preventing them from penetrating. Moreover, Ye Fan’s Dao technique was very aggressive; it wasn’t just simple defense.

The momentum of the mountains and rivers shifted, transforming into a killing intent that swept upwards, becoming a tsunami-like wave, rushing towards the Golden Princess and the others.

“How dare you!”

A group of guards were shocked and enraged. This person was too aggressive. Now he was attacking the Imperial Princess again. They feared something might go wrong.

“What wouldn’t I dare? Since you’ve all declared I’m making a move, do you think I’m a clay Buddha?” Ye Fan’s divine flames soared to the sky, pressing down like a volcano as tall as the heavens, emitting astonishing divine energy!

With every move he made… blazing light filled the sky… as if a deity was on the move. Strong and domineering, facing the attacks of these guards, he simply struck out with a palm.

“Pfft”

The one at the very front bore the brunt, spitting out a mouthful of blood, like a kite with a broken string. Even though he was far away, he was severely injured and sent flying.

“Are you really the Human Clan’s Sacred Body?” the Heavenly Maiden of the Golden Clan asked, her golden pupils no longer shooting out beams.

Ye Fan walked forward and said, “What if I am, and what if I’m not?”

All around, the crowd was in an uproar, their expressions changing greatly. Was he going to fight the Ancient Emperor’s daughter? This would be a super major event… definitely a shocking battle!

“How dare you! Who do you think you are, speaking to the princess like that!?” a guard shouted.

The princess of the Golden Clan was the most beloved daughter of the former supreme Ancient Emperor. In the eyes of these guards, she was a peerless Heavenly Maiden, not to be profaned. Their reverence bordered on blind worship.

Ye Fan laughed loudly… as if no one else was around, continuing to walk forward, completely unconcerned.

“Insolent! Stop immediately!” the guard shouted again.

“Noisy!” Ye Fan threw a punch, producing the sound of wind and thunder. The clouds in all directions resonated with it, and golden lightning split the sky.

“Bang”

The person blocking him was punched into a mist of blood, nothing left. He advanced with overwhelming force, with an attitude of stopping gods and killing Buddhas… aggressive, staring directly at the Heavenly Maiden of the Golden Clan.

“He…”

A group of guards were both shocked and enraged, guarding the front. The six ancient beasts that pulled the chariot all transformed into human forms, standing in a line, guarding here.

“Let me handle this.” The Phoenix-Eyed Man smiled, stepping out from the crowd and walking forward.

He wore a sky-blue precious robe, had a slender build, fair skin, and a refined and elegant demeanor. He had a pair of phoenix eyes, and when they opened and closed, immortal light overflowed. He was an extraordinary Half-Saint.

“You’re exactly the one I made my move for!” Ye Fan said.

Was it really Ye Fan who had returned? Everyone became more and more convinced. Just now, the Phoenix-Eyed Man had injured Ye Tong, which should be the main reason for his intervention.

“Are you the Human Clan’s Sacred Body?” the Phoenix-Eyed Man asked calmly. His name was Li Wentian, and his identity was extraordinary. He was the proud disciple of a terrifying ancient sage.

“It seems you are not of the Human Clan,” Ye Fan said, opening his Heavenly Eye. He found that the other party’s body had golden light flickering inside, just like the princess of the Golden Clan. Even his internal organs were as if cast from gold, but on the surface, nothing could be seen.

“I come from the ancient star where the Ancestral Emperor of the Golden Bloodline attained the Dao. I have the blood of the Ancient Emperor flowing within me, as well as the blood of the Human Ancestor,” Li Wentian replied.

This was the first time people had heard of his origins. They all showed strange expressions. Clearly, Li Wentian had a great background, his bloodline extremely noble!

“Looking at his outstanding bearing, I didn’t expect his origins to be so extraordinary!”

“Coming from another life-bearing ancient star, the ancestral star of the Primordial Imperial Clan, truly extraordinary.” People couldn’t help but be amazed.

Li Wentian’s body flowed with the blood of an Ancient Emperor, and also possessed the precious blood of the Human Ancestor. It was unknown how many generations removed he was, but his talent was rare.

People understood. No wonder when their master and disciple descended into the Eastern Wasteland, the sage of the Golden Clan went to welcome them. There was a deep connection, a close blood relationship.

“Senior Brother, kill him! The Human Clan’s Sacred Body is the best whetstone for your advancement to Sage!” Wang Xu shouted.

His eyes were bloodshot, somewhat losing reason. In his view, Ye Fan was far more hateful than Huang Xudao and the Holy Prince. Those two had at least personally made a move against him, while this person had only sent a disciple to deal with him in the Divine City. He saw it as an insult.

Ye Fan hadn’t done that, and naturally wouldn’t explain it to him. He swept a glance at him, full of contempt, and said, “In another three years, you won’t even be worthy of being Ye Tong’s opponent.”

“You…” Wang Xu’s face flushed red. He trembled with rage, shouting and pointing a finger at Ye Fan.

“Scram!” Ye Fan gave a light shout, using the Om Character Heavenly Tone. The sound waves were like heavenly swords, resonating with the universe. Behind him, a phantom of a god or demon appeared, and with one roar, mountains and rivers crumbled.

“Ah…”

Wang Xu screamed. His entire body cracked open. Just one shout had injured his origin, nearly causing his form and spirit to be utterly destroyed.

At the critical moment, Li Wentian made his move. His hands formed a precious seal, completely neutralizing the pressure on his junior brother. Otherwise, he would surely have been reduced to a skeleton!

“Human Clan’s Sacred Body, let me test you and see what makes you so extraordinary!” Li Wentian let out a soft cry and charged forward to attack.

“It really is Ye Fan! After fourteen years, has he truly returned?!”

Waves of monstrous waves surged in people’s hearts. Guessing was one thing, but having someone confirm it out loud was another. The news was undoubtedly shocking!
