Red Flame Heavenly Sovereign stared at Lin Yuan in a daze.
The other Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns were the same, their eyes filled with disbelief as they looked at Lin Yuan.
Take back the colossal core pillar?
That pillar had already been refined and occupied by Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign—one of the most powerful among the six ancient nations, capable of descending upon the battlefield with a mere thought.
Moreover, there were certainly other Grand Ancient Void Kingdom Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns stationed there with battle-ready bodies guarding it.
Even if the Liyang Kingdom threw everything it had into a full-scale war against Grand Ancient Void, using all of its ancestral trump cards, the chances of seizing that core pillar were still incredibly low.
Let alone sending Lin Yuan alone.
“Milky Way, you mustn’t be impulsive,” Red Flame Heavenly Sovereign said at once.
“Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign's strength is unfathomable. He... he has the power to kill top-tier Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns.”
The only reason Lin Yuan had survived previously was because Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign had focused most of his attention on refining the colossal core pillar. He had simply swatted Lin Yuan away without following up.
But now?
If Lin Yuan dared to approach the core pillar alone, Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign would certainly not hesitate to strike.
Strictly speaking, the Liyang Kingdom was a threat to Grand Ancient Void. Eliminating a top-tier Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign early would be a huge advantage for Grand Ancient Void.
“I know Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign is very powerful,” Lin Yuan nodded.
The most powerful Heavenly Sovereigns of the six ancient nations were comparable to Invincible Supreme Saints of the Chaos Void.
These kinds of beings either had overwhelming advantages—such as mastering the fifth level of Infinite Void, their internal universe thousands of times stronger than others of the same tier—or possessed unique rule-based techniques. Fuxu’s chaotic manipulation of time, for example, left even the strongest unable to resist.
“Don’t worry. If I dare to go, I definitely have the confidence to do it.”
Lin Yuan looked at the many Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns. “I've made a breakthrough. I should be no weaker than Fuxu Heavenly Sovereign.”
The moment he said this—
Red Flame and the other Liyang Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns were shocked.
No weaker than Fuxu?
Did that mean he’d reached the level of the strongest Heavenly Sovereigns?
Had Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign already stepped into that realm?
It was unbelievable.
If Milky Way could one day grow his ancestral bloodline to the peak of the Heavenly Sovereign tier, then yes, reaching that level was possible.
But how long had it been since Lin Yuan became a Heavenly Sovereign?
Though they found it hard to comprehend, they chose to believe him after seeing the expression on Lin Yuan’s face.
“Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign, why don’t you wait for me? While I may not be Fuxu’s match, I have many ancestral killing tools. I can at least hold him off,” Red Flame Heavenly Sovereign immediately offered.
If Lin Yuan truly wasn't weaker than Fuxu, then with the Liyang Kingdom going all out, they might just have a chance at taking that pillar.
“No need.”
Lin Yuan declined without hesitation.
Though this breakthrough had rekindled his desire to reclaim the pillar and wash away his past humiliation, there was no reason to risk the Liyang Kingdom’s ultimate trump cards—they would be needed in the final, decisive phase of the treasure land conflict.
“Alright.”
Red Flame Heavenly Sovereign nodded, not pressing the issue.
He trusted Lin Yuan knew what he was doing.
Outside the colossal core pillar—
The world’s energy swirled like a mire, and black and white qi spiraled. From a height of billions of miles, one would see a massive black-and-white Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram forming with the pillar at its center.
The Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns of Grand Ancient Void were breathless. Their expressions grew grave as they stared at Lin Yuan like they were facing a mortal threat.
Their instincts as powerhouses screamed that this young man was terrifying—standing there without releasing a single wisp of aura, yet still making them all tremble.
What level of power was this?
“Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign? He’s from the Liyang Kingdom?”
One of the Grand Ancient Void Heavenly Sovereigns recognized Lin Yuan. In fact, the others had as well, but none had the time to think deeper.
“Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign, you’d best leave now. This is Grand Ancient Void territory.”
Vuyu Heavenly Sovereign said in a deep voice, keeping most of his focus on the surroundings. He suspected Milky Way wouldn’t show up here without some backup. Perhaps the other top-tier Liyang Heavenly Sovereigns were hiding nearby?
Maybe that terrifying pressure was coming from them?
“Is that so?”
Lin Yuan looked at the towering core pillar and smiled faintly. “If you hand over this pillar now, you may live.”
“Hand over the pillar?”
Vuyu Heavenly Sovereign stared at Lin Yuan.
Grand Ancient Void had always been the one issuing such ultimatums to others. Since when did the Liyang Kingdom dare speak like this?
“Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign, let me deal with you.”
At that moment, Vuyun Heavenly Sovereign strode forward, eyes cold as he faced Lin Yuan.
Vuyun was a top-tier Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign of Grand Ancient Void, and his strength had once rivaled Lin Yuan’s before his recent breakthrough.
Rumble—
Around Vuyun, time and space transformed into drifting clouds, surging toward Lin Yuan.
This was his signature move: clouds that would corrode the enemy. Even those of the same tier would be suppressed under this attack.
Vuyu and the others simply watched. None moved to help.
From their perspective, if Milky Way dared show up here, he must have backup—likely from other Liyang Heavenly Sovereigns hidden nearby.
To deal with Milky Way, Vuyun was enough. Their job was to guard against the rest.
“Did Red Flame and the others already deploy the ancestral killing tools?” Vuyu wondered, growing even more cautious.
Normally, these trump cards were saved for the very end.
First, because they were final killing moves to be used in decisive moments.
Second, they were incredibly rare and precious—once used, they were gone.
But who knew what the Liyang Kingdom was planning? If they were already using such tools now, Vuyu had to consider the worst.
“Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign, I’ve long wanted to test you.”
Vuyun manipulated the vast clouds, preparing to crush Lin Yuan.
This move was designed specifically for powerhouses of the same tier—suppress with clouds, then corrode.
Except—
“Hm?”
Vuyun suddenly found his vision empty and void. Only black and white Yin-Yang forces remained, crashing toward him with such terrifying might that he despaired.
“No—!”
Before he could react, his body, soul, and will all disintegrated in an instant.
Whoosh.
Lin Yuan raised his hand and casually collected Vuyun’s weapon.
Silence.
Vuyun’s fall stunned all the Grand Ancient Void Heavenly Sovereigns into silence.
Even if it was only a battle-body that died—not his true self—it was enough to send chills down their spines.
After retrieving the weapon, Lin Yuan glanced at the spot where Vuyun last stood.
“You dare split your attention when facing me?”
That’s right. Lin Yuan had clearly sensed that even while attacking him, Vuyun had kept part of his attention on the surroundings.
Not just Vuyu, Vuyun too had believed that Liyang powerhouses were hidden nearby—so he hadn’t fully focused on Lin Yuan.
Still—
Even distracted, Vuyun had been a top-tier Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign. Being instantly killed by Lin Yuan was unbelievable.
“The Tao of Chaos Tai Chi... its first level already has this kind of power?”
Lin Yuan thought to himself. Facing the Grand Ancient Void Heavenly Sovereigns, he hadn’t held back—he used the power of Chaos Tai Chi immediately.
“This energy…”
Vuyu Heavenly Sovereign shuddered. His path involved a unique form of chaos power, allowing him to glimpse a bit of Vuyun’s death.
What he saw was two powers—one black, one white, one Yin, one Yang—entwined and clashing, crushing everything Vuyun had.
“Don’t get distracted—go all out against Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign!”
Vuyu immediately commanded the others. He now vaguely sensed that Milky Way’s confidence wasn’t from backup—it was from himself.
“Vuyun was a top-tier Ultimate Heavenly Sovereign, and yet he fell instantly? Just how powerful is this Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign?” The other Grand Ancient Void Heavenly Sovereigns were restless, though none thought of fleeing.
The core pillar was right behind them—who dared retreat?
Besides, just because Lin Yuan could kill Vuyun didn’t mean he could kill them all, especially now that they were on guard.
“How did Milky Way grow this strong?” Among the Grand Ancient Void Sovereigns, Fu Dang was especially shaken.
Back when they first entered the treasure land, Fu Dang had tried to seize a pillar discovered by Hong Lian Heavenly Sovereign, only for Lin Yuan to arrive and destroy his battle-body.
At the time, Lin Yuan had felt powerful—but not invincible.
“Form the battle formation!”
Vuyu’s voice had barely faded when the remaining ten Grand Ancient Void Heavenly Sovereigns connected their auras, strands of chaotic qi wrapping around them, integrating their power into a single great cycle.
“Hm?”
“The use of chaotic rules?”
Lin Yuan observed them.
Back in the war between Qingfen and Zimeng Domains, he had seen the ancient nations’ war machines fuse thousands or tens of thousands of cultivators' powers together.
The core reason: chaos rules governed all energy.
Now, ten Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns—five of them top-tier—were fusing their strength into one vast force.
This required power beyond even the third stage of Chaos Realm—true chaotic essence.
“Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign, take this!”
Fu Dang felt stronger than ever. United with the other four top-tier Sovereigns, he surpassed the strength of a single peer—even ordinary top-tier Sovereigns seemed weak in comparison.
“Raw strength alone…”
Lin Yuan calmly looked at Fu Dang.
He raised a single finger. Threads of black and white Tai Chi power flowed forth.
Boom!
A formless space-time barrier instantly formed around Fu Dang—a shield created by the power of the other nine.
But Lin Yuan’s finger tore through everything. The universe turned to black and white, suffused with Yin and Yang.
In a flash, the Tai Chi force pierced the barrier and obliterated Fu Dang’s body and soul.
It didn’t stop there—residual Yin-Yang force spread through unseen connections to the other nine Sovereigns.
“Not good!”
Vuyu’s expression changed. He immediately severed the link.
The four top-tier Sovereigns also cut ties in time, but the other four reacted too slowly. The Yin-Yang force consumed their bodies and souls.
In just a few breaths—
Of the eleven Grand Ancient Void Sovereigns, six had fallen. Only five remained.
“Milky Way Heavenly Sovereign… what level have you reached?” Vuyu stared at Lin Yuan, heart pounding. He had his suspicions—but dared not speak them aloud.
“Those who stand in my way die.”
Lin Yuan had no intention of wasting words. He strode toward the core pillar.
The five remaining top-tier Sovereigns exchanged looks. Their auras once again merged.
“Stop him.”
Vuyu gritted his teeth. His power boiled—he was unleashing deadly forbidden techniques.
The other four followed suit. The core pillar wasn’t just a resource—it was Grand Ancient Void’s pride and dignity.
Letting an outsider seize it under their watch would be a devastating blow to their pride.
Boom boom boom!
The five top-tier Ultimate Heavenly Sovereigns attacked Lin Yuan with full force.
Their eyes burned with madness as they poured everything into this final stand. The Dao itself retreated. Space-time collapsed into black holes. No rules remained.
Lin Yuan frowned slightly and halted.
Five top-tier Sovereigns fighting for their lives—he couldn’t ignore that.
Especially since their deadly techniques, drawn from the ancient Grand Ancient Void nation, were terrifyingly powerful.
One breath later—
One Sovereign was smashed apart by Lin Yuan’s palm.
Half a breath later—
Another was crushed under his foot.
In just three or four breaths—
All five top-tier Sovereigns were annihilated, one by one.
And just then, Lin Yuan arrived at the colossal core pillar.
Before this moment—
All who stood in Milky Way’s path had been reduced to dust.
