Chapter 599: Could It Be?

Heh heh, War Mad Song?

The Ancient God King looked at War Mad Song, a hint of mockery and disdain flashing in his eyes:

Just you alone, you think you can block us?

The Devouring Demon Emperor smiled bitterly:

Ye Zhengrong is also foolish, having left only you to guard. Today, your death is beyond doubt!

The Evil Demon Emperor licked his lips, his eyes filled with bloodthirsty excitement:

War Mad Song, I hear you are renowned across the Nine Heavens Ten Lands. Today, I'll test your mettle!

The Three Ghost Venerable said nothing, but the six eyes on the three heads stared intently at War Mad Song, exuding a strange aura of death.

War Mad Song inhaled deeply, saying nothing.

He knew that speaking now was useless.

There is only one battle!

However—

Grand Void Emperor never gave War Mad Song any regard.

He didn't even glance at War Mad Song, merely said lightly:

Stop him.

The words fell—

The four Great War Generals of God, Demon, Beast, and Ghost all struck at once!

Boom—!!!

Four terrifying attacks instantly enveloped War Mad Song!

War Mad Song roared, unleashed his full power, battling the Four Great War Generals in a tangled melee!

Meanwhile, Grand Void Emperor shifted his form and rushed into the Dongfu first!

Lord—!!!

War Mad Song, seeing this, eyes widening, let out a heart‑rending, long howl:

Lord, be careful! Enemy attack!

He frantically tried to rush forward to stop Grand Void Emperor, but could the Four Great War Generals let him succeed?

Heh heh, trying to leave?

The Ancient God King sneered, slapping down with a palm, sending War Mad Song reeling!

War Mad Song coughed up blood, his body badly wounded!

Yet he still stared fixedly toward the Dongfu, his eyes full of anxiety and despair!

…

Inside the Dongfu.

Grand Void Emperor's form pressed deeper.

Soon, he found the final layer of defensive array protecting Ye Zhengrong's seclusion!

It was a Supreme Guardian Array set up personally by Ye Zhengrong, its light swirling, runes flashing, exuding an indestructible defensive aura.

Hmph!

Grand Void Emperor let out a cold snort, without hesitation, striking directly!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

He hammered the array with all his might!

Each strike made the array quake violently, its light flickering erratically!

Although this array was laid by Ye Zhengrong himself, under the full-force onslaught of Grand Void Emperor at the Peak of Giant Supremacy—

its destruction was only a matter of time!

Outside the Dongfu.

War Mad Song sensed the array's violent fluctuations, his heart racing with even greater anxiety!

He desperately tried to break free from the Four Great War Generals' siege, to rush in and protect his lord!

But the Four Great War Generals clung to him tightly, giving him no chance at all!

Puff—!

War Mad Song's body, under the four's assault, finally exploded with a thunderous blast!

Countless flesh fragments scattered in all directions!

But the next moment—

Those flesh fragments struggled to reconvene, reforming once more into War Mad Song's shape!

Only his aura had withered to the extreme!

It's over…

A thread of despair rose in War Mad Song's heart.

He knew he had already given his all.

But his lord…

At this hair‑trigger moment—

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three roars burst forth, suddenly exploding!

Hmph! How audacious!

You scoundrel! What kind of skill is it to bully the few with the many?!

"You're looking for death!"

Three terrifying Dark Shadows suddenly descended from the sky!

It was War Mad Song who, at the first moment, sent a secret message and rushed here urgently—

Ye Zhengrong and the other three War Generals!

Battle Saint Emperor, Battle General!

Ba Shen Zhenyi, Eight General!

Huang Tian Divine Emperor—Huangfu Huang, Huang General!

Three peak-level Dao Ancestor Realm masters descended together!

"War Mad Song, hold on!"

Huangfu Huang roared, struck first, and slapped a palm toward the Ancient God King!

Battle Saint Emperor and Ba Shen Zhenyi each faced the Devouring Demon Emperor and the Evil Demon Emperor!

War Mad Song's pressure instantly lessened!

He gasped heavily, looked at the three comrades, his eyes full of gratitude and lingering fear:

"You... finally came..."

However—

Just then!

"Boom—!!!"

A earth-shaking roar erupted from deep within the Dongfu!

The great array guarding Ye Zhengrong's seclusion could no longer endure the Grand Void Emperor's relentless bombardment and exploded with a thunderous blast!

Countless formation fragments scattered in all directions!

The Four Great War Generals all turned pale!

"Lord—!!!"

They were extremely anxious, wanting to rush in!

But the four great War Generals of God, Demon, Monster, and Ghost now entangled them!

"Hehe, trying to leave?"

The Ancient God King sneered:

"Too late!"

War Mad Song, Huangfu Huang, Battle Saint Emperor, and Ba Shen Zhenyi, though burning with impatience, were tightly bound by their opponents and could not break free!

They could only watch helplessly as, after the array shattered, the Grand Void Emperor's figure strode into the deepest part of the Dongfu!

…

The deepest part of the Dongfu.

The Grand Void Emperor's figure suddenly halted.

His gaze fell ahead—

There, an immensely majestic, towering middle-aged man's Dark Shadow sat cross-legged at the center of the Dongfu.

He seemed to be seated there, yet in reality it was as if he sat at the very center of the entire Zhutian Wanjie!

His aura was steady and profound, as if containing the boundless mysteries of the Zhutian cosmos and the Wan Gu Lun Hui.

He appeared with no sign of his seclusion being forcibly disturbed, instead exuding extreme calm, composure, and transcendence!

It was—

Ye Zhengrong!

The Grand Void Emperor's expression changed slightly the instant he saw Ye Zhengrong.

He had thought that forcibly breaking the array would cause Ye Zhengrong to be backfired upon, his aura chaotic, and to go mad.

But the scene before him…

Ye Zhengrong's condition was as good as it could possibly be!

"Hehe…"

The Grand Void Emperor suppressed a hint of unease, his face still bearing a composed, cold smile:

"Ye Zhengrong, didn't expect that, did you?"

"I, the True Self, could find this place…"

Ye Zhengrong slowly opened his eyes.

Those eyes were as deep as the starry sky, as calm as an ancient well, within which the sun, moon, stars, mountains, and rivers seemed to flow slowly.

He looked at the Grand Void Emperor, the corner of his mouth lifting slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Within that smile, there was no surprise, no anger, no fear.

Only one—

the composure of mastering the whole situation.

"Xuan Yuan Taixu…"

Ye Zhengrong slowly spoke, his voice plain yet imbued with supreme authority:

"Originally, now the Darkness of All Heavens descends, the Ultimate Campaign is about to commence, and I, the True Self, have no intention of seeking you."

He paused, then slowly rose:

"Didn't expect you to come knocking on your own."

As he rose—

A terrifying aura suddenly burst out from him, covering the heavens and earth!

That aura, like the Zhutian cosmos, was vast, towering, unfathomably deep!

Wherever he passed, the Void trembled, the laws wailed, as if even this world could not bear his Dark Being!

He crushed the Nine Heavens Ten Lands, shaking the Wan Gu Lun Hui!

The Grand Void Emperor's complexion changed abruptly!

His ever-calm, composed cold smile froze in an instant!

For the first time, his eyes revealed a startled, uncertain expression!

"You… have you already… reached that step?!"

His voice was tinged with a slight tremor!

Ye Zhengrong gave him no answer.

He merely—gave a faint smile.

Then—

He struck!
