After the Lord of Remnants issued the bounty, nearly ten Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers crossed the closing cosmic barrier and charged towards Ye Ling.
The terrifying pressure of the Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers descended from the heavens. The vast Earth could not withstand such might. Its surface cracked, and powerful earthquakes occurred globally. Tall buildings in major cities collapsed in an instant, as if the end of the world had arrived!
Ye Ling was entirely focused on mending the heavens at this moment. He was so preoccupied that he couldn't even spare a thought for the beings on Earth, let alone the Great Dao Ancestors and Chaos Rulers charging at him!
Boom!
The suppression from the cosmic barrier arrived as expected. The Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers were immediately subjected to immense pressure, their auras plummeting.
However, the cosmic barrier was not as formidable as it once was. The Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers could still resist it somewhat, holding on for a short period.
And that short period was enough for them to kill Ye Ling countless times!
Screech!
Chains imbued with the Devouring Domain materialized out of thin air and lunged towards the Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers, attempting to impede their progress.
"A petty trick, daring to stop this seat?"
A red-haired old ancestor easily seized Ye Ling's dark chains. With a forceful squeeze, the chains, containing the Devouring Domain, shattered abruptly!
Ye Ling suffered a backlash, his throat felt sweet, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale!
The other powerful beings had no intention of giving Ye Ling any opportunities. After the black chains were broken, they scrambled to attack Ye Ling, eager to claim his head!
To them, Ye Ling was now a walking Great Dao Heart!
In the blink of an eye, the red-haired old ancestor who had shattered Ye Ling's chains arrived before him. He reached out to grab Ye Ling and sneered, "Brat, your life is mine!"
Facing the terrifying pressure of this Great Dao Immortal Lord, Ye Ling found it incredibly difficult to even move. He could only watch helplessly as the red-haired old ancestor attacked him.
This is bad!
Knowing he was unlikely to escape death, Ye Ling immediately activated the Samsara Great Dao, transmitting his Samsara information to Ye You, hoping to preserve his life for future revenge.
However, before the red-haired old ancestor could touch Ye Ling, a colossal luminous axe tore through the void and smashed down from the heavens onto the old ancestor's head, sending him plummeting!
The vast Earth was literally pierced through with a massive hole!
"Ye Ling is mine!"
A Chaos Ruler, wielding a giant axe, charged from behind and hurled his axe at Ye Ling!
Ye Ling, just as he had faced the red-haired old ancestor, could only watch helplessly as the giant axe was thrown at him.
The gap in their realms was too immense. No matter how much of a genius Ye Ling was, facing such a formidable enemy, especially while heavily injured, he possessed no ability to resist!
Ye Ling's eyes could track the trajectory of the giant axe, but his body could not keep up at all!
Fortunately, this giant axe was also knocked away by other Great Dao Immortal Lords, and Ye Ling narrowly escaped death again.
"Who dares to stop me?" The Chaos Ruler who had thrown the axe, seeing his weapon struck down, became furious. He roared angrily, his voice almost deafening people on the other side of the Earth!
"I want Ye Ling's head." Another white-robed swordsman emerged, drawing his sword and thrusting it towards Ye Ling.
The sword light flashed past, and a red dot appeared on Ye Ling's brow.
The sword light pierced Ye Ling's head, threatening to shred his brain. However, another green light descended from the heavens, enveloping Ye Ling and forcefully preserving his life.
A fairy in green, holding a guqin, arrived gracefully. She spoke in a voice more melodious than tinkling silver, "Fellow Daoists, please grant this humble one Ye Ling's life."
Instantly, the entire Earth was enthralled.
Every individual present was a supreme being renowned throughout the outer realms, a ruler who suppressed an entire domain.
With a casual remark, they could extinguish the lives of billions. Not just Earth, but the entire universe within their domain could be annihilated with a flick of their fingers!
Yet, these Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers, with their exalted status and supreme power in the outer realms, were now confronting each other over Ye Ling.
After all, there was only one Great Dao Heart, and nine Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers had intruded into the inner domain this time.
None of them could stand idly by and let another take Ye Ling's life and claim the Great Dao Heart.
Seeing the Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers begin to confront each other, Ye Ling ignored them and focused on mending the cosmic barrier with all his might.
With Ye Ling's efforts, the cosmic barrier was completely repaired, preventing any more cultivators from the outer realms from entering.
However, Ye Ling was still helpless against the nine Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers present.
The entire Earth trembled under their oppressive aura.
The World-Ending Spirit Fire glanced at the Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers and scoffed, "A bunch of fools. You should have killed this kid first before discussing rewards. If you dally any longer, the cosmic barrier's suppression will kick in, and you'll all regret it."
Ye Ling shot a glance at the World-Ending Spirit Fire and whispered, "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
"Tch!" The World-Ending Spirit Fire responded disdainfully but truly fell silent, becoming completely quiet.
After the World-Ending Spirit Fire quieted down, Ye Ling was not idle. While the extraterrestrial powerhouses were in confrontation, he swiftly activated the Samsara Great Dao to heal his injuries.
Ye Ling's shattered bones healed at a visible rate, and his aura gradually stabilized.
One of the Great Dao Immortal Lords felt the cosmic barrier's suppression intensifying and his expression shifted slightly. He quickly said, "Everyone, I believe we should kill Ye Ling first before discussing the ownership of the Great Dao Heart. The cosmic barrier's suppression effect is already manifesting. If we delay further, none of us will benefit!"
The others also realized that maintaining their peak state was becoming difficult. Knowing that continuing to confront each other would only turn them from hunters into prey, they all agreed with the Great Dao Immortal Lord's suggestion and said in unison, "Agreed! Let's attack together and blast Ye Ling to smithereens!"
With that, the Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers gathered their power, preparing to obliterate Ye Ling into dust!
"These bastards!"
Seeing that the extraterrestrial powerhouses had reached an agreement, Ye Ling had no intention of waiting to die in place. He unhesitatingly fled into the distance.
All he needed now was to stall for time to regain the initiative!
In the blink of an eye, Ye Ling flew off Earth and vanished into the depths of space.
The nine Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers watched the fleeing Ye Ling. They had no intention of pursuing him immediately, instead focusing on accumulating their killing moves.
In their eyes, Ye Ling was merely at the Supreme realm. Even if he fled to the other end of the universe, they could obliterate him in an instant with a combined effort!
"Three, two, one... attack!"
As one Great Dao Immortal Lord spoke, the others unleashed their killing moves simultaneously. Multicolored lights tore through the void, pursuing Ye Ling.
Space shattered!
At this moment, the cosmic barrier's suppression took full effect, reducing the cultivation of the Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers to the Supreme realm!
Although their launched attacks were also suppressed by ninety percent of their power by the cosmic barrier, it was the combined attack of nine Great Dao Immortal Lords and Chaos Rulers. Even with only ten percent of their original power, no one could withstand it!
Sensing the terrifying energy rapidly approaching from behind, the World-Ending Spirit Fire urgently shouted to Ye Ling, "Kid, stop running! You can't escape! Turn back and fight! I don't want to die here!"
"I know!"
Ye Ling replied loudly, quickly calculating the distance between himself and Earth. Confirming that his engagement here would not affect Earth, he then turned and formed seals.
"Rune Forbidden Domain!"
Ye Ling fully activated his runes. A large number of white runes converged before him, forming a rune barrier!
A seven-colored beam of light broke through the void from afar and slammed fiercely onto the rune formation!
A black singularity appeared at the point of collision, followed by a dazzling white light that spread outwards.
The entire universe instantly fell silent, all beings enveloped by the white light!
The universe seemed to be erased. The world became utterly quiet.
