CHAPTER 999: CHAPTER 911: HUNDRED BATTLE MOUNTAIN RANGE

The Hundred Battle Mountain Range is one of the most renowned regions within the Million Mountains.

Compared to the endless ancient forests elsewhere in the Primordial Wilderness, the Hundred Battle Mountain Range seems crimson across a vast expanse, with barren lands and devoid of any vitality, full of desolation.

Naturally, in the distant ancient times, the Hundred Battle Mountain Range was once a thriving Wilderness Forest, stretching for tens of thousands of miles, with Spirit Veins nourishing the earth and filled with Spiritual Energy.

Countless Demon Beasts and Fierce Beasts occupied the area, with clusters of naturally nurtured Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, making it a sacred land of Spiritual Energy.

Later, a terrible battle occurred here, with Divine-level superpowers clashing and Principle Traces capable of obliterating worlds, causing the heavens to collapse and the earth to shatter, flattening numerous mountain ranges and breaking the Spirit Veins deep within the ground into exhaustion.

Because of this Divine battle, many powerful cultivators chose this place for confrontation, and over time, it lost its vitality, becoming a crimson stretch of land known worldwide as the Hundred Battle Mountain Range.

It is said that every desolate mountain in the Hundred Battle Mountain Range is the burial ground of a Supreme Powerhouse, and the thousand miles of crimson earth were dyed by their blood, filled with a terrifying aura of death, creating a forbidden zone.

Even Saints dare not rashly enter, for the ominous aura is something even Saints cannot completely avoid.

In ordinary times, it is absolutely a forbidden land for the world, impossible to step into, causing Saints to be immensely cautious and keep far away.

But now, someone has seen a supreme treasure emerging, disappearing into the Hundred Battle Mountain Range, accompanied by strands of Chaos Ancient Energy—an unparalleled Chaos Treasure that has stirred the hearts of people worldwide.

Even the elusive Saints could not resist and have appeared.

As a result, in just a few days, because of the Chaos Treasure, the place is no longer its usual desolate self, as one powerful individual after another from the Ancient Emperor Continent gathers here, filling the void with numerous forces.

In a safe zone far from the Hundred Battle Mountain Range, strong figures from all corners of the Human Clan Territory have arrived one after another.

There are renowned elder cultivators, leaders of sects, rulers of nations, hidden Super Experts, and promising young talents all coming forward.

Many powerful individuals have appeared, regardless of whether they are elders or youths, male or female, all are here, coveting the Chaos Treasure and eager to seize it.

However, no one dares to rashly rush into the Hundred Battle Mountain Range; countless ultimate battles and the fall of many powerhouses have made these crimson lands infamous, enveloped in an aura of blood, capable of corroding Divine Power, even disturbing one’s mind—putting it among the renowned forbidden lands of the Ancient Emperor Continent.

The various strong forces are still acting independently, not united, such that even Saint Master Level powerhouses are extremely cautious when entering alone.

Therefore, the strong individuals have unanimously decided to jointly enter the Hundred Battle Mountain Range after three days, to resist the ominous aura together, while the ownership of the Chaos Treasure would depend on their merit.

Ye Chen arrived and observed the situation in the Mountain Range from afar, his expression somewhat peculiar, yet he did not enter, instead remaining seated on a distant mountain near the area where others gathered, silently meditating.

He exudes no notable Principle Fluctuation, so nobody pays much attention to him.

During these days, some self-proclaimed powerful figures, upon arrival, immediately rushed into the Hundred Battle Mountain Range, hoping to seize early advantage and snatch the Chaos Treasure, but they vanished without return, including a strong Semi-Saint.

To this, the various powerful individuals merely sneer; even Saints and Saint Masters wait, so a mere Semi-Saint wishes to rush in alone—isn’t it simply courting death?

Over these three days, the situation grows increasingly intense, with more strong figures continuously arriving from all corners of the Human Clan Territory.

Hum—

In the sky, a massive Space Gate suddenly appears, with intricate and mysterious spatial Dao Trace etched upon its structure, opening into an unknown and mysterious place.

Some Great Divine Power cultivators or forces spared no expense, opening the Space Gate for long-distance transmission.

A massive warship appears, stretching a thousand yards, its majestic hull overshadowing the sky, casting a vast shadow below.

Aboard the warship stand numerous figures, all Mystic Armor Warriors armed to the teeth, a frightening Forbidden Army.

A huge battle flag waves in the wind above the warship, an ancient script rumored to be from the Era of Gods inscribed upon it, representing the character ’Xiang.’

This signifies Xiang Country, one of the 36 empires.

On a distant mountain peak, Ye Chen sits cross-legged, his eyes slightly opened, squinting to glance at Xiang Country’s warship, sensing powerful auras surging forth, including a Saint Master’s formidable presence.

Complicated but not intimidated.

Not long after, another Space Gate opens in the sky, issuing a terrifying roar that shakes the heavens and earth.

An ancient war chariot appears, rumbling downward to this location, its Combat Energy soaring high, concealing a dreadful Super Expert.

That is the war chariot of Hua Country, also part of the 36 empires, with two formidable individuals visible behind, both claiming their strength in the Saint Realm.

"Hua Sword Saint, I didn’t expect you would arrive so quickly!"

Another Space Gate opens, a voice laughing heartily extends, as a war chariot appears, a Silver Armored War Chariot, projecting an imposing and sharp presence, driven by an imposing Chariot Beast, a Saint Level Demon Flood Dragon with a vast physique.

The war chariot roars mightily, emanating torrents of Combat Energy, seemingly tearing the heavens and earth, striking fear even into Saints who feel their bodies seemingly split apart, causing them to retreat and avoid getting too close.

It’s evident just how supreme the existence within that Silver Armored War Chariot is.

Soon, one after another, Space Gates open, undoubtedly most are Super Experts from the 36 empires arriving, for that kind of force has the wealth to open Space Gates for distant transmission, as the further the distance, the higher the cost.

Often the cost amounts to tens of thousands of pounds of Spirit Stones.

The crowd here changes color, as the more forces arrive, the lesser their chances of seizing the Chaos Treasure.

But there’s no way around it, as these are the true reigning supreme forces that dominate the world’s fate, classified as Overlords of the realms, with frightening foundations, making them not easily offended.

Of course, not all forces from the 36 empires and the Seventy-two Ancient Countries could arrive; some empires were too distant, some ancient countries knew of the 36 empires’ involvement, understanding their difficulty in seizing the treasure, therefore only a small portion of empire and ancient country forces actually arrived.

Yet the number of powerful individuals remains considerably large.
