Eternal Holy Emperor-Chapter 1517 - 1353: Surprise Attack!

"In the Sealing Universe, who else is being imprisoned in the Forbidden Soul Hall?" Ye Chen inquired.

The Wind King displayed a list of young prodigies, all former young Heavenly Prides with at least the potential of a king, and they had all reached the Heavenly King Realm.

For the Sealing Universe, those who do not reach the Heavenly King Realm cannot set foot on the road, as reincarnation on the Ultimate Ancient Road is too dangerous, whereas other Ancient Universes are not so concerned with this.

Having obtained relevant useful information, Ye Chen instructed the Wind King to continue feigning imprisonment for a while longer. The time was not yet right, but he would personally rescue him in the near future.

He then cast a spell, reversing the Magic Array of five Soul-devouring Divine Chains, instead nurturing them backward to nourish the dried-up Divine Body of the Wind King.

Moreover, he ensured the Divine Soul Chains worked similarly, gradually pushing the Wind King back toward his former Peak State, while leaving a Divine Soul Mark on him to prevent any unnecessary accidents.

After finishing all this, Ye Chen departed, subtly infiltrating several Divine Palaces as he went and discreetly releasing the seals on several young prodigies of the Sealing Universe, similar to what he had done for the Wind King.

Upon completing all this, Ye Chen returned to his own Forbidden Soul Prison, waiting for an opportune moment.

Though he could essentially rescue several people at any time, he did not wish to alert the enemy prematurely.

Furthermore, he found the Forbidden Soul Hall very peculiar, not only imprisoning numerous powerful entities and even young prodigies, strongest heroes, but the divine chains were equally unusual, capable of extracting the Original Soul Power from Physical Bodies, Primordial Spirits, and Divine Souls, all ultimately disappearing without anyone knowing where.

This all seemed to be part of some terrible conspiracy, filling him with suspicion and caution.

He refrained from reverse exploration, sensing that doing so would truly alert the enemy, thus becoming unfavorable.

Additionally, knowing the women were not imprisoned in the Forbidden Soul Hall, his heart was much more settled, thus not in a hurry to leave, instead choosing to wait while secretly investigating the background of the Forbidden Soul Hall.

During this time, he began slowly reversing the divine chains on many powerful entities imprisoned in various Forbidden Soul Halls, nurturing their weakened Forms and Spirits, and conveying messages instructing these cultivators not to act rashly, promising to rescue everyone at once once a suitable opportunity arose.

The many imprisoned strong entities were naturally not fools, understanding Ye Chen's intent to act once an opportune moment arrived, increasing the chances of escape manyfold.

Thus, in the Forbidden Soul Hall, half a month quickly passed for Ye Chen.

On this day, mighty waves emerged within the Forbidden Soul Mountain Range, as powerful entities from the outside world broke in.

Through the eyes of controlled Forbidden Soul Hall entities, Ye Chen could see endless eldritch mist being breached in the Forbidden Soul Mountain Range, as enormous divine ships broke out, slowly docking in the void, powerful and terrifying figures arriving, appearing very ancient yet their Qi Mechanisms seemed extraordinarily formidable.

These were truly powerful old immortals, desiring to trade with the Forbidden Soul Hall for the flesh and blood of the strongest heroes from various Ancient Universes, wishing thereby to achieve rebirth.

Numerous Forbidden Soul Envoys of high status appeared, personally welcoming these seven old immortals and leading them into various Forbidden Soul Halls to seek transactions of flesh from the strongest heroes of various Ancient Universes.

In the Forbidden Soul Hall where Ye Chen was, old immortals similarly appeared, accompanied by Forbidden Soul Hall entities.

When the sparse-haired, dry-skinned old immortal akin to tree bark arrived before Ye Chen, he closely scrutinized Ye Chen in the Forbidden Soul Prison for a long time, then shook his head, saying, "Only at the Saintly Treasure Realm, though soon to contest in reincarnation, still far from it. Unexpected this Forbidden Soul Hall also captured you."

The Forbidden Soul Hall entity spoke, "Esteemed elder, you do not know him yet. He is also one of the strongest heroes. When we captured him, the effort was enormous, requiring six Saintly Treasure Peak Level Forbidden Soul Envoys to go, yet still nearly failing, with one envoy's body being destroyed in the process before finally capturing him. One could say, he is certainly an excellent Treasure Body, with sufficiently vigorous Blood Qi. Esteemed elder, you are near your life limit, but should you inhabit it, your ability to surpass reincarnation will be no more than a century away, enough for reincarnation. And if you surpass reincarnation, perhaps that abundant longevity will directly enhance your Divine Soul through the Physical Body. Wouldn't that be even better for you?"

Hearing this, the old immortal also found some reason in it. If truly surpassing reincarnation with this body, he might very likely regain that vast Heavenly King longevity obtained beyond reincarnation, which would rejuvenate his nearly decayed Divine Soul, further advancing his hope of progressing to the Daoist Peak one day.

Just the thought of it excited him.

"Alright, this body, the old man wants it. Quickly release it and exchange the flesh with me." The old immortal spoke almost impatiently, hoping to swiftly enter this vibrant flesh to become invigorated, his Divine Soul strengthened anew.

"Please wait, esteemed elder, we'll process it right away." The Forbidden Soul Hall entity naturally dared not dawdle, quickly opening the Forbidden Soul Prison door, preparing to escort the imprisoned Ye Chen out, extracting his Divine Soul.

Swish—

But at this moment, Ye Chen, seated in the Forbidden Soul Prison, suddenly opened his eyes, those eyes bright and piercing, an intimidating Qi Mechanism gently emanating from him.

"So terrifying!"

Even the Forbidden Soul Hall entity and the old immortal were secretly shocked, clearly just a young prodigy at the Saintly Treasure Absolute Peak, yet why was the Qi Mechanism so incredibly formidable.

"A jailed captive dares to resist?" The Forbidden Soul Hall entity scoffed, immediately controlling five Soul-devouring Divine Chains to act on Ye Chen, seeking to fully restrain him, and in the Forbidden Soul Prison, special Divine Soul Chains flew out, charging toward his brow to bind the Primordial Spirit. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Boom—

Suddenly, outside, the most dreadful Dao Waves occurred, unknowably intense, causing the entire Ancient City, Cosmic Sky City to tremble.

In the sky, there surged mighty Divine Light, billowing, howling, reaching out to the Six Harmonies and Eight Desolates, shaking the ancient land.
