Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

Driven by the divine power, the might of the Buddhas' World Suppression became incredibly terrifying, as if it would make the very heavens and earth collapse.

Fa Zhao and Fa Ming were both quite excited.

'Lord Shakyamuni's presence is as magnificent as ever!'

After all, the Buddhas' World Suppression was an extremely difficult Secret Technique to cultivate in their Sacred Temple, yet Lord Shakyamuni had already mastered it to perfection. How could they not be in awe of his grand display?

'Under the might of this powerful Secret Technique, Ye Chen will be annihilated. There's no way he'll have any strength left to resist!'

BOOM!

However, just as the countless golden characters formed from scriptures were about to descend upon him, Ye Chen remained calm and suddenly summoned the Chaos Suppression Cauldron!

At this moment, he stopped holding back and directly played his trump card!

The moment the Chaos Suppression Cauldron was deployed, it erupted with immeasurable might. A boundless Power of Chaos spread out, directly shattering all the flickering golden characters around it.

Under the influence of the Power of Chaos, the phantom images of the Buddhas also began to turn illusory.

"This is..."

Lord Shakyamuni was taken aback, and a strange glint appeared in his eyes as he looked at the Chaos Suppression Cauldron.

'With my perception, I can tell at a glance that this great cauldron Ye Chen has summoned is an astonishing secret treasure.'

'But even I can't easily discern just how powerful this secret treasure is.'

'I can only feel an immense threat from the Chaotic Qi Flow surging from the great cauldron!'

"Such a treasure is wasted in your hands, like a pearl gathering dust."

"If you hand it over obediently, I can grant you a more dignified death."

Lord Shakyamuni spoke slowly. At this moment, he seemed to have transformed into a towering Buddha, his voice magnificent and solemn. It was filled with an ancient, boundless aura that echoed unceasingly between heaven and earth, striking fear into all who heard it.

"You old bald-headed bastards aren't worthy of controlling this item!"

Ye Chen smiled indifferently, completely ignoring Lord Shakyamuni's stiff expression, and directly controlled the Chaos Suppression Cauldron to bear down on him.

Although the Chaos Suppression Cauldron was severely damaged and far from its Peak state, once activated, it still erupted with astonishing might, easily tearing through Lord Shakyamuni's various defensive Secret Techniques.

Its unstoppable momentum caused the expressions of all the experts present to change.

'Without a doubt, this is an incredibly powerful secret treasure!'

"Again!"

Lord Shakyamuni flicked his finger, and several more torrents of golden light, formed from divine power, shot across the sky, sweeping mightily toward the great cauldron.

But in the blink of an eye, the torrents of golden light were completely devoured by the Chaos Suppression Cauldron. Moreover, the cauldron seemed entirely unscathed, its forward momentum still incomparably swift and fierce.

'Even divine power can't affect this treasure!'

'This thing really is extraordinary!'

Lord Shakyamuni's interest in the Chaos Suppression Cauldron grew even stronger. With a shake of his arms, his body suddenly grew several meters taller, as if transforming into a small Buddha, radiating dazzling Buddhist light and exuding an overwhelming might.

Immediately after, he was seen uttering a mantra. Characters materialized and floated beside the Chaos Suppression Cauldron, seemingly trying to immobilize it.

At the same time, he reached out with both arms and grasped the Chaos Suppression Cauldron firmly, preventing it from making any further movements.

"This treasure is mine!"

Lord Shakyamuni was thrilled, feeling as though he had stumbled upon an incredible prize.

"You're dreaming!"

Ye Chen wielded the Cangming Sword, Sword Qi surging around his body, and charged toward Lord Shakyamuni.

But Lord Shakyamuni was unconcerned. He chuckled and said, "I may not be able to take you down right away, but if you think you can stop me, you're dreaming."

SWOOSH!

A scripture book suddenly flew out from his chest, hovering in mid-air before shooting out to intercept Ye Chen.

Ye Chen raised the Cangming Sword high and brought it down heavily on the scripture book.

The sound of clashing metal seemed to ring out in mid-air. The scripture book, surging with golden light, was sent flying backward by Ye Chen's strike, but it ultimately managed to block his advance.

Ye Chen directed the Ancient God Order to collide with the scripture book, but immediately after, a Zen Seal materialized and intercepted the Ancient God Order.

"I told you, this great cauldron is mine today! You can't stop me!"

Seeing Ye Chen blocked, Lord Shakyamuni couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He was just about to forcibly erase Ye Chen's Divine Soul imprint from the Chaos Suppression Cauldron.

But just then, something unexpected happened!

A cluster of blood-red flames, shaped like a lotus, suddenly shot out from within the cauldron and landed on Lord Shakyamuni's arms.

In that instant, an indescribable terror grew wildly in Lord Shakyamuni's heart!

As if he had seen something utterly terrifying, he suddenly trembled violently. His expression lost all composure as he immediately let go of the Chaos Suppression Cauldron and retreated several thousand meters back!

Although his reaction had been swift, and he had simultaneously channeled the Buddhist light around his body to try and dispel the blood-red flames...

...the blood-red flames, though seeming to flicker on the verge of extinguishing, were in fact terrifyingly tenacious. Not only did they show no signs of being dispelled, but they burned even more intensely, a searing yet sinister heatwave spreading through the air!

"Dammit!!!"

"How do you have something like this?!"

Lord Shakyamuni cried out, his aura fluctuating violently.

At this moment, all the Cultivators present were dumbfounded.

They couldn't understand why Lord Shakyamuni, who had seemed to have victory in his grasp and the situation firmly under control, would suddenly become so panicked.

'What in the world did he encounter?'

"The Red Lotus Karma Fire was born beneath the eighteen levels of hell. It possesses the most evil Power of Origin."

"It's miraculously effective against evil creatures, but I never expected it to be just as effective against you old bald-headed bastards from the Buddhist Sect!"

Ye Chen smiled.

In fact, during his exchange with Lord Shakyamuni, he had already sensed that his opponent was a formidable enemy who would be difficult to defeat. He feared that without using his many trump cards, it would be hard to suppress him.

Therefore, when he activated the Chaos Suppression Cauldron, he had secretly attached a wisp of Red Lotus Karma Fire deep within it, waiting for Lord Shakyamuni to try and forcibly seize it before suddenly unleashing it to catch him completely off guard.

The Red Lotus Karma Fire was incomparably evil by nature
