Ye Feng descended with numerous Saints before Ye Ling, confronting him.
Ye Ling glanced at the vast expanse of gods and Buddhas filling the sky, his gaze finally settling on Ye Feng. He chuckled, "What a grand spectacle. You must have prepared for this moment for a very long time, haven't you?"
Ye Feng smiled faintly, "Ever since my last defeat at your hands, I have been waiting for this day, longing to avenge myself and wash away the past humiliation."
"These gods and Buddhas filling the heavens are my gift to you."
"During this time, I have continuously sought inheritances and absorbed the essence of heaven and earth. My strength has undergone earth-shattering changes!"
"Ye Ling, the me of today is no longer the me of yesterday. Even if you are a supreme being from the Eastern Xuan Continent, you will still be my defeated foe!"
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Ye Ling merely shook his head and smiled, "It seems you've put a great deal of effort into investigating my background. You even know I'm from the Eastern Xuan Continent."
If it were before, Ye Ling might have been surprised that Ye Feng had discovered his origin from the Eastern Xuan Continent. However, now, Ye Ling had already clashed with the remnant alien evil race several times, and the number of Supreme Immortals he had killed was in the double digits.
As for Ye Feng, he had only just stepped into the Supreme realm from the Emperor realm. It could be said he hadn't even left the beginner's village.
Although Ye Feng's talent was truly terrifying, being able to ascend from Saint to Supreme in such a short time, Ye Feng, in his current state, no longer caught Ye Ling's eye.
Ye Feng, however, could not discern Ye Ling's cultivation. He sneered at Ye Ling, "My understanding of you extends far beyond just the Eastern Xuan Continent. Like you, I am a successor of the Creation God. The techniques you know, I know as well."
With that, Ye Feng slightly raised his hand, and a rune condensed in his palm, surging with terrifying power.
Although this rune was not yet complete, it already possessed its form and could exert considerable power.
It was evident that Ye Feng had also dedicated significant effort to the path of runes.
Seeing the black rune appear in Ye Feng's palm, a flicker of surprise flashed in Ye Ling's eyes. He sighed, "I didn't expect you to know runes as well. I truly underestimated you."
Ye Feng crushed the rune in his hand and sneered at Ye Ling, "I am no longer the person I once was. My power surpasses your imagination!"
Ye Feng was unaware of what Ye Ling had experienced during this period.
After inheriting the Creation legacy and breaking through to the Supreme realm, he had been meticulously planning his revenge against Ye Ling.
Even the continuous attacks on the Demon Palace by the Saints of the Immortal Realm while Ye Ling was unconscious were orchestrated by him. His goal was to weaken the Demon Palace's influence in the Three Realms, thereby enabling him to rally all the gods.
Now that the time was ripe, Ye Feng descended with all the power he had accumulated in the Immortal Realm, attempting to use the full might of the Shadow Hall to annihilate the Demon Palace in one fell swoop!
However, once he displayed his supreme power before all the immortals, he would become the co-lord of the Three Realms!
Ye Feng stared at Ye Ling and continued, "The thing I regret most was letting you escape alive when I annihilated your Ye family, allowing you to steal sixty thousand years of time on the Eastern Xuan Continent..."
"This time, when I destroy your Demon Palace, I will not repeat my mistake. I want to witness your soul scatter into oblivion with my own eyes."
As Ye Feng uttered these words, Ye Ling's expression gradually turned cold, and the smile on his lips slowly vanished.
Ye Ling said faintly, "You truly know how to hit a sore spot, don't you... Before, I still considered us both inheritors of the Creation legacy, and pitiful beings targeted by extraterrestrial forces. I didn't hunt you down relentlessly, giving you a chance to be reborn and reincarnated..."
"Now, it seems you deserve to die!"
As Ye Ling's voice fell, his entire aura erupted, crushing down upon Ye Feng with immense force!
Ye Feng felt an unimaginable pressure bearing down on his shoulders, his body unable to support it. His legs buckled violently!
*Bang!*
Ye Feng, in front of everyone, knelt down!
"This!!!"
The gods and Buddhas filling the sky, as well as the more than ten Saints behind Ye Feng, were all stunned in place.
"No, it's impossible..." Ye Feng's face was filled with disbelief. He braced himself against the ground with both hands, veins bulging, trying to withstand Ye Ling's oppressive aura and stand up again.
But the pressure Ye Ling exerted on him was like a majestic mountain, making it impossible for him to resist!
Ye Ling looked indifferently at Ye Feng, who was kneeling before him, and said, "Perhaps you are a once-in-a-million-years prodigy on this Earth. A hundred years ago, you were just a minor cultivator of some rank. Now, you are already a Supreme being unparalleled in the Three Realms. Your cultivation speed even surpasses mine."
"I must admit, your talent, your character, your opportunities... all are of the highest caliber. It's no wonder Zhang Xiao Ling resurrected you and chose you as a candidate guardian... It's a pity, you chose the wrong opponent."
"No, impossible... How can you be so strong? Have you broken through to Supreme?" Hearing Ye Ling's words, Ye Feng trembled all over, unable to accept this fact.
He never imagined that Ye Ling's cultivation speed would actually surpass his own!
"I don't believe it... I refuse to accept my fate!!!"
"Rise for me, aaaaahhhhh!"
Ye Feng roared upwards, his voice reaching the heavens, and his violent spiritual energy swept outwards!
The surrounding Saints were sent flying by his explosive aura, and the gods in the clouds were tossed about unevenly!
A large number of runes condensed around Ye Feng, each rune surging with a heart-palpitating power, shocking all the gods.
*Crack!!!*
The ground began to shatter, and cracks appeared in the sky.
The Earth could no longer withstand the power Ye Feng was unleashing.
Ye Feng, using the power of the runes, withstood Ye Ling's pressure and slowly stood up under the astonished gazes of all the gods.
Gales raged, and thunder roared. Ye Feng, at this moment, appeared as the sole God of War between heaven and earth!
The gods in the sky stared at Ye Feng on the ground with shock, exclaiming, "Is this Ye Feng's full power? What a terrifying aura!"
"It's likely that only Ye Ling in the Three Realms can be his opponent!"
"Ye Feng and Ye Ling... the twin titans of this era! With these two in the Three Realms, the Saints will never have a chance to emerge!"
The gods and Buddhas marveled. The power of both Ye Ling and Ye Feng surpassed the limits of what the gods could imagine!
While this appeared to be a battlefield of the gods, in reality, only Ye Ling and Ye Feng were qualified to participate in the battle!
The Blood Lotus Mystic Maiden behind Ye Ling, sensing the aura Ye Feng was unleashing, also felt boundless fear in her eyes. She instinctively retreated, her heart filled with despair.
She had never felt such terrifying power!
"Ye Feng... is actually this strong! Can His Majesty the Emperor... win?" The Blood Lotus Mystic Maiden's soul trembled, as if she foresaw Ye Ling's defeat.
After unleashing his aura, Ye Feng condensed armor around himself with runes and then twisted his neck, reveling in the abundant power coursing through his body!
He looked at Ye Ling and said coldly, "Ye Ling, I must admit, your talent makes me jealous. However, we both inherited runes. You should know that the outcome of our battle will never depend on cultivation, but on the comprehension of runes."
"I admit my cultivation is inferior to yours, but in the path of runes, I have absolute confidence that you are definitely not my equal!"
As Ye Feng's words fell, the wind howled, blowing Ye Ling's robes.
The long hair of both men danced wildly.
Ye Ling looked at the confident Ye Feng, a trace of sorrow flashing in his eyes. He sighed, "I was wrong..."
Ye Feng chuckled, "Are you surrendering?"
Ye Ling shook his head and said, "I was wrong to still consider you a significant figure... I never imagined you would become so foolish and arrogant."
Ye Feng was stunned, unable to react for a moment.
Ye Ling looked at Ye Feng, who was encased in rune armor, his gaze gradually becoming indifferent.
He whispered, "Kneel."
*Bang!!!*
Ye Feng, once again in front of everyone, knelt before Ye Ling.
At this moment, the Three Realms fell into a deathly silence.
