Chapter 2362: The Overwhelmingly Powerful Seventeen!

"Rest! He actually took the initiative to let Pang Zhen and the others rest!"

"This kid, did he get his brains shaken up when he fought Wan Zhen earlier?"

"What time is it, and he's still talking about the demeanor of a great general?"

……

Everyone was stunned; they simply couldn't understand Ye Yuan's approach.

At a moment when every bit counted, this guy suddenly became magnanimous, actively letting the others rest.

Even Pang Zhen, Yu Tanzhi, and the others were taken aback, only coming to their senses after a long while.

These people, naturally proud and aloof, had they ever been so belittled?

"Kid, are you sure?" Yu Tanzhi said with a half-smile.

Ye Yuan nodded: "To me, one person or a dozen people, it's all the same. So, you'd better recover your strength first; otherwise, this battle won't be interesting."

With that, he sat cross-legged and continued to regulate his breathing.

The eighteen geniuses looked at each other, all feeling a sense of disdain.

They had actually been looked down upon!

"Very well, today I'll see just how strong this kid really is!"

Pang Zhen sneered, then began to regulate his breathing.

Above the void, bursts of loud laughter rang out.

"This kid is truly domineering! He dares to challenge eighteen alone. Such boldness, even I cannot match! Lei Ting, you said he couldn't even make the War God Golden List—what now?" Xuanji Heavenly Emperor laughed heartily.

All the big shots, including the Thunder Ancestor, had extremely grim expressions.

Over the past decade, they had been mocking Xuanji Heavenly Emperor, saying that the person he chose couldn't even enter the War God Golden List.

But who would have thought that at the last moment, Ye Yuan would burst onto the scene, soaring all the way to first place.

In the Cage Battle, Ye Yuan shocked the world with two fights, intimidating all the geniuses into not daring to attack him.

In the final battle, he arrogantly challenged the eighteen strongest geniuses alone.

This sudden move not only shocked the geniuses in the Primordial War Realm but also the old ancestors watching from afar.

Even Xuanji Heavenly Emperor was stunned for a long time before coming to his senses.

The Thunder Ancestor said grimly, "What are you gloating about? Fighting eighteen alone—do you think he can win?"

Xuanji Heavenly Emperor laughed, "So what if he loses? A true great power must do what others cannot, dare what others dare not! Without crushing one's peers, how can one attain the Dao? In this past era, haven't only a few of us old fellows emerged? Besides, since this kid dares to be so arrogant, how do you know he has no backing?"

The others were momentarily speechless.

What Xuanji said was true; among the old ancestors who had attained the Dao, which one hadn't crushed their peers to get where they are today?

But even they, back in their day, wouldn't have dared to fight eighteen alone!

"Xuanji, don't be too pleased! Even if he has backing, he absolutely cannot win! Be careful—you might end up with egg on your face!" an old ancestor snorted coldly.

Xuanji's gaze swept over everyone's faces, and he shook his head with a smile, "Your vision is too narrow! When all races are in crisis, heroes must rise! The stronger Ye Yuan is, the more hope humanity has! At this moment, you're still playing your own little games—why bother?"

The others were speechless. Xuanji's words made sense, but people are selfish; who can truly be selfless?

……

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. These top geniuses cultivated the most advanced techniques and recovered quickly.

By now, all eighteen had reached their peak state.

With their strength back, it was as if their strong confidence had returned.

Pang Zhen looked at Ye Yuan and sneered, "Kid, confidence is a good thing! But you'll soon find out that it's not confidence—it's arrogance!"

Ye Yuan smiled, "Is that so? I hope you can prove it to me."

Pang Zhen's face darkened; this kid's smile was really annoying!

Yu Tanzhi suddenly said, "Wan Zhen, which side are you on?"

Wan Zhen said calmly, "I choose to withdraw!"

Yu Tanzhi sneered, "Withdraw? Heh, you're playing a clever game! If we really end up mutually wounded, won't you reap the benefits?"

Wan Zhen replied, "Actually, I wanted to help Brother Ye, but he definitely wouldn't want me to interfere. So, I can only withdraw. Of course, if you're not at ease, you can send a few to deal with me!"

Ye Yuan smiled slightly; this Wan Zhen was a sensible person.

Yu Tanzhi's gaze darkened, "In that case, everyone, after we kill this kid, we'll join forces to kill Wan Zhen!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, clearly having no objections.

Suddenly, streaks of extremely powerful primal law forces lit up within the cage.

Before any action, that powerful aura had already pierced through the cage, sweeping across the entire Primordial War Realm.

This was the combined power of seventeen people!

Just sensing this aura was suffocating.

Seventeen people, dozens of primal forces.

Some had towering momentum, some were grand and heavy, some were ethereal and elusive!

Each person's characteristics were different, each person's strengths were different.

The combined force of these seventeen was virtually flawless.

"So strong! Truly strong! If I were standing there, I'd probably be crushed into meat paste before they even attacked."

"Let alone you, even if Wan Zhen stood in the middle, he'd probably collapse!"

"I really don't know what Ye Yuan was thinking. Is such an opponent something one person can handle?"

……

Even Wan Zhen, feeling this terrifying power, turned pale.

Earlier, it was a melee; these auras weren't directed at any one person.

But now, everyone was targeting Ye Yuan alone, and the feeling was completely different.

The叠加 of seventeen forces was like seventeen great mountains, truly immensely heavy.

Above the void, Ye Yuan was surrounded by the seventeen in the middle.

Around him, streaks of sword light flickered, the sword array circulated on its own, and his face showed neither joy nor sorrow.

For him, this was also a huge challenge.

After all, these opponents were no pushovers; they were the top geniuses of the Tongtian Realm!

Especially Pang Zhen; the lightning power on him seemed like heavenly punishment representing the Dao of Heaven, truly terrifying.

"Kill!"

With a roar from Pang Zhen, his entire body turned into a bolt of lightning, striking toward Ye Yuan.

In an instant, a sea of lightning completely enveloped Ye Yuan.

That terrifying thunder power seemed ready to destroy the world!

The Thunder Ancestor, after all, represented the power of heavenly punishment.

Pang Zhen had inherited his true teachings; one can imagine how terrifying his power was!

At the same time, the other sixteen struck simultaneously.

Streaks of extremely terrifying energy fluctuations smashed into that sea of lightning, the place where Ye Yuan stood.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Yuan was drowned in a riot of colorful energy fluctuations.

People only saw that the place where Ye Yuan stood had almost become a black hole.

The terrifying attacks had turned that area into a vacuum zone.
