A gap appeared on the artifact, and a crack began to slowly spread.
The power required to activate the Nine Nether Forbidden Void Great Array was immense, but what Qin Chen could hardly endure was the pressure of maintaining the operation of the array.
At that moment, Qin Chen felt as if tens of thousands of mountains were crushing down on him, his bones creaking as if they were about to explode at any moment.
It was terrifying!
The Nine Nether Forbidden Void Great Array was an emperor-level formation, and with Qin Chen's current cultivation, it was already extremely difficult to activate it with full strength, let alone maintain it.
The terrifying spatial power was constantly seeping into his body at this moment, tearing apart his flesh.
This was still because Qin Chen possessed the heart of space and had obtained the essence of the Emperor of Void Annihilation; his body had already been trained into the legendary spatial divine body. If it were an ordinary quasi-emperor, they would have been instantly blown apart by the spatial power transmitted from the Nine Nether Forbidden Void Great Array the moment they activated it.
Upon seeing the cracks on Qin Chen's body, the Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan immediately revealed a great joy.
“Hahaha, although this kid has activated the Nine Nether Forbidden Void Great Array, operating the array requires withstanding an incredible amount of spatial power. Even ordinary emperor-level experts cannot easily endure it. Although I don't know how this kid managed to activate the array, with his cultivation level, he simply cannot bear the power of the array.”
“Kill!”
The Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan's eyes shone with wild joy, and the earlier anger vanished, replaced by endless excitement.
It seemed that Qin Chen had gained the upper hand, but in reality, he was tangling himself in a web.
With a loud roar, the Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan gave Qin Chen no chance at all; he stepped forward, and the vast Ten Kings of the Underworld Hall floated above, violently suppressing downwards towards Qin Chen.
Boom!
Countless deathly auras surged, and the surrounding area was filled with the endless sounds of ghostly wails and divine howls. The void within a ten-thousand-mile radius suddenly turned pitch black, as if they had instantly arrived in the Forest of the Underworld, with countless fierce ghosts ready to climb out.
Under such an aura, many leaders who had previously attempted to activate the imprint in their minds were all horrified and retreated, feeling severe pain throughout their bodies.
In the void, the Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan burned with imperial aura, ready to take advantage of the situation to suppress Qin Chen.
“Not good.”
In the distance, the Emperor of Beginning Charm gasped in surprise, her figure flickering as she hurried to support Qin Chen.
However, at that moment, a figure suddenly blocked her.
“Emperor of Beginning Charm, it's been millions of years since we last met, why are you in such a hurry to leave? How about we catch up on old times?”
The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor chuckled lightly and regained his composure. He raised a hand, and instantly, countless black mountains floated in the heavens. Each of these mountains was composed of eerie bones, towering like stars, crashing violently towards the Emperor of Beginning Charm.
With a loud crash, the Emperor of Beginning Charm was sent flying backwards, surrounded by illusory mountains that formed a great array, instantly binding her within.
The Emperor of Beginning Charm's expression turned cold as she hurriedly acted, trying to break free from the array's restraints, but no matter how she struck, the illusory mountains shook but ultimately sealed off the surrounding void, leaving no opportunity for her to escape.
This was the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor's Underworld Mountain Array. Although it was merely an illusory transformation, it was by no means something the Emperor of Beginning Charm could break within a short time.
