The instant an eerie chill spread rapidly through Ye Zhen's entire body, he understood: he had been immobilized by the sinister blood light of the Demon Emperor's Treasure Eye Sword.
There was not much surprise in Ye Zhen's heart.
Instead, he felt that it was only natural.
Ye Zhen had already witnessed how powerful Great Zhou's Nation-Suppressing Qiankun Seal was. Even Dao Ancestors had to compromise before it.
Then the Demon Emperor's Treasure Eye Sword, which represented the Demon Emperor's authority within the Devil Race, could not possibly be much inferior.
It was hardly surprising that it could immobilize Ye Zhen, a Creation Realm Divine General who had proven the Dao by force, in an instant—even with the laws under Ye Zhen's control blessing his entire body.
Though alarmed, Ye Zhen was not the least bit flustered.
In this situation, the more one panicked, the faster one died.
Under normal circumstances, once immobilized by the Demon Emperor's Treasure Eye Sword, a slash from Demon Emperor Ami Hao would make even a Creation Realm Divine King die with hatred on the spot.
Yet Ye Zhen was the exception.
In that first instant, Ye Zhen's eyes shifted, and within the sealed space of Prophet Demon Master Ba Yan, an extraordinarily subtle change occurred in the flow of time.
Ye Zhen was not arrogant enough to alter the temporal flow surrounding Prophet Demon Master Ba Yan or Demon Emperor Ami Hao.
With Ye Zhen's cultivation, he could have done so, but he would inevitably suffer backlash and pay an enormous price.
Especially since the Demon Emperor's Treasure Eye Sword in Demon Emperor Ami Hao's hand seemed to possess the support of power above the Heaven and Earth Laws. If Ye Zhen forcibly altered its temporal flow, the backlash alone would be enough to
