The Ziwei Star Domain was turbulent, winds and clouds surging over the North Sea. With Tanggu Valley reappearing in the world, it attracted countless gazes.
Yet no one dared approach Tanggu Valley, because its vast, boundless aura made everyone back away.
"It's Haotian the Great Emperor! He found Tanggu Valley. What is he doing?"
"There have long been rumors that Haotian the Great Emperor is a descendant of the Sun Human Emperor. It seems they were true!"
"This is unbelievable! A descendant of an Ancient Emperor, forcibly proving the Dao, and truly terrifyingly powerful. No wonder he dared to change his imperial title and call himself Emperor!"
The North Sea trembled. The Fusang Ancient Tree shone brilliantly. It was an Immortal Medicine, enough to drive the entire world mad.
But Haotian the Great Emperor had just slain a Supreme. Which reckless fool would dare approach Tanggu Valley now?
Ying Hao looked at the sheet of human skin in the coffin, deep in thought. Gradually, his gaze hardened.
Having made his decision, he naturally had no more hesitation. No matter how slim the hope was, he had to try.
"I wish to bring my ancestor back into the world. Senior, I ask that you lend me your strength!" Ying Hao said solemnly.
The body of the Sun Human Emperor's Divine Thought was fading. It was a sign that it was about to dissolve into the Dao.
Clearly, after the Sun Human Emperor returned to his homeland, his obsession had vanished, and there was naturally no longer any need for the Divine Thought to exist.
He had proved the Dao here and been buried here. His fate had begun and ended here, and his mission was complete.
"Bring the Human Emperor back into the world?"
The Divine Thought, which was in the process of dissolving into the Dao, froze slightly. Brilliant light erupted from its eyes, and its body stopped fading.
The Sun Human Emperor was already dead. How could he possibly reappear in the world?
But what if?
He was the Sun Human Emperor's Divine Thought. If he could truly help the Human Emperor reappear in the world, how could he dissolve into the Dao now?
"I wish to use the power of faith to forge a golden body for my ancestor and bring him back into the world, but I need Senior to lend me your strength!"
For the sake of becoming an immortal, countless powerful figures throughout the ages had tried every method imaginable. The power of faith was one of them.
On this path, the Undying Heavenly Emperor had gone far, but if one asked who had reached the pinnacle, it was probably the later Amitabha the Great Emperor.
Although his true self had passed away, his Faith Body had existed since ancient times. When the Immortal Ascension Path opened, it could still lead its believers into a desperate battle.
He intended to emulate Amitabha the Great Emperor, gather the power of faith, and hope that the Sun Human Emperor could one day reappear in the world.
It would be difficult, and the hope was extremely slim, but as long as there was even a trace of hope, it was worth trying.
Even if he ultimately failed, once he became an Immortal Emperor, he could still reflect across the heavens and revive his ancestor.
"Good! I will lend you my strength!"
The light in the Sun Human Emperor's Divine Thought's eyes grew increasingly brilliant, without the slightest doubt.
After all, the person before it was not only a descendant of the Sun Human Emperor but also an invincible powerhouse of the age.
Ying Hao nodded. He personally established a temple in Tanggu Valley, then began presiding over the deification ritual.
"Today, I establish the Sun God Cult in my name and worship our ancestor, the Sun Human Emperor!"
In the name of the Great Emperor of the current age, Ying Hao personally conferred godhood. Grand Dao sounds spread throughout the universe, shaking the sea of stars.
With a raised hand and a single point, the bloodstained human skin inside the stone coffin swelled up and transformed into a figure.
Its imposing bearing was awe-inspiring, its hair loose, its martial might peerless. The Sun Sacred Emperor reappeared in the world and reigned over the world.
Unfortunately, there was a sorrowful emptiness in the Sun Human Emperor's eyes. They held neither spirit nor light.
It had only his form, but not his spirit!
Ultimately, this was merely a sheet of the Sun Human Emperor's human skin!
The Sun Human Emperor had made outstanding contributions to the Human Race, with merits spanning the ages. During the Primordial Era, he had held up a piece of heaven for the Human Race.
Even with only a sheet of human skin remaining, he still protected the Human Race in later generations!
How could such an unparalleled Human Emperor be allowed to fade away in obscurity?
"Deification!"
Ying Hao's expression was solemn. He was a Great Emperor and the Sun Human Emperor's descendant—no one was more suitable to confer godhood than him.
With a furious roar, the Sun Human Emperor's human skin fell into the Sun God Temple, and billions of strands of light burst from its body.
Then, he condensed his own Great Emperor Divine Thought within the Sun God Temple, causing the place to blaze with golden light.
The Sun Human Emperor's human skin gradually changed, slowly becoming a golden body, with a sacred aura gathering around it.
Then, the Sun God Cult worshiped together. Countless divine thoughts were guided into the Sun God Temple and condensed upon the golden body.
"Rumble!"
Bolts of lightning crashed down from the heavens and earth, and thunderclouds filled the sky. They were trying to stop Ying Hao from carrying out this defiance of Heaven.
A Great Emperor of the current age was conferring godhood and forging a golden body for the Sun Human Emperor. It truly seemed possible that he might succeed.
Ying Hao looked toward the sky. Two great suns rose and sank in his eyes, and the tribulation lightning instantly collapsed. The heavenly punishment vanished completely.
This was the peerless might of a Great Emperor. There was virtually nothing in the world that could stop him.
Then, he looked at the Sun Human Emperor's Divine Thought. Only the final step remained.
The Divine Thought smiled faintly. Within the Sun God Temple before it, it truly saw hope that the Sun Human Emperor might reappear in the world.
It nodded at Ying Hao. Its face was filled with emotion and astonishment. Then, step by step, it walked into the Sun God Temple.
The Divine Thought merged into the Sun Human Emperor's golden body. In an instant, the extreme might of an Ancient Emperor swept across the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, shaking the universe and the cosmos.
The Sun Stone Pagoda trembled. It was the Sun Human Emperor's Ancient Emperor Weapon. At that moment, billions of strands of immortal radiance danced through the air, illuminating eternity.
The Sun Stone Pagoda rose into the air and fell into the hand of the Sun Human Emperor's golden body. Brilliant immortal light immediately enveloped the entire Sun God Temple.
From afar, the Sun God Temple appeared magnificent and majestic, standing within Tanggu Valley. The Immortal Medicine, the Fusang Ancient Tree, accompanied it on either side, scattering endless divine radiance.
When the deification ritual ended, auspicious light illuminated everything and multicolored clouds filled the sky. A towering figure stood within the Sun God Temple.
It had succeeded!
The Sun Human Emperor seemed to have been resurrected. A sacred aura radiated from his body, making people instinctively want to bow and worship.
The Ziwei Star Domain trembled. Countless powerful figures rushed to Tanggu Valley. Upon seeing the radiant Sun God Temple, they were all dumbstruck.
Afterward, experts from beyond the domain arrived in the Ziwei Star Domain, all coming to worship at the Sun God Temple at the first opportunity.
"The power of faith truly is wondrous!" Ying Hao murmured.
As countless powerful figures worshiped, he could sense a mysterious force gathering within the Sun God Temple.
This was the power of faith, originating from all living beings. It was profoundly mysterious and filled with endless secrets.
He had no intention of walking the path of faith, but studying it through this opportunity would bring enormous benefits.
If one wished to transform into an immortal amid the mortal world, one could only keep trying. Only then was there a chance of finding a path suited to oneself.
As countless powerful figures worshiped, the Sun God Temple grew increasingly radiant, and the Sun Human Emperor's golden body seemed to come alive.
"Haotian the Great Emperor truly is a divine man! He can even perform such a heaven-defying technique!"
"The Sun Human Emperor seems to have been resurrected. Could he truly reappear in the world?"
"Impossible! No matter how powerful a Great Emperor is, he cannot reverse life and death. At most, that is only a golden body!"
Everyone who had visited the Sun God Temple marveled at Haotian the Great Emperor's astonishing technique. It was simply unimaginable.
The Sun Human Emperor, who seemed resurrected, truly looked like an Ancient Emperor seated within the temple, looking down upon the mortal world.
Countless powerful figures throughout the universe sighed in amazement. This Haotian the Great Emperor truly was heaven-defying!
A descendant of an Ancient Emperor who had forcibly proved the Dao and slain a Supreme immediately after doing so—he was so powerful that he made people tremble. He was a rarity throughout history!
Elsewhere, Ying Hao was deep in thought, considering how he should walk the path ahead.
Proving the Dao and becoming Emperor was only the beginning. He was unwilling to end his life in a single lifetime. His only path was to transform into an immortal amid the mortal world.
I hope my deduction is correct!
