"Lingbao Heavenly Venerate is truly astonishingly talented!" Ying Hao couldn't help but exclaim.

Now that the Four Immortal Slaying Swords and the Killing Formation Diagram were both in his possession, and combined, he could truly feel the power of the First Killing Formation of all time.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say that if four Supreme Beings wielded the Killing Formation Diagram and the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, they could absolutely trap a Great Emperor.

As long as the First Killing Formation of all time was maintained for a long enough period, it could even slowly grind a Great Emperor into dust.

From this, it could be seen that on the path of formations, Lingbao Heavenly Venerate also possessed extremely high attainments.

With a raise of his hand and a point, the Killing Formation Diagram and the Four Immortal Slaying Swords merged. In an instant, killing intent surged limitlessly, and terrifying sword energy shot towards the heavens.

Taking this opportunity, he wanted to see if Lingbao Heavenly Venerate truly had any chance of survival left.

Ying Hao stepped on the starry sky, his body expanding rapidly, soaring straight into the clouds, reaching an unknown height of tens of thousands of feet, stomping the entire Star Domain under his feet.

Ten thousand feet of Emperor Qi shook the four seas and terrified the five regions. Heaven and earth wailed, and the Great Dao was trampled beneath his feet.

Under his control, the First Killing Formation of all time spread out, covering the entire Star Domain and shattering everything.

A world-covering might enveloped the entire Star Domain. He searched, searching for any trace of Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's potential survival.

To this end, he even used the First Killing Formation of all time as a guide, hoping to stir the residual power of Lingbao Heavenly Venerate.

After an unknown amount of time, a smile appeared on Ying Hao's face. The vast might instantly dissipated, as if it had never existed.

He found it!

In the deepest part of this Star Domain, he had found a very hidden trace of life, flickering in and out of existence, as if it might vanish at any moment.

But within that trace of life, he sensed a soul-stirring power, limitless killing intent, originating from the same source as the First Killing Formation of all time.

Lingbao Heavenly Venerate was indeed not dead; a trace of life still lingered!

However, according to his judgment, although Lingbao Heavenly Venerate was not dead, his own transformation must have encountered significant problems.

If not, Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's life force would not be flickering like a candle in the wind, in danger of extinguishing at any moment.

He dared not act rashly at this moment. If anything unexpected happened, Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's years of transformation might be ruined.

Once he continuously transformed and his strength grew, perhaps then he could forcefully intervene and force Lingbao Heavenly Venerate to break free from his transformation.

However, he could not act now, but that did not mean he could not lend Lingbao Heavenly Venerate a hand!

He looked towards the Divine Realm. Under the scorching of the True Sun Fire, the Divine Realm had been completely annihilated, turning into a ruin.

With a thought, within the Divine Realm, a temple rose from the ground, identical to the Sun God Temple and the Lunar Temple.

"Lingbao Heavenly Venerate once defied the heavens and fought against immortals, bringing peace to the world and performing great deeds for heaven and earth. This Emperor hereby bestows godhood and erects a temple today!"

As the vast voice echoed through heaven and earth, Ying Hao, using his own Great Emperor divine sense as a guide, condensed the power of faith.

The immense power of faith that had already gathered in the Divine Realm was now all concentrated in Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's temple.

In an instant, Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's temple became resplendent, and a golden statue rose from the ground, emitting boundless radiance.

As the power of faith converged, a tremendous roar suddenly sounded throughout the vast Star Domain, like the creation of heaven and earth.

Ying Hao's heart stirred, and his gaze focused on the boundless Star Domain. He could feel an inexplicable aura awakening.

Lingbao Heavenly Venerate!

Just as he had predicted, bestowing godhood and erecting a temple for Lingbao Heavenly Venerate indeed helped him.

However, that inexplicable aura was very weak. Lingbao Heavenly Venerate should not have awakened.

This was an instinctive reaction, like a drowning person subconsciously grabbing a life-saving straw.

Lingbao Heavenly Venerate, undergoing transformation, felt a glimmer of hope and instinctively reacted.

By grasping this sliver of hope, Lingbao Heavenly Venerate might reappear in the world, but there was also the risk of failure.

Ying Hao raised his hand and pointed. The Killing Formation Diagram and the Four Immortal Slaying Swords flew from his hand, landing in Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's temple.

"When the time comes, I will lend you further assistance, fellow Daoist!" Ying Hao bowed.

Fueled by the power of faith, if anyone dared to tamper with Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's temple, the First Killing Formation of all time would activate.

Anyone below the level of Supreme Being would die upon arrival. If a Supreme Being acted, as long as he was still around, he would naturally sense it.

This also served to provide Lingbao Heavenly Venerate with a safe environment for transformation, preventing him from being disturbed.

He had gained immensely from the Star Domain that Lingbao Heavenly Venerate had transformed into. Inadvertently, he owed Lingbao Heavenly Venerate a favor.

Simply bestowing godhood and erecting a temple for Lingbao Heavenly Venerate could not repay this immense debt of gratitude.

His current strength was still insufficient. Once he advanced further, perhaps he could sit and discuss the Great Dao with Lingbao Heavenly Venerate.

At the same time, the commotion caused by Ying Hao bestowing godhood and erecting a temple for Lingbao Heavenly Venerate could not be hidden from the Supreme Beings.

Some Supreme Beings awoke from their slumber, their gazes piercing through the void, falling upon the resplendent Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's temple.

"Haotian the Great Emperor has been dormant for so long, yet he actually found the place where Lingbao Heavenly Venerate fell!"

"Lingbao Heavenly Venerate is no ordinary being, rumored to have once defied immortals and possessed astonishing combat power!"

"With Haotian the Great Emperor's methods, could it be that he has already obtained Lingbao Heavenly Venerate's inheritance?"

The Supreme Beings had their own thoughts, but without exception, they regarded Haotian the Great Emperor with even greater apprehension.

Haotian the Great Emperor was already a figure of great apprehension for them, and with the inheritance of Lingbao Heavenly Venerate added, some Supreme Beings were already starting to get headaches.

However, no matter how apprehensive they were, none of the Supreme Beings made any rash moves.

Even when some Supreme Beings discovered the Killing Formation Diagram and the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, they still chose not to act.

They weren't foolish; who knew if Haotian the Great Emperor was just baiting them? If they were to make a move, wouldn't they be falling right into his trap?

Haotian the Great Emperor's power was growing stronger by the day, and he was at his peak. Making an enemy of him now would not be a wise decision.

But a peak always has its twilight. Waiting for the sun to set before slowly settling all accounts wouldn't be too late!

A golden avenue connected across the universe. Compared to his arrival, Ying Hao walked openly, as if he were afraid no one would know.

"The Supreme Beings are indeed cautious!"

Ying Hao openly established temples and deified gods, even leaving behind the Killing Formation Diagram and the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, all to see if any Supreme Beings would make a move.

The facts proved that when a peerless powerhouse exists, the Supreme Beings' minds are exceptionally clear.

Upon returning to the Ziwei Star Domain, Ying Hao once again entered seclusion to cultivate and digest his gains from this trip.

This time, in addition to mastering the divine ability Five-Colored Divine Light, he also received two system rewards.

Whether it was the World Creation Insight or the Primordial Violet Qi, both were extraordinary items in the Great Desolation world.

But in the Veil of Heaven world, how much help would these be to him?

Thinking this, he no longer hesitated and was the first to claim the World Creation Insight.

Instantly, Ying Hao's eyes closed tightly, his soul drifting, and his entire being was immersed in a deep state of enlightenment.

A profound Dao rhythm spread from Ying Hao's body, sweeping across the entire Ziwei Star Domain.

Cao Yusheng, who was cultivating, was startled awake, looking at Ying Hao with disbelief in his eyes.

"He just went out for a bit, and now he's about to become immortal?"
