"I'm telling you, this Earth is no ordinary place. Back then, the Celestial Emperor founded the Heavenly Court and once controlled the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains."
Cao Yusheng waxed eloquent about the events of that era, but he soon realized that Ying Hao had not heard a word he said.
Ever since arriving on Earth, Ying Hao had been in a very strange state. He looked dazed and distracted.
Ying Hao was an invincible Great Emperor. How could someone at his level be in such an abnormal state?
Could it be that Ying Hao had sensed something?
No, that could not be right. Earth was special, but not to the point of affecting a Great Emperor like this.
Just as Cao Yusheng's imagination was running wild, Ying Hao suddenly took a step forward and arrived at a certain place on Earth.
Although Earth was a vast ancient star, a single thought from a Great Emperor was enough to sweep across the entire planet.
On Earth, he saw familiar places and familiar events. That was why his mind had fallen into a daze.
"Is all of this merely a coincidence, or is there another reason?"
Restricting his aura, Ying Hao transformed into an ordinary person and walked through a bustling city.
That was right—a bustling city!
Earth was also known as the Primordial Ancient Star. Before entering Earth, he had already made some preparations.
Even so, when he saw the Earth of the present day, he still could not help feeling dazed.
What era was this?
He had only just brought the Primordial Era to an end and opened the Desolate Ancient Era. Why could he see traces of later generations on Earth?
If his guess was correct, then by the Post-Desolate Ancient Era, the Earth where Heavenly Emperor Ye lived should be very similar to the Earth he saw now.
In other words, the scene he was witnessing now would still reappear on Earth after countless years.
"This is a cycle of reincarnation," Ying Hao murmured.
He suddenly realized that perhaps there was no need to wait until the Post-Desolate Ancient Era. Every so often, everything he was seeing now might reappear on Earth.
Similar events and similar people would continue to reappear on Earth.
A sentence suddenly came to mind!
Perhaps there was no true reincarnation in this world, but there were reincarnated people and reincarnated events!
This was what made Earth special. The entire planet was constantly reincarnating!
Every so often, similar people would appear, and similar events would play out again.
The homeland of Desolate Heaven Emperor hid a tremendous secret!
This had clearly surpassed Ying Hao's current level. He merely walked through it and witnessed it, but he did not dare interfere.
On the Earth of the present day, there were two entirely different worlds.
One was the bustling city where mortals lived, while the other was the vast cultivation world where cultivators lived.
In the bustling city, he saw familiar sights, as if he had suddenly returned to the world he had lived in before transmigrating.
Although his state of mind was now as still as an ancient well, he was inevitably affected to some degree.
Yet after his moment of daze, it was like rain after a long drought. His entire mind seemed to have undergone a cleansing.
The events of his former life were already like passing clouds. What was past was past. Even after seeing those familiar sights again, he was no longer the person he had once been.
Only at this moment did he truly sever his ties to the past and completely merge into the Shrouding the Heavens world. His soul consequently underwent a sublimation.
Afterward, he entered the cultivation world. There, he saw many myths and legends similar to those of the Great Desolation World.
For example, Kunlun Mountain, Penglai Immortal Island, and many familiar mythological figures.
He continued to walk through and observe. Everything he saw and heard transformed into imprints and was engraved into the Heavenly Dao Record.
Within the Heavenly Dao Record, yin and yang qi surged, the vast world trembled continuously, and a strange transformation was underway.
Only when Ying Hao stopped did Cao Yusheng rush in front of him, staring him up and down in shock.
He had already noticed that Ying Hao was in a strange state. He had not dared disturb him and could only follow behind.
Now that Ying Hao had finally returned to normal, Cao Yusheng had to see what had happened to him.
After taking only one look, Cao Yusheng froze. Was this really the Ying Hao he knew?
In his eyes, Ying Hao had always been heroic and dazzling, radiant like the sun, displaying the invincible bearing of the Great Emperor of his era.
But at this moment, Ying Hao seemed to have restrained all his aura. His entire person appeared much more peaceful, almost like an ordinary man.
His divine radiance had been restrained, returning him to simplicity!
What had Ying Hao experienced? How could he have undergone such an enormous change in such a short time?
At that moment, Cao Yusheng felt as if a cat were scratching at his heart. He had already come to Earth once before.
Why had nothing changed after he came to Earth twice, while Ying Hao could undergo such an enormous transformation the moment he arrived?
If he could, he wanted to become like Ying Hao as well!
If he could undergo such a baptism, with his current accumulation, he might immediately advance another step and achieve the Alternative Dao Achievement.
Ying Hao paid no attention to Cao Yusheng's shock. He had already arrived at Mount Tai, a place filled with mystery.
Ying Hao climbed to the summit of Mount Tai and began moving both hands, evolving supreme divine abilities. Tracing back to the source, he saw through Earth's past.
He had initially been extremely wary, believing Earth's suspected reincarnation to be a taboo and not daring to touch it recklessly.
But he soon understood. If Earth was truly reincarnating, then it must involve powerhouses beyond imagination.
In the eyes of existences at that level, a million years was merely an instant. A Great Emperor was probably no more than an ant.
Whether he touched the taboo or not, existences at that level would not care. They might not even spare him a second glance because of it.
Ultimate Emperor Might spread around Ying Hao. His hands tore through space and time. In an instant, thunder rumbled, as if countless ghosts and gods were roaring nearby.
At that moment, heaven and earth seemed to have been overturned. Then countless hazy scenes appeared on Mount Tai.
Grand sacrificial chants rang out, deafening and soul-stirring, making people feel as if they were about to attain enlightenment, kneel down, and bow to the heavenly gods.
Ying Hao had used a taboo method to pierce through the past and present, allowing events and scenes from long ago to reappear in the world.
"Rumble!"
A tremendous roar rang out. When Ying Hao traced back to the ancient era, several figures blocked his path, making it impossible to see through the past.
Earth, this ancient life-origin star, had produced Great Emperors—and more than one.
One of the figures had a cauldron above his head. Even though it was only a hazy silhouette, its peerless bearing was impossible to conceal.
The Celestial Emperor! Only the Celestial Emperor could possess such peerless bearing!
Ying Hao unleashed peerless methods. Even the Celestial Emperor's imprint could not stop him from probing the truth.
In the end, he pierced through the imprints of several Great Emperors, causing countless scenes from the past to reappear on Mount Tai.
At last, he saw familiar people and familiar events. He even saw the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin set off from Mount Tai.
Just as he had expected, Earth had always been caught in reincarnation, and similar events had continually appeared on Earth.
Suddenly, he saw a person standing atop Mount Tai, supreme beneath the heavens and above the earth, with an aura impossible to describe!
The pressure suddenly multiplied. As powerful as Ying Hao was, he began coughing up blood uncontrollably, his body tottering on the verge of collapse.
It was the Desolate Heaven Emperor!
