In the last few thousand years, there have been rumors that Haotian the Great Emperor was nearing his end and might soon pass away.

This wasn't baseless gossip. Throughout history, the peak of a Great Emperor's life usually lasted about ten thousand years.

Haotian the Great Emperor's peak had reached its twilight, so his passing wouldn't be strange.

As time went on, more and more people believed these rumors, with some even thinking Haotian the Great Emperor had already passed away.

The rumors persisted until today, when they were proven false. Haotian the Great Emperor reappeared in the world, his Ultimate Emperor Might shaking the entire universe.

"Heavens! It's Haotian the Great Emperor! He's actually reappeared in the world, he's not dead yet!"

"Fifteen thousand years have passed since Haotian the Great Emperor achieved Dao. He's already twenty thousand years old this year!"

"A peak lifespan of twenty thousand years! Among all those who have achieved Dao throughout history, Haotian the Great Emperor definitely ranks among the very best!"

With Haotian the Great Emperor's reappearance, countless people across the universe watched in utter shock.

Before this, many had believed Haotian the Great Emperor had passed away, and that a peerless powerhouse of an era had faded into obscurity.

But Haotian the Great Emperor was not dead, and everything was not over. The legend of Haotian the Great Emperor might continue.

Ying Hao, stepping on the Golden Light Grand Dao, descended upon the Big Dipper Star Domain. His objective for this trip was very clear.

Soon, he approached a primitive region. The wilderness was boundless, with ancient trees soaring into the sky like small mountains.

Ahead of him lay a vast mountain range, its imposing aura magnificent and towering, as if it had existed since the dawn of creation.

Each peak could be called a king among mountains, an emperor among peaks, exuding a majestic and grand aura. Furthermore, the mountains were all pitch black.

The Immortal Mountain, one of the six Forbidden Zones of the Big Dipper, harbored several Supreme Beings, its terror boundless.

This wasn't Ying Hao's first time here. Over ten thousand years ago, after forcefully achieving Dao, he had personally visited the Immortal Mountain.

That time, he not only entered the Immortal Mountain but also traversed all six Forbidden Zones of the Big Dipper Star Domain, silencing the Supreme Beings.

However, due to mutual apprehension, he hadn't taken any overly aggressive actions, mostly just deterring the Supreme Beings.

Now, he returned to the Immortal Mountain. The Golden Light Grand Dao extended into the Immortal Mountain, immediately stunning countless onlookers.

"Haotian the Great Emperor has reappeared in the world, and he's actually going into the Immortal Mountain?"

According to many people's speculation, Haotian the Great Emperor's reappearance was to reassert his imperial might and show everyone he wasn't dead.

The era of Haotian the Great Emperor was still ongoing!

No one had expected that after reappearing, Haotian the Great Emperor would not only descend upon the Big Dipper Star Domain but head directly to the Immortal Mountain.

What was Haotian the Great Emperor trying to do?

Many people felt uneasy, especially the beings in the Big Dipper Star Domain, as if millions of mountains were pressing down on their hearts.

At this moment, many couldn't bear the immense pressure and shot into the sky, fleeing the Big Dipper Star Domain at top speed.

The Supreme Beings in the Forbidden Zones had all awakened. They were also bewildered by the huge stir Haotian the Great Emperor was causing.

"He actually managed to live to twenty thousand years old. His lifespan is truly extraordinary!"

"A bit less than the Divine Silkworm Ancient Emperor, but already surpasses the vast majority. His physique is indeed special!"

"No matter how special, he's already in his twilight years. What exactly is he trying to do?"

In fact, many Supreme Beings had been silently waiting for Haotian the Great Emperor to enter his twilight years.

They had waited for over ten thousand years, and Haotian the Great Emperor was already twenty thousand years old, yet his era had still not ended.

However, no Supreme Being believed Haotian the Great Emperor could defy fate, as his current appearance was enough to explain everything.

His appearance was gaunt, his Blood Essence was failing, and he looked like he was on his last breath, clearly having entered his twilight years.

Moreover, all the Supreme Beings could sense that Haotian the Great Emperor's vitality was very weak, and he likely didn't have much time left.

Under these circumstances, why would Haotian the Great Emperor, instead of trying to live out another life, come to a Forbidden Zone?

Could it be?

A bad premonition surfaced in the minds of some Supreme Beings. They thought of a terrifying possibility, and their expressions instantly changed drastically.

Ying Hao stepped into the Immortal Mountain, walking step by step, not quickly. He continuously observed the Immortal Mountain, this Forbidden Zone.

Every Forbidden Zone was an extremely special place, otherwise, it wouldn't have been chosen by Supreme Beings as their resting place.

The Immortal Mountain was extraordinary. Each mountain peak bore the marks of time and flowed with a demonic power that was fatal to ordinary people.

But for Ying Hao, neither the mystical powers within the Immortal Mountain nor the dense array patterns held any significance.

He strolled as if in a leisurely courtyard, treating the Immortal Mountain as if it were nothing, as if it weren't a Forbidden Zone but a tourist attraction.

As he walked, a tree appeared before him. Its leaves rustled, and brilliance filled the air, shimmering with radiance.

It was the Ancient Dao Comprehension Tea Tree, a special Immortal Medicine. Its one hundred and eight leaves were crystal clear and shone brilliantly, possessing the effect of aiding one's comprehension of Dao.

He had seen it once before. Although he had plucked leaves from the Ancient Dao Comprehension Tea Tree, he hadn't taken the Immortal Medicine away.

One reason was that the Immortal Mountain was very special, one of the primordial immortal lands of the universe, and the Ancient Dao Comprehension Tea Tree could only grow here.

The other reason was that the Forbidden Zones were currently powerful, and he had just forcefully achieved Dao, so it wasn't advisable to provoke them too much.

But now, everything was different!

Without hesitation, Ying Hao reached out a large hand, grabbing a vast area along with the Ancient Dao Comprehension Tea Tree.

Since the Ancient Dao Comprehension Tea Tree couldn't survive elsewhere, he decided to carve out a section of the Immortal Mountain to nurture it.

"How dare you, junior?"

A cold snort echoed from the depths of the Immortal Mountain, its anger undisguised, causing the entire mountain to rumble.

To barge into the Immortal Mountain as if no one were there, treating them, the Supreme Beings, as if they were nothing, and now to carve out a piece of the Immortal Mountain and take the Ancient Dao Comprehension Tea Tree?

This was simply too much!

If they didn't react at all, wouldn't outsiders think that the Supreme Beings within the Immortal Mountain had all died out?

"I am old now, in my twilight years, with little time left!" Ying Hao said calmly.

The Supreme Beings within the Immortal Mountain fell silent, this being the very thing that puzzled them the most.

Haotian the Great Emperor was clearly in his twilight years, appearing to have little time left, so why had he come to the Immortal Mountain at this time?

Even if he came to the Immortal Mountain, why was he acting so aggressively, even deliberately provoking them?

They truly couldn't understand, had Haotian the Great Emperor lost his mind?

"The Record, come!"

Ying Hao shouted, and a celestial light rose from Earth, piercing through the vast void and descending into the Immortal Mountain.

The Heavenly Dao Record hovered above his head, shedding endless chaotic energy, and a magnificent world flickered in and out of existence.

"Do you wish to fight this Emperor?"

The immense voice resounded through heaven and earth, startling the Supreme Beings. They finally understood!

The most terrifying thing in the world wasn't a Great Emperor in his twilight years, but a Late-Stage Great Emperor entering a Forbidden Zone with an Ultimate Emperor Weapon.
