When the mighty voice rang out across heaven and earth, the entire world was shocked—even the Supremes were no exception.

Ying Hao's body was shrouded in Emperor Qi, and his divine might was vast and mighty. Was he planning to directly wage war against the Forbidden Zone?

After lying low for over ten thousand years, when he had entered his twilight years, Haotian the Great Emperor had actually changed his usual ways and initiated a divine war?

Ying Hao advanced step by step into Immortal Mountain. The Heavenly Dao Record floated above his head, radiating billions of strands of Immortal Light.

Ten thousand years ago, Ying Hao had placed the Heavenly Dao Record in the Immortal Ascension Pool of the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains, allowing it to transform on its own.

Gathering the Fortune of the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains and engraving the marks of the Great Dao from the Primordial Ancient Star, the Heavenly Dao Record had been constantly transforming.

Ying Hao could sense that the Heavenly Dao Record had become increasingly extraordinary, gradually surpassing the limits of an Ultimate Emperor Weapon.

Ahead of Ying Hao was a headless knight riding a stone beast. At this moment, it was trembling violently.

He was a Quasi-Emperor. Although he was a servant of Immortal Mountain, in the outside world, he was a powerful figure who shook the universe.

Yet even such a Quasi-Emperor could only kneel before the mighty Ultimate Emperor Might, not daring to raise his head.

Seeing Ying Hao advancing step by step into Immortal Mountain, the Supremes within could no longer suppress their fury.

"Impudent!"

A furious shout came from the depths of Immortal Mountain. All the black mountains shook together, rumbling as though the gods were enraged.

Ying Hao let out a cold laugh and took another step forward, landing on a great mountain and kicking it to pieces.

"Enough with the nonsense! Whoever wants to come out and fight this Emperor, hurry up and get out here!"

With a resolute expression, Ying Hao forcefully entered the deepest part of Immortal Mountain, its very core.

Compared with the other regions, this place was not some demonic land. Instead, it was a pure and natural paradise beyond the mortal world.

This was because it was where the Supremes of Immortal Mountain slept. Vaguely, several tall figures could be seen emerging.

In the core region of Immortal Mountain, several Supremes had livid expressions, a vicious glint flashing through their eyes.

They had all once been invincible powerhouses of the world. Who would dare treat them with such an attitude?

Haotian the Great Emperor not only dared to do so, but was also forceful in his manner, even directly barging into the core region of Immortal Mountain.

But the question before them now was whether they truly should fight Haotian the Great Emperor.

Haotian the Great Emperor looked withered and haggard, seemingly on the verge of death. His strength might already have fallen to less than a tenth of its peak.

On the surface, this should have been the best opportunity to kill Haotian the Great Emperor.

But he was an Emperor, after all!

An Emperor who had entered his twilight years and had little time left—how insane would he become before his death?

If he fought to the death, how many Supremes could Haotian the Great Emperor drag down with him?

They only needed to wait a few more years for Haotian the Great Emperor to die naturally. Why should they risk their lives?

The Supremes within Immortal Mountain remained silent, but the Supremes in the other Forbidden Zones were gloating.

"Haotian the Great Emperor endured for so many years. Who would have thought that he would become so forceful in his twilight years?"

"Fortunately, he chose Immortal Mountain. Otherwise, we would be the ones with a headache!"

"Perhaps he's only bluffing. Faced with a life-or-death tribulation, Haotian the Great Emperor might end up being just like us!"

As long as fellow cultivators died instead of themselves, it did not matter. In any case, Haotian the Great Emperor had gone to Immortal Mountain, not the Forbidden Zones where they resided.

Even if an earth-shaking battle truly erupted in Immortal Mountain, they actually did not care. They might even be happy to see it happen.

After all, Haotian the Great Emperor would most likely fall after the battle, and they might even be able to take a share of the spoils.

As for how many Supremes of Immortal Mountain would fall because of it, what did that have to do with them?

However, some Supremes believed that Haotian the Great Emperor was only bluffing and that a great battle most likely would not erupt in the end.

Haotian the Great Emperor was an astonishingly talented individual. Naturally, such a powerhouse would not be willing to submit to others, which was why he had staged this scene today.

By displaying his own strength, Haotian the Great Emperor could take advantage of the situation and enter one of the Forbidden Zones after self-slashing his cultivation.

Moreover, Haotian the Great Emperor would most likely enter Immortal Mountain. Otherwise, he would not have headed straight there.

In the core region of Immortal Mountain, an old turtle was crawling along at tremendous speed, fleeing as fast as lightning.

Ying Hao's eyes lit up. He knew that most Immortal Medicines had fallen into the Forbidden Zones.

Besides the Ancient Dao Comprehension Tea Tree, there was indeed another Black Tortoise Immortal Medicine in Immortal Mountain.

Immortal Medicine was a rare treasure of the world, so the more the better. Ying Hao therefore reached out without hesitation.

"How dare you!"

The furious voice rang out again. By this point, the Supremes of Immortal Mountain could no longer endure it.

Barging into the core region of Immortal Mountain was one thing, but he actually dared to reach out and seize the Black Tortoise Immortal Medicine?

One had to know that before this, Haotian the Great Emperor had already cut away part of Immortal Mountain and taken the Ancient Dao Comprehension Tea Tree.

If they still showed no reaction, Immortal Mountain would become a laughingstock in everyone's eyes from this day forward.

"Enough nonsense! Come out and fight this Emperor!"

Ying Hao remained as direct and straightforward as ever. So much time had passed—had any Supreme from Immortal Mountain emerged?

He was not afraid of a battle, yet the Supremes of Immortal Mountain had lost their nerve!

"Since you're seeking death, we'll grant your wish!"

As the voice rang out, a figure walked out from the core region of Immortal Mountain and blocked Ying Hao's outstretched hand.

It was a Daoist dressed in Daoist robes and wearing a violet-gold crown. A sacred, inviolable aura radiated from his body.

That feeling was as though he were facing a supreme god—and one worshiped by countless living beings at that.

"You're merely a deity, yet you dare fight this Emperor? Bring out the Undying Heavenly Emperor!"

Ying Hao was not unfamiliar with the aura of the person before him. In Tang Gu, he had personally witnessed faith power condensing.

The aura on this person was extremely similar to faith power, thereby revealing the identity of the Daoist before him.

Although he was a Supreme, he was extremely special. He was not a true living being, but a Faith Body.

It was already exceedingly difficult for a Faith Body to develop spiritual intelligence. To achieve the effect of the later Amitabha the Great Emperor was practically harder than ascending to heaven.

What was more, to grant a Faith Body life and turn it into an existence comparable to a Supreme was even more inconceivable.

Only the Undying Heavenly Emperor had opened the Primordial Era and been revered as the supreme god by the Myriad Ancient Races, thereby condensing an immense amount of faith power.

Moreover, only a powerhouse like the Undying Heavenly Emperor could attain such extraordinary achievements in the path of faith.

The Daoist before him had been transformed from the Faith Body of the Undying Heavenly Emperor. His name was Undying Daoist.

Undying Daoist was first shocked, then flew into a rage. A terrifying aura erupted as he took the initiative to meet Ying Hao's outstretched hand.

"Rumble!"

When the enormous roar rang out, a terrifying aura erupted from the Big Dipper Star Domain, sweeping across the cosmic starry sky and leaving countless living beings terrified.

An Emperor battle!

An earth-shaking battle between an Emperor and a Supreme—throughout the ages, there had not been many such battles, and every one of them had been boundlessly terrifying.

Now, an earth-shaking battle had erupted in Immortal Mountain. This would be a shocking battle that affected the entire structure of the world!
