Within Immortal Mountain, terrifying forces intertwined as countless great mountains shook violently, as if they might collapse at any moment.

At the critical moment, countless Array Patterns lit up. Several Supremes also took action, finally protecting those mountains that were about to collapse.

Undying Daoist's face was filled with disbelief. His body trembled uncontrollably as he retreated three steps in succession.

Ying Hao's expression was cold. His great hand continued reaching unwaveringly toward the core of Immortal Mountain, and he grabbed the Black Tortoise Immortal Medicine in one motion.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. The mission reward has been issued. Please claim it shortly!"

A hint of a smile appeared on Ying Hao's face. To him, this counted as an unexpected surprise.

Actually, the moment he saw the Black Tortoise Immortal Medicine, the system's notification had already sounded in his mind.

"Ding! Sacred Beast Black Tortoise detected. A mission is now being issued!

Mission One: Suppress Sacred Beast Black Tortoise. Reward: Black Tortoise Bloodline!

Mission Two: Escape before Sacred Beast Black Tortoise. Reward: Seventy-two Earthly Fiend Arts: Water Escape!

Warning! The Saint-level Black Tortoise race possesses formidable strength. Please choose carefully, host!"

Ying Hao nearly cried tears of joy. The system had finally shown some courage for once and issued a decent mission.

To complete the mission, let alone Undying Daoist taking action—even if all the Supremes in Immortal Mountain attacked together, he still would not stop.

"How is this possible?"

Undying Daoist's face was filled with disbelief. He actually hadn't been able to stop Haotian the Great Emperor?

Haotian the Great Emperor was clearly already old and nearing the end of his life. Shouldn't less than one-tenth of his strength remain?

In that clash just now, how could he have been the one who suffered?

He looked at Haotian the Great Emperor again. This junior was indeed extraordinary; he had already shocked him once just now.

Not many people knew that he was the Heavenly Emperor Faith Body, yet Haotian the Great Emperor had seen through it at a glance.

Could it be that Haotian the Great Emperor had truly attained the pinnacle of Fortune and possessed unimaginable strength?

No! He didn't believe it!

There could never be a second Heavenly Emperor in this world!

"Let us battle beyond the domain!"

Ying Hao's expression was cold. He didn't want to destroy the Big Dipper Star Domain, much less let countless living beings be caught up in this battle.

Undying Daoist snorted coldly and followed close behind. His disheveled hair fluttered, and his eyes were so cold they could freeze the universe.

Once the bow was drawn, there was no turning back. Since he had chosen to act, he at least had to probe the depths of Haotian the Great Emperor's strength.

In the blink of an eye, Ying Hao had arrived at the edge of the universe. The gazes of the Supremes from the Forbidden Zones shifted there as well.

The battle between a Great Emperor and a Supreme was destined to draw the attention of the entire world!

Most of the Supremes' gazes converged on Haotian the Great Emperor. They desperately wanted to know the true extent of his strength now.

Haotian the Great Emperor not only possessed an exceptionally special physique, but could also forcibly attain the Dao. To them, this was a fatal temptation.

The moment Haotian the Great Emperor showed even the slightest sign of decline, none of the Supremes would be willing to miss such a grand feast.

Ying Hao stared coldly at Undying Heavenly Emperor. Without another word, he threw a punch that crushed the ten directions of the universe.

"I have no desire to entangle myself with you for long. Ten moves is the limit. If I cannot suppress you within ten moves, I will end my own life!"

Ying Hao's gaze toward Undying Daoist was filled with disdain. Blazing True Sun Fire surged forth, transforming into a sea of flames.

True Sun Fire was overbearing beyond measure, incinerating all things. Even great stars could not withstand such domineering flames.

"How arrogant! I wasn't afraid of you even at your peak. Now that you're old and decrepit, you think you're worthy?"

Undying Daoist seemed to have suffered immense humiliation. He immediately flew into a rage as Ancient Emperor Laws spread out and shook the void.

He struck with one palm, producing a buzzing tremor. True Phoenix appeared in the world and swooped down to kill—this was the strongest Imperial Dao strike.

"Rumble!"

With a single strike, a vast expanse of star ocean was destroyed, filling the edge of the universe with an aura of destruction.

Amid clanging sounds, Emperor Dao Law collided with Imperial Dao Law. Billions of strands of Immortal Light and tens of millions of auspicious radiances filled the heavens.

Ying Hao and Undying Daoist both trembled violently, but Ying Hao remained standing where he was, while Undying Daoist took a step backward.

After one move, the victor was clear!

The entire world erupted in uproar, especially the Supremes in the Forbidden Zones. Every one of them wore an expression of shock.

Once might have been an accident, but twice with the same result was absolutely no accident.

"Haotian the Great Emperor is already twenty thousand years old and has truly entered his later years. How can he still be this powerful?"

"Incredible! He really is extraordinary. I seem to see the shadows of certain people in him!"

"The battle isn't over yet! Haotian the Great Emperor is powerful, but that doesn't mean he can hold on for long!"

In this battle, the strength displayed by Haotian the Great Emperor had broken all conventions, leaving the Supremes unable to understand it.

The same situation had only appeared in a handful of people, such as Emperor Zun, Undying Heavenly Emperor, and Divine Silkworm Ancient Emperor.

Could Haotian the Great Emperor be about to recreate the miracles once achieved by those world-shaking experts?

"Impossible!"

Undying Daoist's face turned livid. Imperial Dao Law spread around him as he broke through the void and unleashed another World-Shaking Strike.

This strike was terrifying beyond measure. Countless stars erupted in an instant, and the terrifying force surged forth, seemingly intent on tearing Ying Hao's body to pieces.

"There is nothing impossible!"

Ying Hao threw a punch. True Sun Fire surged violently, and his fist became dazzling, resembling a great sun hanging in the sky.

In the later generations, Great Emperor Wushi could suppress Undying Daoist in a quarter of an hour. Why couldn't he suppress Undying Daoist in ten moves?

The great sun hung in the sky, and boundless light and heat swallowed everything. Undying Daoist instantly experienced the agony of his body being scorched by flames.

In silence, Imperial Dao Law spread out and swept across hundreds of millions of miles. At this moment, Undying Daoist had actually undergone Ultimate Ascension.

He reclaimed his invincible Dao Fruit, once again becoming an invincible powerhouse of the entire world and erupting with the strongest battle power of his life.

"Rumble!"

A violent collision erupted. The area rang with clanging sounds, the void shook violently, sparks flew in all directions, and blood splattered into the starry sky.

The watching Supremes were all incomparably shocked. They had never imagined that this battle would develop into such a state.

The second move! It was only the second move, yet Undying Daoist had already been forced to the point of Ultimate Ascension.

If they weren't driven to the absolute limit, which Supreme would be willing to undergo Ultimate Ascension?

In other words, after only two exchanges, Undying Daoist had sensed the crisis of life and death and had no choice but to undergo Ultimate Ascension.

Had Haotian the Great Emperor already become this powerful?

Could it be that Haotian the Great Emperor had broken convention once more? After entering his later years, not only had he failed to weaken, he had instead become even stronger?

"It seems ten moves won't be necessary. I can suppress you in three!"

While battling Undying Daoist, Ying Hao had actually been observing him the entire time, hoping to uncover the secrets of the Faith Body.

It had to be admitted that Undying Heavenly Emperor had indeed achieved profound attainments in the path of faith. He could actually grant a Faith Body life.

However, he had already seen what he needed to see, and it was about time for this battle to end.

In the next moment, dazzling Immortal Light surged from the Heavenly Dao Record, cascading three thousand zhang of Chaos Qi as a vast world slowly emerged.

Yin and Yang Qi circulated as the immense world slowly descended, covering Heaven and Earth and suppressing everything!
