Is Emperor Haotian truly in his twilight years?

Ying Hao stared coldly at the Undying Daoist. The Heavenly Dao Record was suppressed, its terrifying power shattering everything.

The Undying Daoist would never know that, even now, he hadn't revealed his full strength.

That's right! He was indeed in his twilight years, his Blood Essence declining, and his current strength had weakened.

But that depended on who he was compared to!

If his peak combat power was 100, his combat power in his twilight years was 95.

The Undying Daoist's original combat power was 70, and even after his Ultimate Ascension, it only reached 80.

Wasn't it normal for a combat power of 95 to suppress a combat power of 80?

The Undying Daoist roared, Imperial Law surging. The True Phoenix was born, crying out to the nine heavens, meeting the Heavenly Dao Record.

On his face was shock and confusion, but more than anything, it was fear.

Why was he so strong? How could he be so strong?

He had already undergone his Ultimate Ascension, becoming an unrivaled powerhouse in the world once more!

Searching the entire world, he couldn't find any opponents. Why was he still inferior to a Late-Stage Great Emperor?

The vast world, slowly descending, condensed immeasurable power, making him feel heavy pressure.

He refused to believe it, nor did he want to surrender. The True Phoenix cried out, its five-colored light illuminating the world, crashing into the Heavenly Dao Record.

"Rumble!"

Amidst the deafening roar, the True Phoenix coughed up blood, its five-colored light dimming and slowly dissipating, leaving only a dumbfounded Undying Daoist.

The Heavenly Dao Record descended, suppressing the Undying Daoist from the edge of the universe all the way to the Big Dipper Star Domain.

Within the Immortal Mountain, a great peak rose from the ground, flew out of the Immortal Mountain, and was absorbed into the Heavenly Dao Record.

The Heavenly Dao Record descended from the sky, and a five-fingered mountain appeared outside the Immortal Mountain, emitting a deafening roar.

Runes intertwined on the five-fingered mountain, and the True Sun Fire surged. The Undying Daoist's screams abruptly stopped.

The entire Big Dipper Star Domain fell silent. All living beings were dumbfounded, including the Supreme Beings in the Forbidden Zones.

"The Undying Daoist was suppressed just like that? How long did this battle even last?"

"They said ten moves to suppress, but it only took three. Haotian the Great Emperor is truly terrifying!"

"Is he really in his twilight years? Getting stronger with age, becoming more monstrous with age, is this the power of a Human Race Great Emperor?"

If Haotian the Great Emperor had suppressed the Undying Daoist during his peak, no one would have found it surprising.

After all, when Haotian the Great Emperor first forcefully Achieved Dao, he had killed a Source God in the Underworld right before everyone's eyes.

But Haotian the Great Emperor was in his twilight years, and he suppressed the Undying Daoist, who had undergone Ultimate Ascension, in just three moves?

Did Haotian the Great Emperor's strength not decrease but increase after entering his twilight years?

Ying Hao descended from the sky, the Heavenly Dao Record above his head. He stepped into the Immortal Mountain again, walking step by step towards the depths.

With each step, the heavens and earth rumbled, as if he were stepping on the hearts of all the Supreme Beings, making their expressions grow heavier.

Reaching the core area of the Immortal Mountain, Ying Hao looked coldly at the remaining Supreme Beings within.

"Now, who else wants to fight me?"

Ying Hao's tone was calm, neither arrogant nor mocking, as if he were stating the most ordinary of matters.

The Supreme Beings of the Immortal Mountain fell silent. The example of the Undying Daoist was right before their eyes; who would dare to fight Haotian the Great Emperor?

The Immortal Ascension Path had not yet opened, and there was no hope of Becoming Immortal in sight. Who wanted to die?

The Supreme Beings exchanged glances. They were extremely wary of Haotian the Great Emperor's strength, but more than that, it was the unknown.

Even now, they still couldn't gauge Haotian the Great Emperor's depth, nor did they know his limits.

The unknown was often the most terrifying!

After all, no one knew what earth-shattering combat power Haotian the Great Emperor could unleash if he went all out.

Within the Immortal Mountain, Ying Hao looked at the Supreme Beings, and the Supreme Beings looked back at Ying Hao. The atmosphere gradually became tense.

The entire Big Dipper Star Domain was the same, a heavy pressure shrouding heaven and earth, making countless people struggle to breathe.

Ying Hao's gaze swept through the depths of the Immortal Mountain. After confirming there were no good things left, he let out a sneer and turned to leave.

The Supreme Beings in the Immortal Mountain exchanged glances and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The best-case scenario had fortunately not occurred.

If Haotian the Great Emperor had pushed too hard, even if they were unwilling, they would have been forced to fight him.

In that case, whether they won or lost, they would have to pay a heavy price.

Only the Supreme Beings in other Forbidden Zones would be happy!

Under the gaze of all, Ying Hao walked out of the Immortal Mountain. With a single step, he had arrived outside the Divine Ruins.

The Supreme Beings in the Immortal Mountain, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, had their eyes light up and immediately became overjoyed.

It is not inequality that is feared, but scarcity.

If everyone were in the same situation, the events that had just transpired would not have been so difficult to accept.

In the Divine Ruins, several Supreme Beings exchanged glances, their expressions growing increasingly grave.

Just moments ago, they had been gloating, but now that it was their turn, they couldn't manage a smile.

Haotian the Great Emperor had entered the Divine Ruins. Should they fight, or pretend to be dead?

As Ying Hao stepped into the Divine Ruins, a system prompt sounded in his mind.

"Ding! Host is approaching the Southern Heavenly Gate of the Heavenly Court. A mission is now being issued!

Mission 1: Enter the Southern Heavenly Gate and retreat safely. Reward: One Peach of Immortality!

Mission 2: Quickly distance yourself from the Southern Heavenly Gate. Reward: Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Arts - Immobilization!

Warning! Warning! The Heavenly Court has countless experts and numerous powerhouses. Host, please choose cautiously!"

Ying Hao's heart stirred, and he looked ahead. The area was filled with remnants and Dao Traces everywhere. The most eye-catching sight was a colossal Heavenly Gate.

The Southern Heavenly Gate, a relic of the Ancient Heavenly Court from the Mythological Era, had fallen into the Divine Ruins after the Heavenly Court's collapse.

Without a word, he directly reached out his massive hand and uprooted the enormous Southern Heavenly Gate, storing it away.

Then, he extended his hand again, seizing an Earth Vein and holding it in his palm. Wisps of ethereal immortal mist began to rise.

This was a Divine Spring, gushing from the Earth Vein, never drying up since ancient times. It emerged from the ground only to seep back into the earth's core, forming a cycle.

Afterward, he stepped deeper into the Divine Ruins, where several Supreme Beings were already waiting for him.

"Which of you wishes to fight this Emperor?"

Ying Hao had asked the same question once before in the Immortal Mountain, and now he repeated it.

But the effect was drastically different this time!

In the Immortal Mountain, the Undying Daoist had emerged to fight him. However, the Supreme Beings of the Divine Ruins remained silent.

Silence was the best response in this situation!

Ying Hao let out a sneer and directly reached out his massive hand, grasping towards the depths of the Divine Ruins.

Like the Immortal Mountain, the Divine Ruins were also a Forbidden Zone, and clearly, there was Immortal Medicine within!

However, having witnessed the precedent set in the Immortal Mountain, the Supreme Beings of the Divine Ruins had already hidden their Immortal Medicine well.

"How dare you!"

"Insolent!"

"You go too far!"

The Supreme Beings in the Divine Ruins were enraged. Haotian the Great Emperor's forceful actions were forcing them to act!

"Rumble!"

Several Supreme Beings attacked simultaneously. Terrifying powers intertwined, and immense roars echoed from the Divine Ruins, reaching the entire Big Dipper Star Domain.

"Is that all?"

Ying Hao glanced into the depths of the Divine Ruins and turned to leave.

The Supreme Beings in the Divine Ruins had ashen faces, but not a single one of them made another move.
