"One Punch One Supreme." "How could I possibly miss such a feast?"

Longevity Heavenly Lord sat cross-legged atop his war chariot and spoke calmly.

He had once studied the Chaos Body, believing that this physique contained the secret to immortality.

Yet after researching it for countless years without result, a Chaos Body had emerged as an emperor in this era—and displayed astonishing power.

Thus, when the Human Emperor underwent Dao Transformation in his Late Years, he naturally emerged to seize the Chaos Body's origin.

"Human Emperor, come out and fight me!"

The Supreme wielding the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Spear looked toward Ziwei Star, his words filled with bone-chilling Killing Intent.

As for the remaining Sea of Reincarnation Supreme, an inexplicable unease rose within him.

It was as though some great terror was about to descend.

Suddenly, the many Supremes sensed something and turned toward Ziwei Star.

A tall, upright young man dressed in black strolled out from Ziwei Star.

The Human Emperor Sword, which had been floating above the Star River and drawing in Chaos Qi, flew directly into his hand.

This was the Human Emperor whom everyone believed to be on the verge of passing away.

Yet the Human Emperor showed no trace whatsoever of his Late Years.

Myriad Daos wailed beneath his feet, and all laws submitted to him.

"Who wishes to fight me?" Chen Zhao swept his gaze around, his voice brimming with immense Fighting Spirit.

"Then let us fight in the Mythological Battlefield."

In the blink of an eye, everyone moved from the Ziwei Star Region to the Mythological Battlefield.

Terrifying fluctuations of the Chaos Great Dao lingered within the Mythological Battlefield, as though heaven and earth were about to be remade.

The traces of the previous battle with the Lord of Reincarnation still remained, continuing to emit terrifying fluctuations.

Though the Human Emperor released no aura at all, the many Supremes present felt immense pressure.

It was as if they were facing an unsurpassable being. Even without releasing any aura, the Human Emperor made them feel incomparably stifled.

This was the Human Emperor in his Late Years?

Huge Waves surged through the hearts of the many Supremes. How did the current Human Emperor look even remotely like he was in his Late Years?

His majestic vitality gave them the sensation of facing a True Dragon, more terrifying than they had been at their own peaks.

If the Human Emperor's state counted as his Late Years, then what were they? These Supremes had once been Heavenly Lords and Ancient Emperors, invincible beings who ruled the Nine Heavens Ten Earths.

The moment the Human Emperor appeared, they immediately understood what was going on.

The Human Emperor had clearly set a trap to deceive them. His vitality was so abundant that he was even more powerful than they had been at their peaks.

After the Human Emperor appeared, the Chaos Great Dao above the Nine Heavens, which had been suppressing Myriad Daos, stabilized once more, and the aura of impending Dao Transformation vanished.

"Emperor Lord!"

The instant the Human Emperor appeared, Longevity Heavenly Lord lost focus for a moment and blurted out.

He felt as if he were facing the Emperor Lord of old, leaving his mind shaken.

"So you have only just entered your Second Life. The lifespan of a Chaos Body is truly this vast."

The Sea of Reincarnation Supreme thrust out his Dragon Pattern Black Gold Spear, unleashing boundless power.

The spear moved like a dragon, radiating bone-piercing chill as it shot straight toward Chen Zhao's heart.

Black Light tore across the Star River, carrying power capable of destroying the Universe.

The Dragon Pattern Black Gold Spear surged forth, as though transforming into a black dragon soaring into the sky, its Emperor Dao Laws suppressing the Universe.

Chen Zhao merely glanced at the incoming Dragon Pattern Black Gold Spear.

He put away the Human Emperor Sword, raised his hand, and attacked forward, throwing a punch right from the start.

That punch erupted, accompanied by the terrifying Chaos Great Dao that suppressed everything.

Boom! An unbelievable sight unfolded.

The Dragon Pattern Black Gold Spear collided with the Human Emperor's fist, and the entire spearhead was instantly crushed and warped.

The Dragon Pattern Black Gold Spear exploded outright, turning into Immortal Gold fragments that filled the sky.

The Immortal Gold fragments were like an exploding Star River, their brilliant radiance illuminating the entire Universe.

"No!"

When the Sea of Reincarnation Supreme saw the spear in his hand shatter, disbelief filled his eyes as he cried out.

The web between his thumb and forefinger was mangled into a bloody mess by the Immense Force.

One had to know that he had refined that spear for countless years. How could it fail to withstand even a single punch?

The moment the spear shattered, this Supreme chose Ultimate Sublimation.

The Xiantai on his forehead began to glow, its radiance illuminating past and present as a terrifying aura spread outward.

Ultimate Sublimation.

Faced with the overwhelmingly powerful Human Emperor, this Supreme chose to fight through Ultimate Sublimation.

Upon seeing the Supreme undergo Ultimate Sublimation, Killing Intent flickered in Chen Zhao's eyes. He raised his fist and struck forward.

How could he possibly stand by and watch this Forbidden Zone Supreme complete his Ultimate Sublimation?

At this moment, Chen Zhao was incomparably domineering. His raised fist smashed forward, determined to kill this Supreme on the spot.

A single punch had blown apart a Heavenly Lord Weapon.

Witnessing such a thing with their own eyes sent ripples through even the composed hearts of these Supremes.

Immediately afterward, the many Supremes saw the Human Emperor attempting to forcefully kill this Supreme.

Longevity Heavenly Lord and the others also knew that they could not simply watch the Human Emperor slay the Sea of Reincarnation Supreme.

They all struck at once, unleashing heaven-shaking power in an attempt to stop Chen Zhao.

The all-out attacks of four Supremes caused the entire Mythological Ancient Battlefield to tremble violently, with faint signs of collapse.

"You are nothing but chickens and dogs." Chen Zhao's tone was disdainful.

His left fist continued to smash forward with unstoppable force, while his right fist struck out to block.

With sweeping dominance, one punch shattered the full-force attacks of the four Supremes.

The Supreme who was undergoing Ultimate Sublimation used every method at his disposal in an attempt to block Chen Zhao's strike.

Yet before the fist that came crashing down, every possible method appeared utterly fragile.

Boom! The fist pierced through the Supreme's skull, forcefully interrupting his Ultimate Sublimation.

That punch blew apart the Supreme's head. His Xiantai shattered instantly, turning into blood and bone that rained across the Star River.

Chen Zhao knew that if Forbidden Zone Supremes completed Ultimate Sublimation, they could easily cause trouble, so he forcefully interrupted it.

He had originally thought that quite a few Forbidden Zone Supremes would emerge this time, but only a handful had come.

After entering his Second Life, Chen Zhao could feel his own strength.

Ordinary Supremes could not withstand more than a few of his punches unless they underwent Ultimate Sublimation.

He had originally planned for the Two Human Emperors to protect his Dao during his Second Life Transformation.

He had not expected the process to go so smoothly, without the slightest setback.

He had deliberately created that aura of Dao Transformation, intending to lure out some big fish. Instead, only a few small fish had hopped out.

Now, there was no need for the Two Human Emperors to emerge. His strength alone was enough to sweep everything aside.

After witnessing the Sea of Reincarnation Supreme's Ultimate Sublimation be interrupted before he was forcefully killed with a single punch, the Forbidden Zone Supremes present all wore shocked expressions.

A Supreme had been dealt with in merely a few punches. Since when had Supremes become so weak and fragile?

"Is the Chaos Body really this terrifying?" Longevity Heavenly Lord said distractedly.

A being of the same level had been easily killed, so simply and cleanly.

"Undergo Ultimate Sublimation." Yanluo Emperor's voice was hoarse, but his tone was resolute.

The terrifying combat strength to kill a Supreme in a few punches made them shudder in fear.

Aside from the Emperor Lord of the Heavenly Court in the past, who had made them take notice, there was now another Human Emperor.

Only by undergoing Ultimate Sublimation and seizing the Human Emperor Origin did they have a sliver of hope for survival.

Chen Zhao looked at the two Supremes from the Netherworld, amusement in his eyes.

Numinous Treasure Heavenly Lord, the aggrieved party, was on his way.

The victim of the Corpse Calamity had returned to face the source of the Corpse Calamity.

He would undoubtedly settle the karmic debt with the Netherworld.

The two Netherworld Supremes also noticed Chen Zhao's strange gaze.

That gaze was exceedingly strange. It held amusement, Killing Intent, and mockery. More importantly, in the Human Emperor's eyes, they seemed to be nothing more than dead men.

Under the Human Emperor's gaze, inexplicable unease rose in the hearts of the two Netherworld Supremes.

It was as though something was about to happen.

"Die!"

A voice filled with bone-chilling Killing Intent rang beside their ears.

Upon hearing that familiar voice, even though the two were Supreme-level figures, their entire bodies trembled.

For a moment, it was as though they had returned to the Mythological Era.
