Five Great Emperors Make Their Move!

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Ji Hao transformed into an undefeated war god and became entangled in battle with three Great Emperors, constantly using the Battle Saint Method to unleash all kinds of lethal secret arts.

Taihuang's gaze blazed as he strolled calmly out of the void, his body wreathed in endless Imperial Dragon Aura, his expression utterly cold.

The roar of dragons rang without end as the Imperial Dragon Aura transformed into true dragons and coiled around his fist.

He exchanged a punch with Ji Hao.

Ji Hao was sent flying back more than ten steps, every step making the void tremble.

A slender jade hand came crashing down. Though its owner was a woman, she was even more overbearing than a man. With every movement, the Great Dao of heaven and earth followed her, and boundless divine force descended, nearly invincible.

Ji Hao continuously unleashed all kinds of secret arts. Everything he had learned before now seemed to fuse together completely. If there had been a game interface, then above Ji Hao's head it would have constantly displayed: Innate Grand Void Astral Qi experience +100, Void Great Handprint experience +150, Void Severing Two Realms experience +10, Taiji Seal experience +1000, level up!

Fighting to the point of madness, Ji Hao followed his body's instincts and let out a roar. "Zha!"

It was like the sound of heaven and earth being created, and also like a Heavenly Emperor's Dao shout. It carried immense power and shattered patch after patch of thunderclouds.

It contained part of the true essence of the Six-Syllable True Words, though it had already completely fused into Ji Hao's own methods.

The three young Great Emperors were all dazed for a moment. Seizing the chance, Ji Hao used his hand as a blade and unleashed Void Severing Two Realms at Taihuang.

Taihuang's offensive power was unmatched in the world. Whether before or now, he had placed unimaginable pressure on Ji Hao. The opponent's combat methods were far too terrifying. Though this was only an imprint left behind by heaven and earth, its battle awareness was still incomparably frightening. Truly worthy of a young Great Emperor!

"Clang!"

A distant bell rang out, freeing them from its control. Ji Hao's expression immediately turned grave. He had heard this bell before, and more than once.

He had heard it when breaking through the Four Extremes, and he had also heard it in Purple Mountain. It was the Beginningless Bell.

For the Beginningless Bell to appear within the heavenly tribulation meant that the Beginningless Great Emperor had arrived!

"Alas!"

Ji Hao raised a hand in summons. The Tai Chi Diagram flew over and hovered above his head, releasing streams of yin and yang qi. Then he looked toward the palace in the heavens.

Before he could make out the figure clearly, an ancient bell came crashing down. The Beginningless Bell was like a towering heavenly mountain as it descended to suppress him. Ji Hao had no choice but to form seals with both hands again and evolve the Taiji Seal.

Within that majestic cluster of palaces, several more humanoid bolts of lightning appeared. Their features could not be seen clearly, but every one of them carried suffocating pressure.

Another figure stepped out from among the humanoid lightning bolts standing within the palaces. An ancient mirror hung above his head, while the Great Dao of the void swirled around his body. In an instant, he merged into the void and arrived behind Ji Hao. Divine light shot from the ancient mirror above him and struck Ji Hao directly in the chest.

"Void Emperor!" Ji Hao staggered back several steps and coughed up a mouthful of blood. He looked at the ordinary middle-aged man before him with complicated feelings. It was hard to imagine that someone who would be impossible to recognize in a crowd was actually a Great Emperor.

One had to know that the essence of cultivation was evolution. No matter what one had originally looked like, one would eventually become a handsome man or beautiful woman, unless one harbored an obsession.

Ji Hao spread his arms. His blood qi transformed into dragons as he gathered the power of heaven and earth and struck at the Void Emperor.

The Great Void Technique appeared again. It came without a trace and vanished without a shadow, evading Ji Hao's attack. Immediately afterward, a pitch-black great handprint suddenly appeared and slammed into Ji Hao's chest.

"Zha!"

He used the Zha Syllable again, only then integrating another portion of the Void Secret Technique. He shook the void and forced the Void Emperor's imprint to reveal itself.

It had to be said that battle truly was the fastest way to grow. In just a short time, under such intense combat, Ji Hao grew rapidly.

One secret art after another came readily to hand as he battled the four young Great Emperors in a chaotic melee. However, he no longer had the ease he had at the beginning. From time to time, the Void Emperor's mirror light carved bloody wounds across him, or the Primordial Emperor Sword severed one of his arms. Fortunately, the Fortune Secret Art was powerful enough to let him hold on.

However, the balance was quickly broken. Another figure emerged from the immortal palace. The Beginningless Bell flew above his head and released streams of chaotic qi. His face could not be seen clearly, but his body seemed to merge with the Dao itself. The myriad Daos of heaven and earth drew close to him. Even though he was merely a figure imprinted by the heavenly tribulation, divine radiance still shimmered from his flesh.

A fierce light appeared in Ji Hao's eyes. Though they were all human Great Emperors, the gap between Great Emperors could sometimes be enormous, such as Wu Shi!

If the Great Emperors were paying players in this game called Shrouding the Heavens, then the Beginningless Great Emperor was an administrator reincarnated. His talent in every aspect had been maxed out.

At least before becoming a saint, no one could rival him. Not even other Great Emperors could. They would only end up being beaten to pieces.

The Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo was simply too powerful. Among the Great Emperors throughout history, only Wan Qing and Undying could fight him before entering the Saint Realm. Perhaps Ruthless could as well, but the chances were slim.

After all, Ruthless's talent made it difficult for him to stand shoulder to shoulder with Wu Shi in the early stages.

The Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art only came into its power later on. At the very least, one had to transform into a Chaotic Body before the gap could be erased.

Ji Hao used his hand as a blade, preparing to use the forbidden secret art within the Void Scripture again. He would deal with one young Great Emperor first.

Young Wu Shi remained expressionless. The moment he attacked, he evolved a forbidden secret art. Time seemed to freeze at once. Ji Hao could not strike out at all. Instead, he was being drawn back, as though everything were returning to its origin.

"Boom!"

His body was shattered for the first time. The Beginningless Great Emperor immobilized him while the Western Empress Pagoda, Primordial Emperor Sword, Hengyu Furnace, and Void Mirror crashed down, giving him no chance at all.

He was forcibly blasted apart, turning into a rain of blood that filled the sky.

"Fortune Myriad Manifestations, forge for me an undying body!" Ji Hao shouted with his divine sense. Light flowed as the shattered blood mist reformed into Ji Hao.

"Clang!"

The Beginningless Bell rang again, and ripples spread outward. Ji Hao's newly reconstructed body was about to return to a state of blood mist.

Beginningless Technique!

"I ******"

"You're using forbidden arts right from the start, targeting me this hard!"

"I haven't even gone to dig up your essence blood yet!"

"Then let's compare!" Ji Hao became ruthless. The power of time lit up in his left eye as he shone it toward the Beginningless Bell. Heaven and earth turned black and white, and even the ripples were frozen.

However, it was not stable. The ripples were still spreading outward. Ji Hao's body was continuously torn between blood mist and reconstruction.

However, there was more than one opponent, and they had no sense of fair play either.

The four imperial weapons crashed down again. Ji Hao summoned the Tai Chi Diagram and transformed it into the Other Shore Golden Bridge, suppressing the surrounding space and firmly blocking them.

"Clang!"

The Other Shore Golden Bridge was sent flying backward. The Western Empress Pagoda and Hengyu Furnace broke through the obstruction and continued crashing toward him.

A streak of black light flashed past. The Dragon-Pattern Black Gold Sword moved in to rescue him, only to be blocked by the Primordial Emperor Sword.

The Saint Spirit Furnace lifted its lid and spewed boundless flames, colliding with the Hengyu Furnace. Clearly, though the Nine-Colored Divine Fire was powerful, it was still somewhat inferior to the imprinted Hengyu Furnace before him.

The Western Empress Pagoda was also entangled by the Tai Chi Diagram, along with the Void Mirror.

But there were not only four imperial weapons here. The four young Great Emperors had not even attacked yet!
