The four Youthful Emperors joined forces. No one in the world could withstand them.
Rumble!
Heaven and earth collapsed, the sun and moon reversed. Ji Hao unleashed his phenomenon, nearly linking it all together, yet he still could not escape being blasted apart.
Blood and bones scattered across the ground. His Divine Soul emerged from the Tai Chi Diagram. At the critical moment, that blow had used the phenomenon to stall the Four Emperors briefly, allowing him to summon back the Tai Chi Diagram and barely preserve his life.
"I wonder how Ye Fan survived against the Nine Emperors. This is too brutal." Ji Hao felt like weeping without tears. Although he had undergone a complete transformation, he had yet to master many of his abilities. Some of them, he was using for the first time.
For example, this pair of Divine Eyes. Although Ji Hao could wield power sufficient to contend with Youthful Emperors, their limits went far beyond that. He had only developed the barest fraction of their potential.
Unfortunately, he had no time!
"Still, I don't necessarily have to comprehend them slowly. I can master them quickly through battle and blood!" Ji Hao no longer stubbornly focused on restoring his Physical Body. His Divine Sense transformed into a silver-white God of War, while the Tai Chi Diagram became divine armor around him. Gripping the Dragon-Pattern Black Gold Sword, he strode forward with overwhelming momentum and charged straight at the Five Emperors!
The powers of time and space within his eyes were continuously being unearthed. The potential contained within this pair of Divine Eyes far exceeded his imagination!
The azure spatial power in his right eye erupted all at once. A beam carrying immense power capable of shattering the Void shot toward Void Emperor.
Rumble!
Space shattered layer by layer, forcing Void Emperor back. Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.
Among the Emperors present, Void Emperor and Great Emperor Hengyu had almost no secrets before him. He knew every Secret Technique they possessed, as well as how to counter them!
Ji Hao's blood boiled and burned. He activated the Fortune Secret Art, restoring his Physical Body while fighting the Five Emperors and constantly evolving his own techniques and Dao.
He exchanged a palm strike with Western Empress, took a punch from Great Emperor Hengyu head-on, used the Dragon-Pattern Black Gold Sword and Saint Spirit Furnace together to suppress Taihuang, and released the Power of Time from his other pupil to continue battling Great Emperor Wu Shi. He was nearly invincible!
"Ah!"
Ji Hao reassembled his Physical Body. His disheveled hair flew wildly as his aura suddenly surged. Divine Radiance flickered across his body, and spatial chains appeared in his hands, lashing out to trap Void Emperor. Mysterious patterns spread from his eye sockets to his forehead.
The Heavenly Eye opened!
Buzz!
No one saw exactly what happened—not even Ji Hao himself. He only felt the Imperial Divine Power within him drain away in an instant. Then a flash of white light vanished, and Void Emperor's body slowly collapsed, leaving behind only part of his Imperial Dao laws, which the Tai Chi Diagram swept away.
"Kill!"
Ji Hao's Divine Soul merged with his Physical Body. His eyes shone brilliantly as the powers of time and space combined. Squeezing out the last trace of Divine Power within him, he imprisoned every Emperor!
"Space-Time Prison!"
Space froze, while time became black and white. Everything before him resembled a Scroll, with the Four Emperors battling upon it in vivid detail.
Ji Hao took out a bottle of Sacred Spring Water and tilted his head back to drink it. A surge of Life Essence poured forth, replenishing the Divine Power within him and healing his injuries.
At the same time, tiny "gates" throughout his body opened, and threads of Divine Power flowed out.
He stretched his limbs, every pore devouring the Essence Qi of heaven and earth like a Black Hole. It swallowed all the Essence Qi within dozens of miles, and that was not all—the Thunder Cloud overhead was also absorbed by more than half.
Crack, crack!
As he absorbed the Essence Qi of heaven and earth and the Lightning Tribulation, cracks also began appearing across the Space-Time Prison.
Ji Hao ignored them. The Saint Spirit Furnace transformed back into Living Flame. When he had designed the Saint Spirit Furnace, he had made it capable of switching between flame and furnace, just like the Tai Chi Diagram, with two forms.
The Living Flame continuously scorched his body, refining and elevating it. It destroyed, repaired, and reassembled him.
His body advanced another step.
The Tai Chi Diagram hovered above his head, cascading strands of Immortal Qi. The tiny figure formed from his Divine Soul wielded the Dragon-Pattern Black Gold Sword, while Living Flame burned all over his body, making him seem like a God of War wreathed in blazing fire.
Bang!
The Space-Time Prison shattered like a mirror. Great Emperor Wu Shi stepped out first. The All-Encompassing Stars trembled for him, and the Great Dao of heaven and earth followed at his side. He was supreme and divine!
"Come fight!"
Ji Hao circulated the Battle Saint Method, Battle Intent coursing through his body. His pair of Divine Eyes burst forth with boundless Divine Light as he took the initiative and clashed with Great Emperor Wu Shi.
Great Emperor Wu Shi threw a punch, and six regions of heaven and earth moved with it, as if he meant to overturn heaven and earth and send all living beings into Samsara. His Blood Qi shot through the cosmic Void as he suppressed Ji Hao.
Six Paths Reincarnation Fist!
As the son of a Great Success Sacred Body, the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist displayed extraordinary might in his hands.
"Buzhou Severing, Southeast Collapse!"
Countless Secret Techniques flashed through Ji Hao's mind before finally converging into a single fist art. A Primordial Divine Mountain supporting heaven and earth appeared behind him. As he punched, the Primordial Divine Mountain broke apart with it.
Mount Buzhou broke, heaven and earth shifted, and the sun and moon overturned. Carrying an earth-shattering, heaven-destroying force, it collided with Great Emperor Wu Shi's Six Paths Reincarnation Fist.
Rumble!
A tremendous explosion rang out. Ji Hao was sent flying, stark white bone exposed from his arm, while Great Emperor Wu Shi merely retreated several dozen steps.
A gleam flashed in Ji Hao's eyes. He said excitedly, "Again!"
The Primordial Divine Mountain reappeared, this time even more solid. As it collapsed, it carried a feeling of heaven and earth entering Samsara—the old Epoch perishing and a new Epoch beginning. That too was a form of Samsara!
He had absorbed part of the essence of the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist. That was the difference between cultivators and Humanoid Lightning: they were merely imprints, while Ji Hao could absorb their Dao and techniques to continuously grow stronger.
He threw a punch, only to meet the Imperial Dragon Aura. As the fist emerged, heaven and earth seemed to overturn. Nothing could be seen, save for dragon roars shaking the Nine Heavens from the other side!
After all, those facing him were not truly Ancient Emperors in their youth. They would launch sneak attacks!
Hengyu Fist, Star Palm, and the Beginningless Bell came crashing down together, shattering the Void. Three Emperors attacked at once with unstoppable force!
"Zha!"
Ji Hao roared. The Dragon-Pattern Black Gold Sword, carrying the power of his Divine Soul, transformed into a flying sword and shot toward Taihuang.
Immortals Kneel at the Sword's Draw!
The Dao Sound slightly affected the Humanoid Lightning behind him. In truth, this kind of move was only effective the first time. Once they were prepared, it would no longer work. Which Ancient Emperor had not fought his way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, one punch and one kick at a time? Countless battles had long pushed their battle instincts to the limit.
Just as Ji Hao was about to use the power of his Divine Eyes again to stop them, several Ancient Emperors suddenly dispersed and vanished.
The Heavenly Tribulation also disappeared.
"So the time was already up!" Regret filled Ji Hao's eyes as he muttered to himself. Although Humanoid Lightning had appeared during this tribulation, it was ultimately only a Four Extremes Grand Perfection tribulation. Its duration was limited.
That was why Ji Hao had fought so openly and fiercely from the very beginning. Time was limited, and opportunities to fight Ancient Emperors were far too rare. He treasured them deeply.
