The task of comforting Ye Fan's spirit in heaven so he could rest easy in death went smoothly.
Once Ruthless and the others deliberately sought out Weird Quasi-Immortal Emperors they were certain they could suppress and kill in a single strike, not one escaped their "deadly hands."
After moving from the light into the shadows, Ruthless and the others were no longer as prominent as before, but their victories were no fewer.
Nor had they been exposed. No one had discovered that the Quasi-Immortal Emperors who had vanished years ago had reappeared and were still killing in secret.
The Weird Immortal Emperors had only just performed a Resurrection Projection. There was no way they would do so again anytime soon.
Time passed. Ruthless and the others lived on in the mortal world, while Ye Fan recovered his vitality within the Death Domain.
His consciousness grew stronger and more complete, gradually taking on a body and a Primordial Spirit.
One day, a pair of eyes lit up within the void, driving away the eternal darkness and bringing light and life.
Chaos exploded, the void dispersed, time reversed, and the Myriad Worlds shook.
A Heavenly Emperor Dao Fruit leaped from the void and chaos, blossoming with boundless light. The supreme might of an Emperor spread outward, bearing down across time and the Myriad Realms.
At that moment, the most majestic, upright, and exalted thing in the world was born.
Then, with a thunderous boom, the countless domains of the Heavens and the River of Time shuddered as though struck by a great earthquake.
Living beings across every stretch of space-time, past, present, and future, heard that Great Dao's Voice. Their hearts jolted with terror, and they looked up at the sky in bewilderment.
The sound was too terrifying. It shook their souls.
