In the Shrouding the Heavens Universe, another forty years passed in a rush. The Starry Sky was filled with traces left by the returning Dao Attainers, who had fought their way across it without finding an opponent among the Sages.
Those at the very front had now become Saints. For Return Dao Attainers to reach Sainthood seventy-five years after their emergence was, given who they were, almost absurdly slow.
In ancient times, records told of cultivators becoming Great Sages at just a hundred years old!

Because these were the Ancient Great Emperors returned. Looking back with the eyes they had gained since, they could make up for what they had failed to refine back then!
Anyone who became a Great Emperor naturally had foundations as solid as could be. Yet looking back from that height, they could indeed see regrets in their former cultivation.

Foundations for Immortal Ascension!
If they did not perfect every step, how could they surpass the achievements of their previous lives? How could they seize the lead
