With a sharp rebuke, a distinct spatial fluctuation occurred beside the ruthless person, and at the same time, with the help of the Heavenly Dao, a figure appeared.
This was a young man. When he appeared, he was dressed in white, did not carry any magical artifacts, and had a smile on his face. His aura was not particularly impressive.
However, the eighteen supreme beings opposite were greatly shocked. For some reason, the instant they saw the young man before them, they automatically knew his name—the Desolate Heavenly Emperor! The Desolate Heavenly Emperor who reigned supreme for eternity!
Suddenly, the boy opened his eyes, and upon seeing the eighteen incomplete Supreme Beings, his smile vanished. At the same time, his mind cleared, and a divine light instantly appeared in his eyes.
Then, the Desolate Emperor truly regained consciousness. Suddenly, a divine thought emerged from his mind, sweeping across the entire world.
With a single, deep breath, it devoured the surrounding chaotic energy, like a bottomless pit. Nourished by this chaotic energy, its aura surged the moment it awoke.
In fact, it took less than a breath to reach its limit, achieving the pinnacle of the half-step seventh level—that's the ruthless man's current strength!
"What is this? Is this the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths? How much time has passed? Great Emperor of the future, are you summoning me? Has my homeland fallen into such ruin?"
As he spoke, Shi Hao's eyes were filled with murderous intent, but at the same time, he also saw the newly born Heavenly Dao beside him.
"The creator of the Heavenly Dao, not bad, not bad. If I had the Heavenly Dao back then, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out so tragically. You're still an outsider, but since you've helped the world itself, it doesn't matter."
"The great emperors and ruthless people of later generations, not bad, you are quite good too. Hmm, and the Heavenly Dao, this is truly a wonderful thing. Even above the heavens, I can slowly feel this insignificant summons, so I separated a wisp of my primordial spirit and came here directly to temporarily take over this physical body. Let's take another look at this former homeland!" At this moment, Shi Hao was like a curious child, constantly observing everything around him.
Perhaps because he hadn't seen his hometown for a long time, Shi Hao became a bit talkative, chattering on and on.
As for Lin Yang, he was somewhat stunned. Although his Transformation of Freedom and Law was powerful, at most he could only create one, a false imprint left in the river of time. But now, he had actually created an authentic version.
Suddenly, I had this feeling that Orochimaru had just used the Impure World Reincarnation to revive the First Hokage, and when he tried to control him, the First Hokage just laughed, clapped his hands, and broke free from Orochimaru's control.
Fortunately, he transformed into the Great Law and summoned Shi Hao, who was also a righteous figure and could be considered a good person.
More importantly, Shi Hao had witnessed their encounters throughout the river of time, understood the Heavenly Dao, and abhorred the darkness and chaos. Therefore, although things had spiraled out of control, the problem wasn't significant; in fact, there were many benefits!
After all, a mark left between heaven and earth may be powerful, but how can it compare to the true original body?
To give a simple example, when Ye Fan was undergoing his tribulation, he could defeat a group of Great Emperors of the same level by himself. However, if he were to face Wu Shi, who was of the same level, he would definitely be the one who got beaten to a pulp.
After a short while, and after a careful exchange with the Heavenly Dao, Shi Hao understood the current situation, and at the same time, he released his killing intent without any concealment.
"In any case, with the Heavenly Dao, the world will eventually get better and better. Ruthless people and outsiders, this world is in your hands. As for this bunch of scum, leave them to me for now. By the way, we can continue to use the Great Transformation Technique to see if we can summon Willow God and the others. After all, they have been away from their homeland for a very, very long time."
As he spoke, Shi Hao glanced disdainfully at the eighteen incomplete Supreme Beings who had just completed their ultimate ascension. No, they were now flawless Great Emperors. In fact, in terms of combat strength, each of them possessed the power of a peak sixth-tier being.
After all, those who lack the strength either launch dark rebellions or retreat to the forbidden zones to recuperate.
"So what if you are the Desolate Heavenly Emperor? Let me see just how powerful this so-called unparalleled ruler truly is!"
"With me, there is no invincible! Kill!"
"What is gone will be gone. What right does a dead man have to look down on us?"
"kill!"
Seeing this, Shi Hao remained calm, his body radiating divine light, and a Bell of Time appeared. With a clang, the two Supreme Beings who had charged the fastest were instantly frozen in place. As for those behind, their movements were slowed down as a result. But this slight delay determined the fate of the two in front.
"Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Technique!"
Shi Hao clenched his right fist and unleashed a fist intent of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. After immobilizing the two Supreme Beings, he instantly attacked their souls, putting them into a state where their physical bodies were controlled and their souls were in chaos.
"The Grass Character Sword Technique!"
Then, he extended his left index and middle fingers, forming a sword shape with his fingers. The sword intent of the character "草" (grass) was activated instantly. This was not the half-baked sword intent of the ruthless man, but a powerful and genuine top-level Immortal King-level Ten Fierce Treasure Technique.
To be precise, by this point, the Grass-Character Sword Intent in Shi Hao's hands had long surpassed its initial level and could no longer be simply categorized as a Celestial King-level secret technique. If he were to unleash it in his true form, even a Celestial Emperor could be in grave danger if he wasn't careful!

Chapter 75: With the Jade Disc of Creation above his head, the Golden Lotus of Merit beneath his feet, and the Central Earth-Yellow Banner hanging at his waist...
"kill!"
Completely disregarding the incomplete supreme beings before him who had undergone the ultimate sublimation, Shi Hao's fists were like Mount Tai, one punch after another, each carrying an irresistible and overwhelming force, smashing the physical body and annihilating the mind!
Anyone whose physical body was smashed to pieces by Shi Hao's fists had no chance of their primordial spirit escaping. The scenario like Ye Fan's, where the primordial spirit left the body and then regenerated using the Secret Word Technique, simply did not occur!
On one hand, it's because these supreme beings are already quite incomplete, with pitifully little essence, blood, and vital energy in their bodies. Each time they restore their bodies, it's a form of harm to them.
This is also the main reason why, in the original work, Ye Fan dared to confront the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone head-on when he was only at the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor.
My body was destroyed by you? No problem! Just use the secret technique to restore my physical body! At most, it will consume some lifespan, but the Holy Body is in great shape, and lifespan is the last thing I lack.
Adhering to this philosophy, Ye Fan never retreated an inch despite his physical body being repeatedly destroyed, and his constant battles of attrition against the Supreme Beings were the fundamental reasons for his repeated victories!
On the other hand, it was because Shi Hao was too powerful at this moment. His physical body was injured in the blink of an eye, but he recovered in the next breath, nourished by waves of chaotic energy.
With the support of the Immortal Emperor's Peak Realm, although Shi Hao was limited by this physical body and only had the strength of a half-step seventh-order peak, his combat power was far superior to that of the ruthless man at this moment.
With countless secret techniques at his disposal, he maintained his peak condition at all times. Every punch and every kick was enough to obliterate a supreme being.
Therefore, in just a dozen breaths, the situation on the battlefield completely reversed. Of the original eighteen incomplete Supreme Beings, only ten remained!
Meanwhile, a willow tree appeared beside the person who hated him. It could only be said that the fallen Willow God had been resurrected by Shi Hao once again.
That makes sense, though. He is the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, the one who ruled over all ages and suppressed an entire era. Reviving the deceased Willow God—something utterly impossible for ordinary people—seems not so impossible for him!
Upon seeing this, the forty Supreme Beings who had been keeping an eye on the area and were currently instigating the Dark Turmoil were stunned—truly stunned.
After all, their thinking was still stuck in the idea that the Great Emperor was invincible and the only one who could rule the world. But now, the Great Emperor at his peak was facing Shi Hao like a chick and an eagle, each one easily defeated by a claw. This was simply unacceptable.
It's as if you traveled back to ancient times, struggled your whole life, experienced countless difficulties, and finally succeeded, becoming the emperor and establishing a new dynasty.
