That's right. Yiye Shrouding the Heavens, known across the realms as the Desolate Emperor, is merely an experience created by Shi Hao's Yuanshen during his recovery.
"Is this the Wild Emperor?"
In a mysterious Otherworld located in the depths of the Immortal Ascension Road, a majestic figure stood with his hands behind his back, silently observing the broadcast of the Heavens Ranking.
He is the emperor.
Since the Mythical Era, he established the Heaven Court and has been hailed as one of the most brilliant figures in history. Many compared him to the Huangdi and often placed them side by side. Though he never paid much attention to such comparisons, he couldn't help but feel complicated emotions.
"I'm not as good as him."
After a long silence, the emperor sighed softly. The life of the Huangdi was too dazzlingāunprecedented and unmatched.
The screen rapidly displayed Shi Hao's journey. He attempted to forge an immortal path through countless space nodes, leaving inscriptions in each. Eventually, Shi Hao succeeded in opening the Immortal Road and entered the Immortal Domain, causing Ye Hei and the others in the Shrouding the Heavens world to rejoice. Huangdi was, after all, a legendāone who stepped into the Immortal Domain and rewrote history.
Upon arriving in the Immortal Domain, Shi Hao witnessed the death of his grandfather's avatar. This trauma caused the fusion of his ten sealed souls from the Ten Samsaras, leading to a return of self and advancement to Immortal King, along with the restoration of his memories.
He initiated a great reckoning by purging several forbidden zones, suppressing King Jinmao of Yunxian Mountain, opening the sixth secret realm in the Boundary Sea, and ascending to Immortal King. Shi Hao then eradicated three top Immortal Kings under Ao Sheng in the Immortal Domain.
Needing to replace them, Shi Hao ventured alone into the Boundary Sea and eliminated two Immortal King-level enemies. He traveled to a foreign land, suppressed the giant Chi King, and killed another foreign Immortal King.
During the Luo Emperor era, Shi Hao refined a nine-color elixir and rescued the world's second strongest, the Daoist of Immortal Gold. He enhanced the vitality of many old senior monsters and forbidden zone masters who awaited resurrection. Later, he defeated Immortal King-level He Wushuang in the Boundary Sea and beat his master Kundi once again.
The Huangdi's invincible name resounded through all realms.
Later, Shi Hao fought ancient foreign artifacts, ventured into the sea depths to retrieve the Dark Willow God, entered the Immortal Domain's no-man's land to rescue Qin Hao, and slew many Immortal King-level enemies. Immortal Kings fell like rain.
Shi Hao became the cultivator with the highest number of Immortal King kills since the era of the Luo Emperor.
Crossing through the Immortal Domain's no-man's land, he fought the Nine-Headed Monster of the ancient temple and realized the urgency of becoming an emperor. Only an emperor could resist the darkness encroaching from beyond.
After this enlightenment, Shi Hao entered closed-door training for 100,000 years to pursue the path of emperorship. His Immortal body was destroyed and reborn multiple times.
Over the millennia, he advanced Dao cultivation to its pinnacle and refined his body to surpass Immortal King weapons. He tried brute-forcing his way into the emperor realm through supreme magic power, but failed. Though defiant of the heavens, he was gravely wounded and required decades of healing and half a divine elixir to recover.
Even with peerless talent, Shi Hao had to admit that brute force alone couldn't allow him to break into the emperor realm.
Thus began his quest for another path. In the Immortal Domain, he consulted countless powerhouses and top Immortal Kings, exchanging deep insights and supreme techniques like the True Dragon Treasure Art.
Time in the mountains passed without notice. Eventually, Shi Hao discovered a feasible method: use an Immortal Gold Formation to draw in all external enemies' power, channel it into the formation, and temper both body and spirit into a perfect unity. Like a silkworm becoming a butterfly, success required precisionāany failure would result in certain death. It was a path of nine deaths and one life.
Shi Hao then made a public declaration: he would break through the king's realm into emperorhood in front of the entire world. This bait drew all his enemies to strike him down during his advancement.
His plan worked. As he began his breakthrough, all the mighty opponents descended to stop him.
"Formation, open!"
At that moment, the Immortal Gold Formation activated, reshaping the elementsāearth, water, fire, and wind. Chaotic primordial energy surged, stars collapsed, and the battle became the most terrifying war in Immortal Domain history.
Supreme giants fell, Immortal Kings were decapitated, and their dazzling blood drenched the sky.
"A mere junior dares challenge us?" roared Immortal King Wushang, wielding a bronze halberd to cleave Shi Hao.
"Huang, do you still hope to live? Hand over your head!" Kundi's voice was grim. His silver hair stood on end, his pupils turned into crosses as he formed hand seals, and his immortal cauldron erupted in billions of divine rays.
"Huang, genius of your time? Young overlord? You dream of emperorhood? Go dream in the underworld!" snarled Demon King Pu, charging in murderously.
"Huang! You think you can become an emperor? Today is your sacrificial day!" sneered the Sword King, unleashing slash after slash.
All the Immortal King-level giants unleashed their might to kill Shi Hao.
Boom!
Light runes blazed from every direction, converging to annihilate him. Shi Hao's protectors, including the Dark Willow God and the Sky Horned Ant, let out roars that shook the heavens.
Amidst the blood-soaked chaos, Shi Hao ascendedābecoming an Immortal Emperor at last!
He counterattacked the abyss and unleashed heaven-defying power, utterly crushing the Sword King, the Nine-Headed Monster, Kundi, and others who surrounded him.
The battlefield fell silent.
No one in the world now dared to claim supremacy.
The Immortal Domain erupted in celebrationābillions of beings cheered.
Shi Hao stood supreme in the Immortal Domain and throughout all ages.
"No one in the world dares to be honored!" So this is what it meansāhe destroyed all who claimed supremacy.
"Hahaha! At last! Huang has become an emperor!"
"Desolate Emperor! The true Desolate Emperor!"
"Huangdi, invincible!"
"Huang really gambled this time. If he failed even halfway, everything would've been lostāhundreds of thousands of years of cultivation gone in a flash."
"Fortunately, he won the gamble!"
Powerhouses across the heavens and myriad realms were awestruck. His courage, his talent, and his pathāmerely watching it unfold evoked boundless admiration.
