“Strike now, kill him first!” Emperor Yu spoke urgently.
Behind him, a pair of tattered wings, still dripping with blood, regenerated. As they flapped, the Boundary Sea shattered, and radiant light rained down from his body. He was determined to eliminate Huang.
“Kill!”
Emperor Hong responded with action, wielding a Quasi-Immortal Emperor artifact as he charged forward.
As for Emperor Cang, he too joined the assault, chanting deadly incantations to unleash a curse of annihilation.
The Elder of Annihilation turned his gaze back, peering into the river of time with a grave expression. He did not oppose the three emperors’ attack, for he too was wary of the beings lurking within the flow of time.
What could possibly frighten them? Almost nothing!
Because they were the mightiest beings in existence.
Unless it involved time itself—if creatures emerged from the river of ages, they might be extraordinary, unpredictable variables.
Once Quasi-Immortal Emperors were involved, even they could not deduce the consequences.
A fierce battle erupted as Shi Hao clashed with the three Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
Emperor Yu, Emperor Hong, and Emperor Cang had all consumed Emperor Pills, their bodies now wreathed in dark radiance, their power surging as they rapidly returned to their peak.
Thus, they no longer feared, unleashing their ultimate techniques to annihilate their formidable foe.
But Shi Hao had undergone a transformation—his mana had thickened, his cultivation had soared, and the pain of losing his son and brothers had sharpened his killing intent to terrifying levels.
**Boom!**
The battlefield was devastated, the waters of the Boundary Sea unable to replenish the destruction in time.
Four Quasi-Immortal Emperors clashed, blood splattering in all directions. This was the most intense battle since ancient times, with every strike capable of birthing a new realm within the sea.
Such was their power—shattering chaos to forge new worlds.
Only Quasi-Immortal Emperors could achieve this, where the birth and death of realms lay within their grasp.
The river of time trembled violently, shrouded in mist as three streaks of light surged upstream from the future.
The Elder of Annihilation’s expression finally changed. He sensed them—three Quasi-Immortal Emperors, charging toward them simultaneously. This was terrifying.
After all, how many Quasi-Immortal Emperors had existed since antiquity? All the living ones were gathered here!
Including himself, there were only five.
Yet now, three more had arrived from the future, united in purpose. Such combined strength could overturn everything.
Clearly, traversing the river of time was no easy feat—it risked triggering immense karmic backlash and unforeseen calamities.
Ordinary powerhouses would never dare attempt it.
Even Quasi-Immortal Emperors avoided meddling with causality. Though they could wander the river of time, they refrained from interference, fearing the consequences.
The stronger one was, the greater the karmic burden!
Otherwise, without restraint, they could reshape history at will, plunging the world into chaos. That would render existence meaningless!
Closer now—three mighty figures approached, wreathed in divine radiance, their Dao symbols dazzling and soul-shaking.
Even the Elder of Annihilation tensed. These were indeed powerful Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and their murderous intent boded ill.
Three more adversaries—if they allied with Huang, it would be four against four.
Even the arrogant Emperor Yu flapped his wings violently, unleashing overwhelming killing intent, desperate to crush Huang before any complications arose.
He saw the newcomers and feared the unexpected.
With four Quasi-Immortal Emperors, they could seal Huang away and slowly grind him to dust—a guaranteed victory.
Above all, they dreaded variables.
These three beings from the future had instantly complicated the situation.
Two men and a woman, all in human form, exuded an unparalleled aura that suffocated all who sensed it.
Brilliant Dao runes swirled around them, their profound techniques marking them as invincible.
The three strode forward, surveying the battlefield with disdain, their gazes piercing through the Boundary Sea to scrutinize every powerhouse present.
Radiant light trailed them as they advanced, parting the sea and shaking the heavens. Their combined might was overwhelming.
Then, their eyes locked onto Shi Hao—and they smiled.
“It’s him. We’ve truly found him!”
One murmured softly.
Seeing their smiles, Emperor Yu, Emperor Hong, and Emperor Cang paled. This was disastrous—if they smiled at Huang, they were likely allies, not enemies.
Even the Elder of Annihilation felt a chill—this did not bode well.
“Fellow Daoists, though we hail from different eras, fate has brought us together. But tampering with the river of time risks toppling the heavens themselves.”
The Elder of Annihilation warned, deeply concerned. If these three attacked, the consequences were unpredictable.
At this moment, Emperor Yu’s expression turned icy. He suspected Huang was fated to die today, prompting future powerhouses to intervene and alter destiny.
Perhaps this battle held too great a significance.
It might trigger a chain of events in the future, compelling some to brave the ancient past, enduring catastrophic karmic backlash to rewrite history.
“Indeed, Huang perishes today. These people have come for him.” The Elder of Annihilation muttered in agreement.
Emperor Cang and Emperor Hong nodded silently. With four Quasi-Immortal Emperors besieging Huang, the outcome was clear.
If outsiders intervened now, they were likely enemies. Allies would have no need to alter this battle.
“Strike!”
The woman among the three suddenly commanded, her snow-white palm striking toward the battlefield.
The force of her blow was terrifying, unleashing a storm of Dao runes that shook past, present, and future.
“Fellow Daoists, do you comprehend the consequences of your actions? Can you bear them?” The Elder of Annihilation roared.
He was truly alarmed. Altering the outcome of a battle across time would invite heaven’s wrath—perhaps even upon them.
Most crucially, if they saved Huang, what kind of terrifying, unknown future would unfold?
It was unthinkable!
Emperor Yu and his ilk had never dared such recklessness. To attempt it meant certain death, even for Quasi-Immortal Emperors.
**Boom!**
The heavens shattered, the Boundary Sea boiling with fury.
The woman’s palm strike grazed Shi Hao’s shoulder before plunging into the abyss, corroding all existence and unraveling the Dao laws of the universe.
Shi Hao dodged, glaring coldly at her.
Emperor Yu, Emperor Cang, and Emperor Hong were stunned—she had attacked Huang?
“You misunderstand.” One of the three spoke.
A man clad in immortal metal armor, wielding a halberd, his silver hair flowing, his gaze sharp as blades.
The Elder of Annihilation paused, then frowned in confusion.
Emperor Cang, Emperor Hong, and Emperor Yu were equally baffled.
“We came for Huang—but not to save him. To kill him!” The woman declared.
As the radiant Dao symbols faded, her true form emerged—a striking woman in her thirties, clad in a golden gown resembling armor, regal yet fearsome.
Her grace was unmatched, befitting a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, her beauty only enhancing her transcendent aura.
The third was an elder with crimson hair, robust and wielding a white Ruler of Heaven, exuding an invincible presence as if he could measure all realms and crush all foes.
“How can we trust you?” Emperor Yu demanded.
“Simple. Join us in slaying him!” The silver-haired halberd wielder declared, his weapon gleaming as he advanced.
**Boom!**
The three attacked—directly targeting Shi Hao!
“Arrogant fools! Who do you think you are, daring to challenge me?” Shi Hao roared defiantly.
Even besieged, he feared nothing.
These were future beings who knew his history, yet he remained unshaken, confident in his invincibility.
He had recently completed his metamorphosis, his vitality surging as he neared another breakthrough.
“Fellow Daoists, strike now! He cannot be left alive!” The golden-clad woman urged, more frantic than even Emperor Yu.
“Why would you do this? Do you not fear death?” Emperor Yu questioned suspiciously.
“Because his influence is too great!” The elder with the Ruler of Heaven replied.
“He once—”
Before he could finish, thunderbolts rained from the sky, striking him violently—though they did no harm.
Yet an unseen force, the backlash of karma, silenced him.
The secrets he sought to reveal carried too great a consequence.
**Cough!**
The elder spat blood.
“Hurry! We have little time. We came prepared to die, but the situation worsens!” The silver-haired man bellowed.
He urged the Elder of Annihilation and the three emperors to join them in annihilating Shi Hao.
For they were from the future—every action bore immense karmic weight. Already, they tasted the backlash.
And they had yet to land a single blow on Shi Hao.
If they altered even the slightest detail, the price would be paid in blood.
“What are you waiting for? Act now!” The woman shrieked.
“By changing this battle, you risk overturning eternity. What becomes of you—and of us?” The Elder of Annihilation asked gravely.
“No time for doubts! We know only this—if he lives, the consequences are dire. He—” The silver-haired man roared, his halberd blazing brighter.
The Elder of Annihilation’s face darkened. He struck.
Emperor Cang, Emperor Hong, and Emperor Yu, after a moment of shock, followed suit.
“Kill!”
Seven Quasi-Immortal Emperors now surrounded Shi Hao, seeking to seal him away and erase him from existence.
Never in history had such a thing occurred.
For never had so many Quasi-Immortal Emperors existed at once.
Seven against one—this was unprecedented. What kind of being warranted such a united front?
Yet here it was.
Shi Hao stood at the brink of annihilation.
A calamity beyond imagination unfolded, surpassing all expectations.
This was the darkest day of Shi Hao’s life—besieged by seven Quasi-Immortal Emperors. Who could endure such torment?
The scale of this catastrophe was horrifying, drawing in even future powerhouses. This was the most shocking event across all ages!
Shi Hao struggled desperately, facing the most brutal encirclement in history.
His sole advantage? The three future beings were restrained—by the backlash of karma.
“Enough of this oppression!”
A furious roar echoed from downstream in the river of time, accompanied by overwhelming killing intent.
**Dang!**
A great bell tolled as a figure, shielded by its resonance, charged forth.
And he was not alone—others followed.
