Follow the path of Dao from infancy Chapter 1909 Chapter 512: The Embryonic Form of Emperor Dao (2)
Previously on Follow the path of Dao from infancy...
"Emperor Dao of Multiple Realms truly exists in our path of cultivation!"
"The reincarnation of a Quasi-Emperor has been beaten. It's no surprise he achieved such heights at the Seventh Level of the Immortal King Realm!"
"Such an incredible domain—could he possibly be practicing Emperor Dao while in the Immortal King Realm?!"
Everyone stood frozen in shock, their gazes fixed on Li Hao. The might he unleashed had utterly dispelled their uncertainties, soothing the turbulent emotions of numerous top twenty contenders.
"Incredibly powerful, good thing we didn't act impulsively and selected him in time."
An elder from the Dao Clan drew in a sharp breath before remarking.
Dao Qingyin's stunningly lovely and immaculate features grew grave as she declared, "There has to be something extraordinary happening; what a freakish talent! Without the Emperor's reincarnation dominating this True King selection, he might have vied for the top spot!"
"Even Di Mingyuan of the Emperor Clan falls short, it appears."
The remaining Immortal Kings of the Dao Clan let out sighs, pondering that youth with profound thought.
Within the Emperor Clan, Di Mingyuan wore a grim expression. As the present inheritor of the Emperor Clan's line, watching Li Hao's latest clash left him filled with doubt.
What's more, it was clear the youth hadn't unleashed his full potential yet!
"Today's Kings can't match him; amid disasters, even more fearsome Extreme Realm powerhouses emerge."
Across the major clans, whispers spread with faces showing intricate mixes of awe and wonder.
Spectators from the lesser clans in the clan realm felt both astonishment and joy; a mightier True King chosen meant better chances of guiding them through fights. War fires now rage across the True Realm, desperately requiring a push on the front lines.
"The challenges persist!"
The Immortal Immortal Emperor uttered in a frosty tone.
Li Hao and Wan Jijun were shifted from the combat platform, where an immense and mysterious force wrapped around them, soothing Li Hao's earlier surging power without any depletion, restoring his faintly scorched Divine Blood to fullness as though time itself had turned back.
Wan Jijun experienced the identical effect, yet his look carried a hint of irritation. He cast a profound glance at Li Hao but remained silent.
The rest traded glances before selecting their opponents.
Shi Miao battled and issued challenges, swiftly ascending to the tenth position.
"What rank are you aiming for?"
Upon the platform, Shen Jueling, heir to the Ancient God Clan, confronted Shi Miao.
Shi Miao eyed the leaderboard nearby, aware that the top spot belonged to the Emperor's reincarnated form.
She recognized the low chances against that reincarnated foe, yet beyond him...
"No less than second."
Shi Miao answered.
A chill entered Shen Jueling's gaze; though he knew her goal was ambitious, he hadn't anticipated her ignoring all but the Emperor's reincarnation. Still, seeing her easy triumphs, he perceived her alarming strength.
Prior to ascending the platform, he'd gotten bloodline transmissions from his family; this female was a Quasi-Emperor's rebirth from ten millennia past, a King in her prior life. Her present combat prowess outstripped Wan Jijun's.
"A Quasi-Emperor who endured the catastrophe of ten thousand years ago—reveal your authentic domain to me!"
Shen Jueling locked eyes directly with Shi Miao.
Surrendering immediately to save power and hide details would be smarter, but the honor of the Ancient God Clan and his own dignity forbade it.
"Even against you, it remains out of reach."
Shi Miao stated flatly, without scorn or rudeness, merely conveying truth.
With those words, she wasted no more time, as Time Dao Laws swirled about her.
Her domain expanded, though not its genuine form.
Even so, a King's presence radiated clearly, laced with fearsome Time Dao might and a wheel of rebirth.
Shen Jueling's face shifted, promptly igniting his Ancient God Clan lineage, unleashing waves of Extreme Realm and Ultimate Realm force, while his domain blossomed, revealing an archaic Divine Emperor Dharma image rising behind him, immense in his domain.
His domain took the shape of the Divine Sea Realm Domain, blending more than a hundred domains, none elite. However, that integration of over a hundred lent his domain the essence of a King's Domain.
"Heavens above, a King's Domain—and both combatants are Kings!"
"The Ancient God Clan sits at tenth, but wields a King's Domain; imagine the extravagance of the higher ranks!"
"King's Domains vary in potency, as seen with Wan Jijun before—who can tell which prevails?"
Countless eyes bulged wide; this confrontation offered a supreme chance for cultivation insights. Capturing even a fragment could vastly aid their progress, perhaps why the Emperors permitted the True Realm's myriad races to observe.
"My domain lacks completion; once I perfect the merging of countless domains, I could shatter a King's Domain in moments!"
Arrogance gleamed in Shen Jueling's eyes. As successor to a mighty clan, all followed unique routes, honed to extremes, convinced of matching any rival.
"If it's imperfect, keep refining your practice."
Shi Miao declared, her domain projecting the burden of temporal inversion, which swallowed it whole, making the Divine Sea Realm Domain's glow abruptly fade, like shadows had engulfed it, savagely ripping away every trace of Divine Light.
Furthermore, Shen Jueling's cultivation, at the pinnacle of Immortal King, began to waver and regress.
Horror filled Shen Jueling's eyes, unprepared for his foe's Time Dao to wield such dread, impacting him directly.
"Time Dao—I've also attained the Tenth Layer; whom do you think you're belittling?"
Shen Jueling growled lowly, with Time Dao Laws surging in the Divine Sea to counter the inverting pressure.
Shi Miao's face stayed impassive, merely a shimmering, speckled glow flickering on her brow, which made the Time Dao Law forces in the Divine Sea Realm Domain crumble at once, followed by a merciless surge that overwhelmed the multiple strata of Divine Light in an instant.
