Indeed, when the dead were without memories, that made them wraiths. But once they were fully resurrected and their memories returned... that... made them...
My enemy.
Reincarnation realized that when hordes of spirits snarled in their charge. However, a portion did head for Li Hao.
The young man threw his head back with laughter!
I resurrected them!
Aren’t they supposed to be undying?
Then I’ll fully resurrect them and return their memories. I’ll still have my own to deal with, but most of them won’t come gunning for me!
Kaboom!!
Explosions sounded as countless wraiths exploded. The heart pounded furiously. Reincarnation had been maintaining operations before, but was now swarmed by dead spirits. They climbed their way up to him, came back to life after they were killed, and charged him again...
They gnawed at Reincarnation, dying again and again, coming back again and again. The man’s energy started to deplete at a massive rate and color drained from his face.
He looked at the equally surrounded and battered Li Hao. The young man smiled radiantly back at him. Reincarnation was fighting himself at the moment. He was using his own strength to revive the dead spirits so that they could attack him more!
If this continued and he didn’t stop the mechanism, then he would consume his resources at a rate twice that of Li Hao. It wouldn’t be the young man who died first then.
“Desire... is a puny dao... how can it break my reincarnation cycle?!” Reincarnation couldn’t believe what was taking place in front of him. He permitted the dead spirits to tear at him as he glared at Li Hao with bitterness.
I have formed dao rules already! Why was desire able to dismantle them?!
“There is no stronger or weaker daos when it comes to the great dao,” Li Hao chuckled. “Desire is the core of human nature and thus a powerful dao. Red Moon was a piece of trash. What does he really know of desire?”
The young man grinned at Reincarnation. “Perhaps I’ll thank you in the future, because you let me know that intense desire might be the source of me being able to bring back those I reach for. I can resurrect them this way! You’ve bestowed some experience upon me today, Reincarnation!”
Boom!
The heart finally exploded from the strain placed on it. Reincarnation didn’t do anything to prevent its demise as he would continuously endure the backlash of this strength if it didn’t. He would eventually die to the endless horde.
RUMBLE!!
The entire world began falling apart following the demise of the heart. Countless spirits were obliterated, including those near and dear to Li Hao. The young man didn’t look at them since none of it was real.
KABOOM!
All of this took place in a single second in the eyes of those waiting in the chaos. The dao of desire howled, a suddenly pale Reincarnation vomited blood, and death qi wafted out from him. Li Hao stepped out of the void while Reincarnation’s presence faded.
Peng Cheng and the others looked around with alarm!
How was this taking place?? Had the peak eighth rank Reincarnation been defeated in a split second?!
Reincarnation was definitely worse for the wear. His dao rules, his dao spirit, and his reincarnation cycle had all been shattered. The man was dejected and laughed at himself.
The breaking of a cultivator’s dao was the greatest blow of all. Reincarnation was a proud man and thought of himself as unparalleled. Although he didn’t measure up to the overlords, there was the greatest potential in his dao!
But today, it had all been shattered!
“Desire...” He laughed as he looked at Li Hao. “Not the desire of that trash Red Moon, he’s not worthy. Li Hao... this might not be just desire... but unlimited insanity! Isn’t it?”
It was astonishing that the young man wished to revive those mundanes that badly! What was there to be nostalgic for when it came to mundanes?
“Do you... want to walk my path of time?” Li Hao asked calmly.
“Cough cough... No,” smiled Reincarnation. “Why don’t you let me see what the real time is? Can you deploy all of time’s strength?”
“As you wish!” Li Hao waved the myriad of worlds into being. A star gathered together—the star of time.
“This is not my time, but of the New Martial War Sovereign’s. No, it is the time of the Yin and Yang War Sovereign!” murmured the young man. Sword intent flashed from the sword of light and shot for Reincarnation!
Peng Cheng and the others jerked with dismay. Reincarnation was already heavily injured, he might die from this blow. The chaos beast wanted to interfere, but the world master looked back and snorted, “Piss off!”
That gave the others pause.
Reincarnation’s millstone of life and death once more appeared. It was in very poor condition, but the man held his head high. “I was born in the east and will die in the east. I admit that I have been vanquished in this fight!”
He’d failed in the contest of daos!
He had to admit his defeat with the shattering of his dao. He readily accepted his defeat. There was nothing to deny about this outcome. He was just greatly saddened!
But before I go, I’m going to take a look at the so-called strongest dao in the chaos. The dao of time!
The man sunk into time, memories flickered. The past and present manifested as he stood over the river. Reincarnation saw further when the sword descended on his head!
“Li Hao... life and death... are still very strong... in the future!” Reincarnation laughed as he looked toward the end of the river. “Desire... is weaker!”
BOOM!
An explosion rang through the chaos, as did Reincarnation’s voice.
“Desire is weaker than life and death!”
I see it!
I see it, Li Hao, do you know? I win in the future, not the dao of desire!
Reincarnation’s dao collapsed with a roar. The disturbance was greater than imagined as a powerhouse of nearly six thousand daos, one who’d grasped some dao rules, fully died under a sword blow.
He left only these words echoing through the chaos.
Desire does not measure up to life and death!
It is only I who could not overcome you, Li Hao.
......
Reincarnation drew his last breath!
Life and death did not measure up to desire. Reincarnation did not flee after his cycle of life and death was broken. Instead, he chose to meet battle head-on to the end and be struck down by Li Hao’s sword when he came face-to-face with time.
The foremost powerhouse of the east thus perished.
“My king!”
“Dao master!”
“......” Grief-stricken wails filled the world. Shocked seventh ranks reeled at what they felt. How was this possible?!
Their world master had died in single combat, he’d died to Li Hao! The Silver Moon king who hadn’t emerged in the chaos for long really had killed the Reincarnation master!
Peng Cheng and the other exalted emperors were too shocked for words. They were in danger! Everything was over! Reincarnation had been killed so quickly!
Peng Cheng spat out a world in preparation to flee. He didn’t dare linger any further. Seeing that the chaos beast was about to make a run for it, the weakened Li Hao to the rear frowned.
“Take the people of Reincarnation with you! You promised Reincarnation that you would do so. Are you going back on your word now?”
The fleeing Peng Cheng paused with great surprise at these words. Um... you already killed Reincarnation. What do you mean by that?
“How can a right and proper eighth rank be so cowardly?” Li Hao asked extremely calmly. “I wouldn’t do anything to you even if I was in peak condition, much less how exhausted I am now. A promise is a promise!”
Peng Cheng was terrified out of his mind, but gave way all the same. It wasn’t just out of consideration for Li Hao’s words, but that... there were a lot of powerhouses left in Reincarnation major world. There were plenty of seventh ranks and a large sum of mid and low ranks.
The Reincarnation master was dead. Chaos Sky hadn’t lost anything from this venture. All of the Chaos Sky exalted emperors were still alive. It’d been eastern region exalted emperors that’d fallen in droves.
Granted, Chaos Sky’s plans in the east were completely finished!
Sun Moon, Earth Fissure, Gemini, Reincarnation...
All of their arrangements at these worlds had gone up in smoke. When looked at it this way, they’d suffered quite the loss!
It would be an act of merit if Peng Cheng brought back the remaining Reincarnation exalted emperors with him. That would ensure that this venture wasn’t a complete wash. And so, the chaos beast stopped in the middle of his mad flight.
The remaining two eight ranks didn’t dare make a sound.
Peng Cheng looked gingerly at Li Hao. The young man was very weak at the moment. He must have paid a high price to kill Reincarnation, but it still didn’t occur to the chaos beast to take advantage of this temporary opening.
He didn’t have the courage to. All of it had fled from him!
Earth Spirit, Hornet, Reincarnation...
Each of these exalted emperors had been formidable personages! And yet, all of them had fallen in Li Hao’s hands.
Someone like Long Zhan had been forced back to the four regions through Li Hao’s schemes. How would Peng Cheng dare ambush the young man at this time? In his eyes, it would require an overlord to take down the young man!
Either the three overlords or Long Zhan had to personally take the field. Otherwise, no one else in the entire chaos would be able to suppress Li Hao.
“My thanks... my thanks for the Silver Moon king’s generosity...” Peng Cheng uneasily thanked his greatest enemy. He looked at the Reincarnation exalted emperors and grunted, “Withdraw with the entire population. Leave the dao universe.”
A seventh rank gnashed his teeth, furious and unwilling to leave. “Kill him! Our lord...” He felt that there was still a chance. Reincarnation might be dead, but surely Li Hao was also gravely injured after the encounter.
A violent light dawned in Peng Cheng’s eyes. You’re crazy, aren’t you? You want to provoke him even at a time like this?
The chaos beast flashed to the other and rammed him to pieces with a loud roar. The immense physical capabilities of a chaos beast were on full display.
“The Reincarnation master asked this seat to take you with me before he died. Who else would care about your survival otherwise? Hurry and disengage from the dao universe so you can leave with me!”
A seventh rank was absolutely nothing to him.
