"Who said this Desolate Emperor is Shi Yi?" Shen Lian spoke with a half-smile.
The six Quasi-Emperor powerhouses on Daluo Shenshan were all stunned.
"Your Majesty Emperor Lian, if the Desolate Emperor isn't Shi Yi, then who is he? Shi Hao?"
Shen Lian shook his head, not explaining further.
He didn't know the identity of the Desolate Emperor, but based on the video from the rankings of the heavens and worlds, this figure was undoubtedly a terrifying powerhouse.
Shi Yi, the one with Double Pupils, though extraordinarily talented, lacked the decisiveness and ruthless heart of the true Desolate Emperor.
A truly invincible existence must possess an unshakable heart. One who self-destructs his mental state and kills blood relatives over a Supreme Bone cannot be that person.
So Shi Yi could never be the Desolate Emperor.
Meanwhile, in the world of Shrouding the Heavensâ
"Don't even bother looking. This Double Pupils Shi Yi is definitely not the Desolate Emperor," Ye Hei said calmly, voice full of certainty.
"Why?" Ji Mingyue, Pang Bo, and the others were puzzled.
Ye Hei looked at them seriously. "Shi Yi was born with Double Pupils and his future was always destined to be bright, capable of creating a prosperous golden era. If he had a broader mind, he might have truly realized grand ambitions. But he's too narrow-mindedâlike the Extreme Emperor of the Life Forbidden Zone. His mindset will limit his heights."
After Ye Hei spoke, the white-robed God King Jiang Buxu added, "Yes. The Great Emperor Wushi was also born with peerless talent, radiating through time. But afraid of a smooth journey softening him, he deliberately cut off his own foundation and forged an invincible path in a sea of corpses."
"Just a single Supreme Bone⊠As the video said, Supremes aren't bornâthey rise through blood and battle."
Hearing Ye Hei and the God King, the powerhouses in the Shrouding the Heavens world were all moved.
"It seems the Desolate Emperor, who created the five secret realm methods and became a Red Dust Immortal against the odds, isn't the selfish bone-stealer with Double Pupilsâbut the tormented child whose Supreme Bone was taken."
The video continued.
Shi Yi's fame rose as he stepped on countless proud geniuses, dominating the Stone Kingdom.
But Shi Hao, with help from the old patriarch of Shi Village and a willow branch, stood up once more.
His strength soon surpassed his peers. He had been honed in the wilderness, baptized in Suanni's true blood, and had studied Suanni's treasured scripture.
Eventually, he broke through the blood-like state. With a wave of his arm, he unleashed strength beyond 108,000 jins.
Later, with the aid of the dead willow tree, he entered the False God Realm.
Inside, Shi Hao shattered every record, even surpassing Shi Yi's accomplishments.
With his own strength alone, in the same realm, he overpowered royal descendants, seizing treasures in bulk.
He left his name on the Tianjiao List with a note: "Loves drinking animal milk."
But due to attempting to dig out treasure bones within the realm, he was expelled, banned from entering again for two years.
The footage rolled on.
Shi Hao left Shi Village, rescued his stand-in Shi Qingfeng in the second ancestral land, then ventured into the Great Wilderness for more trials.
He grew stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With Shi Qingfeng, he escaped the perils of the wilderness.
Then, he entered the Imperial City of the Stone Kingdom. During the Butian Pavilion trial, he ranked first with overwhelming strength and joined with a concealed identity.
Seeing this, the powerhouses of the heavens and worlds gradually understood.
"That willow tree from Shi Village isn't simpleâŠ"
"This child survived! Wonderful!"
"It's clear nowâthe invincible Desolate Emperor isn't Shi Yi, but Shi Hao!"
"Hahaha! So satisfying to watch!"
"Rise from ruin, rebirth through adversityâthat's a true invincible existence! That's worthy of the title Desolate Emperor!"
"I knew it! The Desolate Emperor couldn't be someone as petty and selfish as Shi Yi!"
"Little cowhide! Keep charging forward! Crush those Double Pupils!"
The expressions of powerhouses across the heavens and worlds became vibrant.
They were all convinced that the Desolate Emperor, the one who "slaughtered so much that no one dared to name him" and "was born for the Dao and came to meet calamity," was Shi Hao.
They waited in anticipation for him to rise, to slap the Martial King Mansion, slap the Rain Clan, and finally, slap Shi Yi across the face.
MeanwhileâŠ
Inside the Nine Heavens Ten Great Worldsâ
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
In the Martial King Mansion, the elders of Shi Yi's lineage shot up in shock.
Their faces trembled as they watched the images from the heavenly rankings.
"Not only is Shi Hao alive, but he broke Shi Yi's records?"
"That wasn't the real Shi Hao in the second ancestral landâit was a stand-in?"
"Could Shi Hao be the Desolate Emperor?"
Their fists clenched, eyes growing cold and grim.
"Calm down. As of now, Shi Hao is far from being Yi'er's match. Yi'er possesses Double Pupils and Supreme Bones. His talent outshines all past and present. Shi Hao can't compare," said the fourth clan elder. His blood surged like an immortal phoenix, his divine brilliance dazzling.
"You all panic over nothing," he said coldly. "Yi'er is the future Desolate Emperorâhe's destined for eternal dominion."
"As for Shi HaoâŠ" He paused, then sneered. "Let him grow. The stronger his fame, the better stepping stone he'll be for Yi'er."
"I firmly believe our Yi'er is the chosen of this golden age. He's the one who will overturn the world!"
The other elders in Shi Yi's lineage slowly regained confidence, their expressions relaxing.
YesâYi'er was the invincible one.
In the Mysterious Domain, Bulao Mountainâ
"Hao'er! Our Hao'er isn't dead!"
Shi Ziling and his wife burst into tears, their voices choked with emotion as they saw the image of little Shi Hao in the heavenly rankings.
Trapped in Bulao Mountain for years, they had missed and worried for their son day and night.
Now they saw that not only had Shi Hao survived, he had risen again, left his name in the False God Realm, shattered records, crossed the Great Wilderness, and entered the Tianmen Pavilion.
The couple looked at each other, overwhelmed, covering their faces as joyful tears streamed down their cheeks.
