"Didn't you say let this emperor come across the border? Now this emperor is here, as you wish."
Shen Lian's indifferent voice resounded through the starry sky.
The Light and Dark Emperor and the Abandoned Emperor were stunned for a moment, a dazed look flashing in their eyes. But then, the two Great Dao Emperors seemed to realize something, and their expressions changed dramatically.
"You... You... You... Are you the Refining Emperor?!"
Emperor Guang An and Emperor Ai Tian suddenly raised their heads to look at Shen Lian. Their bodies trembled violently, and they cried out in horror.
He's here!
The Refining Emperor, who once declared "I will come personally and deprive you of everything," had truly descended across the heavens and myriad worlds!
At that moment, an indescribable shock rendered their minds completely blank.
To cross the heavens and myriad worlds...
What an inconceivable feat!
Ye Heishou, God King Jiang Buxu, King Pang, all members of the Ji and Jiang families, and everyone under the starry sky who witnessed this scene and heard those words, all felt their heads buzzing in disbelief.
In the next moment, everyone's hearts surged with ecstasy.
Countless lives across the universe might truly be saved!
Elsewhere, myriad experts scattered across the heavens and realms who were watching the live broadcast also saw this incredible scene.
"This Refining Emperor is indeed that senior of the human race from the past!"
The white-haired Wang Nixian was shocked, his expression lit with a glimmer of joy.
Indeed, only that senior across all existence possessed the ability to traverse realms so freely.
"Hahaha, is the extremist realm of Shrouding the Heavens dumbfounded now? Are they stunned?" A smug grin crept across Wang Nixian's face.
"How fortunate we are to witness Senior Zunrong again."
In the great realm of heaven and earth, the newly ascended Human Emperor Su rose from his throne and gave a solemn, respectful salute to Shen Lian.
Back during the war of the ten thousand clans, Shen Lian had subdued the heavens and all races alone, bringing peace to the human race across the Ten Thousand Clans World for thirty years.
Without Shen Lian then, the human race would likely have faced extinction. Even in the best-case scenario, three-quarters would have perished.
In the Big City, the Eternal Divine Emperor World, the Snow Realm, the Sword Realm, and countless others, many Immortal Emperors who had once witnessed Shen Lian's terrifying strength now smiled knowingly, their expressions filled with deep respect.
Even in the vast primary world...
"Grandpa... It's really you."
Shen Qingqing stood trembling from her seat. Gazing at Shen Lian's face—still youthful and radiant—her memories flooded back, and tears brimmed at the corners of her eyes.
Who says time always wins against beauty?
Once a graceful young woman in the spring of her youth, Shen Qingqing had grown old.
"Hurry, Xiaojie, gather all Shen family disciples to greet our ancestral forebear."
Her hand trembled as she patted Shen Shaojie.
Shen Shaojie looked at the image. Shen Lian appeared to be his age, and his jaw dropped slowly.
So... that's my great-grandfather?
Truth be told, he'd always imagined what his great-grandfather looked like. While it was common for cultivators to live for hundreds of thousands of years—or even eternally—he subconsciously assumed the Refining Emperor would be a silver-haired elder.
He never expected such youthful grace.
"Okay, Grandma. I'll go right away!"
Shen Shaojie shuddered and sprinted into the flat-roofed villa.
Meanwhile, in the Shrouding the Heavens big world...
Emperor Guang An and the Abandoned Emperor exchanged glances, their expressions darkening.
"Refining Emperor? We don't know how you crossed the heavens and myriad worlds, but we'll advise you—this is our realm's affair. It's best you stay out of it and don't invite trouble."
As their voices fell, both of them released their auras, which surged violently into the cosmos.
Along with it came an invincible conviction.
They were Emperors—unrivaled beings who once dominated their eras, sweeping aside countless prodigies to reign supreme.
Though they had sliced away their emperor realms to preserve their cultivation, reducing themselves to peak extremity emperors, the boundless spirit and will of their Great Emperor days remained unshaken.
So what if he was the Refining Emperor?
So what if he came across all heavens?
Let strength speak!
"Trouble? Do you even qualify to trouble this emperor?"
Shen Lian's voice remained calm as he gently raised his right hand.
Ye Heishou and God King Jiang Buxu, previously bound, were instantly pulled behind the ranks as if by shifting constellations.
"Then fight! We've endured fire and blood, ruled the world, received the reverence of all clans, fallen from glory as ancient emperors, sealed ourselves in the emperor realm... We fear no one in this world!"
The Light and Dark Emperor and the Abandoned Emperor nodded to each other, then launched their assault without hesitation!
The Light and Dark Emperor pushed his hands forward, releasing twin beams of black and white light that split the universe. They surged toward Shen Lian with devastating momentum.
These were the laws of light and darkness!
Combined with the authority of the Great Emperor realm, the dual laws were devastating—splitting the cosmos in two.
The beams smashed forward, shattering countless stars, annihilating galactic clusters, and reducing ancient regions to dust.
"Feast!"
With a flick of his sleeve, the Abandoned Emperor released four broken imperial weapons, which flew to the four corners of the universe. They radiated intense murderous energy and formed a matchless killing formation.
During his reign, he had used this formation to slaughter ancient emperors of foreign races.
Now, both moved with full force, trying to obliterate Shen Lian!
Their attacks collapsed the heavens, shattered the sun and moon, and drowned the void in shrieks of ruin.
"Refining Emperor, be careful!"
Ye Heishou and Jiang Buxu shouted in alarm.
They feared Shen Lian, who had traveled so far, might underestimate these extreme emperors and fall victim to a hidden ploy.
Yet, Xuan Ba's expression remained relaxed.
To him, these remnants of past emperors were nothing more than antiques. Even a Dao Venerable Holy Master from the outer world might surpass them. They dared threaten His Majesty Refining Emperor?
Faced with this ferocious assault, Shen Lian calmly lifted his palm.
"This is the power worthy of an emperor?"
Boom!
At first, a minuscule palm formed in the void.
But in an instant, it swelled against the storm, expanding endlessly!
In a blink, it had become all-encompassing!
All imperial laws, innate killing formations—everything melted before it!
Everyone stared, speechless.
The palm was simply colossal!
Immortal brilliance and divine radiance swirled around it. Within the palm, chaos churned across the universe. Galaxies looked like dust. Even the majestic Milky Way paled in comparison to a mere palm-line.
That hand was the heavens, the Great Dao incarnate.
It was boundless.
It was...
The Hand of God.
