The Human Emperor c1-2382

by Huangfu Qi (皇甫奇)

“Trayastrimsa Heaven!

  “Great Destruction Art!”

  “White Dragon Divine Art!”

  “Myriad Spirit Sea Art!”

  Furious roars rang out. Although the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief did not know why Wang Chong hated this short and chubby Hu so much, they acted without hesitation, abandoning their current opponents and joining Wang Chong in attacking An Yaluoshan.

  Destructive attacks rained down in a veritable storm, even the heavens and earth paling at this sight.

  The faces of An Yaluoshan, Cui Qianyou, and Tian Chengsi had become as white as paper.

  The Power of the World continued to flow ceaselessly into their bodies, at an even more frantic pace than before, but it was insignificant in comparison to the power of three Subtle realm experts.

  The heaven-sundering storm of attacks made any counterattack from the trio futile!

  It was an overwhelming power that could make anyone despair!

  Boom!

  The ‘World Consciousness’ seemed enraged, and the massive thunderclouds above seethed and churned, the lightning growing more intense. In just a few short moments, one dazzling lightning bolt after another cracked down, creating a sea of lightning.

  But none of this was capable of stopping the assault on An Yaluoshan.

  “Stop!”

  But just when An Yaluoshan was about to die to Wang Chong, the world trembled, and even the attacks of Wang Chong, the Demonic Emperor Old Man, and the Wushang Village Chief were affected. Before they could react, there was a golden flash of light, and with one strike, the combined assault of the trio was obliterated.

  This attack was so powerful that the golden light was still unspent after blasting apart the offensive, streaking like a golden comet into the ground.

  Rumble!

  The earth trembled, throwing countless pieces of debris into the air. The tremendous shockwave even managed to blow back Wang Chong, the Wushang Village Chief, and the Demonic Emperor Old Man.

  Unstoppable!

  Unparalleled!

  This was what Wang Chong felt from this golden light.

  The Tianfu Divine Lord had been an extremely formidable Subtle realm expert, but when compared to this energy, he might as well have been a firefly trying to vie with the moon.

  What frightened Wang Chong even more was that this person seemed even more formidable than True Lord Yellow Dragon, the one who had defeated the Origin Immortal Lord back in the northwest.

  “Who’s there?”

  Wang Chong slightly paled, his heart trembling from unprecedented shock and danger.

  “Genesis Supreme!”

  An Yaluoshan cried out in excitement.

  When that golden light descended, An Yaluoshan had almost immediately recognized Genesis Supreme’s aura.

  Genesis Supreme was far stronger than the Tianfu Divine Lord.

  An Yaluoshan’s greatest source of confidence on this trip to the capital, the reason he had not feared Wang Chong’s murderous intent, was not the numerous ritual tools in his possession, nor was it the secret tunnel running beneath the northeastern walls, nor was it because he was a fool. It was because he had Genesis Supreme.

  Genesis Supreme was simply too powerful. When this man had first appeared before him and called himself a god, An Yaluoshan had almost laughed.

  But when he saw Genesis Supreme’s mountain-flattening power with his own eyes, An Yaluoshan had finally believed that even if Genesis Supreme wasn’t a god, he was an existence on par with one.

  And the person An Yaluoshan had arranged to meet seven li from this place had been none other than Genesis Supreme.

  An Yaluoshan stood up, spread out his arms, and loudly said, “Hahaha, Genesis Supreme, I knew that you would come and save me!”He had managed to last until Genesis Supreme arrived. He was the true victor.An Yaluoshan finally and truly relaxed. With Genesis Supreme here, no one would be able to threaten him. It was now time to turn from hunted to hunter!An Yaluoshan’s eyes were domineering and proud as he pointed at the distant Wang Chong and savagely said, “Genesis Supreme, kill that Wang Chong! Kill him, and I can help you sweep over the Central Plains and unify the world!”Genesis Supreme floated in the air like a ghost, a white mask on his face and a terrifyingly immense pressure radiating from his body.While Wang Chong, the Wushang Village Chief, and the Demonic Emperor Old Man were supreme experts, they seemed insignificant compared to Genesis Supreme.“The Child of Destruction?”Genesis Supreme’s robes danced as his white mask slowly turned toward Wang Chong.In a flash, Wang Chong, the Wushang Village Chief, and the Demonic Emperor Old Man were on their guard, their expressions incredibly grim.Strong!Very strong!It had been a very long time since Wang Chong had encountered an expert of this level. He sensed that even if they put their lives on the line, they would still be no match for this Genesis Supreme.“You’re still nothing compared to Li Taiyi. As we’ve run into each other, I might as well get rid of you!” Genesis Supreme’s voice drifted out from the white mask, cold and emotionless.He slightly raised an arm, its fingers opening toward the trio.The three of them instantly tensed, and a sense of imminent death suddenly seized their hearts.Behind them were the high walls, covered in a formation, leaving them nowhere to run. And besides, Wang Chong understood that even if they tried to flee, they would not be faster than Genesis Supreme.“Careful!”This development was beyond his expectations, but the only option for the three of them was to fight to the death.“Hahaha, kill them! hurry and kill them!”An Yaluoshan broke out in laughter, looking at Wang Chong’s group as if they were already dead. After so many trials and tribulations, it was finally his turn to hold his head high.In the air, a golden light thousands of times more dazzling than the sun and bursting with destructive power shot out from Genesis Supreme’s hand.Just when it seemed like Wang Chong and the others would be instantly slain by Genesis Supreme’s attack…Buzz!An intense tremor came from the capital, and in the air, Genesis Supreme scowled and raised his head. Though nothing seemed to have happened, Genesis Supreme could see what others could not, could see that a ray of light had appeared over the capital.The ray of light swiftly transformed into a white net that encompassed the entire capital and rapidly expanded in the direction of Genesis Supreme.What shocked Genesis Supreme even more was that within the capital, in the Pavilion of Petal and Sepal, a majestic energy that should have been sealed had suddenly become restless, appearing on the verge of fully awakening at any moment.“!!!”Genesis Supreme’s hand that was aimed at Wang Chong’s group seemed to freeze in the air.Not good! He’s about to awaken!Genesis Supreme was alarmed, and he no longer had the time to deal with Wang Chong. With a wave of his sleeve, he swept up An Yaluoshan, Cui Qianyou, and Tian Chengsi before they had time to react, and shot away, leaving before the net had time to enclose him.The sight of Genesis Supreme fleeing so abruptly made Wang Chong sense something.“Don’t think about running!”Buzz!A moment later, light gathered behind him and Stellar Energy rumbled. The Trayastrimsa Heaven manifested, and as Wang Chong reached out with his hand, the Trayastrimsa Heaven transformed into the golden spear, pulsing with terrifying energy. With spear in hand, he took aim at Cui Qianyou.Genesis Supreme was in no mood to attack, so this was the best opportunity to deal with them.Suddenly, as his eyes scanned the air, Wang Chong spotted something, and the golden spear changed targets, leaving his hand and flying toward a distant shrub.Bang!As the spear flew through the air and into the shrub, a scream tore through the air. A geyser of blood shot more than ten feet into the air, and soon, a figure appeared from the shrub, striking the ground face-up.“Gao Shang!” An Yaluoshan cried out, his eyes almost bursting out of his eye sockets.Wang Chong’s Trayastrimsa Heaven had pierced through none other than An Yaluoshan’s number one
strategist, Gao Shang.“Finally dead?”Wang Chong’s eyes glinted with cold light. In the Pavilion of Petal and Sepal, during the feast of all countries, Wang Chong had kept note of two faces: An Yaluoshan and Gao Shang.Wang Chong had originally intended to target Cui Qianyou or Tian Chengsi. Even if Genesis Supreme prevented him from killing An Yaluoshan, Wang Chong at least needed to kill one of his Great Generals. But the moment he spotted Gao Shang, he changed his mind.No matter how powerful Cui Qianyou and Tian Chengsi were, in the end, they were simple warriors. The Great Tang had numerous generals, and there were many people capable of killing these two. But Gao Shang was different.Wang Chong was certain that An Yaluoshan alone could not think up this plan to steal Dragon Qi during the feast of all countries. There was a ninety percent chance that Gao Shang was involved.Compared to Cui Qianyou and Tian Chengsi, the farsighted strategist who served as the brains of An Yaluoshan’s operations was clearly the bigger threat.“It really is him!”After killing Gao Shang, Wang Chong reached behind his back again, and the Trayastrimsa Heaven coalesced into another golden spear.Gao Shang was dead, so only Yan Zhuang was left.These were the two strategists at An Yaluoshan’s side. If they were killed, then even if An Yaluoshan got back alive, his threat would be greatly reduced without their assistance.“Brat, don’t go too far!” Genesis Supreme’s callous voice came from overhead, loud and dignified. Golden light in the form of a comet hurtled toward Wang Chong.“Careful!”As the golden light descended, Wang Chong and his two seniors were ready, using their movement techniques to split off in three different directions.Fortunately, Genesis Supreme was not focused on this matter. With a wave of his sleeve, he swept up the distant Yan Zhuang and then vanished into the void.“You got lucky this time. Next time, there will be no one to protect you!” A faint voice came from the distance—the last trace of Genesis Supreme.As Genesis Supreme disappeared, cavalry began to converge from all sides. The Wushang Cavalry, the City Guard, and numerous other experts gathered around. It was only now that the reinforcements had managed to arrive.“Wang Chong, how are you doing?”“These bastards would dare to appear here!?”Zhangchou Jianqiong and King Song led the reinforcements.The two had not been able to relax after Wang Chong left, so they had hastily made their own exit. They had come somewhat late, but they still immediately recognized those men in black who had aided the traitors in the Rebellion of the Three Princes.“Come on! Don’t let them run!” King Song sternly said.But Wang Chong quickly called out, “Wait! Don’t chase a fleeing enemy! Let them go!”Wang Chong stopped the two of them.Both King Song and Zhangchou Jianqiong knew only a part of the truth. They had no idea of just how terrifying those people really were. Scaring away Genesis Supreme was already the best-case scenario. Recklessly chasing after him would be incredibly dangerous and unpredictable.“Come on; we’ll talk once we get back,” Wang Chong said.King Song and Zhangchou Jianqiong exchanged an uncertain glance, but they still chose to trust Wang Chong.Giving up on their target, the horses galloped back toward the capital.……One hundred li from the capital, thunder suddenly rumbled. In a flash of light, a bronze mirror the size of a palm appeared out of the void, radiating visible ripples of energy. The bronze mirror gave a sudden jolt and vanished, next appearing another one hundred li away.Whoosh!The bronze mirror shook as if someone was shaking out a large bag, and several figures emerged from it.The moment his feet hit the ground, An Yaluoshan began to struggle and yell at Genesis Supreme.“Release me! Release me at once! Why didn’t you kill him? Why didn’t you kill that brat?!”Gao Shang was dead!Gao Shang was actually dead!The thought of this made An Yaluoshan gnash his teeth. If Genesis Supreme had listened to him and killed Wang Chong earlier, this never would have happened.An Yaluoshan was overcome with wrath!“If you want to die, I’ll throw you back to the capital right now! We can just find another ‘Child of the World’. Do you really think you’re irreplaceable?”Genesis Supreme’s cold voice resounded through the world.Cui Qianyou and Tian Chengsi felt their hearts chill, their bodies shivering all over. And the frenzied An Yaluoshan also instantly became much more composed.“Hmph, you’ve finally calmed down?“In front of a god, watch your words, An Yaluoshan!” Genesis Supreme rebuked, his voice icy and emotionless.“My apologies. I was rash.”An Yaluoshan finally suppressed his rage, lowering his head and admitting his errors.Youzhou still did not have the strength to contend against the Great Tang. An Yaluoshan was keenly aware that he would find it hard to realize his aspirations without the help of these men in black.

  Genesis Supreme said nothing, subtly nodding as he looked at the subservient attitudes of An Yaluoshan, Tian Chengsi, and Cui Qianyou.

  “Do you think I didn’t want to kill him? If I had delayed a second more, none of us would be standing here! Did you forget that the Sage Emperor was still in the capital?”

  Genesis Supreme floated in the air, his hands behind his back as he spoke in a domineering tone.

  “What? Didn’t you say before that if I could put that pearl in his hands, he would be able to completely suppress that power inside him?”

  Genesis Supreme’s words were like a bucket of cold water for An Yaluoshan, finally clearing his mind.

  “If he were that easy to take care of, he wouldn’t be Li Taiyi, and he wouldn’t have been a headache to us for so long.

  “In addition, I reminded you before to meet us ten-some li outside the city. Did you treat it as wind passing by your ears? All of this happened, including the failure to kill Wang Chong, because you were incompetent!”

  Genesis Supreme coldly glared at An Yaluoshan’s group.

  An Yaluoshan and Wang Chong had gotten into a fight far too close to the capital, only ten-some paces from the outermost walls. This was still within the range of that massive formation covering the capital.

  Most importantly, this could very easily draw Li Taiyi’s attention. This was why Genesis Supreme had initially sent over only the Tianfu Divine Lord’s men.

  But unexpectedly, despite the Tianfu Divine Lord’s many men, they had been unable to defeat Wang Chong, forcing Genesis Supreme’s hand.

  The thought of the energy Li Taiyi had unleashed at that final moment made even someone as strong as Genesis Supreme tremble in fear. Even if that man was suppressed by the Black Emperor Pearl, he could still unleash a frightening amount of power!

  It was no wonder ‘Heaven’ had feared him for so long and needed to deal with him through such a circuitous method.

  An Yaluoshan was speechless.

  In this escape plan, everything had gone basically as they had predicted, but at that final moment, there had been a problem. Wang Chong had tampered with the Nine Revolutions Jade Marrow Pill, allowing him to intercept him outside the city wall. This was something he had not expected.

  But at this moment, arguing was pointless.

  “An Yaluoshan, I can understand that you want to deal with that Wang Chong, but it seems you will have to wait until next time! In addition…”

  Genesis Supreme paused, his tone becoming much gentler.

  “You did your mission well. The Black Emperor Pearl has been delivered, and it won’t be long until that man is truly dead. Once the dragon of the Central Plains changes, you can truly unite the world. At that time, will you still fear some so-called King of Foreign Lands?

  “Stop worrying about these things. Once we return to Youzhou, we can begin your plan! I have already finished the second batch of Yeluohe for you, and they will be at Youzhou soon. With these soldiers, will there be any mortal army that can oppose you?

  “As the Child of the World, you must vie for dominance of all under the heavens, must unite the entire world. Do not keep your focus always on that one person!” Genesis Supreme said.

  The news that the second batch of Yeluohe was coming calmed An Yaluoshan down even more, and his eyes flashed.

  �
��Alright; it’s time for me to leave. You should also begin your journey back to Youzhou!”

  Genesis Supreme prepared to leave.

  “Wait!” A voice came from behind An Yaluoshan. Yan Zhuang, who had remained silent all this time, finally decided to speak.

  “Mm? It’s you!”

  Genesis Supreme stopped and turned around, displeasure in his voice.

  As an aloof and mighty god, he would allow someone like the Child of the World, chosen by the heavens, to occasionally throw a fit in front of him, but An Yaluoshan’s subordinates were mere ants. For them to speak in this tone to him was rather impudent.

  “Venerable Genesis Supreme, this one has no ill intentions and meant no disrespect. But you have also seen that if Venerable Genesis Supreme did not arrive in time, our lord would have died to that Child of Destruction. Is the future master of the Central Plains not a little too weak? And if there is some mishap, it might affect the plans of Venerable Genesis Supreme and the other gods. I presume that this is not what the venerable ones above wish to see.

  “Thus, I was wondering whether Venerable Genesis Supreme might have a method of increasing our lord’s strength. While this request might be difficult for others, I am sure that Venerable Genesis Supreme has the ability to fulfill it!”

  Yan Zhuang showed surprising boldness, stepping forward to speak.

  “What you say is not completely without reason.”

  Genesis Supreme pensively frowned.

  “Your current level of strength really is rather lacking. Fine; I was planning to give this to you after observing you a little longer, but… I might as well give these things ‘Heaven’ created to you now.”

  After some thought, Genesis Supreme flipped his hand over. Light gushed out, and a second later, two black objects appeared in his hand, which appeared on close inspection to be a fist-sized suit of armor and a set of gauntlets.

  Genesis Supreme threw out the armor and gauntlets, upon which they began to rapidly expand.
