  After pushing back the Sky Official, Wang Chong decided to give up on his prey and lunge into the men in black.

  Boomboomboom!

  Tremendous explosions rang out as Wang Chong slaughtered the men in black like a wolf amongst sheep.

  These men in black who seemed like gods to mortal martial artists were like clay chickens in front of Wang Chong’s divine embryo. A single palm unleashed furious torrents of energy that obliterated the Lu Wus and Black Flame Asuras.

  Howling in rage, the Sky Official pursued, but Wang Chong used his Shadow Fiend Art to constantly change positions, running rampant amongst the men in black.

  Screams ripped through the air as Wang Chong’s demonic palm dealt out devastating losses…

  Firmament Supreme stood back and did nothing, his silver hair and that world of snow around him making him seem all the more cold, aloof, and emotionless.

  The sight of Wang Chong slaughtering all the men in black, even catching the tribal warriors in the shockwaves, with no one able to stand against them, left Firmament Supreme completely calm and unmoved.

  The hierarchy of the Celestial God Organization was extremely strict.

  Whether it was the numerous tribal warriors of the north or the formidable men in black, they were nothing but ants to the true upper echelons like Firmament Supreme and Genesis Supreme.

  As long as they willed it, they could gather many of these so-called ‘braves’ of the mortal world.

  As for the men in black, only a little time would be needed to train some more of them.

  Even experts like the Sky Official were not considered true core members!

  For Wang Chong to hunt them down was meaningless!

  Chapter 2077: Wang Chong’s Killing Move!

  “Stop dragging things out!”

  His silver hair dancing in the snowstorm, Firmament Supreme finally spoke, his eyes flashing with cold and dazzling light.

  “Since you won’t move, let me!”

  His cold and indifferent voice resounded through the world.

  In the distance, the rampaging Wang Chong trembled, his feet pausing for a moment as he glanced in Firmament Supreme’s direction.

  Firmament Supreme was as motionless as a statue, his body having long ago fused with the teleportation gate.

  But at this moment, his right hand reached out, snatching at the ground beneath him.

  Bang!

  Powerful spacetime ripples immediately began to radiate from his right hand.

  “You thought you could deceive me?”

  Firmament Supreme’s face was cold as his fingers clenched together and pulled. An immense power immediately engulfed a certain area of the earth beneath him.

  “Get out here!”

  “Not good!”

  Deep in the earth, where the azure crystal core was located, a cry of alarm rang out. Divine Embryo 3, which had been quietly absorbing energy and setting up a formation, was suddenly rendered motionless by spacetime energy.

  “A bunch of reckless fools, daring to try to divert my attention and play around with me! Did you really think this god didn’t know what you were up to down there?”

  Bang!

  Before anyone could react, Firmament Supreme fiercely pulled. A giant spacetime hole appeared in the ground in front of him, and Divine Embryo 3 emerged, wrapped in a cocoon of azure light.

  “!!!”

  “!!!”

  Wang Chong trembled in shock, his breathing almost stopping.

  He knew that Firmament Supreme was powerful, but not this terrifyingly powerful. Separated by a vast distance, he was still able to pull Divine Embryo 3 out from the ground, stopping it from laying down its destructive formation.

  Divine Embryo 3’s feet were still down below, but its head was on the surface.

  This was one of the mysterious abilities of spacetime power!

  “Not good!”

  Wang Chong’s face paled. Immediately giving up on the men in black, he pushed the Shadow Fiend Art to the limit, streaking toward the teleportation gate as a faint black line.

  Firmament Supreme was simply too powerful!

  Wang Chong had dared to run rampant amongst the man in black precisely because he had noticed that Firmament Supreme was at a crucial moment in the construction of the teleportation gate and could not leave. Moreover, at this distance, Firmament Supreme’s power over spacetime was greatly weakened. As long as Wang Chong couldn’t be pinned down, nothing could be done to him.

  But Firmament Supreme had already noticed the existence of Divine Embryo 3, and now that it had been pulled up to the front of the teleportation gate, it could be easily killed by someone of Firmament Supreme’s strength.

  “Hmph, not knowing your own strength!”

  Firmament Supreme coldly snorted in disdain. He would first kill off this thief attempting to steal his energy core, and then he would kill off the rest, one by one, like a cat playing with mice.

  “Die!”

  Firmament Supreme’s expression was ice-cold, his body thrumming with spacetime power. His slender fingers opened and reached out for Divine Embryo 3’s head.

  The palm was suffused with so much power that it could probably instantly shatter Divine Embryo 3’s head.

  Buzz!

  Just when Firmament Supreme’s fingers were about to close, Firmament Supreme raised an eyebrow, his heartbeat quickening as an extreme feeling of unease welled up in his mind.

  “It’s not right!

  “Who goes there?!” Firmament Supreme barked, turning his head toward the spacetime tunnel through which he had pulled out Divine Embryo 3.

  At first glance, there was nothing in the pitch-black tunnel, and it seemed as if he had been seeing things.

  But a moment later, a voice that had lain in wait for a long time suddenly exploded out.

  “An excellent chance!

  “Now is the moment!”

  As that bizarre voice rang out, a formidable energy exploded out of nowhere, instantly causing a change in Firmament Supreme’s spacetime tunnel.

  Bang!

  A dazzling blue light exploded out of the spacetime tunnel which had been on the verge of closing.

  It started off like the glow of a firefly, but it rapidly expanded to more than one hundred times its size, a massive rock bursting with energy that forced open the spacetime passage before Firmament Supreme could close it.

  Upon seeing this familiar blue light and sensing the frenzied energy within it, Firmament Supreme’s pupils constricted, his face paling.

  The energy core!

  The source of energy he had placed ten-some li beneath the ground to provide power for the teleportation gate!

  “How could this be!?”

  Firmament Supreme gnashed his teeth, his eyes bulging in disbelief.

  He had already seized that scoundrel underground, and the energy core was reinforced by the formation. How could it have suddenly entered his spacetime tunnel?

  Unless…

  Firmament Supreme had a sudden thought, his body trembling in understanding.

  As if in response to Firmament Supreme’s thoughts, a furious roar brimming with peerless strength came from under the earth.

  “Open up!!”

  The voice of Divine Embryo 1 thundered over the shores of the Caspian Sea.

  With a furious roar, Divine Embryo 1 grabbed the massive energy core with one hand while the other hand grabbed Divine Embryo 3’s ankle. At the moment Firmament Supreme was distracted by Divine Embryo 3, Wang Chong stopped hiding, unleashing his peak Subtle realm energy and his powerful Earth Element abilities.

  Rumble!

  Earthquake!

  Through the immense power of Divine Embryo 1, Wang Chong shattered the formations stabilizing the energy core. Veins bulged on his arms as he pushed the energy core through the spacetime tunnel, and with a deafening roar, the core shot toward the teleportation gate.

&nbs
p; Spacetime energy was not something ordinary martial artists could trifle with!

  And trying to play a trick in front of a Grotto Heaven expert like Firmament Supreme was incredibly difficult. However, in the Sage Emperor’s notebook, Wang Chong had seen many secrets regarding the Grotto Heaven realm.

  Grotto Heaven experts could open and close spacetime tunnels with a single thought, but if one charged into a spacetime tunnel at the last second, one could forcefully extend the time the tunnel was open for a few moments.

  It was an extremely dangerous course of actions, and if one lacked sufficient strength, it would be the same as charging into a meat grinder.

  The final result would be a body crushed to pieces!

  But Wang Chong was far stronger than ordinary experts. Most importantly, Wang Chong had forced the massive energy core into the spacetime tunnel.

  The closing spacetime tunnel had been forced open by the frenzied energy from the core. This also pushed back the grinding energy of the spacetime tunnel, giving Wang Chong a few moments.

  For the divine embryo, this was more than enough time.

  “Ha!”

  Holding the massive energy core with one hand, Divine Embryo 1 crossed over Firmament Supreme’s head.

  “Go!”

  Firmament Supreme had placed many more seals around the teleportation gate. Wang Chong pushed all his energy into the energy core to break these seals so that it could get closer and closer to the teleportation gate.

  Divine Embryo 1 also suffered from the frenzied energy leaking out of the core.

  Freezing energy rampaged within Divine Embryo 1’s body, and it seemed like it would fall apart at any moment. Its Stellar Energy was also freezing into chunks of ice that dropped from the sky.

  Even with Divine Embryo 3’s assistance, that chill was far too terrifying. But Wang Chong could no longer worry about this.

  He could sense that the energy inside the massive energy core was extremely unstable, like a volcano on the verge of eruption.

  After all, the men in black only needed massive amounts of energy to build the teleportation gate. There was no need for this energy to be stable. Thus, from the very beginning, the energy core had been extremely unstable.

  Divine Embryo 3 had been hiding around the energy core this entire time, using its Ice Element skill to lay down formations and brands within the core to destroy the balance in the core and increase the instability.

  But there was one thing on the shores of the Caspian Sea that was even more dangerous and unstable…

  The teleportation gate behind Firmament Supreme!

  In all the universe, the most unstable thing of all was spacetime, and the teleportation gate built by the men in black was established within spacetime.

  The teleportation gate would stabilize once it was finished, but right now, it was still incomplete. This was why Firmament Supreme’s Grotto Heaven strength was restrained and he could only watch as the Earth Official and Water Official were killed.

  An extremely unstable energy core plus an extremely unstable teleportation gate colliding together created a completely predictable result…

  It would be like a snowflake striking a bonfire, but the reactions would be hundreds of millions of times more violent and grandiose.

  This was what Wang Chong had seen in the bonfire, and it was the ultimate method Wang Chong had devised against Firmament Supreme!

  Firmament Supreme was held down by the teleportation gate and was unable to utilize his full strength, making this the ideal moment to deal with him.

  Wang Chong knew that if he missed out on this chance and allowed the teleportation gate to be completed, he would get no other chance!

  “Seeking death!”

  When Firmament Supreme saw Divine Embryo 1 and the energy core emerge from the spacetime tunnel, his eyes flew open and his face paled.

  At this point, even a fool could see that he had fallen for Wang Chong’s trap.

  Divine Embryo 2 in the distance and Divine Embryo 3 underground near the energy core were bait. The hidden Divine Embryo 1 was the true trump card.

  As he understood this, his silver hair began to wildly dance, expressing his fury.

  These shameless rats dared to play tricks right before his eyes.

  Truly reckless fools!

  Bang!

  His beard trembled as his free hand clenched into a fist and punched above him.

  Buzz!

  Ripples appeared in the space in front of the energy core, and a new spacetime tunnel took form, which the giant energy core flew toward.

  One end of the spacetime tunnel was connected to the energy core and the other end was connected to the original position of the core, deep under the ground.

  Not only that, as he diverted the energy core, Firmament Supreme also unleashed his immense spacetime energy, Halos of Spacetime entrapping the torso and limbs of Divine Embryo 1. These Halos of Spacetime all pulled in different directions, seeking to tear Wang Chong’s divine embryo to pieces.

  “Spacetime Sunder!”

  Firmament Supreme’s mastery of the laws of spacetime was at the point where he could freely control it. Even though more than half of his energy was held down by the teleportation gate, he still had more than enough energy to deal with Divine Embryo 1 and Divine Embryo 3.

  A single Spacetime Sunder completely neutralized the assault Wang Chong had taken such great pains to plan.

  Firmament Supreme was simply too strong compared to Divine Embryos 1 and 3. While neutralizing the danger, he had also placed the divine embryos in grave peril.

  No matter how sturdy and powerful the divine embryos were, the unstoppable power of spacetime could obliterate them at any moment if Wang Chong wasn’t careful.

  These divine embryos that Wang Chong had gone to such great lengths to obtain could vanish in the blink of an eye.

  “Let me see what tricks you can play in front of this god!”

  Firmament Supreme’s voice was chilling to the bone, ringing out in the ears of Divine Embryos 1 and 3. At the same time, a storm of Psychic Energy engulfed the shores of the Caspian Sea.

  Bang!

  This psychic storm slammed into the minds of Divine Embryos 1 and 3, making them see stars. Their souls trembled, flickering like guttering candles that could go out at any moment.

  Firmament Supreme was simply too powerful!

  And he was too cautious!

  The teleportation gate was too important for the organization of men in black, and it could not be lost. Not even Firmament Supreme could take that risk. Even though his Spacetime Sunder had resolved the crisis, he had followed up with a mental storm to restrain Divine Embryos 1 and 3.

  Firmament Supreme wasn’t even using his full strength.

  Grotto Heaven experts were far more powerful than imagined.

  The situation was perilous. Divine Embryo 3 was suppressed and Divine Embryo 1 was on the verge of being crushed by Firmament Supreme’s Spacetime Sunder.

  But at this moment—

  A roar exploded over the shores of the Caspian Sea.

  “Nightmare Beast, do it!”

  Firmament Supreme’s eyes flew open, but before he could understand what Wang Chong meant, he heard an inhuman roar in his mind.

  Roooar!

  A terrifying energy that had been hiding in Wang Chong’s bosom this entire time exploded outward.

  Psychic Energy spread out over the world, taking the form of a black mist.

  Most alarming for Firmament Supreme was that he could sense a frightening Psychic Energy in that black mist, several dozen times greater than Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy. Even he felt somewhat threatened by it.

  “What is this?!”

  His eyes twitched as his face paled in shock.

 
His attention was entirely on Divine Embryos 1 and 3, never having imagined a development like this.

  But it was too late. In truth, even if Firmament Supreme had been ready, he would have found it hard to stand against the Nightmare Beast’s full-force attack.

  Bang!

  A moment later, the Nightmare Beast’s frightening amount of Psychic Energy slammed into Firmament Supreme’s mind.

  “Argh!”

  Firmament Supreme painfully howled, his body trembling as his mind splintered apart.

  Not even someone as powerful as Firmament Supreme could stand against the Nightmare Beast’s supreme strike.

  This was especially the case after he had unleashed the psychic storm, which had left him in his most vulnerable state.

  The Nightmare Beast’s Psychic Energy attack also affected Firmament Supreme’s Stellar Energy and spacetime power, throwing them into disarray.

  Firmament Supreme’s actions were also slowed by this heavy blow to his mind.

  “An excellent chance!”

  Divine Embryo 1 and Divine Embryo 3 seized this rare chance, erupting with Stellar Energy to break free of Firmament Supreme’s power.

  “Now!”

  Rather than fleeing, Wang Chong’s divine embryos rushed forward to push the giant energy core.

  Bang!

  The fabric of space trembled as the two divine embryos poured all their strength into the core. With a mighty howl, the energy core surged toward the teleportation gate.

  “No!”

  Firmament Supreme trembled in shock, his face paling.

  Grotto Heaven Stellar Energy exploded with a sun-like radiance from his dantian. Spurred on by his fury, Firmament Supreme unleashed all his strength. The region trembled with spacetime power, and overlapping golden Halos of Spacetime began to cover the region.

  The giant energy core was already halfway into the teleportation gate, but at this moment, several dozen golden Halos of Spacetime wrapped around it.

  There was still time. This was Firmament Supreme’s last chance.

  Wang Chong, the Nightmare Beast, and the faceless man all scowled. None of them had expected that Firmament Supreme would still be able to pull back the energy core when it was so deep into the teleportation gate.
