  Bang!

  Before Wunu Shibi could react, boundless Stellar Energy erupted from the earth, knocking away dirt and snow, and penetrated into his body.

  This peak Subtle realm energy, half a step away from the Grotto Heaven realm, broke through Wunu Shibi’s defenses and into his dantian, transforming into a sealing ring that locked away all his Stellar Energy!

  “Youuuu!”

  Shocked and angered, Wunu Shibi tried to jump away, instinctively tried to resist, but he was too late.

  Boom! A few seconds later, Wunu Shibi’s energy plunged from the Great General level all the way to the level of an ordinary person.

  Wunu Shibi’s body went limp, and he dropped to the ground as if all the energy had been drained out of him.

  His face went as white as a sheet of paper.

  His energy being sealed was like a bird being deprived of its wings, a tiger shorn of its claws. He no longer presented any threat.

  Wang Chong did not have so many concerns on his mind.

  Swoosh!

  He made a grabbing motion with his hand, upon which Wunu Shibi flew through the air and landed at his feet.

  “A wise man knows when to submit to fate. However, only the present you can allow one to truly relax.”

  Wang Chong looked down at Wunu Shibi and smiled.

  As Wang Chong spoke to the pale-faced Wunu Shibi, Ishbara Khagan’s weak voice came from nearby. “You madman, you won’t succeed! Even if you kill me, the Western Turks will never obey you! The Tang will never reign over the Turks!”

  He clambered out of the snow, blood trickling from his lips, and he appeared extremely weak. Unlike Wunu Shibi, his dantian had been shattered by Wang Chong, destroying his cultivation.

  The current Ishbara Khagan was crippled!

  Wang Chong stared straight ahead and calmly said, “There’s no need for you to worry about it. If the Western Turks won’t cooperate, I can just kill them all!”

  This calm tone frightened Ishbara Khagan and all the Western Turkic generals, sending a chill running through their hearts.

  Kill all the Western Turks?

  What sort of madman could say such things?!

  If it had been someone else, they truly would have treated these words as the ravings of a madman, not worth trusting, but Wang Chong…

  When they thought about how millions of people had died at Wang Chong’s hands, they couldn’t bring themselves to laugh.

  It was not for no reason that Wang Chong was feared by all the other countries and known as the ‘Butcher’.

  “Of course, if the Western Turks are willing to cooperate and are open and sincere, not trying any tricks in secret, if Khagan is willing to abdicate all authority to Fourth Prince Barshad, then that will be another matter entirely!”

  Wang Chong suddenly changed his tone, softly chuckling.

  Ishbara Khagan, Wunu Shibi, and the Western Turkic generals shivered.

  Fourth Prince Barshad spoke at this time, his head lowered and his tone firm. “Your Highness, be at ease. Although the Western Turks are beyond your civilized borders, we are still trustworthy. From now, the Western Turks will be the Great Tang’s firmest ally!”

  No one amongst the Western Turks understood Wang Chong more than him. He had joined the Great Tang and opposed Irbis Shiyun and Ishbara Khagan precisely because of Wang Chong.

  In his view, opposing the Great Tang only meant death.

  “Barshad, this king trusts that you will keep your promise.”

  Wang Chong smiled.

  “In addition, I leave Irbis Shiyun to you. With your abilities, I trust that you can handle him properly?”

  “Your Highness, be at ease. Barshad knows what should be done.”

  Barshad respectfully bowed.

  In the entire Western Turkic Khaganate, the only person that one needed to be concerned about was Ishbara Khagan. Now that Wang Chong had appeared, Irbis Shiyun and Wunu Shibi weren’t worth worrying about.

  As for the rest, without a leader, they couldn’t form a substantial threat.

  “Right, Your Highness!”

  At this moment, Duwu Sili, who had been standing nearby, suddenly rushed forward to stand in front of Wang Chong.

  In front of the domineering Wang Chong, Duwu Sili appeared hesitant, both afraid and eager.

  “Your Highness, what you promised me…” Duwu Sili couldn’t help but say.

  “So that’s what this is about!”

  Wang Chong grinned.

  “This king already agreed to treat your cultivation defect, so I naturally will, but now is not the time.”

  “Understood, understood!”

  Duwu Sili let out a sigh of relief, his entire body relaxing.

  In the Battle of Talas, because he had cultivated ‘formation phenomena’, he suffered from a cultivation defect that caused his strength to plunge to less than half of what it was at his peak. Recently, Wang Chong had emerged and used the Origin Immortal Art to heal his injuries, additionally increasing his cultivation. It was this major boost in strength that allowed him to manifest the Celestial Wolf of Desolation that had defeated Wunu Shibi.

  But Wang Chong had told him before this that this boost would be temporary, that he would need to treat him again to totally remove the injuries.

  Swoosh!

  Wang Chong left Wunu Shibi and Ishbara Khagan to Duwu Sili and then headed for the summit.

  Now that Ishbara Khagan was taken care of, all that was left were Supreme Divine and Meteor Divine.

  Once those two were taken care of, the discord in the Western Turkic Khaganate would be totally pacified.

  “Attend me! Pass on my order! The Khagan has decreed that we are siding with the Great Tang!”

  As Wang Chong departed, Barshad swiftly issued several orders.

  “Mamur, Buduti, take the tokens of Imperial Father and Great General Wunu Shibi and end the battle down below!

  “Imperial Father, Great General, I have wronged you!

  “Duwu Sili, take care of the emissaries from Ü-Tsang and Youzhou.”

  Wang Chong’s eyes flashed with satisfaction upon hearing that composed voice.

  He had chosen Fourth Prince Barshad for good reason. Compared to how he had been at their first meeting more than one year ago, Barshad was now both courageous and wise, calm and strategic. He had experienced an evolution.

  He had the bearing of a sovereign, and with his abilities and Duwu Sili’s support, he was more than capable of controlling the Western Turkic Khaganate.

  Of course, Wang Chong was also not afraid that Barshad might be planning some sort of scheme. That would simply be suicidal.

  Whoosh!

  With these thoughts in mind, Wang Chong hastened his pace, rising into the sky.

  Wang Chong had been here for some time now, and for some reason, these two newly-appeared experts of the Celestial God Organization felt very strange to him.

  Their power… was extremely special!

  “Damn it!”

  In the air, Supreme Divine and Meteor Divine were battling fiercely with the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief.

  The two of them had long ago noticed the battle on the ground, and they had also noticed Wang Chong’s sudden appearance.

  The two of them had tried multiple times to kill the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief so they could join the battle below, but they had failed.

  These two human elders were much more difficult to deal with than they had imagined.

  Even worse was that the human youth who had appeared last was extremely frightening.

  The two of them were strong enough to deal with the Wushang Village Chief and Demonic Emperor Old Man, but a third expert of this caliber was their breaking point.

  The battle had quickly turned against them.r />
  “Chong-er, let’s work together to kill them!” the Demonic Emperor Old Man called out in his deep voice, also noticing Wang Chong coming over.

  “Their Stellar Energies are infused with ancient, natural divine power. Use your Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art to absorb it, and it will definitely be of great assistance to you!”

  “Natural divine power?”

  Wang Chong was flabbergasted. He had never heard of energy of this sort before.

  “Bastard! This god doesn’t believe he can’t kill you!”

  Supreme Divine was infuriated by the Demonic Emperor Old Man’s words.

  Bang!

  Stellar Energy erupted from his body, and the terrifying abyss behind him surged with power. Dark clouds formed in the air and swept toward the Demonic Emperor Old Man.

  “Myriad Energies Become One!”

  The Demonic Emperor Old Man’s robes rustled around him as he brought the index and middle fingers of his right hand together. With a great rumble, he manifested tens of thousands of giant swords that shot forward and slammed into Supreme Divine’s attack.

  In the hands of the current Demonic Emperor Old Man, the Myriad Spirit Sea Art was now tinged with the power of spacetime, and his dark golden Sword Qi seemed unstoppable!

  Boomboomboom!

  Energies clashed, and in the end, no matter how much Supreme Divine raged, he failed to break through the Demonic Emperor Old Man’s attack.

  “Let’s go!”

  Seeing that he had failed to defeat the Demonic Emperor Old Man multiple times, Supreme Divine began to consider retreat.

  If he survived, he would still have a chance! Now that the enemy had more peak experts than his side, and seeing that Ishbara Khagan was crippled and the Western Turks now bound to join the Great Tang, his first priority was now to retreat and preserve his strength. They could think of some way to recruit the Western Turkic Khaganate in the future.

  “Hmph! It’s too late to think about leaving.” With a cold and emotionless voice, Wang Chong attacked.

  “Great Destruction Art!”

  The earth for several dozen li around trembled, all of Mount Sanmi shuddering as the vast energy of the earth was pulled into Wang Chong’s body, in the end transforming into an attack of immense destructive power.

  Crack! The fabric of space tore apart as a wave of green-black energy swept toward Supreme Divine.

  At this moment, the entire world seemed to pale!

  “Not good!”

  Supreme Divine instantly felt an intense danger.

  If he had been facing one person, whether it was the Demonic Emperor Old Man or Wang Chong, he would have felt no fear, but the two of them working together was something else entirely.

  “Ancient Thunder Deity!”

  Supreme Divine’s body exploded with lightning, and a dark energy that was infused with the power of nature, that was even more domineering than the energy of the Subtle realm, burst out of his body.

  And when Supreme Divine used this move, thunder rumbled in the clouds overhead, and silver snakes streaked through the snowstorm to appear behind Supreme Divine.

  With the assistance of this primal energy, Supreme Divine grew stronger and stronger, and a mysterious golden symbol appeared on the center of his forehead.

  The golden symbol was somewhat blurred and indistinct, as if it was still incomplete.

  Bang!

  In a flash, the dark lightning Supreme Divine had summoned collided with the attacks from Wang Chong and the Demonic Emperor Old Man. Crack! The heavens darkened as they were torn open, the region around the trio ravaged by chaotic and violent streams of energy.

  Even the snow falling from the sky seemed frozen in time.

  But a moment later, squelch! A sharp blade cut through flesh.

  Supreme Divine shivered as his eyes flew open and he slowly looked down. There, an extremely sharp, golden short halberd had pierced through his back and come out his front, dripping blood from its tip.

  As this halberd pierced through him, Supreme Divine felt all the energy draining out of him like air from a punctured balloon.

  “This is… Firmament Supreme’s weapon…”

  Supreme Divine’s face went pale in disbelief as he stared.

  In the Celestial God Organization, all of the Supremes were mighty individuals. Firmament Supreme’s golden short halberd was known for carrying a powerful Stellar-piercing attribute. Not even the Three Divines of the Heavenly Mandate could stop it.

  He had never imagined that Firmament Supreme’s divine weapon would fall into Wang Chong’s hands, and that Wang Chong could even activate its special attributes.

  “Noooo!” A scream came from nearby.

  Meteor Divine had seen this scene transpire with widened eyes, his breath almost stopping.

  Supreme Divine was not dead, but he was a step away!

  Meteor Divine could have never imagined that someone of Supreme Divine’s strength couldn’t withstand even one move from Wang Chong.

  Everything had happened too quickly. He hadn’t even had a chance to stop him.

  Whoosh!

  A moment later, Meteor Divine gave up on the Wushang Village Chief and immediately began to flee.

  But though Meteor Divine had reacted quickly, the Wushang Village Chief was even faster.

  Bang!

  The Wushang Village Chief threw out his white cane. Raaah! With a roar, the cane transformed into a white dragon that pursued Meteor Divine.

  “Ah!”

  Sensing the danger approaching, Meteor Divine was forced to turn his head and fire off an attack to block the Wushang Village Chief’s assault.

  But this slight delay decided Meteor Divine’s fate.

  “Kill!”

  Wang Chong’s eyes turned cold. Grabbing Supreme Divine with one hand, he shot after Meteor Divine, the Demonic Emperor Old Man following close behind.

  Battles between experts were decided in seconds!

  Though Meteor Divine had only turned back for a moment, this was more than enough for his enemies.

  The trio of Wang Chong, the Demonic Emperor Old Man, and the Wushang Village Chief was essentially unstoppable unless a master of Genesis Supreme’s level appeared.

  “Aaaaah!” A few moments later, with a blood-chilling scream, the battle ended.

  Whoosh!

  After a long while, Wang Chong let out a long breath of air, his body cracking and groaning.

  As Meteor Divine’s power entered his body, Wang Chong swelled in strength.

  Moreover, with a thought from him, Wang Chong distorted the space around him, and meteors created from Stellar Energy manifested around him.

  Dark Heavens!

  After absorbing Meteor Divine’s energy, Wang Chong had also obtained this ‘Dark Heavens’ ability from him.

  A mighty divine power that was completely different from Subtle realm energy was now flowing through his body. Though the skies were covered in dark clouds and falling snow, Wang Chong could sense meteoroids high up in space.

  He seemed to have some sort of mysterious connection with them. He even felt like he could absorb energy from them to strengthen himself.

  This was another form of universal energy!

  This journey to the Western Turks was truly worth it! Wang Chong said to himself.

  Crack! He twisted his hand, snapping Meteor Divine’s neck. The body dropped from the skies and crashed into the snow.

  Wang Chong turned his gaze to Supreme Divine, who was being held by his master.

  Supreme Divine venomously glared at Wang Chong and hatefully said, “Wang Chong, you won’t die a good death! Mortals who oppose gods have never met a good end!

  “Venerable Genesis Supreme won’t let you go!”

  “What? He’s still not dead?”


  Wang Chong smiled at these words.

  “It seems I wasn’t vicious enough last time and let him escape. But next time, he won’t get so lucky!”

  Supreme Divine stretched out his neck and viciously said, “Don’t get too cocky! Venerable Genesis Supreme has already repaired his body, and Heaven has granted him a treasure. He will only be stronger than before. But you won’t have the Miniature Nine Provinces Domain to protect you anymore!”

  If looks could kill, Wang Chong would have died countless times by now.

  “Oh?”

  Wang Chong raised an eyebrow. This was undoubtedly an unexpected harvest.

  He clearly recalled Genesis Supreme shattering from his attack, leaving only a soul that fled in panic.

  But Supreme Divine had revealed that not only had he recovered, he had obtained a new body.

  The men in black really did have the ability to recreate a body!

  This was a truly shocking ability. Wang Chong’s heart couldn’t help but tremble in apprehension.

  But he quickly calmed himself down.

  “Relax. I won’t give him another chance. Genesis Supreme will be utterly slain next time!”

  Wang Chong coldly chuckled and then grabbed Supreme Divine’s head.

  Boom!

  The Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art activated, and the natural divine power in Supreme Divine’s body surged out of him and into Wang Chong, strengthening him. At the same time, Wang Chong sent a stream of Psychic Energy into Supreme Divine’s mind.

  No matter how much Supreme Divine said, it wouldn’t compare to using mental techniques to personally search him for information on the Celestial God Organization.

  Someone at Supreme Divine’s level of strength was probably privy to a great deal of information, but Wang Chong wanted to know only one thing: where the base of the Celestial God Organization was!

  Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy flowed into Supreme Divine’s mind, and at the center, he once more saw that gleaming golden seal.

  Just like all the other men in black, Supreme Divine had a Psychic Seal in the center of his mind, but unlike ordinary men in black, the Psychic Seal in the minds of the Three Divines of the Heavenly Mandate was purely meant to defend against outsiders. It did not prevent them from entering and leaving their primary base.
