  Chapter 2310: The Divine Dimensional Superposition Art!

  Translated by: Hypersheep325

  Edited by: Michyrr

  The ancient palace appeared to be several hundred years old, perhaps even a thousand. Amongst the buildings were numerous giant blue wolves forged of some unknown metal, but the most striking of all was the bronze idol in front of the palace, standing more than fifty meters high. This idol was covered in armor and holding a halberd, its long and thin eyes dignified and composed. It appeared identical to a Turk, though it exuded an additional extraordinary divinity.

  Let alone Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme, even the hidden Wang Chong couldn’t help but be shocked.

  “Incredible! It seems that this is the real Mount Yaluo.”

  Wang Chong was too far away to make out anything clearly, but there was no doubt that the idol in front of the palace complex was the legendary Turkic War God, the true Luo Supreme.

  And the resplendence of this palace complex indicated that Luo Supreme’s religion had undoubtedly enjoyed a moment of unimaginable splendor on these lands of the north. Alas, later on, Luo Supreme chose to conceal it all, even this most important palace complex.

  Moreover, from the metallic wolves on the summit, one could conclude that even the Turkic veneration of wolves was inextricably connected to Luo Supreme, perhaps had even been his handiwork.

  “The Divine Dimensional Superposition Art!”

  Grand Supreme was shaken by this sight.

  As one of the upper echelons of the Celestial God Organization, he had a keen understanding of the various arts of the organization.

  There were many kinds of spacetime power, like spacetime travel, spacetime bridging, spacetime leaps, and even using existing spatial frameworks to establish small dimensions. But amongst all the spacetime abilities, the Divine Dimensional Superposition Art was one of the most difficult.

  It allowed two completely different dimensions to be superpositioned on each other and made them seem as one, leaving no abnormality. Not even Grand Supreme or Radiance Supreme had been able to master it.

  Moreover, Luo Supreme had maintained this region for several thousand years without any of the mortals or experts passing by noticing anything strange, despite the scale of Mount Yaluo. It was evident that Luo Supreme had reached an extremely mature level of the Divine Dimensional Superposition Art, and he was probably even stronger than when he had left the Celestial God Organization.

  “Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, Radiance Supreme, those who come from afar are guests, but after several thousand years, it seems you are just as crude and brash as ever.” A booming voice tinged with savagery, divinity, and majesty resounded through the world.

  As that voice spoke, space froze, and Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme couldn’t help but tense up in fear.

  Luo Supreme was extremely shrewd. He had managed to completely avoid everyone’s attention while planning his rebellion, and when he was leaving, he even managed to take two of the Doomsday Insignias, restraining Heaven’s power and preventing Heaven from having the time to deal with him.

  In terms of strength, Luo Supreme was far more powerful than the two of them.

  “Heheh, since we are guests from afar, why not open a spatial passage and welcome us in?” Essence Supreme said as he looked upward with a smirk.

  “It has been a very long time since I last received a guest. Although I said several thousand years ago that I was not receiving guests, it seems such words are no good against uninvited guests like you. Since you insist, open up the spatial passage yourself!” Luo Supreme indifferently said.

  Once this was said, that savage energy quickly withdrew and vanished without a trace, the entire region once more falling still.

  Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme exchanged a silent glance.

  All they had managed to expose so far was the religious sacred land that Luo Supreme had established several thousand years ago in the mortal realm. This was completely different from the dimension in which he resided.

  Every Grotto Heaven realm expert had a powerful concealment ability, with those rebels being masters in it. These people had fused their Grotto Heaven laws with the fabric of spacetime, becoming like drops of rain amidst the ocean and impossible to find.

  “Let’s go!” Essence Supreme suddenly said, stirring them from their stupor. With a wave of his sleeve, he gathered up the golden boat and floated down to the central palace in the complex.

  Essence Supreme instantly appeared within the hall, in front of an old, black-robed shamaness with shriveled skin and white hair.

  “Talk! Where is the spatial entrance to your god?”

  “I-I don’t know!”

  The old shamaness was in panic. If An Lushan had been here, he would have undoubtedly been shocked, for this old shamaness was none other than the one who An Lushan had gone to meet at Mount Yaluo at the start of his rebellion.

  “Hmph, you still plan to resort to such lowly methods in front of me?”

  Essence Supreme glanced at her and then snapped his fingers, after which he lightly pushed the old shamaness. As the woman staggered backward, her body flashed, and a moment later, she transformed, her disguise torn away. From an elderly crone of eighty years old, she became a white-robed priestess of thirty-some years, the one who had appeared before.

  Realizing that the seal on her body had been broken, the priestess panicked, but she instantly regained her composure.

  “Don’t get any ideas! Even if you kill me, I will not tell you. Moreover, I also have no idea where Master’s location is.”

  The white-robed priestess’s face was stern, and it seemed that she had already prepared herself for the worst-case scenario as she fearlessly spoke.

  “Hmph, relax. I won’t take your life. I just need a drop of your essence blood.”

  Essence Supreme grinned.

  Before the priestess could react, an enormous energy bound her up, fixing her body in the air. A look of extreme unease appeared in her eyes as she apparently realized something.

  Swish!

  A moment later, a silver needle of Stellar Energy jabbed into her body, and the priestess couldn’t help but shriek in pain. A moment later, a golden drop of blood was drawn out from her heart.

  “Found it!”

  Essence Supreme’s eyes smiled as he looked at the golden drop of blood.

  Every one of these so-called gods had a close connection to their priests and shamans. Some people could receive oracles from their gods, and others could directly hear their voice.

  The white-robed priestess belonged to the latter category, and she could achieve this result because of this drop of ‘divine blood’.

  “Luo Supreme, you can’t keep hiding!”

  Essence Supreme coldly laughed. Tossing the priestess to the side, he placed the golden blood on the center of his compass, where there was a golden needle that was half an inch long.

  The Guiding Needle!

  For this journey to the north, Heaven had modified Essence Supreme’s personal ritual tool, reforging it and granting the Supreme Essence Compass a new ability.

  Rumble!

  A wind ripped across the lands, and as thunder boomed, the compass shuddered. In a flash, it broke free of Essence Supreme’s hands and appeared above the palace complex.

  At the same time, countless threads of silver light twined together into a giant awl that pointed at a certain point in spacetime.

  Within the hall, Essence Supreme shared his vision with the other two, and as they peered into the depths of spacetime, they saw several thread-like spacetime trails left by a dimensional passage, leading deeper into spacetime.

  “Found it!”

  “It’s Luo Supreme’s dimension!” Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme said.

  The white-robed priestess turned ghastly pale.

  The paradises of gods were always hidden away in places no mortals could ever reach. She had never imagined that these people would real
ly be able to find the heaven in which her god dwelled.

  “Let’s go!”

  Without the slightest hesitation, Essence Supreme and the others boarded the golden boat and shot away toward the location where Luo Supreme was hiding.

  Sensing that the three of them had vanished, the priestess hastily got back up, brought her hands together, and entered a meditative stance, cold beads of sweat forming on her temples.

  “Master, those three are heading toward your divine kingdom.”

  The priestess felt extremely uneasy. Those three had been far stronger than she had imagined.

  She felt an intense danger.

  But all was quiet, and unlike before, the divine kingdom was quiet. No matter how much the priestess prayed, she received no response.

  After losing that drop of divine blood, she seemed to have truly lost her ability to communicate with her god. After several failures, she grew even paler.

  After some time, just when the white-robed priestess was about to panic, that familiar voice traveled through dimensions to ring out in her mind.

  “There is no need to worry. All of this is within my expectations. Close the palace gate and leave everything to me.”

  The white-robed priestess raised her head, a look of delight on her face.

  “Yes, Master!”

  The white-robed priestess hastily lowered her head and bowed.

  Her master’s strength was boundless, far above that of anyone else. Since he had spoken, it meant that he had planned everything out.

  That voice quickly disappeared, and she once again lost her connection to him.

  The white-robed priestess softly exhaled and quickly regained her composure. Her body began to exude a graceful and hallowed aura.

  As a light breeze blew in, the priestess tied the white scarf around her eyes and walked out. As she extended a hand, various divine symbols began to appear in her palm, assembling into a formation. Just like before, the formation activated, sealing up this place.

  Buzz!

  In a series of ripples, the dimension in which Mount Yaluo was located began to slowly disappear like two curtains were being slowly drawn over it.

  Whoosh!

  But just when this dimension was about to close, there was a gust of wind, and two figures silently appeared at the priestess’s side.

  Buzz!

  Everything froze, and that faint smile on the priestess’s face went stiff.

  “Who are you?” the priestess gravely said to these two newcomers.

  She had already noticed these two, and Wang Chong had not actually tried too hard to hide his tracks at the time. But back then, the priestess had not paid them too much regard, taking them as peerless experts of some tribe.

  No matter how strong ants were, they were still ants, and for a god, there was no difference, all of them equally insignificant. But at this moment, the priestess realized that she had underestimated them, that these were no ordinary experts.

  Moreover, her master’s oracle had only mentioned Essence Supreme’s group, not these people. But right after Essence Supreme had gone, these two people had appeared. This meant that they had been in hiding nearby this entire time. This alone was not something that mortal experts were capable of.

  The priestess became extremely wary. Her master’s oracles had never been wrong. These people were far too bizarre.

  “Hmph, just a puny priestess! I don’t need to tell you anything.”

  Li Xuantu coldly snorted and grabbed the priestess, planning to extract the information on Essence Supreme and Luo Supreme from her mind.

  Priests were simply slaves. Li Xuantu had once been the Crown Prince of the Great Tang and had a revered status, so he naturally wouldn’t bring himself to care about some priestess.

  But at this moment, Wang Chong extended a hand and stopped Li Xuantu. “Wait!”

  Wang Chong carefully examined the priestess as he asked, “You are An Lushan’s birth mother?”

  For Li Xuantu, this woman was just a bystander, but this was not the case for Wang Chong.

  In his last life, there had been rumors regarding the relationship between An Lushan and the Turkic War God. At least half of them had originated from An Lushan himself. In the past, the Turkic War God was just some vague concept, a legend, and he naturally wouldn’t have taken it seriously. But when he discovered that the Turkic War God from several thousand years ago actually was a real person and was Luo Supreme of the Celestial God Organization, Wang Chong had an entirely different attitude.

  If it was all true, then things were far more complicated than they seemed.

  The mention of ‘An Lushan’ caused the priestess’s composure to fall apart, and she began to tremble.

  “How did you know…?” the priestess instinctively asked, but midway, she realized something. As she looked at this youth that was clearly from the Central Plains, she had a sudden insight.

  “You’re that Child of Destruction!”

  Wang Chong smiled, not denying it.

  Luo Supreme had been part of the Celestial God Organization, so it wasn’t surprising that she learned about the Child of Destruction from Luo Supreme. Moreover, based on her reaction, it seemed that the rumor that An Lushan was the son of the Turkic War God was true.

  Wang Chong nodded. Meanwhile, the priestess’s mind fell into turmoil.

  A ‘Child of Destruction’ actually didn’t signify anything to her. What truly left the priestess shocked was that if this person was the Child of Destruction, then he was also the person who her son, An Lushan, had fought with for a lifetime and had ultimately died to.

  The priestess’s face flickered, and for a moment, an intense killing intent welled up in her heart.

  But the priestess was no match for him. Just as Li Xuantu believed, priests were just the slaves of gods and had no ability to fight. Even though she knew Wang Chong’s identity, she could not do anything.

  “So you were the mother of that source of disaster!”

  Li Xuantu narrowed his eyes and clamped his hand around the priestess’s neck, raising her into the air.

  Li Xuantu had not known about the connection between An Lushan and this priestess. Though it had been a long time since he had participated in government affairs, he was still part of the House of Li. This woman had given birth to An Lushan, who had brought chaos to the Central Plains. This alone was enough to have her killed one hundred times.

  But there was no fear in the priestess’s eyes as she was raised into the air by Li Xuantu.

  “It shouldn’t be. Yaluoshan was the Child of Heaven’s will, the child of a god. He was destined to unite the world. It shouldn’t have been like this,” she muttered to herself, but her eyes quickly turned to Wang Chong.

  “It seems that you truly are the Child of Destruction. This world will be destroyed at your hands!”

  “Put her down,” Wang Chong said. He could tell that this priestess was just an ordinary person with no special abilities.

  Wang Chong wouldn’t just kill her because she had given birth to An Lushan. After all, it was no sin to give birth to a child.

  Bang!

  As they were speaking, a rumbling could be heard. Wang Chong came to his senses and realized that the underground formation had completely activated, drawing the curtains on the dimension and sealing the entire region.

  The priestess held in the air by Li Xuantu also came to her senses.

  “You’ve come for my master, but I won’t let you succeed. None of you will be leaving here today!” the priestess announced, a look of stubborn determination on her face.

  She had long ago offered her entire life to this greatest god of the Turks. While An Lushan was important, nothing could compare to that Turkic god
hidden in the depths of spacetime.

  She had already prepared herself for death.

  “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. I just need to see a little of what you saw!”

  Wang Chong smiled and placed a finger on the priestess’s forehead.

  Bang!

  The scene of Essence Supreme appearing in the hall and using the compass to find the entrance appeared in Wang Chong’s eyes.

  A sky of silver thread engulfed the heavens, and in this silver net, there was one region that stood out.

  That’s the place!

  Wang Chong’s eyes gleamed. From a distance, he had already sensed that some things were not real, and with the memories of the priestess and her point of view, he was able to fill in that gap in knowledge and find out what was really going on.

  At Wang Chong’s level of cultivation, one did not need a drop of divine blood or magical compass to find a dimension. With his own understanding of space and some key information, he could also find that entrance to the divine kingdom.

  He was enjoying the benefits from the hard work of those who came before. With Essence Supreme having already opened the way once, it would be much easier to go in again.

  “Let’s go!”

  Ignoring the priestess, Wang Chong grabbed Li Xuantu and shot toward the air, vanishing into space.

  This wasn’t Wang Chong’s first time traveling through dimensions and entering a passage. He could sense that countless other dimensions were flowing past him.

  Not only that, as he passed through this secret spacetime passage, he could even sense that the surroundings had been covered with many formations and seals.

  It seemed that the rebellious Luo Supreme had been ready for any intruders.

  But a significant number of seals and formations had been broken—clearly the work of Essence Supreme’s group.

  Bang!

  As these thoughts passed through his mind, Wang Chong released a dark golden Halo of Spacetime to protect him.

  Once he had done this, Wang Chong accelerated, locking onto that energy within the depths of spacetime.

  From a distance, one would be able to see just how twisting and complicated this passage was. It required leaping through numerous other dimensions, and the final destination was a vast distance away from Mount Yaluo. From a certain perspective, it could be considered to be in another universe entirely.
