The first to sense this were Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme. The two of them had been heavily injured from the earlier battle, their strength greatly reduced. But at this moment, their energies were rapidly restored, and their injuries instantly began to heal.
The situation was now extremely bad for Wang Chong.
Wang Chong said nothing, but as he looked at that figure in the air, he felt like his head was about to explode.
Danger!
With Heaven’s appearance, this trip to the Turkic steppe had become extremely dangerous.
“Child of Destruction, better to seize the opportunity than wait for a lucky day! Since we’ve run into each other, I might as well start with you!”
Surprisingly, Heaven’s first target upon appearing was not Luo Supreme, but Wang Chong.
Buzz!
Heaven opened his left hand and lightly snatched in Wang Chong’s direction, upon which winds began to stir.
Raaaa! With a mighty dragon roar, energy began to converge, transforming into tens of thousands of dragons that lunged at Wang Chong.
Bang!
Wang Chong immediately moved to dodge the attack.
But Heaven’s casual strike was far more frightening than it seemed. Almost the moment Heaven had raised his hand, the dragon-shaped Stellar Energies had already slammed into Wang Chong’s position. Not only that, this energy was infused with disruptive spacetime energy that heavily affected all other kinds of spacetime energy.
“Trayastrimsa Heaven!”
A pavilion rose into the air and then swiftly transformed into a sturdy wall in front of Wang Chong.
The Trayastrimsa Heaven was the ability of the Origin Immortal Art, but Wang Chong had long ago changed it, turning it from gold to platinum tinged with a hint of azure—a sign that he was nearing supreme mastery.
Wang Chong had reached the Grotto Heaven realm and also had Origin Supreme’s memories, so he had truly comprehended the secrets of the Trayastrimsa Heaven. He no longer rigidly adhered to any form or technique.
Bang!
Wang Chong’s Trayastrimsa Heaven wall clashed with Heaven’s attack, and the wall was instantly obliterated. But Wang Chong had used this moment to successfully dodge Heaven’s attack and create some distance.
“King of Foreign Lands, the two of us will work together, and I will do as I promised to you earlier!” Luo Supreme suddenly said, an extremely grim expression on his face.
No one understood Heaven’s power more than him. If they tried to fight on their own, whether it was Wang Chong or him, they would both be doomed.
Heaven’s mastery of the martial arts far surpassed them. Even if they had been on the same level of strength, Heaven’s fighting prowess was enough to make anyone despair.
“Is that so?”
Heaven softly chuckled at Luo Supreme’s words.
“Luo Supreme, have you forgotten who granted you your strength?”
Before anyone could react, Heaven disappeared.
“Hurry and retreat!”
Luo Supreme’s eyes twitched, and he immediately joined together with Alpha Supreme, combining their Stellar Energies into an all-out attack.
But their combined attack had barely taken form when an even stronger energy blasted it apart.
“Ah!”
With a scream, Luo Supreme, Alpha Supreme, and numerous divine warriors were sent flying like leaves in the wind, terrifying energy sweeping them aside.
At least half of the divine warriors were obliterated in the shockwave before flying very far, turned to dust, and the three-eyed wolves were also annihilated without leaving even the trace of a corpse.
Such strength left one aghast!
“The Pantheon Pearl! To think that you actually managed to create one!”
Luo Supreme’s face twitched, his eyes stricken with fear.
The Pantheon Pearl?
Wang Chong’s heart trembled at Luo Supreme’s words.
Wang Chong didn’t know what this Pantheon Pearl was, but it clearly boded ill for them.
“King of Foreign Lands, be careful! The Pantheon Pearl is a special ritual tool that must be produced using a method that requires at least one Doomsday Insignia. By burning the soul energy of at least one Supreme, Heaven can briefly break out of his shackles and use an additional twenty to thirty percent of his original body’s strength. Only by working together do we have a chance of surviving!”
Luo Supreme stared ahead as he grimly spoke.
Heaven’s original body had been sealed long ago by ‘that man’, and breaking free of that formation was nearly impossible. Thus, Heaven could only roam outside of it by extracting some of his power and forming it into an avatar.
But this was not a constant.
This ritual tool was extremely difficult to create. Besides a Doomsday Insignia, it also required the core of a sun.
The sun was the center of the universe and was hundreds of millions of li from the earth. It was basically impossible to obtain a part of the core of the sun, so Luo Supreme had never even thought of this possibility.
But now, what Luo Supreme had worried about the most had taken place.
“Hmph, still deluded even now! Fool!”
Heaven’s cold laugh resounded through the dimension.
In his eyes, Wang Chong and Luo Supreme were nothing but ants.
For so many years, his original body had been sealed, and he had been forced to rely on his avatars to move around outside. But even these avatars were greatly restricted, so much so that even the likes of Luo Supreme were capable of resisting him. Now, though, everything had changed.
The Pantheon Pearl!
Something that could change the rules of the game!
A long, long time ago, when his original body had been sealed, he had thought about creating this special ritual tool. Alas, the Pantheon Pearl was far too difficult to create. The core of the sun alone was difficult to get his hands on, let alone the other rare materials it required.
Moreover, creating this ritual tool had a very high chance of failure. In truth, he had already attempted creating it many times.
But just a few days ago, he had finally succeeded.
With the Pantheon Pearl, he could penetrate through the seal and utilize even more of his power!
This avatar formed from the Pantheon Pearl was stronger than any that had preceded it!
Whether it was Wang Chong or Luo Supreme, they were just walking corpses in Heaven’s eyes.
“This world’s fate is already decided. Anyone who defies Us must die!”
Heaven’s hair and robes rippled with energy, his every move radiating power and pressure. Both Wang Chong and Luo Supreme paled before Heaven.
Buzz!
Heaven opened his right hand, and dark clouds immediately gathered, thunder crackling within them. They gathered together into a giant lightning storm, and a massive shadow could be seen within that began to engulf Luo Supreme.
Heaven was about to strike.
Behind Heaven, Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme were stunned.
It was clear that they had not known that Heaven had successfully created the Pantheon Pearl. Essence Supreme had successfully hidden this fact from them. Even so, this was wonderful news for the two of them.
“Great One, you can’t let them go!”
“This is the perfect chance to seize them all in one fell swoop!”
Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme stared at the two figures in the distance.
Once Luo Supreme and the Child of Destruction were killed, only Unity Supreme in the Tibetan Plateau would be left, and Unity Supreme was but a single block of wood, unable to prop up a falling gate by itself. The internal strife that the Celestial God Organization had been embroiled in for so many years would finally end. Once all the Doomsday Insignias were gathered, Heaven would reemerge and the organization would return to its peak state from numerous epochs ago.
This entire world would be theirs.
“I
s that so?” a cold voice said.
Tens of thousands of feet away, Wang Chong had spoken, his eyes cold.
Heaven was at his strongest state yet, even more frightening than he had been in the capital, but Wang Chong was fearless.
Buzz!
In a flash of light, the three Divine Embryos emerged from the halo divine tool, three intense storms of energy hovering above Wang Chong, their auras resonating with Wang Chong.
At this moment, the three Divine Embryos were fully healed and even stronger than before. Divine Embryo 1 had reached the Grotto Heaven realm, and the other two were only a sliver away.
“Heaven, you think you have control over everything, but did you ask me?”
Before Heaven could attack, Wang Chong charged out with his three Divine Embryos.
At almost the same time, boom! A Halo of Spacetime rippled out from Li Xuantu’s feet, and without the slightest hesitation, Li Xuantu joined Wang Chong in the offensive.
Now that Wang Chong was no longer hiding his strength, even Luo Supreme was shaken.
While Luo Supreme had some understanding of this Child of Destruction and even knew that he had killed Genesis Supreme, deep down, Luo Supreme did not consider Wang Chong as being on his level.
But the strength that Wang Chong displayed was entirely equal to his, and left him alarmed and stunned.

“An excellent chance!”
Luo Supreme shot forward, controlling Alpha Supreme’s body as well. These two moved like bolts of lightning and attacked Heaven from another angle.
“Chaos Storm!”
“Beginning of Light and Shadow!”
Kacrack!
With two massive booms and a howl of wind, a greenish-black storm blotted out the sky and swept toward Heaven with destructive force.
The storm annihilated everything in its path, even leaving visible black scars in the fabric of space.
Chaos Storm!
This was Luo Supreme’s self-created supreme technique!
Numerous epochs ago, Luo Supreme had ventured into the vast universe with Heaven and seen for himself a dimension being obliterated, everything returning back to primordial chaos.
That sight had left an extremely deep impression on Luo Supreme, and from this experience, Luo Supreme had developed ‘Chaos Storm’.
Beneath the greenish-black storm, a nebula of light and shadow formed a spiraling vortex and swept out.
Beginning of Light and Shadow!
This was Alpha Supreme’s ultimate technique!
When Li Taiyi killed Alpha Supreme, the Stellar Energy within his body still remained, and this Beginning of Light and Shadow was one of the supreme techniques left within.
Both techniques were the ultimate techniques of Supremes, containing the foundational energy of the universe and immense destructive might.
These ultimate techniques consumed vast amounts of Stellar Energy, but Luo Supreme was going all-out to defeat Heaven and did not care for the cost.
He had a keen understanding of Heaven’s style. If they didn’t defeat him, they would all die here.
And as a rebel in Heaven’s eyes, he was one of the first people Heaven would kill.
Wang Chong launched his own attack in coordination with Luo Supreme.
“Ice-Sealed World!”
Wang Chong unleashed the power of Divine Embryo 3, and with a great boom, endless cold energy swept over the world, the intense chill even freezing the fabric of space.
Wang Chong’s Divine Embryo 3 was the strongest ‘Ice Element expert’ in the entire continent, and its Ice-Sealed World ability would even be able to affect someone of Heaven’s level.
Buzz!
Wherever the cold energy went, the world was rendered silver and white. Even the thunderclouds that Heaven had created were frozen solid.
“God-Executing Sword!”
At the same time, a golden light more brilliant than the sun filled the world as Wang Chong summoned the power of the halo divine tool.
Bang!
Three palms were placed on Wang Chong’s shoulders. Li Xuantu, Divine Embryo 1, and Divine Embryo 2 sent their Stellar Energy surging into Wang Chong’s body.
With a great rumble, an upgraded version of the Sword of God one thousand feet long cleaved through space as it sliced at Heaven.
This power contained the combined might of Wang Chong, Li Xuantu, Divine Embryo 1, and Divine Embryo 2, and it was even more powerful than the attack Wang Chong had unleashed in the capital.
Better to seize the opportunity than wait for a lucky day!
Wang Chong had been planning to go to the capital to challenge Heaven, but this meeting had occurred ahead of schedule.
Wang Chong and Luo Supreme were legendary figures, and they each had clones. Now, they had combined forces to attack Heaven.
The terrifying power of the attack made the world pale, and even Heaven was shaken by the force of this offensive.
“Very good! Such strength! It seems that We underestimated you!” Heaven boomed, unflustered despite his surprise.
“These two bastards are working together to attack Heaven!”
Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme were also alarmed.
Since ancient times, only a few who knew of Heaven’s true strength dared to attack him. Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme had never dared to harbor such thoughts. But these two had not only attacked, they were intent on killing. Such audacity was so great that it could encompass the heavens.
It was evident now that both Luo Supreme and Wang Chong had been hiding many trump cards. If Essence Supreme hadn’t been one move ahead and brought Heaven’s Pantheon Pearl, this offensive against Luo Supreme would have resulted in a crushing defeat, all of them dying to Luo Supreme and Wang Chong.
“These two bastards!”
“We can’t let them take advantage of Heaven! Let’s work together to kill them.”
The two of them were stunned and furious. A moment later, the two Supremes unleashed all their Stellar Energy, the immense, mountain-toppling power of the Grotto Heaven realm erupting from their bodies.
“There’s no need. We are enough to deal with them.” Heaven’s calm voice rang out in their minds. “In addition, lend me your Stellar Energy!”
Boom!
Before Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme could react, Heaven reached out and placed his hands on their shoulders.
A moment later, Heaven’s body seemed to become like a black hole, the Stellar Energies within the bodies of the two Supremes surging into it.
Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme calmly stood there, not resisting in the slightest, appearing pleased to be of assistance.
Heaven’s cultivation and abilities far surpassed those of Wang Chong and Luo Supreme. However, this was a ritual tool avatar, not his actual body. Even with a ritual tool as powerful as the Pantheon Pearl, he was still lacking in Stellar Energy to deal with Wang Chong, Luo Supreme, and their various clones.
The Stellar Energy in the bodies of Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme was the best battery.
However, that Wang Chong and Luo Supreme had forced the supreme Heaven to take energy from Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme was already high praise.
Bang!
As the Stellar Energy entered his body, Heaven exploded with light countless times brighter than the sun. A moment later, Heaven raised his hand and broke free of Wang Chong’s Ice-Sealed World, then lightning descended from the skies and blanketed the entire dimension.
Buzz!
The downpour of lightning caused the dimension to tremble, and in the minds of Wang Chong and Luo Supreme, this entire world had seemingly stopped, even the flow of time.
The astonishing attacks unleashed by Wang Chong and Luo Supreme had also been frozen in the air.
Wang Chong
and Luo Supreme paled.
Bang!
Before they could react, the lightning crashed down, and with one strike, Luo Supreme’s ‘Chaos Storm’, the attack he had derived from his experience countless epochs ago, was blasted into dust.
“Impossible!”
Luo Supreme trembled, his face going even whiter.
Chaos Storm was his strongest attack, and though Luo Supreme was not so arrogant as to believe that this attack could overcome Heaven’s original body, he had never imagined that it would be so easily broken.
But there was no time for Luo Supreme to think…
Bang!
Beneath the greenish-black ‘Chaos Storm’, the nebula vortex of Alpha Supreme, the ‘Beginning of Light and Shadow’, exploded under the barrage of countless bolts of lightning.
Luo Supreme and Alpha Supreme were both peak Grotto Heaven realm experts, and their attacks were capable of annihilating dimensions. But their attacks were fragile as paper before Heaven.
Plush! Plush!
Luo Supreme and Alpha Supreme vomited blood, their bodies shuddering.
The backlash from having their attacks broken by Heaven had struck their bodies.
And Heaven’s attack was not done. After disposing of Luo Supreme and Alpha Supreme, that unstoppable lightning turned on Wang Chong with frightening speed.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
There was an azure flash of lightning, followed by three thunderous explosions. Wang Chong’s upgraded Sword of God, the ‘God-Executing Sword’, was battered by thick bolts of azure lightning, the thousand-foot-long sword swiftly covered in cracks.
In less time than it took to blink, the God-Executing Sword was obliterated.
Soon after that, Divine Embryo 1’s Supreme Buddha was also struck by the celestial lightning, the numerous Buddhas of various sizes instantly burned away.
Divine Embryo 2, Divine Embryo 3, and Li Xuantu were next, all of their attacks crushed into dust.
No one had expected their combined strength to still be so lacking.
“How could this be!?”
In the face of this lightning barrage, even Wang Chong couldn’t help but scowl.
Though Heaven had absorbed almost all the energy available to Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme, and was even using the energy within Luo Supreme’s dimension, this level of ability was still a little too absurd.
