“Impossible! Wasn’t Alpha Supreme killed by Li Taiyi? How could he appear here?!”
“Alpha Supreme! Such audacity! You dare to deceive Heaven! Did you fake your death all those years ago?”
Blood trickled from the corners of the lips of Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme. Their internal organs had been heavily injured, but the two of them didn’t care. They stared angrily at the greenish-black figure, seemingly overcome with shock.
Buzz!
Their cries of alarm made Wang Chong’s eyes fly open in shock.
Alpha Supreme?
Li Taiyi!
Wang Chong was familiar with both these names.
Ten-some years ago, before that incident when the Sage Emperor attempted to reach the Divine Martial realm, he was even stronger than in Wang Chong’s lifetime. It was only because of Heaven’s interference that the attempt failed and the backlash weakened the Sage Emperor.
But even when weakened, the Son of Heaven’s Sword that the Sage Emperor had left to him was still enough to easily kill Genesis Supreme.
At his prime, the Sage Emperor had undoubtedly been much stronger.
That ‘Alpha Supreme’ had died at the Sage Emperor’s hands.
This matter was publicly known, so Wang Chong hadn’t paid much attention to it. But judging by the reactions of Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme, this person by Luo Supreme’s side was the deceased Alpha Supreme? How could that be?
Could it be…
Wang Chong had all sorts of ideas. Given how the Celestial God Organization operated, there could be some conspiracy going on.
But it took a few moments for Wang Chong to understand.
“This can’t be!”
Wang Chong didn’t know Alpha Supreme, but he understood the Sage Emperor.
Imposing and forthright!
This was the Sage Emperor’s style. While he was pragmatic, he would never lose his upright nature.
When the Sage Emperor was still brimming with confidence and energy, he would have never ‘colluded’ with the Celestial God Organization.
If the one who had killed Alpha Supreme was the Sage Emperor, then there was no question about it.
Wang Chong would always trust in this judgment.
Buzz!
With a thought, Wang Chong used ‘True World’, and the world before him transformed. When he turned his gaze on Alpha Supreme, he trembled in shock.
He saw something unusual, and he vaguely understood what was going on.
He was far from the only one to notice something fishy!
While Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme were still overcome with rage and shock, Essence Supreme was cold and unperturbed.
“Luo Supreme, we all judged you incorrectly! To think that you had such tricks!” Essence Supreme said.
“When Alpha Supreme received orders to enter the capital, then was discovered by Li Taiyi and slain with one strike, all of us were stunned. But afterward, Alpha Supreme’s body disappeared. I was once ordered by Heaven to investigate this matter, but because the capital was too dangerous and overseen by Li Taiyi, we believed that Li Taiyi had taken it.
“To think that you took it and refined it as a clone!”
Everyone was alarmed, and even Luo Supreme’s two half-step Grotto Heaven realm sons were stunned. It was clear that they had not been informed of this.
Only Wang Chong was unperturbed.
The greenish-black figure next to Luo Supreme was just a shell and did not possess its own soul. This was what Wang Chong had seen through the True World ability.
“Starting one thousand years ago, you made yourself scarce, distancing yourself from both the mortal world and the Celestial God Organization. But in reality, you were watching to see how things developed. Because you were inconspicuous, Heaven paid no attention to you, as did Li Taiyi. However, you were scheming this whole time! Such profound and wise methods!” Essence Supreme coldly said, his voice filled with derision.
The inconspicuous Luo Supreme, the declining Turkic shaman religion… Everyone had been playthings for Luo Supreme this entire time.
But what drew Essence Supreme’s attention was only one thing. Amongst the twelve Supremes, Alpha Supreme was undoubtedly in the top three. His physical body had been through countless epochs and had been refined countless times, nourished in the Stellar Energy of the Grotto Heaven realm. It was definitely one of the strongest physical bodies. This could be seen by how, even after taking the Son of Heaven’s Sword from Li Taiyi, the physical body had managed to remain intact.
From this angle, Alpha Supreme’s physical body wasn’t just a little stronger than Essence Supreme’s silver-eyed youth. In fact, the difference was nigh impossible to measure.
Now that Luo Supreme had refined Alpha Supreme’s body for his own, one could only imagine his level of strength.
But after so many years, he had not revealed this fact to anyone, even his sons. This was proof of his shrewdness.
Essence Supreme suddenly somewhat understood why Luo Supreme had been so fearless, so calm and unhurried despite facing the three of them.
Luo Supreme suddenly began to speak, his voice thunderously booming through the dimension. “Essence Supreme, I’ve never made myself scarce as you claim, nor did I ever say that I was weak. You said all of these things, and these were all your judgments!”
He placed his hands behind his back and slowly walked forward.
At this moment, Luo Supreme had a domineering gaze and aura, so intimidating that it was impossible to look directly at him. An immense pressure radiated from his body.
Buzz!
He made a gesture with his hand, upon which that seal on Alpha Supreme’s body was released. An energy similar to Luo Supreme’s erupted from this body.
For tens of thousands of feet around, space distorted and grew blurry.
At this moment, Luo Supreme dropped all pretenses, not even bringing up his cooperation with Wang Chong, for there was no longer any reason to cooperate.
The Decalight Universal Dampening Formation was in motion and he had already sealed off the dimension. No one would be able to get out of here easily.
Moreover, Essence Supreme’s Heaven-Earth Life Refining Art was quickly about to reach its end. In a little less than half an hour, his physical body would turn to dust, and Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme were no match for him.
“Your greatest mistake was believing that with a few drops of Heaven’s essence blood, the three of you could deal with me!”
Luo Supreme looked down at the other three, his eyes cold and emotionless. At his words, Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme unconsciously stepped back, fear in their hearts.
In Luo Supreme’s voice, they sensed killing intent.
Chapter 2318 - The Scroll Unrolled! The Dagger Revealed!
Chapter 2318: The Scroll Unrolled! The Dagger Revealed!
Now that Luo Supreme had revealed his clone, Alpha Supreme, he clearly had no intention of letting anyone leave.
If this were against anyone else, things might not have been so bad, but Luo Supreme knew the secrets of the Celestial God Organization like the back of his hand. Their souls were not guaranteed to be able to smoothly leave and reincarnate.
Luo Supreme was too frightening!
They had known Luo Supreme for numerous epochs, but at this moment, Grand and Radiance Supreme realized that they had never truly known Luo Supreme.
He was far too patient!
It was impossible to guess at his true intentions!
He had been able to refine Alpha Supreme as a clone, so there was even a chance that he was preparing to refine their bodies as well.
It was incredibly easy for Grotto Heaven realm experts to return to their current levels of power!
And now that they thought about it, Alpha Supreme’s death at the hands of Li Taiyi had been rather suspicious. There was no guarantee that Luo Supreme hadn’t meddled in the background for the sake of gaining Alpha Supreme’s body.
This man was too dangerous!
Luo Supreme looked at the three other Supremes and loudly declared, “Essence Supreme, you brought this all on yourself. Since you came to find me, you might as well stay forever!”
Boom! The black-robed Alpha Supreme exploded with Stellar Energy, a beam of energy rocketing into the air. At the same time, an almost tangible mental energy divided into three strands and locked onto Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, and Radiance Supreme.
Vicious killing intent roiled out.
“I’ll use your deaths as my reply to Heaven!” Luo Supreme’s icy voice resounded through the heavens.
Rumble! Luo Supreme abruptly disappeared.
Winds howled and the entire world grew hazy, the earth shuddering as if the end of days had come. At this moment, Luo Supreme and Alpha Supreme simultaneously attacked, their massive figures standing in space, their immense Stellar Energy sweeping toward Essence Supreme’s group.
The scroll unrolled!
The dagger revealed!
After several thousand years, he had made his base watertight and secretly refined his trump card, ‘Alpha Supreme’. He even had his Decalight Universal Dampening Formation within his dimension.
He had now revealed all his trump cards, so he could not allow Essence Supreme’s group to return alive.
No matter what, the three of them had to die.
Everyone who knew his secrets had to die!
He could not permit any leak in information, much less allow Heaven to know about everything here and prepare for it.
Boom!
With a crack of thunder, two different kinds of energy, one resplendent gold and the other inky black, transformed into two giant hands that slammed down at Essence Supreme’s group.
In front of this immense power, Essence Supreme’s group seemed dim in comparison. Though they were also Grotto Heaven realm experts, they looked up with nervous looks on their faces.
Buzz!
In a flash, barrier after barrier infused with spacetime ripples appeared around the three.
Even that golden boat erupted with golden light that formed into a domain covering the three.
But compared to the energies of Luo Supreme and Alpha Supreme, this was like a firefly trying to compete against the moon.
As Wang Chong watched from a distance, his heart shivered.
When Luo Supreme took action, he had clearly sensed Luo Supreme glance in his direction. Although it had been an extremely brief glance, so quick as to be taken as a mistake, Wang Chong could sense danger and killing intent.
Essence Supreme was not unrivaled!
None of the twelve Supremes was an ordinary individual!
And this was Luo Supreme, who had fooled Heaven and taken away Alpha Supreme’s physical body to refine into his clone, even hiding this fact from his two sons who had followed him for thousands of years. Luo Supreme was not some softhearted soul.
Though he had spoken about allying with Wang Chong, in truth, if needed, he would move against him without hesitation.
“Is it time to strike?” Li Xuantu suddenly said, his body tensing, his Stellar Energy rumbling. A Halo of Spacetime appeared beneath his feet as he prepared to attack.
Just like Wang Chong, he had also sensed Luo Supreme’s killing intent.
Wang Chong said nothing, countless thoughts running through his black eyes.
Whether it was Luo Supreme or Essence Supreme, none of them was easy to deal with. If Luo Supreme killed Essence Supreme, Wang Chong would be next. But it would be the same if Essence Supreme managed to kill Luo Supreme.
Their situation was extremely bizarre and extremely dangerous!
“Wait a little longer!” Wang Chong said, his eyes flashing.
His fists were clenched, his body tensed like a taut bowstring, also prepared to strike. If Luo Supreme moved against them, Wang Chong wouldn’t just wait for death. But until the final moment, Wang Chong did not want to make his decision.
He sensed that this journey to seek out Luo Supreme was far from over.
Boom!
The apex attack of Luo Supreme and Alpha Supreme slammed into the attack from Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, and Radiance Supreme, instantly obliterating it.
Not only that, even the domain created by the golden boat crumbled away, the backlash blasting the golden boat into bits.
When righteousness grew by one foot, evil would rise by ten feet!
It appeared that Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, and Radiance Supreme were on the verge of being slain at Luo Supreme’s hands, and even the distant Wang Chong was prepared to take action. But at this moment, there was a completely unexpected twist.
“Luo Supreme, We truly underestimated you!” A majestic and dignified voice, domineering as the sovereign of the heavens, resounded through the dimension.
Awooo!
The immense pressure caused those three-eyed wolves that Luo Supreme had created to howl, fear in their eyes. They prostrated on the ground, their bodies trembling and shivering.
Buzz!
Just when Essence Supreme’s group was about to be swallowed up by that greenish-black Stellar Energy, a blinding point of light appeared, as bright as the sun. Time seemed to stop as the attacks of Luo Supreme and Alpha Supreme froze in the air several feet away from Essence Supreme.
In a flash, this Stellar Energy disappeared as if it had never existed.
Wang Chong and Li Xuantu looked over and saw that Essence Supreme had thrust out a finger. It was this finger that had stopped the attacks of Luo Supreme and Alpha Supreme, seemingly possessing some unfathomable power.
And at this moment, Essence Supreme began to exude a completely different kind of energy, the aura of someone who was the sole ruler and master of the world.
Those silver eyes became scornful and domineering, so deep that they seemed to stare into tens of thousands of dimensions.
Essence Supreme was still Essence Supreme, but it seemed like the person inside had completely changed. The power radiating from the body was also many times stronger than before.
Buzz!
Wang Chong’s and Li Xuantu’s eyes flew open, an intense sense of danger in their minds. Without a word, they beat a rapid retreat.
“Not good!”
At that moment, the two of them had sensed a familiar energy from Essence Supreme.
Heaven!
At almost the same time, Luo Supreme, who had seemingly had the firm upper hand, darted backward, crying out in alarm, “Impossible!!!”
Bang!
All of the divine warriors and Luo Supreme’s two sons fell back, shock on their faces.
They had heard Luo Supreme mention the name of ‘Heaven’ long ago. This was the greatest enemy of their ‘god’, the greatest ‘devil’ of the universe. He was the existence that they feared the most.
Luo Supreme said nothing, only stared at ‘Essence Supreme’. At this moment, his shock far surpassed that of anyone else!
Heaven!
He had never imagined that he would sense that familiar energy in these circumstances.
He had followed Heaven for countless epochs and was extremely familiar with his energy. He would not mistake it for anyone else’s.
The energy radiating from Essence Supreme was identical to Heaven’s.
This was what Luo Supreme had feared the most for several thousand years and tried his utmost to avoid.
But how?
In order to deal with Heaven, he had placed an enormous soul-sealing formation at the entrance to this dimension.
This was a powerful formation that was from a long-lost civilization from countless epochs ago. That seal had originated from even before Heaven’s time. Several thousand years ago, he had gone through incredible effort to find this formation and successfully lay it down.
In normal circumstances, any incomplete mind or avatar, including Heaven’s avatar, would be incapable of penetrating through the formation’s law energy and entering the dimension.
This was why Luo Supreme could be so unpanicked and unhurried, remaining composed even when three Supremes worked against him.
The only person he feared was Heaven.
“Luo Supreme, you have greatly disappointed Us!”
Essence Supreme raised his head, but the majestic voice coming from his throat was Heaven’s.
“After so many years, you do not kneel before Us?”
“Impossible! Simply impossible!” Luo Supreme blurted out, all of his composure lost.
Wang Chong was also tense, for he now understood everything. Essence Supreme had been so confident in his success not because of the powerful ritual tool Heaven had given him, or because he had the advantage in numbers.
His true trump card was Heaven!
It appeared that Essence Supreme had used his own body as a vessel, and then he used some secret art to avoid the effects of Luo Supreme’s formation.
Using the Heaven-Earth Life Refining Art to accelerate his death now seemed like merely a method to release Heaven.
Chapter 2319 - The Pantheon Pearl!
Chapter 2319: The Pantheon Pearl!
A moment later, bzzz! A bolt of lightning flashed, and then ‘Heaven’ suddenly turned his head, his vicious gaze turning to Wang Chong.
“Very good! Child of Destruction, even you are here! We have been saved a lot of trouble and can simply take care of all of you at once!”
Bang!
Heaven’s expression was cold and aloof as he stepped forward. With this single step, an immense energy engulfed the dimension.
Heaven slightly waved his palm, and with a crackle, the laws of the dimension shuddered. The Decalight Universal Dampening Formation that Luo Supreme had set down seemed to suffer some immense shock, and the formations began to rapidly collapse.
A moment later, the spacetime restrictions that Luo Supreme had placed on the group disappeared.
The eyes of Wang Chong, Li Xuantu, and Luo Supreme flew open.
The formation Luo Supreme had laid down was extremely powerful, but Heaven had destroyed it in a few short moments. This power made one’s blood run cold.
Moreover, this barely took any of Heaven’s strength.
“Wonderful!”
