But now… what did Heaven matter?
Even if he had produced the Pantheon Pearl, he could still be killed.
“Hahaha, Heaven, have you ever heard of the term ‘the executing heavens’? Today, I will be the one executing Heaven!”
Luo Supreme suddenly laughed and then gathered up his Grotto Heaven Stellar Energy. Countless streams of chaos energy battered the King of Gods, particularly Essence Supreme’s body in its chest.
Buzz!
The King of Gods created by the Pantheon Pearl remained imposing and awesome, but its massive body trembled, the shuddering intensifying. Its luster also began to dim, and even the universal energy it was gathering from Luo Supreme’s dimension was showing signs of dispersing.
This situation had never happened before!
Wang Chong’s plan was working.
“It really works!”
While battling with Heaven, Wang Chong could sense that Heaven was growing anxious.
The pressure on Essence Supreme’s body increased as time went on, and it was growing weaker and weaker, causing Heaven’s power to grow increasingly unstable. This instability was even affecting his ability to fight.
In the battle, it was obvious that Heaven was making many mistakes in how he controlled energy.
This wasn’t because Heaven was incapable, but because the basis of his avatar, Essence Supreme’s body, was impeding him.
Even so, Heaven’s terrifying strength remained a major threat.
“A pack of rats!”
Heaven’s furious bellow resounded through the sky as a wave of Stellar Energy exploded from his dantian. In a flash, a tide of frenzied energy swept toward Wang Chong.
Clangclangclang!
Wang Chong used spacetime energy to create numerous Halos of Spacetime, which allowed Wang Chong to constantly change positions.
Under Heaven’s seal, the use of Grotto Heaven realm energy in this dimension was greatly restricted, but it was still possible to use in a small range.
In addition, even though he could use Grotto Heaven abilities, Wang Chong did not completely rely on spacetime energy. Instead, he used various movement techniques to constantly maneuver around a small range, making him difficult to pin down and allowing him to dodge Heaven’s attacks again and again.
Boomboomboom!
Torrents of energy brushed past his body, but Wang Chong continued to counterattack while dodging. It was a precarious balancing act, with the smallest mistake leading to death or severe injury, the loss of any ability to fight back against Heaven.
Even so, Wang Chong had no intention of retreating. On the contrary, he seized the initiative in this battle, as if Heaven was the weaker party.
“Celestial Fortress!”
Wang Chong took out the halo divine tool, transforming the dazzling golden disk into a wall. Boom! It just barely managed to stop one of Heaven’s punches.
Wang Chong’s halo divine tool shuddered, but compared to before, Heaven was much weaker.
“God-Executing Sword!”
As he blocked Heaven’s attack, Wang Chong turned the halo divine tool into a golden sword that cleaved through space as it slashed at Heaven.
Buzz!
At the key moment, Wang Chong summoned a Halo of Spacetime, avoiding Heaven’s defenses and attacks to appear in front of the god king’s chest.
Bang!
The sword exploded with light. Wang Chong mustered his own Grotto Heaven Stellar Energy and the universal energy of Luo Supreme’s dimension, even the divine lightning within the Xuanyuan Sword, and poured it all into this attack.
This attack’s power was so immense that it far surpassed the strongest attack Wang Chong was normally capable of in his peak state.
Crack!
With a sharp crack, the destructive blow exploded on Heaven’s chest, the fusion of so many energies creating a qualitative transformation. The sword managed to pierce through Heaven’s defenses and stab into the depths of the six-armed god king’s body.
“Ah!”
A scream of pain came from within—not Heaven’s voice, but that of the long-disappeared Essence Supreme. And at the point where Wang Chong’s sword had plunged into the body, golden blood began to seep out.
If one could see into the body of the six-armed god king, they would discover that Wang Chong’s sword had pierced through a layer of Heaven’s steely Stellar Energy and stabbed into Essence Supreme’s curled-up body.
The sword had pierced into his chest, and it was from here that the golden blood seeped out.
In normal circumstances, Heaven’s consciousness would be the active one, but the immense damage done to Essence Supreme’s physical body had been enough to forcefully awaken Essence Supreme’s slumbering mind.
Within the six-armed god king, Essence Supreme said nothing, but his open eyes were brimming with shock.
“Impossible!”
Essence Supreme was stupefied.
In this operation, Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme had both believed that the Supreme Essence Compass and Heaven’s essence blood were the trump cards to deal with Luo Supreme, but Essence Supreme had known the entirety of the plan.
He had never before imagined that when Heaven had complete control over the situation and had his most powerful avatar with the Pantheon Pearl, Wang Chong would still be able to hurt Heaven, even heavily wound Essence Supreme’s body which had been protected in the depths of the god king’s body.
Essence Supreme was truly and utterly stunned.
“Haha, kid, you really didn’t disappoint me! Heaven, it’s no wonder you’re so wary of him, even using that plan in the capital. It seems that he really is that person that is said to be the person you fear the most!”
Luo Supreme’s eyes brightened, and he heartily laughed as he joined Wang Chong in rushing at Heaven.
He suddenly understood why Heaven’s actions in the capital were so different from how he had acted in previous Purification plans.
Luo Supreme could even sense that Heaven was growing anxious, which had never happened with him before.
When he saw this twenty-some-year-old human youth wounding Heaven, Luo Supreme had understood.
Firmament Supreme’s death, Genesis Supreme’s death, the failure of the Purification plan, Heaven’s emergence—these seemingly unrelated events were all connected.
“Kid, didn’t you want to ask me about what was happening in the capital? Let me tell you a secret, a secret that Heaven has done his utmost to conceal, that few people even in the Celestial God Organization know about. Moreover, this secret is also connected to the now-deceased Origin Immortal Lord…”
Luo Supreme crazily laughed, his voice resounding through the world.
“What?”
Wang Chong was flabbergasted by Luo Supreme’s words. As he dodged to the side and barely avoided a bolt of lightning from Heaven, he glanced at Luo Supreme.
The Origin Immortal Lord!
Wang Chong truly had come for the two Doomsday Insignias and information on what was happening in the capital. The Sindhu High Priest had said that Luo Supreme, while extremely inconspicuous, had spent the longest time with Heaven. There was a high possibility that he knew the whole story.
But Wang Chong had not expected to hear the name of the Origin Immortal Lord.
He had the advantage of having been reborn, but his encounter with the Origin Immortal Lord on his trip to the northwest had also been an enormous boon to him.

Chapter 2327: Heaven Flees!

The Origin Immortal Lord was proficient in divination, and all of his prophecies so far had been verified. He had predicted both the third lunar eclipse and the incident in the capital, and he had even left the Nightmare Beast and the Xuanyuan Sword for him.
The Origin Immortal Lord had been dead for a long time, and Wang Chong had not imagined that Luo Supreme would speak
his name.
But before Wang Chong could think this over, a thunderous roar of fury came from above.
“You’re seeking death!”
Luo Supreme’s words had seemingly provoked Heaven. In a flash, lightning and thunder exploded, and the lightning and energy in this dimension swept toward Luo Supreme. Heaven had seemingly even forgotten about the nearby Wang Chong.
It seemed that Luo Supreme’s secret was extremely important to Heaven, and he could not allow him to speak it.
“Careful!”
Heaven’s attack had taken Wang Chong completely by surprise.
Bang!
Wang Chong lunged forward, joining his clones in attacking the King of Gods.
But it appeared that Heaven couldn’t care about such things. Luo Supreme’s secret was so important that he seemed determined to shut Luo Supreme’s mouth.
The spacetime laws of the world fiercely shuddered, immense energy instantly engulfing Wang Chong.
“Ah!”
A moment later, two screams could be heard. One was from Luo Supreme, and the other was from Essence Supreme within Heaven’s body.
Struck by Heaven’s frightening energy, Luo Supreme hurtled from the skies like a comet and smashed into the ground.
On the other side, at almost the same moment that Heaven attacked Luo Supreme, Wang Chong and his clones had attacked the King of Gods, their weapons penetrating its shell and stabbing into Essence Supreme’s physical body.
But while Wang Chong moved quickly, someone else moved even more quickly. Plush! A long black shuttle pierced through the god king’s defenses and penetrated through Essence Supreme’s skull. That destructive power instantly obliterated Essence Supreme’s head.
Alpha Supreme?!
Wang Chong was flabbergasted to see this additional figure appear at his side.
The one who had dealt Heaven the fatal blow was none other than the heavily injured Alpha Supreme.
No, it could no longer be called Alpha Supreme.
This was because the real Alpha Supreme had died decades ago. Only one person controlled this body: Luo Supreme.
Wang Chong suddenly understood.
“Nothing will end here! You traitorous rebels! One day, We will exterminate all of you!
“Wang Chong, you can’t run! We will wait for you in the capital!” Heaven’s voice rang out.
The burden on Essence Supreme’s body was immense, and after Wang Chong’s several strikes and Alpha Supreme’s blow to the head, it was finally unable to maintain the King of Gods state. The enormous body began to dissipate, and by the time Heaven was done speaking, the six-armed god king had completely collapsed into wisps of Stellar Energy.
Swish!
Amidst this fog of Stellar Energy, there was a pulse of spacetime energy, and a large pearl jumped out. Wrapping up Essence Supreme’s consciousness and Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme, it vanished into boundless space.
With Heaven’s cultivation, if he wanted to leave, Wang Chong had no hope of stopping him.
“Let him be!” A voice came from the ground, and in a flash of light, Luo Supreme shot back up from the ground and slowly walked toward Wang Chong.
He waved his palm, releasing from a ritual tool the divine warriors and his two sons, whom he had hidden away when the battle began.
“The two of us have no ability to fight against him in our current state. If we go after him, we only increase the number of variables and increase the number of problems on our hands. Moreover, this is only his avatar. If we don’t find a way to defeat his original body, we will still find it difficult to avoid death!”
He had followed Heaven for so many years that he was very clear on his way of doing things. Heaven was someone who would kill anyone who betrayed him.
“Mm.”
Wang Chong gave a slight nod, but a moment later, as his eyes passed over Luo Supreme, his heart thumped.
“Your body!”
Luo Supreme’s condition was extremely bad, the injury dealt to him by Heaven’s attack far more serious than imagined. The injuries to his body were secondary, as at the Grotto Heaven realm, physical injuries were very easy to heal. What was most serious was that Luo Supreme’s soul was like a guttering candle, about to be extinguished at any moment.
Moreover, Wang Chong could sense an aura of decay and death from Luo Supreme.
This was not an aura that one should be sensing on a Grotto Heaven realm expert.
In truth, Luo Supreme’s situation was extremely similar to the condition Essence Supreme had been in.
“Merely some external injuries!”
Luo Supreme faintly smiled. He knew that Wang Chong could see his condition, but he was confident and relaxed, seemingly not concerned.
“Heaven is truly very powerful, and this body of mine can’t last for very long. But after spending so long in the Celestial God Organization, I managed to learn the essence of Essence Supreme’s reincarnation art. Although I don’t have a means of directly building a Grotto Heaven realm body like Essence Supreme, it is completely possible for me to transfer my soul to the body of a true Grotto Heaven realm expert.”
Luo Supreme shot a glance at the expressionless body of Alpha Supreme.
Wang Chong was taken aback at first, and as he looked back at Luo Supreme, he was rendered speechless.
Old ginger was hotter than new!
He had wondered why Luo Supreme had provoked Heaven, but he now understood.
Old monsters like Luo Supreme who had lived for thousands of years truly weren’t easy to deal with.
Luo Supreme had planned everything out. He had used his physical body to draw Heaven’s attention and expose his weakness, after which he would transfer his soul to Alpha Supreme, which served as his backup body.
This operation was more frightening than it seemed, and he had long ago calculated everything out.
“I was overthinking things.
“Right, Senior mentioned some great secret. What is it?”
Wang Chong knew that something that could make Heaven lose control of himself could not be so simple.
His surroundings fell silent, and Luo Supreme slightly frowned. He glanced at the divine warriors and waved his hand.
“Everyone, withdraw!”
“Yes!”
The divine warriors swiftly withdrew, as did Luo Supreme’s two sons.
Soon, Luo Supreme turned his gaze to Li Xuantu, his meaning obvious.
“No need!”
Wang Chong frowned and instinctively refused.
He was the one who had invited Li Xuantu, and since they were allies, they needed to trust each other. At the very least, he didn’t feel it necessary to keep this matter a secret from him.
But before Wang Chong could finish speaking, Crown Prince Li Xuantu said, “You two talk. I am going to treat my injuries.” He left.
Every person had their secrets. Since Luo Supreme wanted him to leave, this matter clearly only had to do with Wang Chong and was not meant for too many outsiders to know.
Buzz!
Once Li Xuantu was gone, Luo Supreme snapped his fingers, and a transparent, glass-like dome covered the two.
“We can talk now!” Luo Supreme casually said.
“I also don’t know if what I’m telling you is real or fake, but from Heaven’s reaction, I would lean more toward truth.”
Luo Supreme got straight to the point, divulging what he knew.
“You should know that the Origin Immortal Lord was a master of divination.”
“Mm.”
Wang Chong nodded.
Through divination, one could see the future, and the Origin Immortal Lord had mastered this art.
He had even been able to predict when Wang Chong would enter the Origin Immortal Palace in the northwest. Wang Chong held deep respect for him.
“Before the internal problems in the Celestial God Organization, he had already predicted everything. You must understand that for people like us, destiny is a joke
. The Origin Immortal Lord’s prophecy at the time was laughed at by everyone, but later on, when everything aligned with his predictions, I became sure that he possessed an ability that we did not.
“After the troubles, I secretly went to find him. He replied with a single sentence: ‘Leave at once or lose your head.’”
“Ah?”
Wang Chong was taken aback by these words. The Sindhu High Priest’s words had given him the impression that Luo Supreme was an ambitious fellow who wanted to set up his own faction, causing him to rebel from the Celestial God Organization. But it appeared from Luo Supreme’s words that there was another story behind this.
“But why would Heaven want to kill you?”
The only person Wang Chong could think of in the Celestial God Organization that could kill Luo Supreme was Heaven.
“Heh, perhaps it was because I was with him for too long and knew too much!”
Luo Supreme’s eyes lost focus as he thought back to the past.
But a moment later, Luo Supreme came back to his senses.
“The Origin Immortal Lord was a master of divination, but what you might not know is that his divination arts were passed down from another person who had lived countless epochs ago. The Origin Immortal Lord merely inherited his teachings, his mission, and his will.
“The Origin Immortal Lord himself said that many of the things he had predicted were not actually predicted by him, but by that person from countless epochs ago,” Luo Supreme sternly said.
“Ah!”
Wang Chong’s heart trembled in shock.
“Not only that, after I rebelled, I went to see the Origin Immortal Lord. He said that this man was probably the person that Heaven feared the most, even more than that Sage Emperor of yours. In addition, this matter is closely connected to what he is doing in the capital,” Luo Supreme said.

Luo Supreme’s final words made Wang Chong’s expression become unprecedentedly serious.
