Chapter 2305 - Gathering the Divine Embryos!
Wang Chong’s heart trembled as an unprecedented pain sliced and tore at it.
His mother was just an ordinary woman without the strength to truss a chicken, but even though Heaven had wiped out all the memories regarding him and even modified her soul, she still remembered Wang Chong.
In his last life, he had failed to protect her, and now that he had been reborn, he had not imagined that Heaven would do something to her.
Wang Chong walked over and spoke in an incomparably gentle voice. “Mother, be at ease. I’ll save you no matter what!”
Heaven, no matter what, I’ll make you pay! Wang Chong’s eyes flashed with a vicious light, but those words remained unspoken.
He would make anyone who dared to hurt his intimates pay, even if that person was Heaven.
“Little Nightmare, is there any way to help them?” Wang Chong suddenly asked.
Little Nightmare remained quiet for some time before finally speaking.
“Their condition isn’t good. Very little time has passed since we fled, but they’ve already fallen unconscious. Moreover, I can sense that their souls are continuing to weaken.
“Unless we find a way to restore their souls, in the end, they will still… All I can do is slow the decline of their souls and delay, but that’s not a real solution!” Little Nightmare said.
As a member of the powerful Nightmare Beast species, it had talents and abilities that humans could never imagine. For example, it could absorb the soul energy of humans, take control of their minds, or even alter their memories.
Little Nightmare also had abilities to treat and heal the souls of humans.
Buzz!
A weak pulse of soul energy came from Little Nightmare and into the bodies of the Wang Family Residence members.
These points of energy were like dim points of starlight, but Wang Chong could tell that after Little Nightmare took action, the lives of the several hundred people of the residence stabilized. Though they had not broken free of that state, their condition had taken a turn for the better.
“Master, this is the best I can do.” Little Nightmare’s voice was tinged with exhaustion as it rang out in Wang Chong’s mind.
“It’s enough. Little Nightmare, thank you,” Wang Chong sincerely said.
Little Nightmare was extremely weak, and to do this much had been very difficult.
“Leave the rest to me!” Wang Chong said.
Buzz!
Wang Chong quickly departed his study and appeared above the estate. He took one last glance at the lantern-lit estate, a hint of sorrow in his eyes, and then he aimed a hand down below.
Bang!
The air trembled as a dazzling, dark golden halo swiftly engulfed the estate.
At the same time, Halos of Spacetime of various sizes appeared all across the Wang Family Residence, creating a vast and complicated formation.
Bang!
An invisible energy caused the Wang Family Residence to rapidly shrink, and in the blink of an eye, it vanished, completely sealed.
Until all this was resolved, this was the only solution Wang Chong could think of to this predicament.
Once this was done, Wang Chong departed from the halo’s dimension.
The next step was to find his two Divine Embryos!
When he next appeared, he was above the mountain. He looked around, confirmed the direction, and quickly began to make his way toward the approximate location of the two Divine Embryos.
……
Around eight hundred li north of the capital, amidst steep and craggy mountains, more than fifty thousand meters beneath the surface…
This was a silent and lifeless place that should have been out of reach to humans.
But at this moment, a ball of weak energy lurked here.
Within this silver ball of energy was a muscular figure equipped with armor, seated cross-legged.
His divine armor was in tatters, the shoulders and chest completely punched through, the scars of battle still evident.
Golden blood trickled out from the armor, unable to be staunched.
If one entered this body, one would find that a destructive and terrifying energy was running through it, wreaking havoc and slicing away at its insides.
This figure was completely focused on circulating Stellar Energy in the hopes of treating his energy, but every time a wound was healed, that alien Stellar Energy would cut it back open.
The wounds building up on his body were frightening to behold.
If an outsider had been here, they would have undoubtedly recognized this wound-covered figure to be Wang Chong’s third Divine Embryo.
Buzz!
As the wounds built up, Divine Embryo 3 seemed to sense something and warily looked up. He swiftly rose, his body tensing as he prepared for battle.
“It’s me!”
Divine Embryo 3 trembled, and then his muscles relaxed.
A few moments later, a figure penetrated through the layers of rock and appeared above Divine Embryo 3. It was none other than Wang Chong’s original body.
Seeing Divine Embryo 3, Wang Chong exhaled in relief.
I finally found it!
But Wang Chong’s expression quickly turned grave.
His original body and his clone were originally one. He had never needed to communicate with Divine Embryo 3 as if they were two independent beings.
There was something very strange about Divine Embryo 3’s state, and it wasn’t because it was badly wounded from an intense battle. Wang Chong could sense that there was even something wrong with Divine Embryo 3’s soul and mind. It was like another power was disrupting it, blocking the connection between him and it.
Buzz!
Wang Chong swiftly placed an index finger on Divine Embryo 3’s forehead.
Hiss!
A black wisp of energy was soon ejected from the back of Divine Embryo 3’s head. Wang Chong wrapped his hand around it and pulled, extracting a greenish-black ball of flame from the depths of the head.
The edges of this flame were black, and at the heart was a complicated and ancient inscription that Wang Chong did not recognize.
“That scoundrel Heaven! So you were trying to take my Divine Embryo for yourself!”
His eyes chilled as he recognized the purpose of this flame.
This flame’s energy signature was the same as Heaven’s. This was a special inscription that Heaven had developed specifically to take the two Divine Embryos.
This divine inscription could cut his connection with the clones and would also silently seep into their bodies.
The Divine Embryos had a limited consciousness, so they had failed to realize that they had taken this attack in the middle of the battle. If Little Nightmare had not been able to find their general locations, allowing him to find them early, Heaven would have needed just a few more days to succeed.
“Alas, it’s not yours, never yours.”
Wang Chong coldly laughed as he pinched the flame out.
As that greenish-black flame went out, a suppressed energy was finally able to reach out and connect Wang Chong and Divine Embryo 3.
The original body and clone were one once more.
Boom!
An enormous energy erupted from Wang Chong’s body and poured into Divine Embryo 3, instantly sweeping through all of Divine Embryo 3’s veins and driving out that vicious and alien Stellar Energy.
The wounds on Divine Embryo 3’s body rapidly began to heal.
Buzz!
Wang Chong quickly used spacetime energy to draw Divine Embryo 3 into the Foundation Dimension.
The Foundation Dimension had powerful restorative properties, and Wang Chong had stored a large amount of energy within it. In there, Divine Embryo 3’s recovery would be much faster.
After getting back Divine Embryo 3, Wang Chong quickly shot off to find Divine Embryo 2.
With the three Divine Embryos brought back together, Wang Chong’s strength instantly soared. Even though he was still not able to defeat Heaven, he was at least better able to protect himself.
“Heaven, it’s our turn now,” Wang Chong sternly said.
Looking back at the capital, Wang Chong immediately began to make his way toward it.
……
Leaving the mountains, Wang Chong did not go straight to the capital. Instead, he turned midway and made a detour.
Heaven was simply too powerful. Before entering the capital, Wang Chong needed to see someone.
Now that neither his master nor the Wushang Village Chief was present, only by borrowing a certain man’s power could Wang Chong increase his chances.
Buzz!
A dark golden Halo of Spacetime appeared, and Wang Chong vanished.
Around a thousand li to the northeast of the capital, Wang Chong walked out from his Halo of Spacetime.
He should be around here, Wang Chong mentally commented as he looked down.
The majority of his side’s experts had disappeared in the battle over the capital, including Su Zhengchen. There were few people who could help him, but the former Crown Prince, Li Xuantu, was undoubtedly one of them.
After that incident in which Genesis Supreme was slain, Li Xuantu had left the capital and vanished without a trace. And though Li Xuantu had told no one where he had gone and could make himself very difficult to find if he so desired, he was not actually that difficult to track down.
