Chapter 2406: The Decisive Battle (XIV)

Bang!

As Buddhist hymns filled the air, the massive King of Buddhas launched its six hands upward like a lotus blooming, thrusting its palms at the giant violet hand and the 'Purifying Flame of the Celestial Domain'!

A moment later, those two enormous energies collided in the air.

Rumble!

It was impossible to describe that collision. The titanic powers at work here exceeded the imagination of mortal martial artists. Crack! The world that Heaven had built, this spacetime maze, utterly collapsed.

Giant fissures began to spread out with astonishing speed.

When Wang Chong and Heaven went all-out, the energy shockwave broke the limit of what this world could handle!

Amidst the storm of Stellar Energy, Wang Chong and Heaven vanished at the same time, once more disappearing into the millions of dimensions and planes around them.

Violet gouts of flame and rays of golden Buddhist light swept out in every direction. Time had fallen into complete chaos, and small planes and parallel dimensions were constantly crumbling and then returning to their former appearance as if the flow of time was being reversed.

Everything was changing and inconstant!

Destructive storms howled around the two of them.

Wang Chong, wearing the Samsara Battle Armor, floated in the void, staring through the chaotic storms and torrents of destruction. With one glance, he saw the armored and divine figure of Heaven, his eyes blazing like lightning bolts, so bright that they were almost blinding to look at.

But compared to before, Heaven's expression had clearly changed.

Although Heaven was doing his best to hide it, the deep shock was still evident in his eyes.

He had never imagined that Wang Chong could reach this stage. Three years ago, Wang Chong could barely manage to beat his avatar, but now, he was already at the stage where he could contend against his original body!

Their clash had even managed to destroy the world that he had created!

While Wang Chong still could not defeat him or present a lethal threat to him, it was already shocking enough that he could withstand the Celestial Emperor's Fury and the Purifying Flames of the Celestial Domain.

Heaven suddenly understood that this youth was far stronger and more frightening than he had imagined!

The two of them said nothing in the silence. In the end, it was Heaven who broke the silence.

"I truly did not think that the seeds of martial arts I sowed back then would be cultivated to this level by you! We truly underestimated you!"

Heaven stared at Wang Chong, making no attempt to suppress his killing intent.

Wang Chong was too strong. He should have only just reached the half-step Divine Martial realm, rather than having a full three years, so he shouldn't have been this strong.

It was horrifying that Wang Chong was able to display this level of power.

The existence of even one of this sort of foe, this sort of enemy, would make one's sleep restless and uneasy.

The stronger Wang Chong was, the less Heaven was willing to tolerate his existence, the more he wanted to kill him!

One Celestial Emperor for this world was sufficient! A second was not needed!

Clang!

Heaven, wearing his Celestial Emperor Armor, instantly disappeared. When he next appeared, he was above Wang Chong's head, the silver sword in his hand streaking at Wang Chong.

Under Heaven's control, the destructive storms converged on Wang Chong.

Bang!

Wang Chong reacted quickly, disappearing almost the instant Heaven swung his sword. At the same time, the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand unleashed a beam of sharp Sword Qi at Heaven.

But as the Sword Qi passed through Heaven's body, nothing happened, like it had penetrated through air.

Yet Wang Chong could clearly sense that Heaven was there, that this was his actual body, not an illusion.

At almost the same time, swish! There was a soft whistle. While Wang Chong's Xuanyuan Sword had missed, Heaven's Celestial Emperor Sword had penetrated through the Samsara Battle Armor and was thrusting straight at his back.

Bizarrely, Heaven was in front of Wang Chong, and there was not even an indistinct blur behind Wang Chong.

Swoosh!

Even though Wang Chong reacted extremely quickly, that sword still managed to strike him. Besides that, as the sword made contact, it unleashed a pure destructive energy.

This attack did not only pierce the Samsara Battle Armor. It had an unbelievable ability to destroy the flesh and soul.

But a moment later, a dim, firefly-like light emerged from Wang Chong's back where the sword had stabbed, and then time reversed. The Samsara Battle Armor was rapidly restored to its original state. Besides that, Heaven's destructive Sword Qi was enclosed in a ball of golden light and repelled out of Wang Chong's body.

"Heaven, you're not the only person who can use the laws of time." Wang Chong's eyes twinkled as he suddenly spoke.

"Haha, I didn't think you would discover so soon."

Heaven's voice rang out in Wang Chong's mind.

Wang Chong's judgment had been correct. Heaven's sword truly was sharp, but this was not the only reason it had been able to pierce Wang Chong.

Wang Chong's Samsara Battle Armor had not actually been pierced. This suit of armor was very special, as it was stored within the Stone of Destiny and could be instantly equipped in less than a second. In this process, it existed in a very special state.

Heaven had reversed the Samsara Battle Armor back into this special state and then stabbed his sword into Wang Chong's back.

Normally, this shouldn't have happened, and it should have been impossible for this moment to be exploited.

But Heaven controlled the power of time. Time was the foundation of all things and stood above all other laws.

There was nothing Heaven could not use.

Swish!

Though he was speaking with Wang Chong, Heaven did not slow down his pace. In the blink of an eye, he attacked again. This time, his sword became six swords, thrusting at Wang Chong from different directions.

Besides that, time reversal was once more used on Wang Chong's Samsara Battle Armor, a gap appearing where each sword was targeted.

Plush! Blood gushed as Wang Chong was stabbed by six Celestial Emperor Swords, but a moment later, Wang Chong's wounds were healed.

Six vicious sword intents and their destructive energy were pushed out of Wang Chong's body.

Wang Chong was completely uninjured.

Heaven could control time, and so could Wang Chong.

Heaven was simply too powerful. Wang Chong didn't have such a high cultivation level, nor was he capable of controlling that much time energy. Thus, Wang Chong used his small amount of time energy on his own body, localized to the areas where he was wounded.

In this way, Wang Chong used a negligible amount of energy while still successfully blocking Heaven's attack.

This was what it meant to lift one thousand jin with four taels.

Large and small each had their own uses, and long and short had their advantages and disadvantages. Wang Chong had understood this concept a long time ago.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Spacetime energy, wrapped in the energy of time reversal, exploded again and again in the air.

From a certain perspective, their battle had already surpassed the limits of what martial artists could imagine.

All laws were now useless on Wang Chong and Heaven. Their figures could be seen scattered throughout this void.

But these figures were incomplete in some way. They might just be an arm, a sword, half a body, or maybe a corner of their clothes.

In the chaos of spacetime, the two of them were everywhere.

Wang Chong was not completely on the defensive. While Heaven attacked, Wang Chong moved the Xuanyuan Sword with incredible speed, vicious beams of Sword Qi infused with time energy crisscrossing through the air.

Heaven could use time reversal on Wang Chong's Samsara Battle Armor, and Wang Chong could do the same to Heaven's Celestial Emperor Armor.

But Wang Chong used his power directly on the armor, having the armor expose openings so that his Sword Qi and destructive universal energy could penetrate through the chinks.

In terms of combat techniques and energy proficiency, both Wang Chong and Heaven had reached the apex. Their prowess could make one sigh in wonder.

Heaven had made many attempts to pierce through Wang Chong's head and destroy his soul and body, but no matter what he did, he could not penetrate Wang Chong's watertight defense.

There was an extremely tenacious strength in Wang Chong's body that would always block Heaven's lethal attacks at the last second, repulsing Heaven's time energy and neutralizing the attack at the final moment.

Thus, for a short while, even Heaven found it difficult to defeat Wang Chong.

"Child of Destruction, you truly are powerful. Alas, no matter how you struggle, you cannot change this world's fate. What does it matter how earnestly you struggle? By the time our battle is decided, that battle on the continent would have been long concluded, humanity rendered extinct, Our Purification plan complete!"

Heaven's booming voice resounded through the space.

Bang!

As Heaven spoke, a vision appeared in the void, depicting the battle of the two armies on the Turkic steppe.

The enormous Doomsday Behemoths were slaughtering their way through the battlefield, and though the human army was doing its best, it was simply no match, countless soldiers being cut down.

"Wang Chong, do you see it? This is the army you trained. Humans will never be able to fight against gods. It won't be long before all of your soldiers are wiped out!"

As Heaven spoke, his Psychic Energy locked onto Wang Chong.

It was better to attack the mind than attack the city.

This wasn't the first time he had used this tactic on Wang Chong. He had done the same in the Celestial Palace.

The sight of the terrifying Doomsday Behemoths made Wang Chong's eyes fly open in shock and his expression turn grave. But a moment later, Wang Chong recovered.

"War is the duty of warriors. Whether it is me or those soldiers, they are willing to sacrifice themselves to defeat you and save the world."
