An Lushan put his all into the attack, focusing purely on offense.

Over the course of the entire war, even though Genesis Supreme had granted him the World Armor, An Lushan had avoided clas.h.i.+ng with w.a.n.g Chong, instead preferring to use Genesis Supreme’s strength to deal with him.

But now that he had been pushed into a dead end, he erupted with unprecedented fighting intent.

w.a.n.g Chong was far too strong!

Even Genesis Supreme had died to him.

There was no one in the northeast who could contend against him.

No one understood more than An Lushan how frightening w.a.n.g Chong was. Even with the a.s.sistance of the Power of the World and all of that lightning energy, he still wasn’t confident about his chances against w.a.n.g Chong.

In order to defeat w.a.n.g Chong, he only needed to be even fiercer.

Most importantly, now that he had lost everything, he only had one thought in mind: kill w.a.n.g Chong no matter the cost, even if he had to give up his own life.

This man who had ruined his imperial aspirations had to die.

But An Lushan had underestimated just how frightening w.a.n.g Chong was.

“Hmph!” A cold snort rang out in An Lushan’s ear, tinged with indescribable scorn.

w.a.n.g Chong’s original body had started off stronger than An Lushan, and with the power of the World Consciousness, it wasn’t something that An Lushan could stop.

Bang!

Another resplendent beam of Sword Qi sliced through s.p.a.ce and cleaved through the lightning energy that An Lushan had unleashed.

“Ah!”

An Lushan plummeted from the heavens like a meteor. Boom! He was once more brought cras.h.i.+ng to the ground by w.a.n.g Chong.

Rumble! The entire region swayed and shuddered from the impact.

Kaclack!

The World Consciousness seemed thoroughly enraged now, and in a flash, six or seven thick lightning bolts crashed down onto An Lushan’s body.

Not only that, the Origin Energy of the entire Eastern Turkic steppe surged up and converged on An Lushan’s body.

At this moment, An Lushan had truly become the energy center of the world.

“Aaaaah! I’ll kill youuu!”

An Lushan’s ruthless voice resounded through the world. At the site of the impact, dust roiled and a tyrannical beam of black energy shot upward, piercing through the heavens as it made its way toward w.a.n.g Chong in the air.

An Lushan joined the black beam of energy in traveling upward, slas.h.i.+ng at w.a.n.g Chong.

“Still not willing to give up?” w.a.n.g Chong’s majestic voice boomed through the world. Bzzz! One dark golden Halo of s.p.a.cetime after another appeared and closed over An Lushan’s attack like golden bands.

These Halos of s.p.a.cetime rapidly constricted. Boom! Boom! Boom! The collapsing power of s.p.a.cetime cut off the black beam of energy, section by section.

Bang!

Before An Lushan could react, w.a.n.g Chong appeared in front of him and slashed the Xuanyuan Sword. The sharp edge of the sword paired with Grotto Heaven energy left a scar more than half an inch deep in An Lushan’s World Armor, and the sword’s explosive strength once more blasted An Lushan back into the ground.

“Special Event: Clash Against Destiny!” The Stone of Destiny’s voice rang out in w.a.n.g Chong’s ears.

“The smallest seed can grow into a skysc.r.a.ping tree. When forced to deal with the situation, the smallest chick will finally mature into an iron-winged eagle and soar across the azure skies. From the moment user was born, user endured the rejecting force of this world, facing the threat of obliteration at any moment. But times have changed. Since being promoted to Archon of Destiny, user has possessed the ability to contend against destiny and earn its respect.

“In this struggle against the World Consciousness, user has thwarted the World Consciousness’s attack three times, unlocking the special ability, Power of Adjudication!

“Description: The Power of Adjudication is an important ability that allows the user to counterattack against the world and contend against the World Consciousness. At 100%, the Power of Adjudication grants the user an attack that can utterly annihilate the World Consciousness’s attacks and prevent the World Consciousness from reawakening for the next thirty days.

“Note: The World Consciousness cannot be destroyed, only defeated again and again or sealed for a period of time. Since user resides in this world, such an attempt would be akin to trying to pick up one’s own hair to lift oneself off the ground.

“Note: User’s Power of Adjudication is currently at zero. More power can be acc.u.mulated by thwarting the attacks of the World Consciousness!”

w.a.n.g Chong’s feet paused, his eyes flas.h.i.+ng in surprise.

The World Consciousness was coiled above An Lushan, and w.a.n.g Chong lacked any good method of dealing with this sort of incorporeal existence. Moreover, while the Xuanyuan Sword could damage An Lushan’s World Armor, the degree of damage was not great. With this ‘sh.e.l.l’ protecting An Lushan, it would take some time for w.a.n.g Chong to kill him.

Worst of all was that no matter how fierce w.a.n.g Chong’s attacks became or how severe An Lushan’s wounds, the World Consciousness would simply grow stronger in response and interfere to an even greater degree.

If he chose his actions poorly, An Lushan really did have a chance of escaping.

But this Power of Adjudication that the Stone of Destiny had offered presented another possibility!

“No! I’ll never lose to you!” A furious roar came from the ground. An Lushan did not know what had happened with w.a.n.g Chong, but his repeated failure to defeat w.a.n.g Chong and even the inability of the World Consciousness to deal with him had only further incensed him.

Rumble!

Lightning flashed as An Lushan shot up from the ground, gathered up the Power of the World, and a.s.sailed w.a.n.g Chong.

Boomboomboom!

The two continued to fiercely battle in the air. An Lushan attacked w.a.n.g Chong with no regard to his life, and w.a.n.g Chong cast An Lushan down from the heavens again and again.

In this battle, w.a.n.g Chong constantly had the upper hand.

“Congratulations to user! For thwarting the World Consciousness’s attack once, your Power of Adjudication has been increased to 10%!”

“Congratulations to user! For thwarting the World Consciousness’s attack twice, your Power of Adjudication has been increased to 20%!”

“Congratulations to user! For thwarting the World Consciousness’s attack thrice, your Power of Adjudication has been increased to 30%!”

An Lushan was red-eyed and insane, constantly attacking again and again. Each time he was knocked from the sky by w.a.n.g Chong, he would heedlessly charge back up, not sensing at all the changes on w.a.n.g Chong’s body.

During the entire process, w.a.n.g Chong remained calm and collected.

After the tenth time w.a.n.g Chong pushed back An Lushan, the Stone of Destiny spoke once more.

“Congratulations to user! Your Power of Adjudication has reached 100%, granting you the ability to counterattack against the World Consciousness a single time.”

w.a.n.g Chong’s eyes flashed with delight.

“w.a.n.g Chong! I’ll kill you!!”

A figure shot up from the ground like a cannonball, surrounded by a furious storm of energy.

Each time An Lushan was defeated, his body would grow slightly stronger. Though An Lushan had yet to control the power of s.p.a.cetime, in terms of pure power, he had already reached the peak of the Grotto Heaven realm and wasn’t much weaker than Genesis Supreme.

This was all due to the boost from the Power of the World.

This was a development that not even An Lushan had antic.i.p.ated, but his eyes were crimson and his face distorted. The only thought in his mind was to kill w.a.n.g Chong, and he could no longer notice such things.

“Enough! It’s time to end things!”

w.a.n.g Chong’s eyes glinted with cold light. Using the power of s.p.a.cetime, he instantly appeared above An Lushan’s head and swung his sword down. The enormous force instantly blasted through the protective Halos of Lightning around An Lushan and sent him tunneling into the earth.

“Again!” An Lushan savagely roared, as if nothing had happened to him. He jumped to his feet and prepared to once more receive the ‘baptism’ from the Power of the World.

But when An Lushan raised his head, the scene that he saw was branded into his soul.

“An Lushan, there is no next time. Now, not even the World Consciousness can protect you!” w.a.n.g Chong’s cold and lofty voice resounded through the world.

w.a.n.g Chong stood in the air like a G.o.d, his body erupting with brilliant light.

Bang!

A fist of golden energy shot into the air and struck the center of the thundercloud vortex.

The entire world seemed to fall silent, all things frozen in time. A moment later, an enormous boom came from the center of the thundercloud vortex, the unwilling roar of the World Consciousness, and then the sky tore open.

Yes, w.a.n.g Chong’s attack had wounded the World Consciousness, and a few moments later, the lightning scattered, and that thundercloud vortex circling above began to disperse. It took only a few seconds for it to completely disappear.

And with the thundercloud vortex, the immense World Consciousness also vanished.

“Congratulations to user! For defeating the World Consciousness (Avatar) and completing an impossible feat once, you have been rewarded with 100,000,000 points of Destiny Energy!” The Stone of Destiny’s voice rang out in w.a.n.g Chong’s mind.

“This… This is impossible!”

Sensing that familiar energy fading, An Lushan trembled, staring up at the sky in disbelief. Even his crimson eyes somewhat sobered up.

Fear!

Shock!

And then came an endless chill!
