Bang!

A time energy even stronger than w.a.n.g Chong’s erupted from Heaven’s body. This powerful energy tore apart the fabric of s.p.a.ce and blasted w.a.n.g Chong back.

As this power neared w.a.n.g Chong, it began to seep into his body and distort his organs and meridians. But in the end, it was repulsed and rejected by an energy of the same nature.

In a flash of light, w.a.n.g Chong pulled away from Heaven while stabilizing his body.

Buzz!

Almost at the moment he had stabilized himself, a nebula-like power turned into a halo that ringed around w.a.n.g Chong’s body.

But different from what w.a.n.g Chong had imagined, Heaven did not use this chance to attack.

While this clash had seemed intense, both w.a.n.g Chong and Heaven had merely been probing each other out.

w.a.n.g Chong was trying to see how strong Heaven was, while Heaven was trying to see what w.a.n.g Chong’s limit was.

One was at the Divine Martial realm!

The other was at the half-step Divine Martial!

Three years of diligent cultivation had allowed w.a.n.g Chong to break through that threshold and reach the half-step Divine Martial level, which had finally given him the ability to exchange blows with Heaven.

Time!

This was the secret of the Divine Martial realm!

But based on the abilities that w.a.n.g Chong had shown, Heaven was clearly more capable than w.a.n.g Chong in this aspect. With one palm, he had destroyed w.a.n.g Chong’s time energy and sent him flying.

w.a.n.g Chong stared at Heaven and said, “Heaven, no matter what you say, you cannot change your ultimate fate! No matter what sort of price I have to pay, I will turn you to dust! This world isn’t yours to destroy as you please!”

Even though he was suppressed by Heaven, w.a.n.g Chong showed no fear.

“Hahaha, in the end, half-step Divine Martial isn’t Divine Martial. If you think that just this cultivation is enough to contend against Us, then you are being too naive. Come—if you wish to save that woman and save the world, use everything you have! Let me see how strong you really are! To hide strength before Us is merely to humiliate yourself and is utterly meaningless!”

Heaven laughed.

Heaven was cautious, far more cautious than others might expect.

Even though he had completely suppressed w.a.n.g Chong in their first clash, he did not underestimate his foe.

At Heaven’s level of cultivation, one’s senses and intuition became extremely powerful.

Someone with only half-step Divine Martial cultivation would not be able to oppose him. Not even Li Taiyi would have been capable of this feat.

Heaven was almost certain that w.a.n.g Chong had more up his sleeve.

Heaven’s words made w.a.n.g Chong’s eyes twitch a little, but this time, w.a.n.g Chong did not try to argue.

“As you wis.h.!.+”

With this simple statement, a sun-like halo appeared behind w.a.n.g Chong’s head.

With a pull from w.a.n.g Chong, three identical w.a.n.g Chongs with nebula-like Halos of s.p.a.cetime around their bodies appeared behind w.a.n.g Chong.

The three Divine Embryos!

Three half-step Divine Martial experts!

Even Heaven couldn’t help but be slightly shocked at this sight.

He wasn’t surprised that w.a.n.g Chong couldn’t reach half-step Divine Martial. Given his talent, Li Taiyi’s legacy, and Master Guangcheng’s help, he was completely capable of reaching this level. But Heaven had not imagined that w.a.n.g Chong would be so talented as to bring all three Divine Embryos to this level as well in those three years, not just his original body.

For someone as powerful as Heaven, a single half-step Divine Martial expert was not anything worth worrying about, but four was entirely different.

If quality wasn’t enough, at times, quant.i.ty could make up for it.

Heaven finally understood why w.a.n.g Chong dared to challenge him directly.

“Heaven, hand over your life!”

w.a.n.g Chong’s bone-chilling voice penetrated through the surrounding dimensions. The moment he summoned the three clones from the halo divine tool, he fused his energy with theirs and unleashed a barrage of attacks on Heaven.

“Art of G.o.d and Demon Obliteration!

“Great Yin Yang Art!

“Origin Lance!

“G.o.d-Executing Slas.h.!.+

“Chaos Storm!

“Supreme Buddha!”

Attack after attack swept toward Heaven. Each of these was an ultimate technique of the world, and in w.a.n.g Chong’s hands, they possessed a power that could alarm ghosts and G.o.ds.

w.a.n.g Chong had only just attacked, but the momentum of his offensive was enough to shake the surrounding dimensions, with the more fragile parallel dimensions even crumbling away.

But right after w.a.n.g Chong attacked, Heaven vanished. As he pulled away from w.a.n.g Chong, torrents of s.p.a.cetime energy erupted from his body and repulsed w.a.n.g Chong’s power.

Boom!

At the same time, Heaven opened his hand, and the fabric of s.p.a.ce trembled as countless blazing bolts of golden lightning erupted from his palm, illuminating all the surrounding dimensions.

“w.a.n.g Chong, if you want to save that Xu Qiqin, follow Us!”

Heaven’s voice rumbled like thunder, and his body disappeared in a flash of lightning, replaced by an enormous black vortex, a spatial pa.s.sage.

w.a.n.g Chong could sense the surrounding dimensions s.h.i.+fting. All of a sudden, an enormous s.p.a.cetime maze appeared in front of him.

This s.p.a.cetime maze seemed very special in w.a.n.g Chong’s senses, and he could not even sense its edges.

In front of this enormous maze, anyone would feel puny and insignificant.

The black s.p.a.cetime vortex was the entrance to this maze.

“If you want to deal with Us, come inside! Right! I forgot to tell you. That army of millions of humans you’ve gathered can’t hold out for long. They will soon be wiped out by Our Celestial Army!” Heaven’s booming and mocking voice came from within the vortex.

But w.a.n.g Chong merely smiled. His least concern was that battle taking place on the continent.

“The victor has yet to be decided!”

With a cold snort, w.a.n.g Chong used the halo divine tool to enclose him and the three Divine Embryos, and then he shot into the black vortex.

……

Meanwhile, on the Turkic steppe in the northern reaches of the continent…

Thwishthwishthwis.h.!.+

With piercing whistles, short arrows descended like a plague of locusts, engulfing the golden figures of the Celestial Army.

Upon seeing this rain of arrows, Essence Supreme and the men in black grinned and snorted in derision.

These beehives w.a.n.g Chong had developed were highly efficient on the battlefield, but they were wholly insufficient in the eyes of Essence Supreme’s group.

These beehives were incapable of piercing through the armor of heavy infantry or cavalry, let alone the armor of the powerful Celestial Army.

But as the storm of arrows descended, Essence Supreme and the others paled.

Swooshswooshswoos.h.!.+

With the sounds of arrows piercing through armor, the closest Celestial Army soldier was turned into a pincus.h.i.+on, the short and sharp arrows even piercing through his visor and penetrating into his skull.

Without even a groan, the soldier collapsed to the ground, blood gus.h.i.+ng out of his body.

And he was soon joined by tens of thousands of Celestial Army soldiers.

Wootz Steel!

Essence Supreme and the others suddenly realized what was happening.

The heads of these arrows had all been made using Wootz Steel.

This material was incredibly sharp and tough, and not even the armor worn by the Celestial Army could block it.

Essence Supreme had not imagined that w.a.n.g Chong would go so far to prepare for this war.

“Release!”

As Essence Supreme and the others were still reeling in shock, yet another wave of beehives was fired.

Thudthudthud!

Another large swath of the Celestial Army was cut down in pools of blood.

The human army had held back the beehives precisely so they could be used at this moment.

When the countless Celestial Army soldiers had pushed up to the steel defense line, when they were the closest and at their most concentrated, the beehives’ Wootz Steel arrows could have their greatest effect.

Wootz Steel was extremely valuable and rare, but for this final battle, to deal with the Celestial Army, w.a.n.g Chong had overruled the objections of others and used Wootz Steel for these arrows.

Over the last three years, they had emptied out the Hyderabad Mountains and worked night and day to forge these special arrows.

This was the only way to make this weapon effective in this war on which the fate of humanity hinged.

The battle had only just begun. The Celestial G.o.d Organization had never imagined that the Celestial Army, so vital to its plans, would receive such a heavy blow.

But as he stood atop the altar, Essence Supreme coldly smiled.

“I’d like to see how many Celestial Army soldiers you can kill, how long you can hold on!”

These Wootz Steel beehives were truly formidable, but w.a.n.g Chong was looking down on the Celestial Army too much.

This army had been tempered through countless epochs and hundreds of battles with countless dynasties. Moreover, their golden armor was exceptionally tough and had been designed in consideration of attacks from powerful bows.

The firing of all these Wootz Steel beehives, the deluge of short arrows, seemed frightening, but upon closer inspection, one would discover that the actual damage dealt to the Celestial Army was not that dire. A significant number of the arrows would only manage to pierce partly through the armor before they were held fast.

In terms of toughness, even armor made from the finest refined steel could not compare to the armor of the Celestial Army.

Roooar!

As Essence Supreme coldly laughed, the sea of Celestial Army soldiers furiously roared and launched their counterattack in the face of the beehive barrages.

Bang!

A tall and muscular Celestial Army soldier viciously punched at a steel wall. Destructive Stellar Energy erupted out, and with a metallic bang, a giant dent appeared in the wall, and the base of the wall shuddered. This one punch had almost sent the wall flying away.
