“Stop dragging things out!”
His silver hair dancing in the snowstorm, Firmament Supreme finally spoke, his eyes flashing with cold and dazzling light.
“Since you won’t move, let me!”
His cold and indifferent voice resounded through the world.
In the distance, the rampaging Wang Chong trembled, his feet pausing for a moment as he glanced in Firmament Supreme’s direction.
Firmament Supreme was as motionless as a statue, his body having long ago fused with the teleportation gate.
But at this moment, his right hand reached out, snatching at the ground beneath him.
Bang!
Powerful spacetime ripples immediately began to radiate from his right hand.
“You thought you could deceive me?”
Firmament Supreme’s face was cold as his fingers clenched together and pulled. An immense power immediately engulfed a certain area of the earth beneath him.
“Get out here!”
“Not good!”
Deep in the earth, where the azure crystal core was located, a cry of alarm rang out. Divine Embryo 3, which had been quietly absorbing energy and setting up a formation, was suddenly rendered motionless by spacetime energy.
“A bunch of reckless fools, daring to try to divert my attention and play around with me! Did you really think this god didn’t know what you were up to down there?”
Bang!
Before anyone could react, Firmament Supreme fiercely pulled. A giant spacetime hole appeared in the ground in front of him, and Divine Embryo 3 emerged, wrapped in a cocoon of azure light.
Wang Chong trembled in shock, his breathing almost stopping.
He knew that Firmament Supreme was powerful, but not this terrifyingly powerful. Separated by a vast distance, he was still able to pull Divine Embryo 3 out from the ground, stopping it from laying down its destructive formation.
Divine Embryo 3’s feet were still down below, but its head was on the surface.
This was one of the mysterious abilities of spacetime power!
“Not good!”
Wang Chong’s face paled. Immediately giving up on the men in black, he pushed the Shadow Fiend Art to the limit, streaking toward the teleportation gate as a faint black line.
Firmament Supreme was simply too powerful!
Wang Chong had dared to run rampant amongst the man in black precisely because he had noticed that Firmament Supreme was at a crucial moment in the construction of the teleportation gate and could not leave. Moreover, at this distance, Firmament Supreme’s power over spacetime was greatly weakened. As long as Wang Chong couldn’t be pinned down, nothing could be done to him.
But Firmament Supreme had already noticed the existence of Divine Embryo 3, and now that it had been pulled up to the front of the teleportation gate, it could be easily killed by someone of Firmament Supreme’s strength.
“Hmph, not knowing your own strength!”
Firmament Supreme coldly snorted in disdain. He would first kill off this thief attempting to steal his energy core, and then he would kill off the rest, one by one, like a cat playing with mice.
“Die!”
Firmament Supreme’s expression was ice-cold, his body thrumming with spacetime power. His slender fingers opened and reached out for Divine Embryo 3’s head.
The palm was suffused with so much power that it could probably instantly shatter Divine Embryo 3’s head.
Buzz!
Just when Firmament Supreme’s fingers were about to close, Firmament Supreme raised an eyebrow, his heartbeat quickening as an extreme feeling of unease welled up in his mind.
“It’s not right!
“Who goes there?!” Firmament Supreme barked, turning his head toward the spacetime tunnel through which he had pulled out Divine Embryo 3.
At first glance, there was nothing in the pitch-black tunnel, and it seemed as if he had been seeing things.
But a moment later, a voice that had lain in wait for a long time suddenly exploded out.
“An excellent chance!
“Now is the moment!”
As that bizarre voice rang out, a formidable energy exploded out of nowhere, instantly causing a change in Firmament Supreme’s spacetime tunnel.
Bang!
A dazzling blue light exploded out of the spacetime tunnel which had been on the verge of closing.
It started off like the glow of a firefly, but it rapidly expanded to more than one hundred times its size, a massive rock bursting with energy that forced open the spacetime passage before Firmament Supreme could close it.
Upon seeing this familiar blue light and sensing the frenzied energy within it, Firmament Supreme’s pupils constricted, his face paling.
The energy core!
The source of energy he had placed ten-some li beneath the ground to provide power for the teleportation gate!
“How could this be!?”
Firmament Supreme gnashed his teeth, his eyes bulging in disbelief.
He had already seized that scoundrel underground, and the energy core was reinforced by the formation. How could it have suddenly entered his spacetime tunnel?
Unless…
Firmament Supreme had a sudden thought, his body trembling in understanding.
As if in response to Firmament Supreme’s thoughts, a furious roar brimming with peerless strength came from under the earth.
“Open up!!”
The voice of Divine Embryo 1 thundered over the shores of the Caspian Sea.
With a furious roar, Divine Embryo 1 grabbed the massive energy core with one hand while the other hand grabbed Divine Embryo 3’s ankle. At the moment Firmament Supreme was distracted by Divine Embryo 3, Wang Chong stopped hiding, unleashing his peak Subtle realm energy and his powerful Earth Element abilities.
Rumble!
Earthquake!
Through the immense power of Divine Embryo 1, Wang Chong shattered the formations stabilizing the energy core. Veins bulged on his arms as he pushed the energy core through the spacetime tunnel, and with a deafening roar, the core shot toward the teleportation gate.
Spacetime energy was not something ordinary martial artists could trifle with!
And trying to play a trick in front of a Grotto Heaven expert like Firmament Supreme was incredibly difficult. However, in the Sage Emperor’s notebook, Wang Chong had seen many secrets regarding the Grotto Heaven realm.
Grotto Heaven experts could open and close spacetime tunnels with a single thought, but if one charged into a spacetime tunnel at the last second, one could forcefully extend the time the tunnel was open for a few moments.
It was an extremely dangerous course of actions, and if one lacked sufficient strength, it would be the same as charging into a meat grinder.
The final result would be a body crushed to pieces!
But Wang Chong was far stronger than ordinary experts. Most importantly, Wang Chong had forced the massive energy core into the spacetime tunnel.
The closing spacetime tunnel had been forced open by the frenzied energy from the core. This also pushed back the grinding energy of the spacetime tunnel, giving Wang Chong a few moments.
For the divine embryo, this was more than enough time.
“Ha!”
Holding the massive energy core with one hand, Divine Embryo 1 crossed over Firmament Supreme’s head.
“Go!”
Firmament Supreme had placed many more seals around the teleportation gate. Wang Chong pushed all his energy into the energy core to break these seals so that it could get closer and closer to the teleportation gate.
Divine Embryo 1 also suffered from the frenzied energy leaking out of the core.
Freezing energy rampaged within Divine Embryo 1’s body, and it seemed like it would fall apart at any moment. Its Stellar Energy was also freezing into chunks of ice that dropped from the sky.
Even with Divine Embryo 3’s assistance, that chill was far too terrifying. But Wang Chong could no longer worry about this.
He could sense that the energy inside the massive energy core was extremely unstable, like a volcano on the verge of eruption.
After all, the men in black only needed massive amounts of energy to build the teleportation gate. There was no need for this energy to be stable. Thus, from the very beginning, the energy core had been extremely unstable.
Divine Embryo 3 had been hiding around the energy core this entire time, using its Ice Element skill to lay down formations and brands within the core to destroy the balance in the core and increase the instability.
But there was one thing on the shores of the Caspian Sea that was even more dangerous and unstable…
The teleportation gate behind Firmament Supreme!
In all the universe, the most unstable thing of all was spacetime, and the teleportation gate built by the men in black was established within spacetime.
The teleportation gate would stabilize once it was finished, but right now, it was still incomplete. This was why Firmament Supreme’s Grotto Heaven strength was restrained and he could only watch as the Earth Official and Water Official were killed.
An extremely unstable energy core plus an extremely unstable teleportation gate colliding together created a completely predictable result…
It would be like a snowflake striking a bonfire, but the reactions would be hundreds of millions of times more violent and grandiose.
This was what Wang Chong had seen in the bonfire, and it was the ultimate method Wang Chong had devised against Firmament Supreme!
