Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme were much worse for wear and had seemingly been badly wounded. Clearly, they had been on the losing side of their fights against Li Xuantu and the Wushang Village Chief.
“What is there to be afraid of? Grand Supreme, Radiance Supreme, can you two idiots still not tell what the situation is?”
Loud laughter rang out, but it was coming from someone else, not Unity Supreme.
Not far from Unity Supreme’s location, ripples appeared in the air, and out of the ripples stepped an armored figure surrounded by a storm of energy.
Luo Supreme!
Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme looked like they had seen a ghost.
“Didn’t you leave for the depths of s.p.a.cetime? How are you here?!”
Unity Supreme was hard enough to deal with. They had not expected Luo Supreme to return and appear on the battlefield at a crucial moment like this.
For Essence Supreme’s group, this was a blizzard atop an avalanche.
“Haha, that was then and this is now. When you hunted me down in my divine kingdom, you probably didn’t imagine a sight like this!”
Luo Supreme laughed. He truly had left, but how could he not come to such an important occasion as this?
“All the people of my divine kingdom, come out! Now is the time for revenge!”
Luo Supreme opened his arms, and as his smug voice resounded, a dark-colored s.p.a.cetime vortex appeared behind him, and his divine warriors began to emerge in orderly ranks.
Upon seeing this, Essence Supreme grimaced.
The only advantage the Celestial G.o.d Organization had at this time was the numerous Fallen, and the arrival of Luo Supreme’s divine warriors could only be considered bad news.
Unlike the now-deceased Origin Supreme in Sindhu, Luo Supreme had always played the part of a G.o.d. He himself was powerful, but he had also trained up a large number of divine warriors. While they couldn’t compare to the Celestial G.o.d Organization, their mere presence was enough to affect the battle.
Luo Supreme turned to Unity Supreme and said, “Unity Supreme, if you do something, do it to the finis.h.!.+ Since you’ve decided to become enemies with Heaven, there’s no need to hold back. You should send out the experts of your Great Snow Mountain Holy Temple as well!”
They were both Supremes, and they were friends who had known each other for many years. Though it had been a very long time since their last meeting, Luo Supreme did not seem the slightest bit estranged.
Unity Supreme simply nodded in reply.
“For this epoch, for all living beings of the world, it must be done!”
As Unity Supreme spoke, a ma.s.sive s.p.a.cetime door appeared behind him, and in the blink of an eye, numerous experts of the Great Snow Mountain Holy Temple walked out.
The ones wearing armor were mortal martial artists who trained in the Great Snow Mountain Holy Temple, while some of them were experts belonging to the Great Snow Mountain Holy Temple.
Though Unity Supreme kept to his own corner of the world, he had trained numerous experts over the years. All of them were pulsing with power, and some of them had weak pulses of s.p.a.cetime energy, evidence that they were already half-step Grotto Heaven realm experts.
In terms of strength, they might even be comparable to the Fallen.
The sight of all these experts from the Great Snow Mountain Holy Temple appearing made Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, and Radiance Supreme nastily scowl.
With the entrance of Unity Supreme and Luo Supreme, almost all of the world’s strength was gathered, and Essence Supreme and the Celestial G.o.d Organization were now in an extremely bad state.
“Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, Radiance Supreme, it’s over. This epoch is no longer yours, so just submit yourselves to capture. In this way, I might be able to consider our former friends.h.i.+p,” Unity Supreme calmly said.
“Impossible! The outcome is still undecided!”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Heaven’s true body is already free! For daring to oppose Heaven, all of you will die!”
The three of them were enraged. Before Unity Supreme could strike, they preempted him, fiercely roaring.
Bang!
Three destructive streams of universal energy howled out, the fabric of s.p.a.ce trembling as the attacks swept toward Unity Supreme and Luo Supreme.
With Luo Supreme’s appearance, Essence Supreme’s group was now heavily outnumbered. The three of them had linked their minds, so they had clearly decided that it would be better to defeat Unity Supreme and Luo Supreme individually before they could join together with the others.
But though the trio had reacted quickly, their enemy was still faster. A split-second later, Unity Supreme, Li Xuantu, the Wushang Village Chief, the Demonic Emperor Old Man, and Li Xuantu—five Grotto Heaven realm experts—attacked at once, striking even faster than Essence Supreme’s group.
The trio’s reaction had been predicted from the very start.
Bang!
With a ma.s.sive explosion, a shockwave of energy engulfed the five Grotto Heaven realm experts.
A few moments later, when the dust settled, Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, and Radiance Supreme were nowhere to be seen. All that was left was some bloodstains on the ground.
In the air, Unity Supreme and the other four experts seemed a little out of breath, but from the final result, it was clear that the five of them were the victors.
Unity Supreme put his palms together and said, “Everyone, Essence Supreme and the other two were once my friends. With their Grotto Heaven Cores broken, they no longer present a threat. I will take them back to the Great Snow Mountain Holy Temple and seal them beneath the ground so that they never appear again.”
If one looked closely, one would notice a ball of hazy light floating in front of him. Inside this ball were three human figures the size of fingernails. These were none other than Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, and Radiance Supreme.
Their faces were pale, their expressions dejected, and their auras in utter disarray. They had been sealed within this ball of light through Unity Supreme’s s.p.a.cetime power.
“Unity Supreme, you traitors, this isn’t over! Everything you have done is pointless. Heaven will utterly destroy all of you!” Essence Supreme’s voice came from inside, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with venom.
“Haaa, the three of you are still so stubborn in your folly. No matter what happens in the future, it will have nothing to do with you.”
Unity Supreme sighed, shaking his head. After a pause, he added, “Moreover, Heaven is not guaranteed to win!”
These last words left Essence Supreme’s group utterly speechless.
The Divine Martial realm was without peer!
Heaven’s original body had emerged, bolstering the Celestial G.o.d Organization’s strength. They had all believed that Heaven’s terrifying strength would be more than enough to deal with w.a.n.g Chong. However, the battle had been going on for some time now, so long that even Unity Supreme had appeared. That Heaven had yet to appear clearly boded ill.
Raaaah!
As they were speaking, a plaintive howl came from the battlefield. Essence Supreme and the other two turned in shock and saw an enormous creature spewing thick flames, but a few moments later, it let out a dying screech and toppled over.
Whoos.h.!.+
Flames erupted from the spine of the Doomsday Behemoth, and a blazing arm made of lava emerged from inside. A few moments later, the surging flames condensed into the ma.s.sive form of the Ifrit King, standing tall.
At its feet was the corpse of that Doomsday Behemoth, and it only served to make the Ifrit King appear all the mightier.
One down!
It had only taken a short while for the Ifrit King to use its prodigious strength to kill a Doomsday Behemoth.
Raaaa!
After this victory, the Ifrit King opened its mouth and let out a heaven-shaking roar, as if it was expressing the joy in its heart. On the other side, Essence Supreme and his companions had ashen expressions.
They knew how strong the Doomsday Behemoths were, but not long after the battle had begun, one of them had lost, and was now a burning corpse.
The Ifrit King was the first opponent in countless epochs that was capable of countering the Doomsday Behemoths.
Flames burned on the battlefield, smoke rising into the air, and the cries of battle raising a great din. The Nine Provinces Universal Formation continued to grind away, and the weakened Celestial Army soldiers were cut down with frightening speed, seemingly on the verge of collapse.
This mighty and powerful Celestial Army had destroyed world after world, but in this epoch, it had encountered an unprecedented setback. If this continued, it was completely possible for the Celestial Army to be completely lost.
The Demonic Emperor Old Man stepped forward and said, “Everyone, Essence Supreme’s group has been defeated, and the Celestial Army will probably be defeated soon. But Essence Supreme was right about one thing. Heaven remains a major threat. Even if we win the war on the ground, if we can’t defeat Heaven, all of our efforts will have been for naught. We need to gather up all our strength to fight against Heaven and end this war!”
“They’ve already entered the depths of s.p.a.cetime, beyond our sensory range,” Unity Supreme said, though he did not reject the notion. “Can you find their location?”
Heaven was known as the strongest person in the world. While w.a.n.g Chong was powerful, he was not truly in the Divine Martial realm and might not be a match for Heaven. Moreover, the fact that the two of them had been fighting for so long was not a good sign.
“I can!” Su Zhengchen said, immediately rising from his horse and flying into the air.
“Everything is as w.a.n.g Chong predicted. He has already made arrangements. We only need to follow the mark he left behind to reach the area he is battling Heaven in.”
Su Zhengchen was naturally referring to the mental brand that w.a.n.g Chong had left behind.
Unity Supreme and Luo Supreme were surprised to hear this.
“Haha, it matches that kid’s style!”
Luo Supreme clapped his hands and laughed.
“We still have a little time. Let’s sweep up the battlefield and then join the battle against Heaven!”
Li Xuantu looked down at the battle still taking place as he spoke.
Everyone nodded. No matter what, they could not give the Celestial G.o.d Organization and the Celestial Army any chance.
A moment later, they attacked together.
Explosions shook the heavens!
