Rumble!
There was a deafening rumble, and w.a.n.g Chong could sense that it wasn’t just his dimension. The dimension that the Wushang Village Chief and the Demonic Emperor Old Man were in, the one that Zhangchou Jianqiong and the others were in, and even that ancient building at the bottom of the polar sea were all shuddering and showing signs of collapse.
This was a large-scale dimensional collapse. Once s.p.a.ce collapsed, the Demonic Emperor Old Man, Wushang Village Chief, and Zhangchou Jianqiong and the others would all be obliterated.
Not only that, the Celestial G.o.d Organization had clearly left behind some sort of immense seal in this area. When w.a.n.g Chong destroyed the giant teleportation gate, the Celestial G.o.d Organization’s seal had activated.
“Let’s go!”
Time was short, and w.a.n.g Chong jumped, disappearing from this s.p.a.ce as he made his way toward the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief.
But just when he was about to vanish, he sensed something and turned his head in shock.
Roooar!
Just when the teleportation gate was about to collapse, a black and brutal energy that was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with the desire to destroy all surged out from the other end of the gate.
Coupled with intense s.p.a.cetime ripples, a giant greenish-black hand seething with smoke emerged from the gate.
Roooar!
That greenish-black hand let out an indistinct roar that was packed with anger and unwillingness. It seemed to be doing all it could to repair this collapsing s.p.a.ce.
But the teleportation gate had already collapsed, and this s.p.a.ce was also on its way to oblivion. Anything it tried was too late.
A few seconds later, a powerful pull came from the other end of the gate, dragging back that giant hand.
At the final moment, all w.a.n.g Chong could see was drifting snowflakes and a silent world, and then not even that.
This entire process had taken less than a second, so quickly that it seemed like an illusion. But what he had seen in that briefest of moments had left w.a.n.g Chong stunned.
w.a.n.g Chong was certain that the giant greenish-black hand had come from the world on the other end of the teleportation gate, a special existence that w.a.n.g Chong had never before seen.
Countless thoughts ran through his mind.
But he quickly came to his senses. Compared to the origins of that hand, his master, the Wushang Village Chief, Zhangchou Jianqiong, and the others were more important.
There’s not much time left!
w.a.n.g Chong could tell that this entire dimension was extremely unstable. It would be at most three seconds until this entire place vanished into the void.
If they couldn’t escape before then, they would all be trapped here and pulverized into oblivion.
Not daring to stay any longer, w.a.n.g Chong disappeared and entered the previous dimension he had been in.
The moment he appeared, he saw that the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief were surrounded by the six half-step Grotto Heaven experts.
These six experts had been revived countless times, and under their constant barrage of attacks, the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief had consumed a great deal of Stellar Energy.
But now, the situation was entirely different.
“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”
“The cold wave’s origin was protected by the two Venerables and the giant idol. They lost?!”
The six half-step Grotto Heaven experts were ghastly pale and had completely lost the will to fight.
Moreover, the six of them were only able to exist because of the formations in this dimension.
These formations had now shattered, and with their foundation gone, they could no longer remain attached to their physical bodies.
As their souls parted from their bodies, their Stellar Energies rapidly drained away, their auras faded, and their hands dropped to their sides.
But unlike before, their souls began to rapidly collapse.
The moment w.a.n.g Chong destroyed the giant teleportation gate, these six peerless experts had lost the ability to fight.
“Master, go!”
w.a.n.g Chong’s gaze lingered on these six for the briefest of moments before he grabbed the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief and departed the dimension.
At the same time, in another dimension…
“This place is about to collapse!”
“The King of Foreign Lands succeeded?!”
This large s.p.a.ce was full of those bizarre multiplying sea monsters, far more than there had first been.
Whether it was Zhangchou Jianqiong, Yeon Gaesomun, or anyone else, they were all tired to the bone.
All of them were sporting injuries, with the fierce Khitan King even laid out unconscious on the floor.
But even though they were in dire straits and couldn’t escape, none of them feared death.
On the contrary, they felt relief and joy.
The s.p.a.ce collapsing meant that w.a.n.g Chong had succeeded.
Roooar!
The bizarre sea creatures seemed to sense the oncoming crisis, and they fell into disarray.
But still, many of them focused on Zhangchou Jianqiong’s group, b.e.s.t.i.a.l and bloodthirsty roars coming from their mouths.
Boom!
Just when the s.p.a.ce was about to collapse, ten-some sea creatures lunged at the group.
But everyone quickly sensed a familiar energy, and a moment later, they were swept up by silver Stellar Energy.
“w.a.n.g Chong!”
Everyone was delighted to see that familiar figure within the silver barrier.
“The teleportation gate has been destroyed and the cold wave has been taken care of. The Celestial G.o.d Organization’s seal is devouring this place, so we have to leave at once!”
With no time to say any more, w.a.n.g Chong navigated the silver barrier through the dimensions.
Rumble!
A great rumbling came from behind them. As w.a.n.g Chong was leading the group out, countless dimensions collapsed behind them, the destruction hot on their heels.
But in the end, w.a.n.g Chong was just a bit better.
After what seemed like an interminable second, w.a.n.g Chong led the group out of the maze of dimensions and back into that ancient building beneath the sea.
Boom!
Without the slightest hesitation, w.a.n.g Chong used a water movement technique to split the water and rapidly move toward the surface.
They emerged from the water far faster than they had descended.
A few seconds later, with a ma.s.sive splash, w.a.n.g Chong’s silver barrier appeared on the sh.o.r.es of the ice plain.
At almost the same time, the surface of the sea intensely shuddered. More than eighteen hundred meters below the surface, that ancient building exploded into countless pieces of debris.
With this, the Celestial G.o.d Organization’s base beneath the polar sea was gone.
Whoos.h.!.+
Standing once more on the bleak plain of ice, all of them emotionally sighed as if they had been freed from oppression.
Only those who had partic.i.p.ated in this journey to the north would truly know how extremely dangerous it was.
All of them had prepared for their lives to end back there.
But all of that was in the past.
There was something more important on their mind.
Within the silver barrier, Zhangchou Jianqiong looked up and said, “The cold wave has really pa.s.sed.”
When they first arrived at this polar ice plain, the sky had been completely concealed by a frenzied blizzard, but now, the storm had begun to die down.
Yeon Gaesomun looked up and sighed. “Those snow tornadoes have also disappeared.”
Those snow tornadoes that had harried them the entire way here had disappeared, leaving behind only turbulent streams of air as evidence of their existence.
The others said nothing, but they had the same expressions on their faces.
The snow and ice had not melted, but all of them could tell that it was much less cold.
At the very least, the cold wave was no longer ceaselessly pouring into this world.
The cold wave had truly been resolved!
They felt like a great burden had been lifted off their shoulders.
Ice of three feet was not formed in a single day, and it would probably take several months for the continent to start thawing.
“This matter has now been taken care of. Everyone, thank you for your efforts. We are now returning to Youzhou, as we still have many matters to take care of.”
w.a.n.g Chong waved his sleeve, an indifferent look on his face.
The teleportation gate had been closed, but the mess the cold wave had left would take a long time to clean up.
Just as w.a.n.g Chong was about to turn and begin the journey back, Eastern Turkic Great General Tiechi Bileli called out, “Your Highness!
“This matter has been resolved, yes?”
“What do you want to say?” w.a.n.g Chong bluntly asked.
“Your Highness, you said that the Celestial G.o.d Organization is an enormous faction, and Genesis Supreme was simply one of its members. Since we ruined their plan, they won’t be able to enact their Purification plan for at least a little while, yes?”
Tiechi Bileli looked hopefully at w.a.n.g Chong.
w.a.n.g Chong could see a deep unease in his expression.
w.a.n.g Chong slightly frowned, and as he looked around, he saw that Yeon Gaesomun, Ozmish Khagan, the Khitan King, and the Xi Queen were also extremely uneasy.
