Supreme King!

Countless people instantly recognized the man who had arisen from the Supreme King Residence. If it was not Wang Chong, who else could it be?

Bang!

The entire capital exploded with cheers, like a seething ocean.
Three years!
After a long time, Wang Chong had finally emerged, revealing his formidable cultivation at the crucial moment and blocking Heaven’s terrifying attack.
The crowd cheered as loudly as they could. In the Great Tang, Wang Chong represented a sort of belief, a conviction. As long as Wang Chong was here, as long as the Supreme King was here, everyone firmly believed that they could overcome any problem.

Wonderful!

Nearby, King Song and Zhangchou Jianqiong looked with bright eyes at that familiar figures, their hearts excited.
From his own location, when Li Xuantu saw Wang Chong, his tense body suddenly relaxed, a smile appearing on his face.

You’re finally here… 
Li Xuantu mentally remarked.
Though he didn’t know what exactly about Wang Chong had changed, he could sense that Wang Chong was several times stronger than he was three years ago. This was not all. When Wang Chong struck out, he had been able to clearly sense that there was a special energy in the attack that did not belong to the Grotto Heaven realm.
Even he did not know how strong Wang Chong was, but he could definitely be described as ‘unfathomable’.
In the Supreme King Residence, Little Nightmare looked up, its mind much calmer now.
But at this moment, no one came forward to disturb Wang Chong. Everyone knew that this moment belonged to Wang Chong and Heaven!

Whoosh!

Though the winds surged restlessly around him, Wang Chong focused his bright eyes on that powerful mental presence in the thunderclouds.
What should come had come!
Wang Chong could sense that Heaven was more powerful than ever before!

Heaven, you’ve finally appeared!
Wang Chong said as he stared upward, his voice cold and emotionless.
He had been preparing for this day for three whole years.
Whether it was for the world or himself, he did not care if he had to oppose the gods.

Hahaha!

Heaven’s loud laughter resounded through the clouds.The dimming lightning blazed to life once more, the light filling the capital.

Puny human, insignificant lifeform, Wang Chong, do you really think you can save them? We have given you time, and the day of final judgment has come. Have you readied yourself for your destruction?

Everyone paled at Heaven’s words. This was a naked threat, and also the clarion call for the final war. It was very obvious that Heaven had also readied himself for this war.
Just like with countless other civilizations, he would once more destroy this world and build a new civilization, a puppet civilization!

You won’t succeed! So long as I’m here, you won’t be able to do anything. All of this is just your fantasy.

Wang Chong’s voice resounded through the world, his voice clearly reaching the ears of everyone in the capital. His voice was calm, but abnormally resolved.

Heaven, are you ready to meet your ultimate fate? You will not destroy another civilization! Everything will end here. This time, there will be no more seals. All that awaits you is your final destruction!

Wang Chong’s voice rumbled like thunder, penetrating through the clouds and into the depths of the heavens.
The thunderclouds fell silent at Wang Chong’s words, and a hint of anger gradually began to radiate from them. But a moment later, everything returned to normal.

Fool! Do you really think that you’re the Child of Prophecy? Come, then! One month from now, on the Turkic steppe, We will be waiting for you. Let us see which way this world will go!

Heaven’s cold laughter resounded through the clouds, The thunderclouds and lightning instantly receded toward the north, and that unimaginably powerful mental presence in the depths of the clouds also swiftly vanished into the depths of spacetime.

Bang!

A few moments later, at the sealing ground, that golden pillar of blazing lightning returned, descending from the heavens and crashing into the ground.
At that moment, it appeared like a sun had risen from the center of the sealing ground, and in the center of this blinding sun was a tall and slender figure exuding a divine aura and vast sea of energy that would instill awe and reverence in anyone.
But in a flash, the crowd began to cheer!

Celestial Emperor!


Celestial Emperor!


Celestial Emperor!

The crowd madly roared to the heavens.

Paying respects to the Celestial Emperor!

At the front of the crowd, Essence Supreme respectfully prostrated, and then everyone else prostrated before Heaven.
The moment they had been waiting for had finally come!
But in the center of the sealing ground, Heaven’s expression was extremely calm.

Pass on Our decree! Mobilize the Celestial Army, and get ready! It is time for the ultimate war, to bring an end to this civilization!


Bang!

Heaven rose from the ground and vanished from this place.

Bang!

The crowd cheered as if they were celebrating some grand occasion, and they began to leave the sealing ground.
In another dimension that was located very close to the sealing ground, golden light overflowed the dimension, and in this golden light, numerous figures and flying flags could be seen. These were the golden-armored soldiers of the mighty Celestial Army.

Move out!

As this order was given, a golden horn blared, and the countless soldiers of the Celestial Army began to surge like a tide toward the site of the final battleground.
……
Far to the north, in the region of the Turkic steppe…

Bang!

An unimaginably vast energy wrapped in golden light plummeted from the heavens and smashed into the ground, shaking the entire steppe.
A few moments later, countless divine characters rose from the ground. 
Rumble!
 A moment later, from east to west, rising from the Goguryeo Peninsula to the east and ending in the Caspian Sea to the west, around the empire of Fulin, a glassy barrier rose up, dividing the continent in two.
This was the final battlefield that Heaven had decided on!
……
At the same time, in the vast capital, the sky had cleared up with Heaven’s departure.

Whoosh!

In a flash of light, Wang Chong descended from the sky, wearing a white robe.
As Wang Chong landed on the ground, a deep and elderly voice came from behind him.
The day has finally come!

After one hundred years, Emperor Taizong’s words really came true!

Humanity cannot lose! The Great Tang cannot lose! No matter what, we must put an end to this sort of fate!

About five steps away, several elderly figures with graying hair had appeared.
While these people appeared old, their movements naturally exuded a domineering and tyrannical atmosphere. It was obvious that when they were young, they had been world-shaking hegemons who could rebuke the heavens and the earth.
If Crown Prince’s Junior Guardian Wang Zhongsi had been here, he would have undoubtedly been shaken by these figures.
Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Xu Shiji!
These were the renowned Great Generals of Emperor Taizong’s era, Supreme Marshals of the Central Plains who had commanded a million soldiers. To the common people, these were legendary existences who had been dead for decades.
But they still lived, and from their energetic expressions, they were still in their prime. However, it was not just them; even Hou Junji from the Rebellion of the Three Princes was with them.
After the death of Taizong, they had vanished without a trace and had remained in hiding, no one knowing what they were up to. But at this moment, now that Heaven had appeared, they had decided to stop hiding.
Wang Chong stood in front of them, not at all surprised by their appearance.
While Heaven’s existence was a secret, he was not completely unknown. But to Wang Chong’s great surprise, one hundred years ago, Taizong had already sensed Heaven’s existence and had even interacted with him.
Wang Chong did not know how Taizong had managed to learn so much. Perhaps there were texts left behind from the Sui, or maybe clues from even earlier, but regardless, before his death, Emperor Taizong had left behind a back-up measure: his faithful subjects, Cheng Yaojin and company.
They existed for only one purpose: to deal with Heaven and the Celestial God Organization, and that calamity that Emperor Taizong had predicted one hundred years ago.
From a certain perspective, they were swordbearers of the Great Tang, and they safeguarded all information concerning Heaven. Even the Sage Emperor had obtained some of his information on Heaven from them.
When Wang Chong had first learned about this, he had been greatly shaken.
Even so, Wang Chong felt a natural affection for these people, because these were his seniors from the apocalyptic era, the seniors who had entrusted the world to him.
At their first meeting, Wang Chong had already recognized them.
Wang Chong turned to them and respectfully said,
Seniors, the war will begin soon. I will have to trouble you.


So long as the Supreme King still finds some worth in these old bones, what reason do we have to refuse? At stake is the prosperity or decline of the realm, the death or survival of the world. We will not rest until death!

They sternly added,
Supreme King, we will need to borrow your token for a moment.

Wang Chong nodded, immediately taking his token from his waist and throwing it over.

Little White Ape, let’s go.

After calling out to Hou Junji, they did not walk out from the estate, inside vanishing into the grounds of the Supreme King Residence.

Whoosh!

Not long after they had disappeared, King Song, Zhangchou Jianqiong, Li Xuantu, Li Xuanyi, Bai Hanzhou… almost all the top-class existences of the capital began to converge on Wang Chong.

Chong-er.

Several seconds later, in a flash of light, the Demonic Emperor Old Man, the Wushang Village Chief, and Su Zhengchen flew through the air to appear in front of Wang Chong.
