Chapter 2338 - Destinys Prisoner! (1/2)

“Haaah…”

Master Guangcheng could only sigh in response to Little Nightmare’s question, a complicated tone to his voice.

“Some matters are in the past, and the truth is no longer important. The matter of Little Grass can no longer be altered, which is one of my greatest regrets.”

As Master Guangcheng spoke, there was deep sorrow on his face.

Master Guangcheng was the Yellow Emperor’s teacher, and even after a long time, there still existed a deep affection between them, which was obvious even to a bystander like Wang Chong.

Wang Chong got straight to the point. “Senior, what is the Celestial Palace? How can I undo the Celestial Palace and break Heaven’s plan?”

Master Guangcheng slightly frowned. It was clearly rather impolite for Wang Chong to interrupt his conversation with Little Nightmare, but Wang Chong seemed unperturbed, and he met Master Guangcheng’s gaze without backing down.

“The Celestial Palace’s range of influence will grow larger and larger, and soon, Heaven will become extremely strong and more difficult to deal with. We don’t have much time left!”

Wang Chong didn’t have much time!

His mother, little sister, older brothers, and all members of the Wang Family Residence were in a coma, and in a few more days, their souls would completely disperse.

More and more people in the capital were appearing dull and unfocused, even forgetting who they were or where they lived.

Wang Chong could tell that the Celestial Palace had entered a new phase, and it wouldn’t be long before everyone in the capital was just a toy for Heaven.

Master Guangcheng looked at Little Nightmare’s projection for a few moments before finally speaking, his hard and aloof face softening somewhat.

“For Little Nightmare’s sake, I’ll tell you a few things.”

This was not done out of deference for Wang Chong, but for Little Nightmare. After all, Wang Chong had shown kindness to Little Nightmare, so Master Guangcheng could not treat him like a complete stranger.

Buzz!

Before Wang Chong could react, a light green finger reached out and touched the center of Wang Chong’s forehead. Despite Wang Chong’s cultivation, he was completely unable to avoid it.

“Senior, this is…”

Wang Chong was astonished.

Master Guangcheng did not respond. As Wang Chong spoke, boom! The world around him seemed to collapse, and a moment later, Wang Chong realized that he was looking at the capital.

But he was looking at the capital from what appeared to be in the air.

“There is one thing that you’re right about. You truly do not have much time left. In truth, no matter what you do, it is already too late.”

Master Guangcheng’s indifferent voice was like an ancient well as it rang out.

Wang Chong’s brows locked together, but just when he was about to ask, he saw something different.

Golden light!

Golden light as viscous as water was flowing out from the center of the capital, spreading out like the roots of a tree to every corner of the city.

Wang Chong was initially confused, wondering what Master Guangcheng was showing him, but a moment later, he noticed that the golden light was seeping into the countless denizens of the capital, and these people had unfocused gazes. He instantly understood what was going on.

“This is the Celestial Palace’s power?!” Wang Chong hesitantly said, his mind shaken.

“Mm!”

Master Guangcheng again spoke, his voice still aloof and emotionless.

“It is precisely because of this golden light that Heaven can so easily control the memories of others and wipe out the existence of any other person. Heaven’s power already covers seventy percent of the capital and has even crept into the rest of the Central Plains.

“There is no changing this. The Celestial Palace has already entered its last phase and cannot be destroyed. Prepare yourself for the worst-case scenario!”

Master Guangcheng’s words made Wang Chong’s heart sink to rock bottom.

“Impossible! There has to be a way!”

Wang Chong’s body trembled as he shouted in disbelief.

“The Celestial Palace is Heaven’s personal ritual tool. There was no stopping it once he activated it. In another ten days, the entire capital will become an offering, and everyone living in the city will be absorbed to become the power of the Celestial Palace.”

“What!?”

Even Little Nightmare was shocked by this. The capital was the center of the continent, and it had people from other countries living in it as well. It currently had a population of several million.

Master Guangcheng was saying that Heaven had activated the Celestial Palace in the capital not merely to deal with Wang Chong, but also to slaughter the several million inhabitants of the capital, to make them a sacrificial offering!

“There are some things that we cannot change.”

Master Guangcheng paused for a few moments before slowly revealing Heaven’s secrets.

“This isn’t the first time Heaven has activated the Celestial Palace. Every few epochs, Heaven will activate the Celestial Palace. This is the sixth time.
