Chapter 2370 - The Child of Prophecy! (1/2)

“Forget it. We will end this obstinance once and for all.”

Centered on the Celestial Palace, countless dimensions exploded. On the ground, the capital shuddered. Thirty percent of the capital’s population was still standing, but at this moment, an invisible energy swept through the capital.

Thump! Thump! Thump! In the blink of an eye, countless people fell over like toppling pillars.

In less than a second, the remaining thirty percent of the capital’s population collapsed, their souls and energy turning into golden light and shooting into the sky, joining the rest of the capital in an enormous pillar of golden light that ascended toward the Celestial Palace.

Buzz!

This sight made everyone in the Celestial Emperor Palace turn ghastly pale.

Too late!

Heaven had successfully extracted the souls and essence blood of the three million people in the capital, and there was no longer any means of stopping him.

Heaven was already enormously powerful, and now that he had extracted all this energy from the people on the ground, the breach of the golden barrier around the Celestial Emperor Palace was imminent.

Boom!

That power created from the lives of so many people arrived much faster than anticipated, and in a flash, an enormous golden light streaked toward the barrier like a comet.

This terrifying energy painted everything gold, and the Celestial Emperor Palace was on the verge of being completely swallowed up by the golden light.

Finally, there was a world-shaking boom. When the golden torrent made impact, the barrier around the Celestial Emperor Palace instantly shattered.

“Aaagh!”

Li Xuantu vomited blood, the powerful backlash sending him flying backward.

Master Guangcheng and Little Nightmare were also sent flying back, despair in their eyes.

“It’s over! In the end, we still weren’t able to hold! Today is truly the day that the House of Li is made extinct!”

Li Xuantu felt incredible heartache.

This was not merely a battle between them and Heaven, but a war between the world and Heaven. Their defeat meant that the end of the world was imminent. Li Xuantu had never imagined that even his best efforts were not enough to avert the world’s destruction.

“Ants, be destroyed!”

Heaven’s cold and callous voice resounded through the numerous dimensions like booming thunder. Higher universal energy transformed into a golden sea and converged on the Celestial Emperor Palace from all sides.

Everything was settled. Both Li Xuantu and Master Guangcheng were at the end of their rope, motes of dust before this tsunami of destructive energy.

The three of them were like guttering candles in the wind, but just when Heaven was about to kill them…

Bang!

The fabric of space trembled, and a vast sea of energy erupted from the Celestial Emperor Palace, blocking the golden sea.

A cold and aloof voice came from the Celestial Emperor Palace. “Heaven, you’ve lost.”

Heaven’s eyes constricted like he had been jabbed by a needle, a nasty scowl appearing on his face.

“Child of Destruction?

“This is impossible!”

Heaven’s face turned grim as he looked at the figure walking out of the Celestial Emperor Palace.

“Wang Chong!”

“Master!”

No one was more shocked and elated than Li Xuantu and the others.

The barrier had been broken, and Li Xuantu and the others had believed that they were dead. But to their surprise, Wang Chong had emerged and almost miraculously stopped Heaven’s attack.

“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”

Heaven’s mind was in turmoil. He stared at Wang Chong, who appeared to have changed little on the surface. But Heaven could sense that Wang Chong’s aura had experienced a complete transformation.

Moreover, Wang Chong’s strength, even if he had inherited Xuanyuan’s power, should not have been enough to contend against him. Yet in that strike, Heaven had clearly sensed some of the Celestial Palace’s power.

But how was that possible?

“Impossible! We do not believe it! Wang Chong, what does it matter if you managed to stop one strike? We have all of the Celestial Palace’s power under Our command to totally destroy you.”

Heaven’s eyes turned vicious, and he gathered all of the power of the Celestial Palace, an unimaginable energy that had been gathered over thousands of years, converging all of it on Wang Chong and Li Xuantu.

This attack was also infused with spatial energy so that Wang Chong had no hope of escaping.

But Wang Chong was unflustered in the face of Heaven’s shocking attack.
