Awooo!

Pained howls resonated through the battlefield. With the entry of the Behemoth Slayers and the King Apes, the balance of the battlefield began to rapidly shift.

This was particularly true when it came to Li Siye. The Invincible Great General was renowned near and far for his courage and fearlessness, and he was revered by all the soldiers. Thus, he was the only one besides Wang Chong who could boost the morale of the entire army.

“Kill!”

Countless soldiers began to strike back at the Celestial Army, their eyes shining with resolve. All of the elite armies of the continent joined this vicious battle.

The battle became abnormally intense!

Upon seeing this, all the Celestial Army soldiers became nervous. At this moment, each of the Doomsday Behemoths was crawling with King Apes and human experts.

The Doomsday Behemoths were not merely abnormally powerful. They were also an important symbol to the Celestial Army and the Celestial God Organization.

This was because the first Purification plan had been executed by the Doomsday Behemoths.

Roooar!

The Archaic Celestial Army soldiers roared as they abandoned their opponents and began to charge at the humans and King Apes on the eight Doomsday Behemoths.

In a flash, the two sides began to viciously battle with each other.

The King Apes and Archaic Celestial Army soldiers fiercely clashed, the Behemoth Slayers joining the battle as well. Meanwhile, under the frenzied assault, the eight Doomsday Behemoths began to somewhat panic, the nine heads beginning to randomly spit their flames into the air.

And things were far from over, for Wang Chong had not only prepared these King Apes in the last three years!

A few moments later, the earth rumbled as numerous figures that seemed somewhat similar to the Archaic Celestial Army soldiers appeared on the battlefield.

Just like the Archaic Celestial Army soldiers, they were about four to five hundred feet tall, and they wore thick armor that was reinforced with numerous inscriptions. Human soldiers seemed like ants compared to them.

Although they were somewhat similar to the Archaic Celestial Army, there was one huge difference.

Almost all of them had three heads and six arms!

Each of their arms was bursting with muscle, so thick that three or four adults would be needed to completely encircle them, and each of them had three heads growing from their neck. If one looked carefully, one would realize that these weren’t human faces. Shockingly, these were the heads of lions, panthers, or rhinos.

Their eyes were savage and bursting with a desire to destroy.

“What is this?”

Even Essence Supreme couldn’t help but be startled by the appearance of these terrifying and unknown creatures.

No one was more proficient in the technologies of creation, but even he had never thought about creating creatures like these.

These creatures were both human and inhuman, animal yet not animal. Moreover, what was going on with their arms and heads?

“How did he manage to do it?”

Grand Supreme stared in disbelief.

For this sort of humanoid creature, simply maintaining their rationality was very difficult, particularly with three heads. The powerful animal instinct would make it very difficult for them to maintain their rationality.

“It’s that Nightmare Beast controlling these creatures!” Essence Supreme suddenly said.

Others might not have been able to sense it, but as a similar mental existence, Essence Supreme had been able to immediately sense the aura of the Child of Destruction’s pet in these humanoid creatures.

The Nightmare Beast possessed immense amounts of Psychic Energy, and controlling minds had always been one of its basic abilities.

“All Fallen, move out!” Essence Supreme coldly said. “No matter what, we must win here, destroy this epoch, restart the world, and fulfill Heaven’s decree.”

“Yes, Venerable One!”

All of the Fallen immediately bowed upon hearing Essence Supreme’s order.

As the Fallen turned to the battlefield, their auras changed, a sharp killing intent and will to fight exploding from their bodies.

This enormous aura caused the space around them to distort!

Over its long history, the Celestial God Organization had accumulated many Fallen, and some Fallen were even close to Essence Supreme in terms of power.

This was a force that no one could ignore!

“Grand Supreme, Radiance Supreme, it’s time for us to move out! Victory is the only option! This epoch must be destroyed!” Essence Supreme firmly said.

Over the course of the battle, Essence Supreme’s face had gone from confident to grim.

This immense army, the King Apes, and these three-headed, six-armed monsters… That Child of Destruction and the humans of this epoch were far more prepared than they had anticipated, forcing the Celestial God Organization to use all its powers. For example, something like the Shadow Dragon Division had never appeared in past epochs.

Moreover, Heaven’s true body had emerged, but Heaven had yet to appear on the battlefield. This meant that the battle taking place in the depths of space was far fiercer and more difficult than imagined.

“Understood!”

To the left and right, Grand Supreme and Radiance Supreme nodded, their bodies beginning to rumble with Stellar Energy.

On the other end of the battlefield, Wang Zhongsi and the other commanders sensed this shift.

“Inform Ozmish’s group to ready for battle!” Wang Zhongsi suddenly said.

As he spoke, Wang Zhongsi spurred his horse and left the ranks. He headed to the front, his guards and subordinate generals following.

Farther off, Zhangchou Jianqiong, Gao Xianzhi, An Sishun, Tongluo Great General Abusi, Tibetan Great General We Tadra Khonglo, Mengshe Zhao Great General Duan Gequan… all of the top-class Great Generals of the continent began to slowly advance.

At the same time, the Demonic Emperor Old Man looked at the distant Essence Supreme and smiled.

“Village Chief, let’s get ready as well!”

“Mm!”

The Wushang Village Chief nodded and, together with the Demonic Emperor Old Man, began to walk atop the air.

No matter how intense the battle had been up until this point, neither of them had taken action. They had been waiting precisely for this moment.

Essence Supreme and the other Supremes were extremely strong. There needed to be someone to deal with them, to hold them down.

Yellow sands churned, the ground rumbled, and killing intent erupted as the two sides marshaled their forces, and the battle grew more and more intense.

The Great Tang had sent all of its soldiers, as had the Celestial God Organization.

All of the Celestial Army had joined the battle.

Buzz!

A powerful wave of spacetime energy rippled out, moving from north to south. On the battlefield, the halos of nearly one million soldiers suddenly grew unstable, flickering in and out of existence and causing the aura of the soldiers to plunge.

But before this ripple of energy could completely take effect, another wave of spacetime energy emerged from the south. The two waves collided and canceled each other out.

Above the battlefield, Essence Supreme’s face turned cold. He looked over to where, several dozen feet away, a black-robed figure had appeared. It was the Demonic Emperor Old Man.

The Demonic Emperor Old Man looked back and asked, “Essence Supreme?”

“Hmph, a mere ant!”

Essence Supreme coldly snorted with obvious disdain and contempt in his eyes.

“Under the Great Dao, all living beings are ants. Even someone like you, who has lived in foolishness for eons, will eventually end up the same way, as naught but dust,” the Demonic Emperor Old Man casually said, his expression calm and relaxed.

These words made Essence Supreme grimace.

“The glow of a firefly is light, as is the light of the sun and moon. When this god came to power, you ants were just motes of dust in this world. This god would like to see just how an ant like you can oppose this god!”

Essence Supreme’s eyes gleamed with killing intent.

“Please!”

The Demonic Emperor Old Man was unperturbed by Essence Supreme’s threat, extending a hand as he indifferently spoke.

A moment later, in an explosion of spacetime energy, the two of them almost simultaneously disappeared.

Battles between Grotto Heaven experts were far beyond what ordinary mortals could imagine. In a few moments, the two of them had entered the depths of spacetime for their savage battle.

On the other side of the battlefield, in a gust of wind, two other figures had met.

On one side was Grand Supreme, and on the other was the Wushang Village Chief.

“Even you managed to break into the Grotto Heaven realm!”

Grand Supreme looked at the Wushang Village Chief with some shock on his face.

Their connection to the Child of Prophecy had made the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief important targets of attention for the Celestial God Organization.

Three years ago, neither of them had reached the Grotto Heaven realm, but now, they had both broken through. Grand Supreme couldn’t help but be shocked.

“That was then, and this is now! This is the proper way of things!” the Wushang Village Chief calmly said.

“Hmph, a mantis daring to try and stop the carriage! You only just stepped into the Grotto Heaven realm. Let me see what is giving you the audacity to say such words!”

As he spoke, Grand Supreme raised a hand, and a black vortex pulsing with spacetime energy hurtled toward the Wushang Village Chief.

As he attacked, a glassy spacetime barrier instantly surrounded the Wushang Village Chief, holding him fast within.

Bang!

But a moment later, a spacetime pulse that was just as powerful erupted from the Wushang Village Chief’s body. Grand Supreme’s spacetime energy instantly crumbled, and the Wushang Village Chief swept up Grand Supreme in his spacetime energy.

A moment later, the two of them had vanished into the void.

The clash of Grotto Heaven realm experts contained simply too much power. Just like the Demonic Emperor Old Man, the Wushang Village Chief had chosen to drag his opponent into the depths of spacetime to avoid the battle affecting the battlefield.

“Radiance Supreme? That’s your name, right!?”

Li Xuantu was contending against Radiance Supreme.

Unlike the others, Li Xuantu had broken into the Grotto Heaven realm a long time ago, and he also had the memories from other Supremes that Wang Chong had shared with him, including the memories and experiences of Master Guangcheng. This had filled in his only flaw.

Though he was facing one of the Supremes, Li Xuantu was not at all afraid.

Genesis Supreme had been ranked above Grand Supreme, but Li Xuantu had faced him without fear, so why should he fear Radiance Supreme?

“You’re too arrogant! This god has never before seen such an arrogant human!”

Radiance Supreme was enraged by Li Xuantu’s brash attitude.

“Hahaha, this is arrogance? There will be even more of it soon. Let this human teach you self-proclaimed gods a harsh lesson!”

Li Xuantu laughed, and as he spoke, he made the first attack.

Boomboomboom!

The two of them exchanged several blows in the space of a few seconds, destructive energy erupting from their bodies. Very quickly, a spacetime passage opened, and the two of them disappeared into it.
