The Human Emperor Chapter 2418

Chapter 2418 - Ten Stones of Destiny!

Chapter 2418: Ten Stones of Destiny!

Wang Chong was his eternal enemy, whether in this life or the last. An Lushan had died at his hands in both this life and the last, with his self from this world even being abused to death.

But what did it matter?

In the end, everything would once more be turned to dust. What could be better than giving one’s opponent hope and then destroying everything again?

An Lushan was immersing himself in the ecstasy.

Heaven stepped forward and suddenly said, “Wang Chong, your death is near, so We will let you go understanding what has transpired.

“We actually must thank you. At the time, We only thought of An Lushan as the Child of the World, someone with secrets, but you gave Us a pleasant surprise. After fusing with his energy, We succeeded in breaking the wall between the two worlds.

“After entering that world, We did one thing. With the foundational power of the world obtained from the Child of the World, We succeeded in defeating this world’s god of the otherworldly invaders and taking his body.”

Buzz!

As Heaven spoke, the form of that massive otherworldly invader appeared behind him. Though it was just an illusion, it exuded an incredible power.

“!!!”

Everyone was so stunned that they couldn’t speak.

The god of the world of the otherworldly invaders?!

No one had imagined that Heaven would be able to occupy the body of the otherworldly invader god.

“…We finally did what We had failed to accomplish for eons. Now, the otherworldly invaders are Our army!”

Heaven’s voice was brimming with energy and enthusiasm.

The winds howled, and the entire world seemed to tremble under his feet.

Now was when he was truly at his strongest. Was there anyone in the universe who could oppose him?

The mood on the battlefield was so heavy as to be suffocating.

“Wang Chong, We already told you that the physical body was just a vessel for the soul. So long as the soul remains, life can continue for eternity. Alas, you are restricted to your physical body and could never understand this.”

Heaven grinned.

All was quiet, nobody saying a word. All of this was simply too surprising.

“Wang Chong, you truly made Us take another look at you. When We did all this, no one knew, not even Essence Supreme. With Our abilities, We could have mobilized all of the otherworldly invader army to attack the human world, but We recalled that prophecy, so We decided to be cautious.

“We left behind our physical body, making what was the original body into an avatar. Though it was an avatar, it was Our original physical body, so it was still incredibly powerful, still at the Divine Martial realm. We did this out of caution, in case something happened, but We had no idea that all of it would be necessary.”

As Heaven spoke, he laughed, not at all appearing dejected or angered.

“The prophecy has been fulfilled. Child of Prophecy, congratulations. You have successfully killed the Celestial Emperor. Starting from now, nothing is left to bind Us!”

Heaven heartily laughed, his voice dripping with disdain.

What did destiny matter?

What did the prophecy matter?

They were all just his playthings!

The prophecy had been fulfilled, so it meant nothing now.

“Heaven, don’t celebrate too soon. No matter what you do or how powerful you are, someone will always stand up to stop your mad acts. Even if it’s not me, there will be someone else,” Wang Chong sternly said.

“Hahaha, is that so?”

Heaven laughed, not taking Wang Chong’s words to heart.

But a moment later, the laughter stopped, and Heaven turned to glare at Wang Chong, his eyes ice-cold.

“Child of Prophecy, We do not care if there will be anyone to stop Us in the future. This epoch is bound to be destroyed, and all of you will die.

“We will let you experience true despair!”

Heaven spread out his arms, and his eyes suddenly turned red. Black smoke flooded out of his body, spreading thick death energy across the entire world.

Bang!

With a massive boom, the ground began to shudder, and the otherworldly invader army waiting behind the spacetime passage suddenly charged forward, their horses neighing as they rushed into the human world.

“Accept your ultimate destruction!”

Heaven’s voice boomed like thunder as the endless otherworldly invader army flooded into the continent.

Rumble! Frost began to rapidly spread across the ground.

Besides that, the otherworldly invader army was clearly divided into several different groups. As each group advanced, the earth shuddered and crumbled, lava gushing out from the cracks. The foundations of the world were clearly being shaken.

“Careful!”

“Take up formation!”

Frantic cries resounded as the tension soared.

The human army swiftly took formation, reestablishing its defense lines. The Nine Provinces Universal Formation reactivated, enclosing the army in the power of the earth veins.

“Is this the apocalypse His Highness spoke of?”

Li Siye gripped his sword, his chest heaving up and down. The battle with the Doomsday Behemoths had greatly drained him, but even so, he tightly held his sword, his expression firm with resolve.

Li Siye was not the only one. All of the soldiers were exhausted from the battle with the Celestial Army and the men in black, but none of them drew back in the face of the otherworldly invaders.

“Fight! Fight! Fight!”

The air was filled with war cries as the human soldiers readied for battle.

“The Great Tang is invincible!”

In the middle of the human army, the Nine Dragon Blood War Banner unfurled, and beneath the war banner were the old vassals from Taizong’s era: Cheng Yaojin, Xu Shiji, Hou Junji… All of them stood like imposing mountains, their powerful halos spreading across the army.

All of them had somewhat pale complexions. In the earlier battle with the Celestial Army, they had exhausted themselves both physically and in terms of Stellar Energy. But as the otherworldly invader army swept toward them, all of them once more straightened up, becoming the backbone of the army.

The fate of the world would be decided here. The only choice was to battle to the death!

On the other end…

“Go!”

Just as before, Wang Chong’s eyes flashed with light as he lunged at Heaven.

Shoot the horse to shoot the man and capture the king to capture the underlings!

Heaven was now the master of the otherworldly invaders. So long as he could defeat him, he could crush the otherworldly invaders’ offensive.

“Everyone, get around me!”

Wang Chong’s call resounded through the battlefield.

Everyone was tired from the earlier battle, their strength running out, but now was far from the moment to despair. Until the final moment, even if he had lost everything, he would never give up.

Bang!

As Wang Chong lunged forward, a mysterious golden character appeared on his forehead, pulsing with the power of the earth.

“Dao of Yin Yang!”

As Wang Chong bellowed, a massive Yin Yang diagram appeared around Wang Chong, sweeping over the battlefield and encompassing Unity Supreme, Luo Supreme, the Demonic Emperor Old Man, the Wushang Village Chief, Su Zhengchen, Li Xuantu, and all the other top-class experts.

As he took action, the Turkic steppe—no, the entire continent—began to fiercely shudder. Boundless energy surged out of the earth veins and rapidly passed through Wang Chong’s body, which served as an intermediary by using the Dao of Yin Yang, allowing him to pass the energy to all the top-class experts.

As this earth vein energy poured in, the exhausted experts rapidly began to recover.

“Master Guangcheng’s earth vein energy?” Heaven’s voice suddenly resounded. He had a smirk on his lips, having instantly seen what Wang Chong was doing.

He was clearly using the brand Master Guangcheng had left with him to harness the power of the earth veins to restore their lost Stellar Energy.

“A pity! A pity! You thought We would give you that chance? Naive!”

Heaven coldly laughed, and as he swept his gaze over his foes, he raised his right arm high into the air.

Boom!

In the blink of an eye, a thick cloud of death energy surged out from Heaven’s feet and into the ground.

This energy was chaotic, dark, and corroding, imbued with a destructive nature. As it disappeared into the depths of the steppe, there was a large boom, and then a massive fissure appeared across the Turkic steppe as if a giant axe had come down, spanning from east to west, essentially cutting the steppe into two.

And this was not all.

As he raised his right arm, several thick, purple-black lightning bolts descended on various parts of the continent.

Mountains toppled and rivers ran dry.

Beneath the millions of soldiers of the human army, the dazzling halos instantly shattered, and everyone felt the immense energy bolstering them fade away.

Without the power of the earth veins, the human army instantly returned to its former strength.

The massive cauldrons trembled, and then those dazzling beams of light were extinguished.

The Nine Provinces Universal Formation had fallen apart.

Moreover, just when Wang Chong and the others were rapidly recovering using the power of the earth, Heaven’s actions seemed to cut off this connection, and they felt the earth vein energy drying up.

Wang Chong, Unity Supreme, Luo Supreme… everyone turned ghastly pale.

Earth veins!

Heaven had severed the earth veins of the world, cutting off the army’s energy source.

“How can the light of the firefly vie with the moon? Master Guangcheng is just Our prisoner. You thought you could use his strength to oppose Us?” Heaven said scornfully, and everyone felt their bodies chill.

With Master Guangcheng’s strength, they had been able to fight, but now, all their hopes had gone up in smoke.

“Heaven, this is far from over!

“Triple Divine Embryo Fusion!” Wang Chong bellowed, and the three Divine Embryos instantly appeared behind him.

Bang!

The three Divine Embryos placed their hands on him, and their energies immediately flowed into Wang Chong.

Numbers were now pointless. Only by gathering together the energy of all three of his Divine Embryos did he have a chance.

Buzz!

Wang Chong’s energy swelled once more, surpassing the Grotto Heaven realm and approaching the half-step Divine Martial realm once more.

Moreover, Wang Chong also had the Divine Embryos pass their foundational energy to him.

Foundational energy was the basis of the three Divine Embryos and was extremely important to them. Its loss would inflict indelible damage on them, but Wang Chong had no other choice.

Clang!

When its energy was drained, Divine Embryo 1 turned into a suit of black armor on Wang Chong’s body. The Ice element Divine Embryo 3 turned into a crystalline blue spear that fell into Wang Chong’s hand. As for Divine Embryo 2, it became a helmet atop Wang Chong’s head that merged with Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy.

Bang!

With the power of this helmet, Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy received a massive boost, becoming capable of distorting space.

A moment later, as time energy rippled across the surrounding tens of thousands of feet, Wang Chong vanished, charging at Heaven with a spear in hand.

“An ant trying to shake a tree, not knowing its strength!”

Heaven coldly snorted. Before Wang Chong could get close, he thrust out a palm, and a black mass of energy surged forward. Boom! This wave of energy that far surpassed Wang Chong’s level instantly struck him.

Fwoosh!

Wang Chong’s body trembled, and then he vomited blood and flew backward like a ragdoll. Boom! The earth crumbled away as dust and debris rocketed into the sky.

Heaven’s single palm had destroyed all of Wang Chong’s spacetime and time energy, and even the armor formed from Divine Embryo 1 had been shattered.

Heaven was far, far more powerful than his avatar.

“This is all the Child of Prophecy amounts to. Do you realize how far away you are from Us now?”

Heaven’s eyes were filled with disdain as he coldly laughed. This was true strength. The earlier ‘Heaven’ was just him playing a game with Wang Chong.

Bang!

Heaven’s Stellar Energy rumbled, and without another thought, he thrust his palm again at the heavily injured Wang Chong.

“Chong-er!”

The Demonic Emperor Old Man trembled in shock, rising into the air and gathering all his energy to try and stop Heaven.

“Dao of Myriad Energies!”

Millions of energy swords appeared, blotting out the sky as they hurtled at Heaven.

Roooar!

The Wushang Village Chief also rose into the air, and a massive white dragon with a body a hundred thousand feet long, suffused with a pure and righteous energy, flew at Heaven’s attack.

Unity Supreme, Luo Supreme, Li Xuantu, and Su Zhengchen swiftly joined the fray.

“Stop him!”

All of them hurled themselves at Heaven, for no matter what else happened, Wang Chong had to survive.

“Hmph, you think you can oppose Us?”

Heaven snorted and instantly took action.

Even Wang Chong with the power of his three Divine Embryos had been no match, let alone the Demonic Emperor Old Man and these other Grotto Heaven realm experts.

With a thrust from Heaven’s palm, the Demonic Emperor Old Man and his millions of energy swords were blasted into dust by Heaven’s overwhelming power.

“No!”

In the giant crater, Wang Chong’s eyes turned red, and he felt like a thousand arrows had pierced his heart.

Buzz!

Wang Chong held down his injuries and charged in Heaven’s direction.

But it was too late. Heaven would not give Wang Chong even the slightest chance.

Bang!

Heaven thrust out his palm again, and the Wushang Village Chief only had time to shout, “Brother Zhang!” before he and his white dragon were blasted to pieces.

“Ah!”

Unity Supreme, Luo Supreme, Li Xuantu, Su Zhengchen, the supreme experts of the continent, threw themselves at Heaven and attacked him in a frenzy.

But they were like moths flying into flames in front of Heaven’s absolute strength. Before they could even get close, they were blown into dust by Heaven’s palm.

In a flash, six supreme experts of the era had disappeared from this world.

All of them had gone to save Wang Chong, but in the end… they had been no match!

“Noooo!”

Wang Chong felt like his heart was dripping blood.

“Heaven, I’ll kill you!”

Wang Chong turned into a blur as he charged at Heaven, but all that came in response was that palm of unstoppable power.

Bang!

Wang Chong was blasted even farther away, his injuries even heavier. With a boom, a crater that had a radius of one thousand meters appeared on the Turkic steppe, dust rising to the heavens.

“Kill me? With your strength?”

Heaven, wearing a black robe, casually strode forward. At that moment, the entire world had yielded to him. Even the gods could only bow their heads in the face of his overwhelming power.

Buzz!

Heaven extended a palm, and an invisible energy snatched Wang Chong and removed him from the crater.

Layers of energy bound Wang Chong up, preventing him from moving.

“Unwilling?

“Angry?

“Now you know why We are called the only god since the foundation of the universe, yes? In the face of absolute power, destiny and prophecies are just jokes.”

Heaven walked across the air toward Wang Chong with the aura of a victor.

“Wang Chong, do you really think you are the only one to stand before Us?”

Heaven looked at him with a pitying gaze as he continued to walk, each step seemingly as heavy as a mountain. After a few steps, a dazzling light rose from the center of his forehead, followed by a second, a third… A few moments later, those lights had turned into jewel-like crystals.

As those crystals emerged, the Stone of Destiny in Wang Chong’s mind began to fiercely vibrate.

“Stones of Destiny!”

Wang Chong’s body trembled, and he felt like his chest was about to burst open.

The crystals floating at the center of Heaven’s forehead were none other than Stones of Destiny!

These Stones of Destiny had different appearances, but all of them exuded the same kind of energy.

Thumpthump!

Wang Chong had never imagined that the Stones of Destiny would appear like this before him, and right before the world was about to be destroyed.

One, two, three… seven Stones of Destiny had appeared from the center of Heaven’s forehead!

“There’s no harm in telling you. Starting a long time ago, We began to hunt you holders of the Stones of Destiny. One, two, three… this isn’t the first time scenes like this have happened. All of them have appeared before Us in different ways. Each time, they believed that they stood for righteousness, but alas, they all failed.

“Now, all that’s lacking is the three Stones of Destiny in the center of your forehead, and We will have gathered them all!”
