Chapter 1696 - The Seal of Finality!

“Heh, as expected!”

Nearby, Wang Chong stood like a spear thrust straight into the ground, staring at the men in black with a smile on his lips. He had reaped the greatest harvest after spending more than six hundred thousand points of Destiny Energy and borrowing the Tianfu Divine Lord’s strength. The most important item the Origin Immortal Lord had given him, the golden seed in his mind, had not disappointed him.

The moment from just before had been extremely dangerous and risky. With his fast shifts and erupting and receding Stellar Energy, Wang Chong had been able to complete the tightrope act and avoid the fatal strike.

Not even the Tianfu Divine Lord had understood what was going on. Only Wang Chong understood that this was only possible with the ‘True World’ ability of the golden seed.

“Tianfu Divine Lord, your attacks can no longer threaten me. I’ve seen through the secrets of your Six Stars of the Southern Dipper! It’s impolite to not reciprocate a gift, so now, it’s my turn to attack!”

Wang Chong looked at the Tianfu Divine Lord and smiled.

Wang Chong had been analyzing the Tianfu Divine Lord’s movements this entire time, not even giving up in the middle of battle. That speed that surpassed thought had caged Wang Chong, creating an unbreakable barrier that had rendered Wang Chong’s Subtle realm energy powerless.

But now, with the ‘True World’ ability and the star map of the Southern Dipper in his mind, Wang Chong finally understood.

Boom!

The air trembled as Wang Chong used the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, the sun and moon manifesting on his shoulders. Several dozen meters away, the men in black yelped in shock as they were pulled on invisible strings toward Wang Chong.

As they were pulled through the air, their Stellar Energy and essence blood gushed out in vast torrents.

At Wang Chong’s current level of strength and with his perfected Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, he could even absorb the abnormal Stellar Energy within the bodies of the men in black.

After circulating this abnormal Stellar Energy once through his body, he sent it out with a palm, blasting away the obstruction that stood between him and the higher dimension. Boom! In a howling gale, frightening energy exploded out of mid-air, the unimaginably boundless Subtle realm energy swiftly traveling over from that distant and unfathomable world to pour into Wang Chong’s body.

The distant Tianfu Divine Lord grimaced at this sight.

He had used the Southern Dipper Star Awls and three sealing palms on Wang Chong precisely to limit Wang Chong’s strength and prevent him from escaping the net or injuring him. If Wang Chong were allowed to absorb Subtle realm energy once more, all his previous effort would be for nothing.

Buzz!

The Tianfu Divine Lord immediately flew forward, using his frightening movement technique to vanish into the air. Swish! Swish! Swish! The Tianfu Divine Lord shook his wrist, and twenty-four Southern Dipper Star Awls sliced through the air, shooting toward Wang Chong from various directions.

The Southern Dipper Star Awls were extremely valuable, and each one took great effort to create on the Tianfu Divine Lord’s part. He was normally extremely stingy with them, but now was not the time for such considerations.

“Everyone, attack and kill this Child of Destruction!”

The Tianfu Divine Lord’s voice was suffused with killing intent as it rang in everyone’s ears.

Whoosh!

Upon hearing the Tianfu Divine Lord’s order, all the men in black, including the monk, charged forward, taking on their half–Lu Wu or Asura forms to assault Wang Chong. At the same time, the Tianfu Divine Lord moved to Wang Chong’s back, attacking with the sword in his right and his palm on his left. His palm hurtled toward Wang Chong’s back while the sword thrust at Wang Chong’s head, both moving with incredible speed.

“It’s useless!”

Wang Chong’s cold voice echoed through the air. As he grew more and more proficient with the ‘True World’ ability, he could see everything in its rawest and most fundamental form. Most importantly, Wang Chong knew the secrets of the Southern Dipper.

There was a great rumble as the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art began to exert its pull. Numerous men in black shrieked as they were drawn toward Wang Chong, their bodies turning into dried-up corpses midway, all of their energy drained out to strengthen Wang Chong.

Their level of strength simply couldn’t compare to the Subtle realm, but for Wang Chong, each bit of extra strength was an additional aid in his fight against the Tianfu Divine Lord.

Buzz!

Wang Chong turned around and pushed the Greater Void Step to its limits. A moment later, Wang Chong saw the Tianfu Divine Lord. This time, Wang Chong could clearly see the power of the stars condensed into almost invisible threads. Six of them were around the Tianfu Divine Lord, distributed exactly in accordance with the Six Stars of the Southern Dipper in the sky.

If Wang Chong didn’t have the True World ability of the golden seed, he would have probably never been able to sense these threads.

Not even in the world of energy could he sense these condensed star threads.

The fourth star!

Wang Chong’s eyes flashed as he saw that the Tianfu Divine Lord had moved from the first star’s position to the fourth star, where he launched his attack.

Bang!

Wang Chong condensed his Trayastrimsa Heaven into the golden spear and charged toward the southwest.

A figure suddenly appeared in what had been empty space. The Tianfu Divine Lord was stunned to see Wang Chong charging straight at him.

Boom!

But not even the Tianfu Divine Lord could change his plan on such short notice. Boom! Two energies collided in the air. Wang Chong’s body trembled, and then he was thrown back. The power of the Tianfu Divine Lord’s attack had been so great that it had almost scattered the energy Wang Chong had gathered in his body.

The True World ability could not strengthen Wang Chong’s body. The Tianfu Divine Lord was still a frightening opponent that Wang Chong needed to confront with his full strength.

“High God!”

As Wang Chong was sent flying, there was a golden flash of light, and a figure was sent hurtling out of the cloud of dust in the opposite direction, struck by the Trayastrimsa Heaven’s golden spear.

The men in black cried out in alarm and shock, and they immediately rushed over to the Tianfu Divine Lord’s side.

The Tianfu Divine Lord was far stronger than Wang Chong, and it was simply unthinkable to them that the Tianfu Divine Lord could ever be injured.

Just the fact that the Tianfu Divine Lord had been hit by someone else’s attack left them frightened.

But this was far from the most shocking thing.

“What… what is that?!” someone cried out in fear and terror.

This abrupt cry immediately drew everyone else’s attention, and all the men in black turned to look at the center of Wang Chong’s forehead.

“The Seal of Finality…!”

“It’s that frightening thing from the legends!”

“The object of the prophecy has finally appeared!”

“Get back! Hurry!”

The men in black who had subconsciously turned their heads to look after hearing the cries of alarm turned ghastly pale, and they began to back away as if they had run into a plague bearer. Not even the black-robed monk was an exception.

“This is impossible! Impossible! This thing should have never appeared here!”

The Tianfu Divine Lord, who had just stabilized his body and come down from the sky, stared at the mark on Wang Chong’s forehead in shock, even fear.

“Mm?”

Even Wang Chong was taken aback by the reaction from the men in black. This development was simply too abrupt and unexpected.

One had to realize that even when Wang Chong had used the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art to devour the energies of several dozen men in black, turning them into shriveled corpses, the men in black had still not looked at him as they were doing now, as if he was some fierce primordial beast.

“What’s going on here?”

Wang Chong was stunned.

“High God!”

As the men in black began to retreat from Wang Chong, the black-robed monk turned to the Tianfu Divine Lord.

The situation had substantially changed, and the men in black had lost the will to fight. In addition, something even more important than destroying the Child of Destruction had occurred.

The seal that had appeared on the forehead of the Child of Destruction could shake the entire Celestial God Organization.

The Tianfu Divine Lord said nothing as he stared in shock and doubt at Wang Chong.

“Divine Lord, this is no small matter. That legendary seal has truly appeared. Once he gains control over that seal’s power, we might not be able to leave! This matter is no longer something we can deal with. We should report this to our superiors as soon as possible!” the monk urgently whispered to the Tianfu Divine Lord.

The Tianfu Divine Lord was still hesitating, but a moment later, he seemed to hear something. Clenching his teeth, he finally gave the order.

“Everyone, retreat!”

The Tianfu Divine Lord’s figure twisted and distorted, then vanished without a trace.
