Chapter 2249 - The End of the Road!

Bang!

As if the World Consciousness had heard An Lushan’s words, it roared, and countless silver snakes crackled through the clouds. A moment later, an enormous bolt of lightning slashed down from the skies.

As that lightning bolt cracked down, the entire world was illuminated as brightly as day.

“Right! Just like that! Kill him!”

An Lushan clenched his teeth in excitement.

This attack had the power to sunder mountains. Not even Wang Chong would be able to bear it.

“An Lushan, stop dreaming! I won’t give you any chance!” Wang Chong’s cold voice penetrated through the snowstorm and the blinding lightning.

A moment later, An Lushan watched in shock as Wang Chong looked up at the giant lightning bolt sent down by the World Consciousness.

Crack!

There was a deafening boom as the lightning bolt came down. If one looked carefully, one could even see that this lightning bolt was leaving behind black fissures in the fabric of space.

These dangerous spatial fissures were precisely one of the frightening aspects of this bolt of lightning. Steel would be easily obliterated by these fissures, and even Grotto Heaven experts would be in danger.

But then, something even more astonishing occurred.

That lightning bolt unleashed by the thundercloud slashed downward, but when it was about a hundred feet from Wang Chong’s head, it suddenly disappeared. It was as if there was an invisible barrier around him. Even the air currents and snow around him were undisturbed.

It was as if it was all an illusion!

“Impossible!”

An Lushan’s eyes flew open in disbelief, his face twisting.

The World Consciousness represented the thoughts of the world. This was a supreme existence far surpassing any human, whose strike represented the direct interference of the entire world. No one should have been able to resist the entire world.

“Nothing is impossible!”

Wang Chong slowly began to walk toward An Lushan.

“As I said before, if I want to kill you, no one will be able to save you, not even the so-called World Consciousness.

“Genesis Supreme and his lot called you the Child of the World, but all you really are is a slave of destiny, a puppet on strings. But I am an existence that neither destiny nor death can control.

“An Lushan, we were never on the same level of existence. All you have done has been nothing more than a last-ditch struggle.

“Accept your fate!”

Clang!

As Wang Chong spoke, he took the Xuanyuan Sword from its sheath, once more revealing its cold splendor.

The armor An Lushan wore was no ordinary item. Ordinary attacks were unable to injure him, so the Xuanyuan Sword was the best option.

And for someone who wanted to bring disaster down on the Central Plains, the Xuanyuan Sword was the best execution weapon!

“No! I won’t accept it!

“World Consciousness, kill him! Kill him!” An Lushan bellowed and pointed at Wang Chong as he backed away.

Boom!

The World Consciousness also seemed enraged by Wang Chong’s ‘arrogance’, and countless bolts of lightning even stronger than before spewed out.

Crack!

A moment later, all this lightning merged together into an enormous bolt that slashed down at the puny Wang Chong below.

But that shocking event took place once more.

The lightning bolt slammed down one hundred feet away from Wang Chong, seemingly unable to lock onto him.

“Bastard!

“Bastard! Bastard!!

“What World Consciousness? What Child of the World? All useless! Useless!!!”

An Lushan’s eyes were blood-red as he bellowed in frustration.

But this time, instead of roaring at Wang Chong, he was roaring at the thundercloud vortex and the World Consciousness that had descended.

When Genesis Supreme had told him that he was the Child of the World, and when he was truly able to summon the World Consciousness and control the weather, he truly had been very excited.

But what was the point?

It couldn’t even kill a single human!

Kaclack!

Lightning bolts crackled for several dozen li around. An Lushan’s indignant rage had caused the World Consciousness to further evolve, and more powerful, concentrated, and terrifying lightning descended upon Wang Chong. This frightening energy tore open the fabric of space, creating tens of thousands of pitch-black spatial fissures and turning the entire region into a danger zone.

The World Consciousness was seemingly going all out in order to stop Wang Chong and save An Lushan, the vortex growing larger and larger and the World Consciousness growing more and more concentrated.

This area was now extremely dangerous to Grotto Heaven experts.

But Wang Chong continued to confidently stride through the blazing lightning.

In defeating the alliance army and killing Genesis Supreme, Wang Chong had obtained an immense amount of Destiny Energy, which he had used to activate a more powerful ability.

The Archon’s Power!

A faint golden barrier surrounded Wang Chong, almost imperceptible to the human eye, preventing any lightning within a hundred-some feet from getting close.

This was a special ability that Wang Chong had received upon being promoted to Archon of Destiny.

As the ‘Destiny Struggler’ and ‘Controller of Destiny’, Wang Chong had been subjected to the World Constraint, and he was constantly assailed by attacks and rejections from the World Consciousness.

But after completing missions which should have been impossible to complete and altering key historical events, Wang Chong had been promoted to Archon of Destiny, whereupon there was finally a qualitative shift. He finally had the ability to protect himself.

This was the Archon’s Power!

As the Archon of Destiny, he had escaped the control of destiny, and any attack that came from the world, including the World Constraint, was incapable of harming him.

Within a certain range, the Archon’s Power could erect an Archon Barrier around Wang Chong. The only price was a massive consumption of Destiny Energy.

But this was no problem for Wang Chong in his current state.

“An Lushan, hand over your life!”

Wang Chong’s expression was cold, and his eyes were thick with killing intent.

He and An Lushan had kept up their grudges for two lifetimes. It was about time to bring an end to it all.

Clang!

The sword vibrated, and then Wang Chong disappeared into the snowstorm.

“Nooooo!”

An Lushan’s pupils constricted, and he felt like his breathing had stopped. His sense of danger had been completely overwhelmed at this point, unable to rise any higher.

Bang!

With no time to think, An Lushan exploded with a speed that he had never reached before, shooting into the sky and toward the north.

An Lushan was afraid.

Yes!

He didn’t want to die!

He had begged for his life in front of Wang Chong purely because he didn’t want to die. Only if he was still alive would he have a chance to make a comeback and return everything Wang Chong had done to him.

“Hmph, do you really think I’ll let you leave?”

Wang Chong’s voice was so cold that it could make blood freeze.

“Noooo!”

As An Lushan howled in fear and anger, Wang Chong unleashed a beam of Sword Qi several thousand feet long, slicing through the air and the snowstorm. It took only a split-second to strike at An Lushan in the clouds.

Boom!

The fabric of space trembled as An Lushan was struck by Wang Chong’s attack and plummeted from the skies like a block of wood.

The massive impact made the ground quake, and the ice sheet for hundreds of thousands of feet around cracked, some slabs of ice rocketing more than one thousand feet into the air.

Bang!

But in the blink of an eye, An Lushan shot back into the sky like a distorted bolt of lightning, fleeing once more toward the north.

He wanted to run, escape from this place!

The world was so big that he had to have a chance!

No, just the north pole was enough!

The snowstorm engulfed all there, and it was countless times colder. With his abilities, he could definitely resist the extreme cold, and the place was so blanketed in white that whether he hid on the land or in the sea, Wang Chong would never be able to find him.

An Lushan’s entire body tensed as he mentally roared, I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die here! Wang Chong, I won’t forgive you for this!

With death imminent, An Lushan unleashed all his latent potential.

He rapidly burned away all his Stellar Energy, and wherever he went, the air let out a piercing whistle.

An Lushan was far faster than anyone beneath the Grotto Heaven realm, and with the assistance of the World Consciousness, he even exceeded Wang Chong’s Shadow Fiend Art. But in front of Wang Chong, he was still just a beast running around in a cage.

Grotto Heaven experts controlled spacetime, and the normal definition of speed was meaningless to them.

No matter how quickly An Lushan fled or how much strength he exerted, he would never be able to escape Wang Chong’s palm.

Buzz!

A moment later, a dark golden halo appeared in front of An Lushan’s despairing eyes, rapidly expanding. In a flash of light, a youthful and cold-faced figure walked out of the Halo of Spacetime.

“An Lushan, just how far do you think you can run?”

In Wang Chong’s domineering eyes was a faint tinge of pity.

Wang Chong was in no rush to kill him. To kill him like this would be too good for him. Even if this archcriminal of the Central Plains died all the same, Wang Chong wanted him to taste fear and despair, wanted him to know what it felt like to have nowhere to run.

Only this could be considered the true end of the road.
