In Arabia’s Riyadh and in the islands of the south, everyone was also experiencing the phenomena, their hearts heavy.
Though there was no definite evidence, everyone had vaguely sensed that something was about to happen.
At this time, in the lands of the north, in a secretive dimension within the depths of spacetime, countless figures stood in a crowd, gathered around a massive golden formation.
But it was not entirely right to call it a ‘formation’. This was an ancient seal, a seal that had imprisoned Heaven in this place.
In the golden seal, terrifying waves of energy surged. This vast energy could make the world pale and make any martial artist who saw it sigh in wonder and feel puny beyond compare.
This was a vast sea of energy that no mortal could ever touch.
In truth, this place was the source and core of all the phenomena taking place throughout the continent.
“Celestial Emperor!”
“Celestial Emperor!”
“Celestial Emperor!”
“We’ve finally managed to reach this day! Heaven is finally about to emerge. The eternal era of the divine kingdom begins here!”
Cheers rose up from the crowd, everyone fervently staring in the direction of the sealed energy core.
The crowd was in a frenzy, all of them sharing the same emotion. At the very front, numerous Fallen had even gotten on their knees as if they were prostrating toward their god.
In the last few years, the Celestial God Organization had suffered an unprecedented wound, with all of its members forced to leave the continent. The mental blow this had caused was enormous. But now, none of this mattered. It was only a splash of froth in the long history of the Celestial God Organization.
What was coming was an age of glory and splendor like never before.
Rumble!
One wave of energy after another burst out from the seal, slamming against the golden barrier like a raging ocean.
Once, twice, thrice… With each heavy collision, this legendary barrier finally began to show cracks. Red light burst out from the cracks, and through the cracks, one could see that divine figure within.
Essence Supreme, Grand Supreme, and Radiance Supreme were all here, their eyes fixed on the golden barrier, their minds restless from the excitement.
The place where Heaven had been sealed had always been a secret, and no one had ever been able to get close, or even known where it actually was. But this time, Heaven had made an exception and summoned all the upper echelons of the Celestial God Organization to this legendary place where he was sealed so that they could personally witness this final and most important of moments.
There was no need to continue hiding it. After today, that powerful and terrifying seal would cease to exist. Thus, there was naturally no need to keep it a secret.
“The moment has finally come…”
Essence Supreme stood at the very front, his eyes blindingly bright.
After countless epochs, he had finally arrived at the moment where the true sovereign of the Celestial God Organization would descend.
For so many years, while the Celestial God Organization had been bright on the outside, in secret, it had been dealing with all sorts of obstructions: Li Taiyi, Luo Supreme, Origin Supreme, Unity Supreme, and recently that Child of Destruction, Wang Chong… All of them had dealt the Celestial God Organization a heavy setback.
But soon, all of them would cease to exist.
Essence Supreme could sense that this ancient and supremely powerful golden barrier was rapidly weakening, and in the core of the formation, Heaven was growing stronger and stronger. The moment of his reemergence was not far from now.
“Stand aside!” A majestic voice rang out, and then with a great rumble and a howl of wind, a golden Halo of Spacetime erupted from the core of the barrier, the powerful energy pushing aside all the experts of the Celestial God Organization.
As this halo emerged, crack! The world seemed to be sundered by an immense power, and the entire area flashed with lightning and rumbled with thunder. All of them could see an enormous, golden pillar of energy rising from the very center of the formation.
The moment this golden pillar of energy appeared, this entire dimension was lit up as brightly as day, plated with the viscous golden light.
Not only that, this terrifying energy shattered the fabric of space, tearing a massive cavity through it. This power was endless, seeming to extend across the ends of the earth. In a flash, this energy had penetrated through millions of dimensions, reaching to the end of infinity.
Rumble!
As that golden light emerged, dark thunderclouds instantly blotted out the skies of the capital.
Dark clouds bore down on the city, threatening to overwhelm it!
Heavy thunder boomed and winds howled. The world went dark as a suffocating energy enveloped the capital.
“Wang Chong, three years is up. We have come to meet our appointment!”
As a lightning flashed across the clouds, a majestic and noble voice, the voice of the god who reigned over the heavens, resounded over the capital, applying even more of that suffocating pressure.
Buzz!
The entire capital trembled at the sound of this voice, and a vicious gale swept out of the north, causing the tiles of the roofs to rattle and clatter endlessly.
“Ah!”
Cries of alarm came from all over as the common folk of the capital fled in panic.
The orderly capital instantly fell into disarray.
That terrifying pressure made everyone feel like disaster was hanging over their heads.
The mood in the capital instantly turned grim. From their residences, Li Xuantu, Little Nightmare, Zhao Fengchen, Bai Hanzhou, Zhangchou Jianqiong, and King Song solemnly looked up at the skies.
Even Emperor Li Heng led out his officials from Taiji Palace to look up at that part of the sky where the lightning was most concentrated.
Heaven!
Even without anyone saying anything, everyone knew that this terrifying pressure that had appeared over the capital was none other than the three-years-gone Heaven!
No one had expected Heaven to descend so quickly!
A moment ago, it had just been heavenly phenomena, but now, he had directly appeared over the skies of the capital.
Powerful!
Incredibly powerful!
Though they had known three years ago that Heaven would break out of his seal, his sheer power was still enough to make one despair.
In the Celestial Palace, Li Xuantu had clashed with Heaven, but this Heaven was even more frightening. The descent of his consciousness alone was terrifying enough to make Li Xuantu feel like he was facing a powerful enemy.
No, he wasn’t even worthy of being Heaven’s enemy.
At this moment, a phrase came to Li Xuantu’s mind.
The difference between the clouds and dirt!
This was the gap between him and Heaven.
Rumble! Thunder could be heard from the clouds, seemingly right overhead. And in this brief moment, the chaotic capital became eerily quiet.
All three million inhabitants of the capital were in hiding, cowering, their bodies shivering in panic.
After the Celestial Palace incident, everyone knew of Heaven’s name. For them, this was a true world-destroying demon king.
At this moment, everyone looked in the direction of the Supreme King Residence.
But the estate was quiet and devoid of activity, as if Heaven’s words had gone unnoticed.
“Hmph!”
A cold snort came from above, and as if the speaker had lost patience, a blazing lightning bolt flashed. All of the lightning began to converge, melding together into a divine bolt of lightning that was one thousand times brighter than the sun before slashing down.
Kaclack!
Such was the brightness of this bolt of lightning that it made the surrounding world seem devoid of light. That massive bolt of lightning was like a river in the sky, radiating light as it slammed down on the Supreme King Residence.
It was impossible to describe the strength of this attack!
As the divine lightning descended, time seemed to stop, space distorting in its wake.
Its terrifying power could instill fear and a sense of inferiority in any person’s heart.
It instantly crossed a distance of tens of thousands of feet. Two thousand feet, eight hundred feet, two hundred feet! It drew closer and closer, and it seemed like the Supreme King Residence was about to be utterly flattened, removed from this world…
Boom!
Suddenly, a terrifying energy that was almost on par with Heaven’s erupted from the ground.
As this energy exploded outward, time seemed to stop, the world becoming deathly still.
But a moment later, the divine lightning seemed to run into an invisible barrier. All of its energy was completely blocked. Not only that, a destructive torrent of energy traveled upward into the depths of the clouds.
Kaclack!
A giant, invisible axe cleaved across the heavens. As these two energies collided, the blazing lightning above seemed to dim, and the trembling ground of the capital stabilized.
The clouds dispersed and the wind faded, everything returning to normal.
Above the Supreme King Residence, a young figure proudly hovered in the air, standing as straight as a spear.
Simply by floating there, this man radiated a vast and endless aura. Anyone who saw him would feel like they were looking up at a tall mountain, or perhaps even the sea of stars.
As the man stood there, the fabric of space solidified. It was as if nothing in the multiverse could hope to shake him.
