“Since you are not willing to submit to Us, do not blame Us!”

With these final words, Heaven glanced at Wang Chong, smirked, and then began to blur out of existence.

“Heaven, where are you going?!”

Seeing this, Wang Chong grimaced and disappeared, rapidly making his way toward Heaven’s position.

Boom!

But before Wang Chong could get very far, the earth shuddered, and with a cracking and groaning, a massive fissure appeared, starting at the Imperial Palace and dividing the entire capital in two. It was impossible to say how deep this pitch-black fissure was. Wherever it went, paving stones, roof tiles, and wall bricks were pulled up into the sky.

Moreover, after the first fissure appeared, more and more fissures began to cleave their way across the capital, and the buildings shuddered and toppled.

Screams erupted from all parts of the capital as countless people were sucked into the sky by that destructive energy, cast into the infinite void.

Wang Chong paled. Unlike his big brother, second brother, and Xiaoyao, these people had not been conjured up from nothing by Heaven. While they were puppets whose memories had been modified by Heaven and they were being controlled to perform this farce, they were still living human beings.

Moreover, this place was in the depths of the universe. If nothing stopped them, they would be cast into the void and crushed.

Heaven was using them and could throw them away like an old pair of shoes, but Wang Chong could not just sit back and watch.

This moment of hesitation was enough for Heaven’s aura to completely disappear, but Wang Chong could no longer worry about that.

Buzz!

Wang Chong threw out the halo divine tool, and a millstone-sized ball of golden light began to rapidly expand, swiftly becoming a huge sun that hung over the miniature capital.

Boom!

At the same time, Wang Chong stomped down, and the earth shuddered as Halos of Spacetime began to radiate from Wang Chong.

Several hundred feet away, a goateed scholar had just been tossed into the air, but before he could fall into the void, a golden Halo of Spacetime appeared under his feet. In a flash of light, the scholar was transported into the halo divine tool.

Buzz!

Above the city wall, ten-some people screamed as they flew into the air, but a moment later, Halos of Spacetime appeared under their feet and whisked them into the halo divine tool.

All across the miniature capital, more and more people were sent into the halo divine tool using the Halos of Spacetime, and the rate of teleportation was constantly increasing.

At this moment, Heaven’s voice rumbled like thunder, coming in from all sides as the capital collapsed. “What’s the point? Ants are ants, born in the morning and dying at dusk. Even if you save them, they will still be like ants, dying meek and puny deaths.

“And even if you do this, how many people can you really save?”

Bang!

As Heaven spoke, a piercing whistle could be heard. Before Wang Chong could react, a giant meteor came blazing out of the sky, hurtling toward the capital with thunderous speed.

The meteor moved incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had crashed near the southern gate. A massive shockwave wiped out the surrounding five or six streets, blasting buildings into the sky as flames scorched the earth.

Even though Wang Chong had acted ahead of time and moved the nearby people into the halo divine tool, several figures were still caught up in the flames and obliterated.

And a few moments later, more meteors began to fall, blazing with flames as they howled toward the capital, thick smoke rising from them.

The blazing light lit up the entire capital as brightly as day.

“Bastard!”

A moment later, Wang Chong understood that Heaven was using this method to wipe out all these lives.

Countless meteors were hurtling at the capital, and there was no time to think. Wang Chong’s three Divine Embryos emerged and erected a giant barrier over the collapsing capital.

Bang!

The fabric of space trembled and the earth shuddered as the flaming meteors smashed down, but all of them were blocked by that glassy barrier. As they exploded against the barrier, they turned into dazzling balls of fireworks.

Using this time, Wang Chong and the three Divine Embryos worked together to create countless Halos of Spacetime across the capital, instantly sending everyone into the halo divine tool.

After all this, the rain of meteors falling from the skies suddenly disappeared, leaving only the empty capital as it continued to collapse and fall into the void.

Heaven had finally given up on this pointless offensive.

But Wang Chong remained focused, not letting down his guard. He knew that things were far from over.

As expected, after a few moments of silence, Heaven began to speak once more.

“Wang Chong, what does it matter that you moved them all to your ritual tool? From the moment you entered this place, you sealed your fate. You will join all of them in death!

“You cannot save them, and you cannot save the world. In the end, you can save no one!

“This is the will of Heaven!”

As Heaven spoke, the collapse of the world accelerated, and only a few seconds later, the capital under Wang Chong’s feet had completely vanished. In the center of this dimension, there was a single point of light, a star in the universe, and it began to rapidly expand.

Wang Chong immediately sensed an intense danger approaching.

He suddenly understood that starting from now, Heaven was truly beginning to attack.

This would be the first time since Heaven had broken out of his seal that they would truly clash!

......

......

Meanwhile, on the vast Turkic steppe, war cries shook the heavens as the human army battled with the Celestial Army in the center of the steppe.

Before this battle, everyone had known that they would be facing an extremely strong foe. From a certain perspective, they were the army of the ‘Celestial Emperor’. But only when actually facing this army did they understand how strong it was.

Bang!

A Celestial Army soldier punched, and when that gauntleted fist made impact, the chest of a human soldier instantly caved in, the armor of refined iron crumpling like it was made of paper. The human soldier screamed as he was knocked flying several dozen feet.

Each Celestial Army soldier was a human-shaped Behemoth, possessing explosive strength, agility, and charging speed of an unimaginable level. It took only a few moments for the front line to be thrown into disarray by all of the Celestial Army soldiers exhibiting overwhelming strength!

Swaths of the human soldiers were blasted away, their bodies breaking apart.

The Celestial Army had already slain tens of thousands of human soldiers.

It was a sight that made everyone’s hearts heavy.

Too powerful!

Over the last three years, they had done everything in their power to create a vast army that could contend against the Celestial Army. This army of more than six million soldiers consisted of fierce and well-trained men.

But there was still a significant gap between them and the Celestial Army.

“Hold!”

“We can’t let them break through the defense line!”

Furious roars came from the front. Even though men were being cut down in pools of blood, none of the warriors were afraid, and none of them retreated.

Everyone knew that there was no retreating!

Thudthudthud!

The thudding of collisions mixed with the cracking of bones rang out over the battlefield as the human soldiers were thrown back, vomiting blood. But so long as they did not take fatal wounds, everyone would stand back up and throw themselves into the battle.

“Charge!”

Men were constantly slain, but more people charged in to take their place.

“Fools!”

Atop the altar, Essence Supreme watched with a cold and unmoved expression.

“This is what makes humans so lowly. They clearly know that they are no match, yet they continue to madly throw themselves into the breach!” Grand Supreme indifferently said.

Only at this moment when lives were constantly being lost in front of them did they once more experience the nobility they had once enjoyed as ‘gods’.

In their clashes with that Child of Prophecy, they had suffered far too many setbacks, but at this moment, as they once more destroyed another civilization and watched it fall before them, they felt their former pride and arrogance.

Yes, even though they looked similar to humans, the countless eons had fundamentally changed them.

Starting a long time ago, they had become true gods.

“Milord?”

In the rear, all of the commanders could see what was happening, and they turned to the Great Generals: Wang Zhongsi, Bahram, Ozmish Khagan, Zhangchou Jianqiong...

These people were also observing the front, hints of pain in their eyes.

“Milord, should we have the soldiers at the front temporarily withdraw?” a Sassanid commander next to Bahram asked.

There were Sassanid soldiers on the front line as well. Over the last three years of large-scale training, the armies of various countries had intermixed. Other than the elites, the majority of the armies had already been dispersed.

“There’s no need.”

Though there was pain in Bahram’s eyes, he rejected the suggestion immediately.

“This is their duty, and also their choice. When they joined the army three years ago, they already knew what they would be facing.”

Ozmish Khagan, the Khitan King, the Xi Queen, and Mengshe Zhao King Fengjiayi gave the same orders.

For a warrior, dying on the battlefield was destiny.

To fight for the sake of the world, for the refugees of the various countries in the Promised Land, for the sake of the continuation of civilization in this world, was the highest honor for every warrior!

There were many ways to die!

To die for the sake of human civilization was the desire of countless warriors, an opportunity that many would go their entire lives without encountering.
