Chapter 2085: The Final Bellow!

As the massive golden halo appeared, mysterious black characters began to rush down like waterfalls. Each one of these characters contained pure, concentrated destructive energy. This destructive energy clearly shared the same origin as the golden light in Firmament Supreme’s mind.
They had clearly been created by the power of the seal.
“None of you will leave! All of you will die!”
Firmament Supreme’s hateful voice came from behind them.
The golden light was a seal granted to him by Heaven, only to be used when his death was certain.
Once this seal was activated, no one could escape, not even himself.
On the other end, Wang Chong could feel the sense of danger surging.
Firmament Supreme had gone mad, willing to give up his own life to avenge himself.
But with the halo sealing his surroundings, Wang Chong had nowhere to run or hide.
Buzz!
Suddenly, Wang Chong looked at that spacetime black hole behind Firmament Supreme, which had now shrunken to the size of an adult, and he had an idea.
“This is it!”
Wang Chong clenched his teeth and yelled, “Nightmare Beast, use Psychic Energy to suppress him!
“Faceless man, help me push him into the spacetime black hole!”
To vent his rage, Firmament Supreme had brought them next to the teleportation gate, planning to throw them into the spacetime black hole. But now, this had given them an opportunity to survive.
Time was short, and the golden light erupting from Firmament Supreme’s body was now a hundred times brighter, like a sun dropping to the mortal world, packed with destructive energy.
Firmament Supreme had already released it.
Bang!
At this moment, the Nightmare Beast struck, its steely Psychic Energy slamming into Firmament Supreme’s mind. At the same time, the three divine embryos and the faceless man lunged forward, their hands pressing against Firmament Supreme and unleashing their Stellar Energy.
“Ah!
“No!”
Firmament Supreme’s eyes flew open as he bitterly shrieked. He had not expected Wang Chong and the faceless man to turn around and use this move on him.
He instinctively extended a hand to stop them, but with his Grotto Heaven Core shattered and his body drained of Stellar Energy, he was not much stronger than an ordinary martial artist. Right after he extended his palm, his body was sent flying into the spacetime black hole!
Rumble!
With a terrifying explosion, the spacetime black hole collapsed. Within that chaotic region, Firmament Supreme’s body exploded.
The giant explosion shook the ground and the Caspian Sea with it, throwing up roaring waves.
The shockwave threw back the three divine embryos and the faceless man, pushing them into the ground.
The winds howled, and after a long time, the shores of the Caspian Sea finally calmed down. Firmament Supreme had vanished from existence!
Cough, cough!
After a long while, the three divine embryos and the faceless man finally began to get to their feet.
“Finally dead!
“Supremes are simply too frightening!”
Wang Chong scanned the area, thinking back to his battle with Firmament Supreme, his heart still thumping in fear.
This was the most difficult battle Wang Chong had experienced. There had been several times where he had almost died to Firmament Supreme, but in the end, he had still won.
Wang Chong stood up and said to the faceless man, “Come on; it’s about time to leave!”
He opened his hand, upon which the golden halberd buried in the distant dirt flew into it.
Although this journey had been very dangerous, the rewards had also been significant. Most importantly, he had destroyed a teleportation gate.
“Let’s see what happens over at the capital!”
……
Whoosh!
Wang Chong had no idea that as Firmament Supreme vanished out of existence within the spacetime black hole, far away, chains jangled as a pair of golden eyes with vertical pupils flew open.
“Firmament Supreme?
“A teleportation gate has been destroyed, and Firmament Supreme is dead!”
The golden eyes showed a visible tinge of shock.
“How could this be? Li Taiyi is no longer here. How could there still be someone capable of killing Firmament Supreme?
“Someone! Go to the shores of the Caspian Sea and investigate this at once!”
……
Heaven was far from the only one who was shocked.
In the darkness of the capital, a figure sat cross-legged in the air, their energy fused with their surroundings.
Buzz!
Suddenly, a faint ripple passed through space and struck Genesis Supreme, causing his body to tremble and his eyes to open.
“This energy is… Firmament Supreme!”
Genesis Supreme was in disbelief.
In the Celestial God Organization, the Supremes all shared a certain connection.
This sort of connection was usually not obvious, but when a major shift took place, all the other Supremes would immediately be informed.
Firmament Supreme was an extremely ancient existence of the Celestial God Organization, of such prodigious strength that it was extremely rare for anything to happen to him.
“What in the world happened, that Firmament Supreme would suddenly die?”
Genesis Supreme’s expression turned dark, his mind still shaken.
Too sudden!
Genesis Supreme and Firmament Supreme were both Supremes and had similar strengths. The sudden death of Firmament Supreme couldn’t help but make him wary.
“To me!” Genesis Supreme bellowed.
A figure suddenly appeared behind him like a ghost.
“Take a trip back. I need to know what happened by the Caspian Sea, and what in the world happened to Firmament Supreme!” Genesis Supreme sternly said.
“Yes!”
The figure silently vanished.
Everything fell silent once more. Genesis Supreme turned to the brightly lit capital, enclosed within the Miniature Nine Provinces Domain.
“Firmament Supreme’s death is ill news. Heaven is undoubtedly furious. I must hasten the pace of the plan and eliminate the Child of Destruction!”
……
Time slowly passed. Within the capital, Wang Chong’s actual body stood guard while Li Heng presided over the court, the two of them working in concert to keep order in the Great Tang.
With the Miniature Nine Provinces Domain, the men in black did not dare to enter the capital.
This allowed the war machine of the Great Tang to spin up into full gear.
“Your Highness, it has only been a month, but the number of new applicants has already reached one million. After a rigorous selection process, four hundred thousand have started training.
“With the three hundred thousand we previously recruited, we now have seven hundred thousand soldiers. Accounting for the regular army, the Great Tang army now numbers one million, three hundred thousand soldiers.”
In the main hall, Zhang Que bowed as he gave his report on the army.
Wang Chong narrowed his eyes and asked, “How is the training going?”
“Everyone’s enthusiasm is high, so they are very diligently training. Although only a short time has passed, they are already showing the basic form of an army.
“But we are still lacking middle-ranked officers to preside over the training. I’ve discussed the matter with Generals Su Hanshan and Li Siye to transfer more out from the army, and the two have already agreed,” Zhang Que respectfully said.
“Mm!”
Wang Chong subtly nodded.
Zhang Que was growing more and more proficient with his work. Not only was he in charge of the intelligence network, Wang Chong had also started to place him in charge of coordinating between the various divisions and officers of the army.
Wang Chong called this new method ‘cooperative engagement’. Its goal was to encourage increased communication between the various generals of the Great Tang with a well-developed information network so that they could assist each other and allow each army to fight at its best.
“There is also one other matter.”
Zhang Que raised his head and glanced at Wang Chong.
“Talk!” Wang Chong calmly said.
“The quality of recruits is extremely high, and many of them are at a high tier of the True Martial realm, with a significant number reaching the Profound Martial realm. It seems as if normally reclusive experts have also signed up, and all the Great Generals and Protector-Generals have started eying these recruits.
“Lord Zhangchou Jianqiong has transferred out thirty thousand recruits to fill the ranks of his Annan Protectorate army. The Imperial Forest Army and Xuanwu Army have also taken five thousand men.
“The Crown Prince’s Junior Guardian asked for a copy of the register, and took fifteen thousand men from the register of outstanding recruits!
“And while Protector-Generals Gao Xianzhi and An Sishun are far off in Arabia, I have heard that they also sent representatives for this recruitment drive, each taking twenty thousand men to replenish the ranks of the Divine Martial Army and Dragon Stallion Army.
“Even Great General Abusi has taken two thousand men.”
By the end, Zhang Que had a strange expression.
‘The Tongluo did not exceed ten thousand and were invincible above it.’ This referred to none other than Abusi’s Tongluo Cavalry. But everyone knew that the Tongluo Cavalry recruited only the Tongluo. They didn’t even take in other Hu. It was very strange for them to make an exception.
Wang Chong said nothing; only his eyes rippled faintly. He was not too surprised by this development.
The number of quality recruits was truly too high. The Crown Prince’s Junior Guardian, Zhangchou Jianqiong, Gao Xianzhi, and An Sishun could not be blamed for being tempted.
After consecutive wars, the various armies of the Great Tang had been left battered and bruised. They needed new blood to replenish their ranks, and these elite recruits could be more easily trained up to the standard.
Of course, these Protector-Generals and Great Generals not only wanted to replenish their ranks, but expand them.
These people had already brought this matter up with him.
