Chapter 2273 - The Soul's Weakness!
Chapter 2273: The Soul’s Weakness!
Under Wang Chong’s control, this Psychic Energy was aimed in a single direction and slammed into the minds of the men in black.
After battling Genesis Supreme and obtaining that divine halo, Wang Chong had grown even stronger in Psychic Energy.
Boom! Boom!
A moment later, the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief saw something incredible.
In the end, Psychic Energy was not a physical substance and was completely different from Stellar Energy. Thus, while Psychic Energy could heavily injure an opponent by throwing their mind into disarray, in normal circumstances, it was very difficult to kill someone with Psychic Energy, even for someone like Wang Chong.
But what was happening before them made them question everything they knew. With a boom, the two men in black charging at the front were struck by Wang Chong’s Psychic Storm and froze.
As the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief looked on, the faces of these men in black turned pale white, and their eyes quickly lost their luster.
Without even a groan, the two of them collapsed to the ground.
Behind them, large swaths of men in black began to collapse. Even those half-step Grotto Heaven realm men in black were not spared.
“What’s going on here?”
The Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief were flabbergasted.
Wang Chong truly was very strong, but in normal circumstances, he shouldn’t have been this strong. Moreover, the men in black appeared to have suffered a lethal wound.
“There’s something strange about these men in black. Their souls seem incomplete, similar to Genesis Supreme from back then,” Wang Chong slowly said.
Wang Chong had surpassed his master and was far stronger than the Demonic Emperor Old Man and the Wushang Village Chief. As he had stepped out, he had immediately sensed that while these men in black seemed powerful, their souls were like guttering candles and were somewhat damaged.
For Subtle and even half-step Grotto Heaven realm experts to be like this was incredibly abnormal.
Though he didn’t know the exact reason, Wang Chong was experienced in dealing with opponents with damaged souls.
Whoosh!
The winds howled around them as Wang Chong stood tall and slowly withdrew his right hand. For tens of thousands of feet around him, there was nothing but silence. All of the men in black had collapsed, motionless, to the ground.
They had not sustained any fatal wounds, and the formation’s power was still healing them, but their souls had already been scattered to the winds.
“If my guess is correct, these men in black can only survive here. Otherwise, we would have seen more Divine Lords in the war of the northeast,” Wang Chong slowly said, appearing extremely composed.
From what he could see, there had been at least sixty Divine Lord or half-step Grotto Heaven experts guarding this place.
“They feel like failed experiments to me,” Wang Chong sternly added.
The men in black loved to carry out various experiments. Whether it was the Behemoth Army of Arabia or those ancient Hou they had run into on the polar plain, and perhaps even those strange flames the Celestial God Organization used, in Wang Chong’s view, they were all vestiges of experiments that they had carried out.
If there were experiments, there had to be failures, and those people seemed like failures to him.
But in this world, many people didn’t even attach anything special to the word ‘experiment’, let alone could tell what was one.
Voices boomed through the space. “Heh, as expected of the Child of Destruction that only appears once every several thousand years, able to see the truth with a glance. But I fear that you might be thinking about this too simply.”
“It’s not that easy to intrude on the cold wave’s source.”
Those two existences had appeared once in the thundercloud vortex over the polar plain, after which they had fallen silent. But now, they once more began to speak.
Rumble! The earth trembled, and the trio sensed an enormous energy gushing out.
Deep beneath this area, a massive formation rapidly turned, swiftly reversing the battle that had taken place here.
Kaclack!
Bones clattered as those fallen men in black who had had their souls scattered by Wang Chong began to move their bones and rise from the ground.
Not only that, the several dozen men in black around them appeared even stronger and more threatening than before.
“Child of Destruction, we know that you are strong, but we have tens of thousands of souls like these. No matter how many times you disperse their souls, we can endlessly revive them.”
“I’d like to see how capable you are!”
The two voices coldly laughed before disappearing again.
The revived men in black let out bestial roars as they locked onto the trio.
At the same time, an even denser barrage of attacks swept toward them.
Boom!
Before the attacks could get close, Wang Chong opened his right hand, once more unleashing a wave of Psychic Energy.
A second later, the revived men in black dropped to the ground, but this time, Wang Chong didn’t stop.
Rumble! A dark golden Halo of Spacetime erupted from beneath his feet, and Wang Chong unleashed a powerful Grotto Heaven attack at that mysterious formation deep beneath the earth.
Beneath Wang Chong, past many complicated spatial constructs, an enormous formation rumbled, sending energy to the men in black on the surface.
There was faint soul energy mixed together with this energy.
The two Supremes hidden in the shadows had not lied. The defensive measures the Celestial God Organization had placed here were far more formidable than expected.
Right after Wang Chong had killed the men in black on the surface, the formation had already begun to turn, ready to revive them.
No matter how strong Wang Chong was, constantly consuming Psychic Energy like this was an enormous burden. If this continued, Wang Chong would be completely exhausted before he could even reach the source of the cold wave.
Boom!
Wang Chong’s immense energy paired with spacetime energy slammed into the core of that formation deep within the earth.
At his current level of power, Wang Chong’s full strength could obliterate the earth and tear apart space.
Even though Wang Chong didn’t understand how the formation operated, his understanding of formations in general allowed him to estimate where the core was.
Boom!
With a massive boom, Wang Chong’s destructive Stellar Energy tore apart that enormous formation.
Bangbangbang!
Those men in black that had been standing up, about to revive, collapsed to the ground again.
“Formidable, as expected. You even destroyed the formation. However, there are forty-nine reincarnation formations in all. Destroying one is far from enough.” That familiar voice rang out in the region once more, and an intense trembling came from beneath the feet of the trio.
Deep under the earth, another formation emerged to take the place of the one that Wang Chong had destroyed.
Wang Chong couldn’t help but grimace at this.
The abilities of the men in black were much more frightening than he had imagined.
It was better to consider how one could be defeated first than to consider how one could win. Because numerous experts in era after era had attempted to force their way here, the Celestial God Organization had made many more preparations than anticipated.
“Hmph, it’s not that easy!”
Wang Chong quickly came to his senses.
While the Celestial God Organization truly possessed divine abilities, they were looking down on him too much.
Wang Chong flipped his wrist, and Stellar Energy gathered in his body once more. Soon, the earth began to rumble as Wang Chong divided this energy into six streams, mixing them with his Psychic Energy and spacetime energy before sending them into the earth.
Buzz!
A second formation rapidly took shape beneath the earth. As it was about to take form, Wang Chong released the spacetime energy, and with this additional ingredient, he succeeded in creating a six-pointed spacetime sealing formation.
The fabric of space rumbled as the second formation began to turn, then, as his formation took effect, space froze.
“You!”
The two hidden Supremes paled at this sudden development.
Wang Chong’s strength, daring, and abilities were far more formidable than they had anticipated. He had used Stellar Energy to create a formation that was combatting the influence of the formation underground.
Even more incredibly, Wang Chong’s method was actually working.
Even for Supremes, this was an extremely difficult method that was only possible in theory.
This Child of Destruction was far more difficult to deal with than they had imagined!
