Chapter 2434 Encircling the Son of Heaven

This chaotic world was an artificial minor realm.

It was akin to the artificial minor realm connected to Song Shuhang's core world.

Until today, this chaotic small realm had remained s.h.i.+elded while empowered by the force of the Heavenly Dao. In the vast expanse of the multiverse, no one could locate it.

But today, the moment that Slow-Witted Song and his comrades had been patiently waiting for had arrived.

The current Heavenly Ball Path suddenly malfunctioned. Although the process was brief, they finally seized control of this artificially created realm that had been hidden by the power of the Heavenly Dao!

"Heavenly Dao Creation," Slow-Witted Song exclaimed as he opened the entrance to this chaotic world. The Great Northern Emperor and others could sense the unique aura enveloping this small realm.

At its center lay a charred land. The earth was cracked, and silver liquid metal occasionally flowed from its depths.

Beneath the scorched surface lay their targetthe core of this realm!

"This artificial world is one of the contingencies prepared by the current 'Heaven' for himself. If his original plan had succeeded, the ancient Heavenly City would have relocated to this location in this artificial realm. Eventually, the Dao of the entire celestial heavens would converge here to repair the flaws in the current 'heaven,'" Slow-Witted Song explained solemnly.

However, their actions in the past, particularly his collaboration with Cheng Lin due to Pavilion Master Chu, disrupted the ancient Heavenly City's plans. He had even seized control of the Heavenly Court's territory and acted as the de facto ruler, although it was a precarious position. Eventually, Cheng Lin orchestrated the collapse of the Ancient Heavenly City, upending their plans entirely.

"Is our target here?" The Great Northern Emperor inquired, his presence chilling the air, nearly freezing even the surrounding s.p.a.ce.

"This s.p.a.ce is a product of Heavenly Dao's creation, our opponent's home turf. Engaging in direct combat here would put us at a disadvantage," the Great Western Emperor observed.

"But we don't have the luxury of choosing our battlefield," Slow-Witted Song replied while leading the way into the chaotic world. "If we don't enter, we won't be able to draw our target out."

Now in control of most of the ancient Heavenly City, he had inherited both the Heavenly Emperor's Dao of Time and Cheng Lin's Dao of Life. His presence met the prerequisites for triggering changes within this chaotic world. Only by entering could they influence the core hidden beneath the scorched surface.

"Don't worry, we have reinforcements this time," Slow-Witted Song rea.s.sured them once they had stepped into the artificial realm. Besides the might of the ancient Heavenly City, Fairy Cheng Lin had secretly gathered a group of top-notch Immortals.

These included Daozi, the first disciple of the Sage of the scholarly faction, the surviving Immortal from the t.i.tanium Temple, the sole sober member of the cursed otherworldly demons, and Fairy Cheng Lin herself, who could temporarily manifest through Ye Si. Together, they formed a formidable force.

Slow-Witted Song entered the man-made realm, where his inherited Dao of the Heavenly Court and Dao of Time resonated with the realm's energies. The core of the man-made world sought to absorb Slow-Witted Song's Dao. However, unlike the Heavenly Emperor, Slow-Witted Song lacked the mark prepared by the Heavenly Dao which did not permit the realm's core to seize his Dao. Furthermore, he sensed the presence of the liquid metal sphere within the realm and unleashed a hidden power within him.

The Scholarly Sage's blood contained in the rainbow kidney surged with power, and a projection of countless scholarly scriptures materialized above him. It was accompanied by the sound of recitation. This was the first time Slow-Witted Song exhibited the demeanor of a scholar. Simultaneously, the Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique and the Mutated Steel Hands Technique activated. All three cultivation techniques within Song Shuhang's body merged into one, and activating one brought the others into play.

The Scholarly Sage's power pushed back against the core's suction force and prevented it from absorbing his Dao. The Great Northern Emperor, Great Western Emperor, Immortal Peach Fairy, and Soul-Seizing Emperor entered the realm.

"The power of the Scholarly Sage? I didn't expect Profound Sage Tyrannical Song to possess such hidden strength," the Great Northern Emperor expressed in surprise.

"There's a lot more hidden within him. To be honest, if he were able to activate all the pendants on his body simultaneously, he alone could destroy the core of this man-made realm," Slow-Witted Song boasted. Unfortunately, activating all the pendants' powers in Song Shuhang's body and concentrating them in one point proved exceptionally challenging.

"The core is reacting to both the Heavenly Emperor's Dao and the Scholarly Sage's aura. It's about to emerge," the Immortal Peach Fairy reported.

"Let's do it," the Great Western Emperor said.

The Great Northern Emperor nodded and used his ice elemental powers to freeze the scorched ground and covered a vast area.

The Great Western Emperor released two suns into the sky, their fiery energies contained and ready to strike the target upon its appearance.

The Soul-Hooking Emperor created a complex formation with his Soul-Hooking Chains.

The core deep underground began to tremble, drawing all the liquid metal from the surrounding area back to itself.

With a deafening explosion, the core cracked open.

"It's out!" Slow-Witted Song declared.

"Wait... It's empty!" Fairy Peach exclaimed, her eyes wide open as she monitored the situation.

The core was empty. There was nothing inside!
