“Wang Chong, you don’t think I’m the same ignorant person from before, do you? I wonder, how will you hold off the attacks from both me and Venerable Genesis Supreme?”

An Lushan coldly laughed .

The earth rumbled as sharp spikes made from stone shot out of the ground toward Wang Chong .

Now that the three formations beneath the steel fortress had been broken, An Lushan’s Power of the World was no longer restrained and could permeate the area . Using the World Consciousness, he could do even more things .

But at this moment…

Bang!

On the southern face of the steel fortress, a firework shot into the air . Even though the raging cold wave extinguished the firework before it could rise more than a hundred feet into the air, it was still dazzling for those few moments .

“Go!

“Zhangchou Jianqiong, Lord Junior Guardian, lead everyone in a retreat!”

Everyone was flabbergasted as Wang Chong’s voice rang out in their ears .

An Lushan was taken aback, but he swiftly understood that Wang Chong had given the signal for his entire army to retreat .

“Go? Where are you going? Cui Qianyou, Tian Qianzhen, Tian Chengsi, hold them down!” An Lushan fiercely ordered .

“Yes!”

In a flash, the Youzhou and alliance commanders mobilized, their faces savage as they pursued the Divine Martial Army, Xuanwu Army, and the other elite armies covering the retreat .

Now that he had finally gained the advantage, he would not let Wang Chong leave so easily .

But An Lushan had underestimated the Tang elite armies . The Divine Martial Army, Xuanwu Army, Azure Martial Army, Mo Saber Unit, and Wushang Cavalry had not yet arrived when the first battle had started . With the Tongluo Cavalry, Aswaran Cataphracts, Wang Zhongsi, Zhang Shougui, Abusi, and an army of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, Wang Chong had been able to fight equally with the alliance army . Now that all the elite armies had gathered, their power was even greater than before .

While the soldiers of these armies might not have been able to contend against ten thousand enemies each and defeat the entire alliance army, if they just wanted to retreat, not even Cui Qianyou and Tian Chengsi exerting their full might would be able to stop them .

“His Highness has given the order! Go!”

Once his Xuanwu Army had thrown the opposing alliance army into disarray, Zhao Fengchen mounted his horse and ordered his army to retreat .

Soon afterward, the Divine Martial Army, Azure Martial Army, Mo Saber Unit, and Wushang Cavalry turned around and began to ride southward .

None of them tarried, not even taking a glance back . Once Wang Chong gave his order, everyone strictly carried it out .

Following orders was a soldier’s duty, and any extraneous actions might ruin the entire plan . As elite soldiers of the Great Tang, they keenly understood this principle .

Neigh!

Horses loudly neighed, and in just a few moments, all of the elite soldiers had vanished into the inner fortress .

And this was only the beginning…

Roooar!

With a furious roar, a giant silhouette passed overhead, leaping in the direction of Wang Chong . Before its feet had even touched the ground, a giant cudgel swung at An Lushan .

“The King Ape!”

That mountainous silhouette made An Lushan grimace and hastily back away .

This King Ape didn’t have any sort of cultivation level, but its flesh was tough and it was brimming with brute strength . Fighting this beast in a melee would definitely result in a loss .

After pushing back An Lushan, the King Ape swung its cudgel upward, joining Wang Chong in attacking Genesis Supreme in the sky .

“Beast!”

Genesis Supreme slightly frowned . He didn’t fear the King Ape, but being attacked from both sides made one rather passive, and he couldn’t help but back up a little to avoid the cudgel .

Though the swing had missed, the King Ape continued with its frenzied assault .

Bang!

The King Ape swung its cudgel, instantly turning numerous alliance soldiers that had climbed onto the walls into pulped flesh .

The King Ape stomped, pulverizing a large number of alliance soldiers that had charged in through the gap .

An Lushan and the Youzhou commanders grimaced . Though the King Ape didn’t represent a lethal threat to An Lushan and Genesis Supreme, if they just let it be, it had more than enough strength to inflict devastating losses on the alliance army .

And while Genesis Supreme hadn’t cared about it at first, when he saw the King Ape’s terrifying power, his expression sank .

The Celestial God Organization had always regarded itself as a heavenly court, and as one of the supreme leaders of this organization, he could not allow the King Ape to further flaunt its strength, as it would damage his dignity .

“Impudent!”

A dangerous light flashed in Genesis Supreme’s eyes . He brought his hands together, upon which a Halo of Spacetime covered in inscriptions appeared in his hand, rippling with power as he aimed it at the King Ape below .

But although Genesis Supreme reacted quickly, Wang Chong reacted even faster . Seeing that all his troops had withdrawn and the alliance soldiers were still pouring through the gap, he immediately called over Divine Embryo 3 . It began to rapidly form hand seals, and Ice Element energy even more vicious than the energy of the cold wave erupted from its body .

“Ice-Sealed World!”

Harnessing his Grotto Heaven realm strength, Wang Chong used Divine Embryo 3’s natural ability .

Boom!

The moment Wang Chong took action, the air trembled and all sound vanished, then a light blue energy erupted from Wang Chong’s body .

Everything in a region for hundreds of thousands of feet around Wang Chong, whether galloping horses, flapping banners, high steel walls, turbulent air currents, and even the snowy mist, was all frozen in ice . The world had truly become a world sealed in ice .

“Not good!”

An Lushan was stricken with fear as he saw the blue light erupting from Wang Chong’s body, instinctively sensing an immense danger . With no time to think, An Lushan retreated at full speed, at the same time mustering all his Stellar Energy to protect himself .

Cui Qianyou, Tian Qianzhen, and the others cried out in alarm as they also fell back .

They had already passed the walls and were ready to pursue, but upon sensing the powerful ripples of energy from Wang Chong, they backed away in panic while unleashing their Stellar Energy to protect themselves .

Even the floating Genesis Supreme turned stern . In the face of Wang Chong’s Ice-Sealed World, he had no other choice but to avoid it .

Though Genesis Supreme had not witnessed the battle at the Caspian Sea for himself, he knew that Firmament Supreme had faced an extremely powerful Ice Element attack .

And based on what had happened afterward, it was obvious that Firmament Supreme had been attacked by Wang Chong’s Ice-Sealed World . As Firmament Supreme had grown careless and had fallen prey to this technique, Genesis Supreme did not dare to repeat the mistake .

Buzz!

A halo appeared under Genesis Supreme’s feet as he used the power of spacetime to escape into the void and avoid Wang Chong’s attack .

But An Lushan and his men were not so fortunate . As the blue light swept over them, even the likes of Ozmish Khagan and Yeon Gaesomun dropped to the ground, their bodies covered in thin layers of ice .

Even though each of these people was a powerhouse of their region, they were incapable of stopping Wang Chong’s Grotto Heaven realm attack .

“Let’s go!”

After freezing all of them, Wang Chong, his face slightly pale, immediately escaped into the distance .

He had bought his army precious time, but even though he had frozen half of the battlefield with this immensely powerful attack, he knew that it was basically impossible to defeat the alliance army this way . Let alone the fact that this attack hadn’t even completely frozen the likes of Genesis Supreme or An Lushan, spreading the attack over a range of hundreds of thousands of feet had greatly reduced its power .

As expected, after lunging just a few tens of thousands of feet, he began to hear the sounds of cracking ice behind him . Boom! An Lushan was the first to break out, shooting up from the ground . Soon after that, Cui Qianyou, Ozmish Khagan, Yeon Gaesomun, and the others shattered the layers of ice around them .

And in the air, Genesis Supreme returned in a flash of light .

Bangbangbang!

He reached out with his right hand, his immense energy spreading out together with law energy to engulf the battlefield . Through his prodigious power, Genesis Supreme was able to shatter the layers of ice and free the alliance army from their frozen shackles .

But in those few moments, Wang Chong had withdrawn with his army .

“Hmph, can you run?”

Genesis Supreme stood in the air, watching the Tang army fleeing out of the southern gate with a cold smile .

For Genesis Supreme, all of Wang Chong’s efforts were pointless .

Even if he used the Ice-Sealed World to temporarily stop the alliance army, did he really think that he could stop them forever?

Moreover, the world was blanketed in snow, and there was no shelter to speak of . With just the cotton clothes they had prepared, how far did he think they could run with their army of hundreds of thousands of soldiers?

“What a fool! It seems that this god overestimated you!”

As Genesis Supreme spoke, he disappeared in pursuit of Wang Chong .

As An Lushan watched his army revive and break free from the ice, a smile crept onto his lips .

“Run? Now that things have gotten this bad, Wang Chong, do you really think I’ll let you get away?”

An Lushan turned in the direction of Wang Chong’s fleeing army and cruelly smiled .

The war had finally entered its climax .

This time, he would relentlessly pursue Wang Chong to the ends of the earth . No matter where he ran, only death would await him .
