Chapter 1548: His Future is Simply Unfathomable

Chapter 1548: His future is utterly unimaginable.

"A mere first-tier Supreme God, guarded by two boundless wills—what a revelation to behold."

Mong Diao coldly chuckled.

"A first-tier Supreme God, daring to summon a Supreme Will-being to strike with a relic of transcendent will, and the one who issued such a command—most likely your Void Emperor, Majesty—this too is a true revelation."

The Cyclic Will also coldly laughed.

Then, addressing the Moon-Gazing Will in the sky, He bowed respectfully:

"Greetings, Sister Moon-Gazing."

"Long time no see, Hún Tiān. Your tongue remains as sweet as ever."

The Moon-Gazing Will smiled lightly.

The Cyclic Will chuckled with a dry, amused smile.

"I came this time solely to kill the Celestial Sovereign of Changsheng. It was meant to bring comfort to my own conscience, a reckoning for the disgrace I suffered when my unworthy descendants turned to Changsheng's sovereignty, and was scolded by the Supreme Emperor of Void. There is absolutely no connection between that and the Emperor of Void."

Meng Duo said it stubbornly.

"So after being scolded by the Emperor of Void, he suddenly bestows upon you this Reality Cube—a device capable of altering the very fabric of cause and effect—to fight against the Sovereign of Changsheng?"

"Meng Duo, your lies are too clumsy."

The Cyclic Will chuckled coldly.

"This Reality Cube was borrowed by me long ago from the Supreme Emperor of Void, for use in battles across other divergent cosmic realms. It was not specially loaned to me by the Supreme Emperor of Void for the purpose of confronting the Sovereign of Changsheng."

Meng Duo said.

"Stubbornness."

The Cyclic Will shook her head.

"The truth of the matter will eventually emerge when your corpse is brought before the Supreme Will."

Wang Yue's will spoke calmly.

"With just you two, lower-tier Supreme Will beings, you dare to kill me in this current state?"

"Let them witness the true power of the Absolute Heaven Beast!"

Meng Duo roared, charging forward first toward Wang Yue's will in the full moon.

The clash erupted instantly between them.

Wang Yue's will held the divine sword, and as it swung, the blade moved like a master dancer performing a sword dance—elegant, ethereal, and drifting through the air.

Meng Duo, on the other hand, employed pure feral combat, fierce and untamed, each move dangerous and brutal.

The contrast between their battle was striking—like a wild beast clashing with a celestial maiden.

"Wang Yue sister, I'm here to help you!"

The Cyclic Will brandished the Six Paths Cycle Sword and soared into the full moon, joining them in the fight.

Zhou Zhan stared on, his brows furrowing.

For he realized that even as the Will of Reincarnation and the Will of Looking-Moon faced off against Mengtu, the embodiment of the Absolute Sky Beast still managed to effortlessly suppress both of these formidable beings.

"Such a powerful Embodiment Will Technique,"

Zhou Zhan murmured softly.

Absolute Sky Beast!

There was no record of such a being in the bloodline heritage within his own mind. Unsurprisingly, this must be a special kind of beast originating from some distant cosmos or ultimate void.

Undeniably, this unknown creature was incredibly powerful.

He had no idea how the Will of Reincarnation and the Will of Looking-Moon would proceed in confronting this one.

What if they failed? What then?

At that very moment—

The turning point arrived.

Suddenly, Mōgatsu's will retreated hundreds of light-years away.

He gazed upon the Absolute Heaven Beast, and with a jade hand extended, he saw a dual-flame lotus—blending jade-green and crimson—spinning slowly in his palm.

"You, the manifestation of the Absolute Heaven Beast, must have come from another vast cosmos," said Mōgatsu's will, with a calm, faint smile. "Then I shall counter you with a relic—something I stumbled upon by chance in the Ultimate Void, a treasure from a distant, alternate cosmos."

"Let us see—whether your manifestation of the Absolute Heaven Beast is superior,"

"or whether my artifact is mightier."

"First, I must inform you—this artifact is called the Green Flame Crimson Lotus!"

"Go!!"

With a cold cry, he saw the Green Flame Crimson Lotus in his hand instantly transform into a streak of vibrant searing light, shooting straight toward the Absolute Heaven Beast.

The Celestial Beast of Absolute Heaven sensed the surge of vivid green-and-red light hurtling toward it—and instantly felt an unimaginable sense of peril. As if merely touching that green-flame red lotus would instantly wound it, and if it faced it head-on, it might perish outright.

"What kind of artifact is this?!?"

Mondot felt an icy dread crawl down his spine.

In his current form, a manifestation of the Celestial Beast of Absolute Heaven, he already sensed such danger. What would happen if he faced this green-flame red lotus in his normal state? He would surely die without a chance!

There was no time to think further.

He immediately attempted to evade the attack from the green-flame red lotus.

But at that very moment—

The Cyclic Will clearly perceived the terrifying nature of the allied tactic. Seeing the Celestial Beast of Absolute Heaven attempt to dodge, it instantly raised the Six Paths of Cyclic Swords before its face, shielding half of its own visage.

It spoke, one syllable at a time:

"Ultimate Will Technique—Six Paths Sealing!"

Whoosh!

A subtle tremor passed through the Six Paths Cycle Sword, then it burst forth with an astonishing brilliance—six radiant beams, each one piercing the heavens.

These beams shot straight toward Meng Duo, enveloping him completely in their radiant glow.

Behind the shimmering light of Meng Duo, a colossal six-path wheel began to spin slowly, revealing the six realms: the Celestial Deity Path, the Human Path, the Asura Path, the Hell Path, the Hungry Ghost Path, and the Beast Path—each one a vivid illusion.

Under the crushing force of these six realms, Meng Duo felt his every step become impossible. He was trapped in place, unable to move, unable to evade the surging Qing Fire Red Lotus.

Feeling the imminent threat of death, the Absolute Heaven Beast roared to the sky, its latent potential erupting. Its form instantly ballooned to twice its original size. The chaotic fur covering its body began to seep with vast amounts of divine blood.

Even the great six-path wheel behind it trembled and quivered, as if it could no longer contain the beast.

The Will of Cycles’ expression shifted sharply.

He had not expected that even with his own essence-bound artifact—the very core of his will—this Absolute Heaven Beast remained unyielding. If the beast escaped its seal, and if the Will of Wàngyuè’s Qing Fire Red Lotus could not reach it, then the beast would escape unharmed. In that case, neither he nor the Will of Cycles would stand a chance against such a force.

At this moment, His heart was racing with urgent anxiety, yet it was all in vain.

Just as the crisis reached its peak,

a calm and composed voice echoed.

"Under heaven, all land belongs to the king!"

A nine-colored domain erupted instantly beneath Meng Duo's feet and swiftly expanded in every direction.

The Cyclic Will paused, then looked with hopeful anticipation. When He saw that the one releasing the domain was Zhou Zhan, a look of profound disappointment flashed across His face.

He understood Zhou Zhan's desire to aid them, but alas, Zhou Zhan himself was merely a first-tier Supreme God. How could a Supreme God-level domain possibly affect an Unconquerable Will, especially one at the mid-tier of such a realm?

In his mind, the Cyclic Will had already concluded that Meng Duo would not be affected by Zhou Zhan's domain.

But then, something utterly astonishing occurred.

As Zhou Zhan had just finished unleashing the domain technique "Under heaven, all land belongs to the king," he immediately continued:

"Establish domain rules: Bind the form!"

The words had barely finished echoing when a sudden stillness fell over the celestial beast that had just been about to break free from the six seals. As if struck by an invisible force, it froze mid-motion—unable to move, unable to escape—trapped within the seals, helpless against the searing, crimson lotus fire hurtling toward it.

In an instant, the crimson lotus fire crossed the distance of light-years, piercing through the beast’s neck.

The creature’s eyes widened in shock, fury, disbelief—then its head tumbled free. The body erupted into flames, and soon, it was nothing but ash, vanishing into nothingness.

Immediately, its form shrank rapidly—within mere breaths, it returned to its original size.

Wang Yue’s will and the Wheel of Rebirth’s will swiftly arrived at the scene, and what they saw was a terrifying sight: once majestic, omnipotent, the Celestial Beast now lay as a headless entity of ultimate void.

Fragments of chaotic-colored fur still clung to its divine form—clear evidence of the embodiment of the Celestial Beast having once touched it.

"Thus, it perishes?!"

The Cyclic Will stared in astonishment.

He had thought—even with the combined strength of his own will and the Moon's Will—that they would engage in a grueling battle lasting days, a clash of wills that would only end in a decisive victory.

He had even prepared himself to wait until the other's embodiment of the Absolute Beast was fully spent, then strike with all his might.

Yet, just as he formed this plan, the enemy was already—dead?

An entity of Supreme Will could not simply vanish like that?

This was a Supreme Will being.

The death of such a being—whether it be a Void Emperor, the Supreme Will itself, or the Crimson Sovereign—would bring deep sorrow, and inevitably, vengeance would follow.

"My previous blast of Azure Flame and Crimson Lotus, though possessing the power of a Supreme Will above, would still be easily evaded if the enemy chose to flee," said the Moon's Will. "Even if your younger brother, Soul Heaven, temporarily seals his movements with the Six Paths Sealing Technique, he should still be able to break free and escape my attack."

Upon hearing this, the Cyclic Will paused, then nodded in thought.

Just moments ago, He truly felt himself on the brink of being overwhelmed by the sudden surge of power from the Absolute Heaven Beast, nearly allowing it to break free from its seal.

Thinking of this,

He glanced at Zhou Zhan with a complex expression.

The Moon's Will also stared at him with a mixture of complexity and deep emotion.

A first-tier Supreme God's domain technique—how it had for a single instant immobilized a being at the mid-tier Supreme Will level.

Though only a fleeting moment, and though a significant portion of that moment's effect still came from the Six Paths Seals of the Cyclic Will—this was still astonishing.

He was only a first-tier Supreme God!

Yet he had achieved something so extraordinary.

What would happen if he ascended to the Supreme Will level?

Meanwhile...

At this moment, Zhou Zhan's face was pale as a sheet.

He felt the divine power within him nearly depleted, and a bitter smile flickered across his lips.

Since mastering the technique of "King," he had never before pushed himself to the point of exhausting every last trace of his divine energy.

This clearly demonstrated the immense cost of using the lordly technique—“All under heaven is the king’s domain.”

"Not to be outdone, even by a mid-tier Supreme Will-being."

"I merely employed my self-crafted rule, 'Stasis,' to hold him for a single instant—and in that fleeting moment, he drained every ounce of my divine energy."

"If Moon Will’s Qinghuo Honglian had arrived even a moment later, this technique might have begun siphoning not only my life force, but also my destiny, to suppress the opponent."

Zhou Zhan felt a deep chill of regret.

What he valued most was his own destiny. If even a single thread of it were lost, he would feel unbearable sorrow.

Fortunately.

The Qinghuo Honglian of Wangyue Willpower proved reliable, swiftly eliminating the Absolute Heaven Beast.

At that very moment.

A cold voice from Wangyue Willpower echoed softly in Zhou Zhan’s ear.

“Imperial Sovereign of the People, would you be so kind as to spare a moment for a brief meeting?”

Zhou Zhan was startled, then immediately agreed without hesitation, and swiftly arrived before the Willpower of the Cycle and the Willpower of Wangyue.

“Greetings, Lord of the Willpower of the Cycle.”

“Greetings, Lord of the Willpower of Wangyue.”

Zhou Zhan bowed respectfully.

“Ah,” the Willpower of the Cycle complained, “you’ve always been called ‘Xian Brother’ in daily life, but now, before others, you treat me as if we’re strangers? Is it truly impossible for our relationship to be seen in public?”

Zhou Zhan remained silent, stunned.

"What are you babbling about?" Moon's Will scolded, "Didn't you notice that your younger brother is acting out of concern for you, which is why he calls you 'Master'?"

"There's no need for such formality between me and my brother," the Cycle Will scoffed, waving dismissively, then chuckled. "Brother, from now on, whether before anyone else—or even before the Supreme Will itself—call us simply brothers. No need to adhere to rigid conventions."

"Then I'll do the same from now on."

"Ha! That's exactly how it should be."

The Cycle Will felt satisfied. Only then did He recall the matter at hand, his curiosity piqued: "Brother, was it truly you who used that Divine Rule Technique to momentarily counter the Absolute Heaven Beast in the form of Mongtu?"

The moment those words left His lips,

Even Moon's Will turned to look.

He was genuinely curious.

After all, that was a being of Supreme Will Realm—specifically, a mid-tier Supreme Will being. A true apex force. Even He would have had to give it his all. How could such a being be momentarily subdued by a first-tier Supreme God using a Divine Rule Technique?

He couldn't quite believe it.

Yet as He recalled the scene just now, He could not help but believe.

"It's me."

Zhou Zhan nodded.

"How did you manage that?"

Wang Yue's will couldn't help but express astonishment.

"My rule-level technique—'The Entire World Belongs to the King'—though currently only a first-tier Supreme God's Rule Technique, stands as one of the most dominant among all domains. Even against the Will Sanctum of the Supreme Will Realm, my 'The Entire World Belongs to the King' exerts a certain degree of suppression."

Zhou Zhan spoke plainly.

There was nothing to hide—after all, the other had just witnessed it firsthand.

The Cyclic Will and Wang Yue's Will exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock reflected in each other's eyes.

Could a domain law technique from a First-Class Supreme God actually exert any suppressive effect upon the will domain of a Supreme Will-being at the highest tier?

This sounds utterly impossible!

Yet, given the visible suppression inflicted upon the Absolute Heaven Beast just moments ago, Zhou Zhan’s words were without a shadow of doubt—true and undeniable.

And precisely because of that, they were even more stunned.

For it meant that the technique wielded by the Celestial Sovereign possessed astonishing potential!

At the First-Class Supreme God level, it could already suppress a mid-tier Supreme Will-being for a brief instant.

Should that being ascend to true Supreme Will-being status, this technique might very well be capable of suppressing even upper-tier or peak-tier Supreme Will-beings—perhaps even reaching the threshold of Will Transcendence!

They exchanged a glance, then turned their eyes toward Zhou Zhan, whose expression remained calm and unflinching.

And in that moment, they realized with growing certainty that the Supreme Will’s decision to appoint the Celestial Sovereign as the final reserve Supreme Lord was nothing short of perfectly justified.

His future—unimaginably vast, unfathomable.
