Chapter 1454 Thank You

The scene suddenly shifted to the one where he fought against the Heavenly Sovereign. Just like the Time God, he was younger than him, despite having this kind of power.

The Wind Emperor smirked, saying, "It's been a while since I've been this fired up… Was it five years ago? I was fighting against the time brat."

"If that's the case, I want to defeat you faster and better than him so that I can prove I'm superior to him." The Heavenly Sovereign smiled as he summoned trigrams above their heads.

"Mhm." The Wind Emperor smiled and stepped forth. "Go wild!"

The Ascension Step produced a powerful wind that blasted the trigrams. In exchange, the trigrams were releasing golden light that was suppressing the wind. However, the Wind Emperor's wind could disintegrate everything, so it was fighting the light.

In the end, each attack neutralized each other.

"It's truly hard to find someone like you among us. Your strength is not unique. Unlike other people in the top ten, your power is actually the most ordinary. Wind… You are simply using your wind to reach that position."

"Haha, that's right. Respect me." The Wind Emperor chuckled, teasing him.

Though, the Heavenly Sovereign added, "Of course, there was not a single day I didn't respect you from the moment I knew you. But this time, I come here to surpass you."

"Using me as a stepping stone? So be it. Let's see if you two are strong enough to be above me or not." The Wind Emperor smirked.

"Of course. That's why I have prepared this one for you." The Heavenly Sovereign smirked, looking down on the Wind Emperor from the air. He clapped his hands as a few trigrams appeared around the Wind Emperor.

"Three Great Formations, Immovable Mountain!"

"!!!" The Wind Emperor widened his eyes in shock as he immediately released all his wind, trying to dissolve the trigrams.

However, he soon realized that the trigrams weren't offensive ones. Instead, they were there just to stop him from moving.

He could feel that he couldn't move as if he was buried under the mountain. "This is…"

"With this, I shall surpass you. I am the Heavenly Sovereign, and I shall be the strongest in the world, for I rule Heaven!" The Heavenly Sovereign raised his hand, gathering all his power before waving it down. "Heaven Fall."

The Wind Emperor saw a golden light falling from the sky. Normal people couldn't show it, but this light contained so much power. Although it wouldn't destroy the surrounding area, it would surely destroy its target into nothingness.

The Wind Emperor smirked, knowing that this one power could kill him.

Without hesitation, the Wind Emperor released all his winds. "If that's the case, I shall face it with all my might. Disintegration!"

The air around him started gathering in one place. Even if the world stopped him from moving, he could still use his ability. That was right.

His ability wasn't fancy like the Heavenly Sovereign or the Time God. However, this seemingly ordinary power could actually become the strongest because he could gather the wind anytime and anywhere. He was restricted by anything.

That was why the Wind Emperor would be the greatest hurdle if they wanted to be at the top.

The wind tornado was formed and headed straight to the light, clashing with each other. Their clash made the world look split. The air turned golden and the ground was filled with green air, trying to paint their own world.

The light and the wind were disintegrating each other and only those who remained would be able to defeat the other party.

But the Wind Emperor wasn't someone that timid. He raised his hand and spread his tornado as if allowing the light to enter. "Come on. If we continue to do this, we won't be able to see the winner for another three days."

"So be it." The Heavenly Sovereign kept pushing down while the wind started gathering around the light and continued its way toward him.

"Kh."

"Haha!"

Both of them had their own reaction when they saw their enemy's attack hit them, engulfing them with all that power.

*Boom!*

A huge shock wave blew away everything in the surrounding area, turning the battlefield into a huge crater.

When the wind blew away the smoke, the Heavenly Sovereign and the Wind Emperor were still standing.

The Wind Emperor had his shirt disintegrated and his body boiled from that light. Meanwhile, the Wind Emperor's body was covered with wounds, shredded by the wind. If not for both of them using their power to protect themselves, they would have died.

"This is good." The Wind Emperor smirked.

The Heavenly Sovereign raised his hand again, trying to continue the fight. However, the Wind Emperor raised his hands and said, "Let's stop it. You can take my position."

"Huh?" The Heavenly Sovereign was bewildered by his action. "You…"

"I simply wanted to see the power of the man who claimed to have surpassed me. That's all. I've seen your ability and the potential to go forward, so I'll give you my spot." The Wind Emperor smirked. "Congratulations."

"!!!" The Heavenly Sovereign never thought the Wind Emperor would admit defeat despite being able to continue to fight. This was a matter of honor, but the Wind Emperor didn't seem to be interested in it.

"Don't be too focused on your ranks. It's nothing but a number. As long as everyone knows you are strong, that's enough for me." The Wind Emperor waved his hand. "With this, the battle has finished."

The Heavenly Sovereign took a deep breath and clasped his hands. "Thank you very much for your guidance, Senior Wind Emperor."

The Wind Emperor smirked.

…

They didn't know why but the Time God and the Heavenly Sovereign had a nostalgic feeling. They came out of their houses and looked at the sky, picturing the man who was loved by the sky, air, and wind. He was a man they respected so much.

The Time God and the Heavenly Sovereign closed his eyes, feeling sad.

"Thank you so much for your guidance." Both of them uttered the same words, remembering the man they would never forget in their lives.
