Chapter 1356  The Last Trick (Second half)

If it meant he could succeed then there was little Hao Xuan was unwilling to do. But that didn't mean he didn't have his doubts.

"I do. But can we really win? It all seems so...hopeless."

The red-eyed, older version of him grinned wickedly, 'Each of us was different, mere experiments in his hands but our powers were incontestable!'

He walked over and stood to the left of Hao Xuan, 'Before you...it was me. A warlock, able to manipulate and attune to almost every type of spell conceivable. My only flaw was my weak form.'

The blue-eyed, younger version of him came closer and took his place on the right.

'I was a demigod...born from the blood of Zeus himself. I think when he created me he wanted to use the power of the Gods themselves to destroy them. My strength lies in manipulating arcane energy. If we work together and combine our powers, we could strike back at him. Will you accept us?'

They both looked at him expectantly.

They felt like separate entities to Hao Xuan but both of them were essentially him from different timelines that no longer existed.

Because every time something went wrong the Emperor went back into the past and changed things, manipulating them to better suit his own goals. What he didn't expect was that those 'versions' of Hao Xuan were not completely wiped out.

And Hao Xuan didn't have to think for long, it wasn't even a question at this point.

"I accept."

Both of them reached out simultaneously, placing one hand on his shoulder and raising the other towards the heavens.

At the same time Hao Xuan felt something stir in the air around him, everyone did including the Emperor and all those watching far and wide. It felt like an invisible shockwave passing through everything all at once...something had changed.

Within the Demigod's hand a bolt of white lightning was birthed, and within the Warlock's hand a magic circle with nine rotating runes.

Somewhere within the Abyss the old witch suddenly opened her crooked eyes, "It has been done..."

**

When they touched Hao Xuan both versions of him stepped into this reality, somehow becoming 'him' while he was still there. Three of him existed at one point in time, a paradox wrapped within an anomaly.

The Emperor paused for the shortest of moments, [Three Souls in One] and the energy of the hammer suddenly changed to something completely different.

Jin Wang's already furrowed brow deepened even more upon sensing the change in the Emperor's energy, 'What did he do just now? Why does he seem so...happy?'

On one hand, he could feel a strong power building up in Hao Xuan's body but on the other hand, the Emperor was...waiting for it?

'No no no, something's not right! I overlooked something big!' a terrible feeling overtook Jin Wang as he racked his brain for answers.

He quickly thought back to everything that had happened since they first entered the Silent Chamber, hoping to find whatever it was that he had overlooked but in the end, it was a single sentence that caught his attention and kept repeating in his mind.

It was Hyde's warning, 'My father does not do anything without a reason. It's all-'

"It's all a part of his plan!" he mumbled in shock, "It was all a trick! He wanted me here, he wanted me to intervene because he wanted exactly this outcome! Hao Xuan! DON'T-"

Jin Wang gathered all his strength and threw himself at the barrier, unlocking the final seal that held back his real body, the body of a Titan! It was certain to destroy him and almost everyone else in the vicinity, but this was the only thing he could think of.

A final hail mary.

The space began to distort and time almost came to a standstill while the hammer was mere inches away from striking Hao Xuan's head. Jin Wang's body began to transform but it still wasn't sufficiently powerful.

And if that wasn't enough, a streak of black light snaked through all that chaos and impacted against the hammer, right as it connected with Hao Xuan.

It was an eruption of energies the likes of which had never been seen before, mainly because it should not have been possible.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

Everything went dark.

The 'Silent Chamber' burst open causing the planet, the pyramid, and everything outside of it to be wiped away in the blink of an eye. The shockwave carried on and destroyed the moons in the orbit before shooting towards the neighboring planets.

The entire system was beginning to collapse like a poorly set up game of dominoes.

And in its place, only four entities remained floating in the void of space.

Jin Wang's half-transformed monstrous form, Mr. Hyde in his soul form, the mangled and badly damaged body of Cerberus, and a naked human form.
