This was power from another dimension crushing down on him. If they had been outside, Chen Cheng probably could not have frozen the War Horseman with the Five-Element Light Wheel.
But within his Divine Kingdom, with heaven and earth on his side, even though the War Horseman was a True God, he had no choice but to submit to Chen Cheng's suppression and remain frozen.
It was precisely this confidence that had allowed Chen Cheng to say back in the Land of Sin that he could face the Four Horsemen alone.
His confidence came from nothing else but the absolute control he held within his Divine Kingdom.
Now that he had frozen the War Horseman, Chen Cheng had to consider how to destroy him.
But he faced exactly the same problem Old Ke and the others had first encountered years ago: even after imprisoning a True God, he had no means of attack capable of utterly destroying a deity with an Undefeated Body.
For a deity, self and law had blended like water and milk. Deities were incarnations of the rules themselves.
No matter how powerful an attack's energy was, once it touched the level of rules, its energy properties were greatly weakened. Its feeble law properties could then do little harm to a True God.
Old Ke and the others had turned to the laws of reality. Objects needed energy to move, so they had stripped the deities of theirs.
The deities who had entered the Present World were severed from their own power, their energy sources cut off completely, leaving them living statues.
Chen Cheng, however, did not have that technology. Nor could he sever the Four Horsemen from their source of power: they were not foreign True Gods, but phenomena of law that had evolved within Karmak
