Chapter 1339 — Sending You West

His divine consciousness blasted the void open; the Hundred Thousand Great Black Mountains ahead vanished without a trace, replaced by an incomparably towering head, its hair loose over its shoulders, the back of its skull turned toward him.

"Great Emperor, your wounds are too grave; to lay an illusion to lure me, and still be seen through by me."

Shen Mu smiled and said calmly: "So grievously wounded, and you still dare come looking for me? Not afraid I'll butcher you?"

"Hahaha, Heavenly Venerable Mu, you truly do overestimate yourself!"

The Great Emperor's incomparably towering head turned about, its face covered in scars, a great hole split in its brow; it laughed and said: "These little wounds of mine count for nothing. So long as I have the Taichu Primal Stone, it will not be long before I recover. Heavenly Venerable Mu, hand over the remaining quarter of the primal stone, and I will spare your life!"

"That piece of primal stone — I have already given it to Heavenly Venerable Xiao."

Shen Mu smiled yet not quite smiled: "And as for sparing my life, I fear that with your present self you are hardly capable of it. Great Emperor, I hunted Heavenly Venerable Hao for six hundred thousand li; Taisu rescued him — his fate was good. Today..."

He slowly drew his broken sword and said calmly: "I fear your fate will not be so good."
