Chapter 1344 — Refined into a Treasure

I cannot possibly find countless Creators to offer as sacrifices to me again—I can never return to my peak. Heh heh! Had Hao Tianzun not ground away my head and severed one of my arms, how could I have been wounded to such a degree by the four Heavenly Venerables? " This head of his had been brought forth by visualization and creation from a Taichu Primal Stone; it was not the head of his original body. His original head had already been ground away and refined by Hao Tianzun's great divine ability of Guixu during the Battle of the Great Void!

His new head was no match for the old one.

The Grand Emperor went on: "Moreover, even if I could restore myself to my peak, I still would not be the strongest body.

The Celestial Emperor Taichu's body has always been a cut above mine.

" Shen Mu's heart trembled slightly. Both the Celestial Emperor Taichu and the Grand Emperor bore the title of the strongest body; which of them truly stood above the other had never been decided.

As for the Grand Emperor, though the Creators gnashed their teeth with hatred, they were of one voice regarding his body, all agreeing that it was the strongest in history.

And the Celestial Emperor Taichu's body was, by the consensus of every Heavenly Venerable from Longhan to the present day, the strongest body of all.

Which of these two sacred bodies was the stronger had been impossible to judge. And now the Grand Emperor had admitted with his own mouth that the Celestial Emperor Taichu's body was the stronger—a long-standing enigma was at last resolved.

"Since you refuse to release Cloud Heavenly Venerable's soul, let us make an exchange for Ling Heavenly Venerable instead.

" Shen Mu said with a beaming smile: "When I go to rescue Ling Heavenly Venerable, you let me take her away unchallenged.

" The Grand Emperor's head laughed heartily: "Cloud Heavenly Venerable is dead, after all!

Even if you revive him, it will take him years to cultivate back to the point of contending with the Ten Heavenly Venerables!

But once Ling Heavenly Venerable is rescued by you, her battle power alone is enough to contend with the Ten Heavenly Venerables!

Mu Heavenly Venerable, your plan is well calculated—but I am not stupid either! " Shen Mu flew into a rage, seized the Grand Emperor's head, lifted the great seal aloft, drove the seal, and struck out with a single blow! "Shen! You humiliate me—you are dead!

"
