The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 4
"The reformation of the Dharma touches the interests of the god-demons. To reform the Dharma is to change the Dao. When the Dao changes, if the god-demons cannot adapt, they will not be tolerated by the Dao."
The Imperial Preceptor said, "There must be deeper reasons still, but we have too little information to analyze the truth. Your Majesty, I need the Human Emperor to step forward in person."
Emperor Yanfeng looked at him.
The Imperial Preceptor gazed into the distance and murmured, "Only if the Human Emperor steps forward in person can all the holy lands and all the powerful experts obey the call and annihilate the Heavens Above! Only the Human Emperor, revered by all sects and schools, can make them follow with utter devotion!"
Ling Yuxiu's mind went blank. The Human Emperor of this generation—was that not Shen Mu?
The Human Emperor's Seal—was that not in Shen Mu's hands?
If so, did that not mean Shen Mu must also go to attack the Heavens Above?
"I will go see the Human Emperor!" The Imperial Preceptor rose and departed.
And at that very moment, in the mountain villa, Shen Mu was accompanying Si Yunxiang in cultivating her primordial spirit. The two of them roamed the world in spirit form, and when they arrived at a certain place, they suddenly saw mountains crumble and the earth split. A graceful peak, somewhere unknown, was suddenly rent apart from within, and a massive stone statue rose slowly from the mountain.
"What is happening? Is this the Desolate Ruins?"
The two were astonished. Then they caught the scent of incense, and their hearts jolted: "We just lit the Soul-Guiding Incense and came out to play. It cannot possibly have burned out so quickly. Someone must have blown the Soul-Guiding Incense all the way down in one breath!"
Their primordial spirits were swiftly recalled by the Soul-Guiding Incense, returning to their bodies. Shen Mu opened his eyes and saw the village head, the butcher, the silent craftsman, and the others all present—even Old Master Huo had come!
