Chapter 668 — The Demon King Breaks Free of the Seal
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 4
The giant infant reached out and seized the middle-aged emperor. The emperor struggled, could not break free, and sneered, "I am only thought-consciousness. What can you do to me?
" Crunch.
The infant bit off half his body in one bite, then swallowed him down in another. "Not tasty.
No human flavor, no ghost flavor either.
. . What is going on?
" A head grew from the infant's neck — the Crimson Emperor's head, growing from small to large. The infant flew into a rage, raised its fists, and rained down blows like a storm, until at last it drove him out of its body once more. The Crimson Emperor scrambled up and cried loudly, "I told you, I am thought-consciousness, not the true Crimson Emperor.
You cannot eat—" Smack— The infant clapped him under its palm, and the mountains trembled.
The infant lifted its hand; the Crimson Emperor lay spread-eagled beneath the enormous palm print. In the distance, the Heavenly Duke's clone wanted to shout a warning but dared not raise his voice: "Crimson Emperor, do not struggle, do not talk back. Once he tires of playing, he will stop. " The Crimson Emperor got up, furious: "Do you know who We are? You—" Smack! The Crimson Emperor lay flat again, the palm print deeper.
He struggled out and said, "We—" Smack!
Smack!
Smack! The infant struck him no one knew how many times, until the Heavenly Duke's clone watched with his heart in his throat.
At last the sturdy, snow-pure, adorable baby lost interest in the Crimson Emperor.
The Heavenly Duke's clone crept forward, pulled the Crimson Emperor up out of the ground, and whispered, "In this sealed continent, do not resist him. Resist him and you will be beaten. Alone, I cannot break the Earth Earl's seal and the Great Brahma Heaven King Buddha's suppression, but now that you are here, I have some confidence. Do not make a sound, lest we alarm this Demon King of Havoc. We move together. " The Crimson Emperor said, "I am only the Crimson Emperor's thought-consciousness. I have little power. I fear I cannot break the Earth Earl's seal or the Great Brahma's suppression. " The Heavenly Duke's clone laughed. "If it were only the Earth Earl's seal, it could not have held me.
The crux is the Great Brahma Heaven King Buddha. In the past this old Buddha was most respectful to me, addressing me as 'Daoist brother,' but now no matter how I call him he pays no heed — most likely he has gone sleepwalking again. This great Buddha of his is manifested in a dream; he too is thought-consciousness.
You hold him off, and I can break the Earth Earl's seal. It need not be a great breach — only a crack, and we can seize the chance and escape. " The Crimson Emperor's eyes lit up. He bowed and said, "I place my hopes in you, Daoist brother. . . " "Quiet. Do not alarm that Demon King of Havoc. " The two looked toward the infant Shen Fengqing.
The sturdy little fellow was crawling over the mountains and rivers of the Shen-character continent on hands and knees, trying to crawl out of the Shen-character seal, but wherever he crawled the Shen-character mountain range shifted to match, so that he could never escape.
"Now!
" shouted the Heavenly Duke's clone. The Crimson Emperor shot into the air at once, charging the great Buddha in the sky. His body shook, and he manifested three heads and six arms. The great Buddha above the Shen-character continent suddenly blazed with Buddha-light, Buddha-sound rose in a great swell, and countless Sanskrit characters swirled around the Buddha with a clatter, then pressed down from above. "Great Brahma, Daoist brother, your Neither Perception Nor Non-Perception is no match for my Three Primes' undying divine consciousness!
" Both were thought-consciousness; they collided, and the Heavenly Duke's clone felt the pressure lift at once.
