The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 4
Tubo looked at the spot between Shen Mu's brows and said, "What is in your brow is, of course, the Divine Son of Youdu. How could I not know, when I suppressed him with my own hands? This willow leaf also bears the Heavenly Duke's seal. You have met the Heavenly Duke, and he resealed the Divine Son of Youdu for you, haven't he? But the strange thing is, why are you able to control the power of the Divine Son of Youdu.
. .
" He had not given this much thought earlier, but now that he reflected on it, Shen Mu's ability to summon the Divine Son's power was indeed an extraordinary affair. In Tubo's view, Shen Mu was bound to be assimilated by the Divine Son sooner or later; yet in the battle before Jade Lock Pass just now, Shen Mu had managed to unleash the Divine Son's power and then cause that power to return into its seal. There was truly something sly at work here.
Shen Mu smiled and said, "Naturally, someone helped me.
" Tubo pondered for a moment, then said, "Let me go in and see which fellow Daoist it is.
" He stood motionless, while in the Shen Continent the ground suddenly surged with magma, turning into a lake of molten rock. The lava in the lake swirled as a pair of nine-curved horns rose spinning from its midst, followed by the towering, colossal body of the Lava Tubo. The Lava Tubo stopped turning, and his massive frame stepped out of the lava lake; the lake surface at once dried up, while magma endlessly dripped from his body, igniting the land around him. The big-headed doll was just burying his head in the Life-Slaying Cauldron to see what other treasures were inside, while the Crimson Emperor sat beside the Great Sun Star Lord, listening to a story with relish, and the Heavenly Duke was hiding behind a mountain range.
The Lava Tubo glanced around, startled, and blinked his three eyes in bewilderment. The Shen Continent had been forged from a dark continent within his own horn, refined into a seal and turned into a jade pendant.
Later, when Shen Fengqing had escaped time and again, he had been forced to deepen the seal, driving the jade pendant into Shen Mu's third eye. Even though the seal was of his own making, he had never imagined that this sealed continent would have become so clamorous and lively. He looked up at the sky; the patterns in the sky revealed three seals in different styles—one was his own Youdu seal, another was the Buddhist seal of Mahabrahma Heavenly King Buddha, and yet another was a Xuandu seal.
"Mahabrahma Heavenly King Buddha.
" Tubo looked at the great Buddha in the air and nodded. Shen Mu had once gone to the twenty deva heavens of the Buddhist realm, lost control of his demonic nature, and assimilated half of Mahabrahma Heaven, turning it into Youdu. So it was no wonder that Mahabrahma Heavenly King Buddha's seal should be here. He then looked at the Great Sun Star Lord and moved his gaze away; the Great Sun Star Lord had died long ago, and had most likely been captured and brought here just now.
"Crimson Emperor. " His gaze fell on the Crimson Emperor.
"In the Crimson Radiance Era, the Crimson Emperor found a malformed microcosm, away from Xuandu's light and beyond Youdu's jurisdiction. Even I could not find where the Crimson Emperor met his end. I never expected to see an ancient fellow Daoist here.
" His mind in a flurry, the Crimson Emperor hastily made salutations and said, "Dao-brother, I used my own body to mend that malformed microcosm as the final refuge for my people.
By now, my soul has long been scattered. " The Lava Tubo said, "When you used your undying divine sense to inform the Bright Emperor, I detected the fluctuations of that undying divine sense.
" He turned to look at Shen Fengqing, who had just pulled his head out of the Life-Slaying Cauldron.
The big doll was hiding behind the great cauldron, peeking out at him, rubbing his hands and feet anxiously like a cat about to pounce.
