Chapter 954 — This Man's Heart-Demon Tribulation
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 4
The youth drew his sword, and its light met Luo Wushuang's blade-light!
Luo Wushuang was worthy of his name as the Heavenly Court's mightiest divine blade — one blade that changed ten thousand ways, miraculous beyond measure!
His divine blade had reached the sixteenth heaven of the Dao of the Blade; he had entered the Dao through the blade, and when his swordplay unfolded, every flourish was a firmament of the blade-Dao!
Yet the youth on the chest was extraordinarily powerful in his own right. A single sword parried his ever-changing techniques and struck straight at the flaws in his forms!
Before long, Luo Wushuang was drenched in blood!
On the tower ship, Shen Mu was baffled: "In Luo Wushuang's heart, I am actually this powerful?
" Ahead of the ship, the two figures crossed like lightning, the void lighting up as blade and sword clashed in blinding flashes, and the firmament of Luo Wushuang's blade-Dao grew mightier and mightier; his one divine blade spanned the sky. But the youthful Shen Mu could always find the gaps in his swordplay — every time the sword-light flashed, another wound appeared on Luo Wushuang's body. In Luo Wushuang's Dao-heart, Shen Mu was precisely such a being.
On that night at the end of the Upper Sovereign era, in the darkness, Shen Mu had stood upon a chest and cut off his arm with one stroke of the sword! That figure had been branded into his Dao-heart ever since.
In the forty thousand years that followed, he had cultivated himself into a Blade God — the one and only Blade God of the Heavenly Court — and could even clash head-on with the Mystic God-Slaying Blade on the God-Slaying Platform.
Yet he had never once walked out from under Shen Mu's shadow.
The stronger his power, the stronger his blade-Dao, and the stronger became the heart-demon Shen Mu in his heart! And now, in the Great Void, the demon in his heart had stepped out of his Dao-heart and become all too real! Yun Chuxiu cried out in excitement: "Divine Blade Luo, only by killing the true Heavenly Venerable Mu can you ever escape your heart demon!
