The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 4
He had just assimilated Earth Lord Shen Mu when sixty-four demon gods walked out of the darkness—the deified forms of the Nether Capital's sixty-four Great Daos—and together disintegrated Earth Lord Tai Emperor.
Enraged, the Tai Emperor's phantom shot straight at Shen Mu's primordial spirit. "Lord Mu, can you turn yourself into deities and dissolve into separate Great Daos?
" Shen Mu's primordial spirit trembled violently as the Tai Emperor invaded his body. His face contorted, two faces flickering fiercely. At that moment, countless divinities—Heaven Emperor, Earth Lord, Earth Mother, Heaven Yin, and others—descended together, encircling Shen Mu, all reaching out their hands.
"This is inviting you into the jar!
" The many divinities pulled hard. Shen Mu instantly split apart, turning into strands of Great Daos made of countless runes, which were torn away completely, leaving only the Tai Emperor's consciousness!
The Tai Emperor's consciousness was about to charge out when the rune-daos shot into the air and re-coalesced into Shen Mu's body. His palm pressed down from above, while the other divinities thrust their palms forward.
Clang, clang, clang—a cascade of crisp sounds.
A sealed, airtight four-sided wall trapped him within! The Tai Emperor's consciousness dashed about wildly, but could not break through the prison.
Shocked and furious, he cried, "Your primordial spirit is wrong—how can it dissolve on its own?
" "That is because I originally had no soul. I am merely a mass of consciousness.
My soul and spirit were created by me when I opened heaven and earth. " Shen Mu looked up.
The Tai Emperor's consciousness, which had been battling Shu Jun, Yue Tingge, and Luo Wushuang, instantly scattered and rushed outward, no longer daring to fight.
Shen Mu laughed, "Tai Emperor, you are afraid. " "Hmph!
"
