Chapter 1030 — Ambushing That Heavenly Emperor
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
" Divine King Langwo examined the runes formed from his divine consciousness and vital energy.
They were extraordinarily exquisite and complex, but she could not understand them. Shujun was likewise baffled and asked Long Qilin.
Long Qilin glanced over and said, "The Sect Master is revising the Soul-Guiding Art. The Soul-Guiding Art tugs at souls and spirits.
Judging from the runes he is altering, he intends to turn it from guiding souls into guiding divine consciousness.
" "Guiding divine consciousness?
" Divine King Langwo and Divine King Shujun were greatly perplexed.
Was there even such a divine art as guiding divine consciousness? Long Qilin thought for a while and said, "The Soul-Guiding Art should in fact be called the Soul-Snatching Art. It can snatch souls from the Nether Capital and summon the spirits of the dead back to the world of the living.
Later, after the Sect Master improved it, it could summon even fragmented souls.
He is probably trying to develop it further and summon the Grand Emperor's divine consciousness scattered across the Primordial World.
" After a long time, Shen Mu finally finished his calculations. Everyone stared at the magnificent runes floating throughout the treasure chariot, entirely at a loss. Shen Mu checked carefully, corrected several calculation errors, and only then felt fully satisfied. He picked up the jade bottle, stepped outside the chariot, and placed it on the ground of the Fallen God Valley, which had long been leveled to the earth.
Suddenly, his magical power surged to a near-frenzy as he drove the improved Soul-Guiding Art; countless runes whirled up and revolved around the jade bottle. His primordial spirit manifested, a towering figure standing in the chief celestial palace on the Taiji Diagram, beneath the Southern Heavenly Gate.
Weighty Dao words flowed from his mouth as he intoned the mysterious tongue of the Nether Capital, and countless Celestial Yin Realm runes lit up around him, brightening and dimming by turns.
"When I descended this time, the Grand Emperor wanted to kill me and sent out the eleventh Heavenly Lord's fleshly body.
But on the way it met Kaihuang and was slain with a single stroke of his sword.
" While his primordial spirit activated the improved Soul-Guiding Art, his true body smiled. "The Grand Emperor's consciousness was driving a Heavenly Lord corpse. Kaihuang had no idea how to gather up the Grand Emperor's divine consciousness and simply slew it on the spot, scattering that consciousness.
I had no object belonging to the Grand Emperor, so I could not summon his soul. Now, with the consciousness in this jade bottle, I can try to call his divine consciousness here!
" Divine King Langwo followed him onto that open ground and saw that the earth around Shen Mu was covered with countless runes, lighting up one after another and spreading in every direction, the area they covered growing ever wider. Soon the runes spanned a hundred li in every direction, forming an immense formation diagram. Divine King Langwo mused, "The Grand Emperor's divine consciousness within that Heavenly Lord corpse, even if scattered by Kaihuang, will eventually reconverge. He has most likely already gathered it back. " "Elder Sister Divine King, rest assured.
Kaihuang had to use Sword Twenty and then the thirty-four-layered Heavenly Sword Dao to slaughter him. His divine consciousness cannot reassemble any time soon.
Besides.
. .
" As Shen Mu's primordial spirit fully drove the Soul-Guiding Art into operation, countless resplendent runes spun around the jade bottle, imprinting on it one after another. Wave after wave of obscure fluctuations sank into the bottle, then emanated outward in a wondrous rhythm that spread through the surroundings.
Ordinary people could not perceive this rhythm; even Divine King Langwo and Divine King Shujun barely sensed it. "Besides, he came this time to kill me.
Would he so readily withdraw his divine consciousness?
