Chapter 1030 — Ambushing That Heavenly Emperor
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 4
They had already collected most of it when, at that very moment, an inexplicable force surged in, tugging at all of the Grand Emperor's divine consciousness and sweeping it away with a roar. Even the consciousness that had already been gathered into the gourds was pulled out.
Streams of light rushed forth from the gourd mouths, turning in midair into ten thousand gorgeous rays that blazed away. "Damnation!
" The Grand Emperor's consciousness shook, sending peals like a thousand thunders crashing at once into the minds of the white-robed divine beings.
"Seal the Heaven-Knowing Spirit Gourds this instant! " The white-robed divine beings clapped the lids onto the spirit gourds at once, but the strange summons was so powerful that it lifted even these Heaven-Knowing Spirit Gourds off the ground, flying eastward.
From the Heavenly Lord corpse chunks, the Grand Emperor's consciousness flew out uncontrolled, seized by Shen Mu's improved Soul-Guiding Art. The white-robed divine beings each clutched a great gourd and channeled their magical power to hold their ground, yet still many of the Heaven-Knowing Spirit Gourds flew away.
"Useless things!
" Suddenly the consciousness within one gourd flew out and drilled into the body of a white-robed divine being. After the Grand Emperor had thus borrowed this life, that divine being was immediately borne up by Shen Mu's Soul-Guiding Art and sent hurtling eastward.
At the same time, the other gourds burst open, and the Grand Emperor's consciousness inside them flew out, all converging into the body of the white-robed divine being he had possessed.
That white-robed divine being was a True God, unable to resist Shen Mu's summons, dragged madly toward the Fallen God Valley. The valley was exceedingly far from there, but at this summoning speed, it would not be long before he was hauled into the valley and refined by Shen Mu!
"You little whelp! Do you think you can rob me of my divine consciousness?
You underestimate me!
" The white-robed divine being raged, mustering every scrap of magical power in that borrowed body to suppress its flight, but still he was pulled eastward. Ahead appeared a divine city—the garrison of the Heavenly Court's army of gods and demons stationed in the Primordial World.
The white-robed divine being's eyes brightened; he abruptly opened his mouth, and a flood of light burst forth like a waterfall torrent, hurtling toward the city.
The radiance shrieked down, blazing and brilliant, engulfing the whole city. More than a hundred thousand gods and demons in the city had no time to react before they were drowned in that light.
Like a thousand tendrils, the light bored into their eyes, ears, mouths, and noses, and at once all of them were seized by the Soul-Guiding Art, leaping into the air and flying toward the Fallen God Valley. The commander guarding the divine city was a great expert of the Lingxiao Realm; he immediately activated his divine powers, but in the next moment he, too, was possessed by the Grand Emperor's consciousness.
The Grand Emperor controlled the hundred thousand-plus gods and demons as they rose together, their bodies interweaving in midair to form a great war formation.
The formation flew through the void, a spectacle of overwhelming, soul-shaking grandeur. "Heavenly Lord Mu! You have provoked me again and again.
Today, let me show you the might of an ancient ruler! "
