Chapter 1115 — The White-Robed Heavenly Master Appears
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 3
To rise to the third Heavenly Master, one can well imagine how high Bai Yuqiong's wisdom must be!
Though in the Heavenly Court the Four Great Heavenly Masters rank a little below the Four Directional Great Emperors, such as the Red Emperor and the Black Emperor, they are by and large figures on equal footing.
More to the point, all Four Great Heavenly Masters are of the Imperial Throne realm!
Que Feiyin, reincarnated into this life as Bai Yuqiong, is clever and quick-witted, and must likewise be one skilled at borrowing the momentum of others; otherwise she could never have worked her way into the ranks of the Heavenly Court's Four Great Heavenly Masters. Yan'er looked at him with pleading eyes.
Shen Mu smiled and said, "There is no need to worry.
Your mother's reincarnation carries the memories of her former life, and she knows us. By now she must understand why she met us on the Heavenly River in those days, and know who we are.
She knows too that the reason she was plotted against by Yin Tianzi yet did not lose her memories of a past life was that jade pendant I gave her.
We need only find this Heavenly Master and tell her that she is the reincarnation of the Southern Emperor; she ought to agree to die one more time. " Joy filled Yan'er's heart. Long Qilin blinked and thought, "The Cult Master is deceiving my wife again. And the crux of it is that my mother-in-law does not know she is one soul of the Southern Emperor!
She is already an existence of the Imperial Throne realm, with her own thoughts and consciousness; why would she be willing to die again?
To awaken the Vermilion Bird soul will be difficult! " Shen Mu understood this as well; he simply had not told Yan'er, lest she begin to fret again. Suddenly the sky darkened.
Shen Mu's heart gave a start, and he was just about to have Yan'er take out the lantern when he realized that he was not in the ancient past at all, but had already returned to his own age; he could not help laughing at himself.
"Ever since I crossed back into the ancient past, my nerves have been stretched taut, and even after returning to the present I still have not gathered myself. " He looked up, and the smile on his face slowly froze. What blotted out the sky was a colossal body, its head out of all proportion to its frame, the head larger even than the body, and behind its skull grew bone spikes like mountains of bone, dense beyond counting; a light shake set the whole range behind its head swaying.
It was a giant beast that had come out of the void, with a single enormous eye in its face, its pupil layered many times over, ring upon ring of iris narrowing inward without cease!
It had six legs, with thin membranes of flesh between them; once it had bored out of the void it abruptly spread those fleshy wings, beat them, and cut across the sky, flying swiftly away! A Void Beast!
Shen Mu was struck dumb, staring blankly as the Void Beast flew off into the distance. The overlord among the ancient giant beasts that dwell in the Ancestral Court had appeared in the Yuan Realm, appeared in the skies above Jingping!
In that hurried moment he glimpsed a woman standing on the Void Beast's back; dimly it seemed to be Divine King Langwo! Shen Mu strode quickly in pursuit, and all at once saw tower ships and great warships of the Heavenly Court split open the sky of the Yuan Realm, banners streaming, drums rolling like thunder that came down from the heavens.
Giant gods pounded the great drums at the prows, and on the decks the heavenly soldiers and generals shouted in wave upon wave as they gave chase to the Void Beast.
"Divine King Langwo, she has found the position of the Ancestral Court, and summoned a Void Beast out from there.
