The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 3 of 3
I have only this one realm, the Spirit Embryo — whether the heavenly palaces or the Heavenly Court, they are merely flowers added to brocade.
" The Woodcutter Sage could bear it no longer; he picked up his axe and chased after him. Shen Mu flicked his sleeve, and a wild gale wrapped the Woodcutter Sage up and flung him away, to who knew where. The Black Tiger God woke and called out: "Don't worry, junior apprentice brother!
With me here, the old man won't get lost! " With that, it shot off in a puff of smoke to search for the Woodcutter Sage. Shen Mu laughed uproariously and left together with Chi Xiu the divine being.
The Woodcutter Sage, tumbled giddy by that wild gale, did not land until quite a while later; he could not help being shocked: "Could this brat truly have walked out a path of his own?
" Chi Xiu the divine being clicked his tongue in awe as well — Shen Mu's divine powers were indeed mighty and wondrous.
The Woodcutter Sage was the most learned of men and the most skilled at unraveling divine powers; though his cultivation realm was not high, there was no divine power under heaven that he could not unravel. Yet with a single flick of his sleeve, Shen Mu had sent him flying, and the Woodcutter Sage had not unraveled that divine power in the least — which showed how extraordinary it was.
"The deepest reaches of Fengdu are where the Heavenly King Di Yiyue dwells.
" Chi Xiu the divine being pointed ahead; Shen Mu looked and saw the Heavenly Gate of the Nether Capital standing silently in the Ninth Divine City of Fengdu. Beyond the city there was also a stretch of Nether Sea, which Di Yiyue had presumably built in imitation of the Nether Capital's Nether Sea, only it was not quite the same as the Nether Emperor's Nether Sea.
"Sister Di Yiyue, Shen Mu has come to call on you!
" Shen Mu called out. Di Yiyue's voice came from afar, faint and wistful: "Might we not meet?
I have let you down, and I always feel I have no face to see you.
" Shen Mu smiled: "This time, I have come to unravel the Nether Emperor's divine powers.
" "Why did my younger brother not say so at once? " Di Yiyue said with a hearty laugh: "Then come in quickly! "
