Chapter 1252 — The Might of the Dao Domain
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 3
On the city walls the celestial soldiers and generals could not help but be stricken with horror, staring blankly at the scene.
The general guarding the gate promptly gave the order, dispatching a squad of gods and devils out of the city to investigate.
At that very moment, before the Divine City there appeared string after string of enormous footprints, as though an invisible giant were sprinting; and not only that, wherever that giant ran, shocking rifts abruptly tore open in the air—fissures dozens of li long! The squad of gods and devils was torn apart in the next instant, dying inexplicably on the spot.
"What manner of demon dares to whip up such turmoil?
" the gatekeeping general cried out sharply.
Boom!
The void shook violently; a seal in the shape of a dragon's head abruptly surfaced, and then an enormous palm print appeared as well, the tremor so great that even within the Divine City they felt the violent fluctuation of space! What was more, the footprints seemed to be walking backward, and at great speed, heading straight for the Divine City.
"Those footprints—what in the world are they?
" Dread gripped the hearts of the gods.
Then a god of the Heavenly Eye Clan sent his gaze piercing through the void-darkness, fathoming Youdu and beholding the scenes within it, and cried out sharply: "Mighty ones are battling inside Taixu Youdu! Their strength is so great it can affect reality from within Youdu! Everyone, be on your guard!
" Bang bang bang—a succession of spatial tremors rolled in; before the Divine City, all manner of marks appeared, fist prints, blade scars, formation runes—something was brawling furiously in Youdu, and it was spilling over into reality with staggering force!
Suddenly Bai Yuqiong's voice rang out through the Divine City: "Xiluo Shimen, hear my command! Raise the guardian formation!
Whatever breaks in from Youdu is to be killed on sight! " The soldiers took the order and activated the formation at once, standing in full battle array.
The guardian formations of each Divine City had all been designed by the Four Great Celestial Masters, and their power was extraordinary; though these masters were not the foremost formation masters of the Heavenly Court, their attainments in formations were nonetheless nothing to be slighted.
If the enemy truly was a mighty one come from Youdu, he would surely fall into the formation they had devised, and might even be annihilated in a single stroke! The gods and devils in the city each breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Yuqiong mounted the gate tower and looked down from on high, her heart trembling faintly: "This newcomer's strength is no small matter!
But this should be the territory Yin Tianzi guards—how could anyone have entered his domain? " Bai Yuqiong said in a deep voice, "Scry the scenes of Youdu and report them to me.
I want to see which masters are clashing!
" The Heavenly Eyes in the army all began probing Youdu, searching.
In truth there was no need to search: the battle between Shen Mu and Yu Wufei was so vast in scale that it affected reality itself, and finding them was not hard.
What was hard was seeing their faces clearly.
Both were formidable in cultivation, and neither wished his true face seen; moreover they moved too fast—even the Heavenly Eyes of Xiluo Shimen could not make out who they were. And the divine abilities of Youdu held an uncanny property: whoever saw their faces would forget them.
Bai Yuqiong waited long and still no report came from the Heavenly Eyes, and she wondered inwardly, "Could that pretty boy Yin Tianzi be trying to scheme against me again?
" Just then the earth before the Divine City abruptly twisted and deformed; a vast, boundless power came surging out of Taixu Youdu, remaking the land, lifting the earth into the air, yin and yang qi diffusing everywhere as all manner of strange forces burst forth.
