Chapter 1332 — The Spirit Finger Shatters the Primordial
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 3
Xu Shenghua and Lan Yutian, struck by a sudden flash of understanding, bowed low to the white-haired elder and gave him thanks.
The elder lifted his staff and gave it the slightest flick, and the Chaos Sea split open, revealing a road. Hastily the two led the three thousand divine beings and the giant beasts into the Chaos Sea, where they saw the chaotic qi on either side rearing up like cliffs, sheer beyond measure and dreadful to behold. Were that chaotic qi to come pressing down, they would all be ground to powder and assimilated into chaos itself!
Once they had entered the sea, the white-haired elder planted his staff in the ground and said, "My place here is rather shabby.
There used to be somewhere to put one's feet up, but then Heaven Venerable Mu arrived, and it collapsed. " Xu Shenghua said in astonishment, "Sect Master Shen has been here?
He tore your place down?
" The white-haired elder said helplessly, "Isn't that so? He saw I had set the eggshell down here, assumed I no longer wanted it, and simply carried it off. What he did not know was that I left the eggshell behind because I relied upon it to hold this ore lode steady.
After he took it, this place caved in and became a sea of chaos.
" Lan Yutian laughed.
"That is exactly my brother's way.
How should we address you, Elder? " "Everyone calls me Taiyi," said the white-haired elder with a smile.
"The war of the Heaven Venerables is about to begin.
" Xu Shenghua's heart turned cold.
Any name that carried the prefix Tai belonged to a formidable old monster—the Great Emperor, Taichu—beings who had existed since the most ancient of times! Others, even the oldest of the ancient gods, had no Tai in their names: Tu Bo, the Lord of Heaven, the Mother Earth—not one of them bore it. This old man was called Taiyi; he was surely a figure of the same age as Taichu and the Great Emperor—perhaps even older!
Lan Yutian, however, did not think so far ahead.
They raised their heads and looked up, and there in the sky above, the divine consciousness of Divine Emperor Langxuan was charging toward the mother beast, which was shielded by layer upon layer of Void Beasts.
All at once the countless Void Beasts lifted their eyelids and bared ferocious maws, shrieking with a sound so piercing it battered his divine consciousness. But how mighty was the divine consciousness of Divine Emperor Langxuan?
It swept forth in vast, rolling waves, and in an instant the countless Void Beasts lost their wits and tumbled from the sky like rain.
Divine Emperor Langxuan was worthy of the name of Heaven Venerable: with his divine consciousness alone, without expending the least mana, he rendered all the uncanny arts of these incomparably formidable Void Beasts utterly useless.
His divine consciousness went straight to the Void Mother Beast and, deep as an abyss and vast as a sea, poured into her brain.
Divine Emperor Langxuan smiled. "Little junior, last time you had the luck to slip away from me.
Now there is nowhere left for you to run. " "Is that so?
" The terrifying divine consciousness hidden within the Void Mother Beast's brain erupted, and in a single instant it shattered the divine consciousness of Divine Emperor Langxuan; the next moment that consciousness came gushing out of the mother beast's mind and hurled itself back at him. Divine Emperor Langxuan's expression changed drastically—the consciousness surging toward him was even stronger than his own, and at once he understood exactly who the mother beast's master was.
"This mother beast is already in the Great Emperor's grip! When I met her last time, her master was still the mount of Heaven Venerable Mu; now it has become the Great Emperor!
" His reaction was swift beyond words: instantly his divine consciousness formed itself into a defensive formation, and at the same moment one heavenly palace after another leapt out behind him, linking into a single Heavenly Court.
