Chapter 1332 — The Spirit Finger Shatters the Primordial
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 3 of 3
The strike came without warning; even the Great Emperor could not guard against it. With a sharp ding, the finger struck him squarely in the forehead—right where the Primordial Stone of Taichu lay.
The Great Emperor's mind went suddenly blank, and the blow cracked the Primordial Stone apart.
Nothing was amiss on his forehead, yet the back of his skull burst open in a great hole, and a snow-bright radiance, trailing a streak of blood, lit up the heavens!
"You have fused the daos of God King Gong Yun and the Great Emperor? Worthy of their son.
" The Great Emperor gathered up the shattered stone, and it came together once more, whole and complete, still set in his brow. He said in admiration, "If the son Gong Yun bore me still lived, he would have been no whit your inferior.
That is the only move you have, is it not, Langxuan?
So you may die. " In the Chaos Sea, Taiyi sat serene and unruffled, explaining to the bewildered crowd: "Gong Yun was the Great Emperor's wife.
The Great Emperor slaughtered her clansmen, and to have her revenge upon him she took up with Heavenly Emperor Taichu and bore Divine Emperor Langxuan.
" The crowd was dumbfounded. Taiyi said unhurriedly, "Taichu was not yet Heavenly Emperor in those days; nominally he was the Great Emperor's adopted son. That an adopted son should carry on with his foster mother was a scandal even in the most ancient era, and so in the end Taichu killed Gong Yun, lest his dark past become known.
"
