Chapter 1334 — Piercing Heaven and Earth
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 3
"The Void Mother Beast has refined her body to such smallness, and yet she is far, far stronger than the Void Mother Beast I met the year I first entered the Ancestral Court!
" Shen Mu watched the mother beast come leaping out of the void, and his heart gave a faint shudder. The Great Emperor's move this time was surely meant to take the lives of one or two Heavenly Venerables, to clear away every obstacle to his future re-conquest of heaven and earth!
To the Ten Heavenly Venerables of this day, the Ancient Gods were still their greatest foe; but to the Great Emperor, the Ancient Gods were nothing to fret over — the Ten Heavenly Venerables were the greatest foe of all!
As sovereign of the Primordial Age, he had no lack of means to deal with Heavenly Duke, Earth Earl, and the rest of the Ancient Gods; but against the Ten Heavenly Venerables he had no such confidence.
The strength and the influence of the Ten Heavenly Venerables now stood far above the Ancient Gods'; the reason they had held still was that to destroy the Ancient Gods by force would cost them grievous losses of their own. The Ten Heavenly Venerables were one in appearance and divided at heart, and not one of them wished to be the one who fell.
Whoosh — In the instant the Void Mother Beast sprang out of the void, her figure vanished, like a sheet of clear glass gliding across the sky.
Her body passed through the divine arts of three Heavenly Venerable-level beings and came straight to the back of the Ancestral God King, who was hewing at the Great Emperor with all his strength.
He was alerted in a heartbeat; the cloak behind him flared and swept up with a howl, becoming a Mystic Capital World. When the Void Mother Beast passed through the Mystic Capital World, he sensed her exact position at once.
His Mystic Capital World had been forged by the Heavenly Dao, and mingled within it were all manner of other great daos, akin to a domain; even the Heavenly Duke, seeing it, could not but praise him: "A prodigious rebel indeed.
" Sensing the mother beast, he at once burst forth his primordial spirit, and a whole Heavenly Court surged out with a roar; his primordial spirit stood in the Lingxiao Hall of that Heavenly Court and stamped down a seal with his backhand!
And at that moment the Great Emperor suddenly laughed aloud, shaking off his earlier decline, took a blow from Divine Emperor Langxuan head-on, and pressed in close before the Ancestral God King.
The Heavenly Dao treasure in the Ancestral God King's hand became a heavenly lance and came crashing down; the Great Emperor neither dodged nor flinched, taking the blow upon his own brow, and the Daluo Heaven of Divine Consciousness erupted and charged into the Ancestral God King's Heavenly Court!
Caught in a pincer attack, the Ancestral God King's body suddenly became a streak of flowing light and was drawn by his primordial spirit into the Heavenly Court, where body and primordial spirit merged into one.
At the same time his supreme Heavenly Dao treasure flew back, ringing as it split apart into forty-nine Heavenly Dao treasures that guarded the Heavenly Court, even as they withstood the attacks of the Void Mother Beast and the Great Emperor together.
Boom — The Daluo Heaven of Divine Consciousness descended from the sky and collided with the forty-nine Heavenly Dao treasures.
This was a blow that held the Great Emperor's Dao Fruit of divine consciousness; even Heavenly Venerable Hao, meeting such a blow, would have his primordial spirit imprisoned!
The forty-nine Heavenly Dao treasures were smashed to pieces, fragments of Heavenly Dao treasures strewn everywhere; blood spurted at once from the Ancestral God King's eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, and astonishment showed on his face.
His body and his primordial spirit quaked together, and came near to parting from each other! The Great Emperor had spent a Dao Fruit strike, and its power was truly overbearing — in one blow he had gravely wounded him!
