" The forty-nine gods nodded, and Heavenly Venerable Shenqi Yu said, "Back then though Heavenly Venerable Fire struck first, Heavenly Venerable Yue dodged his blow, and it was you who succeeded first.
" Divine Emperor Langxuan smiled faintly, then erupted and cried, "Strike!
" With a whoosh his body burst apart, countless peach blossoms and leaves and branches filling the sky, then those blossoms and branches and leaves were shattered in the music, while the divine consciousness of Divine Emperor Langxuan drove straight in, charging into Shen Mu's divine treasure domain! At the same time the forty-nine gods struck together, in an instant forming the Xuandu World to enclose Shen Mu's divine treasure domain within!
The music swelled, the ten thousand li of peach forest seemed to boil, within the music countless cross-sections of space wove and crossed, Heavenly Venerable Yue stroked the zither, every kind of tone bursting forth at the same moment, the five notes and twelve pitches, Gong and Shang and Jiao and Zhi and Yu, Huangzhong and Dalu and Taicu and Jiazhong, bursting together!
The Xuandu World formed by the gods shattered at once, god after god flew up, then were hewn to pieces within the music! Countless severed limbs filled the sky, and the voice of the Ancestral God King was heard howling in rage, "Heavenly Venerable Xiao, you bastard--" His broken Heavenly Way rose to the sky like seven-colored streams of light, rushed out of the peach forest, leapt among the stars in the sky, and swiftly vanished.
And the divine consciousness of Divine Emperor Langxuan charged into the divine treasure domain, heading straight for the brow of Heavenly Venerable Yue, yet charge as he might, what faced him was ever Shen Mu.
He drew nearer and nearer to Shen Mu, yet what met his consciousness was Shen Mu's palm.
Shen Mu spread his five fingers, and Tai Di's divine art emerged in his palm, the Great Luo supreme divine consciousness. Divine Emperor Langxuan's consciousness surged and broke through one Great Luo Heaven, but behind it lay a second Great Luo Heaven.
He pressed onward, breaking through one Great Luo Heaven after another, smashing through a hundred and more in succession, until at last Shen Mu seemed unprepared, yet at that moment he saw Shen Mu holding a hairpin between his fingers.
A peachwood hairpin.
The utterly ordinary hairpin that Heavenly Venerable Yue, lover of peach blossoms, had made for Heavenly Venerable Ling. "Langxuan, your divine consciousness can break Heavenly Venerable Yue's Way of Space, but Heavenly Venerable Ling's Immutable divine art can break your divine consciousness.
" Shen Mu shook the peachwood hairpin, and the divine consciousness of Divine Emperor Langxuan crumbled to earth and fell to pieces!
In the very instant his consciousness collapsed, he heard the cry of the Ancestral God King, and wondered in confusion, "Why did that fellow Heavenly Venerable Xiao never strike? " Shen Mu put away the hairpin, in that brief instant the Ancestral God King and Divine Emperor Langxuan had each suffered greatly, one losing his forty-nine gods to the blade, the other having his consciousness pared away.
They would not return here in a short time.
Now only one man remained.
Shen Mu looked into the peach forest, where Heavenly Venerable Shenqi Yu stood towering and still, leaning upon the Yuanmu without moving.
Heavenly Venerable Yue's music surged, string after string of light turned to strings of space leaping about him, yet all were blocked by the Yuanmu.
Heavenly Venerable Shenqi Yu's gaze was幽 deep, flames seeming to dance in his eyes as he watched Shen Mu and Heavenly Venerable Yue.
He seemed able to see through Shen Mu's divine treasure domain, seizing precisely upon the flaws of Shen Mu and Heavenly Venerable Yue.
"Heavenly Venerable Hao's dao wound is healed!
