Chapter 1502 — The Sage of the Celestial Palace Appears
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 3
The canes of the three schoolmasters seemed able to pierce all divine powers and Dao arts, each fall striking a man unerringly and leaving no escape.
And once hit, the Dao heart shattered and they obeyed the schoolmasters' command.
In the blink of an eye, many ancient gods and Creators fell victim, leaving only the Ming Emperor, the Southern Emperor, and Lan Yutian still holding on, while the Lame Elder, in mid-dash, was suddenly rapped on the head and went off chanting too.
Suddenly the Ming Emperor cried out, knocked to the ground by the cane, then the Southern Emperor was felled, and Lan Yutian unleashed his Dao-entry divine power, only to take a lash as he sought to repeat the move once his forms were spent.
When he awoke, he saw the Ming Emperor, the Lame Elder, and the others gathered together, the private school somehow restored around them, and themselves seated once more reading within it! "Strange!
" Lan Yutian thought with a secret start, glancing at his other self, only to see that Yu Tianzun also seated there reading, and his heart died within him. "My other self has been suppressed here for a million years without escape, it seems I cannot escape either.
.

" Shen Mu darted away through the air, and with a thought summoned the divine bow flying to him, then turned, drew, and loosed, and with whistling shots sent the three schoolmasters flying.
The three at once pursued, attacking him from three different directions, and as Shen Mu could not outrun them, he urged forth his primordial embryo divine treasury domain, so that from whatever direction the three schoolmasters attacked, they struck only his front.
Three canes flew up and down, and Shen Mu tossed the divine bow aside while his primordial spirit rose slowly behind him to seize the bow and shoot, while he himself gripped the Glazed Blue Heaven Banner with both hands and fought the three schoolmasters!
The three schoolmasters darted up and down in ceaseless assault, until suddenly Shen Mu failed to guard and took a cane across the forehead. Shen Mu shook his head and smashed that schoolmaster flying with a blow, and with a bang the schoolmaster burst apart.
Crack, crack, two more cane blows landed on his head, and Shen Mu swung the Glazed Blue Heaven Banner crosswise, sweeping the other two schoolmasters flying, their bodies shattering in midair! Shen Mu breathed relief and planted the Blue Heaven Banner, only to see several more schoolmasters descending from the Great Luo Heaven fragment, and his heart chilled.
Yet the three schoolmasters did not attack him again, and one of them waved his sleeve and said, "You bear a lofty one's Dao tree leaf, we cannot do anything to you, enough, you may go.
" Shen Mu touched the willow leaf between his brows and relaxed.
"Luckily before this journey I had Yan'er drag Lan Yutian to shamelessly beg a leaf from Tai Yi, otherwise even I would have fallen here.
.
. " The skill of these schoolmasters was uncannily strange, for once Shen Mu unfolded his primordial embryo divine treasury domain he was all but invincible, and unless crushed by vast mana none could break into his defensive circle.
Such a domain was more perfect even than the Ming Emperor's three heads and six arms, yet these schoolmasters had broken it with ease, and had their canes carried any great force Shen Mu's skull would long since have been shattered. The private school he had smashed was now restored as before, clear reading sounds drifting from within.
Shen Mu spat out a breath of foul air, leaned upon the Glazed Blue Heaven Banner, and walked toward the school again, saying in a deep voice, "Brother Dao, you are an existence who has attained the Dao, why make things hard for us worldly men? Can it be that beings of the last universe epoch are all bullies of the weak?
