Chapter 1633 — Victory and Defeat in the Space of a Lightning Flash
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 3 of 5
The divine whip was like a python, constricting tighter and tighter, squeezing the Heavenly Lord's neck thinner and thinner!
Shen Mu turned a blind eye. The stele forest around him collapsed, leaving only the ground beneath his feet utterly unmoved.
"Langxuan, back when you and I explored together the perils beneath the Ancestral Court's Jade Pool, and encountered the master of that Dao Fruit of yours, I greatly admired your domineering spirit."
Shen Mu said unhurriedly, "You refused the Dao Fruit master's temptation and struck him down into the destruction kalpa of the prehistoric universe. At that time, you were full of spirit and vigor—how magnificent! Why is it that today you have lost that sharpness and become Hao Tianzun's dog? And Hao Tianzun has become the dog of the young master of the Miluo Palace—you are not even his equal. What is the reason that has made you so dispirited?"
"Mu Tianzun, you will never become one of the Ten Tianzuns."
Langxuan tightened the divine whip and sneered, "If you became one of the Ten Tianzuns, you would understand my choice. For us Ten Tianzuns, there are no ideals, no aspirations—only interests. For my own interests, I suppressed the Dao Fruit master and forcibly devoured his Dao Fruit; I can also, for my own interests, pledge allegiance to Hao Tianzun. By the same reasoning, Hao Tianzun will also, for his own interests, pledge allegiance to the young master of the Miluo Palace!"
Shen Mu's expression darkened. "I understand now..."
Before his words had faded, suddenly within his Primal Embryo Divine Treasury domain, forty-nine Heavenly Dao Supreme Treasures fell down. Accompanying the Heavenly Dao Supreme Treasures in their descent were the Ancestral Court's God-Slaying Platform, and upon that platform, the two God-Slaying Mystic Blades!
The moment the God-Slaying Mystic Blades appeared, the other forty-nine Heavenly Dao Supreme Treasures rumbled, and the Heavenly Dao quaked!
The God-Slaying Mystic Blades were precisely the fiftieth Heavenly Dao—Heaven's Slaughter!
The mystic blades appeared, completing the fifty Heavenly Daos!
The Heavenly Lord immediately sensed those fifty Heavenly Dao Supreme Treasures. He secretly channeled his mind, and the fifty Heavenly Dao Supreme Treasures came shrieking out of Shen Mu's Primal Embryo Divine Treasury, slashing toward the golden rope above his head and the divine whip coiled around his neck!
The Karma Fire Merit Stele beneath Langxuan Divine Emperor's rear immediately collapsed. His feet touched the ground. His primal spirit turned in that instant and struck, attacking both the Heavenly Lord and A'Chou and the Earth Earl simultaneously!
This strike was magnificent and overwhelming, bringing the Dao Realm divine ability of the Primordial Dao to its absolute limit!
At the same time, his Great Heavenly Court spun with a roar, and waves of incomparably terrifying power poured into his physical body, mobilizing all his cultivation to attack Shen Mu!
He would not only slay the Heavenly Lord and A'Chou—he would also slay Shen Mu!
Yet in the very instant he made his move, the spinning Dao Fruit suddenly halted. Langxuan Divine Emperor immediately felt that his comprehension of the Primordial Dao had suddenly vanished without a trace, not a shred remaining!
Only the Divine Origin Finger, which he had comprehended through his insights into the Primordial Dao, remained. Yet at this moment, the Dao Realm divine ability of the Primordial Dao that his primal spirit deployed, and the thirty-fifth heaven Heavenly Dao Realm divine ability that his physical body deployed, had all lost their power!
The Divine Origin Finger was his first heaven of the Dao Realm, a supreme Primordial divine ability he had comprehended himself. After that, he had long been unable to comprehend a second heaven.
Until he and Shen Mu entered the fragments of the Great Luo Heaven beneath the Jade Pool, and obtained that Dao Fruit.
