Chapter 1440 — Taiji Transforms the Myriad Arts
The Herdsman of the Wasteland Page 2 of 2
With the two Heavenly Venerables joining hands, the Guixu Great Abyss at once devoured Tian Gong's head, and more than half of Tian Gong's massive body was swallowed in an instant.
Whoosh— Tian Gong, whose body was immeasurable, was actually swallowed whole by the Guixu Great Abyss! Qiang Tianfei watched with her heart pounding in fright, and awe for this Guixu Great Abyss arose in her.
Yet the Guixu Great Abyss suddenly shook violently; the abyss churned without cease, and abruptly split in two, becoming two Guixus, two abysses!
Qiang Tianfei was dumbstruck, and Shi Qiluo was dumbstruck as well, having never expected such a thing!
They saw a goddess with two faces emerge from the other Guixu Great Abyss, twin lotuses in hand, killing her way out; with a single strike she sent the divine artifact Yutianzun flying!
Within the divine artifact Yutianzun's body, Lady Yuanmu's primordial spirit and Qiang Tianfei's consciousness were nearly dragged out of it, and both were filled with utter shock.
That two-faced goddess wielded the power of life and death, truly formidable; having sent the divine artifact Yutianzun flying, the next moment she smashed Shi Qiluo flat to the ground. With a shake of her lotus, countless petals flew out, surrounding Qiang Tianfei on all sides, attempting to refine and devour her.
"My Dao of consciousness comes from the Dao of Taichu—you cannot restrain me!
" Qiang Tianfei shrieked, fighting her way out through layer upon layer of petals. At the same time, the divine artifact Yutianzun charged over like a wild bull, crashing with a boom into the two-faced goddess and sending her flying; countless divine arts were blasted out with reckless abandon, striking the goddess until she tumbled into the Guixu Great Abyss.
Qiang Tianfei roused her consciousness and struck at the Guixu, while at the same time Shi Qiluo leaped up and thrust the twin lotuses into the divine artifact Yutianzun's hands; the divine artifact Yutianzun gave a heavy sweep, and shattered that Guixu Great Abyss to pieces!
The Empress and Yan Tianfei rushed to the vicinity, but at the sight they instead halted their steps and did not strike at Qiang Tianfei and Shi Qiluo. She too very much wanted to see just how formidable the Taiji Ancient Gods' strength truly was. The Guixu Great Abyss burst apart, turning into a sky-filling storm of flying sand.
From within the flying sand suddenly came a roar like a bull and like a tiger, and two sharp long horns, crooked in nine bends and eighteen turns, pierced out from the flying sand.
About those two long horns flowed a great river of lava, streaming from the tips of the horns down onto a pitch-black head. That massive head slowly rose, higher and higher. Qiang Tianfei and Shi Qiluo stared blankly at this scene, their gazes involuntarily rising along with the head; gradually they saw a Tubo who commanded the sixty-four Great Daos of Youdu, holding the long whip of the Nether River.
Whoosh— The long whip lashed toward them, sending the divine artifact Yutianzun, who had charged forward, flying with a single stroke. The divine artifact Yutianzun spun like a top, flying into the distance.
Shi Qiluo let out a shrill scream.
Lady Yuanmu's primordial spirit, within the divine artifact Yutianzun's body, was caught by that Nether River whip, and her soul at once suffered unimaginable torment, heart and lungs torn apart, the pain beyond imagining!
This one whip nearly tore her primordial spirit apart; she hurriedly fled from the divine artifact Yutianzun's body, and there was Lady Yuanmu's primordial spirit, blazing all over with raging demonic fire that could not be extinguished! Qiang Tianfei controlled the divine artifact Yutianzun and unleashed Heavenly Dao divine arts, using the Heavenly Dao to restrain the Great Daos of Youdu, extinguishing the demonic fire on her primordial spirit.
Lady Yuanmu's primordial spirit flew like the wind back into the divine artifact Yutianzun's body, greatly fearing Tubo.
The divine artifact Yutianzun howled as he charged at Tubo, shouting: "This time I take the lead—I have no primordial spirit! My Dao of consciousness does not fear his Dao of Taiji! " Lady Yuanmu still had lingering fear of Tubo, and at once took second place, letting Qiang Tianfei control the divine artifact Yutianzun.
Two people, three bodies, fought in a melee encircling Tubo, and at last shattered Tubo.
Suddenly the great desert of the Taiji Star Domain quaked, and a Yuan Tree emerged, tall enough to fill the heavens, with the Earth Mother Yuanjun standing beneath it.
Around the Yuan Tree's crown floated the myriad heavens and worlds, giving off lights of every hue.
Despair filled the hearts of Shi Qiluo and Qiang Tianfei; at once they abandoned any desire to keep fighting, leaped up, and fled, escaping clean away. That Earth Mother Yuanjun did not block them.
Soon the Yuan Tree collapsed like flying sand, the myriad heavens and worlds vanished as well, and the violent quaking of the great desert subsided, slowly returning to calm—still the black-sand desert on one side, the white-sand desert on the other. The figures of the two Taiji Ancient Gods appeared, their auras withered and spent, their faces somewhat unsightly.
Supporting each other, the two walked toward Yan Tianfei and said with bitter smiles: "We have been disturbed by the red dust of the mortal world, and indeed cannot bring the Dao of Taiji to its utmost; otherwise we would not have been pressed to such a degree by them, still less would we have let them escape.
" Yan Tianfei laughed: "The strength of you two Dao-brothers is no small matter; this little sister admires you so much she prostrates herself.
Your abilities would rank among the very best even among the Ten Heavenly Venerables, and with the two of you joining hands, you are all but invincible—even against a powerhouse of Great Heavenly Court perfection, you two could fight to your heart's content! " "Your Majesty overpraises us.
.
. " The two ancient gods swept their gazes around, looked at their own primordial stones and eggshells, and could not help but change countenance drastically, saying in unison: "Where are our eggshells?
" Yan Tianfei hurriedly looked, and saw that the seven Taiji primordial stones were still there, but the two eggshells from which the Taiji Ancient Gods had broken out of their shells had already vanished without a trace!
Yan Tianfei could not help but change countenance, thinking: "What kind of thief is this?
To be able to lurk silently into the midst of the battlefield—such skill is truly that of one who could steal the sky and swap the sun. .
.
But why did this thief not steal the Taiji divine stones, and instead make off with the most useless eggshells? "
