Chapter 1270 — Unrivaled Under Heaven
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 3
In the Great Void, within the vast and boundless Creator Continent, at this very moment, whether they were gods and demons of the Heavenly Court, or the god-and-demon soldiers and officers of Carefree Land and of the Creators, or even the demon gods in the Dark Capital of the Great Void, all raised their heads as if by prior agreement and looked toward one and the same place. There, an incomparably dreadful tremor had come, as though a colossal beast capable of destroying heaven and earth were recklessly venting its energy, shattering the Great Void, destroying this world the Creators had made! That power was so mighty and so terrible that their hearts filled with dread, filled with awe.
They could sense that world-destroying fluctuation rushing toward them, surging into the land of the Great Void, and its speed of propagation was astonishing to behold. Even beings at the Emperor Throne realm changed countenance drastically, for that fluctuation was simply too strong, too fast, beyond their comprehension; no divine ability could possibly attain such speed!
The only possible explanation for such speed was that the Great Void was disintegrating!
At the Heavenly Court's great camp, atop the walls of Eastfall Divine City, the Second Heavenly Master Meng Yungui raised his head and gazed at the void beyond the heavens, his face pale and bleak; like the soldiers and officers under his command, nothing remained in his heart now but shuddering alarm. "Wisdom is no match for divine ability, wisdom is no match for divine ability.
. .
" he murmured.
Suddenly the soldiers of the Westfall Sect broke into an uproar and commotion, and Meng Yungui hurried to steady the morale of the troops; just then, he saw the sky split open, and giant after giant came charging into the land of the Great Void. "Corpse Walkers!
They're the Corpse Walkers from the Collapsing Void!
" someone cried in shock. Those Corpse Walkers were the Creators who had died in battle during the last invasion of the Great Emperor; though they were dead, the lingering obsessions left in their corpses made them walk endlessly through the Collapsing Void, seeking their homeland.
But Corpse Walkers could not enter this land of the Great Void; they could only cycle round and round, again and again, walking back and forth endlessly through the Collapsing Void.
And now, the Corpse Walkers had actually charged into the land of the Great Void! Those sky-piercing giants descended from the heavens trailing fire; one after another they crashed to the ground, smashing mountains flat, slamming hard into the earth, and for a long while they did not stir.
These Corpse Walkers were scattered all across the Great Void, some falling into the Heavenly Court's territory, some into the territory of Carefree Land. After a moment, Meng Yungui summoned a squad of scouts and ordered, "Go at once to the nearest Corpse Walker landing site and investigate, then report back to me!
" The squad of god-and-demon scouts accepted the order and immediately flew off; before they even reached the fallen Corpse Walker, they suddenly saw that Corpse Walker sprawled on the ground in a bizarre posture, crouching among the mountains, its eyes a ghastly white, when it abruptly opened its mouth wide and let out a shrill, mournful cry!
The squad of god-and-demon scouts were battered into a daze by that cry, and then they saw countless masterless spiritual consciousnesses come surging wildly like a tide from the Corpse Walker's mouth! "It's the spiritual consciousnesses and resentments of the Collapsing Void hiding inside these Corpse Walkers!
" The scouts panicked and turned to flee, but many could not escape in time; the tide of spiritual consciousnesses caught up with them, and in an instant countless inner demons were born and tore them to shreds!
