Chapter 1274 — A Demon Den in the Void
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 3
Bai Yuqiong stared at the heart demons hurtling toward her, and even she felt her heart quail. She said hurriedly, "There are too many chaotic divine senses in the Great Void, and they have caused these corpse walkers to mutate! The bodies of the corpse walkers are filled with chaotic divine senses and demonic nature, and they have become the masters of these heart demons! " The heart demons were beyond counting, and among them lumbered corpse walkers of enormous bulk, thundering toward them.
When Bai Yuqiong had led the great army into the Great Void, she had fought the heart demons of the collapsing void, and she knew well how eerie and intractable they were. Heart demons were strong or weak according to whose heart demon they were.
The heart demons of the divinely gifted were nothing much, for the vision and knowledge of the divinely gifted were limited, and their heart demons could not be very strong. Many a dreadful creature that seemed inconceivable to the divinely gifted was, in the eyes of the gods, merely ordinary.
What was dreadful was the heart demons of gods.
The higher a god's cultivation realm, the stronger its heart demon; in the collapsing void they had even been forced to contend with the Heart Demon Heavenly Emperor, the heart demon of some unknown and terrifying existence, when it attacked the void passage. Fortunately Lord Fire and Lord Yu were present at the time, and afterward other Lords arrived, and only then was the Heart Demon Heavenly Emperor slain.
And judging by these heart demons, they were likely remnants left behind in the collapsing void, and more still were the heart demons of the Heavenly Court's soldiers and of the prodigals of the Carefree Land; every one of them was exceedingly powerful!
But the strongest of all was surely that corpse walker!
These corpse walkers were no longer simple corpse walkers; what controlled them was no longer the undying obsession of the Creators, but the demonic nature of the collapsing void. That demonic nature had taken possession of the corpse walkers' bodies and now drove their flesh; and since the flesh of the prehistoric Creators was incomparably mighty, visualized until it was like divine gold, they were absolutely formidable foes! "Lord Mu, you hold off these heart demons and help me reach the corpse walker's side, and I will subdue the corpse walker! " Bai Yuqiong flew forward at speed.
The heart demons were strong, but surely Shen Mu's divine abilities could handle them. She knew Shen Mu's strength.
Before the Heavenly Court's great camp, Shen Mu had defeated Consort Yuwu and slain Yin Jiuzun, displaying power no weaker than the Lingxiao realm.
To her surprise, no sooner had she spoken than Shen Mu had already shot ahead of her, crying aloud, "Celestial Master Bai, subduing demonic nature is my specialty. You help me get close to the corpse walker!
" "Is it chaotic divine senses and demonic nature? Then that's easy enough to deal with.
.
.
" Shen Mu's eyes lit up, and he charged to meet the heart demons: "Celestial Master Bai, you deal with these heart demons; dealing with the corpse walker's demonic nature is my specialty! " Bai Yuqiong had no choice but to follow behind him, the two of them charging forward one after the other.
Those heart demons were exceedingly powerful, dying and being reborn again without any fear of death, but Bai Yuqiong brought out the Way of Space; before the heart demons could come near the two of them, she shifted them away with her spatial divine ability, flinging them a thousand li off! Shen Mu barreled recklessly into the swarm of heart demons, and Bai Yuqiong kept using her spatial divine ability to carve a path for him, when she saw that in the midst of the heart demons, the colossal corpse walker, its four limbs flying, had trampled to death countless heart demons and was racing straight at Shen Mu!
Bai Yuqiong's heart pounded with fright.
