Lan Yutian's voice fell upon everyone's ears, sounding especially harsh.
Shen Mu said gravely, "You are not weak either. You are only a hair's breadth behind me, so there is no need to belittle yourselves.
" The crowd coughed repeatedly and glanced around.
Shen Mu was about to use his divine ability when, outside, the giant beasts attacking the divine consciousness cage suddenly prostrated themselves and kowtowed in worship. Shen Mu frowned and looked out.
He saw the earth heaving; countless roots burst through the soil, and the form of Earth Mother Yuanjun emerged from underground, growing taller and taller. This ancient god was wrapped in baleful aura, reeking of blood.
She strode forward, and one giant beast after another involuntarily knelt and worshipped her. She was the Mother of the Earth, the natural ruler of the ancient era's giant beasts.
In this world, only two people could control the giant beasts of the ancient era: one was Long Xiao, and the other was Earth Mother.
Long Xiao was the leader of the giant beasts and possessed supreme majesty, and thus could make the ancient giant beasts submit. Yet there were those who did not submit; for example, giant beasts subdued by beings such as Shu Jun, Gong Yun, and the Great Emperor would not submit to Long Xiao, and the void giant beasts would not submit to Long Xiao either.
Earth Mother, however, was an ancient god born of the Dao of Heaven and Earth. She did not rely on majesty; she was formed by heaven and earth and born of the Great Dao, a natural ruler. "Mu Tianzun.
" Earth Mother Yuanjun came to the outside of the cage and sized up the people within with great interest. She smiled, "So even you have come to this day?
" Shen Mu's expression shifted slightly, then he laughed heartily, "Earth Mother Yuanjun, you think you have me at your mercy?
I am protected by Long Xiao's divine consciousness cage. One of us is outside the cage and one within—except it is I outside and you within.
Earth Mother, farewell. Take care of yourself. " Earth Mother Yuanjun sneered, "You think that because you hide in the cage, I cannot deal with you? You underestimate me far too much.
Long Xiao's divine consciousness cage can trap you, but it cannot trap me. Because I have obtained a supreme treasure! " She took out a palm—the Great Emperor's palm, which she had refined into a weapon.
She sneered, "You are the one who reduced me to this state. Today I, this palace, will scatter your soul completely. Let us see whether you, the Great Mage, can resurrect yourself again!
" She activated the Great Emperor's hand and punched.
Even the divine consciousness cage that ancient giant beasts could not break immediately showed cracks under the attack of the Great Emperor's hand. The power of the Great Emperor's hand was supremely hard and fierce; the fist struck the cage, forcing the insubstantial cage to become substantial, and then the Great Emperor's hand shattered it.
Earth Mother Yuanjun launched another strike. The divine consciousness cage shook violently.
In only two or three more blows, the cage Long Xiao had laid down would collapse completely. The people in the cage fell into panic.
Shen Mu frowned, removed the treasure seal from Shu Jun's back, and said with a smile, "Daoist Brother Great Emperor, the time has come to release you. Congratulations, brother, on escaping your predicament. " Everyone in the cage was startled, including Shu Jun, who had himself once forgotten that on his back he carried a treasure seal refined from the Great Emperor's head.
The Great Emperor's divine consciousness was so powerful that it affected their thoughts and awareness, preventing them from seeing the seal. Even Shu Jun had his memory imperceptibly influenced by the Great Emperor's head, and he had no recollection of the seal on his back.
The Great Emperor's head sneered, "You release me? Mu Tianzun, you are too ruthless.
