Chapter 1502 — The Sage of the Celestial Palace Appears
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 3
That strike came with boundless grandeur. Since the Glazed Blue Heaven Banner had been reforged, this once foremost treasure under heaven was entering battle for the first time, and when its might erupted it truly shook heaven and earth!
Shen Mu's muscles swelled and leapt and throbbed, his mana and vital energy pouring madly into the Twenty-Eight Heavens and urging every mighty treasure to its utmost!
The might of the Glazed Blue Heaven Banner yielded nothing even to a Heavenly Venerable treasure, surpassing Lan Yutian's arrows just now by countlessfold!
Boom!
The Glazed Blue Heaven Banner swept across that wall, blasting the surface apart and hurling even that schoolmaster into the painting.
The painting, having lost its support, drifted in midair and suddenly swelled violently, and a fragment of the Great Luo Heaven flew out!
The Dao tree before Shen Mu's eyes at once grew incomparably towering, and though the blow landed upon it, it failed to harm that Dao tree in the slightest.
Beneath the ancient tree, the scholar looked up toward him.
The scholar rose and strode forward, his form faint and insubstantial, as if he possessed no true flesh at all.
Shen Mu started in alarm and hastily fell back, whirling the Blue Heaven Banner in his hands, drawing everyone into the Twenty-Eight Heavens as he sought to flee this place.
The scholar reached the edge of the Great Luo Heaven fragment and could step no farther, and Shen Mu had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a Dao fruit upon the ancient tree split open, and from it dropped a schoolmaster headfirst, who righted himself to head-up and feet-down as he freed himself from the fruit. Another Dao fruit split, and another schoolmaster walked out.
Upon the Dao tree, Dao flowers bloomed, and within them too was a schoolmaster!
The three schoolmasters each strode forth, leaving the Great Luo Heaven fragment and invading the Glazed Blue Heaven Banner.
Shen Mu retreated swiftly with the Glazed Blue Heaven Banner and shouted in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, the crisis is upon us, will you not yet awaken?
" His voice rumbled and reverberated back and forth through the Twenty-Eight Heavens of the Blue Heaven Banner, and the souls of the many ancient gods and Creators and the Southern Emperor Zhuque and the Ming Emperor and the others whom he had gathered into the Twenty-Eight Heavens awoke one by one, looking about in astonishment.
The Lame Elder and Lan Yutian also came to themselves, only to see the three schoolmasters killing their way through layer upon layer of heavens toward them. "Brother Mu!
" the Southern Emperor Zhuque cried in surprise at the sight of Shen Mu.
"Mu Qing!
" Yu Tianzun also saw Shen Mu and exclaimed.
The Ming Emperor, left with only his primordial spirit and no flesh, shouted loudly, "This place is uncanny beyond measure, gentlemen, follow me into battle!
" Worthy indeed of the emperor of the Chiming Era, he charged forward first to meet one schoolmaster, and though only a primordial spirit remained, his strength was by no means small, using primordial spirit as flesh and fighting wide open and headlong as if in close combat of the body! The Southern Emperor Zhuque gave a shrill cry and transformed into the Vermilion Bird, meeting another schoolmaster and unleashing every killing move!
On the other side, the Lame Elder and Lan Yutian sped forward, while the other Creator ancient gods surrounded the third schoolmaster and fought him in a ring, with the Lame Elder and Lan Yutian loosing cold arrows from the side.
Shen Mu mobilized the power of each mighty treasure within the Blue Heaven Banner, treasures reforged by the Blind Old Man and the Mute Artisan and matchlessly powerful, bombarding the three schoolmasters without cease. Chaos filled the Twenty-Eight Heavens, men constantly caught by the cane, and once struck they grew muddle-headed, fought no longer, but loudly chanted the scriptures.
