The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 4
" "His third divine art was Hunyuan One Qi once more, breaching your face — and this strike was remarkable indeed: he drove the Unchanging Divine Art into your body, and it was precisely at the third stage. " Even Taisu could not keep admiration from her words, and she praised: "When his Unchanging Divine Art entered your body, it was just as the Dao of Creation was fusing with your flesh. At the same moment, the Dao of Taiji of the third stage erupted, restoring your body to its former state.
Yet this former state was not the true former state. " The admiration in her words grew thicker and thicker, until it was almost a moan of soft praise: "This former state is you after your face took three of his strikes. He has fixed your countenance forever in the shape it holds now. " She could not help laughing aloud: "Fire Heavenly Venerable, you should count yourself fortunate that Mu Tianzun's cultivation is far beneath yours, and fortunate that Qiang Tianfei dragged him away. His power is lesser than yours, and so these three strikes could not spread through your whole body — he had only time to alter the structure of your head.
Had those three strikes invaded every part of you, then you need not dream of growing back even those two arms.
" A fury in Fire Heavenly Venerable shot up to the heavens, scattering the chaos mist above his head.
That he should be so grievously wounded and this woman could still laugh aloud — it was more than he could bear. Suddenly Hao Heavenly Venerable's voice came at just the right moment, mild: "At least Mu Tianzun's cultivation was weak and your life was spared — a great blessing within misfortune. " Hearing his voice, Fire Heavenly Venerable's fury gradually subsided, and his anger was pressed down.
Hao Heavenly Venerable went on: "Aunt, can you heal Fire Heavenly Venerable's wounds?
" "I cannot.
" The Taisu Goddess said: "I have no means to break the Unchanging Divine Art deep-planted in Fire Heavenly Venerable's body, nor can I break the Dao of Reincarnation and the Dao of Creation within him. Only if the Taichu Heavenly Emperor returned to his peak, and fused the Dao of Divine Consciousness into one, becoming the complete Dao of Taichu, would it be possible to resolve Fire Heavenly Venerable's injury.
" Hao Heavenly Venerable raised an eyebrow. "Then the Taichu Heavenly Emperor would have to strike Fire Heavenly Venerable down into the Taichu form with the Dao of Taichu, turning him into Innate One Qi, without form or substance. Then Taishi would have to act, turning the Innate One Qi into the Taishi form, with form but no substance.
Then I would act, turning him into a state of form and substance but no body — and at that point Yin Tianzi would be needed to break the Dao of Reincarnation Mu Tianzun left behind, and Ling Tianzun to break the Unchanging Divine Art Mu Tianzun left behind. " The Taisu Goddess said: "Then two Taiji ancient gods would have to act to reshape his body. Therefore.
. . " She said, flatly: "There is no saving him. " Fire Heavenly Venerable's heart slowly sank into an icy abyss, cold beyond measure.
Yin Tianzi and Taisu might be manageable, but the others would never come to his rescue.
Hao Heavenly Venerable frowned: "Then does Fire Heavenly Venerable's injury affect his strength?
" "It does, but not greatly. " Hao Heavenly Venerable breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately his cultivation and strength are little affected.
Brother Fire, a man's ambition lies in the four quarters of the world — what does it matter whether a man is handsome?
Refine yourself a mask and wear it on your face.
" Fire Heavenly Venerable murmured his assent.
Hao Heavenly Venerable said to the Ancestor Divine King: "Do not go alone to seek out Mu Tianzun. Qiang Tianfei is at his side; you are no match for the two of them. " The Ancestor Divine King laughed heartily: "Would I fear him?
Still, the fellow's divine arts are strange indeed.
. . Where is Palace Heavenly Venerable? "
