Chapter 1584 — Unrivaled for Six Billion Years
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
Hao Tianzun fought with immense difficulty, grinding his teeth in hatred. Just as both sides were wounded, suddenly a Cold Silence Wind came howling down, and all the heavens in an instant stretched out without limit, everything growing immeasurably thin! These heavens grew flatter and flatter, as though stretched to a layer of no thickness at all!
The four were startled; the moment that cold wind touched their bodies and souls, their flesh began to change, growing flat, spreading in every direction, the material particles that composed their bodies stretching infinitely apart from one another! Xiao Tianzun's body began in an instant to swell, spreading outward, stretched until it was hundreds of li wide, flatter and flatter. "The Ultimate Void!
" He roared, rousing the Great Heavenly Court formed of his thirty-six heavenly palaces; with a shake of his body he forcibly contracted his flesh against the Cold Silence Wind, and his body drew back in and returned to normal. But even though he had raised himself to the Heavenly Court realm, the Ultimate Void still worked upon his flesh and soul, threatening his life, forcing him to rouse his Dao arts and divine powers to resist it. On another side, Kaihuang roused his sword-Dao; as his swordplay unfolded, a sword-Dao domain formed about him, and he too fought the Cold Silence Wind of the Ultimate Void.
Hao Tianzun likewise roused his own Great Heavenly Court, using immense dharma power to suppress and resist the Ultimate Void, his heart cold with dread. Shen Mu's soul hid within the Heavenly Emperor's body and felt nothing amiss; but his own body could not hold out.
The moment the Cold Silence Wind touched it, his flesh became immeasurably thin. And so it was with Ling Tianzun.
Her cultivation was lower, no match for Shen Mu, still less for Hao Tianzun, Xiao Tianzun, and Kaihuang; under this Cold Silence Wind her flesh and soul began at once to dissolve.
"Primal Embryo Divine Treasury Domain! " Suddenly Shen Mu roared, and his divine-consciousness domain unfolded; at once a World Tree, lush and green, rose from the ground, propping up a heaven and earth within the Ultimate Void.
With Ling Tianzun's and Shen Mu's bodies inside the Primal Embryo Divine Treasury Domain, the dissolution of their flesh and souls halted at once.
Ling Tianzun roused the Unchanging Divine Art; her flesh and soul were restored as before, and she looked around her with a touch of alarm and uncertainty.
They forcibly suppressed their own flesh and souls, yet still found it hard to hold down the effects of the Cold Silence Wind! Fortunately their cultivation was strong enough; the Cold Silence Wind did affect them, but not enough to take their lives all at once.
They looked up and saw a Dao Tree standing in their midst, its branches thick with leaves, its crown vast. They looked around and could no longer see those heavens; the whole of them had utterly dissolved into emptiness, gone without a trace!
Taidi's Great Luotian of Divine Consciousness had come at last!
"Where the Dao Tree does not grow, the Dao Flower does not bloom, and the Dao Fruit does not form—all are ants!
" Beneath that Dao Tree, a majestic Creator came walking from behind the trunk, laughing heartily. He looked at the crowd and said leisurely, "I watch you ants, striving against one another in a lowly world, battering yourselves bloody—it is really quite amusing.
" "Juyu!
" Xiao Tianzun snorted coldly. "Taidi!
" Shen Mu's eyes lit up.
Hao Tianzun smiled, eager to try his hand. Kaihuang stood with his hands clasped behind him, studying the Dao Tree, paying Taidi no heed at all.
Shen Mu, meanwhile, looked Taidi up and down, praising him without cease, and said with a laugh, "Eldest Brother, so this is your Great Luotian of Divine Consciousness?
You branded the Ultimate Void with the Dao of Divine Consciousness, and thus formed the Ultimate Luotian?
