Chapter 1597 — The Elder Is My Brother
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 4
Heavenly Venerable Gong had no time to think further. She rushed howling past the karmic-fire stele forest. Beyond the stele forest lay the Ming River; the vast Ming River here poured into an enormous cavern mouth!
Behind her, the blow from the vertical eye at Tu Bo's brow had already fallen. The whole of Yusuo Pass shook violently and crumbled; surging waves of qi flung countless corpses into the air!
Strangely, though this shockwave was dreadful, the corpses of those demon-gods were not damaged in the least; the bodies were whole. And though the earth of Yusuo Pass shook and crumbled, it too remained whole, not damaged in the slightest.
Heavenly Venerable Gong strove to press forward. The shockwave raised by Tu Bo's blow behind her had already reached her back; the demonic fire blazed, setting her primordial spirit alight.
Heavenly Venerable Gong felt a piercing agony in her soul, and in her mind it was as if countless inner demons were screaming desperately, so loud that she could hear nothing else!
In the Myriad Ways Heaven Wheel, Shen Mu hastily thrust out his legs again and ran at full speed.
Heavenly Venerable Gong clenched her teeth and followed. The two of them, one behind the other, plunged into the Ming River, and were seized by its waters, tumbling and rolling downward!
Tu Bo's blow had missed. He reached out a great hand and seized the entire Ming River. This river, formed when the Heavenly River flowed into Youdu, was exceedingly broad, yet he grasped it easily in his hand and tore at it with force.
For a moment the waters of the Ming River flowed backward, and the two within the water were dragged back bodily.
Shen Mu and Heavenly Venerable Gong were aghast, each thinking, "My life is over!"
Just then, amid the rolling waves, a mad old woman was also dragged out by Tu Bo. Fury surged in her heart, and she shrieked, "Tu Bo, you dare come and ruin our good work?"
The mad old woman cut the Ming River in two with a single blow, and Shen Mu and Heavenly Venerable Gong were at once sucked into that great rift and fell down.
The mad old woman charged to meet Tu Bo's great hand, utterly savage, and fought Tu Bo for several hundred rounds before her anger subsided; then she returned into the great rift of Youdu.
