Chapter 1677 — Union with the Primordial Dao
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
Of the dozen-odd Dao-attainers, only one still retained his physical body; all the rest had burst apart and merged into that ghastly web of chains, and only he alone had kept himself whole. "Seventh Young Master. " The prehistoric Dao-attainer wiped the blood from his mouth, grinned slyly, and bowed low: "This is a divine technique the Third Young Master prepared for you, and he told me to convey his regards.
" He straightened and activated the technique. "Primordial Dao-Dissolution! " The countless chains erupted — boom, boom, boom!
Shen Mu's Divine Treasury domains collapsed one after another, crushing together!
The collapsing domains shrank frantically back into Shen Mu's body, diving inside together with the fleshy chains! At once Shen Mu felt the Daos in his body run out of control; his Dao arts, runes, Dao patterns, and Dao chains all disintegrated, and even his primordial spirit was ground to powder.
Bang!
Beneath the World Tree, his body burst apart, transforming into primordial qi! That mass of primordial qi was purple, full and translucent; within the purple mist, every one of Shen Mu's Daos could be seen shattered, and even the Great Dao of Guixu had not survived.
The power of that strike was truly terrible.
The Third Young Master of the Miluo Palace had suffered an earlier defeat — Shen Mu had ambushed him with a red-rope knot and broken the phantom of his Lingxiao Hall with a single sword-stroke.
Now, he had won his round back!
Yet oddly enough, within the primordial purple qi that Shen Mu had become, an eyeball still floated. A light blazed from that eye, and the primordial purple qi swelled, drawing the World Tree into its midst.
The World Tree's branches and leaves drifted in the purple mist while its roots slowly unfurled. The only thing that had not been destroyed by the dreadful Primordial Dao-Dissolution art was this eye of Shen Mu's.
Within the eye was not only the Dao dew of Taiyi, but also a drop of Dao dew from the Dao tree of the master of the Miluo Palace.
Everything of Shen Mu's had been shattered into primordial qi — everything except this eye.
And this eye became his hope of resurrection. "Seventh Young Master, no point in struggling!
" The prehistoric Dao-attainer grinned and drove the chains wrapped around the World Tree with all his might. Chain after chain whirred and wove around the ball of primordial qi, soon knitting into a tower of primordial purple qi that sealed the primordial qi and the World Tree inside. Flesh squirmed over the surface of this Primordial Tower, and in a matter of moments it became a giant tower of living flesh, towering within the One-Qi Daluo Heaven.
The Dao-attainer spat out a mouthful of blood, but his spirit was high. He glanced at Taichu and said, "The Seventh Young Master has been suppressed by me. Taichu, take me to your Youdu at once!
" Taichu was thoroughly baffled and asked, "Dao-brother, since we cannot kill the Seventh Young Master of the Miluo Palace, why not sink him into the Long River of Chaos, but instead take him to Youdu?
In my opinion, we should send him to the Ancestral Court's Jade Capital right away — I fear that a delay may bring unexpected trouble! " The Dao-attainer shook his head. "There is a blood-sacrifice formation in Youdu.
The Third Young Master's purpose is not merely to take him prisoner, but to sacrifice him.
He is hard to kill, but with the blood-sacrifice formation he can be offered up to the Sixteenth Era!
" A smile spread across his face, and his voice grew stirred: "His power is not enough to trade for the Third Young Master, but it is more than enough to trade for one of the Third Young Master's Dao-fruit avatars!
Once the Third Young Master's avatar arrives in this world, then every Dao-attainer in the entire Jade Capital of the Ancestral Court will be able to descend. . .
