Chapter 1679 — The Door and the Stone Stele
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 4
Lan Yutian stared in bewilderment at this bizarre place. The Ultimate Void was like an invisible behemoth, casting everything it could not digest into this spot.
"Perhaps this tower of flesh and blood is also something it could not digest, and so it was thrown here as well."
He blinked and thought to himself: "What place is this, exactly? Where within the Ultimate Void?"
The Ultimate Void held only the Daluo Heavens of Dao-attainers, and each Daluo Heaven occupied no fixed position. To locate their current whereabouts was easier said than done.
The dumping ground of the Ultimate Void was vast beyond measure. The tower of flesh and blood drifted silently on, and after an unknowable stretch of time, encountering countless bizarre objects, Lan Yutian saw another strange thing float past outside.
It was a door.
Or rather, a door frame, for the door panel was gone.
Lan Yutian peered through the frame and could not help but start. Behind that door frame was not the Ultimate Void at all, but a standing forest of stone steles!
These steles were identical to the one he had encountered earlier, that incomparably smooth stone stele!
Only, the steles faced away from him, so he could not see whether their front faces bore any writing.
"Could that stele have drifted out from here? Then where did the door panel go?"
He was still pondering when Shen Mu's voice suddenly came: "Royal Brother, I am now confident I can deal with the Hongmeng Transformation Dao divine art!"
Lan Yutian's heart leapt with joy. He saw the Hongmeng primordial qi shrouding Shen Mu's eye surge and flow into it.
Instantly, with that eye as the center, Shen Mu's flesh and blood began to grow, and soon formed his head!
Shen Mu's head opened its three eyes, purple qi swirling and churning within them, revealing a look of intense excitement!
At the same time, the Dao chains within the tower of flesh and blood blazed with light, their power erupting, suppressing the Hongmeng primordial qi as they hurtled toward him!
This tower of flesh and blood contained the Hongmeng Transformation Dao divine art, meant to reduce him back to a state of Hongmeng primordial qi, to prevent his resurrection!
Shen Mu laughed aloud, letting those Dao chain divine arts strike his body, yet they could not harm him in the slightest. On the contrary, his three eyes shot out beams of purple light that severed three flesh-and-blood Dao chains that had drawn near!
But strangely, once the flesh-and-blood Dao chains were cut, flesh and blood immediately regrew. This Hongmeng Transformation Dao divine art was like a biological divine art, combined with the Hongmeng runes of the Lord of the Miluo Palace, transforming this divine art into a living thing capable of self-growth and self-repair!
This was the first time Shen Mu had seen such a bizarre divine art, and he was startled.
Below his head, a neck grew, then shoulders, chest, arms, and his waist was also regenerating!
Shen Mu raised his hand, and the Tribulation Sword flew from between his brows, piercing through the pagoda in a single strike. A Dao chain was severed, the Dao patterns composing it annihilated, flesh and blood splattering everywhere.
Just then, a wind of cold silence blew in, stirring the pagoda, causing its outer layers to begin to dissolve.
The pagoda spun and howled toward the outer edges of this abandoned place.
The Ultimate Void was exceedingly strange. Things that could not be voidized would be delivered by the wind of cold silence to this filthy place, while things that could be voidized would be sent out from here.
Shen Mu's earlier sword strike had broken the tower of flesh and blood, greatly reducing its self-defense power, causing it to begin voidizing. Thus the pagoda was swept up by the wind of cold silence and carried away from this abandoned place.
