Today I will leave the big monk a whole corpse!
" She straightened up, unfurled her command flag, and the great formation of the Divine Strategy Left Guard closed in, drowning the Great Brahma Heaven King Buddha! At the foot of Mount Kunlun of the Dao Sect, Shen Mu killed another of Lingguan's avatars; but the Dao Ancestor was not at Kunlun.
At that moment he was in the Directorate of Works in Jingping, designing divine weapons together with the Dao Master Lin Xuan. Shen Mu headed straight for the Yuan Wood of Jingping, and even as he ran, his Nether Capital divine ability burst forth, arriving ahead of him above the Yuan Wood of Jingping and the capital!
His divine ability became a Book of Life and Death, blazing with golden light, shining in all directions. The Book had just locked onto the two Lingguan avatars that had already come to this place when Shen Mu's figure arrived; he killed one ancient-god avatar before the Wenda Hall of the Dide Heavenly Palace, and then slew the other ancient-god avatar within the imperial palace of Shangjing City. His figure rushed toward the Eastern Sea, and just then the surface of the Eastern Sea suddenly raised waves that reached the sky; amid the surging billows the Myriad Dragon Nest exploded. That Myriad Dragon Nest had risen in the holy land of the Ancestral Court, formed from the convergence of the vital blood of the cosmos.
In the most ancient times the Creator had sacrificed there, and in that holy land was born a divinity who governed vital blood: the Eastern Emperor, the Azure Dragon. Now the Myriad Dragon Nest had exploded, and the torrent of vital blood poured out at once, filling the sea's surface, dyeing the sky-high waves crimson, surging toward Jingping! Amid the towering waves two enormous divine dragons fought; suddenly one of them, an azure dragon, was torn into four and five pieces, meeting an untimely death!
Shen Mu flicked his fingers, and a lotus leaf appeared, settling on the crest of the waves; at once the great waves subsided, and no ripple rose. Shen Mu flew off, not to kill the azure dragon, but straight toward the great army led by Jiang Baigui, where many armies of gods and demons of Jingping had formed their ranks, locking a dragon-headed ancient god in place with formation after formation!
With Jiang Baigui as the eye of the formation, thirty-six heavenly palaces and seventy-two treasure halls all emerged, joining with the various armies to become a complete Great Heavenly Court formation, working together to grind down that dragon-headed ancient god. Shen Mu halted at once and turned back upon the other divine dragon.
"Seventh Young Master, you have already lost this battle!
" From the divine dragon's mouth came the voice of Lord Lingguan, crying, "If you save the Northern Emperor and Wei Suifeng, you cannot save the Western Emperor, and you will be even less in time to rescue the Lord of the Beast Realm in the Southern Heaven!
Even if you choose and discard, you cannot save everyone! " Bang!
He was smashed to pieces by Shen Mu. Shen Mu did not pause for an instant, but rose and sped away; on the road toward the Kan Land, he suddenly saw above the Great Thunderclap Monastery in the heartland of Jingping the twenty heavens of the Buddhist realm emerge, the twenty heavens encircling Mount Sumeru, sky high and clouds pale, towering and magnificent.
Suddenly a drop of black ink appeared on the Great Brahma Heaven realm, and then, as though the ink were spreading, it stained the whole Great Brahma Heaven realm dark; then this blackness surged toward the Indra Heaven realm, the Vaishravana Heaven realm, the Dhritarashtra Heaven realm!
Quickly the twenty heavens encircling Mount Sumeru were stained dark, and the darkness poured downward, pouring toward the Great Thunderclap Monastery.
