Chapter 1807 — The Holy Land Killing Array
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
Because those times were chaotic, many did not know the deeds were those of the Second Young Master Wuji of Miluo Palace, and so the blame was cast upon Shang Jun, leaving Shang Jun to bear the ill fame.
For a time, even Dao-attainers paled at the mention of Shang Jun. Only the Master of Miluo Palace perceived the change in the Second Young Master Wuji, and so he acted to suppress Wuji within Guixu.
Only later did the matter gradually spread, but those who knew of it were only the Young Masters of Miluo Palace; many Palace Masters did not know, and those outside Miluo Palace could know the truth of it even less. Lingxiao was one of those in the know, and he had even suspected that the Master's decline and death of Dao heart was connected to what the Second Young Master Wuji had done.
"If Seventh Brother moves Guixu here and blocks the Ultimate Void of the Ancestral Court, then even if the Dao-attainers of Miluo Palace enter the Seventeenth Era, they will be unable to enter the Ultimate Void. If they enter there, they will be devoured by Wuji.
" His brows locked tight; it was indeed a ruthless move!
Even he dared not provoke Wuji.
Who knew what that madwoman might do? "I bear wounds and am unfit to descend, and moreover the Ancestral Court holds no energy vast enough to sustain my descent.
" Suddenly his brow smoothed as he said: "Hehuan, before the sealing is complete, leave the Ancestral Court for the outer world and raise a blood-sacrifice altar. If Seventh Brother wishes to seal the Ancestral Court, let him seal it.
We shall choose another battlefield. " Palace Master Hehuan assented and was about to leave, when Lingxiao thought a moment and called her back, saying: "Kaihuang Shen Ye could survive only because he tampered with things during the battle of Youdu.
Shameless that he is, to meddle in the battles of juniors!
Since he is unjust, blame me not for being unrighteous!
I shall grant you two divine powers, and have the Fourth Young Master grant you one bowstring.
When you leave, carry these three divine powers with you, and kill without mercy! " Palace Master Hehuan felt a chill in her heart and bowed her head in assent.
The Third Young Master summoned her close and planted the powers within her, then his expression turned grave and he said in a low voice: "If you cannot leave the Ancestral Court in time to set up the blood sacrifice, do you know what to do? " Palace Master Hehuan lowered her head and said: "I beg the Young Master to instruct me. " A cruel smile crossed the face of the Third Young Master Lingxiao as he said: "Have Fellow Daoist Hao take the Fourth Young Master's bowstring to the World Tree and wipe out Old Man Wuya's followers. With that surge of blood-sacrifice energy, the Fourth Young Master and I shall be able to descend!
" Palace Master Hehuan shuddered, her mind conjuring the dreadful sight of the Fourth Young Master's bowstring sweeping beneath the World Tree, and though long seasoned in slaughter, she could not help a deep dread.
The Third Young Master Lingxiao waved his hand and said: "That would mean a fight to the death with Old Man Wuya. But if matters come to that pass, it will be beyond our choosing.
Go swiftly to see the Fourth Young Master and beg a bowstring from him.
So long as you can leave the Ancestral Court, it need not come to that. " Palace Master Hehuan assented and hurried off to see the Fourth Young Master Zixiao. Not long after, she returned to Jade Capital City to see Palace Master Phoenix and Hao Tiandi.
She saw that Hao Tiandi's entrusting to the void was near completion, and within his Daluo Heaven a Dao Tree of attaining the Dao through force was beginning to form. "One more Dao-attainer's strength is still a gain.
