" Shen Mu said in a heavy voice, "You are their spiritual leader.
Their powers are vast, and they will stop at nothing to find you. I have already had a taste of it on the road.

" He abruptly tore open his garment, revealing strange wounds one after another on his chest; the wounds were shocking to behold, and the fluctuations emitted by the Dao wounds made Xu Shenghua and Lan Yutian cry out in astonishment.
The Dao wounds on Shen Mu's chest had been caused by a great Dao divine power they had never seen before!
The two of them had already studied the world's great Daos, and had even dabbled in the Miluo Palace's Dao arts and divine powers, yet the great Dao divine powers of the Heaven-Opening Host of Tian Du exceeded the scope of their understanding! Ling Yuxiu let out a low cry; though she had been present at Shen Mu's battle with the Heaven-Opening Host on the river and knew he had been wounded, she had not known his injuries could not be healed, and Shen Mu had never spoken of it. Tai Yi's expression grew grave as he looked at the wounds on Shen Mu's chest; some had already begun to rot, clearly showing that Shen Mu had been helpless against these Dao wounds all this time.
"The divine powers of the Heaven-Opening Host have departed from the scope of the heaven-and-earth-opening of those days; their divine powers have taken another path. " Tai Yi said in a heavy voice, "Back then, we merely discussed that such a path existed—a path different from the rune Dao the Miluo Palace Master created, one that required no runes, no Dao realms or Dao trees to attain the Dao, and could even create great Daos.
Judging from the Dao wounds on your body, they have already achieved something.
