The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
" But with the three joining hands and Elder Wuyai thrown into the mix, by prearranged cunning against unprepared targets, they could absolutely ensnare Elder Wuyai and Wuji beyond all hope! The three figures followed close behind the World Tree and the old man into the Abyss.
Shen Mu raised his hand; a lotus leaf spread out like the sky and sealed the entrance. Behind him, the Lunar Heaven Sovereign entered with him, surveying her surroundings with the greatest care, not daring the slightest lapse.
The instant Elder Wuyai and the World Tree fell into the Abyss, two fearsome forces struck each other and annihilated each other, wreaking appalling havoc across the Chaotic Sea of Guixu!
Elder Wuyai and Wuji let out piercing shrieks almost simultaneously, rampaging back and forth through Guixu and making the Great Abyss wildly unstable!
The World Tree's branches and roots reached in every direction; some plunged into the Chaotic Sea to siphon its power, others rammed into the walls of the Great Abyss, sending chaos-stones crashing into the sea.
At almost the same moment, Elder Wuyai and Wuji struck to kill each other!
In that instant, both understood that only by destroying the other could either hope to survive, only then would they not perish together in body and soul!
Lingxiao, Zixiao, and Shen Mu soared up and attacked them both, while also sealing the Guixu entrance so neither could escape. The Great Abyss became a beast-pit.
In the three-way melee, pitch-black Guixu arts filled the depths, devouring everything. White hair streaming, Wuji drove her arts with all her might and cried out: "Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Seventh Brother, you butchered your fellow disciples! How will you answer to the Master?
" Lingxiao's murderous aura seethed; his Dao lance pierced through a black hole of Guixu, stabbed out from within it, and pointed straight at Wuji's brow.
He said coldly: "Second Sister, in whose hands did Zhanji die?
Do you still not know?
" Wuji evaded the lance. Suddenly the lotus dais beneath her feet tilted, a lotus leaf flew up, and with a swish it wrapped around Lingxiao!
Boom! Lingxiao was crushed alive by the leaf into a mist of blood.
When the leaf unfolded, only a pile of broken bones and his Dao lance remained. His fleshly body was that of Heavenly Lord Hao, far too weak to contend with a supreme power like Wuji; outmatched in dharma power and body alike, he died in a single move! Shen Mu pointed, and the Immutable Art erupted.
Before the blood mist and broken bones could be swallowed by the Chaotic Sea, Lingxiao was standing intact on the lotus leaf.
Wuji shouted in fury. Suddenly a length of lotus root rose from the Chaotic Sea, a root with sixteen holes, and from them a stream of air blasted toward Shen Mu.
Whoosh! Shen Mu's flesh dissolved, quickly leaving a set of white bones, and then even those bones shattered in the uncanny current from the root's holes.
After that gust of kalpa-wind, Shen Mu was utterly gone! "Zhanji's death has nothing to do with me! " Having cut down Lingxiao and Shen Mu in succession, Wuji's killing intent towered to the heavens.
She cried savagely: "If I had done it, why would I hide it? " Zixiao's and Elder Wuyai's arts struck her.
Zixiao's was tolerable, but Elder Wuyai's attack made her spit blood.
Wuji turned ruthless and struck to kill: "Since words can't settle this, I'll just kill you!
I meant to kill all of you anyway! " Suddenly the Chaotic Sea trembled.
A Chaos Hall rose from the sea, its doors flung wide, and Shen Mu walked out. He raised a hand, drew the Lunar Heaven Sovereign to him, and said: "Enter my hall.
" Wuji flicked her fingers. The Dao-Achiever's fleshly body controlled by Zixiao shuddered as lotus seeds shot into it, tearing bloody holes through it.
Those seeds swelled at terrifying speed, took root, and sprouted.
Zixiao burst apart, and the lotus tendrils drained the energy from his body in the span of a breath!
