Chapter 1851 — The Peerless Sword-Dao Young Master
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 1 of 4
Those sixteen Chaos Long Rivers formed rings of varying sizes, and Shen Mu stood among them, saying with a smile, "Third Brother, Fourth Brother, come send me back. " Young Master Lingxiao let out a long howl, thrust his Dao spear out, and with the spear picking at the Chaos Long Rivers, savagely charged into their midst, straight at Shen Mu!
Meanwhile, Young Master Zixiao circled around Shen Mu, his Dao sword humming, its point leveled at the Six-Path Heavenly Wheel!
The two had chosen the surest path: Young Master Lingxiao would fight Shen Mu to the death, while Young Master Zixiao destroyed the Six-Path Heavenly Wheel and led the host to encircle and annihilate the Jingping Dao-achievers.
The linchpin was the destruction of the Six-Path Heavenly Wheel—once the wheel was destroyed, the Jingping Dao-achievers would face a massacre, and they could never be a match for the host of Yujing City. And after the Jingping Dao-achievers were wiped out, if Young Master Lingxiao still had not defeated Shen Mu, Young Master Zixiao could come to his aid, gravely wounding Shen Mu and exiling him to the past!
This battle, one could say, held no suspense whatsoever! Right at the instant Young Master Zixiao lunged toward the Six-Path Heavenly Wheel, the chaos before him abruptly turned vast and dim—Chaos Long River after Chaos Long River came sweeping in and dragged him into Shen Mu's battle ring.
On the other side, Young Master Lingxiao swept his long spear, trying to toss aside the Chaos Long Rivers so that Young Master Zixiao could break free, yet his Dao spear suddenly turned heavy and could not lift the Chaos Long River. Young Master Lingxiao exerted his strength abruptly; the Dao spear bent under the strain, but still he could not raise the Chaos Long River.
He looked out and saw that the sixteen Chaos Long Rivers surrounding Shen Mu had suddenly become incomparably vast and boundless, just like the sixteen long rivers encircling the Miluo Palace in Yujing City.
Dense mist hemmed them in on every side, and the far bank was completely invisible! The chaotic mist shrouded the river surface entirely, confounding all direction.
He could not even see where Young Master Zixiao was, nor did he know where Shen Mu was! Chaos.
The great chaos that formed after sixteen cosmic epochs were annihilated.
Young Master Lingxiao's heart sank slightly. He drew his Dao spear from the river and stood upon its surface, uncertain which epoch's Annihilation Tribulation he now stood on, and uncertain of his bearings. The last time he had exchanged blows with Shen Mu, Shen Mu had cultivated his Dao realm to the thirty-sixth heaven and deployed the Chaos Long River technique—but that was the Battle of Guixu, three and a half billion years ago.
At that time, he had broken the technique with ease.
In the long ages that followed, although Shen Mu had clashed with them repeatedly, he had never once used this technique again.
And now, three and a half billion years later, the technique had reappeared—but it had already become something he could not understand.
The Way of Chaos—even the master of the Miluo Palace had never understood it.
"Seventh Brother did not return to the past, so he cannot have attained the Dao through Chaos.
These sixteen long rivers are not his cultivation; they are the true great Annihilation Tribulation.
" Young Master Lingxiao quickly reasoned this out. At once he bore his Dao spear on his back and raced away across the river's surface with a long cry.
Wherever he passed, the Chaos Long River erupted with a thunderous boom!
Behind him, Dao fruit after Dao fruit from his Dao Tree flew forward without cease, their Dao light shining through and scattering the mist ahead.
"He has not appeared, which means he has gone to stop Fourth Brother.
I can race across the surfaces of the sixteen Chaos Long Rivers in just one day and find his position!
