Chapter 766 — Brothers Fused as One
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
"My brother's fearsome reputation is truly great. " Shen Mu sighed inwardly. This trip to the Jade Lock Pass had gone unusually smoothly, somewhat beyond his expectations.
War drums thundered from within the pass, thick with killing intent. He immediately sensed countless powerful and terrifying auras emanating from inside. Clearly, the Jade Lock Pass of Youdu held a great many troops, guarding it with utmost vigilance to prevent the imprisoned beings within from escaping. Shen Mu steadied himself, silently lifted the willow leaf from between his brows, and said softly, "Brother, I've come to see Mother. .
. " His eyes suddenly stung and swelled, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. "You've seen Mother, but I never have. Mother held you, kissed you, but she never held me, never kissed me.
If you hadn't committed that great sin, I wouldn't be unable to see Father, unable to see Mother. .
. " In the third eye at his brow, on the Continent of the Character Shen, the big-headed monstrous infant sat there, gazing up at the sky. The Lord of Heaven and the consciousness of the Crimson Emperor grew alarmed.
The Lord of Heaven's avatar shouted, "Shen Feng.
.
. Shen Mu, what are you trying to do? Don't do anything rash! " Shen Mu's voice came through.
"Who doesn't wish their childhood had been spent in joy at their parents' knees?
Who doesn't wish they'd had their parents beside them as a child? But I didn't.
Brother, I've come to see Mother, and you must make it up to me. Today. .
.
" His body swayed, and his voice grew hoarse. "I need to borrow your power, brother!
I can't control the demonic nature, but you can. You can't control the divine arts, but I can. Brother, Shen Fengqing, come out! " The Lord of Heaven's avatar and the Crimson Emperor's consciousness roared in unison, "Don't do anything rash—" Above the continent, the sky trembled.
Shen Mu's consciousness pierced the heavens. "Brother, merge with me, and together we'll go see Mother! " The big-headed monstrous infant shot up into the sky, flying beyond the heavens.
"No—" The Lord of Heaven's avatar and the Crimson Emperor's consciousness flew toward the heavens, only to see the seal suddenly reinforced. Shen Mu had covered the willow leaf again, sealing them within the Continent of the Character Shen. The two landed, their hearts cold as ice. "That little bastard Shen Mu, he can't control the demonic nature at all, he can't control Shen Fengqing at all! " The Lord of Heaven's avatar was furious.
He paced anxiously, then suddenly looked up at the Great Buddha suspended in midair and shouted, "Old Buddha, wake up at once, something terrible has happened! " The Great Buddha slept on, unable to hear him at all. "Is this old Buddha here to suppress Shen Fengqing, or to sleep?
" The Crimson Emperor's consciousness was furious as well. Shen Mu's body swayed, his flesh swelling section by section. Arms burrowed out one after another, and at the same time two more necks grew from his neck.
Six shoulders, six arms, topped by three heads. One of the heads suddenly transformed, taking the form of an infant. Instantly, Shen Mu felt an incomparably terrifying power surging toward him like mountains and seas! That power was not the power gained from opening the divine treasury or the heavenly palace. Advancing in cultivation could not bring such power. This was the power of rules, the laws of Youdu, the force of heaven and earth, the power of Youdu's Dao!
He was like an ancient god born of heaven and earth, and also like a demigod who grew stronger as he matured, possessing the strengths of both ancient gods and demigods! "Naughty little brother, I'll control the power, you control the rules!
" The infant head spoke in a child's tender voice.
Shen Mu felt rolling power pour into his body like a vast ocean.
