Chapter 900 — Supreme of the Yuan Realm
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 5
Her figure was also approaching Heavenly Venerable Yu, the Yuan Wood flying behind her. In the tree crown, Shen Mu suddenly leaped, jumping out from the bird's nest. His figure was surrounded by countless rapidly rotating teleportation runes, transforming into a faint streak of light, flying toward the "wound" in the Yuan Realm's ever-contracting spatial barrier. "Venerable Mu, I have waited a million years for you!
"
From Heavenly Venerable Yu's mouth came a voice that seemed both laughing and crying: "A million years ago, you held the advantage of the latecomer, using divine abilities from a million years later to deal with me—that is why I lost to you!
But a million years later, I hold the advantage of the earlycomer. I have a million years of wisdom, a million years of time to repair and perfect the Heavenly Court!
"
As Shen Mu fell, he looked back and saw those two terrifying gods fighting at close quarters. Behind Heavenly Venerable Yu, within the majestic Heavenly Court, inside palace after palace and hall after hall, faceless gods stood, like lords of heavenly palaces, like great emperors. "Heavenly Venerable Hao has immersed himself in the Heavenly Court realm for so long; he truly possesses inconceivable power.
"
Shen Mu accelerated his fall, thinking: "However, he has already been gravely wounded, and Mother Earth has seized the initiative. If he fought to the death, he might still be able to kill Mother Earth, but he is a man who cherishes his life—so it was a million years ago, and so it is a million years later.
For the sake of his position in the Heavenly Court, he will certainly not allow himself to be too badly damaged; he will surely abandon Mother Earth and return to the Heavenly Court.
Until his wounds heal, he will not make any major moves. "
The Yuan Realm's barrier healed, and his figure disappeared into the Yuan Realm. Meanwhile, beyond the heavens, those two incomparably terrifying existences were still battling.
Their divine abilities even repeatedly tore open the sky of the Yuan Realm, letting the beings of the lower realm see the terrifying figures of those two existences, awed by the power they displayed.
As the battle raged beyond the heavens, Mother Earth's wounds grew ever more severe, and gradually she began to feel her strength failing. "Venerable Mu, what should I do next? " Her thoughts rippled, and only then did she realize that Shen Mu was no longer in the tree crown. Mother Earth felt somewhat panicked. Shen Mu's guidance had allowed her to escape her passive position, but now she was at a disadvantage again, and Shen Mu had vanished without a trace, causing a thrill of mortal terror to rise in her heart.
Yet even more terrified than her was Heavenly Venerable Hao. After all, Mother Earth had already lost everything, while he still possessed everything. His position in the Heavenly Court was too high—so high that he could not allow himself to suffer too much damage, lest the other supremes of the Heavenly Court gladly seize his authority! And if he continued to fight head-on, he would face this bitter consequence.
However, if he could not eliminate Mother Earth, it would also be a tremendous blow to his prestige.
Until now, no supreme from the Heavenly Court had descended to help him. Even Heavenly Venerable Huo, who had once been his shadow, had not come down to assist. Those in the Heavenly Court who usually treated him like a bosom friend now seemed to be waiting for an opportunity—an opportunity that made his blood run cold. Just then, a face appeared beyond the heavens—the face of another Heavenly Venerable Yu. Heavenly Venerable Hao was delighted, then startled. That Heavenly Venerable Yu did not attack, but merely watched from afar, a smile on his face.
"Does Your Majesty need help?
" that Heavenly Venerable Yu asked with a smile. Hearing this voice, Heavenly Venerable Hao immediately knew which supreme of the Heavenly Court this person was. The Yuan Realm.
