Chapter 436 — Encounter in Another World

They were not demon gods of the Wasteland but came from another world. Thus when they crossed into this world, they needed to turn their bodies to stone — their power could not come across! "What on earth is the matter with this place? " Shen Mu's mind was in a daze.

In the night of the Wasteland, three or five different worlds had appeared, and now that the Divine Severance Mountains had collapsed, another new world was invading! "Could another world be about to overlap with Jingping? Why is such an inconceivable thing happening?

" He had just thought this when the demon eye on the flag rolled back and forth, surveying the surroundings, and suddenly its gaze fell upon them lying on the ground feigning death. The demon eye revealed a mocking look. Shen Mu's heart turned cold.

The flag suddenly dropped from behind the statue and planted itself before them. Shen Mu feigned death no longer — he sprang up and shouted, "Flood Dragon King Deity! " At these words the Flood Dragon King Deity immediately assumed his original form. Shen Mu scooped up Xue Hu'er and leaped onto the dragon's back. The Dragon Qilin led the other flood dragons scrambling up onto the dragon's back, and the Flood Dragon King Deity roared and charged forward!

Behind them, the statue turned, its great hand slamming down with extreme speed!

The Flood Dragon King Deity roared in fury, his vital essence bursting forth and transforming into a surging flood. The flood became a great river that raced up along the statue's arm, seeking to grind the arm to splinters. The statue's arm bent, then snapped straight — one bend, one extension — and the Flood Dragon King Deity's divine ability was shattered to pieces.

The Flood Dragon King Deity shuddered with dread and cried out sharply, "My lord, it is a true god! " "A true demon, rather!

" Shen Mu corrected. The statue lifted and set down its feet, catching up to the Flood Dragon King Deity in a few strides, its other great hand slamming down. The Flood Dragon King Deity dodged in panic, while the flag floated up into the air and, with a sharp thunk, planted itself down again — the demon eye on its surface still fixed on them.

When the Flood Dragon King Deity had fled some distance, the petrified flag flew up once more and planted itself not far from them, like a flag that skipped and bounced along.

"This stone statue relies on that eye to see! Without it, the statue cannot see us!

" Shen Mu suddenly understood. He immediately took the Taiyang Jade Eye from the Taotie Bag, placed it on the dragon's back, and without another word activated it. Hum— A beam of solar divine light tore through the darkness and mist, slicing into the demon eye on the flag.

Instantly a black light shot from the demon eye, blocking the solar divine light.

Shen Mu's other hand drew out the Taiyin Jade Eye and adjusted its direction. From the Taiyin Jade Eye shot a thin blade of light, and wherever it passed, space itself nearly solidified into substance! The light of the two jade eyes, one yin and one yang, instantly tore apart the demon eye's black light and blasted the demon eye in the flag to smithereens.

In the center of the petrified flag, only a broken hole remained! "Activating the Taiyin Jade Eye and Taiyang Jade Eye together seems to make them more powerful!

" Shen Mu suppressed his astonishment and looked up.

The demon eye was gone, and the stone statue's movements abruptly froze.

It cocked its ear, as if listening for something. "Don't move," Shen Mu said in a low voice. The Flood Dragon King Deity hastily stopped.

Shen Mu whispered, "Walk gradually. Don't rush.

. .

" The Flood Dragon King Deity crept forward, fearful of making any sound. Shen Mu stared fixedly at the stone statue, which seemed to be looking this way and that, smashing here and kicking there, yet still did not detect them.

Suddenly the Flood Dragon King Deity's body froze, and he said in a trembling voice, "My lord.

. .

" "Keep walking! " Shen Mu said without turning his head. "My lord, look ahead!

" the Flood Dragon King Deity said, his voice hoarse. Xue Hu'er also said in a trembling voice, "Young Master, look ahead. .

.

" "Ahead? " Shen Mu was slightly startled.

He turned to look, and could not help but be stunned, unable to recover for a long while.

Behind them, the stone statue was smashing in all directions, striking with such force that heaven and earth seemed to crumble, and it was closing in on them.

And Shen Mu seemed utterly unaware. After a long while, he murmured, "Imperial Preceptor of Jingping, what have you done. .

.

"
