Tales of Herding Gods

Lin Xuan sighed and said, "If I want to learn, I have to use the nineteenth sword form, Facing Calamity Sword, to break the celestial palace and the seven great divine treasures that I have painstakingly cultivated. Under this pressure, who can escape? Who is as strong as you? They will definitely be crushed to death."

He paused for a moment and continued, "Furthermore, I'm afraid even ordinary people can't cultivate it. No one has such dense vital qi to open up the primordial chaos when they are in the realm of martial arts. To open up the heaven and earth in their mind and create a small universe, not to mention gathering the spirit qi and spirit energy in their body to form a spirit embryo."

"How powerful are you? However, you only have the ability to establish this cultivation system now. Who else has the foundation to do so?"

Qin Mu frowned slightly.

Lin Xuan said, "If this technique of yours wants to be passed down, if you want to pass it down, you can only reduce it and lower the difficulty of cultivation. If you lower the difficulty, the people of the later generations won't be as strong as you."

He thought about it and said, "Even so, it will be much stronger than the system of divine treasures and celestial palaces."

Qin Mu carefully considered it for a moment and nodded his head, sighing ruefully. "You're right, I'm a little too strong. I thought others were as strong as me, but I never thought I was the Overlord Body."

Lin Xuan's face turned black, and he pressed down on the hilt of the Dao Sword, wishing he could pull out his sword to slash him. He then slowly let go and snorted. "If I wasn't unable to defeat you…"

Finally, Qin Mu learned the First Qi of Connate, but he couldn't refine the Great Algebra Dao Domain. He excused himself and said, "I'm planning to go to West Earth to meet Xu Shenghua."

Dao Master Lin Xuan's eyes lit up, and he was very reserved. He said politely, "If Xu Shenghua challenges you, you must do your best and not give him the chance to take advantage."

Qin Mu understood. "I understand, don't worry."

Dao Master Lin Xuan let out a sigh of relief and sent Qin Mu off earnestly. He sent Qin Mu far away before reluctantly returning to the Dao Sect.

Qin Mu carried the lantern forward and unknowingly came to the center of the Primordial Realm. The Primordial Tree was verdant and lush, covering half of the Primordial Realm. Celestial Venerable Xiao's celestial palace floated in the tree crown while Celestial Venerable Yu floated at the side.

Qin Mu was about to pass by the Primordial Tree when a voice suddenly rang out. "Celestial Venerable Mu, hold on!"

Qin Mu stopped and turned around. It was the master of Sky Prison, Left Assistant Minister Yan Shaoqing.

Yan Shaoqing seemed to be seeing him for the first time. He went forward to greet him and said, "Celestial Venerable Mu, Celestial Venerable Xiao wants to see you."

"Celestial Venerable Xiao wants to see me?"

Qin Mu muttered to himself and raised his head to look at Celestial Venerable Xiao's celestial palace.

Yan Shaoqing looked at him, feeling anxious.

He wasn't an easy person. His consciousness attainments were the highest in the celestial heavens. The ten Celestial Venerables were all looking forward to him creating a consciousness technique on the Emperor's Throne level.

Of course, there were at least three people in the celestial heavens whose consciousness attainments surpassed his. They were the Grand Emperor's Heavenly Lady Qiang, Celestial Venerable Gong Yun, Celestial Venerable Gong, and Celestial Emperor's son, God Emperor Lang Xuan.

These three people hid their identities and didn't reveal themselves, so on the surface, Left Assistant Minister Yan Shaoqing's consciousness attainments were still the highest.

Even though Yan Shaoqing's consciousness cultivation was high, it was too rough. He had once fallen into the trap of Qin Mu and Jiang Baigui and almost couldn't walk out of the illusion.

Later on, he still listened to Qin Mu's suggestion and went to Eternal Peace to learn the results of Eternal Peace's reform. He had quite some achievements over the years and was getting closer to the Emperor's Throne Realm.

'Celestial Venerable Xiao should be the mysterious strong practitioner that ambushed the ghost ship on the Surging River.'

Qin Mu said in a low voice, "I told him to back off because he was afraid of being trapped by the Dao of Tai Shi and unchanging divine art, so he left. He must have come to see me for the things on the ghost ship. Other than Celestial Empress' corporeal body, I'm afraid there's also Jue Wuchen's corporeal body. Hmm, there should also be the Feathered Forest Guards. After all, he's the reincarnation of the ancient Celestial Emperor…"

Yan Shaoqing felt a chill down his spine. He wanted to block his ears and not listen to him, but he grumbled in his heart, 'The more I know, the faster I'll die! I'm going to die!'

Qin Mu took a glance at him and continued to speak slowly, "The fifty thousand Feathered Forest Guards are all ancient geniuses. With a little training, their battle power will definitely advance by leaps and bounds, and they will become a great helper to him. Celestial Empress' corporeal body can threaten Celestial Empress, but as for Jue Wuchen's corporeal body, hehe, he was killed by Celestial Venerable Hao and the rest back then without obtaining Jue Wuchen, so he naturally has to sleep…"

Yan Shaoqing felt despair in his heart. His legs had no strength left, and he collapsed to the ground.

Qin Mu bent down and patted him on the shoulder. He said with a smile, "Left Assistant Minister still hasn't sealed Southern Heavenly Gate and broken the divine bridge? Looks like you don't plan to rely on Eternal Peace anymore, so I won't give you a chance to live."

The corners of Yan Shaoqing's eyes twitched. He raised his head and said, "I'm willing to cripple my own divine bridge and seek refuge in Eternal Peace. Please give me a chance, Celestial Venerable."

Qin Mu smiled. "What's so difficult about that? I used my consciousness to seal this place just now, and even Celestial Venerable Xiao couldn't see through it. He doesn't know what we're talking about."

Yan Shaoqing was dumbfounded.

Qin Mu carried the lantern and continued to move forward, saying leisurely, "However, you know this secret. If you don't rebel against the celestial heavens, I'll tell Celestial Venerable Xiao that Heavenly Lady Yan will still die without a burial ground."

He turned his head and blinked. "I'll help you keep this secret."

Yan Shaoqing's face turned ashen.

Qin Mu laughed and left with the lantern.

Yan Shaoqing immediately shouted, "Celestial Venerable Mu, Celestial Venerable Xiao wants to see you. Aren't you going?"

"No!"

Qin Mu's voice came from afar. "I'm Celestial Venerable Mu, one of the five senior elders of the Heaven Alliance. Celestial Venerable Xiao is my martial nephew, so you should at least call me Dao brother. You want me to meet him? It's more like he's here to meet me!"

Yan Shaoqing was shocked.

Qin Mu carried the lantern and moved forward. Thousands of mountains and rivers passed by his feet in a flash. He was strolling leisurely, but with Celestial Venerable Yue's lantern around, even if his footsteps were slow, they were still frighteningly fast.

Suddenly, a beam of light chased after him from behind and only caught up to him after half a day. It blocked his path.

The light dispersed, and Celestial Venerable Xiao looked at Qin Mu silently with a dark expression.

Qin Mu smiled and put away the lantern. He said leisurely, "Xiao Weisu, I'm not your subject. You have a favor to ask of me, so you came to see me. You actually want me to meet you, how great of a face you have."

Celestial Venerable Xiao said coldly, "Celestial Venerable Mu, don't forget that taking your life is just a flick of a finger to me. How dare you be so impudent in front of me?"

Qin Mu laughed loudly, and his expression suddenly turned cold. "You need to flick a finger to kill me, but I only need to move my mouth to kill you. Your Majesty, not many people know about your reincarnation."

Killing intent exploded in Celestial Venerable Xiao's eyes.

"You are here to find the corporeal bodies of Celestial Empress and Jue Wuchen, what a joke. The majestic Celestial Emperor is actually so blinded by greed!"

Qin Mu said indifferently, "If I give you Celestial Empress' corporeal body and Jue Wuchen's corporeal body, can you use it to threaten Heavenly Lady Yan? Heavenly Lady Yan doesn't need this corporeal body anymore. As for Jue Wuchen, you only treat her as a plaything. You want to offend me for these two things?"

Celestial Venerable Xiao sneered. "Why can't you say that you want to offend me because of these two things?"

Qin Mu chuckled. "Celestial Empress can abandon her corporeal body, but you can't. I can break the ghost ship, and I can also break Celestial Venerable Ling's divine art. If you offend me, you can forget about retrieving your corporeal body!"

Celestial Venerable Xiao's eyes twitched.

Qin Mu flicked his sleeves and said, "You may leave."

Celestial Venerable Xiao gritted his teeth and walked away. When he came behind him, he suddenly stopped and tilted his head. "Celestial Venerable Mu, you are no longer under my control. You are growing very fast."

Qin Mu said indifferently, "Thanks to you. During the Eternal Peace Calamity, I learned a lot from you."

Celestial Venerable Xiao smiled and floated away. Her leisurely voice rang out, "However, you don't understand the general trend. As long as Eternal Peace is still around, you will never be able to escape my control!"
