Tales of Herding Gods

That woman's voice rang out, and she said leisurely, "Kneel and worship me, tell me what you are thinking."

Celestial Venerable Hao struggled with all his might and prostrated in front of the woman's feet.

Just as he said what he was thinking, he felt the injuries on his body recovering at an unimaginable speed!

The divine blood he had lost was flowing back into his body.

His body quickly became lighter.

Flesh and blood grew between his neck and head, and they soon grew back together. He no longer had to worry about his head getting washed off by qi and blood.

At the same time, he heard the clear cry of the Dao. He felt his celestial palace reconstructing in his body, and the Dao injuries on his body also faded away, no longer existing!

This was too marvelous.

This wasn't a medical skill, nor was it a spell, nor was it a creation technique. It was more like a marvelous Dao was treating him according to his will!

"Tai Su?"

Qin Mu's voice traveled into Celestial Venerable Hao's ears, and his heart stirred slightly. 'Tai Su? My father is called Grand Primordium, and this woman is called Tai Su. Could she be… She's a precelestial god born from the mine of the ancestral court?'

He was slightly flustered. To borrow the power of the Tai Su Dao to revive, there was clearly a huge hidden danger!

Tai Su might use this chance to control himself!

However, he endured it. It might be bad if he borrowed the power of Tai Su to recover, but if he didn't, it would only be worse. He might even die!

"Celestial Venerable Mu." The woman's voice rang out. It was pleasant to the ears, like the most mysterious melody.

Qin Mu stopped and looked at the woman standing behind Celestial Venerable Hao.

The goddess was flawless, and as she stood there, all kinds of light flowed around her like a dreamscape. The light gently spread, and the area it covered became wider.

Qin Mu floated back and said with a smile, "Tai Su, Dao Brother Tai Su, don't forget that without me, you will never be born. There's no enmity between us. In fact, I'm indebted to you. If I hadn't freed you from the Glassy Sky Pagoda, you would still be a treasure in the Glassy Sky Pagoda and would be controlled by someone!"

The light suddenly covered Qin Mu and closed with a whoosh. Qin Mu's eyes jumped, and he escaped from the Great Void and Youdu before the light closed. He came to the land of the Great Void and said with a smile, "Dao Brother Tai Su, I'll give you face today and spare Celestial Venerable Hao's life. Brother Hao, I'll leave your life for you. Come back another day to take it!"

He appeared in the Land of the Great Void and was shocked to discover that the light was still around him!

Qin Mu felt his blood run cold. The light was formed from the Great Dao of Tai Su, and it was incomparably marvelous. In the instant he was astonished, it had already transformed into a divine object that was pinned on his head!

It was a huge bell. When Qin Mu had probed the Tai Su Divine Egg back then, his consciousness had snuck into the egg, and he could only see the vast primordial chaos. The primordial qi had transformed into a huge bell that was exactly the same as the one in front of him!

There were birds, beasts, insects, fish, sun, moon, stars, galaxies, stars, and all kinds of things on the wall. They contained the power to split heaven and earth!

Qin Mu's hair stood on end. Without any explanation, he took out the Tai Shi egg and said in an incomprehensible Tai Shi language, "Dao Brother Tai Shi, I don't care what kind of shady business you have with Tai Su, but as long as you help me escape this calamity, I will wholeheartedly search for the Tai Shi Origin Stone and take back the mine to help you come into being!"

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

A long laugh came from the egg of Tai Shi. The power of the Great Simplicity Divine Bell on Qin Mu's head burst forth, and a power that could destroy heaven and earth rushed over. Wherever the bell went, space would cease to exist, and everything would turn into powder!

Countless runes of the Great Dao appeared on the egg, and it was as if countless ancient gods and all living beings were chanting the same name in unison. A grand light met the bell and held it up, preventing it from ringing.

The voice of the ancient god inside the egg of Tai Shi rang out in Qin Mu's mind. "She's already born, and I'm not her match. I can't stop her for long, let's go!"

Qin Mu's face turned black. He had originally thought that the egg of Tai Shi would be able to block Tai Su's attack, so he had made a promise to find the mine to help him come into being.

Unexpectedly, this Tai Shi was like a silver spear drawn by a crayon. He looked good but was useless!

He raised both of his hands high up and carried the egg as he sprinted away.

That Tai Su Divine Bell shattered the light of the egg of Tai Shi and transformed into a huge cauldron. Under the cauldron was thick earth qi that rose and fell densely. The huge cauldron spun, and Qin Mu, who was escaping, instantly felt the heaven and earth spinning and twisting!

Even though he was escaping frantically, he was still continuously falling into the cauldron!

"Tai Shi!"

Qin Mu gave a loud shout, and even more complicated Dao markings appeared on the surface of the egg. It spun in the opposite direction, and cryptic Dao words came from the egg. "Yin and Yang intersect, merging into one, forming the shape of one's life. There is form but no substance!"

That Tai Su Divine Cauldron distorted the space and time of heaven and earth. When it was attacked by the Great Dao overflowing from the egg of Tai Shi, the space and time of heaven and earth suddenly stopped twisting.

Qin Mu immediately took the chance to escape.

"Dao Brother Tai Shi!"

Tai Su's voice came from afar. "You and I once agreed to work together on a big matter. Are you going to go back on your words?"

Qin Mu raised the egg high up and sprinted. An obscure voice came from the egg, and he chuckled. "Dao Brother Taisu, you came into being before me. You aren't perfect, and I know your intentions. In order to restrict me, you will definitely break my egg and let me come out in advance. The previous alliance was for us to fight against Tai Chu, but there's no need for that now. I want to join forces with him!"

"If you work with him, you will be my enemy!" Tai Su was furious.

The two of them stopped talking.

Tai Su knew that it would be hard to take down Qin Mu with the hands of Tai Shi, so he stopped chasing after him.

Qin Mu raised the egg of Tai Shi and escaped for tens of thousands of miles. He saw the army of gods and devils of Carefree Village and the masters of creation charging into the main camp of the celestial heavens. The gods and devils of both sides were fighting fiercely, and it wasn't safe anywhere.

Qin Mu ran all the way. This battlefield was simply too vast, and there were gods and devils fighting everywhere, making him unable to stop.

After a long time, Qin Mu finally stopped and put down the egg of Tai Shi. He placed his palm on the egg and gasped for breath. There were fewer gods and devils in the surroundings, and only a few deserters on the battlefield had escaped here. When they encountered the deserters among the enemies, they would fight again.

"Put your hands down! You're pressing on my head!" a voice came from the egg.

Qin Mu immediately retracted his palm and continued to pant.

Tai Shi in the egg said, "Celestial Venerable Mu, I'm at a disadvantage if I join forces with you. I offended Tai Su because of you, and now that she's born, I'm not her match. You aren't Celestial Venerable Hao's match, and both of us are very weak. I've suffered this loss, so you have to compensate me!"

Qin Mu was stunned and burst into laughter. "Are all egg-born ancient gods so secular?"

Tai Shi in the egg said, "The only ones that can truly transcend are those that are Tai Yi. Which of the other ancient gods are born normally? Being disturbed by the mortal world, they have the heart of the mortal world, so I can't be free from this."

Qin Mu felt slightly guilty and probed, "I injured Hao Tian so badly. Even if it's Tai Su, I can't heal him in such a short time, right?"

In his eyes, Celestial Venerable Hao's injuries were so severe that he wouldn't be able to recover without tens of thousands of years!

Celestial Venerable Yue's injuries weren't healed yet, and Celestial Venerable Hao's injuries were even worse than Celestial Venerable Yue's!
