Tales Of Herding Gods | Chapter 1634 - The Path Of The Hall Of Chaos
"Miluo Palace should be a combination divine art that they comprehended after comprehending the Dao markings of Miluo Palace or the primordial runes, right?"
Qin Mu walked into the chaos, his mind still trying to recall the combined attack of the sixty-seven Daoist apparition.
That strike should have been a terrifying divine art that was specifically targeted at him. He could see that when he was facing Miluo Palace, all of his divine arts, paths, and skills were useless. It was as if he was completely countered and had no power to resist.
If it was any other place, even though Qin Mu wouldn't die, he would still be severely injured. He probably wouldn't be able to recover from his injuries in a hundred thousand years.
However, their attack was in Qin Mu's divine treasure universe. Here, they didn't even have the right to injure Qin Mu.
Of course, this was all because he had planted the Ruins of End Lotus before, allowing his technique to achieve the unification of life and death.
Otherwise, even in the divine treasure universe, Qin Mu would be severely injured even if he didn't die.
"How unpopular am I in the prehistoric universe?"
Qin Mu frowned slightly. "There are only so many seventy-two throne halls in the Jade Capital City of the ancestral court, yet the hall masters of the seventy-two throne halls don't even want to see me. They are ganging up to kill me!"
He couldn't help but shake his head.
Where was Celestial Venerable Mu not loved by all?
In the past, everyone was shouting for him to be killed?
At this moment, he walked to the bottom of the hall.
He raised his head and saw nothing in front of him. It was like the ultimate void.
There were no stone steps in the chaos hall, and it stood tall in the void. He didn't know how to ascend the hall.
Qin Mu hesitated for a moment and took a step forward. At the same time, a long stone step appeared under his feet.
The stone steps seemed to be forged from chaos stones as they appeared out of thin air.
When Qin Mu's feet landed on the stone steps, an unimaginable pressure assaulted him from all directions!
This pressure was extremely strong. The source of the pressure seemed to be the power of the hall itself, but it also felt like Qin Mu's own power was suppressing him.
What was even weirder was that a Dao voice came from beside his ear. It was like a Dao Question, enlightening even the deaf and enlightening the enlightening spirit!
This sentence came from the Chaotic Palace, as if someone was asking him with the Great Dao!
What puzzled Qin Mu was that this voice was clearly his own!
"What's inside that hall? Is it another me or someone else?"
Qin Mu didn't answer this question. Instead, he endured the pressure and retracted his other leg, taking another step forward.
However, to his surprise, the second stone step didn't appear. There was still nothing in front of him.
The pressure suddenly increased!
'It should be because I didn't answer the Dao Question that caused this change!'
Qin Mu retracted his foot, and that question came again.
He carefully pondered over this question, Dao Question, and it was hard to use ordinary words to express it. No matter if it was the god language or the devil language, they could at most express a part of the meaning of Dao and couldn't completely describe Dao.
Dao Questioning used the Dao language, which could be said to be the most precise language without any misunderstanding. It could also be said to be the most common language.
Of course, this kind of general use was targeted at those who had achieved the path, as well as a few existences that had reached an extremely high realm in their paths, skills, and divine arts.
They communicated using Dao language without any obstruction, so they wouldn't misunderstand each other's meaning. This was also why Qin Mu was able to communicate with prehistoric successors.
Similarly, Dao Questioning was also a kind of divine art, a kind of great killing weapon. If the other party's cultivation was inferior to his Dao heart had a flaw, Dao Questioning could make the other party fall into self-doubt and self-doubt!
Emperor Hao Tian had once used this move to harm Qin Mu.
However, the Dao Question coming from the Hall of Chaos wasn't that simple. Other than directly attacking Qin Mu's Dao heart, the question was also the problem he had encountered during his cultivation.
"Who is asking me?"
Qin Mu frowned. As he endured the increasing pressure, he thought hard about the answer to this question.
When he was comprehending the Dao in the past, he tried to comprehend and solve this problem. However, there were too many trivial matters at that time, so he quickly threw this problem aside and went to seek other paths and skills.
Someone once said that he was a silly roe deer. This description was very apt.
The silly roe deer was very curious about everything and could discover many secrets that others couldn't. However, the silly roe deer didn't have the patience to get to the bottom of everything, so Qin Mu left behind many problems that could be solved on the path of cultivation.
Actually, with his current knowledge, it was no longer as difficult to answer these questions later.
He racked his brains and tried to answer this question. Right at this moment, the stone steps under his feet gave off light cracking sounds as cracks appeared on the stone steps.
Suddenly, the stone steps cracked open, and pieces of chaos stones fell off.
When the Chaos Gems descended, they melted into nothingness!
Qin Mu held his breath and focused. He closed his eyes and ignored everything, continuing to think hard.
Seeing that he had no place to stand, Qin Mu suddenly opened his eyes and spoke Dao language to answer this question!
The stone steps under his feet instantly stopped crumbling.
When Qin Mu finished answering Dao Question, the stone steps under his feet actually became complete without him knowing.
Qin Mu let out a sigh of relief and stretched out his hand to wipe off his cold sweat. Only then did he remember that he was in the form of a primordial spirit and didn't break out in cold sweat. If he had, his corporeal body should be breaking out in cold sweat.
He put all his heart and soul into ascending the Hall of Chaos, completely unaware that outside the Surging River Celestial Palace, the cold sweat that was flowing out from his corporeal body had already flooded his ankles and turned into a small pond.
The first question was answered by him, and Qin Mu felt his entire body relaxing. The pervasive pressure from before instantly vanished.
Not only that, he felt that his Dao heart had become more clear, and his Dao skills had also increased slightly.
He took a step forward. At this moment, the second chaos stone step automatically appeared under his feet.
At the same time, Qin Mu's voice came from the high and mighty Hall of Chaos, giving off a second question!
This Dao Question was also something that Qin Mu had encountered during his cultivation process, yet he had thrown away the problem that he didn't seek to solve!
"How interesting!"
Qin Mu's primordial spirit's gaze flickered, and he became more curious about what was inside the hall. He thought to himself, 'Could there be another me inside? Or could it be that my Dao heart is asking questions? I really want to go in and take a look…'
His current realm was equivalent to the Numinous Sky Realm after the Jade Capital Realm.
Numinous Sky and Emperor's Throne were two traditional realms, and Qin Mu didn't have a deep understanding of them.
He didn't have the Numinous Sky Hall. Instead, he used his own technique to transform it into a hall of chaos. He didn't know what he would encounter if he ascended the hall of chaos.
He didn't even know if other people would encounter the same thing when they cultivated to the Numinous Sky Realm.
Would everyone who cultivated to a similar realm receive the same test?
When they were standing in front of the Numinous Sky Hall, would Dao Question come from the Numinous Sky Hall and ask the question that they had given up while seeking Dao?
Would their Dao Question strike directly at their Dao hearts?
However, he couldn't think too much about it.
The chaos stone steps under his feet had already started to crumble. The pressure he was enduring was also increasing continuously. He had to solve the problem he had avoided before the stone steps completely collapsed!
He racked his brains and tried his best to solve this second question.
Finally, he solved this problem before the stone steps completely collapsed and answered in Dao language.
The third stone step appeared, and Qin Mu's voice came from the Hall of Chaos. It was another question he had avoided.
Qin Mu's mind calmed down, and he no longer hurried forward. Instead, he quietly sat on the stone steps in front of the Hall of Chaos to solve all kinds of problems he had abandoned during his cultivation.
There were some problems he couldn't be bothered to solve, some problems he couldn't solve back then, and some problems he forgot to solve.
And now, these questions were blocking the front of the hall of chaos, becoming the biggest problem for him to enter and ascend to the Emperor's Throne!
It was only a matter of time before he had to pay back the debt he had owed because of a moment of relaxation!
Now was the time to return the debt, but at the same time, it was also a process to make up for the deficiencies.
To make up for the flaws in his cultivation path.
Slowly, Qin Mu's answers became more numerous. His Dao heart became more perfect, and his own Dao skills were also gradually improving. Even though every time he filled in the gaps, his Dao skills didn't improve much, but as he walked down the stone steps, he accumulated more, and his accumulated Dao skills were also very impressive.
He had already walked over a hundred stone steps, and that Hall of Chaos was right in front of him. However, every time he took a step forward, new stone steps would appear!
Furthermore, the Dao enquiries coming from the Hall of Chaos were becoming more unfathomable, making it even more difficult for him to answer them!
"Dao Wen will be finished sooner or later, and I will be able to ascend this hall sooner or later!"
Qin Mu composed himself and walked forward steadily. After an unknown period of time, he still couldn't reach the Hall of Chaos.
He turned his head back to take a look and saw that the chaos stone steps stretched over ten miles like a white line that stretched into the Jade Capital City. However, when he raised his head to take a look, he saw that the Hall of Chaos was still not too far away from him yet he couldn't step on it.
Qin Mu composed himself. This realm corresponded to the Numinous Sky Realm. Only then did he know why there were so few strong practitioners on the Numinous Sky Realm and Emperor's Throne Realm.
Most likely, the strong practitioners of Numinous Sky Realm would also face all kinds of Dao questions at this stage. The Dao questions and pressure they might face wouldn't be as abnormal as Qin Mu's, but it was enough to trap them in front of Numinous Sky Hall!
At this moment, Dao Wen asked a difficult question about the Dao of Taiji, which was related to the principle of Taiji evolving Yin and Yang.
Qin Mu frowned and thought hard for a long time. The stone steps under his feet had already collapsed to the point where he could only stand on one foot, and he couldn't think of an answer.
He sighed and took a step back, landing on the stone steps behind him.
"I can answer Dao Question later, maybe I can slowly think about this problem. How long have I been here? I wonder how the outside world is doing."
His corporeal body slowly woke up, and he saw an old bull sitting under the shade of a tree not far in front of him. His chest was exposed, and he was currently smoking a water pipe. Beside him sat a few Kui dragons, looking at him eagerly.
The old bull handed over the tobacco pipe, and the few kui dragons hurriedly took it over. They took two puffs before handing it to the other kui dragons.
Far away by the river, there was also a pure black tiger that used its tail to fish the red kun in the celestial river. Suddenly, there was a crack, and the black tiger hurriedly pulled back its tail from the river. It saw that its tail had become shorter, and it was actually bitten off by a red kun!
The black tiger pulled a long face and executed creation techniques. Its tail slowly grew out again.
A majestic cry came from the forest further away, and a voice that was as unpleasant as a donkey sounded out, "Let me take a bite. I won't eat you, just one bite—"
Qin Mu was suspicious and asked, "Senior Brother Sanduo, why are you guys here?"
The old bull saw him waking up and hurriedly stood up. "Celestial Venerable, the four great heavenly teachers are all here. Seeing that you are cultivating, they didn't disturb you and are waiting in the palace!"
"The four great heavenly teachers are all here?"
Qin Mu was stunned and immediately walked towards the palace. Village Chief and Apothecary were drinking tea under a huge tree in front of the palace gate. Both of them were lying on rocking chairs and looked at Qin Mu lazily. Apothecary smiled and said, "Mu'er, you have cultivated for four months and have finally woken up."
"It's already been four months?"
Qin Mu was astonished. It hadn't taken him long to defeat the apparitions of the seventy-two Dao Successors, but answering questions in front of the Hall of Chaos had probably taken him nearly four months!
"Grandpa Apothecary, have you heard the news of the celestial heavens negotiating with Eternal Peace?" Qin Mu hurriedly asked.
"Yu Chen'zi has already looked for you once. When he saw that you didn't wake up, he left in a hurry."
Apothecary thought about it and said, "He seems to be saying that the negotiations between the celestial heavens and Eternal Peace are about to fall through."
