Tales Of Herding Gods | Chapter 1280 - Boarding A Pirate Ship

Qin Mu quickly walked forward and examined the exploded root. He saw that there was nothing abnormal about it.

"Who have I offended? I met with such a situation the moment I returned. Not only did I get shot by so many arrows, he even came to take my life…"

He couldn't help but shake his head. The world was difficult, and the human heart was not what it used to be.

The egg of Tai Shi rolled around the root and examined it. "That person has indeed vanished. Strange, truly strange!"

Qin Mu carried the divine bow on his back and was about to leave when his heart suddenly stirred. He saw a little girl with two braids bouncing over. She came to the tree roots that the divine bow had pierced through and examined them. She shook her head in a mature manner and swung her braids like a rattle drum.

"You, you…"

The girl with the twin braids shook her head and sighed. "You caused this trouble the moment you came back. What should we do now?"

Qin Mu examined the girl suspiciously and probed, "Tai Yi?"

Tai Shi's egg also recognized this girl and asked with a smile, "Old Dao brother, why did you transform into this appearance?"

"It's just convenient to meet people."

The girl said, "Celestial Venerable Mu, you shot through the roots and angered that person. You even opened up a path for him. That person will be able to crawl out of the roots tonight. When he does, he will retrieve his divine weapon and kill you!"

She couldn't help but shake her head and sigh. "He had planned to crawl out ever since the universe was created. After crawling for billions of years, he only managed to crawl out one arm. You are good, opening the passage for him the moment you come up. He will be able to come up tonight!"

Qin Mu felt a little guilty and probed, "This brother is the existence of the previous universe? He first sent his bow over and wanted to squeeze his way through the past until now?"

The girl nodded solemnly.

"How did he squeeze out from the tree?"

Qin Mu was puzzled and asked for guidance, "I know about substitution of matter, but why does he have to squeeze into this universe through the roots of the big black wood?"

"Because, when the previous universe was destroyed, only this tree was immortal."

The girl sighed too easily and said, "The substance of this tree is unchanging, be it in this universe, the previous universe, or the previous universes. Thus, a passage was left behind, allowing the creatures of the past universe to crawl here through this tree."

Qin Mu understood a little.

This situation was similar to Celestial Venerable Ling's unchanging substance divine art. They both transmigrated through the unchanging substance.

"In that case, why did this tree die?" Qin Mu saw First Ancestor and the rest rushing over and continued to ask.

"I chopped it."

That little girl said loudly, "After I chopped it down, I even set a fire."

Qin Mu and Tai Shi felt their blood run cold.

The girl said too easily, "Daoist Tai Shi, at that time, you guys were still ignorant and didn't have any consciousness. The masters of creation weren't born either. I realized that as long as this World Tree existed, there would be endless disasters, so I cut it down and burned it. I just didn't expect this World Tree to still be alive."

Qin Mu took a look at the egg of Tai Shi, thinking that it was also looking at him.

'This time, Celestial Venerable Mu shot an arrow, causing the root of the disaster to be revealed.'

The little girl stroked her braids and muttered, "Tonight, the strong practitioners of the past era will climb up and take back the divine bow, killing Celestial Venerable Mu."

Qin Mu's face turned pale, and he suddenly laughed. "Dao Brother Tai Yi, don't you have that kind of miraculous water? Can you fetch a bucket of water and patch up the roots?"

"Do you think that water came from nowhere?"

The girl rolled her eyes at him and said, "There's only this small bucket of water every day. I've already used up all of it today."

Qin Mu's expression turned bitter.

The little girl turned to leave and said, "Tonight, you will stay here with the bow and wait for that prehistoric existence to descend. When the earth quakes and the mountains tremble, it will be when he tries to descend. When the earth quakes and the mountains shake, you will count to ten and pull out the bow to shoot an arrow there. If he doesn't come out by daybreak, he won't be able to come out."

Qin Mu was worried and immediately said, "Dao brother, you…"

"Don't worry, I'll come over tonight to help." The girl quickly disappeared.

Qin Mu tightened his grip on the divine bow and composed himself. He was at ease. "Tai Yi is the oldest ancient god after all, and he has already transcended. He's not as weak as Tai Shi. With him around, we will definitely be able to pass safely tonight."

First Ancestor, Mute, and the rest rushed over. Blind asked with concern, "Mu'er, are you injured? Let Apothecary take a look at you!"

Qin Mu rolled his eyes at them and told them what had happened. Everyone was astonished.

Qin Mu revealed a hopeful expression and asked, "Who wants to guard here with me tonight?"

Blind turned to leave and said, "We also have business. Mute, let's go and continue refining the treasures in the Glassy Sky Pagoda."

Mute caught up with him and said, "That's right. There are too many treasures in the Glassy Sky Pagoda, and I'm afraid it will take a few years to completely refine them. Apothecary, don't you have spirit pills to refine?"

Apothecary hurriedly followed after him and turned his head back. "Fatty Dragon, Yan'er, come and help me start a fire! Yunjian, you rascal, what are you joining in the fun for? Your godfather is courting death, do you also want to die?"

The dragon qilin hesitated for a moment before shaking his head and tail to follow, leaving Qin Mu where he was.

Yan'er stuffed Celestial Venerable Yue's lantern into Qin Mu's hands. "Take care, young master!" She then slipped away.

Qin Mu looked at First Ancestor, Yi Shan, Qi Kang, and the rest of the human emperors and revealed a delighted expression. He said with a smile, "Human Emperor, with the future of all races as your responsibility, you shall bear the future of the human race…"

"We are the previous human emperors, we no longer have this responsibility."

Human Emperor Qi Kang patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "It's time for you to take in a disciple and throw your burden on your disciple's shoulders. Back then, these old things did the same thing… Let's go, let's go, don't disturb Mu'er's cultivation!"

First Ancestor Human Emperor walked at the back and came in front of Qin Mu. He gave it some thought and sighed. Shaking his head, he followed the human emperors.

Qin Mu stood there blankly. After a long time, he sighed and said in a low voice, "A friend in need is a friend. Only Dao Friend Tai Shi is a true friend. Follow me."

The egg of Tai Shi struggled with all its might, trying to escape. However, Qin Mu's palm held onto him tightly, preventing him from escaping. He said angrily, "Qin brat, you are the one who caused this trouble. You can take it on yourself, why drag me along? I have yet to be born, I don't have such a great ability!"

"Only you treat me the best," Qin Mu said sincerely.

The egg of Tai Shi really couldn't escape, so it could only accept its fate and say, "I'll just accompany you. It's also good to see the strong practitioners of a universe."

Qin Mu was at ease. He looked around and chose a high ground.

He came to a broken mountain and sat in a lotus position. He placed the egg of Tai Shi beside him and waited quietly.

When Tai Shi saw this, he knew what this fellow was planning to do. When he couldn't resist any longer, he would push himself out to take on the attack of an expert from the previous universe.

"I seem to have made the worst choice. I should have worked together with Tai Su to get rid of this little brat. Even if I had come out in advance, I wouldn't have to be so alarmed and fearful…"

He had a bitter resentment in his heart. "Now that I'm on a pirate ship, I can't get off."

Time slowly passed.

Finally, night fell.

The hundred thousand mountains of the big black tree were peaceful, but outside the big black tree, the earth was shaking and mountains were shaking. There were sounds of collapsing everywhere, and it was a magnificent sight of the universe being destroyed!

Qin Mu became nervous. Suddenly, the mountains in the valley trembled violently!

He suddenly stood up and unleashed his divine treasure realm without any explanation. His corporeal body expanded, and he stretched out his hand to grab the divine bow. Taking in a deep breath, he pulled the divine bow open!
