Tales Of Herding Gods | Chapter 1319 - The Jade Capital Of The Ancestral Court
As the Grand Emperor cried out, the seal spun and flew into the air. Its light burst forth, and the head of the Grand Emperor grunted. His consciousness was automatically activated, and all kinds of strange Dao markings appeared on the seal!
Boom!
Qin Mu's mudra caused mountains to crumble and the earth to crack. The Grand Emperor's head felt that his consciousness had become the energy in this treasure mudra. Qin Mu didn't use his own cultivation in this attack and only executed the seal of the four mines. It was these four mines that absorbed his energy and transformed it into power!
"Son of a bitch, you refined me into a treasure!"
The head of the Grand Emperor cursed, but Qin Mu was about to activate the seal again. He hurriedly said, "Celestial Venerable Mu, we can discuss this!"
Qin Mu stopped and summoned back the seal. He said with a pleasant expression, "Dao brother, are you not going to reconsider Celestial Venerable Yun and Celestial Venerable Ling?"
The face of the Grand Emperor's head flickered, and he said dejectedly, "I've lost. However, I definitely can't hand Celestial Venerable Yun and Celestial Venerable Ling over to you, but we can still discuss some other things."
Qin Mu pretended to activate the seal, and the Grand Emperor hurriedly said, "Stop! This head of mine is indeed worthless. It was only visualized using the Tai Chu Origin Stone. It can't be compared to Celestial Venerable Yun's soul or Celestial Venerable Ling's life! No matter how much you humiliate me, I won't trade with you! We can exchange for something else!"
Qin Mu retracted his hand and asked suspiciously, "What else do you have to exchange? Dao Brother Grand Emperor, it's not that I'm looking down on you, but to be honest, I've occupied the biggest treasure land in the ancestral court. I have a hundred thousand black mountains, and I'm rich in minerals and resources! I also have a deal with Celestial Venerable Gong and Heavenly Lady Yan. To be honest, I don't care about the small amount of resources in your territory. If you want to exchange the treasures in Heavenly Lady Qiang's territory, don't ask."
The head of the Grand Emperor sneered and said, "That black mountain of yours is also considered a treasure land? I'll laugh my head off if I tell others! Celestial Venerable Mu, your black mountain is a place that even the ten Celestial Venerables can't see eye to eye with. In other words, you treat it like a treasure! My territory in the ancestral court is also a treasure land, many times better than your black mountain. It's a place where baleful aura gathers. Of course, I won't trade with you."
Qin Mu's heart stirred, and he asked humbly, "What's so special about the place Heavenly Lady Qiang occupies?"
The Grand Emperor smiled. "Nothing else. It's just a natural God Execution Stage in the ancestral court."
Qin Mu's heart beat violently a few times, and his voice was hoarse. "A natural God Execution Stage?"
"Celestial Venerable Mu, you are still too young."
The Grand Emperor chuckled. "My treasure land is the natural God Execution Stage, while God Emperor Lang Xuan's treasure land is the natural Jade Pool Saint Realm in the ancestral court! Other than that, there are other treasure lands in the ancestral court that correspond to the four great heavenly gates, thousands of palaces, ten thousand halls, and even the Jade Capital Sacred City! Even the Gate of Heaven Influence can be found in the ancestral court! Have you realized anything?"
Qin Mu's heart trembled violently, and he cried out, "You mean that there's a celestial heavens from the primordial era in the ancestral court?"
"Wrong, it's not the celestial heavens of the immemorial era."
The Grand Emperor said calmly, "It should be said that the celestial heavens of the later generations were built according to the specifications of the treasured grounds in the ancestral court of the primordial era. When Tai Chu and the ancient gods built the celestial heavens, it could be said that they almost copied the treasured grounds of the ancestral court. The Jade Pool corresponds to the Jade Pool of the ancestral court, the Southern Heavenly Gate corresponds to the Southern Heavenly Gate of the ancestral court, and the God Execution Stage imitates the God Execution Stage of the ancestral court. Now you should know why the Celestial Palace Realm is so important, right?"
Qin Mu's mind was blown.
The Celestial Palace Realm was founded by Celestial Venerable Yu, and Celestial Venerable Yu founded the Celestial Palace Realm. The people of the later generations cultivated according to the seven realms of the Celestial Palace and naturally obtained powerful abilities.
Where did this ability come from?
Why did every step he took in the celestial palace cause his own power to increase tremendously?
Why did gods have to pass through the God Execution Stage when they cultivated to a certain realm?
If the Dragon Han Celestial Heavens was laid out according to the geography of the ancestral court, it would make sense.
In the ancestral court, other than the five great ancient mines, there were also other precious lands like the Southern Heavenly Gate and the Jade Pool. The celestial heavens was built according to the specifications of these precious lands, and the Dragon Han Celestial Heavens had always carried the Great Dao of the ancestral court!
When the gods cultivated to the Southern Heavenly Gate realm, it was equivalent to crossing the Southern Heavenly Gate in the ancestral court to attain the path. They naturally obtained the corresponding power!
Qin Mu composed himself and suddenly asked, "In that case, what does Dao Brother Grand Emperor intend to exchange with me?"
"The location of Jade Capital City!"
The Grand Emperor said solemnly, "The God Execution Stage is already my territory, and I will never give this place to you. However, I can tell you the location of Jade Capital City. This Jade Capital City is much better than your black mountain. If you obtain this treasure land, you will soar in the future and become a Celestial Emperor!"
Qin Mu burst out laughing, and his laughter grew louder.
The head of the Grand Emperor said coldly, "What are you laughing at?"
Qin Mu laughed loudly and shook his head. "Grand Emperor, do you think I'm a three-year-old child? Let me tell you, I'm already sixteen years old! If Jade Capital City really is a supreme treasure land, why didn't you occupy it? How can Celestial Venerable Xiao, Heavenly Lady Yan, and Celestial Venerable Gong not occupy it? They are all people who have received the secrets of the ancestral court, and they know no less than you."
The corners of his mouth turned up, and he said indifferently, "You should indeed know the location of the Jade Capital City of the ancestral court. However, the danger there is so great that even Celestial Venerables would find it difficult to set foot there. In fact, it's even more dangerous than the five great mines. You are just trying to trick me into going to my death by using this information."
The head of the Grand Emperor was silent for a moment before sighing. "You guessed right. The Jade Capital Sacred City of the ancestral court is indeed a forbidden area. When I was revered as the Grand Emperor, I once led the most powerful ancient gods to explore that place, but I also retreated in the face of difficulties."
Qin Mu asked, "Which ancient gods did you lead?"
"Celestial Emperor Tai Chu, Mother Earth, and North Deity Xuan Wu. Other than them, there's also Bo Yang, Shu Jun, and Xin Fu. They each lead the other three deities to explore that place."
The Grand Emperor was silent for a moment before saying, "We didn't manage to explore the entire place and only explored the periphery. In the end, we had no choice but to leave. How about this, Celestial Venerable Mu, I'll tell you the location of Jade Capital City and allow you to enter my God Execution Stage again. Let me go."
He guided him patiently and said, "You have to know that the benefits you get from experiencing the God Execution Stage in your celestial palace are only ten thousandth of the real God Execution Stage! And the God Execution Stage I have there is the real God Execution Stage! As long as you can pass through my God Execution Stage, hehe, it's a good thing…"
Qin Mu was greatly moved. He hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth. "Give me the location of Jade Capital City first!"
"What's so difficult about that?"
The Grand Emperor used his consciousness to transmit the location of Jade Capital City directly into his mind. "Ever since we failed in exploring Jade Capital City the last time, we sealed that place. Even if you find that place, you can forget about finding it without the ancient gods and masters of creation leading the way. Also, don't run there by yourself. You must suppress your curiosity. The dangers there are unimaginable!"
The more he said that, the more curious Qin Mu became. He felt as though there were thousands of little vixens like Hu Ling'er living in his heart, using their tails to scratch his heart, making it itch more.
The Grand Emperor's head revealed a smile. As the Grand Emperor with unparalleled consciousness, he had long seen through Qin Mu's weakness. Not only Qin Mu, but all the other Celestial Venerables' weaknesses were also under his control!
