Tales Of Herding Gods | Chapter 1425 - A Steel-like Friendship
Qin Mu could feel the power of his God Execution Stage becoming stronger, especially after he had refined the power of the two Blood Fiend God Execution Knives. On his God Execution Stage, the power of the two Blood Fiend God Execution Knives also rose with the tide, becoming more terrifying!
Butcher, Tian Shu, Luo Wushuang, and Zhe Huali also took this chance to reconstruct their celestial palaces' God Execution Stage, but the benefits they received weren't as great as his.
The five of them refined the baleful aura on the God Execution Stage of the ancestral court. Four-fifths of it was refined by Qin Mu while the other one-fifth was distributed by Butcher and the rest.
Even so, it was no small matter.
There was no ancestral court in their divine treasures, only the God Execution Stage in the celestial palace. It was already a remarkable achievement for the four of them to lose one-fifth.
One had to know that the God Execution Stage of the ancestral court had accumulated baleful qi from the primordial era until now, and they had already refined half of it. This baleful qi was enough to allow their celestial palace's God Execution Stage to experience a qualitative leap!
This was especially so for Zhe Huali. Before he stepped into the God Execution Stage, he was still at the Jade Pool Realm. Now that he had leaped into the God Execution Stage Realm, the benefits he received were even more immeasurable!
He already had few opponents at the God Execution Stage!
At the God Execution Stage Realm, if a Celestial Venerable didn't appear, no one could compete with him!
Even though Butcher, Luo Wushuang, and Tian Shu's realms hadn't improved, their God Execution Stage Realm had become incomparably stable, and their Dao heart had improved by leaps and bounds. The benefits were unimaginable!
The baleful qi in their God Execution Stage increased the power of their knives, and it had a huge impact on their paths, skills, and divine arts. In addition, the God Execution Stage absorbed the baleful qi, and to Tian Shu and Butcher, these two existences that entered and left the battlefield, it solved the hidden danger of their Dao hearts being affected by the baleful qi.
The stronger their cultivation was, the faster they could refine the two knives, and the more benefits they would receive.
If they were given another three to five months, they would be able to completely refine the baleful aura on the God Execution Stage of the Ancestral Court and take it for themselves. They could even raise the five people's battle techniques to the height of 31 to 32 heavens!
When that time came, the five of them would most likely have the combat power of a Celestial Venerable when they worked together. At the very least, they could be called Little Celestial Venerables!
Of course, the five of them had worked together to raise the Dao Realm of the knife to that extent. If they were separated, even Qin Mu wouldn't be able to reach the thirty heavens of the Dao Realm.
Suddenly, Qin Mu felt that the power of the two baleful auras on God Execution Stage had suddenly increased by a huge margin. His expression changed drastically, and he said solemnly, "Retreat!"
His body moved, and the divine treasure realm bloomed layer by layer, pulling the other four people back!
Right at this moment, the power of the two baneful auras God Execution Knives increased exponentially, turning their vision red like blood. Endless sounds of battle rang out in their ears, deafening them and making their ears ring. It was as though they had come to the battlefield of the primordial era that could destroy heaven and earth!
The two evil dragons slashed at them, one from the left and one from the right.
Crack!
The space in the ancestral court trembled violently. Qin Mu and the rest had bloodshot eyes. They even saw the thirty-five voids being sliced apart by the two God Execution Knives!
This kind of power wasn't the power that the two God Execution Knives could unleash, but the result of an incomparably powerful existence unleashing its power to the extreme!
The power of the two God Execution Knives was too terrifying. If Qin Mu and the rest hadn't absorbed half of the baleful qi and transformed the two divine knives into their peak states, even Celestial Venerables would have a hard time withstanding their power!
If the divine knife materialized, its power could probably kill a Celestial Venerable!
"Heavenly Lady Qiang!"
Qin Mu flipped his palm and took out Celestial Venerable Ling's hairpin. His consciousness burst forth and transformed into a world-shaking explosion. He shouted, "You allowed us to enter the God Execution Stage, are you going back on your words?"
He waved the hairpin in his hand, and the power of the unchanging divine art burst forth. It was like a life and death struggle.
When he executed the unchanging divine art in the Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure, he had only used fragments of the unchanging divine art and not the full power of the unchanging divine art. If he executed the full power of this divine art, he could stop time and space, stop all changes in matter, and even reverse the flow of matter!
However, in that case, even Qin Mu would become unchanging substance and be trapped in this kind of divine art.
He could save Celestial Venerable Ling, but if he tried to save himself, he would have to use the power of the Grand Prime. To him, he would have to pay a huge price.
Just as he executed the unchanging divine art, Heavenly King Tian Shu raised the Imperial Gate Divine Knife and slashed down with force. He slashed out a Gate of Heaven Influence and shouted, "Go to Youdu first!"
Now that the ancestral court was open, Youdu had also come to the ancestral court. Entering Youdu to hide was also a good idea.
Heavenly King Tian Shu was one of the few existences that could cultivate Gate of Heaven Influence and open Youdu. That was why he was honored as Mingdu Heavenly King, and it was Earth Count who had personally bestowed him the title of Mingdu Heavenly King.
Qin Mu moved back and protected Butcher and the rest as they entered Youdu. Butcher, Tian Shu, and the rest had just reached Youdu when they saw two bloody dragons slashing down from the void. With a crack, Youdu was cut open!
The four of them were astonished. The two bloodthirsty dragons had actually cut across their heads, causing their scalps to turn numb and cold sweat to roll down their foreheads!
"Mu'er is still over there!"
Butcher was about to rush back when he saw that Gate of Heaven Influence had already been sliced into pieces by the two long bloody dragons, cutting off his way back.
"Heaven Knife, don't worry."
Heavenly King Tian Shu hurriedly hugged him to prevent him from barging in. "How cunning is Celestial Venerable Mu? He's also the alliance master of the Heaven Alliance and has the title of Celestial Venerable Fa. Heavenly Lady Qiang wouldn't kill him."
Butcher was still struggling when Luo Wushuang added, "Celestial Venerable Mu has a way to protect himself. He hasn't died in the celestial heavens for so many years, so he won't die now. There's something wrong with Heavenly King Tian Shu's identity. If he's caught by Heavenly Lady Qiang, he will definitely be sacrificed. Zhe Huali and I are traitors of the celestial heavens, so we can't be caught by Heavenly Lady Qiang."
Butcher stopped struggling and looked around. There was only darkness in Youdu, and only monsters were swimming in it.
This place couldn't be compared to other places. In any case, the other heavens still had messengers of death to receive the dead souls, but there wasn't even a messenger of death or a ghost ship here.
"How should we leave?" Zhe Huali was slightly worried.
Tian Shu patted his chest with force and said with a smile, "I'm the heavenly king of Mingdu, conferred by Earth Count! My relationship with Earth Count is very good, and we are practically brothers. Don't worry if you guys follow me, I'll bring you guys to see Earth Count and have a good life!"
Zhe Huali believed him and couldn't help cheering. He wanted to follow him.
Luo Wushuang immediately pulled him back and shook his head secretly. He said in a low voice, "That was in the past. Ever since he drank wine and chopped off Earth Count's horn with the Imperial Gate, Earth Count didn't like him anymore."
Butcher also nodded his head repeatedly and whispered, "I heard from Mu'er that this fellow had escaped all the way and finally managed to escape into the Great Ruins of the world of the living. However, he was grabbed by Earth Count and held in his hand. Because it was the world of the living, Earth Count didn't pinch him to death due to the rules of Youdu, but he pinched him for over twenty thousand years."
Zhe Huali's face turned ashen, and he asked in a low voice, "Are there any other paths to leave this place?"
"Unless we return to the ancestral court."
Tian Shu turned back and chuckled. "However, when we return to the ancestral court, Heavenly Lady Qiang will crush us to death or send us to the God Execution Stage to be beheaded. Don't worry, don't worry. My grudge with Earth Count has long been resolved by Celestial Venerable Mu. Now, Earth Count and I only have friendship, a steel-like friendship!"
Ten days later, Tian Shu, Butcher, Luo Wushuang, and Zhe Huali were locked in a cage. Tian Shu grabbed the iron window and looked at Elder Messenger of Death with resentment.
Elder Messenger of Death was expressionless as the paper boat carried the four huge cages and floated slowly towards Earth Count.
