Tales Of Herding Gods | Chapter 1533 - The Path To Achieving Dao

Granny Si, Mute, and the rest stood on the ship and looked at each other in dismay. There were still thousands of primordial behemoths on the ship, and they were also looking at each other in dismay.

"Where did Mu'er get this strange ship from?"

Everyone looked around, and only then did they realize that this golden ship was much larger than what they had seen. Standing outside the ship and looking at it from the outside, it was a completely different world.

There were golden halls on the ship that were imprinted with strange runes that flowed continuously.

Those primordial behemoths only dared to stand on the deck and didn't dare to walk around recklessly. Everyone became much more daring and looked around to find a way to leave this ship.

"What's inside these golden halls?"

Blind examined the unbelievably huge golden palace gate in detail and said, "This gate isn't locked, let me try to open it."

After a moment, the door of the hall opened, and a rotten aura poured out.

Everyone covered their mouths and noses, waiting for the air of corruption to dissipate before carefully entering the hall.

What entered their eyes was a vast and glorious world. This world had the sun, moon, and stars. There were countless cities, and in those cities, white skeletons were bustling about.

Hundreds of millions of white skeletons walked through the city. In the city, there were women feeding their children, businessmen doing business, white skeletons haggling with the shop owners, and many of them working outside the city.

Everyone looked at this scene in a daze.

"These white bones are?"

Just as Hua Xuanxiu said that, the entire world collapsed. Countless white bones turned into chaos qi in an instant, and their bodies crumbled. The city collapsed, and the sun, moon, and stars collapsed inward!

Boom!

A tremor came from the golden hall, and there was only chaos qi left in the hall.

Everyone looked at this scene in a daze, speechless.

Right at this moment, a figure walked out from somewhere, walking in the vast chaotic qi that reached his knees.

It was a phantom, like the final radiance of history, imprinting his figure here.

He walked in the destroyed world and looked around in a daze. He could no longer find his family, his old friends, and the living beings he was protecting.

He opened his mouth like an injured old wolf roaring in the chaos. He called out, but no one answered him.

Granny Si, Blind, and the rest looked at that figure and felt an indescribable sorrow in their hearts. They couldn't help but shed silent tears.

That figure cast a spell in the primal chaos, executing a strange divine art. It was as if the heaven and earth were being split apart and the dry earth was being replicated. It was also like tracing back time, allowing the life that had passed away to be reborn.

His divine art astonished everyone. It was extremely exquisite, and the qi of primal chaos was gradually changing. Stars gradually appeared, and the sun rose while the moon slanted in the west.

Cities rose from the ground, and white skeletons stood up from the chaos.

What kind of divine art was this?

It allowed everyone to see the boundless marvel of the Dao, the divine art to revive the dead, and the wisdom condensed from the final form of a civilization in the universe.

However, everything collapsed once again and was destroyed.

After a long time, Blind left the hall with everyone and closed the door.

"Who is that person?"

Granny Si muttered, "When he cries, it gives people a feeling that their hearts are about to be ripped apart. It's like, it's like…"

"It's like Mu'er during the Eternal Peace Calamity, lonely and helpless."

Blind said with a calm expression, "Back then, after Cripple carried Mu'er out of the Eternal Peace Calamity, he told me about this. When he saved Mu'er, Cripple ran the fastest. Every time he saved Mu'er, it was also him…"

Everyone's hearts were heavy.

During the Eternal Peace Calamity, all the pressure was concentrated on Qin Mu alone. No matter how he struggled or resisted, he couldn't save Eternal Peace. He was probably like that apparition in the primal chaos, suffering, loneliness, and helplessness.

They left the golden hall and walked towards the next one.

At the border of Hundred Thousand Holy Mountain, Qin Mu found Xu Shenghua and Lan Yutian. The two of them were repairing the black mountain that had split open.

Qin Mu told them about his encounters in the Jade Capital of the ancestral court, about the seventy-two throne halls, the Numinous Sky Trap, and the Emperor's Throne Trap.

He didn't want these two to be distracted, so he didn't say much about Tai Yi.

The two of them listened attentively.

Xu Shenghua thought about it and said, "The seventy-two throne halls were divided by the seven Celestial Venerables, which means that the seven Celestial Venerables now control the greatest resources. They control many throne halls, and other than them, no one else can rely on the celestial palace system to achieve the path."

Lan Yutian shook his head and said, "Not long ago, Jiang Baigui and Emperor Yanfeng came here. Jiang Baigui showed me his seventy-two throne halls and thirty-six celestial palaces, which gave me a deep feeling. Even without the seventy-two throne halls of Jade Capital City, I can still achieve the Dao. It's not only the Dao of the ancestral court Jade Capital."

"At present, there are four paths to attaining the Dao. One is the path of Jiang Baigui, achieving the Dao after the beginning. The other path is the path of Lan Yutian, you and Cult Master Qin, achieving the Five Great Daos. The other path is the path of Celestial Venerable Qin's Founding Emperor, achieving the Dao at the Dao Realm. The other path is the traditional path of the celestial palace achieving the Dao, using strength to achieve the Dao and borrowing strength from the Jade Capital City."

Xu Shenghua pondered over it and said, "Among these paths, the simplest one is to use strength to achieve the path and borrow the power of Jade Capital City. The one with the deepest cultivation is to achieve the path in the Dao Realm. The hardest one is to achieve the path in the Postcelestial Realm. The most profound one is the Five Great Daos. I have been repairing the black mountain for the past few years and have been thinking about my path of attaining the path. I have also gained something in the past few years. I want to take a path that is different from all of you, the fifth path."

Qin Mu asked, "What did Brother Xu gain?"

Xu Shenghua said, "I want to walk the path of primordial spirit achieving the Dao. I'm thinking that the World Tree is like the primordial spirit of this universe, and the universe is equivalent to the body of the World Tree. Maybe when the primordial spirit achieves the path, it will be indestructible. It's just that I'm not too clear about it yet."

Qin Mu's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Brother Xu is indeed full of ideas, you might succeed."

"I don't want to take this path anymore."

Xu Shenghua said seriously, "Celestial Venerable Hao and Celestial Venerable Xiao colluded with the prehistoric successors. After they achieved the Dao through force, the pressure on you will definitely be huge. If I also walk the path of using force to achieve the Dao, I will be able to have great power in a short period of time. When I fight Celestial Venerable Hao and Celestial Venerable Xiao, I can contribute…"

"What pressure do I have?"

Qin Mu laughed and said, "Now that the ten Celestial Venerables have become the seven Celestial Venerables, a few more Celestial Venerables will die in the battle between Celestial Venerable Hao and Celestial Venerable Xiao! As long as I save Celestial Venerable Ling, we will definitely win this battle! You don't have to worry about me. Walk your path well. When you achieve the Dao in the future, I will still bite you once!"

Xu Shenghua also couldn't help revealing a smile. "Cult Master Qin, no matter how many worries I have when I'm with you, they will vanish without a trace."

Qin Mu said with a smile, "However, I will still give you full pressure. Lan Yutian, Xu Shenghua, didn't you say that even if the five Ancient Gods are born, their Dao will always be there? I need you guys to comprehend the Great Dao of the five Ancient Gods as well!"

He took out Wei Suifeng's two Dry Kun Mirrors and handed them to the two of them. "There's a Primordial Vital Qi rune here that contains the Five Great Transformation Technique. I need you to comprehend it."

He thought about it and said, "I also need you guys to sort out the five paths of attaining the Dao. Can you do it?"

Xu Shenghua and Lan Yutian instantly felt the pressure. Every mission Qin Mu gave them required them to use their full strength, and they might not be able to complete it, let alone three at once.

"We can try!" Lan Yutian gritted his teeth.

"That's good!"

Qin Mu stood up and said solemnly, "The Jade Capital City was left behind by the master of Miluo Palace, who hoped that the living beings of the future universe could inherit the paths, skills, divine arts, and research results of the past sixteen universes. No matter if it's Celestial Venerable Hao or Celestial Venerable Xiao, no one can control the Jade Capital of the ancestral court. Based on my understanding of Celestial Venerable Hao and Celestial Venerable Xiao, after they leave the Jade Capital City, they will most likely seal the Jade Capital of the ancestral court again, making it impossible for others to surpass them!"

Lan Yutian and Xu Shenghua nodded. The seven Celestial Venerables of the celestial heavens were all such people. They wouldn't give hope to those who came later.

"Therefore, as long as we see the light of the Jade Capital City disappear, we will know that Celestial Venerable Xiao and Celestial Venerable Hao have left the Jade Capital City. After Celestial Venerable Xiao leaves the Jade Capital City, he will most likely come here to visit Tai Yi. Other than him, the Taiji Ancient Gods will also come with him."

Qin Mu felt a headache coming on, and he said, "Even Tai Su is coming. If Tai Su is coming, Celestial Venerable Hao will definitely come as well. Now, Tai Yi is missing…"

Lan Yutian and Xu Shenghua looked at each other and probed, "What do you mean?"

"I'll pretend to be Tai Yi!"

Qin Mu gritted his teeth and said, "As long as they can't see it, there's nothing to worry about. We can send them away. If they do…"

The corners of Lan Yutian's eyes twitched, and he said, "What if they see through it?"

"If Eternal Peace is finished, we are all finished."

Qin Mu consoled the two of them and said, "Don't worry, even though the ancient god of taiji is an expert in forging, I'm not too shabby myself. I won't reveal anything."

When the two heard him say that, they couldn't help but look worried.

Pretending to be Tai Yi and hiding from Celestial Venerable Xiao, Taiji Ancient Gods, and Goddess Tai Su was simply impossible!

If Qin Mu was exposed, the seven Celestial Venerables would no longer have any qualms about the black mountains. A single Celestial Venerable would probably be able to flatten this place!

If Celestial Venerable Xiao and the rest couldn't see through Qin Mu, Eternal Peace and the black mountain would be safe.

If it was too easy to not get rid of, Celestial Venerable Xiao and the rest wouldn't dare to touch the black mountain and Eternal Peace.

Qin Mu said with a smile, "I need to prepare, do your best to cultivate." After saying that, he hurriedly left.

The two of them looked at each other worriedly.

After more than ten days, the brilliant light from the Jade Capital City of the ancestral court gradually dimmed. This light could have lit up the sky of the ancestral court, but it was becoming dimmer by the day.

After a few days, the light of the Jade Capital City in the ancestral court had completely vanished.

Qin Mu looked in the direction of the Jade Capital City, and his heart sank. The seventh Celestial Venerable had indeed sealed the Ancestral Court Jade Capital City as he had expected.

"In another six days, they will come here, and it will be time for Tai Yi to pay them a visit. Whether we can scare them and protect the Black Mountains and Eternal Peace will depend on this!"

Six days later, Celestial Venerable Xiao and the two ancient gods of taiji, Celestial Venerable Hao, Tai Su, and the other five Celestial Venerables came to the black mountain together. They said to Jiang Yunjian, who had come out to welcome them, "Tai Chu, Tai Su, and Taiji have come to visit Dao Brother Tai Yi. May I trouble you to report this?"

Jiang Yunjian glanced at the Celestial Venerables and said, "Tai Yi already knows that you are coming to visit, so he asked me to wait here. Please."
