Tales Of Herding Gods | Chapter 1587 - Going The Opposite Way

"This isn't Su Muzhe's fault. Even though Su Muzhe is the grand chancellor of Dao Academy, he always feels that I'm his senior when he's with me. I only live in legends, so he naturally feels a little uneasy when he sees the people of legends."

Celestial Venerable Ling said, "Thus, he always wanted to talk to me, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only pour all of your matters to me. Do you still remember how Si Youyou took you to the fair and took a fancy to a piece of cloth? She didn't bring any money with her, so she pawned you on the cloth manor. She forgot to redeem you back. It was Blind who went to redeem you."

"Village Chief's mouth… and Granny's!"

Veins popped up on Qin Mu's forehead as he examined the void. He controlled the golden ship to sail deeper into the void, and he gave a hearty laugh. "Just now, Bai Qu'er asked me to ask you, what should we do about the survivors of High Emperor? She hid the survivors of High Emperor, but her abilities are low, so she can't protect the survivors of High Emperor during the calamity."

"The people of Founding Emperor Era are also the survivors of High Emperor. The people of Eternal Peace Era are also survivors of High Emperor. In my heart, no matter who it is, there's no difference."

Celestial Venerable Ling said, "Let these people merge into Eternal Peace, that will save me three more places to run."

She didn't continue to ask Qin Mu about matters of the heart. Compared to troublesome matters of the heart, she liked to study more.

She was once again immersed in the creation of the Red Ribbon Imprint. The Red Ribbon Imprint involved too much knowledge, and even for a person like her, it would take tens of thousands of years to comprehend it. This showed how difficult it was to create the Red Ribbon Imprint.

She was originally an extremely intelligent person. Back then, Celestial Venerable Yu had said enviously that Celestial Venerable Ling's aptitude, comprehension, and wisdom were above his. Although Celestial Venerable Yu was humble and envious, Celestial Venerable Ling's aptitude, comprehension, and wisdom were indeed extremely high.

Qin Mu also calmed down to comprehend the Dao markings. When he encountered something he didn't understand, he asked.

Celestial Venerable Ling was patient at first, but she became impatient and felt that his question was too simple. "I have all of them in my comprehension, go and comprehend them yourself!"

Qin Mu blushed and was too ashamed to show his face. He could only comprehend it himself obediently.

Finally, the golden ship broke through the 35th void and sailed into the ultimate void. The cold wind howled and dissolved all matter. However, there was nothing the golden ship could do.

Celestial Venerable Ling guided him on the path to Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven. Qin Mu controlled the golden ship to travel in the Ultimate Void. The Ultimate Void was countless times larger than the entire universe.

As the universe grew, the universe would also become bigger and wider. The 36 voids would gradually merge with the universe, and the spirit energy between heaven and earth would become thinner. The distance between galaxies would also become wider.

"With my current power, can I imprint the Ultimate Void and make my power undying?"

Qin Mu's eyes sparkled, and he immediately took out Calamity Sword. He stood at the bow of the ship and tried to execute his divine art, trying to imprint his divine art into the ultimate void.

He executed the thirty heavens of the divine art, starting from the first form of Calamity Sword, Raising Calamity, to the thirty-first form, Silent Reincarnation.

However, the thirty-one great divine arts were imprinted in the Ultimate Void and quickly dispersed like smoke, leaving no traces behind.

Qin Mu frowned. Suddenly, Celestial Venerable Ling's voice came from behind him. "Good divine art."

Qin Mu looked back, and Celestial Venerable Ling's gaze landed on the place where he had imprinted the divine art. She praised again, "Good divine art."

Qin Mu said with a smile, "This is the Dao Realm that Founding Emperor founded. I have already cultivated to the 31st heaven, and when I cultivate to the 36th heaven, I will be able to imprint the ultimate void. Ling, you probably don't know much about the Dao Realm, so let me explain it to you. The Dao Realm was created by Founding Emperor, and it was originally treated as heresy. Now, it has become manifestation, and the Dao Realm is divided into 36 heavens…"

Celestial Venerable Ling waved her hand and shook her head. "The words of the Dao Realm, the words of one family. I have already consulted Founding Emperor personally in the Enlightenment Courtyard, but it's nothing much."

Qin Mu stared with his eyes wide open and stuttered, "You, you…"

Celestial Venerable Ling said, "Celestial Venerable Mu, with your aptitude, you should have expected it long ago. The Dao Realm is merely a frame for the vulgar people to walk in. When they reach the extreme, they can achieve the Dao. However, this is used to restrict the ordinary people."

Qin Mu held a breath in his chest and almost couldn't catch his breath.

Celestial Venerable Ling said, "I saw that you have a move called Primordial Finger which uses primordial runes. Use it against the Ultimate Void."

Qin Mu followed his words and pointed his finger.

During this period of time, he had comprehended the numerous transformations of the Primordial Finger. The power of this finger was astonishing, and a beam of purple light shot out from the tip of his finger. It pierced through the Ultimate Void and left a finger mark in this Ultimate Void.

The finger marks didn't disperse for a long time. In the finger marks, the thousands of transformations of Primordial Finger were shifting and changing endlessly. The finger marks wouldn't be erased by the Ultimate Void!

Qin Mu was stunned. He carefully examined this finger trace and had some comprehension in his heart, but he didn't know what logic he had comprehended.

Celestial Venerable Ling asked, "Which heaven is this divine art of yours?"

Qin Mu shook his head and said, "This isn't my divine art, it's a finger divine art I comprehended from the Dao markings of Miluo Palace. It's the divine art of Miluo Palace's master…"

"According to your logic, your divine art of the 31st heaven of the Dao Realm is your divine art again? It's the divine art of all kinds of Great Dao. Primordial Finger divine art is your divine art, and it's also the divine art of Miluo Palace's master."

Celestial Venerable Xu asked, "What level of heaven do you think your Divine Finger is?"

Qin Mu was at a loss and couldn't follow her train of thought.

"This divine art doesn't have the first heaven."

Celestial Venerable Ling said, "The master of Miluo Palace has already surpassed the first heaven of the Dao Realm. He has understood the essence of the Dao, and the Dao Realm can't trap him anymore. If you cultivate along the Dao Realm, you will still be bound by the rules. You will only understand why the Primordial Finger can still be so powerful if you jump out."

Qin Mu blinked, his eyes filled with confusion.

Celestial Venerable Ling looked at him and frowned. She controlled her temper and said, "Dao nature doesn't follow the waves, Dao nature isn't cold. In this boundless world, one should return to one's self. Do you understand now?"

"I…"

The corners of Qin Mu's eyes twitched, and he hesitated. "I don't think I understand…"

At the Jade Pool Meeting a million years ago, he could impart the path of creation to Celestial Venerable Ling, but today, he didn't understand the realm that Celestial Venerable Ling was talking about.

Celestial Venerable Ling seemed to have embarked on a cultivation path that was different from the system of divine treasures and celestial palaces, the system of Dao Realm, and even the Ancestral Court's Five Great Cultivation System that Lan Yutian was researching!

This path of cultivation made even an existence like Qin Mu confused.

"You are as dumb as Celestial Venerable Yun." Celestial Venerable Ling shook her head and ignored him.

Qin Mu stood at the bow of the ship in a daze and stared at the endless void with his eyes wide open. The cold wind blew, and it was as if a piece of the Dao heart had been blown off.

"How stupid." Celestial Venerable Ling's voice seemed to come from the wind.

Qin Mu was disappointed. He sat down and thought hard. Celestial Venerable Ling was right. The Primordial Finger wasn't a divine art of the Dao Realm, but its power was extraordinarily strong.

It was the same for the Red Ribbon Imprint Technique. It could even suppress those who achieved the Dao.

If it wasn't the Dao Realm and had such astonishing power, where did the power come from?

"Return to the self, return to the self…"

He repeated the meaning of this sentence, and the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

Celestial Venerable Ling's cultivation and magic power were definitely mediocre. Her vital qi was even inferior to Qin Mu's, and she didn't have any achievements in the Dao Realm. However, she could kill a terrifying existence like the Grand Emperor with a single finger.

Where did her power come from?

She didn't borrow power from the celestial heavens, didn't borrow power from the ancient gods, didn't borrow power from heaven and earth, and didn't cultivate the Dao Realm. Why was her divine art so powerful?

"She has already surpassed this era by too much. Maybe she can chat with the master of Miluo Palace."

When the golden ship arrived at Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven, Celestial Venerable Yun saw it and hurriedly welcomed it. Qin Mu got off the ship and looked back. Celestial Venerable Ling was still sitting on the ship.

Qin Mu was about to call out to her when Celestial Venerable Yun hurriedly stopped him. He shook his head and said, "There's no need to alarm her. Why is Celestial Venerable Mu a little dispirited?"

He examined Qin Mu and revealed a look of astonishment. When Qin Mu had come here to save him and was captured by Celestial Venerable Hao, he didn't panic at all. Instead, he was delighted.

Celestial Venerable Yun was still optimistic about that kind of danger, but now, he had become dispirited and lacked confidence. He was truly astonished.

Qin Mu sighed. "I was attacked by Celestial Venerable Ling on the way."

Celestial Venerable Yun understood and smiled. "It's a small matter. I'm used to it. You know how to do it too."

Qin Mu gave a grunt and took out his corporeal body from the eye in the heart of his brows. "Other than returning your corporeal body, the other thing I came here for is…"

"About Earth Count?"

Celestial Venerable Yun examined his corporeal body. Even though this corporeal body was the corporeal body of a strong practitioner on Emperor's Throne, the activity of his corporeal body wasn't as good as before. He needed to nurse his body back to health after reviving. He said, "I'm bored out of my mind here, so I'm peeking around. I know about Earth Count."

Qin Mu asked, "Brother Yun, if it was you, would you save Earth Count?"

"Yes!"

Celestial Venerable Yun entered his corporeal body and quickly grasped all aspects of his body. He said without thinking, "Earth Count doesn't have much of a relationship with me, but Earth Count's life and death are related to the ownership of Youdu! The ownership of Youdu is related to the success of Eternal Peace's reform and the survival of the human race! Therefore, no matter what, I will do my best and even risk my life to save Earth Count. No matter what, I can't let Youdu fall into the hands of the celestial heavens!"

Qin Mu let out a long sigh of relief and revealed a smile. "With Dao friend's words, I can settle one of my worries."

Celestial Venerable Yun stretched his body and circulated his qi and blood. He also revealed a smile. "I'm very happy to be able to help you."

Qin Mu walked around him and imprinted one creation divine art after another on his body, helping him clear his blood and refine away the impurities in his divine treasures. He muttered to himself, "Brother Yun had the same idea as me, but he failed during the Dragon Han Era, so it might not be a good idea to save Earth Count with all your might."

Celestial Venerable Yun's face darkened.

Qin Mu continued to circle around him. As he executed his divine art to strengthen his qi and blood, he pondered and said, "Celestial Venerable Hao is your old rival, your old rival. His research on you must be very thorough. He knows your character, your layout, and your future actions like the back of his hand. That's why you lost during the Dragon Han Era."

Celestial Venerable Yun's face turned even darker, but soon, the qi and blood that Qin Mu had circulated came to his head, making his complexion look much better. His face was glowing red, and he looked radiant.

"The victors often have the mentality of replicating their own success, so Celestial Venerable Hao will use the method to deal with you to deal with me."

Qin Mu tapped the heart of his brows and activated his brain. He smiled and said, "That's why I'm prepared to do the opposite!"

Celestial Venerable Yun felt his brain reviving, and all kinds of thoughts and consciousness circulated. He asked in astonishment, "How do you plan to do the opposite?"

"I'm prepared to kill Earth Count!"

Qin Mu stretched out his hand and grabbed Celestial Venerable Yun's Divine Bridge Divine Treasure, slicing his divine bridge in half. He laughed and said, "Didn't Celestial Venerable Hao want to kill Earth Count? In that case, I shall be one step ahead of him and get rid of Earth Count!"

Celestial Venerable Yun was flabbergasted.

Kill Earth Count before Celestial Venerable Hao?

Wait a minute, how did Celestial Venerable Mu sever his Divine Bridge Divine Treasure?

This guy had never asked him!

He was a Celestial Venerable that had opened up the Divine Bridge Divine Treasure. Now that the divine bridge was broken, all the realms of the celestial palace were gone!

How could this corporeal body withstand his magic power?

If the magic power of Celestial Palace Realm pressed down on him, his corporeal body would probably crumble in an instant and turn into chaos!

"Wait! Celestial Venerable Mu, listen to me…"

Qin Mu gently flicked Calamity Sword and stabbed it into his body. Not only did it sever his Divine Bridge Divine Treasure, it also severed his Life and Death, Celestial Being, Six Directions, Five Elements, and other divine treasures!
