Tales of Herding Gods

“30 billion years...”

Qin Mu shook his head. There would definitely be an error if the dragon qilin used this method to measure the growth rings of the Great Black Mountain, but the error wasn’t too big. However, the number of 30 billion years still gave Qin Mu a fright.

One had to know that the number of 30 billion years only referred to the age of the Great Black Mountain. Apart from the Great Black Mountain, this black tree had fifteen other ring-shaped mountains!

If those ring-shaped mountain ranges had similar growth rings, wouldn’t it mean that the growth rings of this black tree was an unimaginable astronomical number?

The entire black tree was incomparably huge, and it was many times thicker than the origin tree. Moreover, it was even older than the origin tree, and the age of the Earth Mother Yuan Jun was only a fraction of its age!

“The growth rings of the Earth Mother Yuan Jun are only a few billion years old, but this black tree has experienced 16 different big growth rings, and each big growth ring has tens of billions of small growth rings. What kind of years has this tree experienced? ‘it’s impossible for any tree to have lived for so long, but this tree has really lived for so long.’

Qin Mu’s expression was strange. The black tree had already died, and only its stump was left. It was a pity.

‘what’s the origin of this place recommended to me by the two ancient gods in Taiji mineral vein? However, this place can indeed be considered a treasure land that’s only second to the five mineral veins.’

He was satisfied. The two ancient gods in the Taiji mine had recommended this place to him, and it could be said that they had formed an extremely good relationship with him. It was very beneficial for him to gain a firm foothold in the ancestral court.

As long as the azure glazed heaven stronghold spread out twenty-eight heavens, this place would be easy to defend and hard to attack!

Furthermore, the Black Wood Mountains didn’t have anything strange about the ancient mine veins. It would definitely be easier to mine here.

Qin Mu flew in the sky and patrolled the mountains. The mines here weren’t gathered in the Black Wood Mountains, but at the foot of the outermost ring of Black Mountains.

There were many ores that were exposed there, and they looked extremely ancient. He had gathered a few, but he couldn’t tell what kind of ores they were, so he could only put them away first. He planned to bring them to the outside world to ask mute.

Qin Mu walked around once, and this place had also been eaten up by the void beasts. There was no vegetation, only some at the Great Black Mountain in the center.

If he wanted to inspect the entire black wood in a short period of time, he would need to spend more than ten days. As for the detailed inspection, it would take even longer.

Qin Mu stopped. The most important problem now was that this place was very conspicuous. The void beasts could attack at any moment, so he had to prepare for them as soon as possible.

‘the one controlling those void beasts is Qing Tianfei, also known as Supreme Emperor. Logically speaking, she should have been unable to sit still long ago and tried to mobilize the void mother beast to use it to explore the other heavenly venerates’territories.’

Qin Mu blinked and thought to himself, ‘but why hasn’t she made a move yet? Could it be...’

His hair suddenly stood on end, and the smile on his face froze. ‘heavenly venerate gong made a move on Qing Tianfei? If heavenly venerate gong could kill her, it would be fine, but if he could kill her, everything would be fine! If he couldn’t kill her, she would definitely be able to guess that I was the snitch!’

The stiff smile on Qin Mu’s face gradually twisted, and he immediately flew back to the Great Black Peak. His heart pounded wildly. ‘after she was beaten by heavenly venerate gong, she would definitely vent her anger on me!’

When he came to the Great Black Peak, he immediately mobilized the Azure Heaven Pillar and sent the void beast he had tamed out of the great black wood to block the twenty-eight heavens.

Qin Mu raised his head to look at the sky and waited quietly, but there was still no movement in the sky or the void.

He waited for half a day, but there was still no movement. He felt slightly at ease and took out the egg of supreme incipient origin to focus on studying the supreme incipient runes.

He had already studied the first supreme incipient rune, so it could be said that he had entered the door. As long as he entered the door, it would be much easier for him to study the later supreme incipient runes.

After more than ten days passed peacefully, the Void Beasts still didn’t besiege this place. Qin Mu also felt at ease, ‘The longer I delay, the better. As long as the other heavenly venerates want to leave this place, they will have to come and find me. When that time comes, even if Qing Tianfei wants to kill me, it’ll be impossible. I’ll be safe.’

He couldn’t help muttering, ‘it’s really hard to earn ten percent of the divine stones from heavenly venerate gong...’

At that moment, Qing Tianfei’s clothes were disheveled and her body was covered in wounds. She had escaped from the Nuxin clan’s mineral vein in a sorry state. Her face was also bruised, and it was obvious that she had been beaten up badly. There was still heavenly venerate gong chasing after her from behind.

Qi Tianfei was furious, “You are courting death!”She said furiously. “Only absolute beginning and heavenly venerate mu know my identity. Absolute beginning is in a state of balance with me. If he turns me in, I can also turn him in. Therefore, the one who will betray my identity will definitely not be him. “Then naturally, it can only be that Qin Mu!”

“You are really courting death! You have provoked my tiger whiskers time and time again!”

Her divine consciousness burst forth, and the void mother beast that was residing in the nineteenth void instantly seemed to have received an order. It stood up with a bang and shook its incomparably huge body before letting out an angry roar.

At that moment, all the heavenly venerates in the ancestral court felt the tremors coming from the depths of the void. They all walked out of their palaces and raised their heads to look up.

A huge eye that was hundreds of miles long suddenly appeared in the sky. It rolled down, and a huge eyeball appeared.

Then, popping sounds came from the sky. One after another, huge eyeballs appeared in the sky. They were extremely evil, like mushrooms after a rain. Soon, they filled the sky!

In addition, on the ground, in rivers, lakes, and seas, countless eyeballs also appeared!

The celestial venerables sneered and did not care about this.

Although the void Beast was strong, it was still much weaker than celestial venerables like them. They were not afraid of the void mother at all.

They also had the determination to get rid of the void mother. It was just that the void mother was hidden in the 19th void space. Their divine sense was not strong enough, unlike the creator who specialized in cultivating divine sense.

They could not bring their bodies through the void space. If their primordial spirits entered the 19th void space, it would be too dangerous.

However, as long as the void mother appeared, they could easily get rid of the void mother.

In the sky, on the ground, in rivers, lakes, and seas, countless void beasts appeared. The Void Beasts in the sky flapped their wings and flew in the sky, while on the ground, the Void Beasts ran wildly on their six legs!

Apart from that, there were also gigantic void beasts shuttling through the void. Almost all the Void Beasts moved out at that moment, rushing in the same direction!

And that was the north of the ancestral court!

Even those void beasts that were lying on the crack in the sky, intending to tear the crack even wider, let go of their sharp claws and fell down from the crack.

As they fell, their bodies twisted, and their six limbs spread out their flesh membranes and streaked across the sky.

“The north should be...”

In the Great Swamp, Heavenly Master Hong raised his head and revealed a surprised expression, “The Great Black Mountain!”! That place was extremely desolate. It was the most sinister and sinister place in the ancestral court. Even the creators from the immemorial era did not go there and avoided it! “These void beasts are running there. Could it be that someone ran there?”

“None of the tenth heavenly venerates are stupid. They can all see how terrifying the Great Black Mountain is, so they would not choose the Great Black Mountain...”

His expression changed slightly as he stomped his feet and said, “Oh no! I know who’s going to the Great Black Mountain! Only that kid is so bold!”
