Tales of Herding Gods

Even though Qin Mu heard his words, he couldn’t condense his divine consciousness, let alone reassemble his dao heart.

Just like what Tai Shi had said, this nine hell stage wasn’t a place that he could come to today. This natural heavenly prison should have been on the realm after God execution stage.

However, in the early years of Dragon Han, when the gods built the heavenly court, the Heavenly Court didn’t refine the heavenly prison according to Nine Hell Stage.

The Heaven Prison of the heaven was different from nine prison stage. It didn’t contain the Great Dao of nine prison stage, so no one knew anything about this realm.

For a million years, no one had done any research on nine prison stage.

Qin Mu’s current realm had yet to reach Jade Lake realm, so when faced with the test of nine prison stage, he didn’t have anyone’s experience to draw on.

He could only fight against nine prison platform alone. When his dao heart was sealed, he was like a baby floating in a basket on surging river.

His surroundings were all dark, and only the jade pendant on his chest was still emitting a faint light.

The darkness around surging river was filled with ghosts and devil gods. The Devils and monsters were sprinting on the surface of the river, appearing and disappearing mysteriously as they peered at him.

“The you in the past didn’t have a DAO Heart at all! Dao heart was cultivated step by step by yourself!”

Tai Shi’s voice came from within the egg as though it was incomparably far away. “You need to use your own will to overcome it and cultivate your dao heart again! You can survive...”

His voice became farther and farther away, becoming fainter and fainter until it could no longer be heard.

The intense pain surrounded Qin Mu, and fear drowned him.

He was like a baby floating alone on surging river, and all he could see was darkness.

What if, what if Granny Si didn’t hear his cries in the basket, walk into the darkness, or lift him up from the basket?

Would he still be the current him?

Would he still be heavenly venerate mu?

Heaven Prison’s nine prison platforms had crushed his dao heart and made it return to its original state, crushing his fighting spirit and turning him into a weak baby.

Darkness would eventually invade and devour him completely.

Qin Mu’s eyes gradually dimmed, and in the end, everything was devoured by darkness.

The egg of supreme beginning that had been trying its best to call out to Qin Mu also calmed down.

It was over. Qin Mu’s Dao Heart had been locked, and his fighting spirit had been completely destroyed. It was impossible for him to awaken his dao heart and become heavenly venerate mu again.

The nine prison platforms were completely silent.

There were actually no cries of the billions of commoners that Qin Mu had heard, nor were there any seals on the Great Dao, divine consciousness, vital qi, and primordial spirit.

Ever since he had stepped into this place, what had been locked was his dao heart.

Locking the Great Dao, his corporeal body, vital qi, and divine consciousness were all just appearances.

It was precisely because his dao heart felt that it had been locked that he had seen his corporeal body, vital qi, primordial spirit, Great Dao, and divine consciousness all locked up.

Village chief’s overlord body legend made people think that they could do anything!

And nine prison stage locking up dao heart made people think that they couldn’t do anything.

Qin Mu lay in the middle of nine prison stage. He hadn’t moved for a long time, and at most, he would twitch and twist from time to time.

‘in this world, even the existence with the strongest dao heart is unable to resist nine prison stage. I should be trapped in his body until the day he dies.’

Tai Shi thought to himself, ‘maybe I can only escape when his corpse rots. Heavenly venerate mu, are you really unable to break through prison lock Dao Heart?’

..

Qin Mu curled up his body weakly. His surroundings were completely dark and there was no light.

“Listen, there’s the sound of a child crying outside!”

“I think Mu'er should be a different kind of constitution, an overlord body that combines the length of the four great constitutions!”

“As long as you have faith, a mortal body is an overlord body!”

“It’s hard to break a god in a broken temple, and it’s even harder to break a god in your heart!”

“The path of a saint is no different from the daily use of the people. Anyone who is different is a heresy!”

“Doing things in a straightforward manner and being pure in nature is the path.”

“The reason why Imperial preceptor and I are pushing for change is to change the situation where the sects control the lifeblood of the people and the country. Not only do I want to change, but I also want a revolution. I want to change the lives of these sects and change my own life!”

“Founding emperor’s reform should follow the heavens and follow the people.”

“What’s the use of this sword? What’s the use? This sword can’t be polished anymore!”

“There is no carefree village in this world!”

“If we decay in the future, there will be descendants who will overthrow us. There’s no need to think so much.”

“Take care! I’ll have to rely on fellow Daoist for the future!”

“Cult master, you’re right.”

..

After a long time, Qin Mu opened his eyes. His Dao Heart was still locked, and he still looked like a mortal. However, hope was ignited in him.

“Tai Yi is right. I didn’t have a dao heart in the past, and it was honed. In the past, I wasn’t a divine arts practitioner, much less a god. I cultivated it.”

“In the past, I wasn’t Cult Master Qin, Human Emperor Qin, or heavenly venerate mu. I fought for it step by step!”

“In the past, I didn’t have my own soul or corporeal body, but I had my own consciousness!”

“In the past, I didn’t have my own dao friends, but I had many of my own friends!”

“In the past, I was an orphan with no relatives, but I had disabled elderly village and eternal peace!”

“In the past, I didn’t have my own path! But now --”

He gritted his teeth and resisted the bone-piercing pain. He stood up shakily and tried his best to control his divine consciousness to keep his consciousness clear.

“But now, I have my own path and path!”

The pain distorted his consciousness, but he still desperately urged his divine sense to forcefully urge the overlord body three elixir technique.

As he walked, it was as if he had returned to the disabled elderly village. He had returned to the bitter days of running and training.

But this time, his footsteps were extremely empty. His body was distorted and swaying as he walked with great difficulty at the lowest level of the heaven prison nine prison stage.

His soul consciousness moved the Yuan Qi that had already become rigid, making it follow his soul consciousness. He used all his strength to activate his technique. He felt that wherever his soul consciousness and Yuan Qi passed by, it was as painful as scraping his bones.

He was trembling. Every step he took was extremely painful.

The absolute beginning egg still didn’t speak. He was observing this scene. He was observing how a lowly creature that had fallen into a desperate situation walked out of the desperate situation. He was also observing what supported him to continue walking.

He had always been biased against postnatal life forms, and he didn’t have a good impression of ancient gods either. It was the creator of the postnatal life forms who had dug him out of the mine of primordial beginning, and it was the ancient god, heavenly emperor primordial beginning, who had imprisoned him.

Yet now, he could see the unimaginable vitality of the life forms in this world from Qin Mu’s body!

Qin Mu’s incomparably tenacious and even stubborn will made him admire him.

In a space that was twenty feet square, he would need to spend an hour to walk for a week.

The dragon qilin and long Xiao stood at an extremely high place. When they looked down, they could only see a square inch of land where a tiny figure was moving slowly.

“Can cult master walk out from inside?”The Dragon Qilin couldn’t help being a little worried as he looked at long Xiao.

There were huge beasts that had picked up spirit herbs from outside. Their bodies were already twisted from the pain even before they arrived here, making it difficult for them to walk forward.

The Dragon Qilin hurriedly went forward to receive the spirit herbs. His Dao heart was much more profound than these huge beasts.

“If heavenly venerate mu really walks out from the nine prisons platform, do I really have to join hands with him?”Long Xiao looked at the square inch and said in a low voice.

The dragon qilin was slightly startled and couldn’t help but ask with joy, “Cult master can walk out of there?”

Long Xiao stared at the ninth stage, he said softly, “His speed is gradually increasing. I’ve never seen anyone walk through the ninth stage of the nine prison stage, and I’ve never seen anyone who can reunite their dao heart even when their dao heart is locked. Yet, he has done it.”

—— I wish my book friend a lonely and happy birthday!
