Tales of Herding Gods

Under the world tree, palpitations came in waves, rapid and fierce. Qin Mu sensed them from afar, and his heart gradually sank.

He could sense which divine art was Xu Shenghua’s divine art and which was the divine art of the spirit official.

The two clones of the spirit official used a strange combined attack to surround and kill Xu Shenghua. The two ancient gods sometimes merged together and sometimes separated. Furthermore, the paths that the two ancient gods grasped were different, but each of their paths.., they were all Great Dao that were compatible with dao flowers and Dao fruits.

Hall master spirit official had indeed put in a lot of effort in order to break the Great Black Mountain!

He had achieved dao four times in total, and he had produced three dao fruits and a dao flower. One of them had been destroyed by Qin Mu, and another had been used to block Qin Mu, but it had also been destroyed. The remaining Dao fruit and a dao flower, the clones he had chosen were compatible with the Great Dao contained in the Dao fruit and dao flower, so they could unleash the greatest power of the Dao fruit and Dao Flower!

The abilities of his two clones were probably infinitely close to that of Dao practitioners!

“Xu Shenghua, you mustn’t die...”

Qin Mu tried his best to speed up, but his footsteps became heavier and heavier. In the battle just now, his magic power had already been exhausted, and his corporeal body had long reached its limits. His legs seemed to be his.., his body seemed to be carrying all the worlds on his back as he walked with difficulty.

Running continuously across battlefields in the shortest amount of time and killing Hall Master Spirit Officer’s Ancient God clone at the fastest speed with the smallest price was an unimaginable challenge for him.

He had already been severely overdrawn in the battle in the Hall of Spirit officers just now, and his vital qi had been exhausted. Spirit officer clone could even cause injuries to his corporeal body.

The divine art ripples from the great black mountain were still coming over, and they became even more urgent. It was clear that the battle between Xu Shenghua and Spirit Officer’s two clones had already reached the most critical period.

Qin Mu’s figure was still as fast as lightning, but his body was staggering, and his speed was much slower than before.

At that moment, he sensed something strange in the divine art ripples.

Qin Mu raised his head and looked at the Great Black Mountain in front of him. There, another world tree was slowly rising. It was Xu Shenghua’s world tree.

Back then, when the World Tree had resurrected, Xu Shenghua and Lan Yutian had sat under the tree and tried to analyze the Great Dao contained in the world tree, treating it as a realm.

Qin Mu had also been comprehending at the side, but he hadn’t been able to comprehend anything. Thus, he had thought of a shortcut and borrowed a divine axe from Tai Yi to chop the world tree and transplant it into his divine treasures.

Later, when the new tree grew, Lan Yutian and Xu Shenghua still sat under the tree and diligently tried to deconstruct the world tree.

From the looks of it now, Xu Shenghua had already made some achievements in the past few years.

“Thirty-third Heavenly Dao realm...”

Qin Mu’s footsteps didn’t stop, and the vertical eye between his brows opened. Xu Shenghua’s Dao realm was connected to his world tree, which made him slightly at ease.

Xu Shenghua could already be considered half a dao practitioner. He and Lan Yutian had created a new cultivation system for the future, and this cultivation system was almost complete!

He and Lan Yutian had chosen a shortcut. The traditional cultivation system, whether it was the Heavenly Palace’s Heavenly Court System or the Dao realm system, was the accumulation of quantitative changes.

Even if one cultivated the perfect heavenly court, they still needed to brand the ultimate void to achieve a qualitative change. Even if one cultivated the 36th sky of the Dao realm, they still needed to go to the ultimate void to brand their own Great Dao.

As for the system of Xu Shenghua and Lan Yutian, they fused the Dao realm system with the World Tree. The World Tree was equivalent to their own dao tree.

When a divine arts practitioner cultivated to the fifth supreme realm and began to condense the world tree, it was equivalent to stepping into the realm of a dao practitioner. Every deeper level of the Dao realm, the closer one was to the Perfect Dao practitioner.

The advantage of this cultivation method was that it scattered the qualitative changes into quantitative changes and distributed them to each dao realm.

‘Xu Shenghua’s ability isn’t much different from a single spirit official clone, but with two spirit official clones and Dao Flower Dao fruit, they would far surpass him. All he can rely on is his divine arts.’

Qin Mu was getting closer and closer to the Black Mountain, and the divine arts coming from the Black Mountain were also extremely dense, coming from different directions, it should be the three of them moving at an extremely high speed. ‘Xu Shenghua’s strength lies in his strength when he meets someone stronger. His brain is too flexible, and he can always think of ways to counter the opponent’s divine arts, paths, and skills in battle. “However, there is a prerequisite for this, and that is whether or not his knowledge reserves can reach the level of a spirit official!”

If his knowledge reserves were unable to contend with a spirit official, then no matter how smart he was, he would still be defeated!

The spirit official’s knowledge reserves came from the past four universe eras, as well as the Miluo Palace!

The Miluo Palace could be said to be the most glorious and largest holy land in the past 16 universe eras, and it was also the Supreme Holy Land!

Even though it was impossible for spirit officials to learn all the foundations of Miluo Palace, it was still no small matter. The fact that this hall master’s corporeal body could encompass almost all the ancient gods meant that he had astonishing attainments in these innate Great Dao.

It was almost impossible for Xu Shenghua to surpass him in terms of knowledge storage!

Qin Mu rushed into the Great Black Mountain, which had an extremely wide geographical area. He climbed up a mountain and looked over, only to see that the mountains had split open. There had been an unimaginable fierce battle here, and the mountains had been split apart!

Suddenly, the divine art ripples calmed down.

Qin Mu’s heart sank, and he dragged his exhausted body with all his might towards the place where the final divine art ripples had come from. At that moment, he suddenly saw a few graves at the foot of a black mountain with tombstones erected in front of them.

Qin Mu was slightly stunned, and his vertical eye opened. He forced it open and looked into the graves.

His expression was stunned and he revealed a smile. “Xu Shenghua this fellow, I thought he wouldn’t steal from himself... in terms of knowledge storage, spirit officials might not even be as good as him!”

He looked at the other Black Mountains and saw numerous tombs and stone tablets. The number of tombs here had exceeded Qin Mu’s expectations.

He slowed down his footsteps and continued to advance.

There were very few strong practitioners who had achieved dao from the world tree. Most of them had gathered in the ancestral court, Jade capital city. That was the sacred land of those who had achieved dao, and Dao trees formed forests.

Most of the strong practitioners who had chosen to sneak in from the world tree had no fate to achieve Dao, so they didn’t have the qualifications to enter the ancestral court, Jade capital city. Hence, if they wanted to live, they could only sneak in from the world tree.

Back then, due to cripple’s death, Qin Mu had entered the mine of Great Black Mountain in a rage and killed over a hundred strong practitioners in a row.

Xu Shenghua shouldn’t have obtained such great battle merits in a single night, but had been doing something similar every day for the past thirty years. In other words, he had been fighting with these prehistoric strong practitioners every day to temper himself.., his understanding of the paths, skills, and divine arts of the prehistoric era was probably even above that of spirit official!

This was the chance for Xu Shenghua to win!

‘he secretly drank a lot of Dao Dew, and it had greatly increased his cultivation. He drank a little every day and released a prehistoric strong practitioner, making up for the short amount of time he had cultivated. ‘If I were him, I would definitely drink all the dao dew in one gulp the moment I saw spirit official. I would use the power of Great Change Dao Dew to fight against spirit official

‘Xu Shenghua would do the same! He’s as smart as me!’

Even so, Qin Mu still struggled to walk forward. He had to see Xu Shenghua with his own eyes before he could be at ease.

Finally, Qin Mu came to the final place where the divine art ripples were coming from. He saw Hall Master Spirit Officer’s two ancient God clones standing in a valley. The remnants of the divine art were everywhere, and they were still filled with fatal ripples.

This divine art was a divine art that had been born from Mycroft Palace. The path chains were extremely blazing, forming an inescapable net that sealed this place!

Xu Shenghua was lying between the two ancient god clones, and there were blood stains all around him. He didn’t move at all.

‘could it be...’

Qin Mu’s heart sank. Hall master spirit official’s Dao fruit and dao flower were still there. Even though they were tattered, they weren’t completely destroyed. They were the dao fruits and dao flowers that maintained the inescapable net formed by the path chains!

Qin Mu walked forward, and his gaze landed on the two ancient god clones of spirit official. He was slightly stunned.

He walked towards the net of heaven and earth and passed through the terrifying dao chains. The power of the DAO chains burst forth with incomparable ferocity.

Qin Mu grunted and no longer had any magic power to resist. He used his powerful body of primordial chaos to forcefully withstand the final divine art and walked into the net of Heaven and earth.

Boom, Boom.

Two loud bangs sounded out as spirit official’s dao fruit exploded and dao flower exploded. Following that, the two ancient god bodies swayed and fell to the ground.

Xu Shenghua raised his head to take a look before lowering it again. He took a few deep breaths, his voice was hoarse. “Cult Master Qin, you’re here. I’m already unable to break his last divine art. He used his last strength to seal me here. When the sky turns dark, this place will become a paradise for the strong practitioners of prehistoric times, killing me...”

Qin Mu came to his side and examined the wounds on his body. There were many wounds on Xu Shenghua’s body, but they hadn’t healed yet. They contained the remnants of the paths and skills of Miluo Palace.

Qin Mu tried to heal him, but there was no vital qi left in his body that he could use.

“I’ve tried my best to avoid fatal injuries.”

Xu Shenghua revealed a rare smile and said, “You’re even more miserable than me, so heal yourself first. I just need to climb up the world tree and wait for the Dao Tree of great change to appear. Receiving some dao dew should be able to save my life...”

Suddenly, he felt water crashing onto his face.

Xu Shenghua was slightly stunned when he saw the tears in Qin Mu’s eyes falling like rain.

Xu Shenghua immediately asked, “Cult Master Qin, What’s wrong with you? I’m still alive and well...”

Qin Mu suddenly burst into tears and stood up shakily. He struggled to walk out. “I can’t Save Heavenly Venerate Yun, I can’t make it back in time... I have to make it back, I have to make it back as soon as possible...”

Xu Shenghua raised his hand and tried his best to grab his ankle, “Calm down!”He said with a hoarse voice. “Calm down! Your current situation isn’t much better than mine. Even if you forcefully hold on to rush back to origin world, you won’t be able to make it in time. Instead, you will have to spend more time. “Calm down, it’s almost night. You should rest for a while. When great change path tree comes out, you will drink a portion of Dao Dew and recover a portion of your cultivation. On the contrary, you will rush back to origin world ahead of Time!”

Qin Mu stopped and was silent for a moment. He bent down to help him up, but he staggered and the two of them almost fell to the ground.

The two of them supported each other and moved forward with great effort toward the World Tree.

The two most outstanding experts of eternal peace were like two old men at this moment, staggering forward.

The Sun was setting in the west.

When the sun set, they finally walked to the bottom of the world tree. Qin Mu recovered a trace of his cultivation and circulated his magic power to bring Xu Shenghua to the top of the world tree.

The two of them sat on the highest leaf and raised their heads to look up. The starry sky of the ancestral court was resplendent, and the stars were like flickering lanterns that kept changing and moving. The reason for this strange phenomenon was because of Xuan du.

The ancestor god King had led the star Dou gods of Xuan du to lead the Sun, Sun, and Moon Defense Army of Xuan du to attack carefree village and eternal peace. The star Dou Gods and sun, moon, and Moon defense were both star gods, so they would naturally cause chaos in the celestial phenomenon.

The chaos in the celestial phenomenon meant that the army of Xuandu had basically moved out!

Great Change’s Dao Tree appeared in the ultimate void, and Qin Mu and Xu Shenghua stood up shakily to receive the Dao Dew that dripped down.

“Can eternal peace be preserved?”Xu Shenghua suddenly asked.

“Eternal peace can be preserved, but carefree village can’t be preserved.”

Qin Mu swallowed the Dao Dew and executed his technique with great effort to refine it, “However, in order to take down carefree village, the Heavenly Court will have to pay a huge price. Carefree village is a weapon, a weapon refined from the wealth of founding emperor era.”

Xu Shenghua was slightly puzzled.

“I’ve been to carefree village and checked the internal structure of the layers of heavens in carefree village. The outer appearance of those heavens are ordinary earth and mountains, but the inner are forged with divine metal and divine iron, like incomparably exquisite machines.”

Qin Mu continued, “Founding Emperor Qin Ye’s carefree sword is hollow, and the thirty-three layers of heavens in carefree village is the sword heart of carefree village. The complete carefree sword should have hidden carefree village inside. “The power of carefree sword has never been very high, and it’s easy to break. The main reason is because of the sword heart. “Without sword heart, carefree village, the power of carefree sword can’t be unleashed to the extreme.”

Xu Shenghua was silent for a moment before saying, “Founding emperor is so patient.”

Qin Mu nodded and said, “He’s such a person. Carefree village is his final means of injuring the enemy. When the heavenly court’s army conquers the thirty-third heavens of carefree village, the secret of carefree village will be detonated.”

He recovered some of his cultivation and immediately treated Xu Shenghua’s dao injuries. “I can’t make a move for this night. I need to gather my strength and rush back to the origin world after daybreak. Can you hold on?”

Xu Shenghua said indifferently, “I’ve been killing here for thirty years, and I’m somewhat famous in the prehistoric universe. “There are a few smugglers who call me a hunter of the seventeenth epoch. My reputation isn’t inferior to that of the seventh young master of Miluo Palace. “No one should dare to come here in the first half of the night...”

He coughed violently and only calmed down after a moment. He continued, “There will probably be a wave of probing in the second half of the night. The second night will be the real attack. Don’t worry, after you leave, if you can’t beat me, you can leave.”

Qin Mu nodded silently and refined the dao dew, trying his best to recover his cultivation, “I’m more worried that heavenly venerate vast heaven has taken away almost all the sacred grounds of the ancestral court. “In the past, with the suppression of these sacred grounds, there wouldn’t have been much of a problem. “However, if even the Great Black Mountain is lost now, some existences might take the opportunity to come out.”

His gaze was deep as he said in a low voice, “In the prehistoric universe, there wasn’t just a sacred ground like Miluo Palace. There were other factions as well. Even if they weren’t as powerful as Miluo Palace, they were no trifling matter.”
