Tales of Herding Gods

Panda Novel

The surging land suddenly regained calmness and the Imperial Gate Divine Knife that was stabbed in the ground sliced open the ground towards the west. Heavenly King Tian Shu grabbed the handle of the knife and tried to stabilize the divine knife. However, the power under the ground was extremely powerful and as a result, he was also dragged forward by his knife towards the west.

Imperial Gate Divine Knife was incomparably sharp and when it passed by a mountain, the huge mountain was suddenly sliced vertically in half!

Farmer saw this situation and gave a shout. He punched on the ground and heard cracks coming from below as though something was being broken into sections.

Tian Shu was finally able to pull out Imperial Gate Divine Knife and when he pulled out his knife, his body transformed into a goat-head god. He grew a pair of horns and swung his knife down again.

He gave it his all when he swung this knife and even though he had only slashed once, countless knife lights tunneled underground.

His knife skills were very intricate and he was the highest achievement in the knife path during Founding Emperor Era, otherwise, Founding Emperor wouldn’t have got him to wield his knife to slash Earth Count.

When this knife slashed down, the surface of the ground cracked continuously and knife lights could faintly be seen shuttling to and fro. There were also huge roots flailing in the knife lights and the land which was bulging up quickly moved to the west. Soon, mountains far away trembled like waves and moved away at an extremely fast speed.

Puddles of blood formed swamps on the ground and there was still sunlight rising from the lake.

Tian Shu pulled out his knife and carried the huge knife on his shoulder. He asked puzzledly, “I had clearly hit her but why couldn’t Imperial Gate Divine Knife take away her soul?”

“When you slash Earth Count, did you manage to take away his soul?”

Behind him, Farmer’s voice rang out. “Come on, let’s return to the capital city.”

Tian Shu turned around and returned to the capital city with him.

Inside the manor of the capital city, Di Yiyue and Scholar worked together to get rid of Mother Earth’s blessing. However, Qin Mu’s mind was also muddled and confused. He hugged the wall and puked without anything coming out. Only after a while was he back to normal but his face was still slightly pale.

The few heavenly teachers and heavenly kings looked at one another in dismay. “We had only broken Mother Earth’s blessing and Qin Mu got tormented like this, there are hundreds of blessings behind Celestial Venerable Yu’s head and he’s only on Spirit Embryo Realm, how is he going to endure it?”

Qin Mu shook his head but the world was still spinning.

He didn’t have much feeling when Saint Woodcutter plucked Earth Aeon Dao Fruit and that was because the fruit was connected to his soul. Saint Woodcutter had just struck his soul into Youdu and cut off the connection between him and fruit, causing it to automatically drop.

However, Mother Earth’s blessing was different, this kind of blessing was more complicated and it could absorb the power of the land to recover continuously. Also, it was connected with his corporeal body so even if Qin Mu died, the blessing would still exist.

The method which Scholar and Di Yiyue used was the most barbaric method, by breaking every single one of the runes which formed Mother Earth’s blessing.

During these few days, they had completely comprehended all of these runes and each of them thought of their own solution. As they were solving, these vibrations bombarded Qin Mu’s corporeal body and primordial spirit, causing him to be extremely uncomfortable.

“Celestial Venerable Yu can’t endure this.”

Saint Woodcutter shook his head and said, “If we are to get rid of those blessings, we need strong practitioners on Emperor’s Throne Realm to protect his primordial spirit and corporeal body, we also have to be on guard in case the power of the ancient gods come attacking. Celestial Venerable Yu’s responsibility is enormous, his revival is definitely no secret to the ancient gods that had blessed him. If we were to break the blessings, not only Mother Earth will be lured over, we need to end this fast, we need to wipe out these blessings before these ancient gods react!”

Scholar shook her head, “My wisdom is lacking, I can’t completely get rid of the blessings behind his head.”

Di Yiyue also shook her head, “These blessings are vast, I can easily break the blessings of the four deities and Heaven Duke, however, there are still some blessings that I don’t understand.”

Sakra, Farmer, and Fisherman also shook their heads.

Saint Woodcutter said, “In that case, I shall solve it along with my little disciple. You guys shall protect us from any attack from the ancient gods. Baigui, come over.”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor heard him and came over. “Teacher.”

Saint Woodcutter said, “Both of us shall work together and break the blessings behind Celestial Venerable Yu’s head, are you confident?”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor pondered for a moment, “Celestial Emperor’s blessing will be slightly difficult. Celestial Emperor’s blessing is complicated and contains many kinds of Great Dao. It will take some time to solve it, this is my first time seeing such a marvelous Great Dao. However, if I work together with teacher, I am eighty to ninety percent confident.”

Woodcutter said, “I shall work together with Baigui, First Heavenly King, guard Celestial Venerable Yu’s corporeal body and primordial spirit to protect him from the attacks of the ancient gods.”

Everyone nodded in acknowledgment.

Di Yiyue called Celestial Venerable Yu over and used her magic power to protect his corporeal body and soul. She nodded her head gently in acknowledgment.

Woodcutter said, “Baigui, which blessing of the ancient gods do you think we should break first.”

“First break Mother Earth, then break Heaven Duke and Earth Count before touching Celestial Emperor.”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor said, “Mother Earth is already dead and she had retreated in defeat just now, her blessing is the easiest to break. Next, we shall break Heaven Duke and Earth Count, both ancient gods knows second senior brother so they won’t stop us or alarm other ancient gods. Next, we will break Celestial Emperor. Second senior brother told me Celestial Emperor is already dead, so even though breaking his blessing would be difficult, he won’t dare to appear. After this, we will break Celestial Empress and her sister, four deities, and then the rest of the gods.

Saint Woodcutter asked, “Will there be ancient gods interfering and stopping us?”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor shook his head and said, “The crux lies in Celestial Empress and the four deities, if the speed to break the blessing of these six ancient gods is fast enough, we can make the extraterritorial celestial heavens have no time to react. As for the remaining ancient gods, they are not much of a problem and I can break them easily. We need to be fast and catch them off guard so no gods can capture our location, preventing them from descending.”

Saint Woodcutter’s eyes became brighter and brighter. He smiled and said, “I have three disciples, the one who has received my true teachings is only you.”

Qin Mu snorted and was rather displeased. “What true teaching? Teacher, you never allow me to listen when you are teaching junior brother, you never taught me before so where are the true teachings from?”

Saint Woodcutter ignored him. Both of them immediately made their move to walk around Celestial Venerable Yu.

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor pulled out his sword while Saint Woodcutter took down his ax. The sword moved like the lightning and the ax moved like the wind, every move was extremely intricate and caused everyone to exclaim in admiration.

“Jiang Baigui is very similar to Woodcutter.”

Farmer looked and whispered to Scholar, “However, his aptitude seems to be higher than Woodcutter. His cultivation is already close to Woodcutter.”

Scholar nodded her head gently, “Because big heavenly teacher was too focus on too many things, his cultivation has halted as a result. His vitality is limited and by holding up Founding Emperor’s reform by himself, he had delayed his cultivation. On the other hand, for Jiang Baigui to still be able to improve at such a godly speed after learning most of his knowledge, he is indeed not normal.”

Farmer looked at Qin Mu who was rather displeased at the side and asked softly, “Why doesn’t Woodcutter teach Qin Mu that kid? That kid is angry now, his face is now even longer than your donkey.”

Scholar shook her head. “I don’t know about this. However, what Qin Mu had learned is also very messy, and even though they are messy, they are all very skilled, it’s truly not bad at all. Especially his sword skills, even I can’t block them.”

“I know why big brother doesn’t teach him.”

Fisherman walked over and said with a low voice, “I’ve interacted with this kid for a period of them and I admire him very much, thus I ask big brother why don’t he teach Qin Mu. He had a very weird expression back then and said this to me. Among his three disciples, he knew what he should teach to his big disciple and little disciple, only his second disciple he has no idea what to teach so he decides not to teach anything, letting him grow on his own.”

Scholar didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She asked the old farmer, “I see his Martial Dao isn’t weak, did you teach him that?”

Farmer snorted and shook his head. “I never did. Back then when I threw Woodcutter into the ditch to soak, this kid came searching and he was very haughty. He said he could solve the problem of the people in Bullfighting World having no divine bridge and he wanted to use that to exchange for Woodcutter. I allowed him to barge through Bullfighting Palace and that was how he had comprehended Martial Dao. I didn’t teach him anything. Never would I thought that this kid had actually solved it…”

Scholar was stunned and looked at Qin Mu. Qin Mu was still pulling a long face and looked rather unhappy.

‘Having such a disciple, I don’t know if Wen Tiange is lucky or unlucky.’ She thought to herself.

After a short while, Woodcutter and Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor broke Mother Earth’s blessing and both of them immediately started on Heaven Duke’s blessing. Their speed was fast and they dealt with Earth Count’s blessing next. The few heavenly teachers and heavenly kings wore weird expressions on their faces as they looked.

Even Di Yiyue was frowning greatly. Both of them were breaking through the blessings way too fast. If it was her, she couldn’t have done it at such a fast speed.

To reach such a fast speed, one would require to have extremely high intelligence and terrifying deduction ability. Furthermore, they have to complement each other flawlessly without making a single mistake.

Woodcutter and Imperial Preceptor didn’t practice beforehand and had just worked on it directly yet their cooperation was truly flawless!

Soon, these two people finally started to deal with Celestial Emperor’s blessing. This was the hardest blessing and both of their speed slowed down. Every sword, every ax, seemed to be extremely slow and heavy.

They moved slowly and they were lifting something light as though it was heavy. The time taken for every strike became longer and longer while their sweat started to vaporize from their body into steam. Their qi and blood were also becoming more and more vigorous.

After two days, beads of blood seeped out of Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor’s skin while Woodcutter also had two streaks of blood rolling down his eyes. His hair had turned white.

Celestial Emperor’s blessing was simply too strong and it had forced them to raise their wisdom to the limits. Their brains were operating at an astonishing speed and this was still after they had analyzed the marvels of the runes in Celestial Emperor’s blessing. If they were completely clueless, they wouldn’t have been able to make a move.

Another two days later, Woodcutter’s breath became exhausted and since Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor was much younger, he had more and more comprehension when breaking Celestial Emperor’s blessing and thus his qi and blood increased instead of decreasing.

Finally, both of them were finally able to break the halo formed from Celestial Emperor’s blessing.

Blood leaked out from the corner of Woodcutter’s mouth and he moved back. “Baigui, can you settle the rest of the blessings on your own?”

“I can try!”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor roared and his body suddenly increased in speed. He transformed into a series of afterimages and at this moment, it was as if there was countless Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor around Celestial Venerable Yu. Every Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor was executing different sword move to stab at the halo behind Celestial Venerable Yu’s head, causing all kinds of dazzling and colorful light to burst forth.

Di Yiyue, Scholar, Farmer became nervous.

When they were breaking the blessing earlier, Heaven Duke and Earth Count wouldn’t stop them while Mother Earth and Celestial Emperor were dead. Now only Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor was left and the gods of the remaining blessings could still very well be alive!

Suddenly, Celestial Empress’s blessing extinguished with a pop and a few breaths later, Celestial Empress’ sister’s blessing also extinguished. Next, the blessings of the four deities dimmed and were extinguished as well.

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor’s speed grew faster and faster. His apparitions also grew more and more, forcing everyone back to give him a larger space to use.

The halo behind Celestial Venerable Yu’s head decreased and the speed where the blessings were extinguished was growing faster and faster. Everyone was dazzled and they exclaimed to themselves in admiration.

“You are helping your little disciple to succeed.”

Scholar whispered, “You aren’t so weak that you will cough up blood from exhaustion.”

Saint Woodcutter revealed a smile, “I’m already old and I’m the heavenly teacher of Founding Emperor, I can’t keep helping Eternal Peace. A teacher has to teach to solve doubts, now that I’ve taught and solved the doubts, only then am I truly a teacher.”

Scholar pouted at Qin Mu and asked softly, “So what about that disciple of yours? Have you taught him to solve his doubts?”

Saint Woodcutter’s head was huge and he said at a loss, “I don’t know what I can teach him or how I should teach him… He’s like a Celestial Venerable Yu, after learning the basics, he can create something that can astound you and scare you half to death. I don’t dare to teach him…”

Finally, Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor finally broke all the blessing and kept his sword behind his back. He shut his eyes to focus and sank into a kind of marvelous realm.

Breaking the ancient gods’ blessing this time had allowed him to gain much, allowing him to enter a profound comprehension that was even more profound.

This was the result of Woodcutter’s help. Woodcutter had guided him into a battle of wits with the ancient gods, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and Woodcutter himself. Later, Woodcutter withdrew and allow Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor to bring out his intellect and as a result, there was this comprehension of Dao.

“This could be Jiang Baigui’s most crucial comprehension in his life, the one that will determine his success in the future.”

No one disturbed him and they all left.

When Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor, it was already a month later. He looked around and Qin Mu’s manor was already completed. Everyone had left long ago and when he raised their head, he saw a huge Primordial Tree had enveloped the entire capital city.

“Qin Mu had gone to Surging River with numerous human emperors and Dao Master.”

Gongsun Yan who was under the tree told him. “He told me to tell Imperial Preceptor not to worry and Imperial Preceptor can prepare the technique to seal Southern Heavenly Gate as soon as possible.”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor stared blankly and said with a smile, “Why didn’t you go with him?”

“I’m used to being rooted here.” That girl smiled.

Qin Mu sat on the back of the dragon qilin and hurried on the way with the numerous human emperors. As they crossed the majestic mountains and rivers which calmed their nerves, he suddenly saw a black boar and was delighted. He hurriedly shouted, “Catch that demon boar!”

The water qilin hurriedly sprinted over and caught that black demon boar.

Qin Mu took out the imperial edict of Celestial Emperor and said with a smile, “I was just thinking of how to get rid of this Celestial Emperor’s blessing. After a moment, he opened up the imperial edict at the muddle-headed black demon boar.

After a moment, Qin Mu tossed the imperial edict aside and left with the rest.

“Celestial Venerable Mu, we finally meet.” An incomparably ancient consciousness fluctuated silently and appeared in the mind of the black demon boar.

“Snort snort!” That black demon boar cried out in astonishment.
