Tales of Herding Gods

Chapter 1243 – Ruler Of The Ancient Gods

The ten Celestial Venerables of the celestial heavens had created the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu in order to achieve the Grand Emperor’s current state. However, they had always been borrowing external objects and not their true abilities.

On the other hand, the Grand Emperor could achieve this step on his own, or even stronger!

“The peerless overlord of the primordial era is extraordinary!”

Qin Mu couldn’t help exclaiming in admiration. The Grand Emperor’s current state wasn’t his strongest state. If he reached his strongest state, he would still need a complete Grand Primordium Origin Stone embedded in the heart of his brows!

Not only that, he also needed to retract Celestial Venerable Qiang’s magic power and consciousness!

At that time, he would be the complete Grand Emperor!

With the Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven above, the Grand Emperor in this form was definitely the most terrifying existence in the world since ancient times!

Now, Qin Mu finally understood that the masters of creation ruled over the ancient gods and enslaved them. It wasn’t just empty talk.

It was the masters of creation of the primordial era that created such a powerful monster like the Grand Emperor.

They could create a Grand Emperor, a second Grand Emperor, and a third one. Enslaving the ancient gods wasn’t a lie.

“However, the path of consciousness from the Grand Primordium Dao has a huge flaw. That is Celestial Venerable Ling’s unchanging substance divine art.”

Qin Mu had a weird expression. Under the influence of the unchanging divine art, the Grand Emperor couldn’t visualize anything and couldn’t think of any Great Dao. He was completely suppressed and had no chance to resist!

Under the power of the complete unchanging divine art, he didn’t even have a chance to make a move before he was completely solidified by it.

Compared to the Connate Qi, the path of consciousness had a huge flaw.

Connate Qi was also from the Dao of Absolute Beginning. It could resist unchanging divine arts and even kill the owner of divine arts.

‘This should be the reason why the Grand Emperor’s primordial spirit reincarnation, Ming Fangyu, controlled the corporeal body of Celestial Emperor Tai Chu to kill Celestial Venerable Ling,’ he thought to himself.

Suddenly, he felt an indescribable Dao rune coming from his side. He hurriedly turned back and saw that Lan Yutian was actually listening to the Dao rune coming from the zither melody. He had unknowingly fallen into a state of Dao comprehension!

Qin Mu was stunned. Even though he had Celestial Emperor’s eggshell and extraordinary attainments in the Connate Qi and the Great Dao of Consciousness, even though the masters of creation of the Great Void and the ancestor spirits of the Ancestor Spirit World imparted consciousness comprehension to him, he didn’t fall into a state of comprehension after hearing the zither notes.

On the other hand, this should be Lan Yutian’s first time coming into contact with the Dao of Consciousness and the Connate Qi , yet he fell into a state of Dao comprehension after listening to the rhythm of the zither. This aptitude was too heaven-defying!

Qin Mu muttered to himself and suddenly entered the path in his dream. Pieces of dream realm spread out from the strings of light, and countless diligent little Qin Mus were listening to the music of the zither and comprehending the marvel within.

Even though his talent was far inferior to Lan Yutian’s, Lan Yutian’s attainments in algebra were inferior to his. Furthermore, his knowledge of Brahma Buddha’s heart of buddhism was also inferior to his.

Therefore, he could enter the path in his dreams to comprehend it, but Lan Yutian couldn’t. This was his shortcut, and no one could be envious of him.

His corporeal body fell asleep, and his primordial spirit continued to open its eyes. He used his primordial spirit to observe the battle between the Grand Emperor and Celestial Venerable Hao, trying to figure out the divine arts of these two peak existences.

Bai Yujing looked at the two of them and opened her mouth, speechless.

After a moment, she sighed faintly.

“I got to where I am now because of my experience of two hundred lifetimes. However, Celestial Venerable Mu and Brother Lan were born with talent and intelligence. One relied on techniques and divine arts to deduce, while the other directly entered the path. Comparatively…”

She shook her head. Even though she could also hear numerous marvels of the Great Dao from the zither melody, it would take an unknown amount of time to comprehend them completely.

In comparison, her wisdom and methods were inferior to Qin Mu’s, and her talent was worlds apart from Celestial Venerable Yu’s.

“Hard work makes up for your lack of talent!”

She looked at the hardworking little Qin Mu in Qin Mu’s dream world who was as hardworking as a bee and grunted. “But he’s not as hardworking as others… What if I awaken South Deity’s soul? What if I become South Deity…”

She suddenly shuddered and hurriedly wiped away this terrifying thought.

In the distance, the power of the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu was also pushed to its limits by Celestial Venerable Hao. This huge divine weapon was also like the Grand Emperor, with ancient gods living in each of its apertures. They controlled all the paths in the world, and their battle power was overflowing.

However, compared to the Grand Emperor, the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu was still inferior.

On the body, the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu couldn’t be compared to the Grand Emperor. His corporeal body was born from the Dao of Creation. Even with the support of the Great Dao, the Grand Emperor was also blessed by the Great Dao. He was also refined by the masters of creation of the primordial era day and night.

In terms of vital qi, the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu had much more vital qi than the Grand Emperor. However, the Grand Emperor’s cultivation was consciousness, and his consciousness was strong enough to imprint the ultimate void!

In terms of vital qi, even the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu hadn’t reached this step.

Under the attack of the Grand Emperor, the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu retreated continuously. His skin and flesh were lacerated, and the markings of the Great Dao on his body were shattered. The ancient gods’ lights in his body were extinguished one after another.

The divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu was a giant that could destroy heaven and earth, suppressing all worlds. However, in front of the Grand Emperor, he was like a little brother that could only be beaten.

At that moment, celestial palaces suddenly leaped out from behind Celestial Venerable Hao. At the same time, celestial palaces appeared behind the divine weapon Celestial Venerable Yu, causing their magic power to increase exponentially!

Two celestial heavens appeared, and their structures were different. Different celestial palaces and celestial palaces could combine to form different Great Celestial Heavens techniques, while different Great Celestial Heavens techniques had different powers.

With the appearance of the two celestial heavens, the power of their paths, skills, and divine arts instantly increased exponentially!

Celestial Venerable Hao had been holding back the whole time, like a venomous snake staring at its prey, waiting for the chance to kill it in one strike.

And now, he finally didn’t have to endure anymore and directly displayed his true abilities!

The Grand Emperor laughed. “Celestial Venerable Hao, I’ve been waiting for this!”

His consciousness burst forth, transforming into numerous celestial palaces behind him that formed a celestial heavens.

Bai Yujing stared with her eyes wide open. Her heart was beating rapidly.

She suddenly thought of a possibility. One of the ten Celestial Venerables was the Grand Emperor!

The Grand Emperor, who was killed by Celestial Venerable Yun and Celestial Venerable Ling back then, naturally couldn’t comprehend his own Great Celestial Heavens technique. After he revived, he couldn’t comprehend the Great Celestial Heavens technique in a short period of time, and there was only one possibility for him to execute his own Great Celestial Heavens technique.

“That is, the Grand Emperor is hidden among the ten Celestial Venerables, and this Celestial Venerable is nearby!”

Her hair stood on end.

Even though she knew that there were many things going on between the ten Celestial Venerables, she didn’t expect there to be so many things going on!

The ten Celestial Venerables were high and mighty. Even though a heavenly master like her was high and mighty to many people, she was insignificant in front of the ten Celestial Venerables. Crushing her was like crushing an ant.

Now that she knew this secret, how much longer could she live?

At that moment, she suddenly saw Qin Mu’s primordial spirit leave his body and look at her with interest.

Bai Yujing composed herself and decided to tell him about her discovery. “Celestial Venerable Mu, one of the ten Celestial Venerables of the celestial heavens is the Grand Emperor. He’s nearby!”

Qin Mu’s primordial spirit smiled at her and said leisurely, “I already know, and I also know that this Celestial Venerable is Heavenly Lady Qiang. I also know that the ancient Celestial Emperor is among them, Celestial Venerable Xiao. Do you want to know the identities of Celestial Empress, Yuanmu, Heaven Duke, and the ancient divine king among the ten Celestial Venerables?”
