Tales of Herding Gods

Chapter 1179 – Outstanding heroes of past and present

Qin Mu departed Heavenly Yin World and walked towards Eternal Peace’s capital city with a lantern in his hands. Suddenly, he felt something in his heart and turned his heart to look. He saw a lush Primordial Tree standing in the centre of the Primordial Realm.

Celestial Venerable Xiao’s Celestial Palace floated in the canopy of the Primordial Tree. Celestial Venerable Xiao’s Divine Artifact Celestial Venerable Yu was beside it, suppressing the Primordial Realm.

At this moment, the Divine Artifact Celestial Venerable Yu was looking at him.

Qin Mu smiled and bowed. The Divine Artifact Celestial Venerable Yu nodded and retracted his gaze.

Qin Mu was about to return to the capital when a swallow flew over and landed on the ground and transformed into Yan Qiling. She stood in front of him and greeted, “Master ordered me to greet Celestial Venerable Mu. He said that if Celestial Venerable Mu is not able to defend his territory in Ancestral Court, Master can help. He has many strong practitioners under him.”

Qin Mu stopped and said, “Go back and tell him that I can guard my territory, there’s no need for him to worry.”

Yan Qiling took a deep look at him and said, “Master ordered me to go to Ancestral Court to guard the Grand Creation Mine and mine its Grand Creation Divine Stones.”

Qin Mu said, “Be careful.”

Yan Qiling was slightly stunned and revealed a smile, “I will.” After saying that, she turned to leave.

Qin Mu returned to the capital of Eternal Peace. Apothecary, First Ancestor Human Emperor, and the past human emperors had already been here for a long time. Blind and Mute were also present. Mute had brought over a dozen or so girls who were all gorgeously dressed. They were the Heavenly Workers under West Deity. There was also a batch of youths from Eternal Peace; they were all full of talents.

Qin Mu looked around and saw a group of familiar faces among the youths. Among them was the son of Preceptor Jiang Baigui, Jiang Yunjian, who had already grown into a handsome youth in his twenties.

Jiang Yunjian hurriedly greeted Qin Mu and called him elder uncle. Qin Mu was slightly unhappy and said earnestly, “Yunjian, your father is older than me, so don’t call me uncle.”

Jiang Yunjian hesitated for a moment, “Foster father…”

Qin Mu’s face turned red, and he pushed this brat aside. Jiang Yunjian said timidly, “Godfather…”

On the other side, there was a youth with a big head. It was Shu Jun who was sneaking around in the crowd, afraid that Qin Mu would see him. However, his head was too big, so Qin Mu still discovered him and pulled him out. He said angrily, “You want to go to Ancestral Court too?”

Divine King Shu Jun smiled apologetically, “Why can’t I go to Ancestral Court? Ancestral Court belongs to the masters of creation, not you.”

Qin Mu’s expression changed, and Divine King Shu Jun hurriedly said, “I’m familiar with Ancestral Court. I was a landowner after all, so I can definitely help you! Besides, will I even be able to cause a ruckus against you even if I went there? Now that the masters of creation are declining, I don’t have half a master of creation under me. Even now, I no longer look like a master of creation, but more like a human. I’m now a young rookie of Eternal Peace, and my reputation is renowned!”

Qin Mu hesitated for a moment and said, “I’m afraid that you will recall your past glory and can’t resist stirring up trouble. Your territory has already been occupied by Grand Emperor.”

Shu Jun didn’t care and smiled. “We can just take it back in the future.”

Qin Mu could only let him be.

Everyone was ready to set off. Ling Yuxiu ordered the manufacturing factory to send a fast ship over, and everyone boarded it. The fast ship wasn’t big and was only thirty metres long.

Ling Yuxiu sent them off and handed a taotie sack to Qin Mu. “There’s a Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge inside. When you reach the outside of Ancestral Court, you can build the bridge and establish contact with Eternal Peace.”

Qin Mu pondered for a moment and nodded.

The fast ship sailed into the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge that was heading to the Patriarch Creation Palace. Not long later, it appeared in the Patriarch Creation Palace.

Just as they arrived at the Patriarch Creation Palace, they saw that in this sacred ground of forging, ships that were dozens of miles long had already set sail!

It was the ship of the disciples of the ten Celestial Venerables of Celestial Heavens. It seemed like an island is moving in the sky. It had been repaired in the Patriarch Creation Palace and was filled with medicinal stones. The gods and devils on the ship were fully armed, and gods stood in great numbers. They were overflowing with killing intent as they headed for Ancestral Court.

The pill furnaces on the ships were blazing with flames and flickering with white light. The huge pill furnaces were like small suns.

In the centre of the deck of the ship, there was a Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge. These Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridges could connect the ship to Celestial Heavens, making it convenient for them to assist.

On every ship, there were banners with different designs and words embroidered on them. They represented Hao, Xiao, Hong, Gong, Qiang, and Huo, and the other ten Celestial Venerables!

“Foster father, should we raise the flag of Celestial Venerable Mu?” Jiang Yunjian asked.

Qin Mu was about to say something when Mute and Blind took out their flags excitedly. There was a cow head and a cowherd embroidered on them, and there was also the character ‘Mu’. They hung it up.

The ships on both sides looked at the fast ships below and burst into laughter.

“Celestial Venerable Mu!”

On one of the ships, a god bent down and said with a smile, “Celestial Venerable’s ship is small and slow, unable to match a Celestial Venerable’s esteemed status. Why don’t you come here? We are all rushing to Ancestral Court, so we can give you a lift along the way.”

Blind said angrily, “You have eyes yet your sight is lacking. How could someone with shallow knowledge like you even comprehend the benefits of this ship?”

Even though he said that, he was still uneasy and asked Mute in a low voice, “Blacksmith, how’s this ship? Can it beat those huge ships of Celestial Heavens?”

Mute examined the ship of Celestial Heavens and shook his head. “Even though the ship of Celestial Heavens is old-fashioned and consumes a lot of medicinal stones, its firepower is very strong. Our ship is small and has a weak foundation; we can’t compare to it. The ship of Celestial Heavens only need to operate the pill furnaces at full capacity to easily shake us off.”

Apothecary nodded his head and sniffed the air, “Their pill furnaces don’t have enough spirit energy to burn the medicinal stones fully, but the medicinal stones they use are of the highest quality. When they burn, the firepower is fierce. Even though the pill furnaces of Eternal Peace are more refined, our furnaces are smaller and can’t be compared.”

The fleet sailed out of Celestial Heavens, and the ships under the ten Celestial Venerables unleashed their full power. Their speed was extremely fast, and they only left trails of light in the starry sky, leaving their small ship far behind.

Qin Mu took out Celestial Venerable Yue’s lantern and hung it on the mast.

The fast ship still moved forward slowly, but it soon saw Celestial Heavens’ battleship in front of it. Not long later, the fast ship arrived in front of it.

On the battleships of Celestial Heavens were countless shocked faces.

Everyone turned back to look and saw that Celestial Heavens’ battleships had already been overtaken a while ago, vanishing into the horizon without a trace.

After a few days, the fast ship arrived near Ancestral Court. Everyone looked from afar and saw a crack in the sky. It was scarlet red and covered in fresh blood.

Qin Mu came to the side of the crack in the sky and stopped the small boat. He took out the taotie sack that Ling Yuxiu had given him and took out the parts of the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge.

Everyone immediately went forward to help and hurriedly built the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge.

Qin Mu activated the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge, and a beam of light instantly shot up into the sky from the top of the sacrificial altar.

A Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge in the Primordial Realm’s Eternal Peace also lit up at the same time. The formation was activated, and the two bridges were connected.

Qin Mu muttered to himself for a moment, and his divine arts burst forth. He imprinted them into the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge and said, “It’s done now. Let’s enter Ancestral Court.”

The divine art he executed was Celestial Venerable Ling’s Unchanging Material Divine Art. Even if the bridge was shattered, it would quickly recover to its original state. This way, the path wouldn’t be broken.

Everyone came to the front of the crack in the sky and looked at the seals left behind by the eight Celestial Venerables. They felt apprehensive.

Qin Mu said with a smile, “Eight Celestial Venerables sealed this place, and I also applied my seal. We can easily pass through my seal.”

“Mu’er, where is your seal?” Blind looked around for a long time, but he couldn’t see where Qin Mu’s seal was.

“It’s right there. Do you see the line that is sandwiched between the seals of the Eight Celestial Venerables?”

Qin Mu pointed for a moment, and only then did everyone see it. Their expressions were weird, “A seal this small, how do we pass through it?”
