Tales of Herding Gods

Chapter 1226 – Grand Arrival

Hu Mengdie’s body swayed, and she finally fell to the ground.

“Son of Heaven Yin indeed has great abilities, even his disciples are so outstanding.”

Qin Mu pulled back his sword with a grim expression. The reason why Hu Mengdie couldn’t fight back in front of him wasn’t because his cultivation was strong. In fact, Hu Mengdie’s cultivation was still deeper than his.

He was able to kill Hu Mengdie because he had almost completely researched the paths, skills, and divine arts of Son of Heaven Yin’s bloodline.

Furthermore, his attainments in the Dao of Reincarnation also caught up to Son of Heaven Yin. Even so, the lack of cultivation forced him to use dreams to attract Hu Mengdie, forcing her to use magic power to break the dream.

In the end, Hu Mengdie exhausted her cultivation and died under his sword.

‘The Without Embroiling City that Hu Mengdie refined is also full of ideas. It’s a pretty good treasure.’

Qin Mu raised his hand, and Without Embroiling City flew up, transforming into another wooden stake. This wooden stake only had three hundred and sixty-five rings, so it should only be a branch on the Primordial Tree. To be refined to such an extent by Hu Mengdie was truly extraordinary.

Back then, Mother Earth had given Qin Mu a core of the Primordial Tree that had a length of fifty million rings. If he used a refinement method like Hu Mengdie, the power would be unimaginable!

“Just this point alone shows the power of the Primordial Tree. Celestial Venerable Xiao is unfathomable—”

He was even more wary of the abilities of the ten Celestial Venerables of the celestial heavens. Celestial Venerable Hao had risked his life to kill Mother Earth and Celestial Venerable Xiao to seize the Primordial Tree. These two people were probably top-notch existences among the ten Celestial Venerables!

Heavenly Lady Qiang’s ability to retrieve the Grand Emperor’s corporeal body was terrifying, but it was unknown if she could suppress them.

He walked forward. He had already comprehended the path of reincarnation. Even though it wasn’t complete and the seventeenth celestial palace, the reincarnation celestial palace, wasn’t completely constructed, it was still decided by his foundation.

His Dao of Reincarnation was even more complete than Son of Heaven Yin’s. Son of Heaven Yin was able to cultivate the Reincarnation Celestial Palace because his talent were limited. He could only comprehend so much and hastily refined the celestial palace.

On the other hand, Qin Mu was striving for perfection, and his foundation was too good. If he wanted to refine it even more perfectly, it would be even harder to refine the Reincarnation Heavenly Palace.

“The main camp of the celestial heavens is almost here.”

Qin Mu looked forward and saw the apparitions of god cities standing upright in the Great Void. Looking from the Great Void and Youdu, there was only gray, and he couldn’t see any human figures. He could only see moving divine treasures of life and death.

The Life and Death Divine Treasure was the sixth great divine treasure of the human body. Anyone who opened it would be able to comprehend life and death and know how much lifespan they had left.

However, the opening of the Life and Death Divine Treasure to Youdu also resulted in a terrifying outcome. It could invade the Life and Death Divine Treasure of a person from Youdu and make them die mysteriously.

This was also why the celestial heavens was determined to get Youdu.

If they could control Youdu, no one in the world would be able to resist the celestial heavens!

The Great Void and Youdu were built by Qin Fengqing, and they also had a part of Youdu’s characteristics. Thus, they could observe the Life and Death Divine Treasure of the gods, devils, and divine arts practitioners.

However, the Life and Death Divine Treasures of the great army of the celestial heavens were all sealed. Looking from the Great Void and Youdu, the runes were flickering, so they should have been set up by strong practitioners who were skilled in formations to guard against attacks from Youdu.

Other than that, the various killing formations in the god cities were overflowing with flames. Even in the Great Void and Youdu, they felt incomparably dangerous, making people shrink back at the sight of them.

‘It’s not easy for me to sneak into the city. I should walk closer and show myself. As Celestial Venerable Mu, Celestial Venerable Huo, Celestial Venerable Xu, and the rest won’t kill me in front of the army.’

Qin Mu raised his feet and was about to walk forward when he suddenly saw cherry blossoms blooming in front of him. The grass grew and the orioles flew, and the entire world suddenly became alive, giving Youdu another color.

The cherry blossom forest was filled with song and dance, and the melody was melodious. There was also the sound of flowing water, and before Qin Mu could even see the scenery there, a clear pond appeared in front of his eyes. On the shore, there were numerous women playing the zither and singing. In the pond, there were young women raising the pond water to reveal their fair arms, and their fingers were like white onions.

Qin Mu laughed and walked towards the cherry blossom forest.

He split the flowers and brushed the willows, entering this charming and gentle place.

After taking a few steps, he saw a few clothes hanging on the cherry blossom tree. They were as thin as cicada wings and as soft as silk.

Qin Mu stopped to take a look and continued forward. Suddenly, a shirt slid down from the tree and landed on his shoulder. Qin Mu took it off, and it was a white belly band.

He picked up the undergarment and sniffed it. There was a fragrance.

Qin Mu held the undergarment in his hand, and it curled up into a ball. It was so light that it seemed weightless.

He took another two steps forward, and the music became clearer. A few rows of houses with red tiles and white walls appeared in front of his eyes. There were also bamboo fences. They weren’t tall and only reached his chest.

Inside the fence was a clear pond. Numerous women were frolicking by the pond. Some were running around barefoot and wearing wet shorts. Some were sitting by the pond playing the zither, some were hugging the pipa, some had flaming red lips, and they were holding grapes in their small mouths. They were pressing on the body of another white-clothed girl and feeding her grapes.

Meanwhile, the white clothes on the girl’s body were already wet. She closed her eyes and took the grape from the mouth of the girl with red lips.

Qin Mu looked through the fence and saw that the pond was filled with red clothes. A woman slowly rose from the red clothes, revealing half of her body. She burst into laughter and said, “Why does the grand Celestial Venerable Mu only dare to look outside and not come in?”

The women beside the pool all turned their heads to look outside and said with a smile, “Celestial Venerable Mu is so famous, yet he’s actually a lecher. He only dares to look and doesn’t dare to enter.”

Qin Mu laughed loudly. “Son of Heaven Yin really knows how to enjoy himself, to actually have so many beauties accompanying him. I think this ginkgo is probably going to come out of the fence.”

Red clothes slowly rose from the pond like a blazing fire. The tip of the woman’s foot tapped gently on the water surface, and her red dress coiled around her body. She landed on the throne beside the pond, and the other women rushed over, either lying on their sides or snuggling around her.

Qin Mu pushed open the fence and walked in. He visualized slightly, and the throne appeared on its own. He sat down beside the pool opposite the girls and said with a smile, “I’m not married yet, I wonder if Son of Heaven Yin can part with me?”

The woman in red raised her hand to cover her chest, but her clothes slid down her delicate legs, revealing a long and fair leg. She chuckled and said, “If Celestial Venerable Mu is interested in these vulgar women, feel free to choose. I wonder which one you like?”

Qin Mu raised his hand and pointed. The woman in red smiled and said, “I can’t. I’m old and frail, and I’m the imperial concubine of the Netherworld Emperor. I can’t enter the Celestial Venerable’s eyes.”

Qin Mu said with a smile, “Son of Qingqing’s chant makes my heart flutter, but as the emperor’s predecessor, I have remained silent until now. If Son of Heaven Yin doesn’t give up, I can only get rid of him and take my wife by force.”

The woman in red burst into laughter. Her jade-like fingers were like white onions, and she pointed over with a smile. “Celestial Venerable, you killed an important minister of the celestial heavens for a woman, so it’s inevitable that you will be ruthlessly stabbed in the back. I don’t want to be the person that makes Celestial Venerable carry the infamy.”

She was separated from Qin Mu by a pond, but her jade finger came straight to the heart of Qin Mu’s brows.

Qin Mu smiled and sat there without moving.

When the woman in red’s fingertip was about to reach the eye in the heart of his brows, Qin Mu opened it.

The woman’s slender fingers suddenly exploded and her flesh melted, leaving only a bone!

Imperial Concubine Yu Wu was shocked and furious. With a furious shout, she stood up, her red clothes like fire!

All around her, those dainty women also rose into the air and landed behind her. They were valiant, wielding all kinds of divine weapons with murderous intent as they stood upright in her celestial palace!

Qin Mu laughed loudly, and the throne beneath him crumbled into fine powder. “The three great things of a man—promotion, wealth, and a dead wife! It looks like Son of Heaven Yin is going to have a great celebration!”
