692 Gathering of Wise Men (1/2)

Qin Mu stood in the darkness and looked around. He still saw some starved ghosts in the darkness, but there weren't a large number of them. What he could see were only some starved ghosts that were floating around aimlessly.

Of course, the starved ghosts were still extremely dangerous. Their speed was too fast, and if any ordinary person walked into the darkness, the ghosts would devour them completely.

The darkness was still around, but the number of starved ghosts had decreased. That meant that the battle between Goddess of Heavenly Yin and Son of Heaven Yin had ended. Son of Heaven Yin didn't manage to enter Heavenly Yin World successfully and kill Goddess of Heavenly Yin.

His control over Heavenly Yin World had weakened, and that resulted in the number of starved ghosts decreasing.

Goddess of Heavenly Yin must have suppressed the other starved ghosts in Heavenly Yin World.

That outcome greatly roused Qin Mu's spirit, and he said, ”Wait here for me, I'll go into Heavenly Yin World to take a look.”

”Alright.”

Before He Yiyi could say anything, Yan Jingjing replied firmly, ”Be careful.”

Qin Mu flew towards the crack that led to Heavenly Yin World, and He Yiyi asked with a soft voice, ”Sister Jingjing, why did you let him go to such a dangerous place by himself? You are a god, wouldn't it be safer if you tag along?”

Yan Jingjing shook her head and explained, ”His abilities are extremely high, and he will be able to escape if he encounters any danger. If we follow him, we will only serve as a distraction. What's more, if we really encounter Son of Heaven Yin, even I am useless as a god.”

He Yiyi thought through her words and looked deeply into her eyes.

Qin Mu quickly moved forward through the crack in the mountain, and he only came to the boundary stone of Heavenly Yin World after a long while. He looked around and saw a tower suppressing in midair, warping the space of Heavenly Yin World with the pressure. It was like an iron ball that was pressing down on a firm mattress.

The place where the tower was suppressing no longer had any starved ghosts and countless starved ghosts shivered at the horizon from the pressure. The once dimmed sky had also cleared up, but it was still not very bright.

Qin Mu let out a sigh of relief and continued forward. He finally found the goddess that was having a headache on the seashore.

Goddess of Heavenly Yin sat there and with her palms propping up her head. She stared at the sea in utter boredom while soaking her feet in the sea water which was only able to reach up to her ankles.

She didn't have any physical clothes on her and only used streamers formed from divine lights to cover her body. It had the feeling of unruliness and wildness that an ancient god possessed.

Qin Mu walked forward and sat on the beach. He learned from her and put his feet into the sea, and a huge wave suddenly splashed over, drenching him completely.

Goddess of Heavenly Yin burst into laughter and said, ”You are too small. The fight between Son of Heaven Yin and me just now had caused the waves in the sea to become very big.”

Qin Mu grumbled and asked with a smile, ”Is goddess worrying about the starved ghosts and the darkness?”

Goddess of Heavenly Yin placed her arms down. She propped her arms behind her as she raised her head to look at the sky. ”I don't want to be alone. I want this place to be as bustling as Xuandu. Xuandu is very lively, and numerous gods have built houses on Heaven Duke's body. Many lifeforms lived on the land on Heaven Duke's body, and they have pleasant weather. Their lives are joyous and harmonious. Even Earth Count has countless ghosts living in his horns, yet I only have starved ghosts and a dark world here. The starved ghosts are silly, and they only know how to eat.”

Qin Mu pondered, and another huge wave rushed over. The youth quickly used his vital qi to defend, and only then did he not get drenched again. ”Goddess, to solve the current situation in Heavenly Yin World, we might need Heaven Duke's help.”

He explained his strategy of treating the symptoms and Goddess of Heavenly Yin shook her head. ”If we steal a sun to hang here, Shade of Heaven will become a part of Xuandu. If Heavenly Yin World ceases to exist, how am I going to be on the same standing as Heaven Duke? Won't I become his girl servant? He will definitely be unwilling if I drill a hole through his sole and I'm unwilling as well. The blood of his smelly feet will flow to my place.”

Qin Mu speechless before bursting into laughter. ”I have a Life and Death Book here, maybe goddess will be able to comprehend Son of Heaven Yin's divine arts.”

”Son of Heaven Yin's divine arts also treats the symptoms but not the root cause. It's not useful.”

Goddess of Heavenly Yin shook her head and explained, ”I want my Heavenly Yin World to have living lifeforms. Even though Son of Heaven Yin's abilities are good, he also can't solve the problem of the starved ghosts.”

Qin Mu's head was starting to ache, and he said with a smile, ”The wisdom of one man isn't enough, goddess, wait here for several days. Let me go and invite some people with extraordinary wisdom, and we just might be able to find a method to solve the problem of the starved ghosts and the black soul sand.”

Goddess of Heavenly Yin was astonished. ”There are still people that are more intelligent than you in this world?”

Qin Mu was extremely serious, and he said with a deep voice, ”Goddess is joking, of course there are people that are smarter than me. I'm very dumb, so how can I dare to praise myself for being the number one in the world? There are still one, two... uhm, four to five people that are smarter than me!”

Goddess of Heavenly Yin looked at his expression and chuckled. ”Alright, you can go find them. I would like to see the four to five people that are smarter than you.”

Qin Mu said with a smile, ”They are the pillars of Eternal Peace's reform, and there's also King Yama of Fengdu. Goddess will definitely be shocked.”

He was about to project his primordial spirit when he remembered something and moved several steps back before executing Secrets of Three Primordial Spirit Assembly.

Goddess of Heavenly Yin looked at him curiously and saw that Qin Mu's primordial spirit had already left his body and Heavenly Yin World.

'He is so reassured that the starved ghosts won't eat his body?' Goddess of Heavenly Yin chased away the starved ghosts that got attracted by the smell and thought to herself.

In Hall of Supreme Learning in Imperial College, numerous primordial spirits came from the invitation and appeared in the hall.

”What's the matter, Cult Master?” Si Yunxiang asked.

”I need to find Imperial Preceptor, Saint Woodcutter, Xu Shenghua, and First Ancestor.”

Qin Mu quickly said, ”I'll have to trouble everyone here to find them and get them to head to the broken cliff that is at the source of the Surging River, it's important. Also, get them to invite King Yama and a few strong practitioners skilled in the spells of souls when they pass by Fengdu.”

”Cult Master, don't worry, we will find them in a short while.”

Everyone kept their primordial spirits back and not long later, Qin Mu's primordial spirit returned to his corporeal body. He saw Goddess of Heavenly Yin looking at him curiously with her beautiful black eyes.

”Have you contacted them?” Goddess of Heavenly Yin was astonished when she saw him waking up so quickly.
