754 Burden Lan Yutian (2/2)
Qin Mu went into a daze.
”Earth Count should know which celestial heavens won, right?” He suppressed the troubles he had in his heart and asked.
”Earth Count will never speak of it.”
Elder Messenger of Death shook his head. ”I've asked him once, and he didn't say anything. However, after that period of darkness, Earth Count became more depressed. He only does what he needs to do and rarely interferes with the matters of the outside world. I had also wanted to know which side was the victorious side, but I have never seen the face of that person on the Emperor's Throne.”
Qin Mu was slightly stunned. ”Never seen the face of that person?”
Elder Messenger of Death nodded his head, and the small boat sailed closer and closer to Earth Count. Celestial Venerable Yu, who was on the bow of the boat, opened his mouth wide in astonishment. He looked at the incomparably huge Earth Count in a daze and couldn't say a word.
”Never seen before.”
Elder Messenger of Death's face was calm, and his face was expressionless. He said calmly, ”Everyone says that the Dragon Han Era ended four hundred and fifty thousand years ago and that it was the Crimson Light Era afterward. Hehe, never did they expect that the Dragon Han never ended. The Dragon Han Era always exists!”
Qin Mu's heart started to throb.
The Dragon Han Era always exists!
Even the Dragon Han Celestial Heavens which Earth Count wasn't willing to mention and didn't breathe a word about was always around. It was like a huge shadow looming over the entire era. The Crimson Light, the High Emperor, the Founding Emperor and to the current Eternal Peace!
”That celestial heavens had many things that people can't understand.”
Elder Messenger of Death said, ”The ancient gods of the ancient gods' celestial heavens are also in that celestial heavens, the gods from the races and the half-gods are also in that celestial heavens. I really don't know who the final victor was... Let's go meet Earth Count.”
The paper boat sailed into Earth Count's third eye, and Elder Messenger of Death parked the paper boat. They came into the sacred hall inside the eye.
In the sacred hall, the Earth Count that was countless times smaller lowered his head and looked at Celestial Venerable Yu, who was carrying half a chicken. Celestial Venerable Yu was uneasy from his gaze, and he only mustered the courage to raise the half chicken over his head. ”Do you want to eat? I see that you are hungry as well...”
Earth Count's gaze flashed, and he shook his head with a sigh. ”Poor thing, the Celestial Venerable Yu from back then has turned into such a state. You have brought him here to search for that missing soul, am I right?”
Qin Mu nodded his head bowed. ”May Earth Count please cast your spell and find the location of that missing soul!”
”Back then, I blessed him, so even if you didn't ask me, I would help him.”
Earth Count opened the eyes in the heart of his brows, and a screen of light shot out from his third eye. He said solemnly, ”When I saw his corporeal body, I saw his broken soul crossing countless worlds, and the boundless worlds just flickered past in an instant.”
Celestial Venerable Yu stood in the screen of light and felt uneasy. Outside of the screen of light, worlds flashed past quickly. Majestic mountains and vast deserts flashed by. Countless stars also moved away quickly.
After a moment, the screen of light suddenly showed incomparably majestic celestial palaces, towering gods, and the celestial heavens that was forever in the day.
The celestial palaces in the light screen passed through Celestial Venerable Yu's body, and the speed became faster and faster. Suddenly, the images gradually slowed and finally stopped in front of the door to a palace.
After the image passed through the door, it passed by several pavilions and buildings, coming to an inconceivable space after passing through a few more doors. The image then broke off.
Earth Count said, ”His broken soul is suppressed in the Hall of Fragrance, and the seal in the hall is too strong, so it cut off my gaze.”
Qin Mu let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, ”As long as we know where it is, there's hope.”
Elder Messenger of Death had a grim expression. He frowned. It was apparent that the Hall of Fragrance wasn't as simple as Qin Mu had thought.
”The Hall of Fragrance is one of the seventy-two throne halls. Their arrangements are similar to the celestial palaces.”
Earth Count said indifferently, ”Even strong practitioners of the Numinous Sky Realm can't enter, much less you.”
Qin Mu said with a smile, ”There will always be a way.”
Earth Count asked, ”Do you know how to enter the celestial heavens? Do you know where is it located?”
Qin Mu was stunned.
He indeed didn't know. Other people called it the extraterritorial celestial heavens, but where this celestial heavens was, even Saint Woodcutter couldn't give an answer.
From the beginning to the end, even Saint Woodcutter didn't know who Founding Emperor Era's enemy was.
Even the consciousness of Crimson Emperor in the Qin word land didn't know who the Crimson Light Era's enemy was.
Earth Count took a look at him and said, ”You may go out first, I have things to talk to Official Sovereign about.”
Qin Mu walked out of the sacred hall and popped his head in. Suddenly, the door closed and shut him out.
”Petty and mysterious!” Qin Mu grumbled angrily, but his gaze fell on Elder Messenger of Death's paper boat involuntarily.
In the sacred hall, Earth Count looked at Elder Messenger of Death. ”His broken soul can't be retrieved for now, what do you plan to do?”
Elder Messenger of Death was silent for a moment. ”He is my second kin, I need to protect him.”
”He is like white paper now.”
Earth Count said, ”Furthermore, he is a silly white paper. If he follows you, he will become a shut-in like you, and he will die miserably once he walks out of Youdu. The reason why you could live on for all these years is that you are always in Youdu. If you go out, you would have long died. If he follows you, he will end up like you.”
Elder Messenger of Death looked silently at Celestial Venerable Yu who was licking the grease off his fingers. After a moment, he raised his head. ”I've thought through it, and I'm indeed not suitable to bring him along. I'm thinking of entrusting him to Celestial Venerable Mu.”
Earth Count said, ”To him? Aren't you afraid of him leading Celestial Venerable Yu astray?”
”But at least Celestial Venerable Yu won't die.”
Elder Messenger of Death said, ”What I'm worried about is Celestial Venerable Mu not being willing to bring him along. Even though he was warmhearted in saving Celestial Venerable Yu and took revenge for him with a burning passion, he definitely won't want to take care of Celestial Venerable Yu.”
Earth Count smirked. ”He will have no choice but to do it. Now, he is taking your small boat into the deepest parts of Youdu, sneaking in to visit his mother. He is about to commit a grave mistake, and with this mistake, he will have no choice but to bring along this burden Celestial Venerable Yu.”
Elder Messenger of Death was stunned, and he praised, ”Earth Count is wise.”
