795 The Final Victor (1/2)
Qin Mu went into a daze.
One was the peerless beauty Jue Wuchen, who was born in Mother Earth's Primordial Realm.
One was the leader of the half-gods, the celestial emperor of the half-god celestial heavens, Celestial Venerable Hao.
One was the leader of the lifeforms after the beginning, the leader of the Heaven Alliance, the celestial emperor of the human celestial heavens, Celestial Venerable Yun.
When Celestial Emperor was at his most invincible, it was also the moment where the half-gods and the humans were fighting at their worst, that was when they laid out a trap for Celestial Emperor.
The image of Heaven Duke, Earth Count, and Mother Earth wasn't too brilliant here.
What was even more chilling was that Celestial Emperor's reincarnation was supposed to be a secret, yet it was known!
The thing that terrified Qin Mu the most was still the alliance of Celestial Venerable Yun and Celestial Venerable Hao, the two archnemeses.
Their alliance was the most impossible thing to happen, and both sides had deep grudges, so how could they just set the grudge aside and deal with Celestial Emperor together?
The grudge between the lifeforms and the half-gods was the grudge between the predator and the prey, the grudge between the master and the slave.
With both sides rising and fighting each other, the grudge would only grow deeper and deeper.
Other than the grudge of the races, the deep grudge between Celestial Venerable Yun and Celestial Venerable Hao had also stemmed from the murder of Celestial Venerable Yu. According to logic, Celestial Venerable Yun would never ally himself with Celestial Venerable Hao.
Yet these incidents that seemed impossible happened.
What terrified Qin Mu the most was that they seemed to have planned ahead of time and had worked together long ago. The so-called struggle between the half-gods and the lifeforms was merely a show for Celestial Emperor, to let him put down his guard against them.
And in this period, exactly how many lifeforms and half-gods had died?
The lives that were lost were probably immeasurable!
On both sides of the corpse mountain and blood sea were Celestial Venerable Yun and Celestial Venerable Hao's faces, faces without any warmth or emotion.
'Both of them are terrifying...'
Qin Mu shuddered and calmed his mind down.
Heaven Duke's voice rang out. ”... In that battle, Celestial Emperor died and was turned into dust by them. I don't know why Mother Earth had to do that, and I also don't know if she made a move. At that point in time, we all had our selfishness. Hehe, ancient gods being impartial is merely how ordinary beings falsely praise us. We, the ancient gods, aren't as honorable as you think. Son of Qin, after knowing how we, the ancient gods, handle matters, you should be wary of us.”
Qin Mu let out a shaky breath, and he muttered, ”No wonder, no wonder Yan Qiling told me to be careful of the Heaven Alliance, to be wary of Heaven Duke and Earth Count, to be on guard against Mother Earth, so this is the reason...”
He finally understood.
Behind Yan Qiling was Celestial Emperor, and the death of Celestial Emperor was partially due to Heaven Duke, Earth Count, and Mother Earth for just looking and not doing anything. The Heaven Alliance was the one who laid their hands on Celestial Emperor directly.
”In that case, if Mother Earth said she died under the Heaven Alliance's hands, why did her Primordial Tree land in the hands of Celestial Emperor?” Qin Mu was puzzled.
Suddenly, Heaven Duke continued to say, ”After Celestial Emperor died, something strange happened, and this incident is why I don't know who the final victor was among the three celestial heavens.”
Qin Mu hurriedly asked, ”What incident?”
Heaven Duke said, ”After Celestial Emperor died, Celestial Venerable Yun and Celestial Venerable Hao rushed straight for the celestial heavens, and their speed was extremely fast. At that point in time, their cultivation was extremely extraordinary, but what puzzled me was Celestial Venerable Yun had transformed into Celestial Venerable Hao's appearance. Both of them seemed to be rushing with all their power, trying to reach the celestial heavens before the other person did. I only understood what they were doing later...”
His gaze was strange, and he said with a low voice, ”They were rushing to seize Celestial Emperor's corporeal body?”
Qin Mu's body trembled violently.
”The news of Celestial Emperor's death was never released, and even though Celestial Emperor is dead, the Celestial Emperor in the celestial heavens is still alive.”
Heaven Duke's gaze was slightly blank. ”Celestial Venerable Yun and Celestial Venerable Hao rushed towards the celestial heavens as fast as lightning in order to control Celestial Emperor's corporeal body. By controlling his body, they would possess the authority and awe of Celestial Emperor. In that case, it would naturally be easy to suppress the other party. Try to think about this, is there an easier way to seize power? However, I didn't see who reached Celestial Emperor's corporeal body.”
Qin Mu was dumb like a wood chicken. After a moment, he asked, ”Celestial Venerable Yun transformed into Celestial Venerable Hao's appearance? How did he transform?”
Heaven Duke didn't reply.
Brahma Buddha sighed, and this old buddha had a worried frown. ”I taught it to him. He is the leader of the human race, the leader of the Heaven Alliance. He wanted to boost the confidence of the human race and wanted to transform into Celestial Venerable Mu and Celestial Venerable Qin, who had vanished. He came to find me, and I was naturally happy to teach it to him. Back then, the human race was very miserable...”
Qin Mu pondered for a moment and suddenly asked, ”In that case, is Celestial Venerable Yun truly a human?”
Brahma Buddha was stunned and understood what he meant. He shook his head and said, ”I don't know.”
Qin Mu looked at Heaven Duke, and Heaven Duke also shook his head. ”I also don't know if he's a human or a half-god, he always had the appearance of a human. However...”
He paused for a moment and said, ”Celestial Venerable Hao always had the appearance of a human as well.”
The surroundings were silent.
Heaven Duke said, ”I only know that on the Emperor's Throne of the Dragon Han Celestial Heavens, that Celestial Emperor sitting there is no longer the true Celestial Emperor. However, I don't know which one of them is now sitting there. That is because, after that, more and more changes happened, and afterward, the Heaven Han Celestial Heavens was eradicated. It didn't take long for the Dragon Heaven Celestial Heavens to follow its footsteps and get destroyed. Afterward, the ancient celestial heavens rose higher and higher, moving far away from Yuandu, which had become the Great Ruins after the huge battle, all the way until Crimson Emperor rose to power from the ruins of Yuandu...”
Crimson Emperor was slightly in a daze. ”Back then, the Great Ruins was in chaos, and it was extremely dangerous. I had also escaped numerous times from death. I liked to roam around when I was young, so I found many ruins of both celestial heavens. One day, I found a god statue with three heads and six arms, but the face had already been blurred. I suddenly had an inspiration and sat down under the stone statue for a long time. Finally, I comprehended my own path.”
Qin Mu's mind was blown, and he asked, ”Is it my stone statue?”
