806 Celestial River Dragon King (2/2)
Duke Wei remained standing on the clock tower but his primordial spirit came down to welcome everyone. He lowered his voice and asked, ”Cult Master is from the capital city? How is capital city doing?”
”Capital city is doing fine.”
Qin Mu asked puzzled, ”Heavenly King Wei doesn't know about the news of the capital city? Didn't Imperial Preceptor forge dozens of teleportation gates?”
Duke Wei sighed and said, ”This teleportation formation consumes huge amount of medicinal stones every time it is activated, who would use it unless it's in time of crisis? Now that the trade routes are basically cut off, if we had to send someone to the capital city, divine arts practitioners would have to take one to two years to travel to and fro for news. Gods also can't leave, thus the news from the capital city is very hard to reach here. In these two years, divine arts practitioners have been searching for people lost outside, protecting them to Bazhou. There are numerous people injured and we don't have extra hands to go to the capital city for news.”
Qin Mu frowned and he looked at the people in the city. Their clothes were all tattered and they all looked emaciated.
”We have opened up several fields outside the city and as long as we tide through this period, not many people will die once the ration is handed down.”
Duke Wei said, ”However, there are half-gods coming out these few days and they had told us to send up offerings.”
Qin Mu frowned, ”Offerings? Offerings to who?”
”Offerings to half-gods.”
Duke Wei said, ”Otherwise, they will descend disaster on us. There are a few strong existences among the half-gods and they had built a god country on the mountain. They requested us to give offerings and surrender to become their people.”
Qin Mu said, ”The emperor currently doesn't have the energy or the manpower so we can only drag things out. Heavenly King Wei can temporarily give them offerings and wait until the power of the emperor reaches here before making another decision...”
”The offerings are virgin boys and girls,” Duke Wei suddenly said.
Qin Mu didn't say another word.
After a moment, he took out a small case and taught Duke Wei how to use it. ”This is God Execution Knife of Crimson Light Era, heavenly king can borrow this divine knife to tide over this period of time first. This divine knife will have to drink blood the moment it's out of its sheath so be utterly careful when using it.”
They left Bazhou City.
Qin Mu turned around to look at Bazhou in the night scenery and he sighed.
There was only God Execution Mysterious Knife but there were numerous cities, he could protect Bazhou with God Execution Mysterious Knife but he couldn't protect the other cities.
'How should Eternal Peace resolve the current crisis?' He had also sunk into deep thoughts.
The people of Eternal Peace Empire were worrying about how to solve the current crisis. Now, Mother Earth still has not made a move and it was only those half-gods that were scattered throughout the world. Just them was enough to sink Eternal Peace Empire into a crisis.
Several days later, they came to Heavenly Saint Academy and there were numerous towns around Heavenly Saint Academy. The disciples of the academy had got many people to immigrate over.
The academy was still fine. Apothecary had poisoned a half-god to death and he was currently researching the body structure of the half-god.
That half-god was very strong and after he died, there was still a remaining aura and his corporeal body piled up like a mountain.
”Maha maha maha!” A bunch of flood dragons cried out and swayed their heads and tails as they waited to eat meat.
”It's poisoned!” The scholars chased them away.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
”Mu'er, you don't have to be concerned about Heavenly Saint Academy's safety, the half-gods in the surroundings are basically wiped out, those they aren't have moved away.”
Apothecary wiped the blood off his hands and said to everyone, ”We have planted many medicinal fields so we have no need to worry about our herbs. Our teleportation formation can also be open to establish access to the capital city. Our teleportation gate can also contact the other academies to support one another so there's no need to worry. You can head to Surging River, do you need to use the teleportation formation?”
”There's no need, save the medicinal stones.”
Qin Mu bade farewell to him and hurried on the journey with the human emperors.
Another six to seven days later, they came to Surging River Academy of Lizhou Prefecture. He paid respects to Yuyuan Chuyu and Su Yunqing. Only then did Qin Mu came to the side of Surging River and looking out to the other side, the surface of the river was a thousand miles. Divine mountains stood tall like a forest on both sides of the divine mountains and it was truly majestic!
”This wasn't the widest place in Surging River. The widest place in Surging River is about five thousand miles.”
Yuyuan Chuyu has already cultivated to her celestial palace and she said to Qin Mu, ”There are numerous half-gods in Surging River and all kinds of Dragon King Manor with countless treasures. Dragon Rearing Sovereign even got injured a while ago and it seemed that he was being beaten by the half-gods. He came to seek help here and it was Su Yunqing that had treated him.”
Qin Mu was stunned and said, ”Dragon Rearing Sovereign isn't having it easy too... Is that mountain on the opposite shore Hundred Years Mountain?”
He pointed at the opposite shore and there was a majestic mountain that could be seen clearly even at a thousand miles away. It was extraordinary and majestic.
”No.”
Yuyuan Chuyu said, ”Hundred Years Mountain is beside Deer County, just a small mound which can't be seen from here. That mountain had suddenly popped out and there are numerous half-gods on the mountain. Bai Xi fought them to protect Deer County.”
Qin Mu scratched his head and said, ”Bai Xi has suffered. I shall take down that mountain in the next few days and change the name to Hundred Years Mountain. I'll make him the mountain god there.”
Right at this moment, waves surged on the surface of Surging River and Dragon Rearing Sovereign's huge head break through the surface. When he saw Qin Mu, he choked on his tears and said, ”Cult Master Qin, you are finally here! I don't want to be this dragon king anymore, can we change the Pact of Earth Count?”
Qin Mu said with a smile, ”Alright. How about changing you to be Celestial River Dragon King?”
