897 Eternal Peace Overlord Body Qin, Dragon Han Celestial Venerable Mu (2/2)
The dragon qilin quickly stopped. Vital qi picked up Qin Mu, who was sleeping soundly, and placed him on the ground. Within the dream world that was circling around him, there were mountains and seas of corpses. Countless dainty Qin Mus had died—a tragic scene indeed.
However, the rest of the mini Qin Mus were cheering excitedly, throwing a little fellow high into the air. That dainty Qin Mu's face was filled with pride as he allowed himself to be thrown by the numerous Qin Mus beneath him, delight and satisfaction swelling in his heart.
Suddenly, all of the dainty Qin Mus panicked and scattered in four directions. The one dainty Qin Mu that had established merit earlier had no one to catch him when he fell, so he landed with a thud onto the ground and stood up angrily. ”Ji ji gu gu!”
These mini Qin Mus ran around frantically like headless flies, crying and wailing before they suddenly disappeared. The mini Qin Mu that established merit earlier also panicked and ran around madly. All of a sudden, he fell prone on the wall of the dream world, thumping it with both fists as he cried and pleaded the outside Yan'er for help.
Yan'er couldn't help but save him. However, as she reached out, the dream world dissipated with a ”bo” sound. All of the dainty Qin Mus were gone.
Qin Mu opened his eyes and sat up, making himself comfortable. He smiled as he said, ”I experienced countless calamities in my sleep. Finally, I have completed my technique.”
Yan'er was still feeling pity for the dream world's dainty Qin Mu and was depressed. She showed her displeasure to Qin Mu and said, ”After you woke up, those pitiful dainties died. Don't ever think about me feeding you again!”
Qin Mu executed his new technique without the worry of qi deviation. His vital qi was extremely smooth, and his newly born soul was constantly growing and becoming stronger, making him very happy.
Upon seeing him in a good mood, the dragon qilin asked, ”Cult Master, are you able to impart your technique to others?”
Qin Mu shook his head. ”It's too difficult. To reach where I am, I walked the path that is most suitable for me. If one wants to master my technique, they have to cultivate until the Celestial River Realm and study the unchanging divine art. In addition, they need to be proficient in algebra and the art of creation. Not only that, they have to master Brahma Buddha's Boundless Calamity Sutra, and their attainments in the Martial Dao and Sword Dao have to surpass ordinary men. All in all, no one is able to master my technique.”
The dragon qilin quietly heaved a sigh of pity.
”However, the technique created by Celestial Venerable Yu is more suitable for the masses.”
Qin Mu said, ”Except that the requirements to comprehend it are rather high, so it would be difficult to promote and popularize. Have we reached the Surging River?”
The dragon qilin said, ”Surging River Academy is just up ahead.”
They arrived at Surging River Academy and saw that it had long been taken over by the gods of the celestial heavens. They were carrying out large scale construction and building luxurious palaces, and many dragon gods and gods from the river had been captured as slaves and were being made to work laboriously.
They had already built a magnificent sprawling god city. When Qin Mu arrived, the slaves were using their blood to imprint formations on the god city's surfaces. The palaces within the city, with the blessings of the formations, rose towards the sky.
These divine palaces and throne halls were restrained by chains, as they would fly off into the sky otherwise.
After the entire city was in the sky, it would be stable, becoming an important artifact of the celestial heavens' rule here.
The Surging River was the celestial river, and it was plentiful in natural resources and very important to the Primordial Realm.
The ancient Celestial Emperor, who ruled the Primordial Realm, naturally placed a lot of importance on the Surging River, which was why he had sent a massive military force here.
Qin Mu saw Dragon Rearing Sovereign within the god city. This fellow actually became the head of a small group supervising the dragon gods and river gods, and he was currently performing his duties.
”Dragon Rearing Sovereign!”
The dragon qilin shouted, ”Cult Master is looking for you!”
Dragon Rearing Sovereign heard him and turned his head. Upon seeing Qin Mu, he frantically ran over and greeted him, looking uneasy.
Qin Mu laughed. ”There's no need to worry. If you had betrayed me, you would have died miserably already. You submitted to the celestial heavens only to protect your life. Dragon Rearing Sovereign, how did you manage to survive?”
Dragon Rearing Sovereign had made a Pact of Little Earth Count with him, so he was heavily monitored by Qin Fengqing, who long viewed him as a food ingredient. If Dragon Rearing Sovereign betrayed him, he would be eaten by Qin Fengqing.
If Qin Fengqing hadn't eaten him, that meant Dragon Rearing Sovereign hadn't betrayed him.
Even though Qin Mu didn't trust his older brother's character much, he trusted his appetite.
Dragon Rearing Sovereign let out a sigh of relief and said, ”When the great army of the celestial heavens attacked here, I led the dragon gods of the river to surrender. Many dragon gods planned to betray My Lord but died on the spot, inexplicably becoming corpses. Although I surrendered, I didn't dare to betray My Lord. The great army of the celestial heavens saw a use for me and spared my life, allowing me to supervise the building of the god city.
Qin Mu asked, ”Which god is guarding the Surging River?”
”The disciple of Green Deity of the Eastern Sky, Revered God Wu Ji.”
Dragon Rearing Sovereign said, ”Green Deity of the Eastern Sky left the Primordial Realm and returned to the Eastern Sky after sweeping through and quelling the various races of half-gods, leaving Revered God Wu Ji to take care of things here. My Lord, please leave quickly. There are many here who are from the celestial heavens, a mix of good people and scumbags. Some have asked me about you, and their words were unpleasant.”
Qin Mu nodded his head lightly and smiled. ”I have long heard that there are people within the celestial heavens who want to deal with me—Celestial Venerable Mu—and I am already prepared. There's no need to worry.”
As he was speaking, they heard a cheerful voice. There was someone in one of the huge halls in the half-finished god city above them. He laughed and said, ”Celestial Venerable Mu has traveled here from afar, and yet I failed to welcome you. Pardon me, pardon me! Celestial Venerable Mu, please come up for a chat.”
Dragon Rearing Sovereign's expression changed slightly, signaling Qin Mu to quickly leave. Qin Mu laughed. ”It's fine. There are many who want to kill me. If I try to hide everywhere I go, how long will I have to hide? You can fall back first.”
Dragon Rearing Sovereign planned to persuade him further. However, Qin Mu laughed ambiguously. ”Even if Green Deity of the Eastern Sky were here, he would have to show me some respect, not to mention his disciple.”
Dragon Rearing Sovereign said, ”My Lord, the lackeys are even more difficult to deal with! The gods of the celestial heavens bear ill intentions, so why subject yourself to unnecessary humiliation? That Revered God Wu Ji isn't anything good…”
Qin Mu waved his hand and stood on the head of the dragon qilin, flying towards the throne hall in the sky.
In front of the throne hall, Revered God Wu Jii, with a group of gods and a young and beautiful contingent, came forward to welcome them. He laughed. ”Eternal Peace Overlord Body Qin, Dragon Han Celestial Venerable Mu, one of the three heroes of the reform. Even if my teacher were here, he would also have to greet you with respect.”
He bowed and greeted Qin Mu before glancing at the gods of the celestial heavens flanking him. He couldn't help but fly into a rage, shouting, ”You have seen Celestial Venerable Mu, why are you not greeting him?”
One god laughed coldly and said, ”Overlord Body? Celestial Venerable Mu? He's just a useless person, not worthy of a celestial god like me greeting him.”
Revered God Wu Ji was incensed and scolded him repeatedly, apologizing to Qin Mu, ”Celestial Venerable Mu, these scum don't know better. I hope a magnanimous man like you won't take it to heart. Please, come inside.”
Qin Mu got off of the dragon qilin's head and stood in front of him, smiling faintly. ”It's fine. After you, please.”
