936 Lady Pitying a Flowers Soul (2/2)

”He merged 18 Emperor's Throne techniques despite being at the Divine Bridge Realm?”

Celestial Venerable Hao was shocked. His aptitude could be compared to the ten Celestial Venerables of the celestial heavens. He was young, too, and already at the Divine Bridge Realm, which made him weary.

”Ignore the part about realms, Qin Mu's realm isn't high either.”

Celestial Venerable Hao suppressed his shock as he laughed and said, ”This crafty Qin isn't a god either. He has only fused three or four Emperor's Throne techniques. Bring this disciple over.”

Kunwu left before bringing the divine arts practitioner with him after some time.

Celestial Venerable Hao looked at her and saw that this person was a lady. She paid her respects upon seeing Celestial Venerable Hao. ”Disciple Lian Huahun paying respects to Master.”

Celestial Venerable Hao's heart fluttered as he smiled and said, ”Rise up.”

That lady, Lian Huahun, rose up as Celestial Venerable Hao inspected her, noticing that she was extremely beautiful. He noted that if her shoulders were smaller, her clothes would be fitting, except that they would be somewhat stretched by her breasts. When he looked at her waist, he realized that she was thin there too.

Her eyes were enthralling, and one couldn't help but feel shaken when looking at her eyes.

Her sashes flew about and circled her back. At the back of her head, there was a wheel made of vital qi that floated about, untainted by a shred of aura from the mortal world.

Her appearance was remarkably similar to her mother, Mistress Yuanmu!

Celestial Venerable Hao, after careful inspection, subtly praised her after suppressing his passion. 'I have such a lady under me?'

He opened his eyes to observe in detail that the lady lacked any marks that indicated sculpting, suggesting that her body and soul were natural and not a beauty formed by creation techniques.

He was the one who employed the scheme of using a beauty to trick the ancient Celestial Emperor, so he would naturally be more cautious to prevent someone from using his own scheme against him.

Although he inherited some of the ancient Celestial Emperor's bad habits, he was still a cautious person. Many had tried the scheme of using a beauty to trick him in the past, but he always received the beauties before devouring them.

Celestial Venerable Hao observed her again and couldn't suppress his passion as he laughed and said, ”Other disciples can receive one way to kill Mu from me, while Lian Huahun can cultivate 18 of them. Help me get rid of Qin Mu. I will forge a precious artifact for each of you that will protect your consciousnesses from being stuck in that thief Qin Mu's illusion.”

The masses bowed and nodded.

Kunwu said, ”Master, it's hard to strike in the celestial heavens. Although Celestial Venerable Mu doesn't have much power here, there are many ancient gods and Celestial Venerables that are quietly protecting him.”

Celestial Venerable Hao silently thought before saying, ”Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu went to jointly explore the Great Void and discovered many pitfalls there. Celestial Venerable Huo sent a message back saying that the place is very dangerous and that the celestial heavens should send out an army to suppress it. Since we can't kill him here, we can kill him in the Great Void. Finding a reason to send him to the Great Void shouldn't be too difficult.”

Kunwu nodded.

”Kunwu, withdraw. The rest of you will stay here. I will impart to you the 18 ways to kill Mu.”

Celestial Venerable Hao's gaze fell onto these 19 people and shook when he looked at Lian Huahun. It was a recurrence of a bad habit he inherited from Celestial Emperor. However, he couldn't devour her yet, for he needed her to remove Qin Mu. All he could do was calm himself down and put in effort to impart the 18 ways to kill Mu to them.

In the Slow Winding Pavilion of the Jade Pool, Qin Mu was playing with the Grand Emperor's seal when, after a while, his consciousness flooded into it as he hollered, ”Rise!”

Pa-thud.

The imperial seal crashed onto the ground.

Qin Mu scratched his head and picked up the seal. He switched to controlling it with his vital qi and hollered, ”Rise!”

The seal floated in midair but didn't have any power. The eye in the heart of his brows opened as he attempted to use his third eye to control it, but nothing unusual occurred.

He attempted to construct the Supreme Palace Enclosure within the seal via his consciousness again. The seal shakily floated up, and as Qin Mu began to feel happy, the seal fell onto the ground again.

”This d*mn broken seal is useless!”

Qin Mu was furious and took out the core of the Primordial Tree to smash it, causing the Slow Winding Pavilion to shake so much that it almost collapsed. Yet, the seal remained unchanged. As sturdy as the core was, it couldn't damage the seal one bit.

”This thing is so tough, maybe it would be good to smack people with it.”

Qin Mu stored the seal, and Shu Jun's voice appeared in his mind as he laughed. ”How can you use the seal of Grand Emperor Ju Yushi to smack people, lowly lifeform! Give me one year's worth of your blood, essence, and consciousness, and I will teach you how to utilize it!”

To ask for one year's worth of those things now when he asked for three years' worth prior was already a great discount.

Qin Mu ignored him as he retrieved the case left behind by Celestial Venerable Yun and observed the sacrificial altar within.

Shu Jun couldn't help but feel nervous as he thought, 'Could this fellow have figured it out?'

Qin Mu closed the case, and Shu Jun finally felt relieved. Suddenly, Qin Mu said, ”Shu Jun, impart to me the other techniques of the Supreme Palace Enclosure Higher Knowledge, and I will help you restore another eye.”

Shu Jun coldly laughed. ”In your dreams! The Supreme Palace Enclosure Higher Knowledge is only one-third of the complete technique. Does it only cost one eye for me to impart everything to you? At least a brain is required! Besides, you still haven't found the master of creation in the celestial heavens for me, you still haven't fulfilled your promise!”

Qin Mu was so angry that he laughed. ”Old schemer, our deal was that I would find the master of creation for you and that you would impart the technique to cultivate consciousness. However, you only imparted one-third of it, and you have the guts to say that I didn't fulfill my promise?”

Shu Jun coldly laughed. ”I only said that I would teach you how to use the Grand Primordium Origin Stone to cultivate, not give you the complete technique. Thus, I didn't renege on my promise.”

Qin Mu was so angry that he trembled. ”You a**!”

The ball of flesh on the Origin Stone's sacrificial altar also trembled out of anger as it shouted, ”You too!”

After a while, Qin Mu smiled gleefully and suggested, ”Impart to me the full technique, and I will give you the essence, blood, and consciousness to restore your head. How does that suggestion sound?”

Shu Jun considered it before agreeing, ”Sure. I need you to cooperate earnestly with me, with no tricks by either of us!”

Qin Mu nodded, thinking, 'I will restore your head, but not your brain, ears, the other eye, mouth, teeth, or tongue. I will only restore an empty head!'
