942 The Strongest Corporeal Body in History (1/2)
Wei Suifeng's divine art stretched for a frightening distance, thousands of miles. This wasn't a divine art that Wei Suifeng could deploy with his capabilities. Although his abilities were great, they weren't great enough to do this.
If that was the case, then there must be a way to make use of the Great Void to strengthen one's divine arts!
And, Wei Suifeng had found it!
This way might only be viable in the Great Void, for only it had such a pure and masterless consciousness.
'Maybe Wei Suifeng hid the method within the divine art, using the order and positions of the stars to convey a message…'
Qin Mu glared at the stars, observed each star's route, and calculated rapidly. Disappointingly, there was no message in Wei Suifeng's divine art, for it was just that.
'The direction of this galaxy…'
Qin Mu was stunned. This galaxy resembled an arrow that pointed towards the depths of the Great Void.
This divine art was likely Wei Suifeng's way of marking out directions.
The boat was following the direction pointed out by the galaxy. It was clear that the celestial heavens knew about the use of Wei Suifeng's divine art as well.
Yun Chuxiu saw that he was sizing up the galaxy and smiled. ”This divine art was left behind by Emperor of Endless Clouds when he was exploring the Great Void. You should know him, he's a powerful person who created a great deal of chaos in the celestial heavens.”
Qin Mu nodded and said, ”Emperor of Endless Clouds, Wei Suifeng, is my brother.”
”In the past 20 thousand years, no Emperor's Throne Realm beings have been born. He's the only one who reached that realm via cultivation. Thus, the celestial heavens valued him highly and appointed him as the Great Deity of Endless Clouds Palace. He controlled the entire area of the Endless Clouds, which included 256 heavens and thousands of star regions that belonged to the Endless Clouds.”
Yun Chuxiu continued, ”However, the celestial heavens later checked his origins and found that he faked both it and his name. He even tampered with Black Deity, Son of Heaven Yin's Life and Death Book. Not only did he tamper with the celestial heavens' Life and Death Book but also that of Youdu Earth Count. He tampered with all nine of the Life and Death Books! How daring!”
Qin Mu laughed. ”My brother is indeed daring to the point of recklessness.”
”As long as the celestial heavens wants to discover a person's origin, it can do so regardless of the person. Yet, he put so much effort into faking it. He once went to Son of Heaven Yin to become his disciple for a few hundred years! Son of Heaven Yin valued him highly, and he became his proudest disciple and was tasked with great responsibilities. Later on, he faked his death to escape, which made Son of Heaven Yin sad for quite some time.”
Yun Chuxiu continued, ”When the celestial heavens continued their investigation, they made another startling discovery. Not only had he gone to Mingdu, but he also went to the sects of Red Deity, White Deity, and Green Deity. He even went to the sects of several Celestial Venerables and that of Heaven Duke to become a brother of Great Sun Sovereign! Every time, his name and face changed. He never used his true name or face and snuck around for a few hundred years by faking his death!”
Qin Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He did know that Wei Suifeng once snuck into Mingdu and left behind a topographic map of Mingdu's great prison. Saint Woodcutter used this map to sneak into Mingdu and rescue Di Yiyue.
”The celestial heavens felt that he was someone worth grooming and wanted to give him great responsibilities as long as he hadn't committed any great evils. Thus, they checked his origins and finally found out that he came from the ruins of the Founding Emperor Era and that he was one of its immigrants! The celestial heavens was thus scared of him.”
Yun Chuxiu continued, ”Then, those immigrants numbered tens of millions, and their skills and divine arts could no longer be inherited because they were broken. Even their divine bridges were broken. They were abandoned people of the gods and had no future. Yet, it was from this mud pit of a state that someone at the Emperor's Throne level emerged. The celestial heavens was shocked and felt that it was serious. Thus, they arrested and suppressed him. However, he was a capable man who did a lot for the celestial heavens, such as the exploration of the Great Void in which he explored the deepest.”
In front of the boat, another galaxy appeared to guide them.
”He went further than even Celestial Venerables and left behind these galaxies and some void fortresses to help us discover our position in the Great Void.”
Yun Chuxiu admirably said, ”Celestial Venerable Mu, you two are geniuses.”
Qin Mu shook his head and said, ”Big Brother is indeed a genius. I, however, am not.”
”Hypocrites. Although he caused a huge ruckus and was discovered, arrested, and suppressed by the celestial heavens, he still did no harm to the celestial heavens.”
Yun Chuxiu smiled and said, ”You're different. You entered the celestial heavens openly and caused it to fracture. Even the ten Celestial Venerables are split apart by you. The peace in the celestial heavens won't last long. Even so, the celestial heavens can't touch you while you have so many people swearing to protect you. This is where you are smarter than him. Your brother's way of doing things pales in comparison to yours.”
Qin Mu smiled.
The boat continued, and after a long while, real stars suddenly appeared in front of them.
Those should be the stars created by masters of creation. Within those stars, five of them were connected by chains, and in the center of the chains was a giant fortress that mimicked a giant war machine.
Around the fortress, fresh blood and corpses floated about, suggesting that the area had experienced many conflicts.
From the fortress, gods appeared to verify the identity of those on the boat and to invite them inside for some rest.
Because of the battle caused by Luo Wushuang's heart devils, many on the boat had died. Out of the 300, only 260 people were left, with a lot of them being injured.
Qin Mu entered the fortress and looked down, noticing that the gods and devils that were stationed there had numb expressions. On their bodies, there were scars created by healed injuries, which were akin to red centipedes crawling on their skin.
These gods and devils usually had three heads and six arms and were holding various weapons. However, they seemed to lack emotions and had soulless eyes.
'What happened to them?' He wondered.
”They have lost their emotions and feelings.”
Yun Chuxiu smiled. ”They are prisoners of the celestial heavens who had their feelings taken away from them. All that's left of them is their fighting capabilities. When the celestial heavens discovered the Great Void, they suffered great casualties. So, they thought about recycling trash and sent prisoners here to guard the void fortresses so that the celestial heavens could set up a foothold. Since they lack any feelings and are a bunch of walking meatbags, they don't spawn heart devils.”
Qin Mu looked at these gods and devils and asked, ”Are they people from the Crimson Light Era?”
Yun Chuxiu called on a Daoist and said, ”This is Celestial Venerable Mu, who is here for Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu. Please fetch that big guy from the void fortress.”
That Daoist should still have his emotions and feelings. He was still clear-headed and was in charge of the fortress' safety and controlling the prisoners from the Crimson Light Era.
The Daoist looked at Qin Mu and wondered why his cultivation was so low. Nevertheless, he paid his respects and said, ”Please wait, Celestial Venerable.”
He shouted, and within that shout, there was a marvelous rhythm. It should be a Dao sound used to control the precious artifacts.
Suddenly, violent vibrations came from outside the void fortress. Qin Mu looked towards the sound and saw a god larger than the fortress itself stand up and raise its head, which left him dumbstruck!
That large god had three heads and six arms. He was expressionless and looked in three different directions with his three heads!
Around him was a god writing chain, which was materialized by his vital qi. The chain shone with wavering rune lights that rotated around his large body!
The runes crisscrossed, and soon, the area they covered grew to encompass the entire void fortress.
This was a strong practitioner of the Emperor's Throne!
His cultivation reached the peak of the Emperor's Throne Realm!
Qin Mu looked at the rune lights on those chains and found them familiar. It was as if they were the runes of the Anasrava Creation Mysterious Scripture. He couldn't help but ask, ”Who is he? Is he a Great Deity from the Crimson Light Era?”
