955 An Old Friend in His Eyes (2/2)
Qin Mu's heart trembled before settling down to look for Celestial Venerable Xu. However, he failed to find her.
He was slightly stunned. Just now, Yue Tingge said that he lured the two Celestial Venerables there to die. That being the case, why did he only see Celestial Venerable Huo and not Celestial Venerable Xu?
At that moment, he noticed a strange thing. Celestial Venerable Huo was moving!
It was just that Celestial Venerable Huo was moving too slowly for Qin Mu and the others to notice, to the point that their hair stood up.
Yue Tingge and the others had already been peculiarly morphed into small light spots, yet Qin Mu's third eye hadn't. It had an extremely strong observational power, such that he could observe the most minute of changes!
He noticed that the flame markings around Celestial Venerable Huo contained fire runes within them that were being replaced extremely slowly.
This meant that Celestial Venerable Huo was changing his protective rune!
In that case, Celestial Venerable Huo didn't die here.
Qin Mu calculated, and according to the rate by which he was replacing his runes, it would take him at least 256 years to complete one divine art move!
'Celestial Venerable Huo is flying towards the heart of the Grand Emperor's brows. Could there be something there that's attracting him?'
Qin Mu thought about that and instantly gathered his consciousness and utilized his Grand Primordium Origin Stone. He moved all of his vital qi and consciousness to shape the Three Enclosures Higher Knowledge.
Boom!
His third eye grew brighter and brighter, observing nearly everything clearly, including all of the flame runes on Celestial Venerable Huo!
He looked into the hole in the heart of Grand Emperor Ju Yushi's brows. There was no Grand Primordium Origin Stone. Instead, there was a hexagon-shaped wound that spewed out blazing flames.
The flames were extremely dense, and one could see an indistinct figure sitting inside!
Qin Mu's heart shook, and suddenly, vital qi picked up the light spot that Shu Jun had morphed into. Shu Jun was shocked, and in the next moment, he was forced into the third eye, back onto the sacrificial altar in the Grand Primordium Origin Stone.
”Shu Jun, lend me all of your consciousness so I can see who's inside the heart of the Grand Emperor's brows!”
Qin Mu's voice came, and Shu Jun shuddered. He cried out in astonishment, ”There's someone in the heart of his brows?”
He immediately transferred his consciousness, lending it to Qin Mu. Qin Mu's consciousness rose dramatically, and the power of his third eye rose again. His eye's power became a light beam that was ten thousand miles long, which shone on the heart of Grand Emperor Ju Yushi's brows.
That light went through layer after layer of blazing flames before gradually arriving in front of that figure.
”Shu Jun, lend me more consciousness!” Qin Mu felt fatigued and hollered hurriedly.
Shu Jun hesitated. The consciousness he lent to Qin Mu just now was only part of his power. After all, he didn't fully trust Qin Mu.
”Lend it to me now, and I'll help you recover an ear!” Qin Mu said.
Shu Jun gave a cold humph and said, ”I want two ears!”
”Ok!” Qin Mu immediately agreed to it.
Shu Jun saw how fast he agreed to it and felt regretful. 'If I had asked for a tongue, this fellow probably would have agreed to it…'
Although he thought that, he gathered his remaining consciousness and lent it to Qin Mu.
The light in Qin Mu's third eye grew ever more intense and broke the final flame, shining on the person sitting in the heart of the Grand Emperor's brows.
Suddenly, Qin Mu's heart shuddered. The light was instantly dispersed, and he retracted it instinctively.
The rolling consciousness and vital qi currents rushed to his brain and knocked him muddle-headed. His essence and blood floated in stillness.
Shu Jun immediately recalled his consciousness. ”Brat, remember your promise of two ears. Don't break it! By the way, what did you see?”
Qin Mu calmed himself down and mumbled, ”Celestial Venerable Yun… I saw Celestial Venerable Yun!”
Shu Jun didn't know who Celestial Venerable Yun was, yet the sight of him stirred huge waves in Qin Mu's heart. The still figure he saw in the heart of Grand Emperor Ju Yushi's brows was Celestial Venerable Yun. He couldn't have been mistaken!
He met Celestial Venerable Yun at the Jade Pool Meeting. He was an extremely handsome and talented youth. Although the man that sat in the heart of the Grand Emperor's brows was a middle-aged man whose face gave off a royal quality and solemnity, one could still see the charm the person had when he was young!
That was no doubt Celestial Venerable Yun!
His heart was still confused. 'Why would Celestial Venerable Yun's corporeal body be there? Oh yeah, Celestial Venerable Yun left behind a sacrificial altar with the Grand Emperor's imperial seal on it, which belonged to Grand Emperor Ju Yushi!'
He retrieved the seal, and it flew out of his third eye. The seal immediately established a connection with the power of this place after being retrieved, and terrifying power burst forth from it!
Boom—
Thousands of divine lights spewed forth on the lotus landmass and flooded towards the imperial seal. The warped energy shook the space around it and allowed him to come out of being a light spot!
He and the others recovered their corporeal bodies quickly as they looked at that floating seal suspiciously.
