1134 Celestial Venerable Mu Tries to Hack Open the Ancient God Egg (1/2)
In the potted plant world, Qin Mu entered his dream again and again. He experienced countless failures, but he also gradually made progress in Celestial Venerable Ling's unchanging substance divine art.
The divine art became more and more complete.
It was already very hard to learn the divine art, which made it clear how heaven-defying it was for Celestial Venerable Ling to comprehend it!
That was why Celestial Venerable Yu said that Celestial Venerable Ling had the highest aptitude and comprehension and that he was nothing compared to her.
Yet, Qin Mu found an even harsher truth. That truth was that he would become unchanging substance after completely deploying the unchanging substance divine art!
In other words, using it would lead to a terrifying outcome. He would be assimilated by it to become unchanging substance, a form that he could never escape from!
He entered his dream again and again and tried again and again. However, the results were the same every time. The Qin Mus in his dream would become unchanging substance, a bunch of fog!
Celestial Venerable Ling was the fog on the Surging River. After deploying the divine art, she assimilated to form the unchanging substance. She herself was trapped in it too, without any chance of escape!
Of course, when she became unchanging substance, she dragged the Grand Emperor's reincarnation, the eleventh Celestial Venerable, Ming Fangyu, into it.
Celestial Venerable Ming Fangyu was using the real Celestial Emperor corporeal body then, which spurred the ten Celestial Venerables to use the creation divine weapon to create another Celestial Emperor to continue their rule.
The most terrifying thing about this divine art wasn't how many people it trapped, but how one couldn't escape from being unchanging substance after using it. Even Ming Fangyu and the ancient Celestial Emperor's corporeal body couldn't break out of it and the reincarnation cycles forced onto them!
That was the case for Qin Mu in the dream. He deployed the divine art again and again, and he was assimilated again and again.
The little Qin Mus of his dream became fog and were forever lost in it.
He wanted to find a way out for Celestial Venerable Ling, yet that was the case every time, with no exceptions!
That meant that if Qin Mu completely deployed it, he would become unchanging substance too and end up like Celestial Venerable Ling!
However, he had other discoveries too. If he used part of it, he wouldn't be assimilated. That was why Celestial Venerable Ling used the ghost ship to exile the Feathered Forest Guards before she perfected the divine art.
Finally, Qin Mu stopped dreaming. Instead, he took out the five Dao runes he comprehended from the egg of Tai Shi.
Qin Mu calmed himself down. He figuratively experienced thousands of years of traveling in his dream. It was an illusion caused by changes in substances in his dream.
The five runes were Tai Shi's Great Dao runes that he comprehended from its egg. Wei Suifeng tried to hack Tai Shi's egg, which caused it to give out infinite amounts of Dao light that broke the ghost ship temporarily. This allowed it to temporarily escape from the unchanging substance before sinking back in again.
It was then that Qin Mu knew that the Dao of Tai Shi was the solution to the unchanging substance divine art.
He needed Celestial Venerable Ling's divine art to verify whether the five Dao runes he comprehended from Tai Shi's egg were correct.
He meticulously set down the runes Celestial Venerable Ling's divine art needed. He was surrounded by weird runes that his vital qi created. They flickered and hid mysterious power.
Qin Mu was careful. He couldn't allow those runes to form the unchanging substance divine art, for he would be stuck in it and become unchanging substance.
He carefully put together the unchanging substance divine art runes to form divine art parts that came into contact with the five runes to test the reactions between them.
'This rune is wrong.'
'This rune is wrong too!'
'This isn't correct either…'
