Chapter 1174 – Tian Shu’s intoxication

The grey fog of Fengdu filled the air. In front of him was a sea of fog and the littered mountains of skeletons. The mountains of skeletons were blended within the sea of fog, and some skeletons were still crawling around

Qin Mu took out a Fengdu gold coin and planned to summon Daoist Ling Jing to cross the sea of fog. However, he was suddenly stunned.

During the Eternal Peace Calamity, Daoist Ling Jing’s soul had already dispersed.

This Daoist was a strong practitioner from Village Chief’s era and had a very stubborn temper. He had once challenged Village Chief to seize the title of Sword God.

Later on, when High Heavens invaded, he and the young patriarch, Wen Yuan, intercepted the gods of High Heavens to buy time for Village Chief and the rest. As a result, their bodies and Dao vanished, and they became ghosts in Fengdu.

King Yama gave him the identity of a ferryman, allowing him to control a ferry and guide the ghosts or those who are still living.

At that time, he was still worrying about buying a house in Fengdu. He felt that if he worked for another thousand or so years, he would be able to afford a house.

When the Eternal Peace Calamity erupted, Daoist Ling Jin was the first to jump out once more to save the people with the past cult masters of the Heavenly Saint Cult. However, he only had his primordial spirit left and his soul had dispersed during that great calamity.

He didn’t leave anything behind, so even if Qin Mu wanted to summon his soul and reconstruct his soul, he couldn’t do it.

In the fog ahead, the ferryman came. The clothes of the ferryman on the boat were tattered, and he looked very tall standing in the small boat. His tattered cape fluttered in the fog.

The boat leaned against the ferry, and Qin Mu boarded the small boat. The ferryman rowed the boat and headed towards Fengdu.

Standing on the ship, Qin Mu couldn’t help but recall the conversation he had with Daoist Ling Jing during the Eternal Peace Calamity.

He said, “Daoist Ling Jin, you and Patriarch will put your lives on the line for Eternal Peace and obstruct High Heavens. However, no one among the people of Eternal Peace will know that you were the heroes that guarded them.”

At that time, Daoist Ling Jing swerved his boat through the mountains of skeletons and said to him with a smile, “But I know, I’m a hero. I want to follow my heart and do things.”

Daoist Ling Jing even said that the next time he came, the person on the ferry might not be me.

Qin Mu looked at the ferryman. He wasn’t Ling Jing, but another god of Fengdu.

When the small boat reached the shore, Qin Mu paid the fare and jumped onto the shore. He walked past the boundary stone of the living realm of the dead, crossed the mountain ridge, and walked towards Fengdu.

There were all kinds of people in this world, all kinds of ways of living, all kinds of life. Some were joyful, some were plain, some were difficult, and some were painful.

However, no matter how good life was or how bad it was, there would always be a few people who would carry the heaviest burden and even sacrifice their lives for them.

For these people, we should not laugh at their choices, but give them the respect they deserve.

Fengdu’s Great Dao rules tried to change Qin Mu’s corporeal body, turning him into a skeleton. However, Qin Mu’s understanding of the Great Dao of Youdu was extremely profound, and his cultivation was incomparably dense. The Great Dao rules of Fengdu couldn’t change him at all.

He continued forward and looked around. Fengdu was much wider now, and it wasn’t inferior to Son of Heavenly Yin’s Mingdu. It was vast and boundless. It was obvious that numerous heavenly teachers and heavenly kings of Founding Emperor Era were gathered here, and Fengdu was constructed quite well.

Qin Mu crossed over the mountain ridge and saw the god cities of Fengdu in front of him.

There were too many of his memories in this place, but the layout had changed drastically. It made him feel like he had entered a foreign land.

He walked into King Qin City, and there were many gods and devils walking along the streets. When they saw him, they were all stunned and looked at him in a daze.

Qin Mu smiled and nodded at the gods of Founding Emperor on both sides.

Everyone returned his smile.

Soon, news of Qin Mu coming to Fengdu spread out, and the bird-headed God Chi Xiu was the first to rush over. He landed in front of Qin Mu and greeted, “Should I greet you as Human Emperor Qin or as Celestial Venerable Mu?”

Qin Mu smiled. “As Celestial Venerable Mu.”
