Tales of Herding Gods
Chapter 1439: Kind-looking Celestial Venerable Hong

Di Qing won another battle, and this battle was won even more easily.

It was the army under Celestial Venerable Lang's command that had attacked the city in a grandiose manner. They were defeated by Celestial Venerable Lang and killed tens of thousands of gods and devils.

Celestial Venerable Lang's eldest disciple had been instigated by Qin Mu to rebel, and he didn't know where he had escaped to. The disciples under Celestial Venerable Lang had also suffered heavy casualties from Qin Mu's attacks, so compared to the other Celestial Venerables, the power under his command was much weaker.

However, he was still the leader of the half-gods, and the half-gods of all worlds respected him as the god emperor. Therefore, there were many strong practitioners from the half-gods and other races in his army. However, this was an army that had gathered in a hurry, a motley crew.

In front of Heaven Square City, the army of God Emperor Lang Xuan suffered heavy casualties. The heavenly drums outside the city shook, and the battle power of the soldiers of Heaven Square City increased tremendously. They attacked the enemy's formation, but their souls were activated. The gods and devils with low cultivation couldn't withstand it at all, and their souls cracked, causing them to die.

The victory of this battle was incomparably easy. When Di Qing returned from his victory, he laughed loudly and was in high spirits. He waved his hand and said, "This credit shall be recorded by Mingdu Heavenly King, and it shall be his! Men, set up a celebration banquet. Heavenly King and I will welcome you and celebrate this great merit!"

Tian Shu couldn't reject and could only let him be.

After more than ten days, the Celestial River Navy cleaned up the surrounding galaxies and finally came to the front of Tian Fang City. There were millions of soldiers waiting to pounce on them.

Di Qing didn't take it to heart at all, because in the past ten days, there were already stars that had been migrated to the vicinity of Tian Fang City.

The territory of Heaven Square City was vast, and it was filled with stars of all sizes. These stars were all planets with life, and on them lived the people of the various half-gods and billions of lives!

After these stars were relocated, the Heavenly Dao of Celestial Square City was so dense that the Heavenly Dao floating above the city was no longer as simple as taking human form. It had become corporeal!

In just over ten days, the Heavenly Bell, Heavenly Fire, Heavenly Thunder, Heavenly Light, Heavenly Plate, Heavenly Well, Heavenly Drum, Heavenly Venerate, Heavenly Chou, and the rest of the Heavenly Dao Dao weapons materialized. The majesty of the Heavenly Dao suppressed all directions, and even the army of the celestial heavens was suppressed by the power of the Heavenly Dao!

Not only that, even more Xuandu stars were migrating over, and the other Dao weapons of the Heavenly Dao were also continuously forming. Out of the forty-nine Heavenly Dao, only the outline of the heavens had yet to be formed.

If the outline of the heavens was formed, all forty-nine Heavenly Dao weapons would be gathered. This was definitely a great power!

The gods and devils in the city also felt the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, which made their magic power even denser and stronger. No matter if it was divine arts or divine weapons, their power had increased by a huge margin!

Qin Mu, Butcher, and the rest also felt that the power of the Heavenly Dao made their abilities stronger, and their Dao hearts became more clear. However, the more it was like this, the more worried they became.

There were too many lifeforms and gods of Xuandu gathered in Tian Fang City, and the stars were already filled with people. The more they gathered here, the more dangerous it was!

When the Celestial Venerable made his move, these lives would probably be turned into powder!

Outside the city, even more armies of the celestial heavens were pouring in, surrounding the Outlander Divine City so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.

The army of the celestial heavens brought the four deities divine weapons and attacked a few more times. However, even the four deities divine weapons were defeated in front of Tian Fang City.

The first heavenly master, Shang Pinying, the second heavenly master, Meng Yungui, and the rest mobilized their armies in an attempt to take down Tian Fang City. However, they also suffered heavy casualties and couldn't defeat the power of the Heavenly Dao Dao weapons.

Green Deity of the Eastern Sky, White Deity of the Western Heaven, and the other gods led their troops to attack, but they were also defeated. White Deity and Green Deity were even heavily injured.

The five emperors of the celestial heavens also mobilized, and the ten guards of the celestial heavens rushed over. They lined up their formations to fight, but they couldn't break through the walls of Celestial Square City. They couldn't even get close to the city gate!

These few days, Di Qing won dozens of rounds consecutively, unable to contain his joy.

It was just that today, Fang City was trapped, and there were no more heavens of Xuandu migrating over. The final Dao Weapon Heavenly Principle couldn't be formed, which made him slightly regretful.

"The Dao weapons of the Heavenly Dao are famous throughout the world in this battle. If all forty-nine of them come out at once, killing a Celestial Venerable won't be a problem!" he said to Qin Mu and the rest.

Outside the city, a green bird suddenly flapped its wings and flew into the camp of the celestial heavens.

"Welcome, Celestial Venerable Hong!"

The various generals of the celestial heavens went forward to welcome him and kowtowed one after another, begging for forgiveness. "We are incompetent and have been trapped here by Tian Fang City. We have never been able to break through the city and eradicate the rebels! Celestial Venerable, please punish us!"

Celestial Venerable Hong chuckled. "It's just a small matter, there's no need to beg for forgiveness. Let me take a look at the scene on the other side."

He came to the front of the formation and examined Heaven Square City. He then looked at the forty-eight Heavenly Dao Dao weapons floating above the city and listened to the Dao sound of the Heavenly Dao. He said with a smile, "What a good treasure. Ancestral God King refined the treasure of the Heavenly Dao and combined it with the 49 Heavenly Dao treasures to create a Heavenly Dao treasure that has countless changes. It's a pity that it was shattered by the Grand Emperor. Even though he refined another set, how could the treasure of the Heavenly Dao that he refined be compared to the Dao weapon that the Heavenly Dao transformed into? Even Heaven Duke couldn't refine a good treasure. Only in such a life and death situation could such a precious treasure be formed. It's enviable."

None of the generals dared to say anything.

Celestial Venerable Hong asked, "Have the other Celestial Venerables arrived?"

The generals all shook their heads and said, "Not yet."

"I was hindered by Celestial Venerable Yue who betrayed the Heaven Alliance, so I was delayed for a period of time. I thought I was late, but I didn't expect to be the first to come here."

Celestial Venerable Hong's face was radiant, and his face was glowing. He said with a smile, "Retreat a portion of your troops first. Open up an opening and let the people of Xuandu enter Heaven Square City. When his Dao weapon of Heavenly Dao matures, I'll break his."

He was a well-known good person among the ten Celestial Venerables. He didn't scold the generals, nor did he kill a few defeated generals. This made everyone sigh in relief.

However, Celestial Venerable Hong wanted them to open up a hole and let the rebel army of Xuandu gather. It was hard for them to understand why the Heavenly Dao Soldiers would form.

"Celestial Venerable must have taken a fancy to these forty-nine Heavenly Dao weapons. He even said that even Heaven Duke couldn't refine them."

Meng Yungui said to Shang Pingyin, "If this Dao weapon is formed, it will probably be the combination of the 49 Heavenly Dao weapons, and its power will be boundless. Celestial Venerable Hong has never liked to fight with people, so can he break through these Dao weapons?"

Shang Pingyin said, "Celestial Venerable Hong is unfathomable, not something we can fathom."

Meanwhile, in the Outlander God City, Di Qing had been waiting for a long time, but Celestial Venerable Hong still hadn't come to attack. Instead, the celestial heavens' camp had opened up a gap, seemingly to allow the people in the city to escape. He was relieved and said with a smile, "Celestial Venerable Hong, the incompetent ones among the ten Celestial Venerables didn't dare to fight with Tian Fang City, so they made an opening to let us escape and scatter our forces. However, I chose to do the opposite and let more people in!"

More troops and people from Xuandu migrated over. After another ten days, Celestial Venerable Hong still didn't come to attack, and the Dao weapons of the Heavenly Dao were finally formed.

In Heaven Square City, the Dao might of the Heavenly Dao flourished, and the heavenly might was vast and mighty. The rules of the Heavenly Dao made all the gods, devils, and ordinary people in the city 100 times more spirited and confident!

Qin Mu gathered Tian Shu, Butcher, and the rest and said, "Celestial Venerable Hong is going to make a move. He doesn't know we are in the city. We will only break one of his arms in this battle and take away the Dao weapon of the Heavenly Dao."

"What about the mortals in the city?" Zhe Huali asked.

Qin Mu was silent for a moment before shaking his head. "Save our lives first, the rest…"

The corners of his eyes twitched. "We'll talk about it in the future!"

Suddenly, violent tremors came from outside the city, and ten thousand Dao cried out in unison. Qin Mu and the rest hurriedly raised their heads to look, and they saw a huge face with white eyebrows and white beard rising up to block the sky in front of Heaven Square City and the stars around it!

His face was so huge that the suns orbiting Tian Fang City and the stars orbiting them were as tiny as dust.

It was Celestial Venerable Hong's face. He had white eyebrows, white beard, and a kind face.

Yet at this moment, this kind-looking Celestial Venerable Hong stretched out his hand and smacked towards the city!

Di Qing roared furiously and rose into the sky. He shouted, "Celestial Venerable Hong, Old Man Hong, you finally made your move! It's time for you to witness how terrifying the power of the Heavenly Dao is! Children, activate the Heavenly Dao Dao Dao weapons!"

In the sky above Tianfang City, the power of the Heavenly Dao Dao weapons was activated, and the power of the Heavenly Dao was unleashed to its maximum, blasting towards Celestial Venerable Hong's face!

Celestial Venerable Hong revealed a smile that made people feel as though they were bathing in the spring breeze. Behind his head, a loud and resonant Dao voice rang out as though there were thousands of Dao revolving around him. A huge halo appeared behind his head, and numerous halos appeared to form a huge celestial heavens that shone with billions of light.

Before the Heaven Dao weapons could reach his face, their power was erased by the power of the celestial heavens.

Bang.

A planet exploded, and countless lifeforms of Xuandu escaped while crying. However, in the next moment, they turned into powder along with the planet.

Bang, bang, bang!

The planets around Celestial Venerable Hong were all annihilated in front of his hand. Before his hand could land, the sun had already been extinguished, and the moon split open before shattering into pieces.

Heaven Square City shook, and the impregnable city walls collapsed one after another, turning the buildings into fine powder.

Tonight, there were close to three thousand words in these two chapters. He had written too much, but he couldn’t stop. He couldn’t forcefully divide them into two thousand words because if he did, the charm wouldn’t exist anymore.
