Tales of Herding Gods
Chapter 1547: Forty Thousand Years, Storms And Songs

In Celestial Venerable Xiao's body, half of the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit was roaring furiously, fighting for control of Celestial Venerable Xiao's corporeal body.

Half of Celestial Venerable Xiao's body lost consciousness, and his composure was seized by the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit.

A series of celestial palaces burst forth from the back of his head, transforming into a huge celestial heavens that suppressed and refined the Grand Emperor. In an instant, the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit shattered and became his nutrients.

His abilities were too strong. Even the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit couldn't pose much of a threat to him.

He regained control of his corporeal body and was about to kill Celestial Venerable Ling the next moment.

With his current abilities, such a close distance wouldn't give Celestial Venerable Ling any chance to escape!

The speed of his attack was so fast that Celestial Venerable Ling didn't have time to execute the unchanging divine art!

However, just as he was about to make a move, the unchanging divine art circulated, and half of the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit appeared again to fight for control of his corporeal body!

"Bastard!"

Another half of Celestial Venerable Xiao's body lost consciousness, and she had nowhere to vent her frustration. She could only destroy and refine the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit again.

At this moment, Celestial Venerable Ling had already retreated, and Qin Mu also leaped up from the desert. The divine treasure realm allowed his injuries to recover quickly, and he joined Celestial Venerable Ling.

"Sister Ling's divine art isn't bad either!" Qin Mu smiled.

"You taught me well."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. At that moment, they heard Celestial Venerable Xiao's voice. "Celestial Venerable Ling, Celestial Venerable Mu, do you think the unchanging divine art can trap me in the Grand Emperor and make me surrender? You underestimate me, Xiao Weisu. The unchanging substance is merely a change in substance. However, during the primordial era when the universe was created, there was no substance at all. There was no substance, no shape, no form. It was the primordial era, the primodrial chaos!"

Qin Mu was astonished. He immediately picked up the Tai Yi walking stick and rushed towards God Execution Stage.

Celestial Venerable Ling followed closely behind. Both of them were extremely fast, but on God Execution Stage, Celestial Venerable Xiao's corporeal body and primordial spirit had already started to transform into Xiantian One!

"The Five Great Daos, the five supreme Ancient Gods. The unchanging divine art is a divine art that stabilizes matter. From the divine art being able to reverse time, Celestial Venerable Ling, you are indeed outstanding in some way that even I can't reach. However, for the Five Great Daos, the only thing you can counter is the consciousness path that is separated from the Great Dao of Taiji and the Great Dao of Tai Chu!"

Celestial Venerable Xiao's voice rang out, and before the two of them could reach the God Execution Stage, his figure had already vanished, turning into Xiantian One.

Not only did he transform into Primordial One, even half of the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit transformed into Primordial One!

Celestial Venerable Ling immediately sensed that her unchanging divine art was broken.

The first person to break the unchanging divine art was Qin Mu. Qin Mu used the Dao of Tai Shi to break the unchanging divine art by using the formless form and energy state.

On the other hand, Celestial Venerable Xiao had used the Dao of Tai Chu to transform into a primordial being to solve the problem. The methods of the two of them had reached the same goal through different means.

From the moment Celestial Venerable Ling had the idea of unchanging substance to completely developing unchanging divine art, after 96,000 years, it was truly a long time.

For 960,000 years, Celestial Venerable Ling had worked hard for a goal that seemed impossible and even absurd to others. She had finally completed this kind of divine art. The hard work and pain she had to endure could be imagined.

Yet in just forty thousand years, the unchanging divine art was broken by someone.

The progress of the era was so fast that perhaps only lonely geniuses like Celestial Venerable Ling would have great comprehension.

However, other than the unchanging substance, her divine art had another unfathomable use, which was to go back to the past. This was something that even Celestial Venerable Xiao couldn't solve.

Furthermore, Celestial Venerable Xiao had placed her unchanging divine art in front of the path of the Great Ultimate, placing her on the same level as the five precelestials. He believed that she was an existence that was on par with the Taiyi, the Grand Primordium, the Grand Primordium, the Great Simplicity, and the Great Ultimate!

His evaluation of Celestial Venerable Ling was so high that it made people dumbfounded.

Qin Mu and Celestial Venerable Ling rushed over, and Celestial Venerable Ling executed her unchanging divine art to attack Celestial Emperor's corporeal body. She tried to trap this corporeal body to prevent Celestial Venerable Xiao from obtaining it.

On the other side, Qin Mu's Tai Yi Crutch stabbed at the Primodrial One that Celestial Venerable Xiao had transformed into.

Maybe he couldn't hurt Celestial Venerable Xiao, but the Tai Yi Crutch could!

Both of them attacked at the same time. They had to stop Celestial Venerable Xiao. Otherwise, how terrifying would it be if Celestial Venerable Xiao, whose strength had reached the path of power, returned to his Celestial Emperor corporeal body?

Their divine arts came one after another, and Qin Mu used the Tai Yi Crutch as a sword. His speed was even faster, and the sword skill he executed was Calamity Breaking Sword. No matter if the opponent was Xiantian One or the Dao of Absolute Beginning, he would use his own Calamity Breaking Sword that could break all Great Daos to completely break the opponent!

Ever since he comprehended the primordial runes, he had this confidence!

Even the Five Ancient Gods were not invincible!

Just as Tai Yi's crutch stabbed into the Primordial One that Celestial Venerable Xiao had transformed into, a strange change suddenly occurred. Another figure appeared on God Execution Stage. It was Celestial Venerable Hao!

Celestial Venerable Hao laughed and bowed to the lump of precelestial one by one. He said loudly, "Father, I'm here to pay my respects to you! May father have eternal bodies and souls!"

He bowed, and a shadow instantly appeared behind him. It was none other than Goddess Tai Su.

Goddess Tai Su bowed, and Celestial Venerable Xiao, who was originally in Xiantian Realm One state, immediately transformed from one state to another. She had a body, hair, skin, blood, and flesh. She couldn't become Xiantian Realm One again!

Qin Mu's Tai Yi Crutch executed Calamity Sword, and countless sword lights burst forth. In an instant, Celestial Venerable Xiao was riddled with holes!

Celestial Venerable Xiao flew backward from God Execution Stage, tumbling into the desert.

"Dao Brother Tai Chu, who said that the strength of the five Primordial Ancient Gods is ranked according to their appearance?"

Goddess Tai Su chuckled and said, "There is no difference between the strong and weak among us five . The strong and the weak are determined by their own comprehension and cultivation!"

Previously, Celestial Venerable Xiao had said that Celestial Venerable Ling could break through the Dao of Taiji, and he had revealed his thoughts. He believed that among the five great Dao of Connate, the five supreme Great Daos would become stronger the higher one ranked.

However, Tai Su's move had forced him back to his corporeal body state from Xiantian Realm One, causing him to be injured by Qin Mu. Therefore, she couldn't help mocking him.

However, from this point, one could see that the order between the Five Gods wasn't simple.

Tai Su, who was ranked fourth among the Five Great Daos, was born even more incomplete than the second-ranked Tai Chu. She was brought to the great calamity of destruction in the sixteenth universe by Qin Mu and had no choice but to come out early. Even the primordial liquid in the egg was seized by Qin Mu.

She was innately weak and couldn't be compared to the other ancient gods. However, one move of hers was enough to make Celestial Venerable Xiao, who was Tai Chu, suffer a huge loss.

Celestial Venerable Hao and Qin Mu's attack succeeded, and both of them changed their moves almost at the same time. Celestial Venerable Hao straightened his back from his worship and executed the Myriad Dao Heavenly Wheel to slash at Qin Mu. Meanwhile, Qin Mu held his cane upside down and bowed down!

With just one strike from the Myriad Dao Heavenly Wheel, Qin Mu was smashed into smithereens. Qin Mu bowed, and Celestial Venerable Hao's chest exploded, transforming into a lump of primordial qi that revealed his sternum!

Celestial Venerable Hao smiled. "It's just a small injury, not worth mentioning. Celestial Venerable Mu, you can be proud that you can hurt me."

When he said that, his expression suddenly changed drastically. Another Qin Mu had appeared in front of him!

Celestial Venerable Hao didn't allow any explanation as the Ten Thousand Dao Heaven Wheel descended, and that Qin Mu bowed!

Boom!

Another violent ripple came from God Execution Stage. Celestial Venerable Hao's chest was tattered, and Qin Mu was shattered by him!

Celestial Venerable Hao gritted his teeth and executed the Myriad Dao Heavenly Wheel. It was like a huge millstone, grinding Qin Mu into pieces until not even a speck was left!

He bowed again, and Goddess Tai Su immediately made her move, transforming Qin Mu into a ball of qi that no longer existed!

Celestial Venerable Hao put away the Myriad Dao Heavenly Wheel, and Qin Mu stood in front of him perfectly fine, bowing to him.

Celestial Venerable Hao clenched his fists and punched out. Qin Mu exploded and turned into fine powder. Goddess Tai Su didn't have time to think. She couldn't wait for Celestial Venerable Hao to pay his respects to her, so she struck out and obliterated Qin Mu!

However, the ball of tainting qi dispersed, and another Qin Mu appeared in front of them. He held the Taiyi walking stick in reverse, and with a move, he swam towards Celestial Venerable Hao and bowed!

Celestial Venerable Hao roared furiously, and the huge celestial heavens appeared behind him. Thirty-six celestial palaces floated in the sky, and the throne halls and celestial palaces complemented each other. It was a magnificent sight.

His primordial spirit slowly rose into the sky, vast and boundless. He pressed down with his palm, and before it even landed on Qin Mu's body, Qin Mu was already crushed by the terrifying pressure and turned into ashes!

A huge hole opened up in Celestial Venerable Hao's chest, revealing his beating heart!

He was awe-inspiring and murderous, fully displaying the supreme divine might of the strongest Celestial Venerable in the world!

Qin Mu appeared in front of him once again and bowed again!

Celestial Venerable Hao shouted, and the Numinous Sky Hall burst forth with boundless emperor's might, vaporizing the entire celestial river. Only the God Execution Stage was left, and the desert storms swept up the surroundings. Countless corpses were swept into the air!

Boom!

When he struck down, the desert that was floating in midair suddenly sank down and smashed ruthlessly onto the ground, crushing the desert along with Qin Mu!

"He should die this time, right?"

He was unable to restrain his anger, and the heart in his chest was broken by Qin Mu. "Celestial Venerable Mu, can you still not die?"

His Dao heart was in disorder, and there was only one person in the world who could mess up his Dao heart. That person was Qin Mu.

At the Jade Pool Meeting a million years ago, Qin Mu had left an indelible shadow in his heart. Even though Celestial Venerable Hao had cultivated to the thirty heavens of the Dao Realm, and his Dao heart was extremely cultured, not inferior to Qin Mu's, his Dao heart would still be in chaos when facing Qin Mu.

"Not dead yet."

Qin Mu's voice traveled over, and Celestial Venerable Hao's pupils contracted. He looked over, and his expression suddenly changed. He saw Qin Mu appearing in front of him perfectly fine.

However, it wasn't just one Qin Mu, but more than twenty thousand.

These Qin Mus lined up like a long river of time that had lasted for forty thousand years.

"Celestial Venerable Hao, you sneaked into the celestial river to track me. How many shadows did you pass through?"

The twenty thousand Qin Mus looked at him in unison, and a strange smile appeared on their faces. "No matter how many phantoms you pass through, there will be as many of me. My phantoms aren't targeted at you and the Grand Emperor. They are targeted at the unchanging divine art that I left behind."

Celestial Venerable Hao looked over with difficulty and realized that the desert had vanished, the celestial river had reappeared, and Celestial Venerable Ling and Celestial Venerable Xiao were nowhere to be seen. On this long river, there were only him, Tai Su, and over twenty thousand Qin Mus.

He was hit.

He thought to himself.

The moment he stepped onto the celestial river and passed through the fog, he was already hit.

"Celestial Venerable Hao!"

The first Qin Mu bowed, and it was still the same move, Primordial Chaos Dao Travelling Together. He said loudly, "Let us take a look. You were the one who killed these forty thousand years, twenty-six thousand four hundred and twenty-three of me, and you, an existence that achieved the Dao through force. You died in my hands and were killed by me in these forty thousand years!"
