Tales of Herding Gods
Chapter 1651: Battle Between The Chess Player

Dong!

Mistress Yuanmu and Celestial Venerable Ling smashed into a lotus leaf at the bottom of the abyss one after another. Mistress Yuanmu still couldn't kill her, and she couldn't help feeling anxious.

One of the two women stood on the left and the other on the right.

Celestial Venerable Ling's expression was still indifferent. Mistress Yuanmu's attacks didn't seem to have any effect on her. It was indeed very difficult to kill her. The four young masters of Miluo Palace once had this chance, but Founding Emperor Qin Ye blocked it for her.

If he wanted to kill her, it was impossible unless it was an existence on the level of the young master of Miluo Palace.

Mistress Yuanmu stared at her cautiously while Celestial Venerable Ling looked around. Her gaze landed on the lotus flowers, and she said in astonishment, "This is the Ruins of End? There are actually so many secrets hidden inside!"

She examined the lotus flowers in detail. In this Chaos Sea, there were seventeen Ruins of End abysses that corresponded to seventeen universes.

These seventeen universes appeared in order, but there seemed to be no order of karma in the Ruins of End.

For ordinary people, this kind of situation was hard to understand, but for Celestial Venerable Ling, it was very simple.

To her, the essence of the universe was mass and energy. The seventeen universes were only seventeen states of mass and energy.

Meanwhile, the abyss of the Ruins of End was an unchanging point. She could observe the seventeen states at the same time. This was similar to her unchanging divine art, but it was more profound.

"This is another difficult point in the universe besides the black mountain."

Celestial Venerable Ling muttered to herself and said in a low voice, "The World Tree of the Great Black Mountain became the imitation of the Dao Tree of all those who had achieved the Dao because of its unchanging attribute. The Great Dao of those who had achieved the Dao was imprinted in the ultimate void in the form of the World Tree, and there was hope of surviving the great calamity of the universe's destruction. The Ruins of End is another difficult point. Logically speaking, there should also be a way to achieve the Dao here…"

Mistress Yuanmu's blood ran cold.

When she met the second young master of Miro Palace here, the second young master told her that there was another way to achieve the Dao, and it was the characteristic of the Ruins of End's goddess. Only the ancient gods born in the Ruins of End could do it.

He didn't expect Celestial Venerable Ling to sense the existence of another path to achieve the Dao and see the principles behind the World Tree and the Ruins of End!

This kind of aptitude and comprehension was simply heaven-defying!

"This kind of attainment of the Dao requires one to cultivate the Dao of the Ruins of End, the Chaos Seed Lotus. It sounds simple, but it's actually quite troublesome."

Celestial Venerable Ling tilted her head and thought about it. "It doesn't seem to be particularly troublesome…"

Mistress Yuanmu had a smile on her face as she said softly, "Sister Ling, you said it's not troublesome, so how can I achieve the Dao in the Ruins of End? Look at me, have I already achieved the Dao in the Ruins of End?"

Celestial Venerable Ling took a glance at her and shook her head. "You didn't succeed. The path you took was only the traditional Dao Tree. However, your Dao of the Ruins of End clashed with the Ultimate Void, so you couldn't cultivate the Dao Tree. Your path is wrong."

Mistress Yuanmu's aura was stifled. She was the most powerful existence in the world, and no one dared to say that her path was wrong in front of her!

However, ever since Emperor Hao Tian had saved her from Qin Mu's red rope seal, she had indeed tried to imprint her Dao into the Ultimate Void, but she had always failed.

The cold wind of the Ultimate Void would cancel out the heat and silence of her path of the Ruins of End!

Not to mention the Dao Tree, even if she entered the Ultimate Void, she would feel the danger of death!

"There's a person in this world who achieved the Great Dao in the Ruins of End."

Celestial Venerable Ling continued, "Celestial Venerable Mu used himself as the universe to evolve into the Ruins of End. The Ruins of End Chaos Lotus grew lotuses, which was why he was the authentic Ruins of End Dao. However, his Dao was also slightly off. He didn't comprehend the Dao of the Ruins of End to cultivate the Chaotic Lotus, but he relied on external objects like his World Tree. He relied on the lotus seeds of the Ruins of End."

Mistress Yuanmu seemed to be deep in thought. At this moment, a lotus leaf floated over silently from afar. Second Young Master, who was suppressed in the Chaos Sea, had originally planned to lay his hands on the two people on the lotus leaf and forcefully kidnap them. When he heard this, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned and didn't make a move.

"Your view is extraordinary. There's actually an existence like you in the seventeenth era. What a treasure land."

The Chaos Sea churned, and waves rolled. The huge face of the second young master slowly emerged from the sea, and his voice entered their ears. "It seems like teacher is right. He once said ruefully that us who have achieved the Dao are the vermin of the universe. We smuggled ourselves into the next universe and invaded the spirit energy and spirit energy there, causing the original universe to become smaller. The number of intelligent beings that were born also decreased, resulting in an existence that could solve the great calamity of destruction. The seventeenth era wasn't invaded by the prehistoric Daoists, but a beautiful woman like you was actually born."

Her face gradually emerged from the Chaos Sea and appeared on the sea surface not far away.

Celestial Venerable Ling looked down and saw that the second young master of Miluo Palace was beautiful. He looked similar to Mistress Yuanmu, but even more beautiful.

"You are a true person of the Ruins of End."

Celestial Venerable Ling asked curiously, "What's your name? Why are you suppressed here?"

"I'm the second young master of Miluo Palace. My name is no longer important. I have achieved success in my cultivation and obtained the Hall of Limitless Dao, so my teacher calls me Limitless. Back then, because I wanted to destroy the entire universe and annihilate all civilizations, after I killed many people who had achieved the Dao, my teacher discovered… that it was you!"

The second young master of Miluo Palace suddenly noticed Celestial Venerable Ling's appearance, and as if he had seen a ghost, he cried out, "Why is it you?"

Celestial Venerable Ling was bewildered. "It's me. Why?"

Mistress Yuanmu was a little lost. She looked at Celestial Venerable Ling, then at the second young master of Miluo Palace, not knowing what shocked her.

Ultimate Void.

Qin Mu and Emperor Hao Tian's auras were raised to the extreme. Emperor Hao Tian used the Tai Chu Qi to forcefully transform into the path of consciousness. His Grand Qi Celestial Heavens instantly evolved and transformed into the Tai Chu Celestial Heavens!

In the Tai Chu Overarching Heaven, the path of the Tai Chu was boundless. It made his Tai Chu Heaven seem like the universe had just opened, and the World Tree stood tall in the boundless Tai Chu Qi!

In his hand, another qi of the Tai Shi Technique transformed into the Tai Yi Divine Axe, and he grabbed it like a giant that could split heaven and earth apart!

In the distance, Tai Chu, who was fighting Celestial Venerable Yun, immediately sensed the near-perfect Dao of Tai Chu. He hurriedly looked over and couldn't help but be in a daze.

That was the realm that he had dreamed of, the realm that he had yearned for. Yet now, it was displayed on his son!

Although Emperor Hao Tian used qi of primordial qi to evolve the Tai Chu Overarching Heaven, making it imperfect, the Tai Chu itself couldn't even achieve this step!

Boom!

Celestial Venerable Yun took advantage of his daze to stab him in the chest. Tai Chu hurriedly composed himself and quickly retreated. He flicked his fingers and sent the emperor's sword flying!

'It's just as Celestial Venerable Mu said. I've probably lost my drive and motivation.' He sighed to himself and focused on resisting Celestial Venerable Yun.

Celestial Venerable Yun's improvement was godly. He had already adapted to the Grand Emperor's Dao Tree Dao Fruit. However, because his corporeal body was too weak, his hands were tied when he attacked, and he couldn't unleash his full power.

Tai Chu had been injured in the battle with Qin Mu, and he had also lost the Numinous Sky Hall that Third Young Master had given him. However, he still had the twenty-four halls from the Jade Capital City of the ancestral court, which was his trump card.

As long as the two Great Overarching Heavens fused a little more, he could activate the twenty-four throne halls to suppress Celestial Venerable Yun!

As long as Celestial Venerable Yun was suppressed for a moment, he could take the chance to devour and refine his opponent's Great Overarching Heaven and cultivate it into the Great Overarching Heaven of Tai Su!

The battle between the two of them was becoming more stalemate. They were fighting with their lives on the line, looking for an opportunity to get rid of their opponent and devour the opponent's Great Overarching Heaven.

At this moment, Emperor Hao Tian moved his body and took a step forward. He swung the Taiyi Divine Axe in his hand and swept it towards Qin Mu!

He was still accumulating his power. This strike contained the supreme power of the Tai Chu Overarching Heaven. In addition to his own magic power and comprehension of the Dao, the Ultimate Void cracked open wherever the ax passed!

This was definitely the strongest attack he could unleash in his life. The power of this attack was unrivaled!

At the same time, the World Tree behind Qin Mu rumbled, and its branches flew up. Countless roots danced, taking root in the Ultimate Void!

Numerous incomparably thick roots spread out in all directions, piercing through the Ultimate Void to absorb the cold and silent wind, allowing the wind to blow on the Precious Tree to remain unmoved!

Qin Mu basically didn't have much magic power in his body. His vital qi was used to reconstruct his corporeal body and primordial spirit, but the World Tree contained his Great Dao imprint!

At this moment, as the World Tree took root in the Ultimate Void, the Great Dao imprint in the World Tree instantly seemed to be imprinted in the Ultimate Void!

The surging power of the Great Dao surged over from the World Tree!

Qin Mu gave a long roar, and the power that surged from the void filled his body!

At this moment, he seemed to have become a Dao and felt the ultimate power of the Great Dao that filled his body!

The door in his hand flew up, and the Great Dao poured into the door. Using the door as a huge knife, it didn't meet Celestial Emperor Hao's ax. Instead, it slashed towards Celestial Venerable Hao's Tai Chu Dao Tree!

Boom—

Boundless light burst forth from the Ultimate Void and engulfed the two of them, drowning out their figures!

In the light, a loud cracking sound rang out. The Dao Tree in the Great Overarching Heaven of Tai Su swayed and fell down, smashing into the Great Overarching Heaven. The Dao chains collapsed, and the Dao markings rose up like dust.

Behind Qin Mu, the World Tree swayed and suddenly broke apart, collapsing to the ground.

The light gradually dispersed, and Qin Mu and Celestial Emperor Hao's bodies swayed. Their auras weakened rapidly.

A smile appeared on Emperor Hao Tian's face, and he said in a low voice, "Celestial Venerable Mu, you were able to injure both of us, but you didn't expect that I had the third and fourth young masters behind me, as well as the entire Jade Capital City of the ancestral court!"

From the heart of his brows, treasure halls flew out.

"Now, as long as I get rid of you, all the turmoil in the heavens and worlds can be easily quelled!"

Emperor Hao Tian straightened his back and said solemnly, "Fellow Daoists of the Hall of Thirty-Two Treasures, please!"

There was no movement in the thirty-two halls.

Celestial Emperor Hao frowned slightly and said solemnly, "Thirty-two Dao friends, Celestial Venerable Mu's World Tree has been destroyed by me. You can start now!"

There was still no movement in the Thirty-Two Treasure Hall.

Qin Mu turned around shakily and said with a smile that wasn't a smile, "Celestial Venerable Hao, in the Jade Capital City of the ancestral court, there are not only three young masters and four young masters, there are also seven young masters. And I am the seventh young master."

The Jade Capital of the ancestral court, the great calamity that destroyed the sixteenth era.

The Dao Tree swayed, and the four young masters of Miluo Palace played the zither under the tree. Beside them were the numerous hall masters of Miluo Palace.

On the other side, a World Tree floated over from the chaos, and a figure stood under it. His voice came from afar. "Whoever dares to go against me, I'll kill them!"

"Old Seven, you are too impudent." Another voice rang out, and Numinous Sky Hall appeared.
