Chapter 733 - When Words Get Sour

Panda Novel

Qin Mu still hadn’t come back to his senses from hearing that Yin Chaojin was Son of Heaven Yin when that Brother Qin that Yin Chaojin mentioned walked over. He bowed to Qin Mu and the old bull. “My name is Qin Kai, a wanderer, nice to meet both of you.”

Qin Mu suppressed the shock in his heart, and he hurriedly returned the greeting. Niu Sanduo also hurriedly return the greeting.

When Qin Mu greeted him back, he sneaked a glance at the old bull, and the old bull nodded his head gently.

Qin Mu understood that this ‘Brother Qin’ was the Founding Emperor that the old bull had mentioned, he was the first name of the Qin family register, Founding Emperor Qin Ye!

He had named himself Qin Kai and didn’t use his real name. He must have realized he might have returned to some time in the past through the peculiarity on the Surging River; thus, he was careful and used a fake name.

Qin Mu raised his head to examine Founding Emperor, and he was truly somewhat similar looking to the young Founding Emperor. They were both tall and sturdy, and even though they weren’t as handsome as the young Son of Heaven Yin, they both looked prim and proper.

However, because Qin Mu had lived in Disabled Elderly Village when he was young, his inner nature was crafty, though, he looked sincere and radiant like a big boy that was in his youth and knew nothing of the worldly affairs.

On the other hand, Founding Emperor had a manly air, and with just a look, one would be attracted by his unique traits.

His bearing wasn’t the bearing of a leader that the old bull had mentioned. Instead, it was the bearing of someone who had braved through the hardships of beginning an undertaking and whose original aspiration could never be shaken even after thousands of twists and turns.

That was a bearing that a person with an unwavering Dao heart and a magnificent goal possessed. Even though Founding Emperor was standing on the back of the big kun, even though there were numerous people around him, even though the scenery was fleeting by beside him, he seemed to be standing in the center of heaven and earth. Everything was moving, and only he remained motionless.

It wasn’t because he wasn’t moving, what wasn’t moving was his Dao heart and the perseverance in his heart.

Qin Mu’s heart was doubtful. Such a Founding Emperor could be that Founding Emperor who was hiding in Carefree Village and afraid of making a comeback?

Founding Emperor’s gaze was bright, and the light in his eyes was like a serene lake being shone on by the afternoon sun. His shoulders were slighter wider than Qin Mu, and he seemed to be slightly shorter. He must have suffered when he was a youth.

When he saw the elder with a blurry face returning his greeting, Founding Emperor couldn’t help growing slightly astonished.

Even though he couldn’t see the realm of this elder, he must have been a famous existence in the celestial heavens. Why would such an existence bow back respectfully to him?

Son of Heaven Yin Chaojin made introductions. “I have just met Brother Qin as I came up to the upper bound, his skills are astonishing, and he is extraordinary. How do I address both senior brothers?”

Qin Mu said with a smile, “My name is Mu Qing. This is my senior brother, his surname is Niu, his name is Ben.”

“Niu Ben?”

The old cow’s expression changed slightly, and luckily for him, there was Benevolent Saintly King Equal to Heaven’s yellow joss paper, so his change in expression couldn’t be seen. He thought to himself, ‘Back then, when Founding Emperor first founded the celestial heavens, he had once smiled and told me he wanted to change my name. He said I shouldn’t be called Sanduo, I should be called Niu Ben. Could he have realized it was me back then?’

Qin Mu didn’t know what he was thinking, and he looked warmly at Son of Heaven Yin while thinking. ‘If I kill Son of Heaven Yin now, will the future Son of Heaven Yin disappear? The Son of Heaven Yin now isn’t an expert on Emperor’s Throne. He’s not even a god, it should be easy to kill him…’

Son of Heaven Yin saw Qin Mu looking at him and immediately smiled. “Brother Mu, this is the first distinguished meeting of the celestial heavens, countless young talents from worlds of all sizes have come, and those who can attend are all recognizable figures from their worlds, people like us are just small fries.”

Qin Mu said with a smile, “I may be a small fry, but Brother Yin is a big figure.”

Son of Heaven Yin hurriedly acted humble, but he still couldn’t hide his pleased expression. “I may be a little famous in that poor countryside of mine, but I still can’t be compared to the others.”

Qin Mu said firmly, “I see Brother Yin will definitely not remain a common person in the future, you will definitely achieve meteoric success in the future!”

Founding Emperor’s gaze flickered, and he said with a smile, “I also feel that way. Even though Brother Yin isn’t famous now, we can deduce a lot from seeing a little now. Brother Yin will definitely be world famous in the future.”

Son of Heaven Yin was overwhelmed by the favor, and he said, “Celestial Emperor still wants to give a name to the celestial heavens, thus he summoned all of the ancient gods in the world. We won’t be able to curry favor with the ancient gods, but I have a wide network of friends. Many gentries from all races have come this time, and that includes those few talents that created the cultivation of divine treasures. These few aren’t ancient gods, but they can be said to even surpass ancient gods. They created divine treasures, and only then were we able to cultivate.”

Qin Mu’s heart trembled violently. The existences that had created the cultivation system of divine treasures?

Wasn’t the cultivation system of divine treasures created by the ancient gods?

He looked at Founding Emperor, and Founding Emperor was equally agitated.

Could they finally meet the people that had created the cultivation system of divine treasures?

Son of Heaven Yin said with a smile, “They are now at Jade Pool, and they plan to host a Jade Pool Meeting. Celestial Emperor and the rest will be hosting a Celestial Heavens Meeting while we will host a Jade Pool Meeting. Even though it won’t be as grand as Celestial Heavens Meeting, we can’t miss it! Rumors say that Celestial Venerable Yu is going to announce something big, news that would astonish everyone!”

Founding Emperor said with a smile, “Since Brother Yin’s network of friends is so vast, could you first leak some news to us?”

Son of Heaven Yin hesitated for a moment, and he suppressed his voice to say mysteriously, “According to the rumors, Celestial Venerable has already comprehended a method for us divine arts practitioners to become gods! In this Jade Pool Meeting, he wants to announce this!”

Qin Mu cried out, “The method to become god? There were no divine arts practitioners that had cultivated to god before?”

Son of Heaven Yin and Founding Emperor looked at him with weird expressions.

Qin Mu instantly knew he had said something wrong and he blushed. “I’m from the countryside, so I’m not as knowledge, please don’t laugh at me. I always thought there were gods in the celestial heavens.”

Founding Emperor looked at him with a smile that was not a smile. Only then did he explain, “The celestial heavens naturally have gods. Other than the ancient gods, there are also other kinds of gods, but these gods aren’t from cultivation, they were born naturally strong. However, they all had their limits in lifespans, and once their lifespans are up, their souls would return to Youdu.”

Son of Heaven Yin pat his hands heavily, and he said with a smile, “That’s the reason! Brother Mu doesn’t have much understanding in this field, so it’s no wonder you don’t know. Actually, they are only half-gods, and it’s from their bloodlines. Most of them are descendants of ancient gods, and because of their pure bloodline, they have remarkable abilities, but they aren’t immortal like the ancient gods. Furthermore, they don’t rely on cultivation, they rely on growth.”

“Growth?” Qin Mu was even puzzled.

“For example, this big kun that is ferrying us to Jade Pool is also a god.”

Son of Heaven Yin said, “The big kun is actually a descendant of ancient gods. When they are just born, they are very powerful, but that isn’t when they are their strongest. The big kun relies on Jade Dragon Pills to grow, and unlike us, they don’t need to cultivate. When they grow into an adult, their corporeal body and magic power would be incomparably powerful! At that point, their abilities would be no weaker than ancient gods. Even if they are inferior, it’s not by much.”

Founding Emperor continued, “However, since they have a limited lifespan, they can only be known as half-gods, they can’t be immortal. On the other hand, we have to open up the Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure and cultivate step by step to open up the divine treasures one by one. Only then can we cultivate to a very high realm. The difference between us and half-gods is that our bloodline is lowly, we are divine arts practitioners from cultivation. Half-gods can only grow by relying on their bloodline.”

Qin Mu came to a realization.

However, there was only more doubt in his heart. He seemed to have time-traveled into an incomparably ancient era.

This era didn’t even have the cultivation system of the celestial palaces, and there was only the cultivation system of the divine treasures now, in that case, what era was this?

The celestial heavens seemed to have just formed, and even the name wasn’t fixed yet.

Could this celestial heavens be the ancient gods’ celestial heavens?

If this was the ancient gods’ celestial heavens, in that case, what was the connection between this ancient gods’ celestial heavens and the extraterritorial celestial heavens, which was the old celestial heavens that the people of Founding Emperor Era always mentioned?

Saint Woodcutter never said, and from the start to the end, the people of Founding Emperor Era didn’t know who their enemy was.

The people of Founding Emperor Era didn’t seem to know who the extraterritorial celestial heavens were, they only referred to them as the extraterritorial devils.

And for Crimson Emperor’s consciousness, he also didn’t know who the enemy that destroyed Crimson Light Era was, nor where they were from or how strong they were.

Qin Mu pondered and pondered, but he still couldn’t understand.

Suddenly, his heart stirred. The big disciple of Saint Woodcutter, Founding Master Wei Suifeng of Heavenly Saint Cult, was always searching for the marvels inside, and now he had vanished without a trace.

Founding Master has travel vastly and had left behind geographic maps. One of the things he had passed to Elder Qing Huang to protect was an extremely ancient commander’s seal. That commander’s seal was still in Qin Mu’s hands, so which era exactly was that seal from?

‘I still can’t kill Son of Heaven Yin now.’

Qin Mu revealed a kind smile on his face and thought to himself, ‘Son of Heaven Yin is the local informer here after all, so I still need his human network to discover more of the secrets of this era and uncover more truth buried in history. Furthermore, I still need him to introduce those people of the legends to me, those founders that created the cultivation system of divine treasures and celestial palaces!’

His heart became fervent, and he felt a burning sensation.

The founders that had created the divine arts cultivation system for the future civilization, he could finally see them!

The old bull gently poked him and only then did Qin Mu return to his senses. He still saw Founding Emperor looking at him with a smile that was not a smile. He felt an astonishment in his heart.

It was obvious that he had said something wrong and invoked Founding Emperor’s suspicion. However, Founding Emperor didn’t tear through his facade.

‘Actually, I always want to tell you that I’m your one hundredth and seventh descendant.’

Qin Mu revealed a smile and didn’t say what he was thinking. He thought to himself, ‘I want to tell you so much, but I can’t say it…’

Son of Heaven Yin sprinted to the head of the big kun and shouted from far away, “Come over quickly! Come take a look, Goddess of Heavenly Yin’s carriage is coming over!”

Founding Emperor said with a smile, “Let us go over.”

Qin Mu nodded his head, and both of them walked side by side to the head of the big kun. There were still countless divine arts practitioners hurrying over to the head of the big kun and looking excitedly at the carriage of Goddess of Heavenly Yin.

“How did you enter the peculiarity?” Founding Emperor looked forward and asked softly.

The old bull became nervous, and he tugged on Qin Mu’s clothes to signal him not to admit it.

Qin Mu said softly, “The same as you, I also walked accidentally into a cloud of fog, and I reached here.”

Founding Emperor took a look at him, and he said with a smile, “I’ve already come here for a few days, when I just came to this place, I was incomparably astonished. However, now I’ve calmed down. To be able to enter this strange era and witness the source of our future civilization is a very sacred and solemn thing. I feel I should be a bystander and not disrupt this era.”

Qin Mu said with a smile, “So what if you disrupt it? How do you know all of this isn’t destined? Maybe, by disrupting this era, it would then be what had already happened in the future. If you forced yourself not to disrupt it, you might just make unpredictable things happen in the future.”

Founding Emperor raised his eyebrows, and he said calmly, “Looks like your thoughts are different from mine. I thought you and I were both from the Surging River, but it seems I’ve guessed wrong. People who walk different paths cannot make plans together.”

Qin Mu sneered. “When words get sour, adding more words is useless. I see you are obstinate and self-opinionated, yet your inner heart is weak and incapable. You only seek to enjoy life, I’m embarrassed for you.”

Founding Emperor frowned and examined him in detail. “The name you used is fake, even your face is fake, this shows the darkness in your heart. You are an ambitious and ruthless character that wants to disrupt this era, I’ll have to stop you!”

Qin Mu said indifferently, “Your name is also fake, you look firm and brave, making it easy for you to lie to others and make them pour in all their efforts for you yet you are a scoundrel that can’t take a defeat. You are nowhere near as good as you’re made out to be!”

The old bull wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and he groaned to himself, “What should I do? What should I do! Why are both of their tempers like this? If the one hundredth and seventh descendant flipped out with his old ancestor, he would probably start beating up his old ancestor! It’s fine if he gets beat up by his old ancestor, but if he beats up his old ancestor, that would be huge!”

Right at this moment, Son of Heaven Yin’s voice rang out, “Goddess of Heavenly Yin’s carriage is here! Brother Qin, Brother Mu, come over quick!”

Qin Mu and Founding Emperor moved their gazes away from each other, and both of them hobbled forward. Their qi activities entangled together as they tried to compete with each other.
