Chapter 1300: The One Qi of Return to Ruins Is Born
The four divine beings’ faces twitched wildly as they stared at Qin Mu, who had suddenly appeared. Their gazes were filled with confusion.
Mother Earth suddenly couldn’t contain her fury. She struck out with a palm, unleashing the geomagnetic force. One palm from her could crush stars!
“Stop!” Heaven Duke and Earth Lord shouted in unison.
But it was already too late.
Mother Earth’s palm landed on Qin Mu, yet it passed straight through his body. Qin Mu walked across the back of her hand, and Mother Earth stared blankly at her own hand, at a loss.
“Celestial Venerable Mu, you’re playing tricks again!”
Ancestral God King suddenly erupted in rage as well, more from humiliation after being beaten down. In the sky, one Heavenly Dao treasure after another unleashed their might, all blasting toward Qin Mu!
Qin Mu “arrogantly” strolled through his Xanadu World, seeing no one and nothing, utterly contemptuous—it was truly unbearable for him!
The moment Ancestral God King made his move, Heaven Duke broke into a smile, overjoyed. “The traitor has shown his weakness!”
Lava Earth Lord and Mother Earth, who had been beaten senseless by Ancestral God King, were delighted at this. But Heaven Duke’s next words chilled their hearts: “We need to flee! Follow me—”
Heaven Duke suddenly exerted force, and starlight gathered in his eyes. With a sharp sound, he shot a hole through the Xanadu World, tearing open a massive gap. The three of them scrambled to escape.
Suddenly, the Xanadu World shook. Behind Ancestral God King, within his Heavenly Palace, one Heavenly Dao incarnation after another rose up, intercepting the three.
Heaven Duke, Earth Lord, and Mother Earth fought desperately. Meanwhile, Ancestral God King’s Heavenly Dao treasures struck Qin Mu one after another, shattering the ground, turning earth into magma, and evaporating the magma!
Yet Qin Mu walked across the magma as if he felt nothing.
Ancestral God King was furious beyond measure. Suddenly, he abandoned Qin Mu and turned to deliver a killing blow to Heaven Duke, Earth Lord, and Mother Earth, who had just fought their way out of the Xanadu World. He sneered, “I can’t do anything to Celestial Venerable Mu, but can’t I deal with you?”
He withdrew his Heavenly Dao incarnations, his power surging, and struck Heaven Duke, Earth Lord, and Mother Earth, making them spit blood repeatedly.
At that moment, Qin Mu unhurriedly walked out of the impenetrable Xanadu World and strode away right before their eyes.
Heaven Duke and Earth Lord, protecting Mother Earth as they fled, caught a glimpse of Qin Mu in the distance and were momentarily stunned. “That Qin kid seems to have taken the wrong path… Right, he’s still being affected by our divine abilities, unknowingly veering off course!”
But they had no time to worry about Qin Mu. They fought desperately against Ancestral God King, but could only take a beating.
“Mother Earth cannot die!”
Heaven Duke shouted, “Borrow power from our true bodies!”
Above his head, vast starlight gathered into a river, descending like a Milky Way from the sky and pouring into his body.
At the same time, Earth Lord also borrowed power from his true body. The Great Way of the Netherworld converged, merging with demonic energy, and surged into his body in one go.
Their power skyrocketed, but they still couldn’t match Ancestral God King, retreating step by step.
The four of them fought fiercely on the highlands of the Ancestral Court, flattening highlands into plains and plains into basins. Qin Mu wandered through the basin, circling around and around.
Heaven Duke and Earth Lord grew anxious for his safety, but strangely, Qin Mu wasn’t affected by their divine abilities at all, remaining perfectly unharmed.
“He’s comprehending a wondrous and profound Great Way. This state of enlightenment allows him to avoid the power of our divine abilities!”
Earth Lord suddenly realized and transmitted a message to Heaven Duke, saying, “When he wakes from this state of enlightenment, he’ll be freed from this untouchable state. At that moment, even if he doesn’t die, he’ll be severely injured!”
Heaven Duke understood. Qin Mu’s state of enlightenment seemed to be merging with the Great Way, an extremely high level. But once he emerged from it, he would no longer be invincible.
That would be Qin Mu’s most dangerous moment!
“I’ll carve a path out of this basin for him to leave!”
Heaven Duke waved his hand, and the mountains around the basin suddenly split open, revealing a massive canyon. Qin Mu walked up to the passage and, without stopping, followed it out.
Heaven Duke and Earth Lord breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, Mother Earth clasped her hands together, and the great canyon closed, trapping Qin Mu in the middle.
Heaven Duke and Earth Lord were furious. “Mother Earth has no decency! She’s always wanted Qin Mu’s life, and we wasted our efforts to save her!”
The next moment, they saw Qin Mu pass straight through the mountain, walking forward safely. But this time, his destination was completely chaotic.
He drifted farther and farther from the battlefield of Heaven Duke, Earth Lord, Mother Earth, and Ancestral God King, eventually reaching the eastern desert of the Ancestral Court. The desert’s black sand flew wildly, and fierce winds howled, reducing everything to ashes.
Last time, Qin Mu had relied on the Glazed Azure Sky Canopy to safely cross this desert.
This time, he charged straight in. The black sand of the desert seemed to touch nothing, passing right through his body.
Qin Mu walked safely to the center of the desert, arriving before the Taiji Vein.
The ancient god within the Taiji Vein was startled and secretly observed. “How did this guy come here? Could it be that he knows I tricked him into going to the Great Blackwood to die and has come for revenge? Or has he learned of my conspiracy with Tai Su and come to eliminate me?”
But to his confusion, Qin Mu passed straight through the vein, aimlessly entering the White Sand Desert.
The ancient god in the Taiji Vein was dumbfounded. “This guy, going from pure yin energy into pure yang energy, crossing the Yin-Yang Star Domain—has he lost his mind?”
The Taiji Vein appeared to be in the black-and-white desert, but when viewed from afar, it was actually a brilliant star domain shaped like a Taiji diagram, black and white!
Qin Mu crossed this extremely dangerous Yin-Yang Star Domain, leaving the ancient god in the vein baffled.
As he walked out of the Taiji Vein, his insights into the Great Way of Primordial Beginning surged in, flooding his mind!
Qin Mu couldn’t help but let out a long roar. The sound rose like a single thread, straight into the clouds, shaking the seals of the ancient gods in the sky and revealing the backsides of countless worlds!
His Embryonic Divine Treasure Pouch roared out, spinning around him. With one hand reaching for the sky and the other pressing the earth, he transformed into a Four-Faced God and executed the Four Directions Seal of Heaven and Earth.
Then, his techniques and divine abilities shifted. The Second Heaven of Divine Abilities unfolded, manifesting as the Heavenly and Earthly Mysterious Gate—a towering gate connecting Heaven, Earth, the Netherworld, and the Xanadu.
Qin Mu moved with the flow. In his Divine Treasure domain, the Heavenly River surged. He observed the river and the four poles, transforming into the Third Heaven of Divine Abilities.
Then his divine consciousness exploded. With one hand, he lifted a piece of Grand Celestial Heaven—the Fourth Heaven of Divine Abilities, where the Grand Celestial Heaven gathered into a circle!
He pinched a flower between two fingers. The flower bloomed brilliantly, petals falling and flying, filling the sky with purple energy. A guest among the purple paths.
One by one, his great enlightenment divine abilities shifted: the Sixth Heaven, Chasing Wandering Souls in the Netherworld; the Seventh Heaven, Ancient Altar of the Xanadu in the Taihuang; the Eighth Heaven, the Ark of the Other Shore.
As he executed the Eighth Heaven of Divine Abilities, Qin Mu’s form broke through the void, standing as if on an ark to the other shore. He crossed layer after layer of void, reaching the twenty-eighth void in an instant, then breaking through to the twenty-ninth and arriving at the thirtieth void.
He sailed through the void, covering an unimaginable distance across the Ancestral Court, before gradually slowing down.
Yet his techniques continued to flow naturally.
“Nine transformations await one glance, the silent sound returns from the great dream!”
A Buddhist chant rang out. He had entered enlightenment in a dream, instantly transforming his insights into the Ninth Heaven of Divine Abilities: the Ninefold Dream!
The Ninefold Dream spanned ten thousand ages, but in reality, it was but an instant. He woke from the dream, pointed at the sky and drew on the earth, his divine abilities flowing freely. The Tenth Heaven of Divine Abilities emerged as fate decreed.
The Unchanging Intent of Heaven and Earth!
Then came the Twelfth Heaven: The One Qi of Return to Ruins Is Born!
