Chapter 1167 – The 11th Divine Artifact

Qin Mu looked at this scene and felt that everything happening on the sacrificial altar was so ridiculously absurd.

Each of these eight Celestial Venerables was full of righteousness and benevolence, thinking for the sake of the common folks. However, they were bigger troubles than the ancient gods.

Celestial Venerable Qiang was the so-called treacherous Grand Emperor that she had mentioned. Celestial Venerable Xiao was ancient god Celestial Emperor Grand Creation himself. Celestial Venerable Gong was one of the three great divine kings of the masters of creation, who used to enslave the ancient gods. Heavenly Lady Yan was speculated to be Celestial Empress, and Celestial Venerable Hong was the Heaven Duke that they wanted to overthrow!

As for Celestial Venerable Hao, God Sovereign Lang Xuan, and Divine King Zu, they were the children of the most powerful ancient gods!

These people’s pompous words almost made him laugh out loud.

“How ironic, how god-damn ironic-”

Qin Mu looked at their solemn expressions and couldn’t help laughing out loud.

The eight Celestial Venerables glanced at him and snorted coldly.

“Celestial Venerable Mu, you are already useless to us, so why are you laughing?” Divine King Zu was puzzled.

“Divine King is wrong. Other than a few exceptions, none of the Dao friends here will try to kill me as I know too many secrets. If I reveal them now, everyone will be finished!” When he finished speaking, he laughed loudly.

Celestial Venerable Xiao, Celestial Venerable Hong, Celestial Venerable Gong, Heavenly Lady Yan, and Heavenly Lady Qiang also laughed. Only Celestial Venerable Hao, God Sovereign Lang Xuan, and Divine King Zu didn’t laugh.

Celestial Venerable Hao said indifferently, “Knowing a lot of secrets can save one’s life sometimes, but it can also make one die very quickly and carelessly. For example, Great Sun Sovereign.”

Qin Mu smiled. “Many thanks for Dao Friend Hao’s guidance. As long as I can stay alive in the present moment, I’ll be satisfied.”

Celestial Venerable Hao turned around and said, “In that case, let us break open the crack of Ancestral Court and leave this place before sealing the crack!”

The eight Celestial Venerables flew towards the crack in the sky of Ancestral Court while Qin Mu followed behind them. These eight Celestial Venerables each had their own ulterior motives. Even though they wouldn’t kill Qin Mu on the spot, they could still seal him in Ancestral Court. Thus, Qin Mu had to seize the opportunity to rush out with them.

In the crack of Ancestral Court, the eight Celestial Venerables looked at each other. Celestial Venerable Hong smiled and said, “Everyone, let us use our own methods to break the seal of this Ancestral Court.”

Everyone agreed.

The eight Celestial Venerables immediately made their respective moves. From these moves, one could see everyone’s cultivation.

Celestial Venerable Hao was the most outstanding. With a single move, he had 28 Celestial Palaces. It was majestic and magnificent.

Next was God Sovereign Lang Xuan, who had a total of 26 Celestial Palaces. They were inter-connected and formed a Celestial Heavens.

Celestial Venerable Hong had 25 Celestial Palaces, Heavenly Lady Qiang and Heavenly Lady Yan had 24, while Celestial Venerable Xiao had 20. Divine King Zu and Celestial Venerable Gong had 18.

Qin Mu took it all in. Even though the number of Celestial Palaces represented the cultivation of everyone, Qin Mu didn’t believe a single one of the eight Celestial Venerables!

Even if Celestial Venerable Hao had consistently shown that he had 28 Celestial Palaces, he still didn’t believe it.

Celestial Venerable Hao could be considered an honest person among the eight Celestial Venerables, but this honesty is only relative to the ten Celestial Venerables. Which one of them wasn’t a witty old fox?

The number of Celestial Palaces they displayed were only the number of Celestial Palaces they wanted their opponents to know. Even if one of them revealed 35 Celestial Palaces in one go, Qin Mu wouldn’t be surprised at all!

The eight Celestial Venerables executed their own divine arts, and the divine arts they used were actually the divine art systems of the ancient gods. The divine arts used were all using Dao Ancestor’s Path of Algebra to form the Great Dao of each ancient god!

Qin Mu didn’t believe it at all.

These eight Celestial Venerables were all cunning and had already entered their path(read: entered their Dao) long ago. Their divine arts were definitely not the ancient gods’ divine arts that were built on the foundation of the Path of Algebra, but rather, the great divine arts that they had comprehended after they entered the path.

The divine arts they had displayed were only to confuse others!

The scheming between the ten Celestial Venerables of Celestial Heavens was more intense than anyone could imagine!

Even though the eight Celestial Venerables didn’t use their true abilities, they were still Celestial Venerables. The powers of their divine arts were vast and powerful, and waves of world-destroying might swept towards the crack in Ancestral Court!

When these divine arts entered the crack, the backs of Celestial Heavens, the Primordial Realm, Xuandu, Youdu, and the Four Extremities appeared from the crack to contend against their divine arts!

At the end of the Ancient Primordial Era, ancient god Celestial Emperor Grand Creation, led all the gods in the world to seal Ancestral Court in an attempt to bury all the dishonourable history of Ancestral Court. He used the blood of the ancient gods and the Great Dao of the ancient gods.

With the addition of the backs of Celestial Heavens, the Primordial Realm, Xuandu, Youdu, and the other worlds, how terrifying was the seal?

However, now that the eight Celestial Venerables had joined forces, their abilities could completely contend with the gods of the past!

In addition, they only wanted to create a passage out and not completely break the seal of Ancestral Court, so the task was even easier!

The bodies of the eight Celestial Venerables were majestic, and their corporeal bodies grew larger. Even the twenty-odd Celestial Heavens floating behind them didn’t seem as astonishing.

The divine light behind their heads formed a wheel that slowly rotated. All kinds of divine arts leaped out from the wheel of light and opened up the cracks.

They flew forward and went deeper into the seal, getting closer and closer to breaking out of Ancestral Court.

Qin Mu followed behind them and turned back to look. He saw huge eyes appearing in the sky and land of Ancestral Court, looking at them greedily.

It was a void beast.

The void beast mother was killed by Qin Mu in the Glassy Sky Pagoda. Before a new one was formed, the void beasts had no leader. Without the mother beast, Heavenly Lady Qiang couldn’t mobilize so many void beasts at once.

These void beasts were ownerless and filled with greed for the outside world. Because of their fear of Qin Mu and Eight Celestial Venerables, they didn’t dare to go forward.

When Qin Mu and Eight Celestial Venerables were about to leave Ancestral Court, the void beasts finally walked out of the void and flew towards the crack.

Finally, the eight Celestial Venerables broke through the seal, and Divine King Zu’s eyes sparkled. He was about to send Qin Mu back to Ancestral Court when a light flashed. Qin Mu executed his teleportation divine art and teleported out.

Divine King Zu immediately gave up on this idea and praised in his heart, “This brat can seize every opportunity he got. If he had grown up with us back then, Celestial Venerable Hao might not necessarily have become the leader among the ten Celestial Venerables.’

He looked hot-headed, but he was actually careful, and full of praise for Qin Mu.

Everyone stepped out of Ancestral Court, and the eight Celestial Venerables immediately executed their own seals to seal the cracks of Ancestral Court.

Heavenly Lady Yan smiled. “Dao Brother Mu, you are the most senior in the Heavenly Alliance, so you should also add a seal.”

“Heavenly Lady’s orders, how would I dare to disobey?”

Qin Mu took a step forward and said righteously, “For the sake of the people in the world, I shall do my best to prevent the devils in Ancestral Court from escaping!”

He cast a seal and sealed Ancestral Court with the eight Celestial Venerables.

God Sovereign Lang Xuan purposely deflected his seal and destroyed more than half of Qin Mu’s seal. The other Celestial Venerables followed suit, grinding Qin Mu’s seal into an incomparably fine needle.

Everyone laughed in unison, “Celestial Venerable Mu’s seal is like a nail stuck between our seals, just like how Celestial Venerable Mu is like a nail, securely nailed into Celestial Heavens and the Heavenly Alliance!”

Qin Mu also laughed loudly, and everyone laughed happily.

When everyone was done laughing, they looked around and saw that the sacrificial altar Qin Mu had left outside Ancestral Court was indeed gone. Even the two Celestial Venerable Treasure Carriages and the eighteen heavenly dragons had vanished without a trace. Only the faint aftermath of the divine art was left in the starry sky, giving people a terrifying feeling.

Celestial Venerable Hao looked at Celestial Venerable Hong and said, “Dao Brother, come and see who did this.”

Celestial Venerable Hong nodded and a wisp of demonic qi flew out. However, the demonic qi fused with the aftermath of the divine art and gradually changed, causing that person’s figure to appear.

The expressions of the eight Celestial Venerables changed at the same time. The figure that appeared was none other than a Divine Weapon Celestial Venerable Yu!
