Tales of Herding Gods

“The negotiations are going to collapse so soon?”

Even though Qin Mu had long anticipated this day, he didn’t expect it to happen so soon.

His goal was to try his best to stall for time and give eternal peace a chance to catch their breath. Right now, only a small portion of eternal peace had migrated into the chaotic void. More importantly, Eternal Peace’s battle preparations weren’t ready yet.

“How did the negotiations between Yu Chenzi and the Heavenly Court Go?”

He frowned slightly. The negotiations with the Heavenly Court had to be done in detail. The negotiations between the envoys of the Heavenly Court and eternal peace depended on the details to stall for time. The longer they dragged on, the better.

“It’s actually a good thing that the heavenly court wants to tear up the agreement.”

He pondered for a moment and said, “Eternal peace didn’t intend to sign those agreements in the first place, but we can lower ourselves and negotiate a new agreement with the Heavenly Court. The second negotiation will make Yu Chenzi sell out even more of eternal peace’s benefits.”

Village chief and apothecary frowned.

Qin Mu continued, “If we do this, we should be able to stall for some time. No matter how humiliating the agreement Yu Chenzi negotiated, it will still have to pass through my hands. As long as I don’t sign it, it will be a piece of useless paper.”

Village chief and Apothecary’s brows relaxed, and apothecary smiled. “Yu Chenzi will have to bear the infamy.”

Qin Mu nodded his head and said, “He has long realized this. When I asked him to go to the heavenly court to seek peace, he had already realized that he might bear the blame and might even be beaten to death by the angry people. He had long made preparations. “When he went to the heavenly court to negotiate, he also needed to make preparations with the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge of the other heavens to directly contact them and bypass the Heavenly Court.”

He walked back and forth, “During the second negotiation between Heavenly Court and eternal peace, there was a shortage of heaven coins, so Heavenly Court would definitely make a move on the other heavens. “Heavenly Court is short of money, so far water can not put out the fire near it. Sucking the blood of the heavens that are controlled by heavenly court is the fastest way to get money. Sucking the blood of the other heavens that are not controlled by heavenly court will take a longer time.”

He raised his head, “The people of the heavens don’t have much to live on, so resistance is inevitable. “How can heavenly court tolerate the rebellion of those heavens? “Heavenly venerate Haotian had just become the emperor and used both kindness and power, so now is the chance for him to establish his might. “He will definitely destroy a few heavens and intimidate the world. “However, destroying the heavens that are dependent on heavenly court will only make the other heavens tremble in fear and cause their subordinates to turn their hearts away. “When eternal peace stands up against Heavenly Court, with eternal peace as the leader, will there be a trend to start a Prairie Fire?”

The God and Devil Army of Heavenly Court originated from the myriad worlds in the heavens. The geniuses of the myriad worlds in the heavens took pride in entering heavenly court.

If heavenly court went against the grain and lost the hearts of the people, then Heavenly Court would lose its source of talents.

Even though heavenly emperor could use heavenly court’s powerful military force to intimidate the myriad worlds in the heavens, the hearts of the people would go against them, causing more and more people to rebel against Heavenly Court.

There might even be many heavens forming an alliance with eternal peace, or the geniuses of all the heavens and all the worlds would join Eternal Peace!

With that, the middle-level forces of eternal peace and Heavenly Court would be much closer, and they wouldn’t be as desperate as they were now.

“What if Heavenly Court wants to force eternal peace to sign a contract before eternal peace is ready?”Village chief asked? Sucking the blood of the other heavens would only delay the decline of heavenly coins, but sucking the blood of eternal peace would be a once-and-for-all for heavenly court! If you wanted to stall for time, Heavenly Emperor might not give you the chance to stall for time! “Can you gamble with the lives of everyone in Eternal Peace?”

Qin Mu shook his head. “I can’t, so when the Heavenly Court brings the agreement over, I will sign it. However, the contract I signed is also a piece of waste paper that can be torn up at any time.”

Village chief and apothecary stared with wide eyes at his back as he walked into the palace.

“In the face of Eternal Peace’s survival, what does personal honor and disgrace matter? Mu’er has really grown up.”

Village chief stood up, he smiled and said, “I have to make a trip to eternal peace to negotiate with the envoys of Heavenly Court. “Apothecary, follow me. Your relationship with Madam Yuan Mu is extremely good. If you step out and open up this line with Madam Yuan Mu, you will definitely be able to delay her for a period of time.”

Apothecary’s expression turned bitter. Village chief wanted him to sell his looks.

It wasn’t easy for him to make use of the Battle of South Heaven to escape from Madam Yuan Mu’s hands, and now he wanted to go back?

“Heavenly venerate Mu.”

Woodcutter smelled heaven pavilion, and the scholars were all misty. Old Farmer Zhuo Cha and fisherman Han Tang greeted Qin Mu. Qin Mu returned the greeting and asked woodcutter, “Why is teacher here?”

“The first heavenly king, Yanyue, succeeded the position of founding emperor, so we came to report to heavenly venerate mu. Does heavenly venerate mu want to go and watch the ceremony?”

“Emperor Yanyue became the second founding emperor?”

Qin Mu Thought for a moment and said, “Her ability can be said to be the number one person in carefree village, but it’s still much weaker than when founding emperor was at his peak. I’m living in seclusion now, so I won’t go.”

Woodcutter said, “If Emperor Yiyue becomes the second founding emperor, then the Heavenly Court will definitely make a move on carefree village. Can carefree village delay eternal peace for a period of time?”

Qin Mu gave him a deep look, he shook his head and said, “Using the power of carefree village to resist the punitive expedition of the Heavenly Court, being able to last for a year is already considered not bad. A heavenly venerate coming down to lead a million gods and devils is enough to destroy carefree village in a year!”

The old farmer Zhuo cha asked, “Is one year enough?”

“The time I need is at least twenty years.”

Qin Mu said, “Carefree village doesn’t have to die in vain. “If you really want to help eternal peace, then send all the skilled craftsmen of carefree village to eternal peace to help them forge heavy weapons for the Great War in twenty years! “Founding Emperor Qin Ye will appear in forty years.”

The hearts of the four heavenly teachers trembled violently, and they looked at each other.

Qin Mu smiled and said, “If you believe me, then hand over the future of carefree village to me. When Yu Chenzi was negotiating, carefree village was also a bargaining chip that could be used to sell.”

The Old Farmer Zhuo Cha was furious, and saint woodcutter understood his elegant intentions when he heard the strings. He smiled and said, “Carefree village is indeed a very good bargaining chip. Then, it’s settled.”

When he spoke, the other heavenly masters all shut their mouths and didn’t argue.

Qin Mu asked curiously, “The Four Heavenly Masters coming together definitely won’t be just for Di Yiyue becoming the second founding emperor, right? Is there anything else?”

Saint woodcutter said, “I’m here for a private matter. You are my disciple after all, so as a teacher, you should come personally to take a look. When you got married, did you see the congratulatory gift I sent?”

Qin Mu nodded his head, “I did.”

Saint woodcutter revealed an expectant look, “Can it make up for the deficiency of your technique?”

Qin Mu revealed a smile, “Logically speaking, it should be possible, but it’s even better that I found it!”

Saint Woodcutter’s beard trembled as he stretched out his hand to grab the axe on his back, qin Mu immediately smiled, “Teacher, I was joking with you. Look at how anxious you are. You Four Great Heavenly Masters are attacking together, yet you can’t even take a single move from me, don’t be angry.”

When he said this, Yan Yunxi, Zhuo Cha, and cold pond couldn’t help becoming furious.

Qin Mu immediately said, “It’s rare for four heavenly masters to come together, so I happen to have a difficult problem that I can’t solve for the time being. The four of you are wise and far-sighted, help me solve it.”

He threw out the difficult problem he had encountered in the Hall of chaos and used Dao language to speak about the evolution of Taiji path. It involved the evolution of yin and Yang and was profound and obscure.

Even though Qin Mu’s attainments in Taiji path were extremely high, he couldn’t solve it for a moment.

When the Four Heavenly Masters heard this dao question, they all frowned. The Old Farmer Zhuo Cha asked in a low voice, “What is he talking about?”

“He used Dao language to ask a question.”

Fisherman cold pond hesitated for a moment and said, “He’s talking about the evolution of Taiji.”

The old farmer Zhuo Cha’s face turned slightly red as he said, “What’s the point of making these strange things? Martial path is still simpler!”

Yan Yunxi, Saint Woodcutter, and cold pond all thought about it. After a moment, they began to communicate with each other again. They had also absorbed the results of eternal peace reform, so they each had their own achievements.

Cold Pond cultivated the path of Yin Yang Tai Chi, so there were two little red fish in the basket that represented his path of Yin Yang.

Yan Yunxi cultivated formations and all sorts of miscellaneous knowledge, so her attainments were also extremely high. She had also studied the four phases and eight trigrams of Yin Yang Tai Chi.

Saint Woodcutter’s knowledge was even more complicated.

The three of them thought hard for a long time, but they still couldn’t solve it. Qin Mu revealed a disappointed expression. Even he couldn’t solve this problem, and the four great heavenly masters of carefree village probably couldn’t either.

Suddenly.., saint woodcutter whispered, “Zixi, can you use the yang lines and yin lines of the eight trigrams to replace Zero and one? In this way, the evolution of yin and yang can be solved with algebra. “Even though I have a way to solve the problem, my attainments in algebra are not as good as yours...”

Yan Yunxi’s eyes lit up and she immediately focused on her calculations. After a moment, she clapped her hands and smiled. “I’ve solved this problem!”

Qin Mu was surprised and delighted. Yan Yunxi used her vital qi to evolve the process of solving the problem and repeated it once more. Yin lines and Yang lines were constantly changing in the air. They formed any number with zero and one, evolving endlessly!

Qin Mu came to a sudden realization and clapped his hands in admiration.

He immediately entered a meditative state, and his primordial spirit took a step toward Hall of chaos. Dao questions came from the Hall of Chaos, and Qin Mu’s primordial spirit answered them in Dao language, passing the test smoothly!

His primordial spirit took another step forward, and new Dao questions came from Hall of Chaos.

This dao question was the transformation of the shape, quality, and body of the Dao of Taisu, and it was also incomparably difficult.

Qin Mu pondered for a long time, but it was still difficult to solve it, so he retreated again.

When woodcutter and the other four heavenly masters saw him entering meditation, their cultivations and abilities rose quite a bit in a short while. They were all astonished.

Yan yunxi whispered to woodcutter, “He’s cultivating Ling Xiao Realm.”. After cultivating to Ling Xiao realm, there were 999 questions on the 999 stone steps of Ling Xiao Realm. After answering them, one could ascend to Ling Xiao Hall and advance to the next realm. “Answering one question will raise one’s cultivation realm.”

Woodcutter’s face turned slightly red. Among the Four Great Heavenly Masters, his intelligence was unparalleled, but his cultivation realm was the lowest. Even though he had obtained the benefits of eternal peace reform and passed through Heavenly Sea realm, he still didn’t dare to enter God execution stage realm.., let alone Ling Xiao Realm.

Qin Mu opened his eyes and threw out the sentence of Dao of Tai Su he had heard in excitement, looking forward to their answers.

However, the four of them didn’t have much understanding of the Dao of Tai Su. Their eyes turned black and they were unable to decipher the changes of their forms and three states.

Saint Woodcutter’s gaze flickered and reminded him, “Why not gather the wisdom of the people of the world to solve this difficult problem? Why do you have to catch the four of us to gnaw on? Why Don’t you gnaw on the people of the world?”

Qin Mu came to a sudden realization and bowed deeply to the ground. He thanked Saint Woodcutter and said with a smile, “Eternal Peace Reform has countless people with outstanding wisdom. I can seek advice from the people of the world! I Can’t decipher it, but there will be someone who can!”

He recorded this dao question in a divine mirror. As long as he stood in front of the mirror, it would send out dao question.

Qin Mu ordered someone to send this bright mirror to Eternal Peace Smell Dao College and waited quietly.

After more than ten days, Emperor Yanfeng ordered someone to bring back this bright mirror with a few young gods beside it.

“Junior Uncle Tongwen, together with these few partners, deciphered this dao question of heavenly venerate,”the young God bowed and said.

Qin Mu was overjoyed and humbly asked for advice.

After a long while, Uncle Tongwen and the rest left with a bright mirror and returned to Smell Dao College. They hung the new bright mirror in front of the door.

In the bright mirror was a new dao question regarding the path of supreme incipient.

When supreme incipient heard the news, he came over. When he heard the question, he took off the bright mirror and went to Surging River Heavenly Palace.

Two days later, supreme incipient returned from Surging River Heavenly Palace and hung a bright mirror in front of the door of Smell Dao College.

A few days later, Xu Mengqing, who had come to study, took off the bright mirror and said with a smile, “My father told me about this question two days ago!”

A few days later, Xu Mengqing returned to Dao Wen Academy with a new question. Eternal Peace Imperial preceptor also heard about it and came to listen to Dao questions. After hearing it, he smiled and said, “I can solve it.”After saying that, he took off the bright mirror and went to Surging River Heavenly Palace.

In surging River Heavenly Palace, Qin Mu was in high spirits as he continued to refine new bright mirrors, allowing the person who solved the difficult questions to bring the new bright mirror back to Eternal Peace Smell Dao College.

Usually, it wouldn’t take more than ten days for someone to solve it and come to surging river heavenly palace.

This had almost become a grand event in Eternal Peace Smell Dao College, and it was very lively. Every time a new bright mirror was hung up, countless young talents and existences who had been famous for a long time would come forth to try and solve the problem!

And when the questions were answered, it would definitely cause a wave of cheers.

Finally, on this day, as the last question was answered, Qin Mu’s primordial spirit also stepped onto the highest level of the stone steps in Hall of Chaos. No new stone steps appeared.

He composed himself and suppressed the excitement in his heart as he looked at Hall of Chaos.
