Chapter 1264 - Going Up To The Nine Heavens, Going Down To The Nine Springs

Celestial Venerable Hao hurriedly stood up and felt a chill down his spine. However, when he saw that Celestial Venerable Mu and the heart devils hadn't revived, he let out a sigh of relief. "Without the power of the heart devils, you are far from my match…"

Boom, boom, boom!

The qi and blood in his body spewed out like a violent tide, rushing his head up from his neck. The thirty-five celestial palaces had almost completely collapsed!

When he had clashed with Qin Mu earlier, his injuries had worsened. His injuries were extremely severe, and he had relied on swallowing and refining Celestial Venerable Mu to recover. However, Woodcutter's restoration divine art had pushed back the thirty-five celestial palaces that he had painstakingly sent out of his body, almost killing him.

In the battle with Martial Arts Heavenly Teacher and Bai Yujing, his injuries had worsened.

When he had clashed with Qin Mu earlier, his injuries were no longer suppressed.

Even if Qin Mu didn't have the Mental Demon Celestial Venerable Mu to control, he couldn't continue fighting.

He had to find a safe place to transform his celestial palace into a cocoon of the Great Dao and swallow foreign objects to heal his injuries.

Previously, as long as he healed his injuries, his cultivation would rise to a whole new level, and he would surpass what he was before. However, after the torment of Woodcutter, Qin Mu, and the rest, even if his injuries were fully healed, the Dao injuries of the thirty-five celestial palaces would probably not be able to heal. His cultivation would be much weaker than before, and he didn't know how long it would take for him to return to his peak state!

"What's more, if this continues, I'll really die…"

The divine blood in Celestial Venerable Hao's neck spewed out, expelling the excess qi and blood out of his body. His head then flew back.

He no longer hesitated and flew backward. Before his feet even landed on the ground, the ground suddenly exploded, and his body rushed into the sky.

Qin Mu controlled his divine treasure realm to arrive in an instant, crushing the place where he had just stood. He then rose into the air, and countless sword lights burst forth from his divine treasure realm. They pierced through his body like comets one after another!

Countless sword lights gathered behind Celestial Venerable Hao, and they actually formed a sword realm behind him!

Celestial Venerable Hao's hair stood on end, and he suddenly opened his mouth to roar. In the midst of his roar, countless markings tunneled out from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. They quickly formed cocoons, and in an instant, they surrounded him densely.

Qin Mu's sword realm burst forth, tearing apart the Dao cocoon that had yet to take shape. God's blood spewed out from the sky.

Celestial Venerable Hao shouted, and the Grand Emperor's Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven flew out to meet Qin Mu's sword realm. Qin Mu clenched his five fingers, and the sword realm that was expanding suddenly contracted. It barely brushed past the Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven without touching it.

The Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven was the Grand Emperor's divine art. This divine art trapped Celestial Venerable Hao's primordial spirit. Can Nü's Seven Souls Grass was made from consciousness sacrifice. It could pass through the Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven without triggering its power.

The Seven Souls Grass entered the Great Overarching Heaven and took root in Celestial Venerable Hao's primordial spirit like a fish in water, absorbing nutrients and refining his soul.

However, if Qin Mu's sword realm touched the Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven, he would be tricked by Celestial Venerable Hao.

When the power of the Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven burst forth, not only would it heavily injure Qin Mu, it would also give Celestial Venerable Hao's primordial spirit a chance to escape!

Celestial Venerable Hao sighed in pity and accelerated into the sky. Beyond the sky was the entrance to the Great Void, and there were definitely armies of the celestial heavens that had escaped.

The celestial heavens would definitely receive news of his battle with the Grand Emperor, and his direct descendants would definitely rush to the Great Void. As long as he walked out, he would be safe!

At this moment, Qin Mu opened his five fingers and smacked his palm towards the sky.

Celestial Venerable Hao rose higher into the sky. At that moment, he saw the sky becoming thinner, becoming less thick.

His body was even stretched, as though it was going to become incomparably thin along with the sky. In the end, it turned into void!

Great Overarching Heaven Completion!

"It was indeed you who stole Clear Sun Hall with Celestial Venerable Yun!"

Celestial Venerable Hao's heart stirred slightly. Back then, when he and Celestial Venerable Yun stole Clear Sun Hall one after another, they met another expert and executed this move. However, their magic power was far inferior to his, so he used his overflowing magic power to forcefully break it.

Now that Qin Mu had executed this move again, he immediately recognized it.

Qin Mu's voice rang out. "Celestial Venerable Hao, you had magic power to break my divine art back then. Do you still have it?"

"There's no more, but I refined the Connate Qi!"

Countless wounds opened up on Celestial Venerable Hao's body, and he abandoned a portion of his cultivation that he couldn't suppress. His body trembled slightly, merging with Qin Mu's Great Overarching Heaven. With a slight shake, he escaped from the Great Overarching Heaven Completion.

Qin Mu was astonished, and two arms popped out from under his armpits. The four arms grabbed towards the center, and the celestial river surged forth, surrounding Celestial Venerable Hao. The four poles rose up with a hum!

Green Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise appeared and attacked Celestial Venerable Hao in the center!

Celestial River Viewing the Four Poles!

Boom—

Celestial Venerable Hao vomited blood and fell from the sky like a comet crashing into the land of the Great Void. Flames instantly rushed into the sky, and a mushroom cloud rose.

Qin Mu's head went down, and his palm pressed down. His palm force landed on the place where Celestial Venerable Hao had fallen, but the ground didn't sink. Instead, it rose from the ground with a boom.

His Great Dao law formed a Primordial Tree in the Great Void. The Primordial Tree propped up Celestial Venerable Hao's tattered body and met Qin Mu's palm.

The Primordial Tree quickly grew to the top of the mushroom cloud and collided with Qin Mu's palm print. Violent tremors spread out in all directions, forming a circle of white light in the sky. The white light was like a knife that sliced horizontally in all directions, as though it wanted to slice the sky of the Land of the Great Void in half.

The instant Qin Mu's palm force struck, Celestial Venerable Hao's figure suddenly vanished. In the next instant, he appeared in the Great Void and Youdu. With a loud bang, he crashed into the ground and tumbled like a scarecrow. He bounced up and down, then bounced up again, rolling for an unknown distance.

He used the qi of the First Heaven to transform into the Great Dao of Youdu and hid in Youdu, avoiding Qin Mu's killer move.

Bang, bang, bang—

As he rolled, his corporeal body exploded continuously, trying his best to disperse the excess energy in his body. Even if he had to cripple a portion of his cultivation, as long as he could escape from Qin Mu's hands, he was willing to do so!

He only needed to escape to Son of Heaven Yin's territory, and Qin Mu couldn't do anything to him. Son of Heaven Yin and him were on the same side, and he had been taking care of him for the past million years. Son of Heaven Yin would definitely be able to protect him!

However, the sky of the Great Void and Youdu suddenly split open, and huge pillars of darkness rose from the ground. The pillars that rose from the ground were filled with thick black smoke, and along with the flames, the flames swirled on the pillars, and densely packed Youdu Great Dao runes appeared.

"Brother Hao, Youdu isn't Son of Heaven Yin's territory, it's mine!"

Qin Mu's huge body descended from the sky. When he landed on the ground, he had already transformed into a devil god with the head of a bull, the body of a human, and the face of a tiger. He was like an ancient god born from the first death, controlling all souls.

The markings on the black pillars that were filled with flames appeared, becoming clearer. They transformed into the faces of Earth Count. Earth Count's three eyes rolled as he stared at the rolling Celestial Venerable Hao.

Buzz—

All the pillars shone brightly, and the three eyes of Earth Count on the pillars shot out beams of devil light. They crisscrossed and sealed off the area of a thousand miles!

Chapter 1264 Pt.2 - Tarnish His Name And Destroy His Corpse

When Celestial Venerable Hao touched these rays of light, he felt as if he was struck by lightning. The primordial spirit in his Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven trembled continuously, and more energy was sucked away by the Seven Souls Grass.

This Seven Souls Grass was the sacred object of the masters of creation. At that moment, it was almost full, and its entire body was giving off a milky white glow. It couldn't eat anymore.

This Seven Soul Grass flew out from the heart of Celestial Venerable Hao's brows and tunneled into the ground, vanishing without a trace.

"Little grass, you're really useless!"

The Earth Count that Qin Mu had transformed into walked over with huge steps, and the devil qi around his body was boundless. With a raise of his hand, the Great Dao of Youdu transformed into the Styx River, and the Styx River River became a long whip that lashed onto Celestial Venerable Hao's body. Celestial Venerable Hao spun like a top, spinning around in the Youdu formation and colliding with the devil lights one after another!

In the Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven, Celestial Venerable Hao's soul was emitting black smoke. This whip was a whip used to whip the primordial spirit. This devil light was also a devil light used to refine the primordial spirit. Qin Mu was clearly using Youdu's geographical advantage to refine his primordial spirit and soul!

Qin Mu swung his whip continuously, and Celestial Venerable Hao couldn't avoid it at all. His primordial spirit was getting more injured. His primordial spirit could still withstand the Grand Emperor's Great Overarching Consciousness Heaven, but with Qin Mu's attacks on his primordial spirit, he could feel his primordial spirit rapidly weakening!

Qin Mu's goal wasn't to destroy his primordial spirit by himself. Qin Mu also couldn't destroy his primordial spirit. Even if ten more stalks of Seven Souls Grass came, they wouldn't be able to absorb all the energy in his primordial spirit.

Qin Mu's goal was to weaken his primordial spirit and let the Grand Emperor's Grand Overarching Consciousness Heaven destroy him!

Celestial Venerable Hao felt a deep sense of fear. Qin Mu's wisdom was too terrifying and deep. He was borrowing all the power he could borrow just to kill him!

The greater danger was that his cultivation was hard to suppress.

If this continued, the chaotic energy in his body would definitely blow him to pieces and scatter his soul!

Whoosh—

He dispersed another celestial palace, then another. In just a short while, Celestial Venerable Hao dispersed ten celestial palaces, no longer reluctant to part with his cultivation.

After dispersing these celestial palaces, the feeling of exploding at any moment was slightly better.

His heart was bleeding. After dispersing these celestial palaces, he didn't know when he would be able to cultivate back. However, it was also because dispersing these celestial palaces gave him some breathing room.

With a loud rumble, he shattered a huge black pillar and escaped from the Youdu formation.

Behind him, Qin Mu raised a fist the size of a mountain and punched the back of his heart, knocking him to the ground and sending him tumbling into the distance.

Pa—

The Nether River whip swept over, and Celestial Venerable Hao was struck in midair. Blood flowed out of his seven orifices, and he spun frantically. The blood from his seven orifices swirled around his body.

Qin Mu whipped his whip again, and at the same time, his huge head stretched forward. The vertical eye of Earth Count at the heart of his brows opened up, and countless gorgeous butterfly wing-shaped Dao markings flowed out from the vertical eye.

Buzz—

A devil light brush that was as thick as a pillar shot out and pierced through Celestial Venerable Hao's body, nailing him to the ground. It pushed his body forward several hundred miles and crashed through mountains.

Those mountains were directly sliced into two by the devil light!

Suddenly, Celestial Venerable Hao's figure vanished again. He mobilized the qi of the First Heaven to escape from the Great Void and Youdu to the Land of the Great Void.

"Escape? Can you escape from my grasp?"

The Earth Count that Qin Mu had transformed into sprinted forward, and in a few steps, he crashed into the land of the Great Void from the Great Void. His body transformed from Earth Count to Heaven Duke, and he raised his hands up high. The stars in the sky suddenly appeared!

The stars grew larger, as if they were getting closer to the Land of the Great Void. The stars were as big as pipes, umbrellas, seals, crystals, fans, spoons, lids, and so on. They formed all kinds of Heavenly Dao treasures and smashed towards Celestial Venerable Hao who had yet to stop!

Forty-nine Heavenly Dao treasures bombarded down continuously, and the ground trembled. Mushroom clouds rose one after another, and every mushroom cloud was hundreds of miles away. It was an extremely spectacular sight.

In the main camp of the celestial heavens, the gods of the Heavenly Eye Race looked around, and their expressions couldn't help changing drastically. They hurriedly reported to the city lords of the various cities, shouting, "Bad news! Celestial Venerable Mu is chasing after Celestial Venerable Hao! From Youdu to the Great Void, he has fought for thousands of miles!"

The people guarding the god cities were all top-notch experts of the celestial heavens. There were heavenly teachers, heavenly kings, and also the four deities. When they heard this, they all laughed. "You're talking nonsense again! Celestial Venerable Mu, you're just a brat. However, how could you have the ability to kill Celestial Venerable Hao just because of your identity? Celestial Venerable Hao even killed him with a sneeze!"

"It's true!"

The generals of the celestial heavens' camp climbed up the city tower or floated high up in the sky to look. When they saw Qin Mu chasing after Celestial Venerable Hao, they couldn't help looking at each other in dismay. Everyone's faces were ashen.

That scene was indeed Qin Mu chasing after Celestial Venerable Hao!

The difference in cultivation between Qin Mu and Celestial Venerable Hao was more than a thousand miles. Yet now, Celestial Venerable Hao was unable to resist Qin Mu's pursuit and could only run for his life. He couldn't even escape!

The generals of the celestial heavens were dumbstruck and didn't know what to do.

Seeing Celestial Venerable Hao getting beaten up by Qin Mu would result in death. Because Celestial Venerable Hao had lost face in front of the celestial heavens' main camp, he would probably feel even worse than being killed. One could imagine the consequences of knowing this secret!

"Lock down the news!"

The generals of the celestial heavens had the same idea. They had to seal off the news and prevent it from spreading throughout the entire army. Celestial Venerable Hao was the face of the celestial heavens. It was a small matter if Celestial Venerable Hao was beaten up, but the morale of the celestial heavens was huge!

If the various armies developed a fear of Qin Mu, Celestial Venerable Hao would kill them to save face. This would be a huge blow to the celestial heavens!

'I have to report this to Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu!'

The second thought had just appeared in their minds when they immediately went to inform Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu. However, these two Celestial Venerables were severely injured and were currently recuperating in seclusion.

The generals waited for a moment, but they didn't receive Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu's summons. They were like ants on a hot pan, pacing back and forth.

"We should save Celestial Venerable Hao first!"

Suddenly, West Heaven White Deity cried out, "If we let Celestial Venerable Mu do what he wants, Celestial Venerable Hao will be doomed!"

Green Deity of the Eastern Sky glanced at him and said, "Good idea! Dao Friend White Deity, quickly go and save Celestial Venerable Hao. We'll go later!"

White Deity hesitated. "This fellow is of Celestial Venerable Xiao's bloodline, so why is he so keen to let me save Celestial Venerable Hao? That's right, I'll save Celestial Venerable Hao. I know Celestial Venerable Hao was beaten up so badly by Celestial Venerable Mu, so I'm doomed!"

He didn't say anything else. The other heavenly kings and heavenly teachers also looked at each other and muttered to themselves.

After a moment, the second heavenly master, Meng Yungui, coughed and said, "We will each send a great general to chase after Celestial Venerable Mu. As for the rest, we know nothing."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded silently.

Right at this moment, the Heavenly Eye General hurriedly reported, "Bad news! Celestial Venerable Hao was hacked into the city by Celestial Venerable Mu!"

The heavenly teachers, heavenly kings, and the colored deities cried out, their hearts turning cold. Celestial Venerable Hao's reputation was going to be completely ruined!

"What should I do…" Meng Yungui muttered, feeling deeply helpless.
