The round egg still wasnât cracked open. Qin Mu attended to Wei Suifengâs injuries and set his broken bones. Wei Suifeng shook his arm and looked at the large round egg, solemnly saying, âYou saw it? What Great Dao is it?â
Qin Mu nodded with a solemnity never before seen and said, âI saw it, and I heard it. This is indeed an ancient god egg with an extremely unique ancient god inside. Once he matures, he wonât pale in comparison to the ancient Celestial Emperor. The Great Dao inside seems to be a formless energy of both the living and the dead. It exerts great pressure on Celestial Venerable Lingâs unchanging substance! Have you heard of such a Great Dao, Big Brother?â
Unchanging substance met its bane for the first time. It was a divine art on the state of substance. Meanwhile, Yin and Yangâs combination was a formless energy with no substance. It was the opposite of Celestial Venerable Lingâs divine art.
Wei Suifeng shook his head and said, âIâve seen most of the ancient godsâ Great Dao. Iâve even been to Dao Ancestorâs Guardian Pavilion. There were no records of such a Great Dao that can pressure Celestial Venerable Lingâs divine art. Iâve never heard of it.â
They walked around the egg several times, feeling troubled. However, Wei Suifeng and the warriors of the Feathered Forest Guards were excited. If they could use it to break the unchanging substance divine art, they could get out of the state of being an unchanging substance of the ghost ship and be free!
Qin Muâs gaze flashed as he said, âPerhaps this ancient god may be the key to rescuing you all and saving Celestial Venerable Ling⌠The ancient Celestial Emperorâs name is Tai Chu, a name given by the Grand Emperor. Since Iâm fated with the ancient god in the egg, I shall name it Tai Shi.â
Wei Suifeng couldnât help but warn him, saying, âBrother, if this ancient god gets out of its egg, it might become another ancient Celestial Emperor!â
Qin Mu put away the egg and said, âTai Chu was a saint born from the Grand Primordium Divine Stone mine, and he harnessed the power there to mature. This Tai Shi egg likely needs another special power to mature, such as the mine in the ancestral court. If we keep it, it canât be born, but I can study its Great Dao.â
Wei Suifeng was slightly unnerved as he said, âThen, you must remember, Brother, to never take it to the ancestral court. Or elseâŚâ
Qin Mu nodded solemnly and soon took out all sorts of treasures that he looted from Clear Sun Hall. They were all over the deck. There were things like divine mountains and treasure mountains, which were heavenly treasures!
Wei Suifeng was shocked, and he cried out, âBrother, did you raid Celestial Emperorâs vault? So many treasures!â
âYep!â Qin Mu said in a gleeful and loud voice.
Wei Suifeng looked at the treasures and was moved. Such treasures were rare even with the ancient gods, yet they were all on the ship!
âSo many treasuresâŚâ
He inhaled the cold air and moved to touch a dragon blood treasure tree. As soon as he touched it, it glowed.
Wei Suifeng felt that it had a strange intimacy with vital qi besides the closeness one felt from being under the tree. One seemed to be able to stay in a state of comprehension at any time!
What was more peculiar was that if vital qi imprinted runes on the leaves of the tree, the process would be extraordinarily likely to succeed!
âYou can definitely forge this tree into a great treasure!â
Wei Suifeng was astounded as he mumbled, âYou can forge impressive treasures even with one branch, enough for a strong practitioner of the Emperorâs Throne to use! I went to the Dragon Han Era a long time ago and even became the general of the Feathered Forest Guards, so Iâve seen a lot. Iâve seen many treasures, but none as grand as these. Iâve only seen one that was better than what you looted from Celestial Emperorâs vault.â
Qin Mu took out the remaining fragments of the Grand Primordium Origin Stone and searched them. He felt relaxed after making sure that there was no residue of the Grand Emperorâs consciousness on them. He curiously asked, âWhose treasure could be above the collection of Celestial Emperorâs family?â
The Grand Emperorâs Grand Primordium Origin Stone was shattered into many pieces. He gave one of the larger pieces to Celestial Venerable Yun, while he planned to forge the remaining pieces into his third eye.
He tried to piece it together, but he failed to make a complete one. He was likely still missing a couple of pieces.
âNorth Deity Xuan Wuâs family had a treasure that was otherworldly!â
Wei Suifeng talked about it and praised it. He said, âThey are said to have collected many primordial treasures, forging them into a great treasure called the Glassy Sky Pagoda. I saw it once. Prince You Ming allowed me to see it. It was the best treasure in the world. No other treasure can compete with it. You stole many treasures from Celestial Emperor, but none can compare to the Glassy Sky Pagoda.â
Qin Mu picked up a piece of the Grand Primordium Origin Stone and sent it to the heart of his brows. Suddenly, power surged forth and captured it.
It entered the heart of his brows and fused with the Grand Primordium Origin Stone in his third eye!
Qin Mu was satisfied and grabbed another piece of it.
âThe Glassy Sky Pagoda? The one that was stolen away from Prince You Ming? Is the pagoda really so powerful that even Celestial Emperorâs treasures canât compete with it?â
He thought about it. North Deity Xuan Wu was made up of two ancient gods visualized by the Yushi Clan, which was the Grand Emperorâs clan, the strongest of the primordial era. They had a lot of resources.
They probably raided Ju Yushiâs vault during the battle between the ancient gods and the masters of creation.
Wei Suifeng recalled when he saw the pagoda and praised it again, âTruly the number one treasure beneath the heavens! If you see it, youâll be shocked too. It was extremely exceptional. Once you bow to it and worship it, it becomes the 24 Glassy Heavens, which makes it invincible!â
Qin Mu put the rest of the Grand Primordium Origin Stone into the heart of his brows, and it fused with his third eye to become one.
He blinked and found nothing different, but when he utilized the Overlord Body Three Elixir Technique, his consciousness improved by leaps and bounds, several times faster than before, in fact!
He sighed. âThe Grand Emperor was able to become the Grand Emperor for a reason. If my consciousness can be elevated so quickly with what is, at best, half of the Grand Primordium Origin Stone, I can hardly imagine how fast oneâs consciousness would be elevated if they had the complete Grand Primordium Origin Stone!â
Wei Suifeng was still thinking about the Glassy Sky Pagoda as he said to himself with fascination, âThere are more treasures on the pagoda than the ones you stole from Celestial Emperorâs vaultâŚâ
âBrother, most of these treasures come from the ancestral court. Pick one.â Qin Mu invited him to take one.
Wei Suifeng snapped out of his thoughts and walked between the treasures to check their quality. However, the more he inspected them, the harder it was for him to choose.
The treasures were carefully chosen by the masters of creation over a long period of time. They were exceptional. Even if one were to search the entire universe, it would be hard to find even one of them, much less in the Primordial Realm!
Those left were probably in the hands of powerful ancient gods or half-god leaders!
Wei Suifeng took a long time to pick, as he wanted everything. In the end, he chose a divine mountain, explaining, âThe brothers on the ghost ship followed me for so many years. When weâre free, weâll probably be outdated. The Jade Capital Realm and Numinous Sky Realm from back then are probably more similar to the Jade Pool Realm of today. Iâll refine it to become a treasure that everyone can use to boost their power. Can you give these palace lanterns to me as well?â
Qin Mu nodded, for they were the guardians of the treasures in the vault. They were useless to him, only occupying space in the Qin word land.
Wei Suifeng took them and said, âThey were forged with heavy treasure too. With so many of them, I can modify them to form a grand thousand-lantern formation to protect the ship.â
Qin Mu put away the other treasures and looked at the Feathered Forest Guards on the ship. âThey were the most exceptional talents chosen from each race. If they could cultivate in Eternal Peace for several years, their power would grow immensely. Their future accomplishments wouldnât be limited!â
Wei Suifeng glanced at him and said, âThatâs determined by your ability to save us.â
Qin Mu frowned. He wasnât confident about breaking Celestial Venerable Lingâs unchanging substance unless he could research the Great Dao of the ancient god Tai Shi.
âI stayed for some time under each Celestial Venerable of the celestial heavens. Although I didnât learn their true capabilities, I saw many Emperorâs Throne techniques.â
Wei Suifeng refurbished the Heavenly Dragon Treasure Carriage for him, then blinked and said, âI couldnât learn many of them, but I copied them down. Follow my map, and you shall find them.â
Qin Mu didnât know whether to laugh or cry as he said, âWhy wouldnât you just impart them to me? Why make a map?â
Wei Suifeng shook his head and said, âIt was hard for me to hide from the Celestial Venerables while being in the celestial heavens. I didnât know when I would die, so I hid the Emperorâs Throne techniques that I collected in places I traveled to. Brother, Celestial Venerable Lingâs letter is also at one of those places. After youâve saved South Deity, you must head there.â
Qin Mu smiled and said, âWhy donât you impart them to me here? Why make me go searching for them via your map?â
He suddenly realized why and guessed, âUnless⌠you didnât learn them?â
Wei Suifeng blushed as he resentfully said, âWhy would I not be able to? Iâm just not good at learning other peopleâs techniques. I just absorbed parts of their techniques and fused them into my Celestial Dipper Technique. Iâll walk my own path. If Iâm going to become a saint, why would I not be able to learn them? HeheâŚâ
The smile on his face gradually became twisted.
Qin Mu stopped messing with him. Wei Suifeng was Saint Woodcutterâs most precious disciple. Amongst the three of them, Wei Suifeng followed Saint Woodcutter the longest, and he likely also took on his bad habit of biting off more than he could chew.
Wei Suifeng was still better than Woodcutter, for his cultivation path contained 360 professions and Postcelestial Great Daos. This was also the origin of the 360 halls of the Heavenly Saint Cult.
It was the reason that his realm was fixed in the Jade Stage Realm. He couldnât enter the God Execution Stage for his entire life.
With 360 Postcelestial Great Daos, his primordial spirit would be cut 360 times if it was on the God Execution Stage!
With his bad habit, he would probably die and whine after one cleave.
Wei Suifeng was greedy too, but at least he reached the Emperorâs Throne Realm.
The ghost ship rose out of the water and sailed within the mist of the celestial river.
âBrother, you are left with only four chances.â
Wei Suifeng saw the treasure carriage drive out of the ship and reminded him, âDonât waste your chances on saving South Deity. You can save some chances to do more meaningful things.â
Qin Mu peeked out from the window and waved at him. âI mostly succeeded the last time, I definitely can this time!â
âDonât talk nonsense.â
Wei Suifeng was clearly nervous as he said, âI feel that you are a jinx. Every time you say that, you fail.â
Qin Mu laughed and returned to his carriage. Leisurely songs came from his mouth. In the mist, his singing sounded rich and leisurely, like warm old wine. It gave people a feeling of melancholy and boldness.
âToday, Iâm at the Grand Overarching Heaven!
âIn the depths of drunkenness, I see an ethereal jade capital mountain. Iâll sing until my steps are shaky. What year is it now?â
âWater and fields!â
Wei Suifeng listened to him as he watched the carriage disappearing into the mist. He shook his head and said, âFrivolous, who did he learn it from?â
The cult masters of the Heavenly Saint Cult were multi-talented ever since his generation. Back then, Wei Suifeng was a casual and dissolute degenerate. He knew that Qin Mu was using songs to boost his morale from his choice of lyrics.
What year is it now?
Iâm at the Grand Overarching Heaven!
âBrotherâs ambition is visible!â Wei Suifeng said, astounded.
The singing stopped as the carriage reached the celestial river and drove towards the Heaven Han Celestial Heavens.
âI left a letter telling South Deity to find Celestial Venerable Yue and give her a feather. I also asked her to secretly split part of her soul for reincarnation. All we need to do is find that feather, and we can complete the journey.â
Qin Mu was brimming with confidence as he looked at the Heaven Han Celestial Heavens. It was larger than before again, which made him feel estranged.
Far away, one could hear a lady singing on the celestial river. Her singing was melodious and calming. âHundreds of rivers flow into the ocean, the stars coalesce around the North Star. They shine on the Heaven Han and create large ferries for merchants.â
âSailing through heaven and earth, the kings save their people. While places are cleansed, heroes will gather.â
Qin Mu looked towards the singing and saw a red-clad lady flying with the wind from the front of a boat. She sang towards the Heaven Han Celestial Heavens with an unspeakable charisma.
Qin Mu couldnât help but be attracted. He ordered the dragon qilin to stop so he could listen to her.

Yanâer smiled and said, âSurprisingly, this lady is somewhat similar to me, Master.â
Her voice alerted the lady. She came to look and was visibly displeased, as the one who said that was a fat green sparrow that was almost horizontal. She said, âWhere am I similar to this silly sparrow?â
However, Yanâerâs words enlightened Qin Mu. He looked at her and found that she was indeed similar to Yanâer. He remarked, âIndeed!â
Her dress fluttered, and on the back of her head was a vermillion bird feather. She furiously said, âWhere? Sheâs so fat!â
