Qin Mu executed his Overlord Body Three Elixir Technique to mobilize his vital qi and stimulate the Profound Creation Technique to defend against the invasion of Yin and yang. He then rushed into the mountain path.
Soon, he came to the end of the mountain path and met as many as a hundred stone statues. Some of these masters of creation were invaded by the Dao of Yin and Yang and turned into stone statues while others died on their way back.
One could see how terrifying this mine was.
Qin Mu circulated the Profound Creation Technique not only to resist the invasion of the Dao of Yin and Yang, but also to adjust the structure of his corporeal body and primordial spirit to their optimal state.
However, the Dao of Yin and Yang would also change his vital qi and divine consciousness, making his vital qi no longer pure and his divine consciousness no longer perfect. This was the most terrifying part!
Changing his vital qi and divine consciousness to disintegrate his cultivation was something he had never seen before!
“People say that there’s no superior and inferior in terms of different Dao yet there is a difference. This Dao of Yin and Yang is indeed slightly superior to the Path of Creation.”
He carefully checked his body and controlled his vital qi. He could only barely protect himself. If he brought Yan’er and the dragon qilin along, he wouldn’t be able to protect them.
“This mine is sentient, which means that the entire mine is alive!”
He looked around. Anything in the mining area could change its form at any time, transforming into all kinds of dangers and transforming into different life forms. He had to guard against it.
He stepped into the mine, and there were traces left behind by the masters of creation. The masters of creation who had painstakingly come to this place had never expected it to be so dangerous. They were mining here, and their bodies and souls had unknowingly changed. By the time they realized it, it was too late.
Qin Mu used the Glassy Sky Pagoda to advance along the mine. The Glassy Sky Pagoda had already become rusty, and the 28 heavens were dim. The treasures in it had also become dim.
“It won’t be easy to mine Grand Extremes Divine Stones here. I can’t use the Glassy Sky Pagoda to suppress the strangeness of the mine.” He frowned.
This mine was different from the chaos mine. The mine was exposed to the outside, and there were pieces of Grand Extremes Divine Stones embedded in the rocks on the mountain wall.
The state of the divine stone and even the mountain was also changing continuously. It was as if a droplet of ink had landed onto the surface of the dough and was slowly stirring around.
Qin Mu put away the Glassy Sky Pagoda. Even though it was powerful, it didn’t seem to be of much use here.
He picked up the pickaxe left behind by the masters of creation and was about to pry down a Grand Extremes Divine Stone when the mountain wall suddenly changed. Black and white colours flowed out and slowly transformed into a human face.
Qin Mu was astonished as he saw the black and white colours continue to flow. The human face became clearer, and a body grew out again. Four limbs grew out, and in his hand was a pickaxe.
The image on the mountain wall was exactly the same as Qin Mu, except that it was monochrome.
Qin Mu examined himself on the mountain wall, yet the image on the mountain wasn’t the least bit curious. Instead, he raised his pickaxe and made a chopping motion!
Whoosh—
The pickaxe actually came out from the mountain wall and became corporeal, raising a gale to chop down on Qin Mu’s head!
The divine eye in the heart of Qin Mu’s brows opened up, and a ray of light shot out, shattering the pickaxe into pieces. The mountain wall Qin Mu revealed a look of astonishment. He suddenly leaped up, and the handle of the pickaxe in his hand transformed into a broken sword. Sword light poured out like a waterfall from the mountain wall!
The moves and divine arts he executed were actually Qin Mu’s Raising Calamity Sword, which was almost identical to Qin Mu’s sword skills!
In fact, the density of his vital qi was even denser than Qin Mu’s!
The power of his sword move was even stronger, but Qin Mu pulled out the broken sword. His vital qi circulated, and the broken sword was restored to its original state. He swung his sword hand and blocked all of his sword moves on the mountain wall before stabbing the heart of his brows.
Qin Mu returned the sword back into its sheath and said with a smile, “Those who study from me live, those who copy from me die. This Dao brother in the mine, you haven’t experienced wordly affairs, so it’s hard for you to understand my paths, skills, and divine arts.”
The Qin Mu on the mountain wall was stabbed to death by him, and his body dispersed, still transforming into black and white.
Qin Mu was about to pry down that piece of Grand Extremes Divine Stone when the black and white colours on the mountain wall suddenly flowed again. The white on the mountain wall transformed into the image of an elder with white eyebrows, white beard, and white eyes, while the black transformed into the image of Earth Count with a bull head, a tiger face, and three eyes.
Qin Mu was stunned. He saw that on the two walls of the mine, the black and white Grand Extremes Divine Stones was transforming unceasingly. On the two mountain walls, the images of Heaven Duke and Earthly Count appeared one after another. For every Heaven Duke that appeared with a kind expression, a fierce-looking Earth Count was complementing.
Cold sweat broke out on Qin Mu’s forehead. The mine was curved, and on the curved mountain wall, Heaven Duke and Earth Count opened their eyes. Even though they were living on the mountain wall, they looked at him in unison.
Qin Mu clenched his fists and sneered, “This Dao brother in the mine, you are merely borrowing Yin and Yang to transform into Heaven Duke and Earth Count. Can you transform into the Great Dao of Xuandu and Youdu?”
Just as he said that, the Heaven Duke and Earth Count on the mountain wall suddenly made their moves. Heavenly Dao divine arts and Youdu divine arts burst forth from the mountain wall, and there was even the whip of the nether river. The Celestial River and the Nine Bends Yellow Springs spiralled around each other and occupied the skies.
49 Heavenly Daos and 64 Great Daos of Youdu burst forth from the mountain wall!
The dragon qilin and Yan’er were cultivating at the foot of the mountain, and Tiny Earth Count was trying to climb up the mountain to catch some strange beast for food. However, the dragon qilin raised his claws to press down on the tiger’s tail, and he tried to climb up a few times but was still pulled back.
The void beast drooled as it stared at the primordial behemoths that appeared and disappeared unpredictably. It wanted to go up the mountain, but it could clearly feel the danger. In addition to Qin Mu’s order, it didn’t dare to move.
At that moment, the dragon qilin and Yan’er woke up. They turned their heads to look at the mountain, only to see all kinds of light spewing out from the mountain!
The sound of the Dao reverberated and roared continuously, forming a terrifying phenomenon.
“Young Master, he…”
Just as Yan’er said that, a figure flew up high and fell out of the mountain. He landed in front of them with a thud and faced the ground with half his head buried in the black sand.
The dragon qilin immediately went forward and was about to help Qin Mu up.
“Don’t touch me, it’s fractured!” Qin Mu’s voice rang out.
The dragon qilin jumped in shock and immediately asked, “Cult Master, where did you fracture?”
“My entire body is fractured…” Qin Mu trembled in pain.
The dragon qilin and Yan’er looked at each other in dismay. They immediately grabbed Tiny Earth Count that was about to go up the mountain and scolded him, “Even Young Master has been beaten up like this, and you still want to go up and die? Go stand over there!”
The tiny Earth Count lowered his head and came to the corner of the wall unwillingly. He looked at his hooves dejectedly and didn’t say a word, feeling very wronged.
Qin Mu executed his creation techniques to treat the injuries on his body. When his injuries were completely healed, he rested for a moment and sneered, “You think you can make me retreat just like that? Not so easy!”
He was brimming with murderous intent as he raised his sword as he walked up the mountain.
The dragon qilin and Yan’er had worried expressions as they watched him enter the mountain.
Qin Mu came to the mine and walked forward with his sword in hand. He looked straight ahead and saw that on both sides of the mountain wall, the black and white Grand Extremes Divine Stones were swirling. Heaven Duke and Earth Count slowly appeared like murals.
Those Heaven Duke’s palms moved, and 49 arms appeared. 49 hands each held a treasure of the Heavenly Dao. There was no repetition of the Outline, Seal, Umbrella, Abyss, Pit, Rope, Bamboo, Place, Gate, and so on.
Meanwhile, those Earth Counts shook gently, and 64 arms appeared. Each of them held Talisman, Ship, Whip, Horn, Eye, Kui, Lamp, and other things in their hands.
“Divine Treasure Domain!”
Qin Mu executed Overlord Body Three Elixir Technique and gave a low shout. His realm expanded frantically!
