Chi Xiâs cultivation was profound after all, so he immediately tried to resist being assimilated by the Divine Ring of Creation. However, his consciousness gradually turned blurry, and his vital qi was unable to be used as well.
A body with three heads and six arms was a symbol of having a strong corporeal body for battle during Crimson Light Era, but against the power of creation, he was completely helpless. Soon, he transformed into a huge fish with three heads and six fins, flopping on the ground.
At this moment, other than Qin Mu who was in the center of the divine rings, only First Ancestor Human Emperor was unaffected by the power of creation. He still retained his consciousness.
Everywhere in the garden, various kinds of sea creatures and sea plants had turned the whole garden upside-down.
Luckily, before Qin Mu had tested the Divine Ring of Creation, he had already ordered people to construct high walls around them to block the rays of these divine rings. Therefore, the power of creation didnât affect anyone outside.
âHuman Emperor Qin, enough!â
First Ancestor Human Emperor hurriedly shouted, âThe power of this treasure is extraordinary. Thereâs no need to test anymore. Be careful of causing irreparable damage to their primordial spirits!â
In the circular ring, Qin Mu stopped executing the Divine Ring of Creation, and the rings stopped rotating.
The scales and gills on First Ancestor gradually disappeared while the others in the garden were still flopping on the ground. They didnât recover their true form.
Qin Mu waited for a moment, but these people still havenât returned to their original form. He pondered and said, âThis is a kind of seal. It will seal their corporeal bodies and primordial spirits when it landed on their bodies, and they are unable to undo it by themselvesâ¦â
He took out a brush and paper to write down his ideas.
First Ancestor Human Emperor kept hurrying him, âUndo the seal for them quickly. The longer things drag out, both the soul and the primordial spirit will be assimilated!â
Qin Mu kept his brush and paper, and let the Divine Ring of Creation rotate in the right direction. Runes for unsealing shone in all directions, and they removed all the seals of creations on everyoneâs bodies.
Bang, bang, bang.
Sounds of explosion rang out as everyoneâs corporeal bodies transformed back to normal. Even Emperor Yanfeng was looking at this treasure in fear.
God Chi Xi was full of regret as he felt his heart bleeding. He looked at the Divine Ring of Creation and wanted to take it back very much. He also realized that this was probably Qin Muâs goal at the start. It wasnât the hundreds of thousands of divine weapons on the list!
Qin Mu would definitely not return this divine ring to him, even if he handed over Crimson Light Heaven Suppressing Floor!
The value of this divine ring had already far surpassed Crimson Light Heaven Suppressing Floor!
âOld expert thief⦠Truly an old expert thiefâ¦â
An old and experienced thief possessed an incomparably ruthless set of eyes that were able to differentiate what was a treasure and what was not. Even treasures that one didnât know were in their house could be dug out by him, and be bought away at an extremely cheap price or just stolen straightaway.
This kind of old thief usually possessed a different type of thought process that ordinary people donât have. With their keen senses, they could detect places that others couldnât see, and an old thief could make a dull treasure shine bright once more.
In Chi Xiâs eyes, Qin Mu was obviously an old and experienced thief!
He himself didnât even see the greatest use of the Divine Ring of Creation. He had only treated it as a key to awaken his people. However, Qin Mu have thought the other way and treated the divine ring as a seal!
In reality, Qin Mu was no different from an ordinary youth. He was playful and mischievous, but the great difference was he grew up with an old thief that would never fail to steal.
Cripple was used to seeing all kinds of treasures, and his thought process was different from ordinary people. He could usually think of what others couldnât, and since Qin Mu was taught by him ever since he was young, he naturally looked like an old and experienced thief.
After testing the treasure, everyone was covered in dirt, so they left at once to change their clothing. Not long after, Emperor Yanfeng returned and asked with a smile, âIs Mister Chi Xi planning to return to the floating world? Itâs only proper that I send some envoys to accompany you on the trip. Sir, please wait a moment.â
Chi Xi nodded his head, and his gaze flickered. âYour Majesty, I would like to use Crimson Light Heaven Suppressing Floor to exchange for the Divine Ring of Creation. May I know if thatâs possible?â
Emperor Yanfeng laughed. âThe weather today is perfect⦠Minister Qin, you have made a mess of my imperial garden. Off with your head!â
Pangong Tso revealed a look of anticipation, but Emperor Yanfeng still wore a smile. It was apparent that he had just said that casually and he was actually feeling great.
Pangong Tso was disappointed. Chi Xi took a glance at Qin Mu and said, âI felt Little Friend Qin is intelligent, so I would like him to follow me to the floating world.â
Emperor Yanfengâs heart stirred slightly as he looked at Qin Mu. Qin Mu immediately shook his head. âI wonât go even if you beat me to death. I will be beaten to death if I go with you.â
Emperor Yanfeng said with a smile, âI indeed need an envoy that could control the situation after heading to the floating world. If Imperial Preceptor is here, I would ask him to make a trip, but he still has to take charge of the battle in Supreme Emperor Heaven. He canât just leave the battlefield. Other than Imperial Preceptor, the only one who wouldnât lack the character of my Eternal Peace will be Minister Qin. Even I am inferior to Minister Qin.â
Qin Mu felt refreshed and said with a smile, âWonât go.â
Beside him, a little eunuch carried a brush and offered up a small booklet. Emperor Yanfeng raised the brush and dipped it into the ink, adding one more stroke on the little booklet. âYou wonât go even after I have flattered you?â
âWhatâs Your Majesty writing?â
Qin Mu walked forward and saw numerous names on the small booklet. They were mostly names of officials, and his name was also among them. His name had six to seven sets of tally marks, and there was one set with four strokes.
Among the names on this page, he had the most set of tally marks.
Emperor Yanfeng hurriedly closed the small booklet. However, Qin Muâs hands were quickerâhe stole the small booklet and flipped through it. There were over a dozen pages in this small booklet, and the name with the most set of tally marks wasnât his, it belonged to the empress. She had dozens of sets of tally marks.
Emperor Yanfeng quickly snatched the booklet back, and he snarled, âHow dare you steal my stuff. Off with your head!â After saying that, he added another stroke on Qin Muâs name.
Qin Mu came to a realization. He took a glance at the empress who was on the side and thought to himself, âThey must have quarreled frequently, so the emperor had already chopped off the empressâ head over hundreds of times. I have a hunch that the empress doesnât know about this. If she does, the chambers of imperial concubines will be in havoc.â
Emperor Yanfeng carefully kept the small booklet, and he said to Chi Xi, âMinister Qin is my right-hand man. He canât leave the imperial court easily, so may I ask Mister Chi Xi how long will you take? If the time you take is too long, I wonât bear to let Minister Qin go.â
Chi Xi said with a smile, âDonât worry, Your Majesty. When I had originally brought my clansmen and controlled the planet, we floated in space and didnât know where the ancestral land was. Thatâs why we spent thousands of years to find the ancestral land. If I bring only Little Friend Qin this time, we can go and return in just a year.â
Emperor Yanfeng asked curiously, âWhy did you have to spend so much time in the past and itâs so fast this time?â
Chi Xi replied, âIn the past, there was only a star atlas that marked the ancestral land, so we still needed to calculate the course of the stars. We also needed to avoid the pursuit of our enemies. Because of this, we were delayed for a very long time. Now that I know the way, thereâs a fast ship in the underwater celestial palaces from my Crimson Light Era. Its speed is even faster than a planet. Therefore, the speed is thousands of times faster than before.â
Emperor Yanfeng put his heart at ease, and he said with a smile, âMister Chi Xi, please wait for a few days. Minister Qin will be leaving with you.â
Qin Mu immediately shook his head. âYour Majestyââ
Emperor Yanfeng said sincerely, âA man should read a million books and travel a billion miles. The only one that wonât bring disgrace to our empire is Minister Qin. Your mission in Crimson Light Floating World is critical. Whether or not we will be able to ally with the remaining survivors of Crimson Light will be up to your abilities. Thereâs no one more suitable than you. I also know that there will be many dangers and it will be difficult, but only you are capable enough.â
Qin Muâs face revealed a huge frown as he looked at Chi Xi. Chi Xi smiled and didnât say a word.
Behind Chi Xi, Pangong Tso did a slitting action across his neck.
After a moment, the two of them took their leave.
Emperor Yanfeng saw them walking away and said, âMinister Qin, Chi Xi isnât the master of the house. Crimson Light Son of God is the one who can make decisions, and the oath that Chi Xi had signed with my Eternal Peace is not even bullshit. The Son of God needs to nod his head before the oath of alliance is in effect. Eternal Peace may look stable now, but itâs actually riddled with dangers. Thatâs why we need to confirm this oath of alliance with the floating world no matter what! When you reach the floating world, that Crimson Light Son of God will probably create trouble for the envoys of Eternal Peace, and I canât find anyone else better than you to handle this kind of situation! These are my sincere words! I canât personally go there, but I will let Princess Xiu go with you. If anything happens, my princess will die together with you!â
Qin Mu blinked his eyes. âIâll go, alright?â
He looked at First Ancestor Human Emperor. First Ancestor hesitated for a moment before saying, âI can go with you.â
Qin Mu settled his heart down, and he said with a smile, âThereâs nothing to worry about, Your Majesty. You can be at ease.â
Emperor Yanfeng let out a shaky breath and sighed. âIâm still not very reassured even if you guys are going. When you pass by Supreme Emperor Heaven, visit Imperial Preceptor and ask his opinion. I shall prepare several gifts for you guys to offer to Crimson Light Son of God when you visit him.â
Qin Mu nodded.
Two days later, Emperor Yanfeng prepared the gifts. They were the three basic sword forms that had been compiled into books. Qin Mu was the one who will carry them, while Ling Yuxiu was in charge of the exotic treasures.
Qin Mu, First Ancestor Human Emperor, and Ling Yuxiu prepared to leave for their journey. Chi Xi and Pangong Tso had already prepared the shipâit was a huge ship that was in the underwater city in South Sea. Chi Xi took it out from the seal, and it was an ancient flying ship that had six wings. The ship was covered in all kinds of gorgeous runes. The bow of the ship was the head of a phoenix, while the body of the ship was imprinted with all kinds of bird runes.
Qin Mu examined the ship in detail, and he was shocked. The head of the ship was a real phoenix head, and it has blood and flesh. The wings and feathers were also real phoenix feathers!
Moreover, the shipâs body was imprinted with all kinds of bird runes that were actually skins of divine beasts and divine birds. On the skins were natural runes of the divine beasts and divine birds!
âIn that case, these six wingsâ¦â
His heart was filled with wonder and shock when he realized that the six wings on this ship were wings of gods, and they were definitely not from ordinary gods!
Crimson Light Era had used the bodies of gods to forge divine weapons. From this point, one could see the style of this era from its history!
Barbaric, wild, and violent!
Not only this ship, but even God Execution Mysterious Knife could also show the vicious style of this era!
God Execution Mysterious Knife was made from the head of an overlord on Emperorâs Throne!
This trip to Crimson Light Floating World would definitely not be an easy journey!
