Chapter 1128: Have All Requests Granted

"Longshan Sanren?" The two ancient gods’ expressions drastically changed as they cried out in unison.

Dragon Qilin, trailing behind Qin Mu, exclaimed in surprise, "Someone still remembers me? Am I that famous?" His tail stood upright like a flagpole, swishing twice. When he was Longshan Sanren, he didn't manifest a tail because he had to take human form. Now that he was back to being Dragon Qilin, he naturally had a tail to wag.

The two ancient gods were aghast. Ignoring their brother's fate, they hastily soared into the air. However, at that moment, layers of glorious canopies unfurled from the Lapis Lazuli Sky Pagoda, spreading out the twenty-eight Heavens and separating the two ancient gods.

Ancient God Zhu'er bolted, his speed increasing rapidly. As he ran, his shoulders trembled, and bone wings unfolded behind him, their membranes flapping with a rustling sound. He moved like a fleeting shadow, instantly leaping past star after star. It was then that he noticed these were not stars, but colossal treasures, emitting dazzling light, suspended like constellations within the Heavens of the Lapis Lazuli Sky Pagoda.

"Truly worthy of being the number one ultimate treasure in the world..." Just as he thought this, the space suddenly shifted, and he reappeared before Qin Mu!

Ancient God Zhu'er was horrified. Being far from his ancestral land, his strength was significantly diminished. Facing Longshan Sanren, he was sure to lose and would undoubtedly die. However, when his gaze fell upon Qin Mu and the others, he couldn't help but be taken aback.

"The cultivation realms of these few seem quite low. The highest is only that little azure sparrow, one is in the Jade Capital Realm, and another is in the True God Realm. Could it be that they are merely Longshan Sanren's disciples, and Longshan Sanren isn't actually here?"

He grew excited. If they were just Longshan Sanren's disciples and retainers, then this was a godsend opportunity for him! "The Lapis Lazuli Sky Pagoda, the number one ultimate treasure in the world, if it were to fall into my hands..."

Instead of retreating, he advanced, heading straight for Qin Mu and the others! At that very moment, Qin Mu bowed to the Lapis Lazuli Sky Pagoda and said, "Dear baby, please unleash the treasures of the First Heaven to slay the powerful enemy."

The moment he finished speaking, the ancient god egg suspended high in the dome of the Lapis Lazuli Sky Pagoda vibrated. A grand Daoist sound emanated from within the egg, and a magnificent power of the Great Dao surged down from the dome, pouring into the numerous exotic treasures from the ancestral court within the First Heaven! Each exotic treasure suddenly pulsed with a heart-pounding vibration. Beams of world-shattering light distorted the space within the Lapis Lazuli Sky Pagoda, striking first despite being launched later, engulfing Ancient God Zhu'er from all directions!

An earth-shattering roar reverberated, and Ancient God Zhu'er evaporated on the spot, leaving no trace behind!

Dragon Qilin and Yan'er cheered in unison, but Qin Mu couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. He looked up at the ancient god egg in the zenith, a hint of fear in his heart.

The being within this ancient god egg was incredibly powerful, granting every request. Its divine abilities and strength felt to Qin Mu even greater than those of the Heavenly Venerates of the Heavenly Court! He feared that even a Heavenly Venerate wielding the Divine Artifact, Heavenly Venerate Yu, might not be able to contend with it!

Qin Mu remained outwardly composed, yet goosebumps erupted on the back of his neck, and cold sweat streamed down.

On the other side, Ancient God Zhu San's speed was also extremely fast, and he quickly escaped through layer after layer of Heavens.

At that very moment, Qin Mu bowed once more, his voice deep, "Dear baby, please unleash the treasures of the Seventeenth Heaven to slay the powerful enemy!"

From the ancient god egg in the zenith, a resounding Daoist sound echoed again, like a melodious bell and pounding war drums. Simultaneously, Qin Mu's divine consciousness silently shot skyward, attempting to probe the mysteries within the ancient god egg. This ancient god egg differed from the egg of Grand Beginning. When Wei Suifeng split the Grand Beginning egg, the power within it was activated, various Daoist patterns overflowed, and Daoist sounds boomed. However, this ancient god egg showed no external phenomena and could not be probed from the outside. Only when the ancient god egg mobilized its own power and actively opened a channel for that power to flow, did Qin Mu have an opportunity to let his divine consciousness infiltrate it.

The various exotic treasures from the ancestral court in the Seventeenth Heaven shone brightly, obliterating Ancient God Zhu San. At the same time, Qin Mu's divine consciousness reached the ancient god egg and drilled inside.

As soon as his divine consciousness entered the egg, a primordial chaos appeared before his eyes—vast and boundless. He couldn't tell what substance it was; it didn't resemble egg fluid. Just as he was about to examine it closely, the primordial energy suddenly transformed into a large bell. On its walls were depicted birds, beasts, insects, fish, the sun, moon, stars, galaxies, constellations, and all phenomena of heaven and earth.

Qin Mu was about to look closer when the great bell abruptly vanished, replaced by a massive ancient cauldron. The ancient cauldron was hoary, resting upon thick telluric energy, bobbing and rotating endlessly. The cauldron walls bore reliefs of various ancient gods: some with three heads and six arms, others with bird heads and human bodies, human heads and snake bodies, or ox heads and tiger faces—all imaginable forms were present.

Before Qin Mu could get a clear look, the great cauldron vanished, and a bright mirror appeared in its place. The mirror reflected the myriad realms, all living beings, and the bustling mortal world—as if the beings of the cosmos were constantly evolving within the mirror.

Suddenly, the bright mirror disappeared, and the peculiar primordial energy rotated. From the swirling purple mist emerged a woman of unparalleled beauty, captivating at first sight. "Lang Wo..."

Qin Mu was stunned. God King Lang Wo walked towards him, smiling, youthful and vibrant, gentle and affectionate. Just as God King Lang Wo was about to reach him, her appearance suddenly changed, transforming into another maiden. She wore white robes, carried a long sword on her back, and tiny dragon horns sprouted from her forehead. Her beautiful hair flowed down her shoulders like water. "Bai Qiuer..."

Qin Mu's heart trembled. Bai Qiuer walked towards him, her eyes revealing four millennia of waiting. However, her appearance changed once more, becoming the maiden he met on the Surging River, Ling Yuxiu, disguised as a man, who now stood before him, her eyes full of playfulness and wildness.

These three women: one was a woman Qin Mu was deeply attracted to, yet she abandoned all her emotions for the future of her race. Another was the Upper Emperor Sword God, who, driven by the belief that a single life outweighs heaven, single-handedly bore the burden of protecting the Upper Emperor's survivors, seeking a way out in the darkness. And also because of the events of the Upper Emperor Calamity that night, she was misled for life, waiting bitterly for Qin Mu for four millennia. And the last was his childhood sweetheart, who couldn't be with him because one became emperor and the other became the imperial preceptor.

All three women were directed at the weaknesses of his Dao heart, born from the tenderness within him! Lang Wo was no longer emotionless, Bai Qiuer could abandon everything, and Ling Yuxiu had returned to her former self.

It was as if, should he choose to stay, his wishes would come true, and he could be with these three women forever.

"It's all fake, illusory..." Qin Mu's divine consciousness was in disarray, yet Ling Yuxiu's hand gently caressed his divine consciousness, making it tremble.

Celestial Venerable Mu, who dominated the Dragon Han era and caused turmoil in the Heavenly Court, was not an omnipotent deity unaffected by emotions. He was, from beginning to end, a person, someone with a tender heart. His divine consciousness couldn't help but transform into his likeness, feeling the caress of his beloved.

Ling Yuxiu's face transformed into Bai Qiuer, who nestled against his chest. Bai Qiuer looked up, her face then changing into the appearance of God King Lang Wo, Lang Wo in her youth, tender as water. "You can stay here, you don't have to bear everything alone. We'll be together for life," she whispered, her breath like orchids.

Qin Mu's divine consciousness exploded, turning into nothingness. He intentionally destroyed his divine consciousness to avoid being lost in the ancient god egg.

When he opened his eyes, it was precisely the moment Ancient God Zhu San met his demise.

"Incredible!" Qin Mu's gaze shifted from the ancient god egg in the sky. He thought to himself, "This ancient god, even before birth, can transform into anything tangible and substantial, even anyone!"
