Chapter 1203: One-Track Mind

Wei Suifeng watched his junior brother become so excited, only to suddenly fall silent. He knew instantly that his junior brother was doomed.

"He must have hatched some terrible scheme and decided to go through with it no matter what, the kind that even ten thousand Kui dragons couldn't pull him back from."

Wei Suifeng sighed inwardly: "Teacher used to say I was stubborn, that I had no brains, just a lump of stubborn sinews in my head, leading to extreme behavior. But how can I compare to my second junior brother? Not only is his brain full of stubborn sinews, his entire being is one giant stubborn sinew!"

Qin Mu immediately set about implementing his plan. However, this self-transformation was an extremely ambitious undertaking.

He could only calm his mind and slowly comprehend the Eggs of Grandprime and Grandinitial, and the Grandultimate and Grandbasic paths, meticulously transcribing all the Great Dao runes, both those he understood and those he didn't.

As for the Chaos ore veins and the Grand Absolute path, Qin Mu decided to ignore them. He simply buried the Grand Absolute eggshell within his Divine Treasure, not caring if it would birth a Chaos ore vein or not.

He created a detailed plan and design. By the time he finished everything, Heavenly Venerate Yue finally returned, eager to visit them. Before she could even utter two sentences, a maidservant came to announce, "Heavenly Venerate, Heavenly Venerate Huo is here to visit."

Heavenly Venerate Yue asked, surprised, "What does Heavenly Venerate Huo want from me?"

She frowned deeply and said to Qin Mu, "Heavenly Venerate Huo was among those who encircled and killed Heavenly Venerate Yun. I resented him for a long time, and it was because of him that I retired and lived in seclusion for over a hundred thousand years. However, it was also Heavenly Venerate Huo who persuaded me to come out of seclusion back then."

Qin Mu declared firmly, "Heavenly Venerate Huo cannot be trusted!"

Heavenly Venerate Yue smiled, "Rest assured, I know what I'm doing, and I'm wary of Heavenly Venerate Huo. However, among the human race's Eight Heavenly Venerates back then, Heavenly Venerate Yu and Heavenly Venerate Yun died, Heavenly Venerate Qin and Heavenly Venerate Mu are from the future, and Heavenly Venerate You retired to Youdu. Only Heavenly Venerate Ling, Heavenly Venerate Huo, and I remain. If we don't act for the human race, then no one will."

She stood up and left.

Qin Mu grew anxious; the energy within him became unstable, and his body glowed brighter and brighter.

Suddenly, Wei Suifeng placed a hand on his shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Junior brother, the past can only be recalled, but there is still much that can be done in the future. History is history; you can participate in it, but you cannot change it. What you should do now is maintain your composure, calmly and meticulously doing your best with the task at hand, leaving no room for error."

Qin Mu took a deep breath, calming his restless and turbulent heart. "You're right, you're right..."

He calmed himself again and re-examined the plans and designs he had made.

He had to seize this opportunity to transform into an energy body and design his Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure to perfection.

He checked it several more times, finding no errors. Only then did he activate the Grandultimate Origin Stone, slowly beginning to reconstruct his Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure.

Not long after, Heavenly Venerate Yue returned. Seeing Qin Mu in the process of restoring his physical body, she didn't dare disturb him and was about to leave when Wei Suifeng approached her and asked, "Heavenly Venerate, what did Heavenly Venerate Huo come to see you about?"

Heavenly Venerate Yue hesitated, then said, "Heavenly Venerate Huo told me not to speak of it, but telling you two should be fine. He came concerning the matter of Earth Mother Primordial Lord."

Wei Suifeng asked, surprised, "Earth Mother Primordial Lord?"

"Heavenly Venerate Huo believes that as long as Earth Mother Primordial Lord exists, the human race in the Primordial Realm will not be safe. Emperor Beishang's tyranny is because he has Earth Mother Primordial Lord's backing."

Heavenly Venerate Yue added, "He wants to join forces with me to do something for the human race: eradicate Earth Mother Primordial Lord."

Wei Suifeng frowned.

Heavenly Venerate Yue smiled, "Although Heavenly Venerate Huo assisted Heavenly Venerate Hao, he is generally a good person. He detests evil and harbors extreme hostility towards the ancient gods. If it's about eliminating ancient gods, he'll be the first to charge forward."

"He's also the first to charge forward when it comes to eliminating human experts," Qin Mu's voice suddenly chimed in.

Heavenly Venerate Yue quickly looked at him, seeing that Qin Mu's body was still an energy form, with only his head having grown back.

The reason he restored his head first was to open his Spirit Embryo Divine Treasure, and his spirit embryo was currently being formed.

Heavenly Venerate Yue chuckled, "Mu, you look rather odd right now, a large head floating atop a glowing body. Try not to get distracted and focus on your cultivation. This matter with Heavenly Venerate Huo should be relatively stable because, besides him, we have another powerful human."

She was delighted. "This person is Heavenly Venerate Yun's favored disciple, Xiao Weisu! He has grown into the strongest existence in the world today, and he is also the first Emperor."

Qin Mu frowned deeply. Xiao Weisu, the later Heavenly Venerate Xiao, was the reincarnated body of the Ancient God Heavenly Emperor!

If Heavenly Venerate Huo still harbored a sliver of conscience for the human race, then Xiao Weisu was utterly malicious!

"Junior brother!"

Wei Suifeng's expression suddenly changed dramatically, and he shouted, "Don't get distracted!"

Qin Mu snapped to attention, immediately realizing that he had almost failed to open his Divine Treasure due to his distraction. He quickly refocused his mind.

Seeing that Qin Mu was still in danger, Heavenly Venerate Yue quickly said, "You continue with your work. I'll go discuss this with Elder Sister Ling and the other human experts. Heavenly Venerate Huo and Xiao Weisu are already urging us to act..."

"Wait."

Qin Mu called out to her, "Although I cannot afford to be distracted, I have at least recovered some of my spiritual consciousness cultivation. Yue, I am skilled in entering the Dao through dreams..."

Heavenly Venerate Yue asked, surprised, "Isn't that the Great Monk's ability?"

Qin Mu explained, "My method of entering the Dao through dreams differs from his. His dream-Dao is when reality itself becomes his dream; he experiences reality within the dream, endures the mortal world, and sharpens his Dao heart. My method, however, is a divinatory ability. It involves simulating reality within a dream to find the optimal solution from countless possibilities."

Heavenly Venerate Yue was about to speak when suddenly the world around them began to change. Qin Mu walked towards her.

To her surprise, Qin Mu's physical body had already recovered; he appeared youthful and heroic, handsome and full of wisdom.

Divine light emanated from behind his head like a halo, and his physique was tall and robust.

"The 'me' you see is not the true me," that Qin Mu said, his voice now magnetic and charming. "It's the 'me' you imagine, which may not be the same as the real me. You are already in your dream."

Heavenly Venerate Yue's face flushed slightly.

Qin Mu continued, "This is your dream. Although my strength has not yet recovered, I can help you perform derivations within it. Watch."

With a gentle wave of his hand, Heavenly Venerate Yue saw the Primordial Tree in the distance, and beneath it, Earth Mother Primordial Lord.

Not only Earth Mother Primordial Lord, but also others: Heavenly Venerate Ling, Xiao Weisu, Heavenly Venerate Huo, and another version of herself.

At that moment, she saw herself vanish and enter the body of her other self.

They were besieging Earth Mother Primordial Lord, and the scene was extremely intense, with various divine abilities and artifacts emerging one after another.

Heavenly Venerate Yue looked at the divine abilities, observing that each person's abilities were incredibly diverse, with some even being secret techniques these individuals never revealed externally!

She even felt a sense of empathy, as if she were personally participating in the battle within the dream.

"Wait!"

Heavenly Venerate Yue chuckled, "Emperor Shang is also a master, and Dao Ancestor and the Great Monk are even greater masters!"

Just as she said this, the figures of Emperor Shang, Dao Ancestor, Great Brahma, and others appeared, but they were blocked by the Northern Emperor's Celestial Court.

The Northern Emperor's Celestial Court was filled with numerous formidable experts, mostly demigods, whose power was terrifying.

Even with so many powerful individuals cooperating and paying a heavy price, they failed to eliminate the Earth Mother.

The battle concluded with everyone being severely wounded. Although Earth Mother Primordial Lord sustained extremely severe injuries, she was the Earth Mother after all, and her wounds healed quickly.

The result of this battle was that Heavenly Venerate Huo and Heavenly Venerate Ling died, Heavenly Venerate Xiao fled, and only Heavenly Venerate Yue managed to retreat unscathed.

In the distance, Heavenly Venerate Yue stood beside Qin Mu, staring blankly at the scene.

"History cannot be relived, but dreams can," Qin Mu whispered, "Now, let's return to where the dream began."

The brutal scene shifted, and Heavenly Venerate Yue experienced the battle once more. She was still Heavenly Venerate Yue, joining forces with Heavenly Venerate Ling, Heavenly Venerate Huo, Xiao Weisu, and others to collectively try to eliminate Earth Mother Primordial Lord.

Genius in one second:
