Chapter 1412: Unparalleled Divine Power

Yantian Consort was rushing towards the Grand Ultimate Star Region, entering the Black Sand Desert, while Qiangtian Consort and the divine artifact Yu Tianzun followed Juewuchen deep into the desert.

Qiangtian Consort and the divine artifact Yu Tianzun were both Heavenly Venerable level beings, undetectable even by Juewuchen. They watched as Juewuchen entered a magnificent, ever-changing mining area, which astonished both Heavenly Venerables.

As they stepped inside, they saw that the mining area fully displayed the splendor of the Grand Ultimate Way, where yin and yang transformed and generated life endlessly.

The Grand Ultimate Way could transform living beings in the world, such as primeval giant beasts, flowers, plants, insects, fish, trees, humans, gods, demons, and monsters; it could even create ancient gods.

It could also transform non-living things in the universe, such as rivers, mountains, vast oceans, thunderclouds, lightning, the sun, moon, and stars, a truly miraculous creation.

Even Qiangtian Consort and Shiqiluo, who controlled the divine artifact Yu Tianzun, were dazzled, marveling at the power of the Grand Ultimate Ancient God and the profound mystery of the Grand Ultimate ore vein.

However, they did not realize at the time that this was merely a deceptive, false mining area set up by the true one.

Among the oviparous ancient gods, the Grand Ultimate Ancient God was the most versatile; when creating illusions, even Heavenly Venerables found it difficult to discern their intricacies.

Yet, after following Juewuchen for so long without reaching the deep parts of the mining area, Qiangtian Consort and the divine artifact Yu Tianzun couldn't help but feel anxious and suspicious.

Just as the divine artifact Yu Tianzun was about to test the mining area's power, Juewuchen's clear voice suddenly rang out: "Empress Guixu, I have come to pay my respects, please reveal yourself, Dao Brother!"

The divine artifact Yu Tianzun immediately held back. The changes in the mining area gradually stabilized, and a path appeared at Juewuchen's feet.

Juewuchen stepped forward, walking deeper into the mining area.

The two Heavenly Venerables continued to follow her. They walked for a long time, and just as they were about to lose patience, a breakthrough appeared: a beautiful and unparalleled natural altar, with eight Grand Ultimate primordial stones guarding a divine egg, emerged before them.

The two Heavenly Venerables held back again, watching Juewuchen greet the divine egg and take a seat.

Juewuchen conversed with the divine egg, exchanging pleasantries. Just as the two Heavenly Venerables were about to reveal themselves, the conversation suddenly shifted. Juewuchen began discussing the state of the world, and the divine egg boasted so extravagantly that it seemed to turn the sky dark and the earth dim, making the two Heavenly Venerables hold back once more.

At this moment, both Heavenly Venerables suddenly felt a significant divine power fluctuation. Each was startled, and even this Grand Ultimate mining area trembled slightly with the fluctuation, like a painting rustling in the wind.

"Incorrect!" they thought. "The true Grand Ultimate mining area was born at the dawn of the universe. Not only can the fluctuations from this divine power clash not shake it, but even a Heavenly Venerable's full assault cannot move it!"

The two Heavenly Venerables became vigilant. At this moment, a second, stronger fluctuation arrived, seeming like a Heavenly Venerable level being unleashing their full power!

The divine artifact Yu Tianzun let out a long cry, unleashing its full power without reservation. Instantly, this mining area shattered: mountains collapsed, the sun and moon disintegrated, and countless giant beasts, deities, and other anomalous phenomena transformed into wisps of yin and yang energy, scattering!

"As expected, they were deceiving me!"

The divine artifact Yu Tianzun stood tall, only to see a surging tide of black sand approaching. Soon, the countless black sands grew immense in its vision, instantly transforming into planets, while the Black Sand Desert itself became a magnificent galaxy with billions of stars!

It found itself in a vast starfield, with planets flying everywhere, completely obstructing its view!

Meanwhile, Qiangtian Consort also found herself in a chaotic, "porridge-like" galaxy. Looking around, she could no longer see any trace of the divine artifact Yu Tianzun or Juewuchen.

"What a Grand Ultimate Ancient God, with boundless power!"

Qiangtian Consort couldn't help but exclaim: "Not yet born, and already able to toy with Heavenly Venerables! What if you were to be born? These methods cannot trap a Heavenly Venerable. You'd better die in your egg, to avoid causing havoc in the world like Grand Beginning!"

She strode forward, her powerful divine consciousness sweeping all around, pushing aside stars. If there were too many stars, she would directly step into the void. No matter how powerful the Grand Ultimate Ancient God was, it could not affect the void.

Grand Beginning preceded Grand Ultimate. The Way of Grand Beginning was divided into divine consciousness and primordial innate energy, with divine consciousness excelling at entering the void. As the reincarnation of the Grand Emperor, Qiangtian Consort was skilled in divine consciousness, so the dangers of the Grand Ultimate Star Region had no effect on her.

Only when the Grand Ultimate Ancient God was born, entered the Dao, and reached the thirty-fifth heaven of the Dao realm, would it threaten the Grand Emperor. Even then, it would not threaten the Grand Emperor's Dao fruit.

The Grand Ultimate Ancient God could only pose a fatal threat to the Grand Emperor by achieving Dao and imprinting itself upon the ultimate void.

As the Grand Ultimate Ancient God itself had stated, they were currently too far from the Dao. They needed to be born and experience the mortal world to achieve Dao. Otherwise, even as oviparous ancient gods, there were many beings in this world who could threaten their lives.

Qiangtian Consort swiftly traversed the star region, searching for the true mining area. On the other side, the divine artifact Yu Tianzun was swallowed by the Great Abyss of Guixu. A massive crack was seen moving rapidly through the star region; wherever it passed, even stars were devoured.

As the eleventh Heavenly Venerable, Madam Yuanmu's Guixu divine power was truly formidable; she could travel through it, and even the Grand Ultimate Star Region could not stop her.

The two Heavenly Venerables suddenly made separate discoveries: a mountain range, spanning the star region and suppressing countless planets, appeared before them!

This mountain range was incredibly astonishing, and the shock it caused was unimaginable!

Heavenly Venerable divine power fluctuations were indeed coming from there. This time, the fluctuations were clearer, and the two Heavenly Venerables immediately realized these fluctuations were Yantian Consort's divine power!

"Is Yantian Consort trying to eliminate the Grand Ultimate Ancient God?"

Both were startled simultaneously and rushed towards the mountain range. When they reached the summit of the immeasurably high mountain, they looked around. Suddenly, the vast star region had transformed back into a desert. Countless stars had vanished, leaving only swirling sand.

Strangely, one side was the Black Sand Desert, and the other was the White Sand Desert.

The terrain of this mountain range was complex, and its layout was constantly shifting. Even the two Heavenly Venerables found it difficult to locate Yantian Consort for a time.

Just then, a smaller divine power fluctuation suddenly emerged. The two Heavenly Venerables quickly looked. They saw white sand swirling everywhere, and two figures moving rapidly through the White Sand Desert, fighting fiercely!

Behind those two, heavenly palaces stood, radiating divine light. Even with the intense sandstorm, it couldn't obscure the light emanating from their heavenly palaces.

"Empress!"

"That little wretch of a sister!"

The two Heavenly Venerables immediately recognized one of them as Empress. However, they were somewhat surprised by the person fighting the Empress; it was none other than Qin Mu, Heavenly Venerable Mu!

At this moment, Qin Mu was moving rapidly through the White Sand Desert. All around him, both in front and behind, were Great Abysses of Guixu, resembling mouths devouring everything, engulfing all things.

That was the Empress's divine power!

Beneath his feet was the Divine Treasure of Spirit Embryo domain, which spread out and moved with him.

Opposite him, about a hundred *zhang* away, Empress was also moving rapidly, unleashing various divine powers from her fingertips.

Suddenly, eighteen primordial spirits from Qin Mu's nineteen Heavenly Palaces flew up. They danced around the primordial spirit of the main Heavenly Palace, each in a different stance, brimming with battle intent. It was like eighteen great emperors surrounding the Heavenly Emperor, while ancient gods from all heavens and myriad worlds emerged, fighting and slaughtering, their bodies ferocious. This created a scene akin to a "Battle God Diagram"!

The Dragon Han conflict embodied!

From this divine power, Madam Yuanmu and the Grand Emperor astonishingly witnessed the incredibly magnificent and bloody conflict between the three Heavenly Courts of the Dragon Han era. They saw shadows of Yun Lingyue's ambush against the Grand Emperor; they saw shadows of the post-celestial divine beings and demigods ambushing Heavenly Emperor Grand Beginning; they saw images of the emperors of the Dragon Han era; they saw the armies of the three Heavenly Courts warring, with blood flowing sky-high!

This divine power was Qin Mu's seventeenth heaven of the Dao realm, vividly displaying the bloody conflicts of the Dragon Han era!

Boom—

Qin Mu and Empress crashed together, unleashing the full power of this divine ability. However, their clash was momentary. Qin Mu reeled backward, almost flat on his back, rapidly retreating across the desert to dissipate the Empress's power.

The next moment, a great abyss suddenly appeared behind him. The Empress emerged from the abyss, her long sleeves billowing. Her sleeve transformed into the gaping maw of an abyss, aiming directly for his head!

Qin Mu's retreat had not yet ceased. Suddenly, his eighteen primordial spirits returned to their positions. Each took a seat on the God-Slaying Platform of its respective Heavenly Palace. The God-Slaying Platforms were wreathed in bloody malevolent energy, yet it could not harm his primordial spirits in the slightest.

Unbeknownst to him, he had already crossed the Jade Pool and advanced to the God-Slaying Platform realm!

All Heavenly Palaces suddenly retracted, swiftly flying into his glabella.

Qin Mu's physical body immediately became incredibly bright. Within the hundred orifices of his body, the power of ancient god imprints was activated, elevating his physical strength to its peak!

At this point, within the Celestial Court in his glabella, the positions of the various Heavenly Palaces shifted. The Palace of Creation became the main body and dominant force, with other Heavenly Palaces serving as supplementary.

In an instant, his power became unified!

His physical body rapidly expanded, muscles bulging ferociously. His power instantly surged to an unparalleled height!

Crimson Bright Divine Body Absolute!

His body, almost pressed against the desert, immediately sprang up. The Divine Treasure domain rendered the Empress appearing behind him meaningless. Qin Mu punched directly into the Empress's sleeve, going straight for the vital point. No matter how the Great Abyss of Guixu tried to strangle it, it could not extinguish the power of his punch!

Crimson Bright Divine Body Absolute, as his eighteenth heaven of the Dao realm, unified not only his Way of Creation but also his martial arts and combat techniques. Ancient gods were known for their powerful physiques and innate mastery of the Great Dao. However, martial arts were originally a peerless art excelling in close-quarters combat!

He was like a Martial Dao Emperor, fighting dragons and tearing phoenixes in close combat, with overwhelming dominant physique. At the same time, he possessed the immortal body and immortal primordial spirit of the Crimson Emperor and Bright Emperor!

From the Empress's sleeve, a palm flew out like a spiritual snake. It violently collided with his fist, showcasing the incredibly powerful physique of an ancient god to its fullest!

Her true body had died early, ambushed and killed by Madam Yuanmu in the early to mid-Dragon Han era, and had been suppressed on the ghost ship. However, after obtaining a physical body from Qin Mu, she had used her cultivation over these years to enhance the power of her true body, which was no small feat!

Yet, in a direct clash with Qin Mu, she gained no advantage. Qin Mu's physical body and primordial spirit were highly unified, his divine consciousness and vital qi merged into one, his physical body was compact, and various ancient god imprints transformed into physical power.

At the moment of impact, the ancient god imprints in his body's orifices burst forth with light. They transformed into two thousand ancient gods swirling around him, then vanished back into the orifices.

With each flow of power, the Dao sound within him rumbled and vibrated. Even the howling sandstorms of the White Sand Desert could not obscure that clear Dao sound.

Empress's gaze was cold. Her posture was like a dance, her long sleeves fluttering like spiritual snakes. Her sleeves were like great abysses, occasionally revealing delicate hands. Every strike showcased beauty, yet concealed deep killing intent.

The two clashed once more, each retreating backward.

Whoosh—

Qin Mu's nineteen Heavenly Palaces flew out from behind his head, forming a vast Celestial Court. He clasped his hands forward and bowed deeply.

Empress's expression subtly changed. She swiftly soared into the air, dodging his attack.

As Qin Mu bowed, the countless white sands in front of him instantly vanished, transforming into streams of chaotic qi.

However, the moment Empress dodged, she realized that no matter where she tried to hide, Qin Mu's Divine Treasure of Spirit Embryo domain always kept her facing him directly.

Amidst rumbling vibrations, with Qin Mu at the center, all the surrounding white sand returned to chaos in violent tremors, transforming into chaotic qi, gushing and flowing!

Qiangtian Consort and the divine artifact Yu Tianzun, standing on the Grand Ultimate ore vein, saw this move. They were moved in unison: "What a divine power!"

"An inescapable divine power, infinitely stronger than Divine Emperor Langxuan's single Divine Primordial Finger!"

This divine power was precisely the twenty-sixth heaven of the Dao realm.

One Qi Primordial Dao, Traveling Together—Qin Mu's most powerful divine power!
