Chapter 846 — The Heavenly Palace Under the Dao Ancestor's Rule

Moreover, the Venerable Lord of Heaven's soul was incomplete; part of it was hidden in this Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Court, and Shen Mu was even more unable to see through the Dao Ancestor's action.

"What the Venerable Lord of Heaven's soul lacks is memory. Could the Dao Ancestor intend to recreate a Venerable Lord of Heaven and implant that memory into this new body?

But would that Heavenly Emperor in the Heavenly Court allow him to do so?

" "Or does that Heavenly Emperor believe the Venerable Lord of Heaven's body is the most perfect, and so intends to reincarnate into it?

" "It is also possible that this Heavenly Court cultivation system is imperfect, and that Heavenly Emperor needs the Venerable Lord of Heaven's memory and wisdom to perfect this Heavenly Court! " "Whose idea is this in the end — the Dao Ancestor's or that Heavenly Emperor's?

" His head gradually began to ache, for the Dao Ancestor's attitude was too perplexing.

He had once met Yan Qiling, the disciple of the Ancient Star God Heavenly Emperor.

The information Yan Qiling revealed was that the Dao Ancestor was helping the Ancient Star God Heavenly Emperor, and that the Ancient Star God Heavenly Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor of the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Court were clearly not the same person, but irreconcilable enemies! The Dao Ancestor stood on the side of the Ancient Star God Heavenly Emperor, yet also served as the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Court's Archive Pavilion in the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Court, helping the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Court's Heavenly Emperor build this grand Archive Pavilion!

Now the Dao Ancestor had summoned Shen Mu and the others into the Archive Pavilion and revealed to them the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Court Heavenly Emperor's plan! "Is the Dao Ancestor good or evil?

Neutral, or biased?

Or is he simply.

.

.

" Shen Mu's expression turned strange. "A shit-stirrer?

" Daoist Master Lin Xuan and Xiao Chunfeng came to his side and stared blankly at the scene in the jade pillar. Both were frightened and stunned, standing speechless. "Brother Xiao!

" Shen Mu said with a smile, "The Divine Treasury system and the Heavenly Court system in the Archive Pavilion — have you ever seen them before? " Xiao Chunfeng shook his head in confusion.

"Then have you ever heard of them? " Shen Mu continued.

Xiao Chunfeng shook his head again.

"You have never heard of them, never seen them.

Then do you think anyone in the Heavenly Court has cultivated such a system? " Shen Mu said, leading him on gently, "A person who cultivates such a system must be incomparably powerful in cultivation, unmatched in the same realm. He must be someone like me — someone who might even make you think he is the Overlord Body, another Shen Mu, a being you can only look up to and never reach.

Have you ever met such a person? " Xiao Chunfeng came back to his senses and looked at him with a strange expression.

Daoist Master Lin Xuan also secretly felt Shen Mu was rather shameless.

Who praised himself like that?

But Shen Mu's words that the one who cultivated this Heavenly Court system was unmatched in the same realm, a being others could only look up to and never reach, were indeed not wrong.

If someone truly cultivated according to this Heavenly Court system, from the seven Divine Treasury realms to the seven Heavenly Palace realms, they would absolutely have no rival in the same realm! If that person could cultivate to the Heavenly Court realm, they would be the greatest through past and present, unmatched in the world, even surpassing the Ancient Star Gods!

The only pity was that here there were only the Divine Treasury and Heavenly Court frameworks, but no cultivation method.

The Archive Pavilion held countless jade slips, and the Great Dao runes on them were beyond counting.

Organizing and integrating these Great Dao runes into a single cultivation method would absolutely be an incomparably vast undertaking!

Lin Xuan even doubted whether any single method could contain such a vast cultivation system!

"And this cultivation system is not perfect.

" He glanced at Shen Mu.

Xiao Chunfeng did not know the imperfections of this cultivation system, but Shen Mu certainly knew them perfectly well. The first point was that this system still had the Divine Bridge Divine Treasury. But the Divine Bridge Divine Treasury had already been replaced by the Heavenly River Divine Treasury Shen Mu had created, which was better. The second point was also in the Divine Treasury system: the seven great Divine Treasuries were severed from one another, not transformed into a single complete Divine Treasury.

Even if Primordial Wood took root in the Six Harmonies Continent, it would still be incomplete and unable to connect with the Divine Bridge.

If it were replaced with Shen Mu's Heavenly River Divine Treasury, this problem could be perfectly solved.

The third imperfection lay in the calculation arts the Dao Ancestor used to construct the Ancient Star Gods. The Dao Ancestor used macroscopic calculation arts, such as the Tai Xuan Calculation Classic and the Su Nü Calculation Classic, but lacked microscopic calculation arts.

And the microscopic calculation arts were the Tai Wei Calculation Classic, created by Shen Mu and perfected by the Jingping Daoist Sect! Without the Tai Wei Calculation Classic, the Ancient Star God Great Dao runes the Dao Ancestor deconstructed were imperfect.

With these three constraints, the Heavenly Court system the Dao Ancestor constructed was imperfect. There should be other imperfect factors as well, but for now Daoist Master Lin Xuan could only think of these three.

"Now I know the Dao Ancestor's purpose in summoning us.

" Suddenly, Xiao Chunfeng sighed, his expression downcast. He laughed at himself. "So that's how it is.

Now that I know the secrets in the Archive Pavilion, I can no longer stay in this Heavenly Court.

If I want to live, I must leave the Heavenly Court.

Otherwise, when the secret is exposed, I will surely die. " He smiled bitterly.

He had originally been utterly loyal to the Heavenly Court, yet now he had no choice but to betray it.

The more secrets one knew, the more dangerous it became.

He now knew the secrets of the Archive Pavilion. If the Dao Ancestor told the Heavenly Emperor about this, he would surely die, and die very cleanly! Shen Mu and Lin Xuan were the same.

They had to keep this secret.

If they did not, the Dao Ancestor would not need to kill them; others would naturally do it.

By summoning them, the Dao Ancestor had perfectly solved the problem of choosing sides. He would not stand on Shen Mu's side, nor on Xiao Chunfeng's side. He only needed to summon Shen Mu and Xiao Chunfeng, and the distinction between their camps vanished, leaving the two of them standing neatly in line.

"This is what the village chief meant by an old hand of the jianghu," Shen Mu could not help but sigh.

Only now did he understand how childish his plan had been — to kill Xiao Chunfeng and force the Dao Ancestor to take his side.

Such an old hand could easily dismantle their little schemes.

"Brother Xiao, what do you plan to do after we return?

" Shen Mu looked at the frowning Xiao Chunfeng and asked with a smile. "I plan to return to Qingyun Heaven and help it destroy the corpses and erase the traces, framing the Earth Mother Primordial Lady. After all, the Earth Mother Primordial Lady doesn't lack for such a small matter. " Xiao Chunfeng sighed and said, "Afterward I will fake my death to escape, leave the Heavenly Court far behind.

I will not contact my mother.

I will hide as far as I can.

.

. The Dao Ancestor's move is too ruthless!

" Shen Mu laughed.

"You'll hide away and study this Heavenly Court cultivation system? Then when you have strength in the future, plot a comeback?

" Xiao Chunfeng said calmly, "My cultivation and strength, my intelligence and talent, are no worse than yours.
