Tales of Herding Gods
Chapter 1735: Ultimate Cold Silence

In the final words of the Eldest Young Master's Supreme Daoist, a picture of the Ultimate Void unfolding infinitely was displayed.

The worlds in the heavens, the ancestral court, the four poles, Xuandu, and Youdu all expanded along with the Ultimate Void. In the end, everything became flat and void, turning into a void membrane without any thickness or quality.

All matter would unlimitedly disintegrate as the void expanded. The smallest particles would shatter, shattering into primordial runes 800 billion years later.

The primordial runes were already the smallest structure of the Dao. After 800 billion years, the primordial runes would also shatter along with the expansion of the void. As the primordial chaos shattered, all Great Dao would cease to exist, and all Dao, skills, and divine arts would turn into nothingness!

At that time, anyone who achieved the Dao would have their Great Overarching Heaven expanding and collapsing. Their Dao Tree, Dao Flower, and Dao Fruits would all become void and cease to exist!

The scene described by Eldest Young Master was the cold silence after the Ultimate Void expanded infinitely.

All the worlds in the heavens, the ancestral court, the four poles, Xuandu, Youdu, all the lifeforms, all the substances would become ornaments on this incomparably vast void membrane. They couldn't be seen or touched.

No Great Dao existed.

Even the World Tree would transform into the void and expand into a void membrane that had no mass.

All the energy in the universe would be extinguished, and the mass would disappear.

In the end, even the abyss of the Ruins of End would exhaust all its energy and evaporate, no longer existing!

The ultimate cold silence.

Qin Mu sat there quietly and didn't move for a long time.

The result of the deduction shown to him by the master of Miluo Palace by the eldest young master was very likely to happen, and it could even be said that it would definitely happen!

This was because when Qin Mu first came to the Ultimate Void, he discovered that it was continuously expanding and growing by itself!

Furthermore, even if one didn't enter the Ultimate Void, they could still see this kind of expansion from the trajectory of history.

During the primordial era, the universe underwent the transformations of the five precelestial universes and evolved into the ancestral court. It gave birth to masters of creation and lived in the ancestral court. At that time, no matter if it was the myriad heavens or the four poles, they were all very close to the ancestral court. At the beginning, the four poles were even the four sacred grounds of the ancestral court!

At that time, being able to pluck the stars was no joke.

As time passed, the Ultimate Void expanded, and the Four Extreme Heavens gradually left the ancestral court. More and more stars appeared in the sky, and the universe grew larger. Xuandu expanded continuously, and the universe grew continuously.

During the first year of the Dragon Han Era, the territory of the universe was countless times larger than the primordial era!

If one used the four poles and the ancestral court as observation points, they would discover that the space between them was still expanding!

The source of all this was the continuous growth of the Ultimate Void.

The Ultimate Void pushed the layers of void to open up, and these layers of void pushed the entire universe to open up continuously. In the end, the space between the heavens and the heavens would continue to extend, and the stars would go further away.

This was the sign of ultimate loneliness.

"Success, survival, and destruction of the void doesn't appear in order. It's also possible for the two phases, 'emptiness', to appear."

Eldest Young Master's Dao language became much simpler and no longer contained such complicated information. He said dryly, "The result of Teacher's deduction is that there are only two stages in the seventeenth era, Success and Void. He couldn't find a way to solve it, so he lost all hope."

In the past, the evolution of the universe was to become the living, the bad, and the void. The universe would form, stabilize, collapse, and destroy. Then, they would experience the calamity of life and evolve the universe into the primordial again, experiencing the living and the dead.

The World Tree and the Ruins of End stabilized the cycle of Success, Steadiness, and Destruction.

And the universe of the seventeenth era could always be formed and ultimately become void.

Qin Mu sat there in a daze. After a long time, he suddenly smiled and said, "Senior Brother Grand Supreme, what does what you said have to do with me coming to save Tai Yi?"

The Eldest Young Master's Grand Supreme Elder seemed to be in and out of existence, without any signs of life. He continued to answer in Dao language, "The reason why Teacher got rid of Tiandu was also because of this. Tiandu opened the heaven and earth in the Seventh Epoch, evolving the dry Kun of the universe. The final result was the ultimate cold silence. Teacher calculated the ultimate cold silence, so when he couldn't persuade him, he could only make a move. Tiandu is too easy."

Qin Mu fell silent.

The two of them faced each other in silence.

Eldest Young Master had made it clear why it was easy for him to suppress and imprison Tai Yi. If he released Tai Yi, it could lead to the eternal transformation of the seventeenth era into the ultimate cold silence, so he wouldn't agree to Qin Mu's request. Releasing Tai Yi would be easy.

Qin Mu also realized this, but he wasn't confident enough to save Tai Yi, so he could only remain silent.

After an unknown period of time, Qin Mu slowly said, "Teacher couldn't undo it, so it was extinguished. If you left it behind, it would be too easy. Can you solve it?"

Eldest Young Master shook his head.

If leaving Tai Yi behind could solve everything, then the master of Miluo Palace wouldn't have to enter and perish.

Qin Mu said calmly, "In that case, why suppress Tai Yi? He has nothing to do with Cheng Kong of the seventeenth era, so it's useless even if you suppress him."

The Eldest Young Master opened his eyes, and his gaze was filled with purple gas. Following that, a scene of the universe opening up appeared in the purple gas, and he said, "He's the enemy of Miluo Palace."

Qin Mu smiled. "In that case, am I considered an enemy of Miluo Palace?"

The purple gas in big young master's eyes completely turned into chaos, and he seemed to be in doubt. Even he didn't know if Qin Mu was the disciple of the master of Miluo Palace or the enemy of Miluo Palace.

Qin Mu said with a smile, "Miluo Palace is actually just a gathering place for Dao practitioners with the same ideals. Teacher is like this, you are like this, and I am also like this. The ideals between us are no different. Our goal is to save the world. You follow Teacher's ideals, and every action of yours is the embodiment of Teacher's ideals. I'm the same. Senior brother, Teacher didn't kill Tai Yi, nor did he suppress him. Do you think if Teacher really wants to keep him, can he leave Miluo Palace?"

Eldest Young Master shook his head. "If Teacher wanted to kill him, he would have been left in the palace when he entered the Miluo Palace to provoke us. He wouldn't have been beaten to the fourth era."

Qin Mu let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "On the contrary, the ones that went against teacher's philosophy aren't you and me, nor are they easy to deal with. It's Third and Fourth. Third and Fourth are trying to force their way into the seventeenth era for their own selfish desires. Maybe it's their actions that led to the ultimate cold silence of the seventeenth era. I released Tai Yi to stop them."

His eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Senior Brother Supreme, think about it carefully, is this the reason? It was Third and Fourth Brother who stirred up all of this! Not only does Senior Brother Supreme want to release Tai Yi, but he also wants to work together with us to block the two unworthy people, Third Brother and Fourth Brother! Our senior brother should work together to teach them a lesson. They are the true traitors and enemies that go against Teacher's philosophy!"

His ability to bewitch and infect others was extremely strong, but Eldest Young Master was still unmoved. He said dryly, "Third and Fourth don't have any selfish motives. They are also following Teacher's philosophy."

Qin Mu sneered and said, "By following teacher's philosophy, you can destroy the lives of the seventeenth era and control the lives of the tenth era to massacre wantonly? How much suffering did they create? How many people died because of them? Senior Brother Supreme, can't you even differentiate right from wrong?"

He stood up and said coldly, "Is this what Miluo Palace does? Is this what Teacher does? If that's the case, why would he ask the Dao practitioners of the Universe Era to help him willingly? Senior Brother Supreme, if Teacher was here, he definitely wouldn't let Third and Fourth Brother act so recklessly!"

Eldest Young Master was silent.

Qin Mu took a step forward and paced in front of him. "If it wasn't too easy to possess and enter this universe to chop down the World Tree, the seventeenth era would have long been destroyed! This is the reason why I want to save him! From the opening of the seventeenth era until now, how many people have died? Third and Fourth controlled the changes in the entire universe and entered the city. They sacrificed the lifeforms of the seventeenth era. These lifeforms have nothing to do with you, but they are related to me! Senior Brother Supreme, if you can't help, you can't be biased!"

He stopped and panted heavily, his face almost touching Eldest Young Master's face as he said loudly, "Since you adhere to Teacher's philosophy, then what you have to do is more like it! You can't be biased towards me, nor can you be biased towards them! Today, no matter what, I will take Tai Yi away! Are you going to give way?"

Eldest Young Master Grand Supreme remained silent.

Qin Mu straightened his back and executed the Dao of Tai Yi to transform into the Tai Yi Divine Axe. He walked towards the thatched hut with a blazing aura.

Now that his back was completely facing the eldest young master, if the Grand Supreme Elder made a move at this moment, he wouldn't be able to defend at all.

Not only that, he also didn't have full confidence in opening this cottage, but he had to give it a try!

"Chaos."

Eldest Young Master's voice came from behind him, and Qin Mu stopped in his tracks. Eldest Young Master closed his eyes and said, "Teacher said that you formed the Dao from the primordial chaos, which made him unable to understand. Maybe you will solve the problem that Teacher and I can't solve. I won't open the door for you, nor will I help Ling Xiao and Zixiao. I won't help anyone in your fight. However, when it endangers Miluo Palace, I will make a move."

Qin Mu revealed a smile and said, "I understand."

Eldest Young Master stood up and walked past him. He opened the firewood door and walked in. He then closed the firewood door and carefully locked it.

His voice came from the hut and said, "Whether you can save Tai Yi will depend on your own abilities. I won't interfere."

Qin Mu laughed loudly, and his aura completely burst forth. The World Tree suddenly appeared behind him and propped up his internal universe. The abyss of the Ruins of End swirled under his feet, raising his power to the extreme!

The primal chaos hall appeared behind his head, and the sounds of the Dao rang out. Qin Mu's feet moved, and he stabilized himself. He executed the Tai Yi Divine Axe and slashed at the door of the hut!

The Highest Shrine was the real Supreme Hall. It was condensed from the cultivation of the eldest young master and could be said to be the supreme Dao of the Miluo Palace!

The instant his Tai Yi Divine Ax landed on the door of firewood, the thatched huts instantly lit up. The Great Dao changed, and primordial runes circulated, giving him an incomparable pressure!

Qin Mu shouted, and the primordial qi overflowing from the hall of chaos behind him grew denser. Suddenly, a vibration traveled over, and a gate appeared in the hall that was situated in the chaos!
