That ball of hellfire suddenly separated. Its structure was like a cocoon, with layers of structure. Every layer of hellfire was imprinted with Youdu's Great Dao runes, and it was extremely beautiful.
The egg of hellfire had a total of 36 layers. The deeper it was, the stronger the hellfire and the stronger it was.
When the last layer of hellfire was peeled off, Qin Mu and Venerable Moon saw Ah Chou Earth Count.
It was Ah Chou, who was suppressed in Jade Lock Pass and suffering from endless hellfire.
Ah Chou wasn't in this egg of hellfire, but in Jade Lock Pass. However, the energy in this egg of hellfire was flowing into Ah Chou's body continuously!
Ah Chou had committed a heinous crime, and his body was covered in chains formed by the Great Dao of Youdu. Yet, he was forcefully pulling Youdu towards the celestial heavens, bathing the celestial heavens in blood to take revenge for his family and fight for the life of his daughter.
He destroyed almost half of Heaven, causing numerous ancient gods and half-gods to die in his hands. He even slaughtered the princes and descendants of the emperor.
His sins were heinous. Even if he was the reincarnation of Earth Count, he had to atone for his sins. He would forever sink into the fire seed and suffer from the hellfire.
Ah Chou was Earth Count, but Earth Count wasn't Ah Chou. Earth Count had to be fair and couldn't be biased, so Earth Count suppressed Ah Chou.
However, even if Earth Count couldn't be biased, he still had his own selfish motives. He envied Ah Chou and wanted to become Ah Chou. Thus, he used the hellfire of all living beings to mold Ah Chou's true body.
"The sins of all living beings, return to me."
Earth Count's expression was calm as he said, "The day I die will be the day I jump out of my shackles."
Qin Mu frowned and didn't say anything.
Venerable Moon frowned slightly and also fell silent.
They were looking forward to Earth Count becoming their ally and fighting alongside them. The ten Celestial Venerables were at their weakest now.
Hao Tianzun was severely injured, Xiao Tianzun was exiled, and Emperor Tai was left with only his head. Consort Gentian wouldn't be much of a threat even if she recovered from her injuries. Jojin Of Gojoseon, Emperor Lang Xuan, and Consort Yan were all injured, while Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu had yet to fully recover.
Hong Tianzun was the reincarnation of Heaven Duke, and Celestial Venerable Gong would most likely choose to remain neutral. The only one who maintained her peak combat power was Mistress Yuanmu.
Now was the best time to make a move on the ten Celestial Venerables. If Heaven Duke and Earth Count raised their arms, with the help of the Venerable Moon, Hong Tianzun, and Celestial Venerable You, East Deity Qing Long, West Deity White Tiger, and North Deity Black Tortoise, as well as Founding Emperor Qin Ye and Divine King Lang Wo coming out of the Great Void, the odds of victory were in their favor.
However, Earth Count wanted to die. He wanted to break free from his current Great Dao body.
This was something that Qin Mu and the Venerable Moon didn't expect.
"Earth Count nurtured Ah Chou, and Heaven Duke nurtured Hong Tianzun. They must be tired of their Great Dao bodies and want to use this calamity to break free from their current identities and regain their freedom."
Qin Mu and the Venerable Moon left Earth Count's body. The Venerable Moon said to Qin Mu, "Or rather, Earth Count and Heaven Duke are actually conniving with the ten Celestial Venerables to kill them."
Qin Mu nodded and said softly, "Now is indeed not the time to start a war. If we start a war, Earth Count and Heaven Duke won't be able to leave Youdu and Xuandu. They can only fight in their own territories. If they leave here, their combat power will be greatly reduced. Furthermore, although we have quite a number of high-end combat power here, the combat power of you, Celestial Venerable You, Founding Emperor, and Lang Wo are actually inferior to the ten Celestial Venerables. "
The Venerable Moon nodded in agreement.
She was crippled for 40,000 years, Celestial Venerable You was isolated for a million years, and Founding Emperor hid in Carefree Village for 20,000 years. Although she hadn't seen Lang Wo before, her abilities shouldn't be that high.
The Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Green Dragon were very powerful in their own territories. However, once they left their territories, their abilities would decrease.
Earth Count and Heaven Duke didn't want to fight. Even if they wanted to, this battle would be extremely difficult. They might even be wiped out!
Just Xiao Tianzun alone was enough to make the Venerable Moon, Celestial Venerable You, and Earth Count work together to fight against him. If Qin Mu didn't use Celestial Emperor Grand Creation's eggshell to deal with him, these three existences would have suffered greatly!
As for the three ancient god emperors, Green Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise, they were stuck in their respective lairs and couldn't leave!
Founding Emperor and Lang Wo were also stuck in the Great Void by Celestial Venerable Huo and Celestial Venerable Xu.
"I realized that not many of our allies are on the same side as us."
Qin Mu was a little depressed as he said in a low voice, "The reason why Green Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise allied with us is to regain their ancient god status and restore their rule. Heaven Duke and Earth Count allied with us to borrow our strength to protect their reincarnations and give them a chance to jump out of the shackles of the Great Dao. "
He said bitterly, "Lang Wo is doing this for the future of the masters of creation. If she had to risk the extinction of the masters of creation, or if the ten Celestial Venerables gave her generous terms, she would have defected without hesitation. Hong Tianzun won't help us. Celestial Venerable Gong and I are just exchanging benefits. When I can't give her benefits, she will stand on the side with greater benefits. Mistress Yuanmu is even more so. What they want to pursue is different from what we want to pursue. "
Venerable Moon stopped in his tracks and smiled. "However, you already have the power to fight the ten Celestial Venerables, don't you think?"
Qin Mu revealed a smile and also stopped in his tracks. "Yes. Compared to the Yankang calamity back then, that deep sense of despair and helplessness is much better now. "
