A Tear

Chapter 1526 A tear

There was silence in the Miro Palace.

Qin Mu stood there quietly for a long time without saying anything, and the owner of Miro Palace did not continue speaking, as if waiting for him to wake up from his shock.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Suddenly Qin Mu burst into laughter, and his laughter echoed back and forth in the Miro Palace. After a long time, his laughter became quieter and quieter.

"Brother Dao, do you think I will believe you?"

His face turned serious, and he said solemnly: "Taiyi is not the real Taiyi, what evidence do you have? If he is not the real Taiyi, why would he risk coming to find you? Why would he leave a geographical map for me to follow to save him? Isn't he afraid that I will come here and meet you, and you will expose his identity? If he is an enlightened person who has landed, why would he prevent other enlightened people from landing? Why did he guard and cut down the World Tree, why did he guard there for billions of years?"

The voice of the master of Miro Palace came, saying leisurely: "Do I need to lie to you, Lord Mu Tian? If I had bad intentions, why would I lie to you? Taiyi has been knocked down to the fourth universe by me, can you be stronger than him?"

Qin Mu closed his mouth, pursed his thin lips and said nothing.

Compared to Taiyi, he was indeed very weak, and the master of Miro Palace had no need to deceive him.

If he has malicious intentions, just get rid of him!

"If you want evidence, then go to the mining area at the outermost edge of the World Tree to look for it. When an enlightened person sneaks across the World Tree, he will leave behind a mine pit. Go to the outermost edge of the World Tree, where you will find the mine pit where he landed."

The owner of Miro Palace said slowly, "As for why he took the risk to come and see me, it was because the appearance of Miro Palace made him realize that his identity was in danger of being exposed, so he had to come here no matter what. He had only one purpose, which was to make you dare not come."

Qin Mu was stunned for a moment, and said, "But I came."

"Even an enlightened person of his strength is trapped here. If it were anyone else, they would definitely not dare to come and investigate. He also left a geographical map for you to follow to save him. If it were anyone else, they would definitely search everywhere for the location marked on the geographical map. But you are different."

The master of Miro Palace continued, "You are someone he couldn't see through. He thought you didn't dare to come, but you still came, and went through all kinds of dangers to come to me and expose his identity. He didn't expect you to be so brave."

Qin Mu thought about it and decided that logically speaking, what the owner of the Miro Palace said was indeed possible.

He walked forward, trying to pass through the extremely thick Hongmeng Yuan Qi and approach the owner of Miro Palace. He wanted to take a look at the person in the purple air.

However, no matter how long or how far he walked, he could not get close to the figure in the purple light.

In terms of supernatural powers, the entire universe, including the Ten Heavenly Lords, are not as sophisticated as his, but he cannot tell what supernatural powers the master of the Miro Palace uses.

"As for him blocking other enlightened people from reaching the shore, that's even simpler. He has witnessed the destruction of the universe, and he doesn't want this universe to repeat the same mistake. The more enlightened people there are, the faster the universe will be destroyed. He not only wants to block enlightened people from reaching the shore, but he also wants to block others from achieving enlightenment."

The master of Miro Palace said: "Your universe has been around for 6.1 billion years. During this period of time, there has been no enlightened being except him. If he really wanted to resist the invasion of prehistoric enlightened beings, why did he have to stay under the World Tree? He only needed to cultivate a few enlightened beings to help him resist the invasion of prehistoric enlightened beings. Did he do it?"

Qin Mu tried to move forward, was silent for a moment, and shook his head: "No."

He couldn't help but defend Taiyi, saying: "Taiyi is detached from the world, and is an enlightened being. He won't interfere in any worldly affairs! He just uses the perspective of a bystander to watch the development of worldly affairs and the change of dynasties..."

"Really?"

The master of Miro Palace asked, "He really didn't interfere in anything? Then how did the Creator clan become extinct? How did you become the master of the World Tree? How can the eye between your eyebrows see through chaos?"

Qin Mu was silent again.

From these perspectives, Taiyi did interfere in worldly affairs and was not so detached.

Taiyi made the ancient gods of the ancient times mistakenly believe that the Great Dao wanted to eliminate the Creator clan, so Taichu Tiandi launched a war against the Creator clan, thus destroying the Creator clan.

Of the once glorious race, only a small number of people have escaped into the void and are still surviving.

Qin Mu was able to successfully grow the World Tree thanks to Taiyi's bucket of Dao Dew, and Taiyi also lent him the Chaos Axe to chop down trees.

The vertical eye between his eyebrows was made possible by Taiyi's eggshell and a drop of Taoist dew.

The master of Miro Palace said: "He did not allow the five Tai of your universe to be born smoothly. If Taichu, Taishi, Taisu and Taiji had been born smoothly, how could the later things happen? You would have at least five enlightened ones to protect your universe and prevent the enlightened ones from prehistoric times from coming. Did he do that? No."

"Taichu was crippled, Taishi could not be born, Taisu was refined into a treasure, Taiji hid from place to place. None of the four innate Tai who originally had the most hope of achieving enlightenment could do so. Taiyi guarded the World Tree with great difficulty, but what he was actually guarding was only his own life."

He said leisurely: "The people who seem to be the most selfless are often the most selfish."

Qin Mu suddenly burst into laughter.

The owner of Miro Palace stopped talking and waited quietly for his laughter to subside.

"I can't refute you, but I won't doubt Taiyi because of this! The person I should doubt the most is you!"

Qin Mu continued to walk towards him relentlessly, his voice echoing in the Miro Palace, and he said loudly: "Brother Dao, you are also a person who seems to be selfless, but according to your own principles, you are also the most selfish person!"

The master of Miro Palace was silent for a moment, and then said, "You can say that. The universe is fair. When the deadline comes, all life will die, and those who have attained enlightenment are no exception. However, I want to survive and save others. This is indeed selfish."

Qin Mu continued to walk towards him, shaking his head and said, "That's not what I'm talking about. Mine is the ancestral altar! The entire ancestral altar is a huge blood sacrifice altar. How dare you say it has nothing to do with you? You have been trapped here, and you are also waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to get ashore! That's why you set up the blood sacrifice altar!"

The master of Miro Palace fell silent again. After a moment, his voice came from the extremely heavy purple light: "The ancestral altar has nothing to do with me, but it is indeed related to Miro Palace. In the past sixteen years, I have witnessed the destruction of sixteen universes, the joys and sorrows of countless lives, and the ambitions and obsessions of countless geniuses, which eventually turned into ashes in the great destruction. I no longer want to go ashore, and I don't want to ferry people anymore. But not everyone in Miro Palace thinks the same as me."

It was difficult for Qin Mu to understand the insights in his words, and it was also difficult for him to distinguish the truth from falsehood.

Logically speaking, there was no need for the master of Miro Palace to deceive him, but deep down he really didn't want to believe what the master of Miro Palace said.

He didn't want to believe that Taiyi had been deceiving him and using him.

"I still remember what Taiyi said to me. When I gave up my own path, he turned into a tear in the corner of my eye." Qin Mu murmured.

This touched him deeply and shook his soul.

"However, tears are the cheapest."

The master of Miro Palace said: "If this can move you, then I can give you more tears. How many tears do you want?"

Qin Mu walked forward stubbornly and said in a deep voice: "Then let me see your tears!"

He took a step forward, and suddenly the extremely thick purple air in front of him dissipated, and he finally arrived in front of the owner of Miro Palace.

In front of him was a majestic and magnificent Tao tree, like a world tree, lush and green, as if standing in the destruction of sixteen universes, and not being destroyed by the catastrophe of the destruction of the universe.

Sixteen Dao fruits were hanging on the Dao tree, and each Dao fruit revealed a different Dao, with Dao sounds lingering and Dao light dense.

Standing in front of this Taoist tree, Qin Mu felt that he was as small as an ant and insignificant.

He tried to look under the tree and saw a tall and strong figure sitting under the tree.

The man sat there with his hands in a strange posture, as if he had never moved.

It was a skeleton.

Only the skeleton remains.

There was not a single bit of flesh and blood on the master of the Miro Palace. He had no body, no soul, and no breath of the Great Dao. There was only a skeleton sitting in the palace.

"Mu Tianzun, the tears you want."

On the towering Tao tree, Tao fruits swayed, and a drop of Tao dew dripped from the leaves and fell on the brow of Qin Mu who was looking up.

"Is this one tear enough?"

The voice of the master of Miro Palace came from the Dao fruit of the Dao Tree: "Or do you need more?"

Qin Mu opened his mouth slightly, unable to describe the shock that the scene before him brought to his soul.

He always thought that the master of Miro Palace was in charge of all this, in charge of the invasion of prehistoric enlightened beings, in charge of the ancestral altar, and in charge of the Yujing trap!

However, he did not expect that the owner of Miro Palace had already died.

He has turned into Tao and disappeared.

All that was left of him were these dry bones and this Taoist tree.

All that was left of him was his Word.

Perhaps, he died when he realized that he could never save the world.

Qin Mu closed his eyes, and the vertical eye between his eyebrows also slowly closed.

All along, the one who spoke to him was not the master of Miro Palace, but the Tao transformed by the master of Miro Palace who was talking to him.

Those who have attained enlightenment can lie, but the Tao will never lie.

After a moment, he opened his eyes, turned around and walked out of the hall.

"I don't believe it."

He murmured, "I won't believe it!"

His legs were getting heavier and heavier, but he still walked out with strength: "I absolutely do not believe that Taiyi is a prehistoric enlightened being. This is just your one-sided statement... Even if he is a prehistoric enlightened being, what does it matter? After all, he protects this universe, and he is a good person... He is like a world tree, supporting the sky of this universe..."

He walked to the gate of Miro Palace, and suddenly his legs went weak. He sat on the ground with a dull look in his eyes, muttering, "He is the sky of this universe... I want to meet him in person and ask him!"

He struggled to get up, held onto the palace door, and tried to push it open.

Crunch——

The door to the Miro Palace slowly opened, revealing a gap.

"You are wrong."

The voice of the master of Miro Palace came from behind him: "The one who supports your universe has never been Taiyi. Mu Tianzun, the one who supports your universe was Taidi in the past, then Taichu, then Shi Tianzun, Yun Tianzun, Yue Tianzun, Ling Tianzun, Chihuang, Minghuang, Shanghuang, Kaihuang, Yanfengdi, Yanxiudi, and Mu Tianzun, you yourself——"

"No one has ever helped you and held up your sky!"

Qin Mu staggered out of the Miro Palace, and the door behind him slammed shut.
