Chapter 1: Taiqing Heavenly Monarch
Qin Shou has been a policeman for five years, and today, he encountered the most bizarre case of a dead body in his five-year police career.
The corpse is a white-bearded old man, with long white hair combed, long eyebrows and white beard, a strange appearance, and a costume robe on his body, like an old man who cultivates immortals in the TV series.
Qin Shou thought at first that the deceased was an actor from a certain crew, so he deliberately investigated.
The results confirmed that this was not the case, there was only one crew in the vicinity, but it was a modern idol drama, and there were no costume actors at all.
Subsequently, the autopsy report came out, and the results of the report were only four words, and the cause of death was unknown.
The old man did not have any wounds on his body, and fluoroscopy scans also showed that the organs and tissues in his body were not damaged or failed, and there was no sign of poisoning.
I can't find the slightest damage!
This shocked Qin Shou.
The old man's breath has been cut off, the corpse is cold, there is no doubt that he is dead, why can't he find the cause of death?
"Huh, what's that?"
Qin Shou inspected the corpse and found that there seemed to be something hidden on the corpse's abdomen, which protruded slightly.
Qin Shou squatted down, untied the old man's clothes, and took out the protruding thing, which turned out to be a strange piece of metal, like iron but not iron, like copper and not copper, the whole body was pitch black, and it was natural.
"What kind of metal is this?"
Qin Shou was very surprised, how to say that he was also a graduate student and had seen a lot of metal elements, but this kind of metal was the first time he had encountered it, and he had never seen it.
Suddenly, a cyan glimmer rose from the strange metal, following Qin Shou's fingers and penetrating into his body.
In Qin Shou's mind, there seemed to be a picture flashing.
He closed his eyes and carefully recalled the image, but the time was too short for him to recall anything.
With a helpless sigh, Qin Shou could only open his eyes and solve the matter in front of him first.
The next moment, Qin Shou was shocked!
The scenery around him has changed dramatically, and the bustling and crowded big city has become a strange white space. Heaven and earth, in all directions, are white, white pure, white immaculate, and there is no second color to be found.
And the white-bearded old man, who was clearly dead, was standing in front of him at the moment, looking at him with a smile.
Qin Shou was taken aback, "I'll wipe it, cheat the corpse!"
Old man: "Young man, speak carefully, the old man is not dead, not a corpse." Moreover, what you see now is not the old man's real body, but a wisp of soul consciousness separated from the old man's body. ”
"Soul consciousness?" Qin Shou was stunned for a moment, "Uncle, I'm a graduate student and I read a lot, you can't fool me." ”
The old man snorted: "The old man is the Taiqing Heavenly Monarch, who has been in the Nine Realms for three thousand years, and has never told a lie, how can he lie to you?"
"Taiqing Heavenly Monarch, crisscrossing the Nine Realms, still three thousand years?"
Qin Shouhu looked at the old man suspiciously, and asked: "Uncle, have you read too many fantasy immortal cultivation novels......?
"Enough. ”
The old man raised his right hand and waved it at Qin Shou.
In an instant, Qin Shou only felt a powerful force rushing towards him, and he had no resistance at all, so he was swept out, rolling seven or eight times in a row before stopping.
The old man carried his hands behind his back, and the whole person hung up in the air, condescending, looking down at Qin Shou, "Now, do you believe it?"
"I'm rubbing, really?" Qin Shou was stunned, and the pain in his buttocks clearly told him that this was not a dream, it was real!
The old man held his head high, with a smug expression, very satisfied with Qin Shou's shocked expression.
Qin Shou reacted, immediately knelt on his knees, bowed down to the old man, and shouted loudly: "Lord Tianjun is above, please give me eternal life!"
The old man's smile froze, this guy is too shameless, right!?
The old man sighed and said, "Immortality, how easy is it? Even if the old man has reached the Heavenly Realm, he is only six thousand years old. Unless you reach the legendary god realm, no one can escape the cycle of life and death. ”
"Heavenly Realm, Divine Realm?"
Qin Shou didn't know what the old man was talking about, but when he heard it, the old man had a lifespan of six thousand years, so he immediately changed his words and said, "That day, Lord Jun will give me some longevity at will, I'm not greedy, as long as I can live for three thousand years, it's enough." ”
Old man: "Three thousand years? It's simple, as long as you can cultivate to the true realm, there is no problem at all in living to three thousand years." ”
"Cultivation?True Realm?" Qin Shou was confused, "Lord Tianjun, can you explain it in detail? I don't understand it at all." ”
The old man explained: "Cultivation is divided into ten realms, from low to high, in order of martial realm, yuan realm, spiritual realm, true realm, Xuan realm, earth realm, heavenly realm, holy realm, emperor realm and the ethereal divine realm. ”
"The higher the realm, the longer the longevity, the martial realm cultivators can live to be 100 years old, the Yuan realm can live to be 1,000 years old, and the spirit realm can live to 2,000 years old, and then increase. ”
"The old man was originally a cultivator of the Heavenly Realm, known as the Taiqing Heavenly Monarch, and he had a lifespan of six thousand years, but it was a pity that he ......"
Taiqing Tianjun sighed leisurely, as if he had infinite sorrow, and he couldn't speak, and said: "When you reach the Holy Realm, a cultivator will become a saint, and his longevity will increase dramatically, and he can live to be nine thousand years old, and the powerhouses of the Higher Emperor Realm can live for at least ten thousand years." The immortality you are talking about can only be achieved by the ultimate divine realm power. ”
Qin Shou was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said in his heart, I rub it, why is it becoming more and more like the plot in a fantasy novel?
Qin Shou swallowed his saliva, stared at Taiqing Tianjun, and asked, "Lord Tianjun, do you want to say that your longevity is approaching, and you want to find a successor." And I, gifted and gifted, happen to be the heir you've been looking for?"
"You fart!"
Taiqing Tianjun sprayed his face with saliva, and scolded angrily: "You are only about to live for a long time, your whole family is about to live for a long time, and the old man has a life of 6,000 years, and he has only lived for 3,000 years, and there is still half of his life left." If you're cursing me to death, believe it or not, I'm going to let you braid?"
Qin Shou was scolded for being bloody.
He was puzzled: "Since Lord Tianjun, you still have three thousand years of life, and you have no intention of accepting apprentices, what are you looking for me for?"
Taiqing Tianjun said angrily: "You think I am looking for you, look at your shameless appearance, even if I really want to accept heirs, I will not look for you." It wasn't me who chose you, but the golden shield who chose you. ”
"Golden Shield, what Golden Shield?" Qin Shou asked.
Taiqing Tianjun: "It's the piece of black metal in your hand." ”
Qin Shou picked up the black piece of metal in his hand and stared at him widely, "That's it?"
Taiqing Tianjun said angrily: "Boy, I'll give you a chance to organize the language from now on, and I'll talk about it after thinking clearly." ”
Qin Shou hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm joking, Lord Tianjun, how can you be blind? As he spoke, he picked up the metal block and wiped it again, and praised: "Good baby, really good baby!"
Taiqing Tianjun snorted coldly: "Don't pat yourself on the back, the golden shield has already been broken by the Nine Emperors and broken into ten pieces. What you have in your hand is just one of the ten golden shield fragments, and it doesn't have much of a purpose other than being a little harder. ”
"It turned out to be fragments. Qin Shou understood, no wonder he couldn't see the appearance of the shield at all.
"Then why did this fragment choose me?" Qin Shou asked.
Taiqing Tianjun: "Because you have the bloodline of the God of War, although your bloodline is already very thin, there is no doubt that you are the descendant of the God of War Xingtian." ”
"God of War Punishment Heaven!?"
Hearing this name, Qin Shou subconsciously thought of the god of war Xingtian who fought with the Emperor of Heaven as described in the Book of Mountains and Seas.
Could it be that there is a connection between the two?
Taiqing Heavenly Monarch continued: "The Golden Shield is the most important defensive weapon of the God of War and one of the twenty-four artifacts of the Heavens. Back then, after the golden shield was broken by the Nine Emperors, it was scattered all over the Nine Realms, and I also had a lot of hard work to find such a piece. If you want to collect all the fragments and reforge the golden shield, you must find the descendants of the god of war and cultivate the god of war, and with the power of the blood of the god of war, you can find out the whereabouts of all the golden shield fragments. ”
Qin Shou suddenly realized, he finally figured out the purpose of the Taiqing Heavenly Monarch, and asked tentatively: "So, you came to me just so that I could cultivate the God of War Technique and help you collect all ten pieces of fragments and reforge the golden shield?"
Taiqing Tianjun: "So to speak. ”
Qin Shou: "What if I refuse, will you kill me?"
"Refuse?" Taiqing Tianjun said curiously: "Why do you want to refuse? Don't you want to live a long life? If you cultivate the God of War Technique, your longevity will be greatly increased, and even stepping into the legendary god realm and immortality is not possible." Why would you turn down such a great opportunity?"
Qin Shou smiled: "I really want to live a long life, and my parents also want to live a long life, so they named it Qin Shou, but the premise of longevity is that I want to live." I remember you just said that the Nine Emperors teamed up to shatter the Golden Shield of the God of War Xingtian, I don't know who the Nine Emperors are, but they can break the Golden Shield and defeat Xingtian, they must be very powerful. If I listen to you, collect the shards, and reforge the golden shield, won't I be their enemy?
Taiqing Tianjun couldn't help but show a hint of appreciation, "I can't imagine that you scoundrel boy is quite smart, just by my words, you can guess so many things, not bad." However, you have no choice now, you have to promise, you have to say yes if you don't. ”
Qin Shou's face turned cold, "You want to kill me?"
Taiqing Tianjun smiled: "I won't kill you, no matter what, you also have the blood of the God of War Xingtian, and you are the person chosen by the Golden Shield Fragment, I will not kill you." But if the Nine Emperors knew your identity, they would definitely break you into pieces, they were the mortal enemies of the God of War and the Heavenly Punishment. ”
Qin Shou: "I'm just an ordinary person, an ant-like existence, will the Nine Emperors notice me?"
Taiqing Tianjun: "Naturally, it wasn't before, but not now." From the moment you held the fragment of the Golden Shield, you had already stepped into the vision of the Nine Emperors. ”
Qin Shou: "What do you mean by that?"
Taiqing Tianjun: "Haven't you always been very strange? Where are we now, what is the place? I'll tell you right now, we're now in an enchantment that travels through space. ”
"What did you say!?"
Qin Shou was shocked, "Crossing the Spatial Enchantment!?"
