Seeking immortality in a deceitful way starts by making oneself into a puppet

Shen Qiwu, or this Golden Flower Thief, is a smart man.

He had a brief fight with He Ping, no, it couldn't be said to be a fight, it was just a matter of escaping, so he knew that the other party must be a strong man of the manifest level.

Facing a master of this level, he chose to "surrender" almost without hesitation.

"This senior must not be an ordinary master of manifesting gods, because the Divine Court will not allow the manifesting gods to stay in the lower realm, unless they are those manifesting gods from the Taoist Academy who were canonized by the upper realm and ascended to cross the barrier. Such manifestations Gods all have the status of god, which is the qualification of being a true god.”

The Golden Flower Thief thought to himself that no matter how much he said about his affairs, he would never attract the attention of a righteous god.

In this world, all the masters of manifesting gods are bound by the Heavenly Divine Court. After the Yuanshen reaches their peak, they will be captured by the rules of the Heavenly Divine Court and have to ascend. The rules set by the Divine Court cannot be ignored, and no one can resist the force of attraction from heaven.

"The rules of the Heavenly Divine Court are very strict. Except for the Zhengfa Taoist Academy, there are very few masters of spiritual manifestation who sincerely want to enter the heavenly realm, because ordinary monks who go to the heavenly world just work as dogs for the Heavenly Divine Court."

As the seventh prince of the Jade Phoenix Dynasty, he knew many secrets and was very clear about the internal situation of the Heavenly Palace.

"In the Divine Court, the nine heavenly kings each hold power, and they fight very fiercely. It is said that the Lord of the Divine Court has not been involved in world affairs for a long time, and rarely manages the Divine Court personally. Within the Divine Court, all the positions of righteous gods, large and small, have been removed. Occupied by the Heavenly King faction,"

Chen Qiwu sighed deeply in his heart: "Even if ordinary masters of manifesting gods ascend to heaven, they will not be able to obtain the qualifications of true gods. They can only rely on others, or else they will worship under the sect of a powerful figure and only focus on being his disciple." Only by running around can you get a little bit of success."

An individual's martial prowess, fighting prowess, wisdom, and talent have no meaning after ascending to heaven.

The power of the nine heavenly kings is enough to suppress all powerful enemies, and the fighting generals of Shenting Tianjie have gathered many immortal gods, which cannot be overthrown by one or two strong men.

Over time, some extremely talented beings among the gods also figured out some ways to avoid the power of attraction.

These methods are very special. They can seal one's own spiritual aura, making it impossible to sense the rules of the divine court, and cannot trace any causal network in the three realms. This type of monks have obviously violated the laws of heaven and are regarded as sinners by the Divine Court. They are all called "resident devils" by the Divine Court.

About a thousand years ago, there was a group of "resident demons" who secretly established a cult in the human world with the intention of subverting the world. They also caused chaos in many major states and caused trouble for all. Somehow they angered one of the nine heavenly kings. The Last Dharma King, this King even sent the God of Fighting General down to earth, and experienced a brutal fight to completely eradicate this group of demons living in the world.

"These resident demons are all top masters. Most of them have developed souls, have immeasurable magical powers, and are proficient in all kinds of strange arts. Although according to Shenting, they have all been eradicated in the original battle, in fact There are still some fish that slipped through the net and survived. I am afraid that this one is this kind of person..."

When Chen Qiwu thought about this, a bitter look appeared on his face.

Speaking of which, the previous emperor of the Jade Phoenix Dynasty was implicated because of his involvement with a resident great devil. As a result, the entire dynasty was sent to heaven, which made the divine court feel dissatisfied and committed sins.

"I am indeed the seventh prince of the Jade Phoenix Dynasty. Please be magnanimous, senior, and spare my life."

"You are quite clever."

He Ping smiled, hearing that he was determined to surrender and had no intention of continuing to take action.

In fact, his original intention was to directly refine the Golden Flower Thief into a puppet after he found him.

Who would have expected that the core Taoist method practiced by Shen Qiwu is the puppet technique of the Immortal Puppet Sect. No, at this point in time, the Immortal Puppet Sect has also become extinct. The current Immortal Puppet Sect should be the so-called "Mu Shi Dao Puppet" palace".

This identity piqued his interest to some extent.

"...Are you a disciple of Mu Shi Dao's Puppet Palace?"

He Ping asked him.

He is somewhat interested in the Mu Shi Dao Puppet Palace of this era.

Because He Ping had a suspicion. He believed that Wuyousheng should have survived in the era of Shenting's rule. If this was the case, it was difficult to guarantee that the identity of the master behind the Mu Shidao Puppet Palace was Wuyousheng himself.

"Not really."

Shen Qiwu shook his head: "I just accidentally killed a monk of Mu Shi Tao and got some treasures from this man. I also got a volume of scriptures recording the puppetry from him, and I learned it. Some magic tricks.”

He added that among the puppet techniques he learned, there were several techniques for refining puppets, and there were several puppets.

The seventh prince didn't think much and boldly started to learn. However, when He Ping heard what he said, he suspected that this was a game.

"Maybe it's a monk from Mu Shi Dao's Puppet Palace who noticed the identity of the seventh prince, so he faked his death and left his own 'fake corpse', and then left his own puppetry scriptures. There are also various treasures and relics, which are what lure you into the cave.”

He Ping thought for a while and felt that this situation was part of the daily operation of the Immortal Puppet Sect monks. He just didn't know if the Mu Shi Dao Puppet Palace in this world would also use this method.

"After that, I used the few puppets left by the monk to join several immortal sects. I also secretly learned many Taoist methods. I was originally a descendant of the imperial dynasty, so I used my status to collect a lot of materials. Only then did he practice hard to reach the realm of Taoism.”

The Seventh Prince Shen Qiwu did not dare to lie and explained everything in detail.

"The Jade Phoenix Dynasty made a big mistake that year, causing dissatisfaction in the divine court and the heavens, and causing disasters. Since then, it has been going downhill... us royal children are not having it easy either. I was young and energetic, and I also wanted to make something In order to rebuild the dynasty's momentum, he practiced Taoism and transformed into the Golden Flower Thief, plundering everywhere, and later joined the overseas Evil Star Alliance. "

At this moment, he knew very well that when facing a powerful man who manifested his power, the puppet under him might also be tracked. In other words, whether he lived or died, it all depended on the other person's thoughts.

"Yeah?"

He Ping asked again: "How much do you know about the Mu Shi Dao Puppet Palace?"

"It can be said that I know nothing."

The Seventh Prince Shen Qiwu shook his head.

"Except for accidentally killing a monk from the Mu Shi Dao, I have never had any contact with the monks from the Third Master Dao. Although I have also learned the techniques of the Puppet Palace, it is said that the monks of this sect, Some rituals need to be held when cultivating and advancing, similar to worshiping the ancestors with the monks in the land. "

His tone was quite sincere: "Only those who have been truly enlightened by the masters within the Puppet Palace and have undergone promotion rituals can be regarded as the true 'Mo disciple' of the Puppet Palace."

The Mo disciples are the official disciples of the Puppet Palace. According to rumors, all the Mo disciples have "immortal bodies". Their bodies have been transformed into various puppet artifacts. They can be disassembled at will, and can also be transformed into thousands of things. , it is almost impossible to kill Mo Tu.

"In fact, the Taoism practiced by the Third Master is somewhat strange. It is not a righteous Taoist method, but an heretical evil method... After I got the scripture on the Puppet Palace, I was halfway through studying it and did not dare to delve into it in depth, because Some of the ideas in it are really deviant and weird.”

The seventh prince also knew some secrets of the spiritual world, and knew the weirdness of the Three Masters. The evil cult forces created by the "resident demons" thousands of years ago were naturally a threat to the divine world, and the Three Masters had been around for a long time. Since then, it has been regarded as a disaster by the divine court, heaven and even the three realms.

However, the cult created by the "resident devil" thousands of years ago has long been eradicated by the fighting gods sent by the heavens. The leaders of the cults and the big devils were also shown their heads to the public, but until today , the monks of the Third Master Path are still living well in the human world... It can be seen that the monks of the Third Master Path are not simple people.

"Let me ask you again, who is the person behind you who wants to cause trouble for the Guyang Shi family?"

He Ping asked another question.

"About this matter, it sounds somewhat complicated, but it's not particularly complicated." Shen Qiwu frowned slightly: "To put it bluntly, it's just that the Fang family hired people to come and take action against me, but the one who took over the job was the overseas Evil Star Alliance. , I also have some connections in the Evil Star Alliance and often help them with some work."

"Overseas Evil Star Alliance?"

He Ping said: "What is the background of this force? I don't quite believe that a group of chaotic cultivators organized by the forces dare to risk the disapproval of the world and become enemies of all forces in the world."

"Of course, the Evil Star Alliance is notorious. If it didn't have any background, it would have been put down by all forces long ago."

Chen Qiwu continued to explain: "Behind the Evil Star Alliance is the Immortal Palace outside the territory, also known as the Guanghan Sanctuary... The origin of this Immortal Palace is very special. It is almost not controlled by the divine court, and it is closely related to Luan Sheng, Zhen Yu, and Wu among the nine heavenly kings. With the support of several people, his status is extraordinary.

In fact, my status in the Evil Star Alliance is not high. To put it bluntly, I am just a useful killer or someone who can be hired. I only know that the Evil Star Alliance respects the so-called Six Saints of the World as its main ones. Many masters of the Evil Star Alliance, They must be worshiped every day. "

Next, Shen Qiwu explained many secrets within the "Evil Star Alliance". It turns out that this Evil Star Alliance is similar to a mercenary organization. As long as people provide money and resources, you can hire experts here to kill people for you. Work hard.

One of the reasons why the seventh prince joined the Evil Star Alliance is to "make money". The Evil Star Alliance operates many jobs, and murder and arson are just one of them. However, the Evil Star Alliance does a lot of this kind of work, and its reputation is naturally Getting worse.

"The Immortal Palace, it really is the Immortal Palace."

He Ping's expression was also slightly gloomy.

He knew that the Immortal Palace should not exist in the original future timeline. As far as he knew, and the information told to him by Emperor You, this was not a force that would exist in the future.

The Celestial Palace built by the Lord of the Celestial Palace will not allow other forces to hang out in it. The Celestial Palace can be said to be independent of the control of the Celestial Palace, which is unreasonable in itself.

"The Immortal Palace should have a close relationship with the Xuanyuan God... This extraterritorial god occupies the Xuanyuan Vacuum Star Territory outside the territory. I originally thought that he was a being similar to the Star God. Now it seems that he should not be in this way--"

He Ping knew that Divine Lord Xuanyuan had planned to return to the Heart Prison. The envoy sent by the Lord from outside the territory also claimed that he would build a fairy palace on the moon outside the territory, which would not be under the jurisdiction of the Lord of the Divine Court. He did not expect this. Things finally came true at this point in time.

"...The original timeline has indeed undergone some strange changes."

He Ping murmured to himself, seeming to be calculating something.

Finally, he shook his head and asked, "So, do you really think that it was not the Evil Star Alliance or the Immortal Palace that was behind the attack on the Guyang Shi family?"

"I don't think that the Evil Star Alliance is involved in this matter. With the strength of the Immortal Palace, it may not think of playing any tricks on a mere Guyang Shi family..."

Shen Qiwu added, "Unless there is some major benefit, so big that even the Immortal Palace is jealous, but a mere Guyang Shi family is really not worthy. In Guyang City, maybe the Fang family will be jealous of the Shi family, but in the eyes of the Red Palace, it is the meat on the body of an ant or mosquito. It takes a lot of effort to move your fingers. It's really not worth it."

"Your statement is quite interesting."

He Ping smiled softly.

"Then let's do this... Junior, I'm too lazy to make things difficult for you, but what you did before, I have to punish you a little bit, after that, you come to do things for me, I'm going to set up a trap and lure some people into it. You, the 'Golden Flower Thief', must play a role in it, you can't escape this."

"Senior, just give me your orders."

Shen Qiwu could only smile bitterly.

At this point, he didn't have any idea of ​​refusing. If he wanted to survive in front of such a "living devil", he had to do whatever the other party said...

"Very good, you are so tactful, it saves me a lot of hard work."

He Ping knew very well that the more traces he left in this era, the easier it would be for powerful people to find clues.

However, if he used his wisdom, mobilized some chess pieces, and acted on his behalf, he could hide from others, avoid the calculations of some people, and even ignore the cause and effect network set up by the God Court and the Heaven Realm, leaving no trace.

Shi Lin and the Golden Flower Thief "Shen Qiwu" are all his pawns. With their identities, it will be much easier to deal with many issues and avoid supervision from all sides.

…

At the same time, with the invisible instigation, all forces gradually focused their energy on the small area of ​​Chaolu City in Fenglizhou.

The aristocratic families, the immortal sects, the Three Masters, the immortal palace behind the Evil Star Alliance, and the other side, all gradually focused their attention here, like the vast sky, the wind and clouds gathered, the weather was magnificent, and the momentum was unexpectedly calm like before a rainstorm.
