I, who only wanted to be stable, was turned into a God of War by being AFKed. Chapter 481: Green... Cuckold?
Until he sat in the pavilion, Shen Qian still couldn't help but quietly look at the old man opposite.
No wonder he felt familiar. There were many folk legends about this old man. Shen Qian vaguely remembered that there was a remaining broken Taoist temple in Lucheng when he was a child, and there was a mural of Lao Jun in the main hall.
Don't tell me, I do have some similarities with this old man.
The clone was in the opponent's hands. If the old man was really the one in the legend, Shen Qian probably had no power to resist, so he just sat down obediently.
"Please."
Taishang Laojun placed a cup of hot tea in front of Shen Qian.
Shen Qian carefully picked up the tea cup. Just as his mind was wandering, Taishang Laojun smiled slightly and said, "It's just ordinary tea, no need to think too much."
Shen Qian smiled awkwardly, then picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.
"Huh?"
"Yes, it's Pu'er tea from your hometown."
Seeing the surprise on Shen Qian's face, Taishang Laojun nodded and said, "I occasionally travel, and every time I go, I collect some tea leaves... The soil and water here are a bit poor, so growing vegetables is okay, but growing tea
After all, it’s a bit off.”
"Uh, do you know me?"
Seeing that Taishang Laojun seemed to be very talkative, Shen Qian relaxed and couldn't help but wonder when he heard the other party casually tell his origin.
"Who are you talking about...?"
Taishang Laojun glanced at Shen Qian and said meaningfully.
Shen Qian was startled and almost jumped up from the stool.
The other party's words can be understood as having two meanings from Shen Qian's perspective.
The first is that the other party knows that Shen Qian has been to ancient times, or that Shen Qian has a close relationship with the man in white who has appeared throughout ancient and modern times. Taishang Laojun may be referring to the man in white behind Shen Qian.
The second guess is terrifying...
He is talking about the system.
And no matter which one it is, it is almost equivalent to revealing Shen Qian's biggest secret. Is Shen Qian not surprised now?
"This clone of yours is extremely flawed."
Taishang Laojun pointed to the clone sitting beside Shen Qian and said casually.
It was obvious that Shen Qian had never exposed his relationship with his doppelganger, but the other party still revealed it. However, with the previous sentence as a foreshadowing, Shen Qian seemed very calm here.
"Please give me some advice!"
Shen Qian said calmly.
"All things in the world, those who survive forever, pay attention to the word balance. This clone of yours... is a little too strong."
Taishang Laojun smiled.
After Shen Qian thought for a moment, he knew what the other party meant.
At that time, he was afraid that the forged clone would not be strong enough, so the three main materials Shen Qian collected actually exceeded the expected quantity, and he even overinvested in refining it.
The clone that was finally achieved was not as perfect as Shen Qian expected.
Obviously, this has something to do with Shen Qian investing too much material.
"Is there any remedy?"
After Shen Qian thought about the reason, he asked directly.
"That's not true."
Taishang Laojun said with a smile, "What you think in your heart is the answer."
Shen Qian's expression changed slightly, "You mean...'Tian Feng' can solve this problem?"
"The power of the star is injected into the body, and it can also be used to strengthen the body, remove impurities, and become completely natural and perfect."
Taishang Laojun smiled slightly and said.
"Is it possible to attract the 'Heavenly Feng' in the heavenly realm?"
Having reached this point, Shen Qian stopped being secretive and directly exposed his ambition.
The fundamental reason why he came to find his clone was to complete the "Heaven Sealing" ceremony so that his clone could truly possess the basic combat power of a prince.
Only in this way can he have enough confidence to deal with the complex situation in heaven.
It's just that Shen Qian is not sure whether the Heaven Realm can attract Tian Feng.
Because when he was in the world of spirit witches, Shen Qian did not directly sense the existence of "Tian Feng", which resulted in his clone having just broken through the peak of mountains and seas, and was only a small step away from the transformation of a prince, and was in an extremely difficult situation.
Embarrassing.
The world of spirit witches is extinct, but the realm of heaven is actually not much better, after all...
This is also a broken world that has collapsed.
It’s just that the world at this time seems to have returned to normal.
"The 'Tao' of the heaven has also been extinguished long ago."
Sure enough, Taishang Laojun shook his head.
Although she had expected it, Shen Qian couldn't help but be disappointed.
"But you can here."
At this moment, Taishang Laojun continued to speak.
"What?"
Shen Qian raised his head in shock when he heard the words, and then realized what was happening. He looked around, "You mean..."
Shen Qian stood up suddenly, yes, this does not seem to be a paradise!
All this was too much of a coincidence. Shen Qian had already realized something, "Did you bring me here on purpose?"
"That's wrong." Taishang Laojun just smiled and said, "Actually, this is just your own choice."
"My own choice?"
Shen Qian frowned, but he didn't want to think too much at this time, "Old gentleman, I still have some questions to ask you. In the past, the Emperor of Heaven..."
"I know what you want to ask."
Taishang Laojun said calmly, "It's a pity that I can't answer you."
"Why?"
"Because I don't know."
"You don't know?!"
Seeing the other party's confident appearance, Shen Qian almost thought that Taishang Laojun was joking with him.
You are one of the legendary Three Pure Ones!
You are a fucking moral god, an antique who has lived for countless millions of years and has witnessed the rise and fall of the heaven. How could you not know?
Moreover, Shen Qian was 99% sure that the Supreme Lord in front of him must be a powerful prince.
Otherwise, how can I control my clone silently?
"Let me ask you, how do you survive a disaster?" Taishang Laojun said softly, seemingly seeing through Shen Qian's distrust.
"Not involved?"
Shen Qian replied subconsciously.
"Hahaha, yes, just don't get involved."
Taishang Laojun laughed, "Then let me ask you again, how can you not get involved?"
"emmm...not connected with cause and effect?"
Shen Qian thought about it this time.
"Yes, there is no cause and no effect, it is natural and leaves no trace."
Taishang Laojun smiled slightly, "Since we have cut off cause and effect, how can we know cause and effect?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"This..."
Shen Qian was speechless for a moment, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what the other party said made sense.
Assuming that Taishang Laojun escaped the so-called heavenly catastrophe by cutting off cause and effect in some way, then it is very reasonable that he had no knowledge of it.
"Then you are now..."
There are still some lakes before sinking.
Assuming that Taishang Laojun has made up his mind to be alone, what will happen if he comes into contact with himself now?
Although there is no complete evidence, Shen Qian always feels that his various entanglements with Tianjing are deeper than he imagined.
"Because this may be the last chance."
Taishang Laojun whispered.
"What last chance?"
Shen Qian then said that he had already made up his mind to ask something today.
"Do you think that this is the first time in history that the catastrophe in the heavens has happened?"
Taishang Laojun sighed.
"What do you mean?" Shen Qian was startled.
"Where is Pangu Nuwa today, where did the gods and goddesses in the sky die, and where did those gods of all races who dominated the heavens go in the end?"
Taishang Laojun said quietly, "Although the vast starry sky is huge, can there be room for it?"
Shen Qian could not speak for a moment, but he carefully understood the meaning behind Taishang Laojun's words.
The first sentence is easier to understand.
The princes are almost immortal, so why are the supreme beings born in the era of chaos no longer seen?
As for that "place of shelter", it is beyond Shen Qian's understanding.
"Laojun, you mean that every era will encounter a catastrophe. So what is the significance of this catastrophe, and who is behind it?"
"Sometimes the truth is not important, what is important is not to repeat the same mistakes."
Taishang Laojun stood up and stared at the deep starry sky, but did not directly answer Shen Qian's question.
At this moment, his back showed some desolation inexplicably.
"What mistakes should we make again?"
Shen Qian frowned.
"You don't have much time."
Taishang Laojun turned around, and before Shen Qian could speak, he had already extended his hand to guide him.
The expression of Shen Qian's clone, which had been in a stagnant state, suddenly became lively.
At the same time, the spiritual connection between Shen Qian and his clone was also restored.
The next moment, Shen Qian found that his clone was floating uncontrollably, leaping into the deep starry sky.
An inexplicable seasonal movement emerged in Shen Qian's heart, and he had to abandon all distracting thoughts and focus all his attention on the clone.
The clone stood in the starry sky, with his arms stretched out, the void was torn apart, and the Daohai projection appeared above his head.
A road leading to the sky appears at the feet of the clone.
This is exactly how the clone has prepared the medicine.
Just like the process of breaking through the prince last time, the clone climbed up the steps along the avenue, and soon broke through the Daohai and stood at the top of the Daohai.
Stepping on the herbal-shaped jade platform, Shen Qian then raised his head.
Above the head, the starry sky symbolizing the realm of princes emerged again.
This time, what Shen Qian saw was still empty, without the bright star field that appeared when King Yan Ling broke through, but the feeling was completely different.
Because the starry sky to Shen Qian no longer feels dead, but contains a kind of vitality.
It's like a land waiting to sprout.
This feeling was very strange. Shen Qian vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put it into words.
After all, he had only seen the scene when King Yan Ling was granted the title of prince, so there were too few objects for reference.
"Gather your mind, focus your consciousness on the starry sky, and then... call."
"Summoning?"
Listening to Taishang Laojun's voice, Shen Qian subconsciously followed the instructions.
The next moment, he finally knew what he was summoning.
A loud "rumbling" sound came from the depths of the starry sky, and a faint light began to appear in the deepest part of the dark starry sky.
The light appeared for an extremely long time, as if it were a real seed trying to break through the ground.
Shen Qian, who was inexplicably anxious, tried hard to communicate with the little light with his mind.
Stimulated by Shen Qian, the light finally emerged completely and turned into a tiny star, and the blooming brilliance became several times brighter.
The halo of light gathered, refracted from a distance, and reflected on the top of Shen Qian's head.
"In the name of heaven, I will cast your crown!"
In the dark, there was an indistinguishable male and female voice that sounded vaguely.
But this sound... seems to be different from the loud sound that appeared when King Yanling was sealed.
But now that he was in it, Shen Qian had no time to think more.
Because as the voice sounded, a green crown began to gather above Shen Qian's head.
Green...green?
Even at this time, Shen Qian couldn't help but want to complain, can you change the color?
Even if this is just Shen Qian's clone, he doesn't want to run around like a cuckold!
Unfortunately, this princely crown seems to be closely related to his own "Tao" attribute.
King Yan Ling's "method of stealing magic" is ethereal and invisible, and condenses into a beautiful green color. After all, his method of refining medicine is based on vegetation, so it seems that it can only be this weird green color...
Boom!
The starlight brought not only the illusory crown, but also the elemental power flowing in the clone body.
Under Shen Qian's surprised gaze, those elemental powers began to be filled with bits of starlight, turning into another, more powerful energy.
Star power!
Only when you have star power can you truly enter the realm of princes.
Shen Qian's physical and mental strength did not undergo much transformation. After all, when he broke through last time, these two areas had actually transformed under the mysterious gray mist.
Things like immortality have been basically operated.
Essentially speaking, Shen Qian's clone is far away from the prince, and what it lacks is the power of the stars.
But this is precisely the reason why princes can crush mountains and seas!
Finally stepping into the realm of princes, Shen Qian's clone looked around. The awe-inspiring power on his body made it difficult to look directly at the main body.
The only thing that feels a little strange is that in the vast star field in the distance, there is only one solitary star in sight.
After the crown was cast, a vague staircase emerged from beneath the sinking feet, reaching the deepest part of the star field and faintly connected to the star.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The road of spiritual practice for princes is to build this staircase and eventually reach the end of the star field.
Shen Qian already knew this, but unfortunately because the residual consciousness of "Baicao Jing" was still there, Shen Qian still did not dare to take this step easily.
Regarding this problem, Shen Qian doesn't have any good solutions yet.
Perhaps only when his avatar's mental power is strong enough to get rid of the influence of self-consciousness fostered by the "Hundred Herbs Classic", or when the avatar becomes a guest, can the avatar continue to practice smoothly in the realm of princes.
But for now, a clone that already has the power of a prince is enough.
At least according to Shen Qian's perception, the clone's combat power has been greatly improved, and he is no longer the fake prince.
With the end of the transformation, the clone's consciousness returned to reality, and the Daohai above the head and the starry sky illusion also began to dissipate.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading,
"It's done?"
When Shen Qian heard the words, he turned around, only to see Taishang Laojun standing aside with a smile on his face.
I just don’t know if it’s Shen Qian’s imagination, but Taishang Laojun’s face seems a little pale.
"Thank you for your help."
Regardless of what role the other party played in Shen Qian's encounter, Shen Qian and his clone still bowed respectfully to each other at the same time.
After all, it was because of the other party's existence that Shen Qian's clone was able to successfully complete the Heavenly Seal in this heavenly realm.
"In that case, it's time for you to go to Yaochi."
Taishang Laojun nodded and suddenly waved his hand.
"Ah?"
Shen Qian was stunned for a while. He still had many questions that he had not had time to ask. But the next moment, he and his clone were flying uncontrollably towards the black hole leading to the sky.
What the fuck?
Shen Qian was shocked, forgetting his true form, but his clone had clearly become a prince, yet he still had no power to resist in front of the Supreme Lord.
