Whether in the dragon world or the world under one person, there are legends about immortals.
In the world of dragons, immortals usually refer to some hybrids or dragons with great supernatural powers that appear in history. The scenes of them using speech spirits were recorded by ordinary people, so there are so-called "myths".
This is actually somewhat similar to the existence of those Dragon Kings.
Those dragon kings have been recorded many times in history, and their names have remained in the mythology as a kind of proof.
Like Odin, Nidhogg, Jormungandr...
They are all real "gods". People witnessed the greatness of the gods, so they created "myths". .
In the world view of one person, "immortal" is an identity and realm.
Although there were no real immortals in the original work of Under One Person until Gu Bei's time travel, but based on the few words in the original work, it can be known that immortals did exist in that world.
Both the Taoist and Buddhist families and all major lineage families have produced immortals.
For example, the Taoists Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Daoling, both of whom became immortals, and Zhuge Wuhou, who gave up becoming immortals for the sake of the people of Shu, decided to use the forbidden seven-star lantern to extend their lives when they were about to die, but the result was still the same. It failed to deceive the way of heaven, and finally returned to the sky.
These are all records about strange people becoming immortals in the past.
Even now, there are many strangers who are pursuing immortality.
After all, there are many benefits to becoming an immortal, including immortality, vast supernatural powers, and invincibility...these are all incidental to becoming an immortal.
Therefore, aliens can also be called immortal cultivators.
Anyway, the core is the same - the difference is that some people's purpose is to cultivate immortality, while some people's purpose is other things, and cultivation of immortality is just the path under their feet.
Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, since a certain point in time, there is no longer a being that can truly ascend in the world under one person.
But there is no doubt that in the world view under one person, immortals are transformed from mortals.
And this process of transformation is alien.
The so-called strange people and strange techniques are actually the path to immortality that practitioners find.
To a certain extent, aliens and magic are more like degraded immortals and magic, the result of stealing the power of immortals in a mortal body.
After all, with a mortal body, there is a high probability that immortal magic cannot be used directly, so it is necessary to degrade the magic so that it can be used normally.
According to this logic, there is indeed some connection between magic and immortality, but few people can directly skip the process of becoming an immortal and evolve the magic they use into immortality.
But now, Gu Bei has achieved this, and these two magical skills, Shen Ji Bai Lian and Tong Tian Lu, have both broken the rules and become immortal arts.
No, rather than saying that it was Gu Bei who did it, it would be better to say that these two magical skills themselves are the qualifications to become immortals, or that all eight magical skills actually have corresponding qualifications.
The Eight Wonders may themselves be immortal arts, and the eight people who first mastered the Eight Wonders did not invent the Eight Wonders, but acquired the Eight Wonders and then used them for their own use.
This should be the reason why the eight magical techniques have varying degrees of side effects - because this was originally an magical technique that could only be used by immortals. Although it has been modified to varying degrees by the original eight people, it cannot be completely The original essence of these eight kinds of miraculous arts as magical arts was eliminated, so these eight kinds of miraculous arts were not called strange arts, but called "magic techniques".
Gu Bei deduced the possible truth bit by bit through fragmented clues. However, at this step, he had more questions.
The runes in the mysterious bamboo slips are immortal inscriptions. In other words, the person who wrote the bamboo slips has at least reached the level of an immortal, so he was able to write such a book. But the problem is that the author of this book who is it?
It certainly wouldn’t be Confucius anyway.
After all, Confucius died earlier than Lao Tzu. If Confucius' death was due to his ascension,
So there is no reason not to record this incident in Lao Tzu's autobiography.
In other words, Confucius did not become an immortal.
In this case, this mysterious bamboo slip was not left by Confucius.
It's probably not Lao Tzu. What I left behind should be left to the descendants of Lou Guandao and Ge Tian. Although it is not impossible that it will fall into the hands of Confucius' descendants, the chance is still too small.
These two people have been eliminated as suspects, so who else can be involved?
Ge Tian?
This guy is very suspicious. After all, this guy has been learning magic from me, and it is not impossible that he can reach the stage of becoming an immortal. But if it is the inheritance of Ge Tian, it should also be left to his own descendants. It’s only right to stay with Lao Tzu’s inheritance.
The question suddenly reached a dead end. After much thought, Gu Bei could not figure out who the author of this bamboo slip was, and there was no signature left on the bamboo slip, as if the author was eager to have a clear relationship with this treasure.
Strange, strange.
Gu Bei rubbed his chin and was distracted. While thinking about the origin of this bamboo slip, he compared the immortal inscriptions carved on the bamboo slips with the evolved runes on the instrument one by one, and studied the path of these runes. and internal architecture.
He was so immersed in the study of immortal literature that he completely forgot that there were other people around him.
Until Lu Mingfei patted his shoulder: "Boss Gu."
"Huh?" Gu Bei replied subconsciously, "What's wrong?"
Lu Mingfei looked helpless: "Please turn off the light."
"???"
When Gu Bei came back to his senses, he realized that his whole body was emitting golden light, like a small sun, illuminating the entire room.
Under this stimulating light, both Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang couldn't open their eyes. Only Fenrir still stared, enjoying every potato chip seriously.
Gu Bei quickly stopped using Qi, stopped the operation of the machine body, then put the bamboo slips back into the safe, and explained: "What, I was just studying the next step to popularize the magic spell, the Taoist Golden Light Spell. , you’ve heard of it, right?”
Encyclopedia Chu Zihang nodded and explained to the illiterate Lu Mingfei: "The Golden Light Curse, one of the eight great divine spells, focuses on cultivating the mind of the Taoist body, and advocates using the inner golden light soul to protect the body."
"Yuan Shen? What Yuan Shen?" Lu Mingfei was puzzled, "Is it the kind in cultivating immortals? But what's the use of the golden light from the Yuan Shen? Throw it out and use it as a flash bomb?"
Hearing Lu Mingfei's speech, Gu Bei's head was filled with confusion and he was too lazy to explain to him.
The study of the immortal texts was interrupted, and Gu Bei no longer had the intention to study the immortal texts and the body of the weapon. He simply picked up a transcript on the table and sorted out useful information with Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang.
This is a tedious job. After all, not all bounty hunters possess important information, but they cannot let go of every confession, because even a very inconspicuous confession may contain important clues. , so you have to read all the records very carefully, and then you will find out - the TD here is all nonsense.
But one thing to say is that the interrogation department did a good job and dug out almost everything they could. Some bounty hunters even revealed the anniversary of their own death. From this point of view, the interrogation The department does have two brushes.
"Oh, right." Chu Zihang suddenly thought of something, pulled out a book from a pile of interrogation records and handed it to Gu Bei, "Here."
"What?" Gu Bei put down the half-read confession in his hand, and then took the one handed over by Chu Zihang. Then he discovered that this interrogation record was unusual.
Because this interrogation record is sealed, the first and last pages of the book are made of kraft paper glued together, which is very strong and not easy to damage.
Moreover, there is a note on the cover: Please ask Mr. Gu Bei, consultant of the magic development department, to open and read it in person.
Okay, I named him!
This thing is... interesting.
Is it some very important information?
Gu Bei stretched out his hand
The book was torn open and the contents were read: "The Interrogation Record of Lin Fenglong by the Interrogation Department of the North China Branch".
Lin Fenglong’s interrogation record?
Of course Gu Bei remembered this little old man. After all, this guy was the first bounty hunter Gu Bei found in the capital, and it was all thanks to him that he was able to pull out the carrots and bring them out of the mud, and caught so many people who wanted to cause trouble. Bounty Hunter.
In addition, there is another reason why Gu Bei can remember Lin Fenglong, and that is the other person's bloodline.
Lin Fenglong's bloodline ranks among the top five among the mixed-races that Gu Bei has seen, even if it is not ranked first.
Although it is only the top five, if you think about it, you should know how valuable this top five is. After all, those who can be ranked in front of Lin Fenglong have basically broken away from the level of hybrids.
For example, the previous Shadow King who broke through the boundaries of blood inheritance and the Dragon King of the Fierce Ghosts, the weapons secretly cultivated by the Snake Qiba Family, etc.
There is no critical value for these people at all. Their bloodline can be infinitely exceeded. To a certain extent, they can be considered purebloods. It is normal for Lin Fenglong to be unable to compare with them.
Among the general mixed-race species, Lin Fenglong's bloodline was definitely the strongest Gu Bei had ever seen, even worse than Anger.
A mixed race of this degree pretended to be a native of Yuzhou, and also obtained a legitimate identity in the country, and lived there for a long time, just like a real immigrant.
If Gu Bei wasn't very sensitive about blood, he might have been fooled.
All this also makes Lin Fenglong's identity confusing.
After all, this is not something that can be explained by the identity of a bounty hunter. He is a high-blooded hybrid hidden in the country incognito, and he also hides many secrets.
If this person is a native, that's fine. But if he is an outsider, the threat is no less than a time bomb.
Therefore, Gu Bei still attaches great importance to Lin Fenglong.
The efficiency of the interrogation department did not disappoint him, and Lin Fenglong's interrogation record was submitted so quickly.
Gu Bei turned to the first page and started reading word by word.
