Upon seeing this, the emperor found it even more astonishing and became even more certain that Qin Hao possessed the secret to immortality.
Similarly, Qin Hao also scanned the emperor.
[Name: Ying Zheng]
[Identity: Emperor of the Qin Empire]
[Strength: Ordinary mortal, extremely weak]
[Synopsis: The First Emperor, who single-handedly conquered the other six kingdoms...]
Holy crap, is it really Qin Shi Huang, Li Si, Zhao Gao?
Qin Hao was also extremely shocked.
He believes that this is a Virtual World, and that it is simulated according to the history of China on Blue Star.
After all, when he first arrived, it was indeed the Zhou Dynasty, but the era of Martial King had already passed.
"Hahaha, Haotian Celestial Master, you are truly a divine being! From this day forward, Haotian Celestial Master shall be appointed Imperial Preceptor!"
Qin Shi Huang shouted excitedly.
At this moment, Li Si and Zhao Gao exchanged a glance and immediately took the lead in shouting, "Long live the Emperor!"
With two people leading the way, the civil and military officials quickly joined in, shouting in unison, "Long live the Emperor!"
Qin Hao was speechless, thinking to Laozi, "I only want to comprehend the Origin Power of the laws, I don't want to be some kind of national advisor!"
And so, Qin Hao became the Qin Empire.
In the evening, Qin Shi Huang secretly disguised himself as an ordinary person and personally visited Qin Hao's residence to pay his respects.
"Haotian Celestial Master, I humbly request that you impart to me the secret of immortality!"
Qin Shi Huang immediately knelt down before Qin Hao.
Qin Hao was dumbfounded, thinking to himself, "This is Qin Shi Huang, the Qin Shi Huang! He's actually kneeling before me!"
Qin Hao thought to himself, "This is just Virtual World anyway, so what if you're Qin Shi Huang?"
I am perfectly capable of enduring this kneeling.
"Ahem, you wish to learn the secrets to immortality, and I can teach you, but whether you succeed depends on your own destiny!"
"Furthermore, you must become my disciple, relinquish everything you currently possess, and follow me into seclusion in the mountains to focus on Dao Comprehension. Is that acceptable?"
With his back to Qin Shi Huang, Qin Hao stroked his beard and looked at the bright moon in the sky.
At this moment, Qin Shi Huang, kneeling on the ground, pondered for a while, and then said, "Haotian Celestial Master, the reason I want immortality is that I am unwilling to give up the newly established Qin Empire. If I abandon the Qin Empire, what difference would it make from my death?"
Indeed, Qin Shi Huang wanted immortality so that he could continue to the Qin Empire.
Qin Hao stroked his beard and sighed, "Ah, what a pity!"
"Haotian Celestial Master, must I abandon the Qin Empire and everything in this world before I can learn the secret of immortality?"
Yes, does cultivating immortality truly mean giving up worldly fame, fortune, power, and wealth?
Qin Hao asked himself this question, wondering why everyone on Blue Star had to become Martial Artist since the revival of spiritual energy.
That's because Martial Artists enjoy rights and wealth that ordinary people don't.
Moreover, not only on Blue Star, but throughout the entire Initial Universe, or the Kaiyuan Universe, everyone pursues great power in pursuit of greater rights.
In short, whether it's a cultivation civilization or an ordinary civilization, they are all the same; they are all pursuing power and wealth.
Immortality is merely a desire to enjoy the rights and wealth one has gained for a longer period.
It's understandable that Qin Shi Huang thought this way.
"Very well, I can teach you the secret to immortality, but whether you can learn it depends on your own fate."
"Thank you, Haotian Celestial Master. From this day forward, you are my master!"
"No, forget about Master. You are still you, the ruler of a country, and I am still me, a wretched old man!"
After saying this, Qin Hao told Qin Shi Huang the secret to immortality.
The method to achieve immortality is very simple: it is to comprehend the Origin Power laws.
There's nothing we can do; we live in the Dharma-Ending Age, where laws are obscured and spiritual energy has vanished.
The only thing that can grant immortality is probably the Origin Power of the laws.
Let alone Qin Shi Huang, even Qin Hao, after using the Life Simulation so many times, has only just begun to grasp a little bit of it this time.
Well, Qin Hao didn't succeed in anything; he only managed to prolong his lifespan. However, living for several hundred years is still considered longevity.
The entire transmission of the Dharma was very simple. Qin Hao simply said that you must comprehend the Origin of the Laws of heaven and earth, and when you can glimpse even a trace of them, you will be able to achieve immortality.
"Hmph! Haotian Celestial Master, it's just a method for achieving immortality, are you really unwilling to pass it on to me?"
When Qin Shi Huang heard this, he felt that Qin Hao was making a fool of him, so he was very angry.
"Haha, Your Majesty, believe it or not, I did say it, this is why I asked you to give up everything in this world and retreat with me to the mountains to focus on comprehending the Origin of the Laws!"
After saying that, Qin Hao walked out of the mansion.
"Your Majesty, achieving immortality is not so easy. I have experienced hundreds of life-and-death situations before I could even glimpse an Origin of the Laws; otherwise, I would have died long ago!"
And so, Qin Hao left the mansion amidst the complex gaze of Qin Shi Huang.
This mansion is the residence of the Imperial Preceptor, bestowed upon him personally by Qin Shi Huang himself.
"Furthermore, I would like to offer Your Majesty a word of advice: do not be too obsessed with immortality, or you may not have many years left to live."
"How dare you curse me! Since you're toying with me like this, so what if you're an immortal? I will find you and kill you!"
After leaving the mansion, Qin Hao listened to Qin Shi Huang's loud cursing and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Sigh! I've already said it, whether you do it or not is up to you. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do!"
In fact, Qin Hao observed Qin Shi Huang's physical condition and concluded that if he hadn't been so obsessed with immortality and spent his days seeking out alchemists to concoct elixirs, he could have lived for a very long time.
However, if one takes elixirs frequently, one may die prematurely from the heavy metals contained in them.
Elixirs, what are elixirs?
In the Kaiyuan Universe, there is a concept of elixirs, because Kaiyuan Universe is highly developed there.
However, that pill was no ordinary pill; it was the essence extracted from a true spiritual herb, so its effects were naturally different.
In the Dharma-Ending Age, let alone spiritual herbs, there is no spiritual energy at all, so how could one possibly refine pills? It's simply impossible.
Sigh, it seems I still can't leave. I need to give Qin Shi Huang a warning tomorrow.
Early the next morning, in the imperial court!
"Hmph, I knew yesterday that this Haotian Celestial Master wasn't a good person!"
Li Si said.
Li Si took the lead, and everyone echoed in unison, "Yes, Your Majesty, this so-called Haotian Celestial Master is nothing but a show-off, a complete fraud!"
"Hmm, not bad. This Haotian Celestial Master last night because he was unable to teach me the secret to immortality. Immediately order his arrest!"
At this moment, Zhao Gao, who was beside Qin Shi Huang, walked up to Li Si with a smile on his face.
"Hmph, Lord Li, do you still remember our agreement?"
"Who are you? Who are you?!"
Li Si looked at Zhao Gao in front of him and said with a surprised expression.
"Who am I? Look closely!"
As he spoke, Zhao Gao transformed into the likeness of Qin Shi Huang!
"What, Your Majesty?"
At this moment, in the imperial court, Qin Shi Huang also looked shocked.
"Look at me more closely, who am I?"
As he spoke, the person in front of him suddenly transformed into a white-bearded old man with white hair and a youthful face.
"Haotian Celestial Master, how dare you show your face here?"
Li Si shouted at Qin Hao.
If we were to name the people who hated Qin Hao the most, it would be Li Si and Zhao Gao, followed by Qin Shi Huang.
At this moment, Qin Shi Huang shouted, "Guards, execute this traitor!"
