Killing God - Chapter 1

Chapter 1 Tianyi Floor
Through the quiet backyard courtyard and past a few small corridor gardens, Shen Shi walked expressionlessly along the corridor road. He could feel the noise coming from the lively voice in front of him. It was the voice that he had been familiar with ever since he was young. Not long after, he circled around a wall and saw a door hanging from the curtain. When he arrived, the noise became much louder. Shen Shi stopped and stared at the door. After a moment, he took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. Then, he took a step forward. In the blink of an eye, a wave of sound rushed towards him.

One year’s plan was in the spring, and one day’s plan was in the morning. Although it was still early in the morning, his father, Shen Tai, had just opened the Heavenly First Floor in Xilu City, which had been in operation for more than ten years, the spacious and spacious shop hall was already packed with people and guests flowed endlessly.

Amongst the Primordial Chaos Realms, the Primordial Chaos Realm, commonly known as the ‘Primordial Chaos Master Realm’, was the most important and vast realm. Since ancient times, the vast majority of living beings had gathered in this boundless and enormous world that had yet to be fully explored. The rest of the known worlds were traditionally regarded as subordinate worlds of the Primordial Chaos Master Realm, but they had to pass through some ancient teleportation formations left behind from the mysterious ancient times to reach those other worlds.

Amongst the various worlds, the Primordial Chaos Master Realm’s land area far exceeded that of all the other worlds combined. From tens of thousands of years ago, during the ancient Heavenly Yao Royal Court era, there was a geographical division of the “Primordial Chaos City’s 90 provinces”. Under the convention, even though it was now a prosperous era for humans, this division was still universally acknowledged.

The so-called city was naturally the imperial capital of the Immemorial Era, Tianhong City. It was an enormous city that had surpassed 10,000 years and was known to condense the essence of the Primordial Chaos Realms. It stood tall in the middle of the Primordial Chaos Continent and bordered on the east coast of the Inner Sea. The city was incomparably large, and it was already to an unimaginable extent. Legend has it that the city was wrapped in two enormous mountain ranges. The number of people living in the city was countless. Hundreds of millions of people lived in the city. They were incomparably prosperous and overwhelming. They were capable of overriding all the great continents with the power of a city. It was exactly what everyone in the world yearned for. If they hadn’t been to Tianhong City once in their lives, they would probably be living in vain as the capital of the Sacred City.

As for the remaining vast territory of the Primordial Chaos Continent, it was divided into 90 continents of varying sizes. However, in reality, the size of the Primordial Chaos Main World was astonishingly vast. Even the smallest continent had an area of millions of kilometers and countless people. In this era when the human race was thriving and the Immortal Dao was flourishing, there was a vibrant scene everywhere.

Shen Shi was located on the southwest side of the Primordial Chaos Continent, commonly known as the “Yin Continent”. It was said that it was named after a large mountain range that stretched across the continent. Within the ninety continents of Primordial Chaos City, the Yin Continent was located in the southwest corner, but its area was vast. Among the several continents in the southwest, it could be considered a prosperous place.

Because the immortal dao in this world is extremely prosperous, In the Yin Province, there were also numerous cultivation sects. Especially, there was one that was ranked among the most famous cultivation sects today. It was called the Profound Yin Sect. It occupied the most famous Heavenly Yin Mountain in the Yin Province. There were a large number of elites in the sect. It was a prosperous situation. In the cultivation world of the Yin Province, it could be said to be the strongest sect.

Shen Tai was also a disciple of the Profound Yin Sect in the past. However, this short and fat man’s talent in cultivation was average. After cultivating for many years, he was still stuck in the most basic Qi Refining Realm and was unable to advance inch by inch. He was even unable to break through to the Origin Condensation Realm, which was said to be the true beginning of the path of cultivation.

If Shen Tai failed to cultivate, he could only helplessly stop thinking about the Immortal Dao that everyone in the world yearned for. Helplessly, he could only come as an outer sect disciple to Heavenly Yin Mountain, the largest city within a radius of 10,000 kilometers, Xilu City, and concentrate on managing the affiliated Heavenly First Floor business for his sect. However, no one expected that, Shen Tai Xiu said, but unexpectedly exploded with extraordinary talent in business, In just over ten years, he had turned the originally mediocre Heavenly Floor into one of the two largest shops in Xilu City. Every day, he earned countless spiritual crystal wealth from the wandering cultivators and fed them back to the Xuanyin Gate. Over the years, the amount was so great that it could be described as the Golden Mountain and Silver Sea.

Based on Shen Tai’s status as an outer sect disciple over the years, However, it gradually gained the respect of some of the elders in the Xuanyin Sect. Not to mention his only son, Shen Shi, who had been promoted all the way to the Heavenly First Floor, news had also spread from the Profound Yin Sect a few days ago that he would be able to allow some of his disciples to join the sect without having to go through strict screening. This could also be considered a means for the Profound Yin Sect to recruit talented people, just like the other aristocratic clans that had been affiliated to the Profound Yin Sect for hundreds of years.

At this moment, The first floor that opened early in the morning was bustling with activity, Under Shen Tai’s business plan over the years, The first floor of the Heavens was no longer the one that could only sell some of the Profound Yin Gates back then, so he casually tossed them out. A small shop with shallow dao manuals that even he disdained, There were dozens of spacious counters in the spacious shop. Dao techniques, secret manuals, pharmacopoeias, spirit herbs, ores, demon cores, talismans, spirit herbs, spirit pills, and so on. Almost all of the spirit materials involved in the current cultivation path were sold on the Heaven’s First Floor. There were even rare spirit items on the Heaven’s First Floor. Of course, the prices of these good items were also extremely expensive.

At the same time, there was a long counter on the west side of the shop. That was the place where Tianyi Floor estimated to buy spirit materials. Anyone who wanted to sell spirit materials for various reasons in the past would also be willing to buy them. Of course, Tianyi Floor would naturally have a way to sell them at a higher price.

In any case, there were buyers and sellers, and business was booming.

Shen Shi had been playing around with his father since he was young. Almost all of the clerks on the first floor of the Heavens were from the Profound Yin Sect. However, when it came to being a clerk on the first floor of the Heavens, they were naturally outer sect disciples who were unable to cultivate. Everyone recognized this shopkeeper’s young master. Everyone greeted Shen Shi with a smile. Shen Shi also looked the same as usual. He smiled and greeted his older brother and sister with a smile that was incomparably familiar. Although he was not in a hurry, he still walked towards the entrance of the Heavenly First Floor.

In the spacious shop, there was light coming in from the entrance, and figures swaying in and out, as if they were right in front of him.

Shen Shi’s heartbeat was somewhat uncontrollably accelerating, but he was still able to control his words and actions. As he was walking towards the door, a woman in her early twenties poked out from behind a counter on the left and waved to Shen Shi, “Little Stone, wait a moment.”

Shen Shi’s body stiffened. A voice rumbled in his mind, and he immediately stopped. He took a deep breath and turned around to look over there. Then, a smile appeared on his face and he said, “Sister Xiao Hong, is there anything wrong?”

The woman’s name was Xiao Hong. She wore the same clothes as the other shop assistants. At this moment, she waved at Shen Shi and smiled, “Little Stone, hurry up and help sister take a look. There is a guest here who wants to sell spirit herbs, but I can’t make up my mind about this.”

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment before raising his eyebrows and replying straightforwardly, “Alright.” After saying that, he strode over. It was precisely the place where the long counters were purchasing.

Heavenly first floor, backyard.

Shen Tai left the quiet room and walked into the courtyard. He raised his head to look at the distant Heavenly Yin Mountain Range shrouded in dark clouds. A complicated expression flashed across his eyes.

Many years ago, in the depths of that mountain, he and many of his companions of similar ages had the same dreams. He longed for the supreme Immortal Dao and began to cultivate hopefully.

It was at that time that he met that gentle woman.

Afterwards …

He suddenly closed his eyes and shook his head forcefully, as if he was about to throw a thought out of his head. When he opened his eyes again, his expression had returned to calm and indifference. He quietly looked at the mountain one last time before turning around and leaving.

The courtyard was quiet. Most of the people were helping in the busy front hall shops. Only a few figures dressed in the clothes of inner disciples of the Xuanyin Sect flashed past in some secluded corners. That was the power that was specially used to guard the Heavenly First Floor. For example, today’s business on the first floor was booming and he earned a lot of spirit crystals every day. The Mysterious Yin Sect valued this place more and more.

Although Shen Tai’s cultivation was low, But with the momentum of today’s first floor, Ordinary Xuanyin Sect disciples did not dare to underestimate him. After all, no one wanted to go against such a rich god, Moreover, I heard that there were several powerful Grand Elders in the Xuanyin Sect who valued Shen Tai as an outer sect disciple. In the eyes of ordinary disciples, at least, Shen Tai, the shopkeeper of the Heavenly First Floor, was truly a freak who had broken through the cultivation world’s practice of respecting strength. With his weak cultivation, he was respected by everyone.

As for the actual situation behind the scenes, no one knew what was happening in private.

Along the way, Shen Tai met the Xuanyin Sect disciples who were guarding him. They all nodded their heads as a gesture. Occasionally, they would meet someone they were slightly familiar with and would chat with each other with a smile. It looked exactly the same as usual. The Xuanyin Sect disciples who could guard this place were basically all dao practitioners. At the very least, if they stepped into the Origin Condensation Realm, they would be completely different from those outer sect disciples who had no hope of being able to cultivate and could only serve as clerks in the front hall.

After walking through the two courtyards for a while, Shen Tai arrived outside a secluded courtyard. This courtyard was obviously different from the surrounding courtyard. There were a lot of Xuanyin Sect disciples guarding the courtyard. The word “warehouse” was written shockingly outside the door. It was an important place for storing all kinds of spirit materials on the 1st floor of the Heavens.

Seeing Shen Tai come over, the few disciples guarding Xuanyin Sect smiled and greeted him. There was no doubt that Shen Tai was the head shopkeeper of the Heavenly First Floor, and he often visited this place. What was so strange about it?

Shen Tai smiled and chatted with the crowd as usual. Then, he walked into the courtyard, took a bunch of keys from his waist, opened the door, and calmly walked in under the gazes of the crowd.

The door creaked and slowly closed behind him.

The warehouse was very big, but because the doors and windows were tightly shut, the light seemed to be dim. The smile on Shen Tai’s face slowly dissipated.

He coldly looked at the spacious room, the piles of spirit materials that were worth countless mountains, and the sorts of spirit materials that were clearly placed on the shelves. Everything here was the result of his own creation over the years.

He was so familiar with every inch of this place.

However, perhaps after today, he would no longer be able to see these things.

The short and fat man suddenly smiled and walked forward. The sound of footsteps echoed through the shelves. He walked one shelf after another and finally arrived at a certain place in the depths of the warehouse. There was a shelf in front of him. It was different from the other shelves that were filled with spirit materials. There were very few things on this shelf. There were only a few jade boxes. On the back of the shelf was a piece of white paper with four words written on it:

The elders worshipped him.

Shen Tai stretched out his hand and opened one of the jade boxes. Following the opening of the lid, a clear blue light slowly overflowed. In this somewhat dark warehouse, it emitted beautiful colors, lighting up Shen Tai’s face.

He stared at the contents of the box. After a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Then, he smiled coldly. He reached into his arms and fumbled for a moment before pulling it back. A familiar blue light suddenly lit up and flashed in his palm.

It was a strange treasure pearl that shone with a clear blue light. It was translucent and sparkling, as if countless tides were rising and falling within the pearl’s body. Shen Tai’s breathing suddenly became a little anxious. In the gentle blue light, He seemed to clench his teeth and then gently put the blue spirit pearl into the jade box. A moment later, when he put it away, a spirit pearl that was almost exactly the same as before appeared in his hand. However, the blue light did not seem as intense and magnificent as before, but in comparison, the luster of the pearl seemed softer and clearer.

“Pata!”

Shen Tai closed the jade box, hid the blue pearl in his arms, and turned around to leave.
