Thank you to all those who read the book!)============================================================================================================================================================================================================

Wu Zetian looked out the window and fell deeply into the memories of the past. Even though she was the empress of the past, she was still a mortal after all. In the face of power and in the face of supreme power, she could not resist the temptation like many people.

"What after you get the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Fraud?" Chu Tianci asked, looking at her back.

"The Queen of Heaven was worried that Yuan Tiangang was upright and loyal at the time. He didn't want Li Chunfeng to be tactful and worried that he would reveal the future affairs of the Queen of Heaven, so the Queen of Heaven ordered me to confiscate Yuan Tiangang's house overnight without leaving any survivors." Shangguan Wan'er took the speech and answered.

"You...you killed...Yuan Tiangang?!"

"Who is Yuan Tiangang? He has long been able to understand the secrets of heaven. When Wan'er brought people to arrive, Yuan Tiangang and his family were gone." Wu Zetian said in a low voice. "Wan'er brought me a letter and left it at Yuan Tiangang's house. It was written for me. In the letter, he said bluntly that I would be the noble of the Nine Five in the future, so why should I force things in the future? He told me not to be obsessed with the secrets in the book. Although he handed over the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Law, he took another thing away!"

Chu Tianci raised his head and asked in surprise.

"What did Yuan Tiangang take away?"

"The necklace you are wearing now!"

Chu Tianci was stunned, lowered his head and looked at the Eight Dragon Beaded Necklace hanging around his neck, and said in surprise.

"My necklace?! This necklace is...Yuan Tiangang's?!"

"The necklace you are wearing is called the Jiulong Plate. In fact, the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decision is not a book, but a book and a jade, which complement each other and are inseparable from each other." Shangguan Wan'er said calmly next to her.

"How come this necklace is related to the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Skill?" Chu Tianci still didn't quite understand.

"The Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Skill is known as the study of seizing the creation of heaven and earth. It is the supreme treasure of the five Taoist techniques. It is known as the study of emperors and is the highest level of the five arts. It has a total of 7749 chapters. This book records the essence of the five arts, including Taoism, geomantics, physiognomy, physiognomy, medicine, etc., and there are also the art of eternal life and methods to predict future generations. Only after learning can you understand the heaven and earth, and you will be immortal and predict the future." Wu Zetian turned around and said lightly. "The essence of the five Taoist techniques hidden in the Nine Dragon Plate Pearl. If you can comprehend the mystery of the five Taoist techniques, you can fully understand the secrets of the five arts of Taoism, and you can understand the heaven and earth. Moreover, only those who comprehend the mystery of the Eight Dragon Pearls can truly understand the mystery of the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Skill."

"No, you said that this necklace is called Jiulong Plate, but I only have eight dragons on this necklace, and there is one more?"

"I am another dragon!" Wu Zetian said in a surprising way.

"you?!"

"The Nine Dragon Pan Bead is a psychic ancient jade. The art of Heluo is respected by nine. There are only eight dragons on it. It falls into the hands of ordinary people and is just an ordinary ancient jade. But once the jade finds its owner, the ninth dragon returns to its position, and the mystery of the Nine Dragon Pan Bead will naturally appear."

Chu Tianci still didn't quite understand the mystery and asked with a frown.

"But how do you know who the master is this jade?"

"The Lord of the World is the True Dragon Emperor, and the Emperor is the Dragon! As long as the Emperor drops his blood on the Nine Dragon Plate Bead necklace, the hidden secret of the Nine Dragon Plate Bead will appear." Wu Zetian's eyes fell on the necklace on Chu Tianci's chest. "Yuan Tiangang knew that I would wait for the emperor soon. Once I get the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Plate Decision, wait for me to ascend to the throne and become emperor, and I will definitely comprehend the secrets in the book together with these two things."

"So...so even if Yuan Tiangang handed over the book, he would leave a necklace." Chu Tianci nodded in a sudden realization.

"Tianci, don't you feel strange? With your age and experience, it is impossible to achieve today's achievements and attainments in metaphysics." Shangguan Wan'er looked at Chu Tianci calmly and said. "Qiuo came back and told me that you are a person with the destiny of an emperor. If I was not wrong, you should have accidentally dripped blood on this necklace when you were a child and accidentally opened the Nine Dragon Plate Pearl, allowing you to have a world of metaphysics!"

Chu Tianci looked confused and slowly took off the necklace and put it in his hand. As Shangguan Wan'er said, since he could remember, he seemed to have a different talent for metaphysics than ordinary people. Everything he learned today was learned without a teacher. Chu Tianci couldn't help but be surprised when he thought of this. Unexpectedly, the ordinary necklace that he had been wearing was so magical.

"Without the necklace in your hand, even if there is the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Skill, it will be useless. I ordered the whole country to secretly find Yuan Tiangang's whereabouts, and I never saw him again until I abdicated." Wu Zetian said.

"Since you didn't get the necklace, then... how did you... live until now?"

"I am not interested in the Taoist techniques recorded in the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Practice. I just want to predict the future through this book. If I know what will happen in the future, I will definitely be invincible. But without a necklace, the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Practice is undoubtedly a heavenly book that no one can understand." Wu Zetian sat back on the chair and said slowly. "The person who really discovered the secret in the book was not me, but Wan'er."

Shangguan Wan'er poured a cup of tea for Wu Zetian and said calmly.

"There is a very other article in the second chapter of the book. The queen gave me the book to me for details. When I saw this article, I couldn't read it smoothly. It seemed that the text on it was deliberately so confusing and didn't want people to understand the meaning of it, so I pay attention to this article."

Chu Tianci was drinking tea and quietly listened to Shangguan Wan'er telling the matter.

"Later, Li Chunfeng met the Queen of Heaven and accidentally mentioned that he wanted to arrange the Feng Shui Bagua array in the Queen of Heaven's bedroom. I was inspired by it. Since the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Skill is a Taoist treasure, will this article be related to the Eight Trigrams? Therefore, I combined this article based on the eighty-one changes of the Eight Trigrams. I didn't expect that I could crack the secrets and get a pill recipe."

"Pill recipe?"

Shangguan Wan'er nodded and held the teacup and continued.

"The Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Sentence is known as the book of taking over the creation of heaven and earth, so I think the alchemy recipe recorded in the book must be extraordinary, so I ordered people to secretly refine it and offer it to the Queen of Heaven."

Chu Tianci seemed to have understood this more than half and said calmly.

"You don't know what the use of the elixir is, Aunt Wan, and you can't rashly take it to the queen, so... so you try the medicine for the queen!"

"No, the queen asked the palace maids around her to test the medicine. It was important. I was afraid that the news would leak, so I took the pill."

Wu Zetian looked at Shangguan Wan'er with soft eyes and said apologetically.

"You are just too serious. If you didn't take that pill at that time... hey, it would have made you suffer."

"It is my blessing to be with you for a thousand years, and I have never regretted it until today." Shangguan Wan'er said with a smile.

Chu Tianci took a deep breath and said thoughtfully.

"In addition to the five Taoist techniques in the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Practice, there are also records about immortality. I believe that the alchemy formula obtained by Aunt Wan cracked the text is the immortality technique!"

"After Wan'er took the pill, three years later, I found that Wan'er became younger and younger, and her whole body was radiant, and even her skin became as delicate as a baby. I slowly guessed the purpose of the pill." The Buddhist beads in Wu Zetian's hand paused. "Eternal life... What many people dream of, I am the emperor, who doesn't want to be forever for generations, so I also took the pill, but I didn't expect... to live until now!"

Chu Tianci suddenly raised his head and asked with anticipation in his eyes.

"Since you and Aunt Wan can live forever, you are staying with you, Sanjun Mobao and Chui Gongji, then... the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Leaf is also here with you?"

"Silly kid, if the book is still here with me, why should I go through all my troubles and let you find it?"

"How come the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Leaf is not here with you?"

"I was really happy in the first few years. I enjoyed the two good things that the world dreamed of, and I counted them as no regrets in my life." Wu Zetian sighed. "But as time goes by, my suspicion is getting heavier and more. I am afraid that others will know my secret. Since I can't understand the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Law, I am worried that others will discover it, so I originally wanted to burn this book."

"What about later?" Chu Tianci asked anxiously.

"After all, I didn't have the courage to burn this extraordinary book and hide it properly in the bedroom. In the first year of Shenlong, I was assassinated in the bedroom. Although it was fine, I soon found out that the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Art was missing. Because of this book, I was secretly informed and no one knew about it. It was because of this reason that I was worried about the secret being leaked, so I arranged a court coup with Wan'er for future generations. After abdicating, I died of illness and Wan'er retired to the world."

"The assassin came for the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Art. The only person who knows that you have this book is Yuan Tiangang. Could it be that the assassin is Yuan Tiangang?"

"It's not him. Yuan Tiangang adheres to the secrets of heaven and knows that God's will cannot be violated. He kills me just to go against the heavens. He will not do this. Besides, Yuan Tiangang has the Nine Dragon Plate Pearl in his hand, so there is no need for him to take the risk of stealing books."

Shangguan Wan'er nodded and continued.

"The Queen of Heaven and I lived away from the world and retired. After several dynasties, we have always wanted to find the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Practice. Until this book fell into Zhu Yuanzhang, but he could not understand the mystery of the book. Until he was seriously ill, he was worried about the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Practice and could not bear to destroy it. So he ordered people to keep this book in the Fourteen Tombs of the Ming Dynasty, hoping that someone will understand it and continue the Ming Dynasty for thousands of generations."

Chu Tianci suddenly realized and finally understood why they knew so much about the Ming Fourteen Tombs.

"Finish the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Leaf and bring the book to me. This book is useful to me and Wan'er!" Wu Zetian said lightly, pulling the Buddhist beads.

"you……."

"Tianci, don't worry about what I have any thoughts. It's been thousands of years. What else can I let go of. But over the past thousand years, after experiencing vicissitudes and seeing good and evil, Wan'er and I have experienced too many things. After seeing more, we have gradually understood more. I am tired!" There was a kind of grieving begging in Wu Zetian's eyes. "I am tired of watching the people around me grow old, and I am tired of the children I adopted die in my eyes. I don't want to see Qiu Nuo again. Tianci, I really want to sleep and get up again!"

Chu Tianci recalled Wu Zetian's words and gradually realized her current mood. The pain of immortality lies in experiencing more grief in the world and having many painful memories. When a person is tired of all this, immortality becomes an endless torture.

"God's Creation, since there is the technique of immortality in the book, there must be a solution. This is another reason why we asked you to find the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Skill." Shangguan Wan'er said earnestly.

"I will definitely bring the book to you!" Chu Tianci said without hesitation.
