Chapter 1 - Lin Fan's Unexpected Encounter

Lin Fan walked leisurely down the street, enjoying the clear sky above him. But suddenly, a thick bolt of lightning struck him, and everything turned silvery white before he was plunged into darkness.

When Lin Fan opened his eyes again, he found himself standing in front of a half-person-high wooden sign that read "The Heavenly Compensation Office" in crooked characters. Behind the sign was an old turtle with a massive tortoise shell and squinted eyes, seemingly dozing off in the afternoon.

Confused, Lin Fan muttered to himself, "Where am I?"

The old turtle slowly lifted its head and rubbed its sleepy eyes with a paw.

"Is this traverser illiterate? Don't you know how to read the characters of the Heavenly Compensation Office?" the old turtle said with contempt, looking down at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was taken aback and retorted, "I can read! It says 'The Heavenly Compensation Office'! But why am I here? Wasn't I just walking down the street?"

The old turtle, lazily flipping through a blue book it had retrieved from the ground, replied, "You forgot? You were struck by lightning and died. According to the regulations of the heavenly court, in Thunder Heavenly Sovereign's line of duty, if a mistake is made, the affected person is entitled to free compensation and gets to travel to another world with their memory intact, as stated in Chapter 327, Article 8, Subparagraph 4."

The old turtle's nonchalant demeanor and carefree attitude annoyed Lin Fan, who was known for his shrewdness and quick thinking.

"What kind of compensation am I getting then?" Lin Fan asked skeptically.

The old turtle took out three golden leaves from under its shell, weighed them, and said, "This time you're in luck! These three golden leaves contain 'The True Scriptures of Life', 'The True Scriptures of Death', and 'The True Scriptures of Soul'. Each one is a supreme scripture on its own."

"The Scriptures of Life" can shape a peerless body, granting immortality and rebirth.

"The Book of Death" can control the dead, manipulate zombies, and wield immense destructive power.

"Soul Truth" can unravel the rules, point to the great dao, and achieve eternal existence.

And when combined, the three can unleash an invincible superpower that transcends the world - the Great Resurrection Technique."

The old turtle's excitement was palpable as it rambled on about the benefits of the golden leaves, resembling a salesperson on a TV shopping program.

However, Lin Fan's keen senses told him that something was amiss. The old turtle's sudden change in demeanor from indifferent to enthusiastic was suspicious.

"This doesn't seem right. Just moments ago, it was so laid-back, and now it's behaving like a salesman. There must be something wrong," Lin Fan thought to himself.

"I want to inspect the goods," Lin Fan said cautiously, not fully convinced.

The old turtle glared at him with its small eyes and slapped the ground, exclaiming, "You still don't trust me after I've explained it to you?"

"I don't trust easily," Lin Fan replied confidently, taking advantage of the old turtle's distraction to snatch the three golden leaves with one hand.

As soon as the golden leaves touched his palm, they emitted a dazzling light. The green, gray, and white auras of the three scriptures swirled around Lin Fan, enveloping him in an ancient and powerful aura of reincarnation.

The old turtle was stunned, muttering, "But... these scriptures were said to be fake! No one has practiced them in millions of years!"
