Chapter 263 Immortality
When Li Yi was mentioned, all the civil and military officials in the court began to whisper to each other.
"So, could Daozu really be an immortal god?"
"It should be. Otherwise, how can we explain Li Yi's inheritance? He can indeed control the thunder."
"Yes, Li Yi's strength is far beyond his realm, it's incredible."
"If Fengtian is protected by immortals and gods, whether true or false, the people of the world will definitely be on your side, which will be of great benefit to the development of Fengtian."
"Your Majesty is wise."
Listening to the discussions of the ministers, Li Ya smiled even more. The sudden appearance of the Great God of Savior made the ministers' resistance to the Taoist Ancestor disappear, and those who opposed him were also afraid that the Taoist Ancestor was really a fairy god.
There are gods above us. If they slander the Taoist master and the Taoist master finds out...
Just thinking about it scares them.
After some discussion, Li Ya named Li Yi the Thunder God of Heaven and announced it to the world.
Not only the Fengtian Dynasty, but other dynasties were also shocked by the great god of savior.
Those were the seven great demon saints, yet they were killed by the immortal gods, not even their physical bodies were left!
The power of the demon tribes in various sea areas is indeed weakening, forcing the various dynasties to believe it.
The other side.
Bai Zun was listening to his men's reports on the cliff. In addition to telling the information about also mentioned Emperor Wu Ren.
After Emperor Wu Ren was resurrected, he wandered around the world. Because he was too powerful, he acted recklessly and caused quite a stir.
“My Lord, the one who was looking for Emperor Wu Ren before can’t really be considered the Martial Emperor. They are already a new race. Once they unite, it will definitely be a huge blow to the human race.” The masked man said in a deep voice.
He became infuriated when that existence was mentioned.
Bai Zun's expression became complicated, and he asked faintly: "Am I really wrong?"
The masked man gritted his teeth and said, "Wu Di Island sacrificed so many warriors, but in the end it was all in vain. My Lord, please don't follow Wu Di Island's path again. It's not worth it. You can do more for the human race. In addition to relying on the ancient Wu Emperor, the human race must have other ways!"
Bai Zun sighed.
The masked man continued, "The resurrected Emperor Wu was infertile. Our people investigated that existence. He tried to find a human woman to reproduce, but failed. That's why he was eager to find Emperor Wu Ren. Since they can't have children and don't protect the human race, why bother pursuing them?"
Bai Zun said: "It seems that the heaven is fair. It gave them extremely powerful bodies, but also cut off their possibility of forming a tribe."
He shook his head and asked, "I will no longer pursue the power of the Ancient Martial Emperor. Let's start looking for Dajing next."
The masked man was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Why are you looking for Da Jing?"
Nowadays, everyone in the world is discussing the great god who saves people from suffering. After Wudi Island disappeared, no one paid attention to Dajing except them, as if the human race did not have Dajing at all.
"How can there be so many immortals and gods in this world? If there really are, why didn't they help the human race in the past ? I think the Great God of Rescue is related to the Taoist Ancestor."
Bai Zun said meaningfully: "Perhaps the reason why Daozu did not ascend the throne to become emperor is that he felt that he was not strong enough, so he was lying dormant, but he could not bear to see the human race suffer, so he could only hide his identity and take action."
The masked man's pupils dilated, and he suddenly understood. He suppressed his excitement and said, "Indeed, I was wondering before, how could the human race not have the talent of a Martial Emperor? If it is Daozu, then it can be explained. Every time Daozu takes action, no matter how strong the enemy is, they will not be his opponent. And his legends are like those of an immortal. He is indeed a talent of a Martial Emperor."
"Well, do your best to investigate Da Jing's whereabouts. Tell me immediately after you find Da Jing. You can put everything else aside."
After Bai Zun finished speaking, he closed his eyes and continued practicing.
The masked man breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, as long as the Lord gave up the plan to resurrect Emperor Wu, it would be fine.
…
The departure of Xing Shou caused a lot of discussion among the civil and military officials in the court of Dajing. In the court of Dajing, the civil and military officials were more afraid of Xing Shou than Jiang Che. Jiang Che was a wise monarch, but Xing Shou was cruel and specialized in helping the emperor do shameful things.
This discussion lasted for several months, and Xing Shou was gradually forgotten.
It's the New Year again.
The fifty-first year of Taihe.
In the imperial study, Jiang Che raised his head and looked at the spring scenery outside the window. He was already 106 years old, breaking the record for the oldest emperor in the history of Dajing. He looked only in his 50s or 60s.
His longevity also makes the people of Dajing more optimistic about its future. As long as the wise ruler lives a long life, Dajing will continue to soar.
It has been thirty-eight years since we came to Taihuang. The common people have become accustomed to the existence of the ferocious beasts in Taihuang and to stronger martial arts, and Dajing has officially become stable.
Jiang Che was confused.
The world is unified, there are no powerful enemies outside, the country is prosperous and the people are safe. No matter how hard he tries, he can't achieve higher achievements. As for promotion to the Holy Dynasty, as the emperor, he knows the background of Dajing best. He can't see the hope of establishing a Holy Dynasty at all. It is impossible for a Holy Dynasty to appear in the emperor's time.
Jiang Che suddenly wanted to take a rest.
Anyway, the world will not be in chaos. After working hard all his life, he should relax.
Thinking of Xing Shou again, Jiang Che's heart became hot.
If he could live forever, he could work hard to pursue the Holy Dynasty.
Become an immortal!
This idea quickly took root in Jiang Che's heart and could not be stopped.
A figure walked quickly into the imperial study. It was the Thief God. He was now a warrior in the Golden Body Realm and not far from the Qiankun Realm. He had good aptitude and sat in a high position. He had obtained countless resources, so his realm would naturally continue to improve.
"Your Majesty, the group of alchemists have arrived. Please see when they will meet?"
The thief god asked respectfully.
Jiang Che stood up and said, "Then go and take a look."
The God of Thieves was hesitant to speak. He really wanted to ask Jiang Che why he didn't go to Daozu, but then he thought, Daozu had an extraordinary status and it was impossible for him to help Jiang Che refine the elixir wholeheartedly.
Moreover, what Jiang Che was pursuing was not an elixir that could enhance his martial arts skills, but an elixir of immortality!
…
Time flies.
Five years passed.
Jiang Changsheng's clone came back again, and the number of pages in the Classic of Mountains and Seas had reached 145. The deeper he went into the wilderness, the more ferocious beasts he encountered, and even the number of evil spirits with bad luck increased.
He created a new clone and let it leave with the two treasures. Then he looked at Yang Zhou who was tempering his body in the courtyard.
Mu Lingluo returned to Murong's house at the beginning of the year. Ye Xundi and Sword God had not returned yet, and this was even more so for Jiang Jian and the other two. Jiang Jian and Lin Haotian had already reached the second cave heaven realm, while Ping An had successfully broken through to the first cave heaven realm.
The three Baiqi demons also began to prepare to break through the Qiankun realm, and everyone was making progress.
The territory of Dajing was also expanding steadily. What's interesting is that the current emperor began to ignore the affairs of state, and the dissolute prince was forced to start taking control of state affairs. He went from being a playboy in the capital to being busy with state affairs. There was nothing he could do as the prime ministers were chasing him, and he didn't want Dajing to collapse, so he could only grit his teeth and start to get busy.
This story is widely circulated among the people.
Most people believed that Jiang Qing would become a tyrant, but they did not expect that after the current emperor gave up, the prince would wake up instead.
Jiang Changsheng couldn't blame Jiang Che for his behavior. After all, he really couldn't refine the elixir of immortality. Even if he told Jiang Che, Jiang Che would not give up. From Jiang Che's perspective, immortality was the only thing he could pursue.
Apart from this matter, Jiang Changsheng is enjoying his current life. It's nice to practice alchemy and look at the vast world when he has nothing to do.
When Ji Wujun saw him open his eyes, he immediately came to his side and whispered, "Daozu, something is wrong in the capital recently. Have you noticed?"
Jiang Changsheng said nonchalantly: "Well, it doesn't have much impact."
Ji Wujun couldn't help but be curious and asked, "You have discovered it, what's going on?"
In the past year, she had felt the capital's fortune fluctuating on several nights, but it recovered at dawn. The fluctuations were not large, but they occurred several times, causing her to worry.
"It's nothing, don't worry about it, as long as it doesn't hurt the people, and this is also the emperor's wish."
Jiang Changsheng's words were casual, but they made Ji Wujun even more curious.
Involving the emperor?
Bai Qi looked up and said, "No wonder. I went to the capital several times at night and heard faint wailing sounds coming from the palace. It turned out that the emperor was causing trouble. Could he have gone insane in pursuit of immortality?"
Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes again and said, "As long as it doesn't harm others, let him do whatever he wants."
Even if he tried to stop him, what would be the use? Would he force Jiang Che to give up the pursuit of immortality and just be the emperor?
Doing so would only have a counterproductive effect, unless he wanted to depose Jiang Che from the throne, but that would be unfair to Jiang Che.
Ji Wujun sighed, "Immortality is something everyone aspires to, but even a powerful person like Emperor Wu will die one day, only his body will be immortal."
Bai Qi said: "Practice martial arts well and increase your lifespan, isn't that more practical?"
Ji Wujun said: "Although the life span of the emperor is longer than that of the emperor of the Yun Dynasty, it is also limited. They cannot live longer than the Qiankun Realm, and may not even live as long as the Jinshen Realm. Even if they abdicate the throne, this fate will follow them. This is the fate of the emperor of the Yun Dynasty. Even if they become the emperor of the Holy Dynasty, they will be trapped by the deadline. Except for the Emperor Wu who founded the dynasty, the longest-lived emperor of the Holy Dynasty was only 500 years old."
Bai Qi grinned and said, "That's fair. God is just."
Ji Wujun did not refute, everything has its own rules.
The other side.
Inside the emperor's bedroom.
Jiang Che, wearing only his underwear, lay in the pool, enjoying the nourishment of the medicinal herbs, his head resting on a woman's legs.
This woman was Jiang Che's new concubine appointed two years ago. Her name was Yu Fei. She had a graceful figure and glamorous makeup. She was massaging Jiang Che's head.
"Your Majesty, the elixir taught by Little Penglai has no effect?"
Yu Fei asked softly, her tone gentle.
Jiang Che closed his eyes and said, "No, they are all cowards."
Concubine Yu rolled her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to hunt the Dragon Blood Mountain Turtle? The Dragon Blood Mountain Turtle is one of the longest-lived beasts in Taihuang. Its blood can be refined into pills, which will surely increase your lifespan and allow you to live for a thousand or ten thousand years. This will give you more time to pursue immortality."
