Mysterious mirror hanging high

"Fourth brother, I am not proficient in medicine, nor do I have any treasures that can prolong life. I really can't help you."

Jing Yu whispered, "Do you have any other wishes?"

"My wish is to live!"

Zhao Mingcheng's expression turned ferocious, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Zhao Mingjing! Help me this time, just this once!"

"I really can't help you."

"why why!"

Zhao Mingben wanted to push Jing Yu away, but found that the man in front of him did not move at all, and he took several steps back instead.

The dying old man's chest heaved as he gasped for breath. Others could even hear the strange sound of lung fibers tearing and scraping in his shrunken chest. "Why can you stay young forever, but I'm about to die?"

"I am the Emperor of Zhao! I deserve to live forever!"

Zhao Mingcheng cried and laughed at the same time: "Haha! What's the point of being an emperor? What's the point!"

He turned around and picked up a gilded wine jar on the small table beside him. It was the [Golden Cup of Eternal Solidity] that the fifth prince Zhao Minglou presented at Zhao Sheng's birthday banquet thirty-one years ago.

Zhao Mingcheng raised the golden cup above his head, as if to smash it to the ground, but after holding it for a long time, his hand holding the golden cup finally fell down weakly. This intense movement made his head dizzy, and he sat down on the ground, muttering:

"If the Zhao Kingdom is as solid as a golden bowl, without a single flaw... why can't my life span last forever?"

"It's finally come to fruition."

Zhao Mingcheng gently put the golden cup back and said dejectedly:

"Sixth brother, I have actually been hiding a secret in my heart."

"Back then, my second sister's family's Crown Prince Chengyu was killed by assassins I sent."

"Oh it's you……"

Jing Yu slowly closed his eyes. He only felt that the breathing sounds that had been coming and going in the secret compartment of the wall in the hall gradually faded away, and he felt relieved for no reason.

"Chenglu, come here." Zhao Mingcheng waved his hand with difficulty and called the panic-stricken Crown Prince Zhao Chenglu to his side.

"My prince is useless. Sixth brother, after I die, if you are still in the imperial capital, please take care of him. If you leave, you don't have to worry about him."

Then he turned to look at Xu Fang and said, "Lord Xu, I have worked diligently and cautiously for the past twenty-six years. Do I still live up to your expectations?"

Xu Fang just bowed and didn't answer.

"That's all."

Zhao Mingcheng was quite depressed. "Only now do I know what my father said before he died."

"Being an emperor is indeed not pleasant."

"After all, life and death cannot be overcome..."

bang——

As Zhao Mingcheng fell down, the emperor who had ruled Zhao State for 26 years fell into eternal sleep in the spring of the 27th year of Xiangfu.

"Father!" Zhao Chenglu said sadly.

Jing Yu drooped his eyes and looked at Zhao Mingcheng's body on the ground, looking a little listless.

Sent away another...

He knew that this kind of situation would happen many more times in the future.

Soon, several imperial guards came carrying a coffin decorated with golden dragons and respectfully placed Zhao Mingcheng's body into the coffin. They closed the coffin first and did not nail it shut in a hurry. Instead, they carried the body out of Chongming Hall along with the coffin.

Several people in the hall also walked out of the hall. Xu Fang, who was nearly ninety years old, placed his hand on the back of Zhao Chenglu's hand and patted it gently, whispering:

"Your Highness should immediately summon all the ministers to discuss the matter of ascending the throne and stabilize the court."

Jing Yu was wandering around bored, when suddenly his ears moved slightly, and he suddenly raised his head and looked straight towards the sky in the east.

A stream of crimson light with a long flame tail was falling towards the palace at an extremely fast speed!

what is this?

Meteorite meteor?

wrong.

Jing Yu's pupils shrank, and he realized what it was the next moment.

Escape light!

The escape light of the fire monk!

The crimson flame was getting closer and closer, as if it saw everyone gathered outside Chongming Hall, it turned and flew towards the crowd.

The flame hovered in the air outside the hall. It dissipated, revealing a middle-aged scholar with a white face and long beard. He stood on a crimson immortal sword, held a palm-sized hexagonal metal disc in his left hand, and held an orange feather fan in his right. He looked at Zhao Chenglu, who was dressed in bright yellow, and slowly asked, "Are you the emperor of this mortal dynasty?"

Zhao Chenglu had a bewildered look on his face, but Xu Fang beside him seemed to have recalled something. His eyes bulged out, and he seemed to be grasped by an invisible hand, unable to move.

"I'm asking you a question!" the middle-aged scholar frowned and shouted.

"Ah? My father has just passed away. I am indeed the humblest person in the Eastern Palace, but I haven't even ascended the throne yet..." Zhao Chenglu wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied hurriedly, "The person next to me is my uncle, Sixth Uncle. You..."

"Sixth Uncle?" Zhao Chenglu turned around and saw that besides the old man Xu Fang who looked as if he was frightened silly, there was no trace of Jing Yu.

"Ah?" Zhao Chenglu looked frightened and stood still for a moment.

"Hmm, the sixth level of Qi training..."

Just as Zhao Chenglu stood there stiffly, Jing Yu walked out from Chongming Hall.

When he first saw the fiery red escape light, he thought it was another foundation-building cultivator. Before the cultivator landed and his spiritual sense could cover this place, he made a quick decision, hiding his breath and escaping through the earth. After the cultivator landed and released the spiritual pressure of the sixth level of Qi training, he slowly escaped back to Chongming Hall and walked out of the hall.

"Is there a body cultivator named Zhao Mingjing here?" asked the middle-aged scholar.

"This..." Zhao Chenglu and Xu Fang's eyes immediately fell on Jing Yu.

"I am Zhao Mingjing, and who are you?" Jing Yu raised his eyebrows. When did he become related to cultivators?

"My surname is Mu, and my given name is Shan."

Mu Shan's expression improved a bit when he saw Jing Yu's face, and he said, "It turned out to be my uncle in person!"

"Uncle?"

Jing Yu did some calculations in his head. This person called him uncle, so this person must be his nephew-in-law, so...

"Who is Zhao Chenghuan to you?"

"Cheng Huan is my wife."

Mu Shan smiled and nodded, saying, "Uncle, I have a message for my mother-in-law, 'Sixth brother, it has been twenty-six years since we last met. Are you doing well now?'"

"Third sister..." Jing Yu was shocked: "She really found the world of immortal cultivation!"

"My third sister, how is she now? Are you in good health?" Jing Yu asked hurriedly.

"Uncle, please wait a moment. I have some official business to attend to. Once I have finished my business, I will explain everything to you in detail!"

After Mu Shan finished speaking, he threw the hexagonal metal disc in his left hand into the sky above the palace, muttering to himself, "Heaven sees, earth hears, spiritual roots manifest..."

An invisible wave spread out from the hexagonal magic disk as the center, spreading throughout the entire Zhao capital at an extremely terrifying speed.

Jing Yu only felt this wave sweeping across his body, and suddenly a sea-blue spiritual light column rose above his head and shot straight into the sky!

In addition to the beam of light above Jing Yu's head, two more beams of light, one red and one blue, rose within the imperial city!

"Okay, okay, three spiritual roots! This trip is worth it!" Mu Shan seemed to be in a very happy mood and laughed.

Then he looked at Jing Yu who was standing in the beam of light above his head:

"Uncle, your luck has come! Now that my Xiaoyao League has opened its doors to the immortal world and is accepting fellow believers, why don't you return to the Immortal Square with me and share the path to immortality?"
