Living forever in the deep palace

It was the end of October in the twenty-third year of Tianwu.

Daliang Palace.

"No! Boss, please don't fire me. I haven't paid off my mortgage yet..."

A young man who was sleeping on his back with an ancient book covering his face suddenly shuddered and woke up from a nightmare.

The ancient book slipped off, revealing his handsome face.

He was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with long black hair falling on his shoulders, eyes like stars, skin as white as jade, and dressed in black eunuch clothes. Although there was no embellishment at all and he was only at the bottom of the eunuch system, he had a straight spine and still had a certain temperament that should not be underestimated.

Su Chen was silent for a while, looking at the huge library in front of him, which covered an area of ​​thousands of square meters on the first floor alone, and did not speak for a long time.

Zhang Gui from the Martial Arts Bureau is at the peak of the double fifth rank and a leading figure among the young eunuchs. He is also one of Su Chen’s few, or even his only, friend.

Zhang Gui stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes like deep pools, not hiding his ambition to climb up the ladder at all.

Once you reach the fourth rank, you will be a candidate for the position of Grand Supervisor of the Shangwu Bureau, which means your power and status are much higher than those of an ordinary Grand Supervisor.

"You mentioned before that there's a secret medicine called perfume that can give the human body a subtle fragrance, making flowers bloom and surround it with petals, like fairies from the heavenly palace descending to earth..."

In order to avoid being discovered as a fake eunuch, he made mistakes on purpose and was banished to a cold palace for eunuchs, a library where even rats wouldn't come.

Su Chen drank old wine, ate roast chicken, and spoke incoherently.

He was able to enter the library thanks to Zhang Gui's help. Otherwise, how could he, a low-level eunuch, enter the library even if he made mistakes on purpose?

"Three months, and I really don't feel any energy at all."

The goal of immortality is too ambitious. Now he just wants to stay in the library and wait for the seed of immortality to change, grow roots and bear fruit.

"It's the end of October."

But these have nothing to do with Su Chen.

Three years later, he had become a master at the peak of the fifth level in both the physical and qi realms.

He was a time traveler. Three months ago, he opened his eyes and saw an old eunuch with a knife in his hand and a grin walking towards him.

On the first day of the journey, it appeared in his consciousness, making him clearly aware of the miraculous effect of this seed.

"Who told me that with this 'Barbarian Bull Qi', even a fool could cultivate the first strand of Qi through meditation?"

As time goes by, it will take root, sprout, grow branches and leaves, and bear fruit in Su Chen's consciousness.

"When will it take root and bear fruit?"

This day was the end of the third month since he traveled through time.

Immortality is his path, and he also knows how to practice the cultivation method of protecting immortality. Unfortunately, his talent for cultivation is too weak.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Gui sat next to Su Chen, drinking bowl after bowl of Bairu wine, and recounting the important events that had occurred in the harem recently.

But he was lucky, as he happened to encounter turmoil in the imperial city and assassins broke into the palace. Taking advantage of the chaos, he escaped castration and preserved his dignity as a man.

However, secretly, there are still many powerful cultivation forces, either secret sects or hidden sects, who want to change the dynasty. The original owner was just a hidden pawn planted in the palace.

Of course, immortality is just immortality. It does not mean that one is immortal and will die if killed.

now.

"Alas, I haven't even started yet."

The people in the palace were in a panic. The purple-robed eunuchs had all been removed from their posts. It was likely that the red-robed chief stewards and the blue-robed eunuchs in charge would be affected sooner or later.

Every growth will bring endless fortune to Su Chen.

Since then, the two have become good friends.

The moment the Seed of Immortality descended upon him, he had already become a special being who had broken free from the shackles of lifespan and achieved immortality.

"Tomorrow is November, the beginning of autumn."

It was difficult for him to even enter the fifth rank.

"You, it seems you really don't have any talent at all, and have no affinity with martial arts. But that's okay. When I, Zhang Gui, become successful, you will still be able to walk around freely in this harem. By then, I will be the first eunuch in purple robes, and you will be the second eunuch in red robes."

That day, there was turmoil in the palace and an assassin was trying to kill the emperor. Near the imperial study, he found Zhang Gui, who was seriously injured and dying, and carried him out from the pile of dead bodies.

Su Chen immediately ran to meet him. In this nine-story library, far away from the imperial palace, it was quiet, but eating white rice and steamed buns every day without any meat was unbearable even for a god.

"I still prefer this Bairu wine, it's quite tasty."

The emperor was unkind and extravagant, plagued by natural and man-made disasters, demons and demons roamed the world, and countless people rose up in rebellion. But this world had cultivators, whose power could suppress any group. The royal family's three hundred years of accumulated cultivation foundation allowed the dynasty to barely hold on.

Su Chen drank some tea, cursed, and calmed down.

soon.

The spirit of longevity.

The seed of immortality sprouted, and its cracked shell nourished Su Chen's body, generating wisps of energy.

The old emperor was seriously injured in the assassination and was on the verge of death for three months. He was about to die. A Taoist priest came to the palace and gave him a thousand-year-old precious medicine. Today, he finally recovered.

Zhang Gui's talent is much better than his. He entered the palace three years ago and was extremely talented. He was immediately adopted as a godson by a top fourth-rank official in the Martial Arts Bureau.

This dynasty is called Daliang. It has been established for more than 300 years and is now in its final years.

Zhang Gui's smile widened as he presented the paper and pen. He didn't look like the proud leader of the Martial Arts Bureau at all, but rather a complete lackey.

The seed of immortality in his consciousness made a crisp sound, and tiny roots extended out. It took root and sprouted, and took the shape of rhizomes.

He was terrified.

The emperor recovered.

Su Chen doesn't need to do anything. He just needs to wait quietly for the seed of immortality to take root, sprout, bloom and bear fruit.

This is a seed.

"Take a tea bowl, place gauze on it, and soak the petals in water for at least twelve hours, then..."

A slender hand picked up the "Barbarian Bull Qi".

"Xiao Suzi, the soap you gave me is really useful. It immediately caught the eye of Concubine Zhang and helped me do two errands for her..."

"My strength is almost reaching the double fourth rank. By then, I will probably be able to get a blue robe manager level. By then, I will have a godson. Even if I am not around, you will still have someone to send you Bairu wine and roast chicken every day."

"You came?"

After three months of practice, Su Chen felt humiliated and angrily threw the "Barbarian Bull Qi" in his hand away.

Su Chen walked to the window of the library and watched Zhang Gui leave. Looking at the yellow fallen leaves on the ground and the cool wind, he closed his eyes and visualized the seed of immortality.

Zhang Gui left with satisfaction.

"Concubine Zhang is the old emperor's favorite concubine. You know what I mean, right?"

Also at this time.

Looking at the ambition in Zhang Gui's eyes, Su Chen felt that he wanted to stand out too much and would fall flat on his face sooner or later.

"Let me see, which newbie is taking out his anger on a book? This is already one of the best techniques in the Inner Palace Martial Arts Bureau."

"Got it!"

As he spoke, Zhang Gui's breathing became heavy, and he spoke a little embarrassedly.

Peasant uprisings were repeatedly suppressed, but they rose again after being destroyed; the aristocratic families still feared the power of heaven and did not dare to act rashly, and were reluctant to start the final chapter of chaos in the world.

After saying that, Zhang Gui came over eagerly and couldn't help but say.

"What the hell..."

There was also a prince who was deposed.

The first grade is the highest, the fifth grade is the lowest, and the grandmaster only exists in legends.

A tall, handsome, young eunuch in a green robe with deep eyes walked in, looking at Su Chen with a smile, holding a roast chicken and old wine in his other hand.

Therefore, after obtaining the seed of immortality, Su Chen decided to live in seclusion, be kind to others, and reduce the possibility of fatal disaster.

The first thing he did was to kill people in the temple. Countless civil and military officials were beheaded, and entire families were executed.

Su Chen closed his eyes and his vision went dark, but in the darkness, there was a little light, like the light of a firefly, and also like the bright sun.

Then upwards.

"A very friendly person."

There are two kinds of worldly practice.

"In my last life, I worked so much overtime that I died suddenly and traveled back in time. This bastard leader actually dared to haunt me in my dreams. If I could travel back in time, I'd knock his teeth out."

Even the first purple-robed eunuch who was in charge of the inner palace defense was dismissed and replaced by another unfamiliar old eunuch with a background in the previous emperor's dynasty from the Tianwu Tower.

"You! If you don't make a name for yourself, it's like your life is coming to an end. Can't you be as carefree as me?" Su Chen felt that Bai Ru's wine was no longer fragrant, so he wiped his hands and motioned for pen and ink to serve him.

One is to cultivate the body, the other is to gather qi, that is, to practice external skills and internal skills, which are roughly one to five grades, the two major master levels of acquired and innate.

Click.

This is a seed of immortality.

In this second life, he only lives for himself. Everyone will die one day, but he only wants to live forever.

His Qi path has reached the fifth level.
