Gou Zai's journey to the heavens in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 44 Grandmaster of Great Liang
Walking to the palace of Da Liang again, Chen Ming saw the coffin and body of the old emperor.

The old emperor had been dead for some time. Perhaps to ensure stability, he had kept his funeral secret for the past few days and did not spread the news.

In this place, Chen Ming couldn't help but feel a little sad when he looked at the old emperor's body.

The last time he saw the old emperor was several years ago.

At that time, the old emperor was still the emperor, and even Chen Ming could only rank below him. His attitude was respectful and he did not dare to go beyond him.

However, only a few years later, the emperor had passed away. Now his body was lying in the coffin, no different from an ordinary corpse.

There were already corpse spots on it, and it looked like there were signs of decay.

"Even if you are the emperor, you will eventually die one day."

Looking at the corpse of the old emperor, Chen Ming sighed: "Only by cultivating immortals can we live forever and exist forever."

Unknowingly, Chen Ming became more determined in his practice.

The power of mortals always comes to an end, and one day it will eventually pass away. Only by practicing continuous transformation can people be immortal and live a long life.

Behind him, there was a sound of slight footsteps.

Chen Ming turned around and looked, but it was an old man.

The old man was wearing a gray gown, his appearance was a little primitive, his face was old, his eyes were a little cloudy, and he looked like he was old.

Chen Ming looked at the old man, but he was not surprised. He just smiled and said, "When did the senior come out of seclusion?"

"Just a few days ago."

Looking at Chen Ming in front of him, the old man sighed: "What you did is so big that even the old man I can't sit still anymore, so I can only come out and take a look."

"How do you feel after you come out and see it?"

Chen Ming continued to ask.

"What a surprise."

The old man sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that a famous doctor who is the best in the world is also the most talented martial artist in Great Liang."

"I have to admit, old man, I was wrong back then."

The old man in front of him is none other than the ancestor of the Royal Family of Da Liang and the only grandmaster in Da Liang, Zhao Yun.

As the only grandmaster in Great Liang, Zhao Yun had met Chen Ming a long time ago.

The reason is not complicated at all, it is just to seek elixir.

Over the years, Chen Ming's reputation has grown bigger and bigger, and he has refined more and more kinds of elixirs.

As the ancestor of Daliang, Zhao Yun also visited Chen Ming several times, hoping that Chen Ming could refine elixirs for him, restore his body, and extend his life.

As for the final effect, I am naturally satisfied.

Zhao Yun is able to maintain his current physical condition thanks to the various elixirs provided by Chen Ming.

But even so, Zhao Yun never thought that one day, Chen Ming would actually walk in front of him again with this appearance.

He was obviously just an alchemy master, but he suddenly showed the strength of a master.

Moreover, he is still so young.

Standing there, Zhao Yun looked up and down at Chen Ming in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh silently.

He is already very old, now over one hundred and twenty years old.

At this age, even for a grandmaster, he is already in his twilight years. It can be said that he does not have many years left to live.

However, the Chen Ming in front of him was so young.

He is about forty years old, but his face looks like he is in his early twenties. He looks particularly young and handsome, full of vitality and vitality, which is in sharp contrast to the Zhao Yun in front of him.

Considering the Grandmaster's lifespan of more than a hundred years, Chen Ming still has nearly a hundred years left to live, which can be said to be in his prime.

In comparison, how can we not make people feel envious?

"Senior came out specifically to see me. I think it was more than just a few words of emotion."

Chen Ming looked at Zhao Yun, smiled, and said, "But are you a little worried?"

"There are some."

Zhao Yun nodded, but then sighed: "You are too young. Not to mention me, even the newly ascended emperor will probably not be able to survive you. One day, if you want the throne, who can?" I can stop you."

"It's normal for me to be worried."

Zhao Yun seemed very calm about his worries.

"What about now?" Chen Ming continued to ask.

"I'm not afraid anymore." Zhao Yun shook his head: "I can see that you don't have these thoughts."

"You can see this?" Chen Ming was a little surprised.

"Old man, although I am old, I still have basic eyesight."

Zhao Yun smiled, looked at Chen Ming in front of him, and then said firmly: "Palace of Medicine King?"

Chen Ming didn't deny it, just nodded.

Zhao Yun immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the Medicine King Palace is in a state of decline and has been repeatedly hunted by Qiuchen Valley, its reputation is still good, at least much better than that of the Xuanyin Sect and the like.

Of course, the most important thing is that Yaowang Palace was suppressed by Qiuchen Valley and fell to this point, and Great Liang happened to be Qiuchen Valley's enemy.

According to the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, Da Liang obviously has ample room for cooperation with Yaowangdian.

"I usually stay in seclusion and don't care about foreign affairs."

Zhao Yun said: "You can be conscious of the matters in Da Liang. Whether you want to rebuild the Medicine King Palace or do other things, it's up to you."

The subtext of this statement is that as long as Chen Ming does not do anything to threaten the Zhao family, Great Liang will support whatever Chen Ming wants to do.

"it is good."

Chen Ming naturally understood what Zhao Yun meant and nodded directly in agreement.

He had no special thoughts about Great Liang.

The reason why Zhao Yue was supported in ascending to the throne was also due to various considerations.

On the one hand, it is the friendship with Zhao Wu and the relationship with Zhao Yue, and on the other hand, it is to better use the power of Great Liang to search for spiritual objects.

In addition, Chen Ming promised Zi Qiong that he would revive the Medicine King Palace in the future.

He didn't intend to break his promise, but he was too lazy to do it himself.

Now it would be convenient and quick to support Zhao Yue to come to power and use the power of Great Liang to do this.

As for the world of Great Liang itself, he really has no interest at all.

After determining the basic principles and reaching a consensus, the atmosphere in the place suddenly became much more relaxed.

This time Zhao Yun left the customs and had no intention of going back in a short time, so he simply stayed in the palace.

He and Chen Ming sat down to talk and began to exchange their experiences.

"As you move up to the master realm, are there no other realms?"

After getting the answer from Zhao Yun, Chen Ming was a little disappointed.

According to Zhao Yun, the path of martial arts has reached a limit after reaching the realm of a master.

After the power of qi and blood is combined with the soul, and after the qualitative change is completed, there is no way forward.

No matter how tyrannical he is, he still belongs to the category of a master.

"For hundreds of thousands of years, there are people who want to find a way forward, but this is not easy."

Zhao Yun sighed: "It is difficult for my generation of martial artists to practice. Even if they are martial arts geniuses, they are often close to sixty years old when they reach the level of master. They are already very old. How much energy can they have to explore and move forward? Where is the Tao."

Although the Grandmaster has a lifespan of more than a hundred years, his body declines much faster than that.

Ordinary people are often promoted to masters around the age of sixty or seventy. Even if their bodies are not in decline, they often start to decline.

Once the body is weak and the energy and blood decline, it is destined to have no room to move forward and can only wait to die.

Chen Ming listened quietly, feeling the helplessness in Zhao Yun's mouth, and actually understood the reason in his heart.

In the final analysis, the concentration of spiritual energy in this world is too low.

The concentration of spiritual energy is too low, spiritual objects are scarce, natural practice is difficult, and there is no way to make up for it.

If it were in the world of cultivation, it would be much easier for a warrior to practice, and his lifespan might even be extended a lot.

This is the result of different environments.

And precisely because the environment of this world is much worse than that of the main world, the upper limit has also been lowered.

"You want to rebuild the Medicine King Palace, I don't object to that, but what are your preparations for Qiuchen Valley?"

Looking at Chen Ming, Zhao Yun asked curiously.

As the only grandmaster in Great Liang, he was very clear about the grudges between Yaowang Palace and Qiuchen Valley, so he also wanted to know Chen Ming's next choice.
