Chapter 117: [True Dragon Qi].
Edited by: Mochiusagi
The Imperial Tomb is the burial place of the Tang Empire’s Emperors. It is ancient, majestic and has experienced the vicissitudes of life ever since the founding of the Tang Empire.
“System, Sign In.”
Su Qin thought for a moment, and said silently in his heart.
It should have gathered some Dao Accumulation during its history.
[Congratulations!]
[Signed In successfully!]
[Obtained ‘True Dragon Qi’!]
The System rang in Su Qin’s ears.
“[True Dragon Qi]?”
Su Qin was taken aback for a moment.
Then information about [True Dragon Qi] surged into Su Qin’s mind.
“So, this is [True Dragon Qi]…”
Su Qin raised his right hand and saw strands of golden aura flowing between his fingers. These golden auras gathered and dispersed, then a faint dragon-shaped silhouette was revealed.
[True Dragon Qi] is a special kind of Internal Qi. It has the effect of stabilizing and improving vitality.
Even for an Arhat or Legend, [True Dragon Qi] is a rare treasure.
Perhaps in a short period of time, with using [True Dragon Qi] there wouldn’t be much of it and there wouldn’t be much improvement; but over the years as it accumulates, it will definitely produce a qualitative change and completely raise the Body of the user to a whole new level.
“Not bad.”
Su Qin was satisfied.
At his level, the effects of treasures were getting lower and lower. [True Dragon Qi] is one of the few treasures that can positively improve his combat strength.
For an Arhat or Legend, using [True Dragon Qi] and accumulating it for 400 to 500 years in their entire lifespan, would completely raise their Body to a new level.
But Su Qin is not just an ordinary Arhat.
His lifespan is twice that of other Arhats, hence he could accumulate for twice as long.
Su Qin has some expectations. If [True Dragon Qi] has accumulated for a 1000 years, what will happen to him?
…
Time continued to flow and in the blink of an eye, a year has passed.
In the past year, Su Qin has finally Signed In at the entirety of the Imperial Palace.
Similar to the Shaolin Temple, the overwhelming majority of the places in the Imperial Palace only have enough Dao Accumulation for one or two Sign Ins.
Nonetheless, Su Qin also found more than a dozen locations that can be Signed In repeatedly.
This had completely exceeded Su Qin’s expectations.
Even in the Shaolin Temple that has a history of thousands of years, only the Scripture Pavilion, Demon Subduing Tower and Bodhi Court have repeatable Sign Ins.
This made Su Qin very happy.
Maybe it’s because of the past ten Dynasties making the capital Chang’an City. Its time and history it experienced is longer than that of Shaolin Temple, making Su Qin’s Sign-Ins at the Imperial Palace generally a level higher than the Shaolin Temple.
For example, Innate Spirit Liquid, which can improve an Arhat’s strength is not something you can get from Signing In at the Shaolin Temple.
Of course, it’s not at all absolute and everything is better.
After all, the strongest Divine Art [Buddha’s Palm] that Su Qin received from Signing In at the Shaolin Temple has still not been dethroned of its number one spot, nor were there any other Divine Arts comparable to it.
“Well, I can start breaking through the 4th Heavenly Layer.”
Su Qin sat cross legged and thought silently.
“When I was still in the Shaolin Temple, I was already at Peak 3rd Heavenly Layer. Less than a year after I came to the Imperial Palace, I completed the fourth transformation of my Body.”
“Now after another year of adjustment, I am only half a step away from the 4th Heavenly Layer or even closer…”
Su Qin’s eyes lit up.
Su Qin is a very cautious person, otherwise he wouldn’t have stayed in the Shaolin Temple for nearly 30 years.
“I will break through tonight.”
Su Qin made a decision.
Next, Su Qin walked out of the Right Spring Square and casually strolled in the East Palace.
After the death of Emperor Tang a year ago, Crown Prince Li Sheng moved out of the East Palace. He inherited the throne and entered the Long Life Temple, which is the residence of the Emperors of the Tang Empire.
As for his younger sister Su Yueyun, she was also conferred as the Empress and moved to the Kunning Palace.
During this period, many Officials opposed it. After all, the Empresses conferred by the Emperors of the Tang Empire were generally women from a big family who could play a role in stabilizing the court, but Su Yueyun was only a daughter of a local Aristocratic Family.
They could not accept it, at most she can have the title of ‘Wife’.
However, the new Emperor Li Sheng insisted on canonizing Su Yueyun as the Empress, refusing to yield even by an inch. With this, even though the Officials were dissatisfied, they could only give in.
After all, Li Sheng is the Emperor and the master of the Tang Empire. At most, these courtiers can only give advice. So if the Emperor did not listen, there was nothing they could do.
In the past year, the new Emperor Li Sheng has basically adapted to his current life, and has made sufficient progress in handling government affairs.
When Su Qin would scan the entire Imperial Palace with Divine Sense, he would see that Li Sheng often handled state affairs until midnight. His lifestyle was also extremely simple.
Generally, a newly ascended Emperor will definitely be extravagant, but Li Sheng wasn’t like that. Everything he used was the one from Emperor Tang’s reign and there was almost no change.
Su Qin is quite satisfied with this.
If Li Sheng is good, the Tang Empire will not have that many troubles. He can just Sign In at the Imperial Palace and Cultivate with a peace of mind.
While Su Qin was thinking, he saw that Li Sheng with a few eunuchs were moving towards the East Palace.
“Huh?”
“Are they here to find me?”
Su Qin frowned.
Since Li Sheng and Su Yueyun moved out of the East Palace, the huge East Palace has been deserted, except for Su Qin, there were only some eunuchs and Court ladies.
The only reason why Li Sheng was coming here was probably Su Qin.
Soon, Li Sheng came to the outside of Right Spring Square.
“Your Majesty, will this old slave go in and declare your arrival?”
An eunuch next to him bowed and asked.
“No need.” Emperor Li Sheng shook his head. He took a few steps forward and moved towards the Right Spring Square. He waved his hand: “Third Brother.”
Su Qin, neither fast nor slow, came out and looked at Emperor Li Sheng.
“Okay, all of you can go, I will stay with Third Brother for a while.” Emperor Li Sheng glanced at the eunuchs.
“Yes.”
The eunuchs respectfully replied, then turned and left.
“Third Brother, this year I feel like I’ll be suffocated to death.” Emperor Li Sheng moved towards Su Qin and complained: “The old man from the Ministry of Etiquette stares at me all day, and there is also the Ministry of Household that keeps asking me for money. How can I have that much money…?”
When Su Qin heard this, he only laughed and did not speak.
Over the past year, Emperor Li Sheng will find Su Qin to chat for a while and vent out some of the troubles he has encountered.
The two chatted while slowly walking along the green trail next to them.
As the breeze was blowing, the expression of Emperor Li Sheng obviously got much better.
Although he is now the Emperor of the Tang Empire and he has the greatest authority in the world, he also has to bear the heaviest pressure.
