Chapter 130: May I ask, Sir, is there immortality?
"Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon?"
Ying Zheng nodded. "I have heard a little. It is rumored that obtaining this object can win the world, but I do not believe this rhetoric. If winning the world depends on such ethereal things, what is the need for soldiers to fight bravely?"
"One only needs to spend all their energy on finding such ethereal things as the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon to easily win the world!"
Even though the rumors of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon had been circulating in the world for a long time, some people believed it deeply, just like Tian Ze and others, who once regarded the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon as hope for a comeback and once searched for the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon.
But for this kind of thing, Ying Zheng had always had one attitude from beginning to end.
Do not believe!
Even without the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, he firmly believed that he could win the world.
And the current strength of the Qin State had never relied on the so-called Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon. It relied on reform to become strong, on successive kings working hard to govern, and on many soldiers fighting bravely to win large tracts of land and cities for the Qin State.
The civil and military officials, each performing their duties, had brought about the Qin State of today.
Ying Zheng asked Su Xuan again, "Is the purpose of the Yin-Yang School the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon?"
Su Xuan nodded and said, "This object has been circulating in the world for a long time. Although there are those like the Qin King who do not believe the rumors, the world is vast, and there are always some people who, because of dissatisfaction with reality, pin their hopes on that ethereal object and attempt to search for it. However, more often than not, it is like fishing for the moon in a well or looking at flowers in the fog; they spend their whole lives and still find it difficult to find its whereabouts, let alone collect them all."
"The Yin-Yang School also realized this, knowing that relying on their own strength alone, it is difficult to collect the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, so they are prepared to use external force to achieve this. Under heaven, if one says who is most likely to collect the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, then it must be the Qin State!"
Ying Zheng intended to unify the world, and the Qin State indeed had the strength to unify the world.
As long as the world is unified, then it is not a difficult thing for the Qin State to collect the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon scattered in various places in the world.
"The Yin-Yang School thinks quite well. Are they so certain that I will help them collect the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon?"
Although Su Xuan became the new Sect Master of the Yin-Yang School and commanded the entire Yin-Yang School, Ying Zheng still did not mind evaluating the Yin-Yang School of the past.
"Perhaps they also thought of this, so naturally they have corresponding rhetoric to move the Qin King." Su Xuan said lightly.
"What rhetoric?" Ying Zheng was a little curious.
Actually, knowing the purpose of the Yin-Yang School or not did not mean much to him, but he had not seen Su Xuan for too long, and coupled with the busy government affairs during this time, Ying Zheng did not mind chatting with Su Xuan to relax a little.
"Elixir of immortality!"
Su Xuan spat out five words, and Ying Zheng’s eyes narrowed.
At this time, he was young and strong, and had no thoughts about the theory of immortality, but he thought that if one day he unified the world, he might really be moved by this rhetoric.
Now that he had personally taken power, this feeling made him quite nostalgic, let alone after unifying the world. At that time, there would be only one king under heaven, and that would be him; his power would reach its peak.
He would have everything in the mundane world.
If it were then, perhaps he would really try to pursue immortality.
Thinking about future things, Ying Zheng asked Su Xuan, "Mr. Su, is there really an elixir of immortality in this world?"
To be precise, is there really immortality in this world?
In Ying Zheng’s view, Su Xuan’s methods were brilliant, and he was a true person who had attained the Dao. Whether there is immortality in the world, he should know better than anyone.
Su Xuan was silent for a while and said, "I cannot answer the Qin King on this question for the time being."
"Is that so!"
Ying Zheng’s expression was calm, and no disappointment could be seen.
Su Xuan said again, "However, I believe that it won't be long before I might be able to answer the Qin King on this question."
Ying Zheng looked at Su Xuan in surprise, not expecting Su Xuan to say such words.
Su Xuan did not explain too much.
Seventy-two Earthly Fiend Dao arts, thirty-six Heavenly Dipper Dao methods, among which, not to mention the great supernatural powers of the thirty-six Heavenly Dipper methods, if the Earthly Fiend arts are cultivated to the extreme, it is enough to get a glimpse of the path of immortality.
It is a pity that the current Su Xuan has not cultivated to that realm. Because he has not reached it, he cannot answer this question for Ying Zheng.
Without overly delving into the matter of immortality, as the saying goes, the current Ying Zheng is young and strong, and does not need such things for the time being.
"If not for Mr. Su telling me, I really would not know that the Yin-Yang School had such ambition."
Looking at the world, although the Yin-Yang School’s name is also very big, it is ultimately not as good as Daoism, Confucianism, Mohism, and other schools. The only thing worth mentioning is its mystery.
But if according to Su Xuan, they first actively helped when he was in trouble to gain his favor, and then, when his power reached its peak, used the elixir of immortality as rhetoric, he would obviously be moved, and would use the power of the Qin State to fully help the Yin-Yang School collect the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon.
The Yin-Yang School works for him on the surface, but in secret, it uses this to achieve its own ambition and complete its own purpose.
However, that was also in the past.
Although Ying Zheng had some thoughts about the Yin-Yang School because of Su Xuan’s words, he did not forget the sentence Su Xuan said earlier: the Yin-Yang School had already been mastered by Su Xuan.
Originally, Ying Zheng was not prepared to ask this question, but now, he asked it anyway, "How exactly did Mr. Su take the Yin-Yang School for his own use?"
Su Xuan said calmly, "The Yin-Yang School respects the strong. It is not difficult to subdue the Yin-Yang School. I defeated their Sect Master, and naturally I became their new Sect Master!"
"Is it actually like this?!"
Ying Zheng did not expect the Yin-Yang School to have such a tradition.
He said again, "However, even if you became the Sect Master of the Yin-Yang School, it would probably not be an easy thing to make those Yin-Yang School people obey your orders."
"This matter will come slowly. Commanding a Yin-Yang School is always much simpler than the Qin King commanding the Qin State."
Ying Zheng nodded. This sentence was indeed correct.
After the chat was over, Ying Zheng then talked about the serious business this time.
"When in Xinzheng, you once discussed the situation of the world in front of me. Today, I invited you here, just to discuss the world again!"
At that time in Xinzheng, he had not officially taken power. Although he had ambition, it was difficult to realize.
Now, he has officially taken power and holds great power, so he can start to realize the ambition in his heart.
