Chapter 26: The Longevity Pill

~6 min read 1,126 words

The Canglong Stone is the head of the Twelve Strange Treasures.

It forged the identity of Cang Jun, the number one powerhouse of Great Cang.

Of course, merely forging the identity of Great Cang's number one expert was not enough to let Cang Jun sleep soundly.

The most terrifying aspect of the Canglong Stone is its destiny.

It suppresses destiny.

As long as the Canglong Stone exists, Great Cang's national destiny will continue.

Natural disasters, man-made calamities, or even Cang Jun courting death—the national destiny remains with Cang.

This is also Cang Jun's source of confidence.

Floods overflowing?

Peasant uprisings?

What do these count for?

He is the true Child of Destiny.

"When I am interested, I might try being a virtuous monarch."

"That would be the fortune of the world's common people," the Master of Taiqing Palace said, his voice calm.

"How is Taiqing Mountain?" Cang Jun asked.

Only at this moment did he put away his previous insolence.

After all, though he was tyrannical, he was not stupid.

Opening the Taiqing River and moving Taiqing Mountain determines the prosperity and continuity of the national destiny.

It determines the eternal future of Great Cang.

"Once the Taiqing River is finished, we can transport Taiqing Mountain," the Master of Taiqing Palace said slowly.

"Hahaha," Cang Jun laughed, "The blood of one hundred thousand children is indeed useful!"

Cang Jun's plan is to move the mountain.

This undertaking has two difficulties.

The first difficulty is to refine Taiqing Mountain.

The second difficulty is to move Taiqing Mountain to Kyoto.

The first difficulty is refining Taiqing Mountain.

For mortals, this is fundamentally impossible.

Fortunately, with the Canglong Stone, this is not a problem.

According to the records of the Canglong Stone, it is refined with the blood of one hundred thousand children.

This matter was entrusted to the Master of Taiqing Palace to carry out.

Now, the refining is complete.

Now, only the completion of the Taiqing River is needed to transport Taiqing Mountain to Kyoto.

By then, the world's destiny will be unified, and Great Cang will never perish for ten thousand generations.

"Imperial Brother, those six major powers seem to have had some unusual movements recently," the Master of Taiqing Palace said slowly, "Should I go and take a look?"

Today, the world is dominated by Great Cang.

However, there were originally Twelve Strange Treasures, which created twelve powers.

Among these twelve powers, five have already submitted, while the others have not truly surrendered.

"A centipede dies but does not fall," Cang Jun laughed, "Wait until the mountain moving is successful, then we shall settle the accounts!"

As for the rebel armies, Cang Jun does not take them seriously.

These other eleven powers, however, possess Strange Treasures.

Although they cannot compare to the Canglong Stone, they are still a thorn in Cang Jun's side.

"By the way, Imperial Brother, are there any clues about the Longevity Pill?"

For Cang Jun, Great Cang's ten thousand generations must be his own ten thousand generations.

"Five hundred years ago, the Sun Emperor of Great Jing gathered the Qi Refiners of the world to refine the Longevity Pill.

Rumor has it that it ended in failure, and the Sun Emperor vomited blood and died.

The imperial family sent out the Jinyi to slaughter these Qi Refiners, but in the end, one Qi Refiner escaped.

It is said that the Qi Refiners did refine the Longevity Pill, but they hid it away.

In the end, that Qi Refiner fell off a cliff, and the Longevity Pill on his person disappeared.

Near the cliff, there was a nunnery named Qingling An, which was destroyed because of this.

But thirty years later, someone saw a woman at Qingling An who looked very much like one of the people from the former nunnery."

"In other words, this nun has the Longevity Pill?" Cang Jun was delighted.

"Yes. I heard a wealthy man liked that nun from Qingling An and eventually had a painter make a portrait, which is why that nun was recognized," the Master of Taiqing Palace said, holding a box in his hands.

At this moment, the box was opened.

A scroll was revealed before Cang Jun.

In the scroll, there was a woman.

The woman was no longer young, looking to be in her thirties or forties.

However, this only added a few more traces of charm.

"The Longevity Pill," Cang Jun looked at the portrait with greed.

"I must obtain this woman!"

"As you command," the Master of Taiqing Palace said, "Currently, our Taiqing Palace disciples are already searching the world."

Anyone with a similar appearance or supernatural traits will be brought here.

However, we currently seem to have discovered someone very similar to this nun.

She is now hiding in Beiling."

"Beiling of the Dan Sword Sect?" Cang Jun hesitated for a moment.

In normal times, he would certainly go himself or send his imperial brother.

But now, the Mountain-Moving Plan has reached its most critical stage, and he simply cannot leave.

Otherwise, if either he or his imperial brother were to die, a major problem would arise.

"Let the people from Beihan Hall go," Cang Jun said.

Beihan Hall is one of the twelve great powers.

This power is one that belongs entirely to Cang Jun.

"Very well," the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace said, turning to leave.

Cang Jun looked at the deep, dark Palace and revealed a smile: "The Heavenly Dao is on my side; now, I am even about to obtain the Longevity Pill, haha."

At this moment, the voice of Lijia came.

"Cang Jun, Liu Zhengwen's daughter, Liu Yinli, has been brought here."

A smile appeared on Cang Jun's face.

He had long heard that Liu Zhengwen's daughter acted recklessly and was despised by the world.

That was why Liu Zhengwen had married her off early.

However, Cang Jun did not care; he liked such women.

They had more flavor.

The rain of March fell on Beiling; Lin Chao walked on the main street with a complex look in his eyes.

The drizzle was continuous, having almost no effect on people.

However, at this time in Beiling, there were still not many figures on the street.

"Young Master, you must be careful; the Young Hall Master of Beihan Hall is cruel and ruthless.

He is even Cang Jun's number one loyal dog."

"A Fu, I am aware," Lin Chao said, not caring in the slightest.

He was going to attend a banquet.

The Young Hall Master of Beihan Hall had invited him to the brothel to listen to music and drink flower wine.

Thanks to 【Mishi Jiqi】 and 【Xihuan HY Que Dedao Ta De Xihuan】 for the tips, thank you!
