~9 min read 1,668 words

"Not bad, the mid-grade Innate Spiritual Root Enlightenment Tea Tree."

Yin Qi said with a smile: "Last year, on a whim, I went to Mount Wuyi. By chance, I discovered an Innate Great Array, and then I found this Innate Spiritual Root inside. The tea leaves have the effect of opening wisdom and enlightening the Dao.

This box of tea leaves has one hundred pieces. I plucked one hundred boxes, and I am giving you fifty boxes.

You have been stuck at the peak of the Mysterious Immortal Realm for a long time. With the help of these Enlightenment Tea leaves, perhaps you can achieve the Golden Immortal Realm."

Golden Immortal: integrating the laws into the Primordial Spirit.

The laws do not perish, the Primordial Spirit does not die, thus it is indestructible through a thousand tribulations and immortal through the ages.

Even in the Witch-Demon Era, or the Dragon-Phoenix-Qilin Era, Golden Immortals belonged to the ranks of the strong.

Princess Longji was both surprised and happy.

Surprised that Yin Qi actually had such great fortune to be able to obtain an Innate Spiritual Root in this era.

Happy that Yin Qi did not hold back from her and was also thinking of her.

For such tea leaves to be given to her in fifty boxes—that is, five thousand pieces—the value to her was simply immeasurable.

"Yin-lang, you are truly good to me!"

"Silly girl, if I'm not good to you, who would I be good to?"

"Yin-lang, kiss me!"

"Wuwu!"

Princess Longji was moved; it seemed that without doing this, it would not be enough to express the emotion in her heart.

Yin Qi naturally did not stand on ceremony and lowered his head to kiss her.

When feelings reached their peak, things happened naturally.

From under the bed to on the bed, the two entangled until death, swimming in the clouds, floating as if they were feathering and ascending.

With Princess Longji, Yin Qi did not need to hide. He performed the dual cultivation method from the *Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon*, pure yang and pure yin intersecting, turning into a pure and majestic life aura that constantly circulated within each other's bodies.

Princess Longji, at the peak of the Mysterious Immortal Realm, had an incomparably thick pure yin aura.

With the help of this pure and majestic life aura, Yin Qi pushed his martial cultivation to the peak of the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm and completely consolidated his realm; he only needed an opportunity to break through.

At the same time, he tempered the acupoint deities in his body's acupoints once more, making every one of them possess Heavenly Realm combat power.

By dual cultivating with Princess Longji, Yin Qi received immense benefits.

At the same time, Princess Longji also benefited greatly. In her excitement, she suddenly screamed: "Yin-lang, I feel the bottleneck loosening."

"Is that so? That's great, let's continue!"

Yin Qi was also overjoyed.

If Princess Longji could become a Golden Immortal, then he would have one more trump card in his hand.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

Yin Qi and Princess Longji were evenly matched, entangled every day, and had not stepped half a step out of the bedchamber.

This day, Yin Qi was being affectionate with Princess Longji when suddenly his identity plate vibrated. He received a message from his clone: Di Yi is seriously ill and in a coma, return quickly!

Yin Qi's face sank, and he stood up abruptly.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing her lover in such a state, Princess Longji asked hurriedly.

Yin Qi said in a deep voice: "The clone sent a message; Father Emperor is seriously ill and in a coma. I must return to Zhaoge."

Although the clone was equivalent to himself, in reality, whether it was combat power or the ability to handle matters, it was not as good as the original body. Naturally, he had to rush back to take charge now.

"The Human Emperor is seriously ill!"

Princess Longji was shocked. She also realized the seriousness of the problem and said hurriedly: "Yin-lang, then you should go back quickly. My bottleneck has also loosened; I happen to need to go into seclusion to cultivate."

"That is also good."

Yin Qi nodded. He did not say much more and left in a hurry.

Originally, he had planned to stay for a few more days and then go to Meishan to find Yuan Hong, but now it seemed that was not possible.

Zhaoge.

Qi Wang Mansion.

The news of Di Yi being seriously ill and in a coma had just come from the Imperial Palace when the clone sent the message to the original body.

Yin Qi left Qingluan Douque, put on the Human Emperor Armor, and directly tore through the void to rush to the Qi Wang Mansion. At this time, the carriage to the Imperial Palace had not even been prepared yet.

The clone turned into a drop of blood and returned to the original body. Yin Qi also obtained the clone's memories from this period.

The main memory was still promoting various inventions.

Imperial Palace.

Renshou Palace, Di Yi's bedchamber.

Yin Qi arrived almost at the same time as Yin Shou and Yin Yan. At this time, there were already many officials waiting outside the bedchamber.

The attendants did not stop them, and the three Yin brothers strode in.

Beside the spacious and luxurious imperial bed stood Wen Zhong, Shang Rong, and Bi Gan, along with many imperial concubines who were secretly weeping and constantly wiping their tears with handkerchiefs.

They were not sad for Di Yi, but for themselves.

Because according to Great Shang regulations, when the Human Emperor passes away and is sent to the Imperial Mausoleum, many concubines are required to be buried with him.

The specific number and candidates are usually determined by the Human Emperor in advance.

"Grand Tutor, what is going on? Father Emperor was perfectly fine, how could he suddenly fall into a coma?"

"Also, how is Father Emperor's condition now?"

Yin Qi stepped forward and asked directly.

Wen Zhong was a powerhouse of the Mysterious Immortal Realm; he must know Di Yi's condition.

Yin Yan and Yin Shou also looked at Wen Zhong one after another.

Wen Zhong sighed: "The Great King is already nearing the end of his life. Although I used immortal power to stabilize the Great King's heart pulse and he should be able to wake up before long, but what follows, I am afraid..."

Although he did not continue, the meaning was already very clear.

Di Yi did not have much time left.

Yin Qi's heart sank, and he asked in confusion: "Grand Tutor, why is it difficult for the Human Emperor to live a long life, even worse than ordinary people?"

As the Human Emperor, Di Yi could be said to be well-clothed and well-fed.

Not to mention the immortal peaches and thunder water he had offered before, just with the foundation of the Great Shang Celestial Dynasty, would there be a lack of immortal pills and miraculous medicines?

With this fortune, ordinary people would have already become immortals.

But the Human Emperor's lifespan was not even as long as an ordinary person's; how strange is this?

Wen Zhong looked at Yin Qi, then looked at Yin Shou and Yin Yan, and only then said slowly: "Now that things have come to this, it is no harm to tell you. As the saying goes, to wear the crown, one must bear its weight.

The Human Emperor is the foundation of the human race's fortune.

While enjoying endless glory, one must also bear the burden of the human race's fortune and the nation's fortune.

If the Human Emperor is a powerhouse of the immortal path, he can barely bear it.

But the Human Emperors of past generations, because they could not cultivate, how could they bear the human race's fortune and the nation's fortune?

Under the erosion of the human race's fortune and the nation's fortune, even if the Human Emperor is nourished daily, it will lead to an accelerated flow of life energy, and in the end, the lifespan is not even as long as an ordinary person's."

Without illness or disaster, it is no problem for an ordinary person to live to be a hundred.

But the Human Emperor can often only live to be fifty or sixty.

Yin Qi was shocked, his eyes narrowing.

Yin Shou was the same, but the determination in his eyes did not waver.

Only Yin Yan was actually a bit gloating.

Although he could not cultivate immortality, because he was a martial artist of the Earth Realm, living to be two or three hundred was very easy.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Just at this moment, Di Yi coughed a few times and slowly opened his eyes.

"Great King!"

"Great King!"

Everyone called out with joy.

Di Yi opened his eyes, his cloudy eyes lacking their usual sharpness.

He turned his head to look at everyone, and after a long time, he said weakly: "My time is running out, the position of Crown Prince should also be decided."

Everyone felt a chill in their bodies.

Di Yi seemed not to see it and continued: "Three days from now, Yin Qi and Yin Shou will enter the palace, and I will propose the third assessment. This assessment is of utmost importance; whoever wins will be the Crown Prince."

Yin Qi was a bit confused.

What does Di Yi want to do?

Wen Zhong and the others were also confused; this did not conform to the rules.

Wasn't it best of three? How did it become one round to decide the outcome?

However, thinking of Di Yi's state, he did not have many days left and could not continue the assessment.

Yin Shou, upon hearing this, was overjoyed.

One round to decide the outcome—he had a greater possibility of a comeback. ===== CHAPTER 339 =====
