Cultivating Immortality Begins with Rejuvenation

That day, the Immortal Palace was in an uproar.

The moment Li Ji'an, holding the Grandmaster Ranking's top spot token, stepped into the Immortal Palace, all the experts guarding the palace were alarmed.

They appeared one after another to see.

"What kind of prodigy could be favored by Old Li?"

"The kid Old Li favors is naturally extraordinary!"

"Could he be born with the Dragon-Tiger countenance?"

...

Calmly looking at the group of familiar old faces, Li Ji'an revealed a hint of innocence.

"Just so-so..."

Finally, the expected voice of dissatisfaction arrived, though late.

Everyone looked up and saw that familiar figure on the top of the tower.

Lei Jingchuan!

The fifth master of the Lei family in Yan Province, and also the current Empress's own father.

Originally ranked ninth on the Grandmaster Ranking, he rose to the top because the imperial guards in the Nine Dragons Seizing the Throne either died or were severely injured, their strength declining.

However, just as he came to the imperial city as the Grandmaster Ranking's top to save his daughter and son-in-law, Li Ji'an appeared out of nowhere, snatching the top spot he hadn't even warmed up yet.

He challenged Li Ji'an three times in a row, all resulting in defeat, vowing to win fairly once in this life and reclaim the top spot, so he stayed in the Immortal Palace.

He had a rough personality, cold on the outside but warm on the inside, only stubborn.

However, after being trained by Li Ji'an for a year, he improved slightly, at least not daring to be stubborn in front of Li Ji'an, because Li Ji'an would hit him without hesitation, regardless of the occasion, not giving him any face.

"Old Lei, be careful, Old Li is cautious by nature, he might be secretly protecting this little guy?" Someone whispered a reminder.

Lei Jingchuan snorted coldly: "Hmph, this old man is just telling the truth, does he think he can attack me because of this?"

"嗖~", On the surface he said it easily, but the next moment he flew away without hesitation.

The words behind were only said while walking: "Not only will this old man win him fairly, but this old man's disciple will also defeat his disciple, you just watch."

Li Ji'an couldn't help but smile.

Among Zhao Yunsheng's children, the ninth princess Zhao Shuyao had the best talent, naturally intelligent, and excellent in aptitude.

Last year, at the age of seven, Zhao Yunsheng originally wanted Zhao Shuyao to apprentice to Li Ji'an, but Lei Jingchuan relied on his status as her maternal grandfather and forcibly took her as his disciple.

"This old guy..."

As soon as Lei Jingchuan left, Emperor Zhao Yunsheng also arrived at the Immortal Palace.

Everyone saluted: "Long live Your Majesty!"

"I am well, rise!" Zhao Yunsheng immediately saw Li Ji'an in the crowd.

However, the first glance made him slightly stunned.

The others here basically hadn't seen Li Ji'an's appearance when he was young, so they didn't feel anything.

But when he came to the Immortal Palace as a hostage at the age of seven, Li Ji'an was nineteen years old, and after nine years of living together day and night, his memories of Li Ji'an at that time were still fresh.

The child in front of him clearly had some resemblance to Li Ji'an at that time between his brows.

"What's your name?" Zhao Yunsheng came back to his senses, slightly excited.

Li Ji'an was sixty years old and had not married or had children. At that time, he even wanted to bestow a marriage. Now he had a group of wives and concubines, and his children were happy around his knees. Sometimes he would worry about Li Ji'an.

What if he was so good at martial arts? What if he was the best in the world? If he didn't marry and have children, what would be left in the world after a hundred years?

"Reporting to Your Majesty, my name is Li Chang'an."

"Li Chang'an!" Zhao Yunsheng's breathing stagnated even more when he heard this.

"Chang'an... Chang'an... it fits Li Dage's character. Could this be Li Dage's cub? He's so old, and I don't even know? He's even hiding it from me? He's already at the pinnacle of martial arts, why hide it? Could it be the burden of a master..."

In an instant, Zhao Yunsheng was both angry and amused.

"Good, good, walk with me." Since Li Dage wanted to hide it, he would follow his wishes.

With a guess in his heart, he didn't ask any more questions, but walked around the Immortal Palace with Li Ji'an.

"Where has your master gone now?"

"He said he was going to clear some diseases, and he will be back when he's done," Li Ji'an replied.

Zhao Yunsheng immediately understood when he heard this: "That shouldn't be too long. I have already issued an edict that my world will never allow trafficking in children or the existence of those who harvest and cut."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Li Ji'an praised with a smile.

If the emperor of this world had done so earlier, why would he have suffered so much when he first "returned to his youth"?

As Zhao Yunsheng left, Li Ji'an officially entered the right track in this life.

The start of this life was exceptionally smooth, but it did not make Li Ji'an careless.

On the surface, it was created by Li Ji'an's strength at the pinnacle of martial arts in his previous life, but in reality, the root lies in the fact that there is an upper limit to martial arts in this world, and this upper limit seems a bit low in his four generations of accumulated comprehension.

Moreover, the key to this life also lies in his understanding of Zhao Yunsheng, with whom he lived day and night for nine years, and that Zhao Yunsheng had not seen him at the age of eight, otherwise, he would not dare to guarantee that such a start could be foolproof.

However... if we talk about foolproof.

The most ⊥new ⊥small ⊥say ⊥is ⊥at ⊥six ⊥9⊥⊥book ⊥⊥bar ⊥⊥first ⊥release!

I am afraid that only the day when he truly proves the Tao and achieves longevity can he truly be at ease, otherwise, every time he "returns to his youth", his strength, no matter how strong, is instantly reset to zero, and that kind of gap and powerlessness cannot be truly reassured by anyone.

In the following days, Li Ji'an maintained the top-level medicinal baths and supplements to nourish and train his muscles and bones.

Until he was thirteen years old, the Immortal Palace specially held a bone-touching ceremony for him to confirm the Dragon-Tiger countenance.

Lei Jingchuan also brought Zhao Shuyao that day. He had clearly touched her before and confirmed her Phoenix physique, but he still pretended not to know and insisted that Zhao Shuyao bloom once in front of everyone.

Since then, the Dragon-Tiger and Phoenix dispute began.

Of course, this was all Lei Jingchuan's own idea, and Li Ji'an just smiled it off.

However, what made Li Ji'an a little dumbfounded was that, for the sake of so-called fairness and justice, seeing that Li Ji'an had not shown up for five years, and the other instructors did not dare to interfere, fearing that Li Ji'an would not be supervised and would waste his cultivation, Lei Jingchuan would often supervise Li Ji'an.

Admonishing him not to be lazy and not to be distracted by other things.

In the end, he even brought Li Ji'an to his courtyard and accepted his guidance together with Zhao Shuyao.

This hindered Li Ji'an's plan to start practicing the self-created external martial arts that could nourish his qi and blood, and he was finally forced to write a letter, warning Lei Jingchuan not to interfere.

This move aroused Lei Jingchuan's anger, but he couldn't find Li Ji'an to argue with him in person, and he was almost so angry that he suffered a heart attack.

Zhao Shuyao also developed a prejudice against the famous Li Ji'an because of this, and eventually turned the spearhead to Li Chang'an.

These things, for Li Ji'an, were also seasonings in a plain and repetitive cultivation life.

Having started martial arts from stance training for the third time, there was really no fun or challenge. With the Dragon-Tiger countenance, coupled with the nourishment of the self-created martial arts from his previous life, and the strengthening of his mental strength in this life, he entered the Blood Exchange stage in just two years.

This result shocked everyone beyond measure, creating the fastest record in the Immortal Blessed Dynasty's martial arts to enter the Blood Exchange Realm, and it was far ahead.

When he was eight years old in this life, it happened to be one year after the last Immortal Ceremony Day, and there were nine years until the next Immortal Ceremony, and nineteen years until the next one.

When he entered the Blood Exchange Realm, he was fifteen years old, and there were still two years until the new Immortal Ceremony.

Normally, he would have no problem reaching Marrow Cleansing in two years.

However, he temporarily slowed down.

Two years later, at the Immortal Ceremony, he was a minor achievement in Blood Exchange and did not become an Immortal Seed.

Zhao Shuyao, with doubled efforts, finally caught up with him, also a minor achievement in Blood Exchange, and also missed the Immortal Seed.

This gave Zhao Shuyao the illusion that she was on the same level as Li Ji'an.

It wasn't until the next ten years that she was completely desperate.

Half a year after the Immortal Ceremony, Li Ji'an completed the Blood Exchange, two years later he completed the Marrow Cleansing, three years later he completed the Viscera Refining, and four years later he tempered his qi and blood, until his qi and blood were like a dragon!

On this day, Li Ji'an finally stepped into the Immortal Hall, quietly waiting for the Immortal Master to descend...

It's time to go to the cultivation world!
