Longevity: Never leave the mountain until you are invincible

inside the room.

Wanyan Shilie clenched his fists tightly, and there seemed to be flames burning in his eyes.

He saw hope.

He saw the hope of breaking through the innate realm.

As long as Chu Chen gives him enough pills, he has the possibility of breaking through to the innate realm.

"I can give you three hundred energy pills to help you break through the Henglian Xiantian."

Chu Chen's voice sounded in his ears again.

"I thank the Lord for his great kindness. If the Lord orders me to do so in the future, I will do my best to go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of ​​fire, even to the death."

Wanyan Shilie prostrated again and kowtowed to the ground.

"I won't believe a word of the oral oath."

Chu Chen chuckled: "Compared to the oath, I am more willing to believe in Poison Pill."

"This pill is called the Seven Eclipse Poison Pill, and those who take it must take the antidote every other year.

If the antidote cannot be taken in time, the power of the poison pill will corrode the body of the person who takes the pill, until the person who takes the pill turns into bones. "

"If you want to get three hundred Essence Pills, you must swallow the Seven Erosion Poison Pills."

"If you don't want to, I won't force you. I will wash your marrow and cut your veins according to the previous agreement."

As he spoke, a pill that was as black as ink and exuded a faint fishy smell floated in front of Wanyan Shilie.

Wanyan Shilie never spoke, but his actions showed everything.

He took the Seven Eclipse Poison Pill and swallowed it in one gulp without hesitation.

"Please give me medicine from the Lord!"

After doing this, Wanyan Shilie kowtowed to the ground again.

"good."

Chu Chen laughed loudly, raised his hand, and a medicine gourd flew out and fell into the room.

"There are three hundred essence pills here. Remember what you said, and help me continue to search for these ores in the future. I will give you the antidote and rewards."

After saying that, Chu Chen stepped down and left the inn.

"Thank you, Lord."

Wanyan Shilie took the medicine gourd with an excited expression, and the fire in his eyes seemed to burn even brighter.

The elixir is in hand, and the future is in sight!

As long as he refines these elixirs in the medicine gourd, he can break through the innate realm.

At that time, whether it was the establishment of Silver Moon City or the control of the Silver Moon Tribe, it would no longer be a problem.

"Even the entire barbarian tribe..."

…

Imperial capital.

Pawn shop secret room.

"One thousand and one low-grade spiritual stones."

Chu Chen released the Five Qi Pill Furnace and counted the spiritual stones in it over and over again.

When the little white mouse on the side saw this scene, he couldn't help rolling his eyes, holding a small wine bottle, turned over, and continued to enjoy the wine in the bottle.

"Huh~"

Chu Chen slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and suppressed the emotions surging in his heart.

Isn’t it just one thousand and one low-grade spiritual stones?

It’s not like I haven’t, cough, I really haven’t seen it.

However, as an immortal, one should have thunder in the chest and a flat lake in the face.

How can a few spiritual stones lead to huge emotional ups and downs?

"The Barbarian Grassland is indeed a treasure land. I wonder how many spiritual stones exist in the vast grassland?"

After putting away the spirit stones, Chu Chen looked forward to the barbarian grassland even more.

Judging from the current situation, there should still be many spirit stone veins in the barbarian grasslands.

Although most of these spirit stone veins are extremely small, they are still pregnant with spirit stones.

Take Wanyan Shilie's discovery of the spirit stone vein in the Canglang tribe's mine as an example. Only more than a thousand low-grade spirit stones were produced. Such a spirit stone vein cannot be called a spirit stone vein.

Ordinary small-scale mineral veins can produce at least tens of thousands of low-grade spiritual stones.

The Canglang tribe's spiritual stone veins can only be regarded as branches of the spiritual stone veins.

But for Chu Chen, it was completely enough.

It doesn't take too much. Finding two or three more of these spirit stone veins will be enough for him to quickly break through the seventh level of Qi training.

"The matter of the spirit stone veins is not urgent for now. When Wanyan Shilie breaks through to the innate realm, he can better search for the spirit stone veins for me."

Chu Chen was not in a hurry, the spiritual stones in his hand were enough for the time being.

…

Several years have passed, and the country of Dayan has not changed much, and nothing major has happened.

The only thing worth mentioning is Emperor Chengwu's reform of the imperial examination.

For a long time, the imperial examinations in the Yan Kingdom have been controlled by the gentry.

Don't look at the original Empress Dowager Zhao and Emperor Hongguang, who slaughtered noble families several times, but the noble families have always been there.

For example, Xu Dongliu, the Prime Minister of Great Yan, was a member of the Xu family, a noble family, and had been passed down for hundreds of years. This was not the longest-standing noble family.

In the Great Yan Kingdom, there are many gentry clans that have been passed down for thousands of years, and their history is even older than that of the Great Yan Kingdom.

It can be called a thousand-year-old family.

The noble families controlled the selection of the imperial examinations, and it was difficult for students from poor families and common people to get ahead unless they were lucky enough to be appreciated by the examiner.

Or you could become a retainer of a noble family, and bear the mark of a noble family, and then you could go to high school.

Even after the two subsequent massacres by Empress Dowager Zhao and Emperor Hongguang, as well as the suppression by Emperor Hongguang, the gentry clan only declined but did not disappear.

The influence of noble families on the imperial examinations has never ceased.

Emperor Chengwu relied on supporting a group of gentry clans and suppressing a group of gentry clans. Coupled with the help of nobles in the military, the influence of the gentry clans on the imperial examinations was greatly weakened.

Over the years, many students from poor families and ordinary people with real talents and knowledge have stepped onto the political stage of Dayan Chaotang to show what they have learned.

The country of Yan is prosperous, the country is peaceful and the people are safe.

"I thought that the Great Yan Kingdom would be destroyed soon, but through the efforts of several outstanding people, the Great Yan Kingdom showed signs of coming back to life."

Chu Chen couldn't help but sigh.

During the reign of Queen Mother Zhao, the Great Yan Kingdom was in turmoil, with unrest in various places, and there was a trend of the dynasty overthrowing.

At that time, he also asserted that the Great Yan Kingdom would be destroyed.

Unexpectedly, with the efforts of Emperor Hongguang, Duke Weiyuan, Yan Nanfei and others, not only did they curb the continued deterioration of the Great Yan Kingdom, but they also made the Great Yan Kingdom have the trend of revival.

"Although the Great Yan has the trend of revival, the threat of the vassal kings is still there, and the country is also unstable."

Li San talked a lot when chatting with Zhu, the shopkeeper of Yunxi Tower.

Middle-aged men.

I like to talk about state affairs and give advice on the country.

Emperor Chengwu has tried all kinds of ways to weaken the power of the Kangwang Mansion and the Jinwang Mansion in recent years.

It's a pity that it's not satisfactory.

The Kangwang Mansion and the Jinwang Mansion firmly control the land of several prefectures in the eastern part of the Great Yan, making it impossible for Emperor Chengwu to intervene.

Later, the Wusheng Sect even mixed up with the Kangwang Mansion and the Jinwang Mansion. The three parties joined forces and officially had the qualifications to shake the foundation of the Great Yan Kingdom.

The Kangwang Mansion and the Jinwang Mansion had people and soldiers, and the Wusheng Sect had the innate master Wusheng Tianwang. The three parties joined forces, which made Emperor Chengwu afraid to act rashly.

In this case, Emperor Chengwu could only temporarily give up the plan to attack the Kangwang Mansion and the Jinwang Mansion.

"What's the instability? Your Majesty is just accumulating strength. As long as the strength is accumulated enough, Your Majesty can mobilize the army to suppress the Kangwang Mansion and the Jinwang Mansion."

However, Manager Zhu held an opposing attitude and firmly supported Emperor Chengwu.

"General Zhao Ming'an trained 100,000 vassal-guarding troops in the northern border and traveled across the barbarian grasslands. If he succeeds, he can suppress the Kangwang Mansion and the Jinwang Mansion for Your Majesty."

In the eleventh year of Chengwu, Emperor Chengwu ordered the training of an elite new army in the northern border.

With the support of many military nobles such as Duke Weiyuan, this new army was commanded by Zhao Ming'an.
