I cast eternal life with the seeds of Tao

"Boom...!"

A roar sounded above the altar, like thunder in a clear sky.

Then, the scrolls in the hands of Taoist Qingqiu and Zhao Heng burst into a glittering light, covering the two of them.

The two of them stopped, as if frozen.

At the same time, with the two of them as the center, a strong wind whistled around the altar, and the green smoke on the incense table turned into a rolling tornado, straight to the sky!

This sudden and strange scene shocked everyone present.

There was a cry of surprise from the crowd.

"What... what is going on? Why is there a thundering sound?"

"Is it a miracle?"

"Why didn't the two state masters move? Did they really invite the gods from heaven down?"

...

These dignitaries present were all mortals, and seeing such a strange phenomenon, they couldn't help but associate it with the saying of ghosts and gods.

However, Princess Yuqing, who was standing behind Emperor Haoyuan and Queen Mu, was keenly aware of it.

The situation of the two people on the altar was strange, and there were also intense spiritual collisions in the scroll.

The princess's pretty face changed color, and she wanted to go on stage to check.

At this time, she heard Emperor Hao Yuan say: "The two state masters are performing their magical powers. Please call on the gods of the heavens. You are all quiet and are not allowed to go on stage to disturb!"

Hearing this, the originally noisy crowd suddenly quieted down.

Everyone held their breath and focused, paying close attention to the situation on the altar.

The princess hesitated for a moment, and also suppressed the urge to take action, and waited and watched.

As time passed, the light emanating from the heavenly book became more and more brilliant, and the sky was filled with roars...

About half a minute later.

"Boom...!"

With a shocking explosion, the ground under everyone's feet shook.

Then, the heavenly book lit up with a sky-high light.

Zhao Heng and Taoist Qingqiu, who were standing still, trembled at the same time.

The two staggered sideways for a few steps, and at the same time unfolded the Heavenly Book, completing the opening ceremony.

"Huh...!"

At this time, Zhao Heng secretly exhaled a foul breath, sweat slightly seeped from his forehead, and his eyes revealed a look of doubt.

The Taoist Qingqiu on the opposite side also had a pale face and sweat all over his head. He looked at Zhao Heng with a deep fear.

The two had just fought fiercely in the scroll with the power of the Yuanshen.

Although Taoist Qingqiu had a strong consciousness and relied on the blessing of the scroll magic weapon, he still failed to defeat Zhao Heng, who had a strong consciousness. The two were evenly matched, and Zhao Heng also escaped unscathed.

But through this invisible fight, Zhao Heng could basically confirm.

The Taoist Qingqiu should be the mastermind behind turning Commander Chen and General Manager Liu into refined corpses and controlling Emperor Haoyuan.

The other party must have suspected that he was investigating him and deliberately wanted to kill him through the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony.

Although it was in public, it was only the destruction of the soul, and ordinary people could not see anything unusual. The other party might even refine himself into a walking corpse and be controlled by him.

After thinking all this through, Zhao Heng looked at the Taoist Qingqiu, and his eyes became calm instead.

Since the target was locked, he could not alert the enemy.

He just needed to wait for the reinforcements from the sect to arrive, and then he could catch them all in one fell swoop.

"The Taoist is indeed very advanced, I admire him!"

Zhao Heng took the initiative to clasp his fists, as if the two of them were just sparring just now.

Taoist Qingqiu also squeezed out a smile on his face.

"Haha... State Master is polite, same for each other!"

Then, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky went on as usual.

Emperor Haoyuan and Queen Mu ascended the altar, led the civil and military officials, and began the grand and cumbersome sacrificial ceremony.

During the ceremony, Zhao Heng and the princess secretly communicated with each other.

"Are you okay?" The princess asked with concern.

"I'm fine."

"What did you find?"

"It's basically confirmed. It's this guy. He has already suspected me. In order to prevent this guy from jumping off the wall, His Majesty and the Queen must move in advance. Staying in the palace will cause trouble." Zhao Heng responded.

The princess pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, when the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky is over, I will find a way to let my father and mother meet you alone.

When the time comes, we will tell them everything and take them out of the palace."

"Okay!"

The two reached a consensus in secret.

It was several hours later when the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the sky was over.

After finally waiting until the ceremony was over, the civil and military officials were busy going home.

Emperor Haoyuan and the Queen, the concubines, princes, and princesses in the harem also returned to the palace.

At this time, it was getting dark, and a little eunuch came to Zhao Heng and said respectfully.

"Master Guoshi, His Majesty summoned you in Qifeng Palace."

Zhao Heng was not surprised. He had just received the telepathy of the princess.

The princess kept Emperor Hao Yuan, who was planning to return to Zhaixing Tower to continue his cultivation, on the pretext that Zhao Heng was going to present elixirs.

Zhao Heng hurriedly followed the eunuch to the harem and came to the "Qifeng Palace" of the empress.

Here, Zhao Heng met Emperor Hao Yuan and Empress Mu, as well as the princess and the fourth princess who were accompanying them.

Zhao Heng stepped forward to pay his respects.

"Your servant Hu Feinan, I pay my respects to your majesty, the empress, and the two princesses!"

Among the four people, Princess Yuxuan had the strongest reaction when seeing Zhao Heng transformed into Hu Feinan.

As soon as the fourth princess saw her idol in person, her peach blossom eyes lit up.

The princess, who knew Zhao Heng's identity, had a blank expression on her face, while Empress Mu was more curious.

Emperor Hao Yuan himself, on the other hand, had an expectant look on his face.

He said anxiously: "My dear, please don't be polite. I heard from Yu Qing that you have an elixir to present to me? I wonder what kind of elixir it is and what effect it has?"

Emperor Hao Yuan was not interested in women, but he was extremely eager for elixirs for health and longevity.

Without saying a word, Zhao Heng took out a bottle of elixir that he had already prepared.

The bottle was a jade porcelain bottle that emitted precious light, and it only contained elixirs for health preservation taken by the acquired warriors of the Yuhua Sect.

"Your Majesty, this elixir is called "Nine-turn Longevity Elixir"!"

Zhao Heng made up a name for the elixir that was full of gimmicks.

"Taking this elixir for a long time can prolong your life, rejuvenate your youth, and keep your Majesty young forever!"

Hearing this, Emperor Hao Yuan's eyes sparkled with excitement, and he actually stood up excitedly.

"There really is such a miraculous elixir, let me see it!"

Zhao Heng smiled and handed it to the other party, thinking that this old emperor was too easy to fool.

In that case, I'll take him to the fairy mountain to look for pills, and he won't follow me happily?

He casually handed the porcelain bottle to Emperor Hao Yuan, and when he took the pills, his palm accidentally touched Zhao Heng's hand.

Zhao Heng's storage ring suddenly vibrated, and the bronze fragments that had been silent for a long time emitted a faint light.

From Emperor Hao Yuan's body, a faint invisible strange heat flow passed through Zhao Heng's palm and entered the storage ring, and was absorbed by the bronze fragments.

Such an unintentional phenomenon made Zhao Heng's pupils tremble violently, and his expression was dull and unbelievable for a moment.

In his mind, countless thoughts flashed in a flash.

"My dear, I will go back to Zhaixing Tower today and take your elixir. If it really works like this, I will definitely reward you handsomely.

When the time comes, please make me a few more elixirs!"

Hearing this, the princess on the side winked at Zhao Heng, asking him to tell the truth and take Emperor Haoyuan and the queen out of the palace.

However, Zhao Heng was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said.

"Your Majesty, these elixirs are just what I got by chance. In terms of the art of alchemy, I am afraid my attainments are far inferior to those of Taoist Qingqiu."

Emperor Haoyuan smiled and said, "My dear, you are too modest. In this case, I will go back to Zhaixing Tower first."

After saying that, regardless of the slightly resentful look of Queen Mu on the side, Emperor Haoyuan casually responded with a few words and walked away.

Seeing this, the princess was a little anxious. Just when she was about to stop him, she was stopped by Zhao Heng's eyes and shook her head secretly at him.

Although the princess didn't understand why, she finally held back and didn't say anything.

After Emperor Haoyuan left, Zhao Heng also bid farewell to the Queen and hurriedly left Qifeng Palace.

The Princess accompanied him to see him off.

As the two walked out of the palace gate, the Princess finally couldn't help but speak.

"You knew that Taoist Qingqiu was the mastermind behind the scenes, why did you let my father return to Zhaixing Tower? Why did you change your mind at the last minute?"

The Princess' tone was full of doubt and anger.

Zhao Heng was not dissatisfied with this. At least the other party chose to believe in him at the first time and did not act rashly. This was enough.

Zhao Heng looked directly at the Princess and said word by word: "Princess, you will stay in Changchun Palace for the next few days, and protect the Queen for me.

Others, don't do anything, don't ask anything!"

Hearing this, the Princess's face was more puzzled, "But, my father..."

Zhao Heng's expression became more serious than ever before, and he said solemnly.

"If you believe me, do as I say. I will give you an answer within three days!"

The princess was stunned by Zhao Heng's serious attitude. She hesitated for a long time and finally nodded.

"Okay... I will wait for you for another three days. If you don't give me an answer after three days, I will find a way to deal with those three guys!"

"Okay, it's a deal!"
