Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 479 Royal Palace
"Hahaha, good, very good."

"Zi Lu, An Guang, with you here, my Great Yu will prosper!"

The sound of the Holy Emperor's laughter could be heard from the Imperial Study.

Eunuch Zheng, who was familiar with the Holy Emperor's temper, had sent away the palace maids and eunuchs outside the imperial study early on. After all, the emperor had to have dignity and could not be listened to casually.

He was able to serve the Holy Emperor for so long.

It all depends on being careful and keeping one's mouth shut.

Of course, there is also the fact that when the Holy Emperor was brought into the palace from Shu, he was already a eunuch who served him personally.

I wonder how many eunuchs are envious of him.

Zhang Shoufu looked at his nose with his eyes, and then looked at his heart with his nose, and bowed slightly: "This is my responsibility."

This world-famous chief civil official was extremely rule-abiding and never overstepped the boundaries of etiquette, even to the point of being rigid.

Standing next to Prime Minister Zhang.

He was a burly middle-aged man, none other than Liao Qi, Marquis of Dingyuan, whose courtesy name was Anguang.

The other person mentioned by the Holy Emperor is him.

Marquis Dingyuan also clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

But except for two people.

The third person in the imperial study seemed a little special.

Li Rui stood behind the two big guys, not saying anything, just listening quietly. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't even notice that he was in the room.

After court today.

The Holy Emperor summoned him, Prime Minister Zhang and Marquis Dingyuan.

It is precisely because he is very satisfied with the fact that the number of rebellions by immortal cultivators in various places has decreased significantly in recent times.

Zhang Shoufu is the chief of Xunshan Division, so he deserves the praise.

As for Marquis Dingyuan.

This was because after Yuan Dingting was granted the title of nobility and went to the south, his influence in the military became even greater. He supervised the battles of thirteen military garrisons alone and made an indelible contribution to suppressing the rebellion of immortal cultivators.

The Holy Emperor was in a very good mood.

The three of them stayed and talked for a while.

Suddenly.

Suddenly, he mentioned something: "Old Four has been doing things steadily lately, but he used to be idle. Zilu, Anguang, you can teach him more in the future."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The two big guys in front said yes.

Li Rui also bowed.

I was thinking secretly in my heart.

After the Fourth Prince Zhu Ting entered the palace, the Holy Emperor asked this former prince of Taoism to be responsible for supervising and coordinating matters concerning the immortal cultivators throughout the world. To put it bluntly, it was to establish good relations with the Xunshan Division, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, the Ministry of Rites, and all the major military towns throughout the world.

Judging from the results.

Zhu Ting did a pretty good job.

Of course, Li Rui’s matchmaking was also indispensable.

After having a meal with Zhu Ting last time, Zhu Ting often came to him and he would help whenever he could.

The two sides have a good relationship and Zhu Ting's performance is also very good.

Although there is nothing particularly eye-catching, but in the court, stability is already the greatest achievement.

Especially for a prince.

But what caught Li Rui's attention more was that the Holy Emperor praised Zhu Ting in front of the three of them.

Especially Prime Minister Zhang and Marquis Dingyuan.

It is worth pondering.

Obviously, the Holy Emperor wants to train the Fourth Prince.

Although it was just a sign, it was already a great joy for Zhu Ting, as it meant that Zhu Ting had truly entered the vision of his father.

This step may be an insurmountable obstacle for Zhu Ting, a prince whose maternal lineage is weak and who is not favored.

The Holy Emperor finished speaking.

Then he heard the voice of Eunuch Zheng outside the door: "Your Majesty, it's time to eat."

Hear the words.

The Holy Emperor slapped his thigh and stood up: "Let's go, Zilu, An Guang, Li Aiqing is here too, how about hot pot?"

Prime Minister Zhang immediately said, "My wife is waiting at home, so I am afraid I cannot accompany Your Majesty."

The Holy Emperor couldn't help but feel regretful: "Zi Lu, you really aren't destined to enjoy happiness."

Everyone in the capital knows it.

Prime Minister Zhang is henpecked.

after that.

Li Rui accompanied the Holy Emperor to have another hotpot meal.

In addition to him, there is also Marquis Dingyuan.

The Holy Emperor continued to eat heartily, and most of the time, he was talking to Marquis Dingyuan.

In fact, all Li Rui knew about this marquis who had the greatest power before Yuan Dingting was conferred the title of marquis was from intelligence.

It is said that Lord Dingyuan is extremely brave.

But at least today in front of the Holy Emperor, he was a man of few words.

Finished lunch.

Only then did he leave the imperial city and arrive at the Xunshansi Yamen in Qianbu Corridor.

"Such a domineering spiritual power."

In Xunshansi's room.

Li Rui thought secretly.

That day, he swallowed the black fish's spiritual fetus directly and obtained the spiritual power from the spiritual fetus.

Do the math.

It is much more powerful than the best spirit stones.

"Sure enough, they are the fastest to rob others. No wonder there are always so many demon cultivators in the world who can't be killed off." Li Rui thought, smiling and shaking his head.

Naturally, he would not become a magic practitioner.

Demon cultivators have many advantages, but the fact that their death and injury rate far exceeds that of other cultivators is enough for Li Rui to completely eliminate them.

"Very good."

The corners of his mouth raised slightly.

With the enormous spiritual power provided by the black fish spirit fetus, as long as you refine it patiently, it won’t take long before you can step firmly into the initial realm of celestial phenomena and form the fetus.

In fact, even if an ordinary cultivator swallowed the spirit fetus of a black fish.

It is impossible to break through so easily.

One reason is that the spiritual energy of the spiritual fetus is contaminated by the living soul, making it more complex and extremely difficult to absorb.

Second, there is a bottleneck in fetal development.

Otherwise, wouldn't it mean that as long as they have enough spiritual energy, everyone can become a great monk?
However, these two problems are not a problem for Li Rui.

He is an innate immortal martial arts fetus, which is a higher-dimensional existence for a spiritual fetus and is not afraid of being contaminated by impurities at all.

As for the bottleneck.

Li Rui has even less.

As long as the Dao fetus completely digests the Black Fish Spirit fetus, he will be able to gain a firm foothold in the Celestial Realm naturally.

"It's Ji Lei again."

A figure emerged in his mind.

After devouring the spirit fetus of the black fish, Li Rui also obtained all of the black fish's memories. In the black fish's memory, Li Rui discovered good news.

In this world, there is a method of visualizing the Qingxuan Avenue.

There is also bad news.

That visualization method is in the hands of the North Pole Immortal Sect.

'It's just a little tricky.'

Li Rui thought secretly.

The visualization method is extremely important in every immortal sect. Not to mention that he is a member of the enemy party, even the elders of the North Pole Immortal Sect may not be able to obtain it.

"Visualization cannot be rushed."

Li Rui shook his head.

Fortunately, the greatest effect of visualization is still in the step of harmony with the Tao, and there is still a long time to reach that step.

What he lacks the least is patience.

Put away your thoughts.

Li Rui began to practice the Eternal Green Technique to help the Taoist fetus digest the spiritual power in the black fish fetus as quickly as possible.

at this time.

In the palace.

"Fourth brother, are you leaving the palace?"

The fifth prince Zhu Qian said with a smile as he looked at the fourth prince Zhu Ting who was walking out of the palace gate.

Zhu Ting saw Zhu Qian and slowly stopped:
"So it's my fifth brother, not bad, I'll go to the Mountain Division for a visit."

Zhu Qian: "Fourth brother is quite diligent in looking for Shan Si."

As he spoke, he was also looking at this fourth brother, whom he had never noticed before.

There are actually not many princes who can enter the imperial city, only four or five.

In the past, the fourth prince Zhu Ting was not well-known.

To put it bluntly, Zhu Ting's mother was a low-class beauty selected from the countryside by the royal family for the sake of fame. How could she compare with him, the fifth prince who had the support of Gao family and the imperial teacher?

But I never expected it.

He married a woman from the witch clan and actually entered the palace.

I heard that he was even praised by his father, the emperor.

It's really the opposite of Tiangang.

"It's all for the sake of my father."

Zhu Ting smiled slightly.

Zhu Qian narrowed his eyes: "Then Fourth Brother must be very diligent."

He smiled on the surface, but he was sneering in his heart.

Everyone knows that when Zhu Ting went to look for Shan Si, he was most likely going to look for Li Rui.

He couldn't see yet.

This fourth brother clearly wanted to use Li Rui to make friends with Gu Changsheng.
"You are good at calculating, but you don't have the ability."

Zhu Qian cupped his hands.

In his opinion, except for the eldest prince, who had a similarly noble status and had already entered the celestial realm, the rest of his brothers posed no threat to him at all.

Suddenly.

He asked with a smile: "I heard that Fourth Brother has a very good relationship with that Lord Li?"

Zhu Ting: "Fifth brother, you are joking. Lord Li is reliable and I need his advice."

Zhu Qian said "oh".

He said nothing more and turned around to walk in the opposite direction of Zhu Ting.

He had just learned a secret.

Li Rui was not the secret guard appointed by his father in Qinghe as rumored, but he started practicing martial arts after he was seventy years old.

In other words.

In just thirty years, he entered the realm of Tongxuan.

'Such a root bone.'

Zhu Qian licked his lips.

'No hurry, no rush. '
