Cultivation of immortality begins with an eighty-year-old eunuch.

Chapter 205 Something's happened in the palace! News about the Purple Monkey Flower!

again!

The old man's expression changed!

Suddenly, a figure appeared right in front of us!

The terrifying sword light startled the old man, who quickly grabbed his axe to block it!

clang!

With a piercing metallic clang, Ji Daozi was violently blasted back dozens of steps!

With a grin, he remarked:

"Such a quick reaction...it's just a pity..."

The old man frowned deeply!

Looking at the guy in front of him who only had the cultivation of the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm, a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes!

puff!

Just as he was wondering what was going on, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest!

Looking down, he saw a long sword piercing his heart!

"There are still people..."

The old man, who died with his eyes wide open, swallowed hard, then his head lolled to the side and he breathed his last!

"Trying to play dead to fool us..."

The person who drew the sword from behind was Chen Fan!

With a smile on his face, he casually stabbed several more times with his sword!

Only after the old man's skin was torn open and he was completely still did Chen Fan sheathe his sword!

He hadn't stopped yet; he raised his hand again, making hand seals and chanting incantations!

Collect the soul!

Soul Sealing!

"ah…"

Suddenly, the old man's soul emerged from his head.

With a scream, he was then taken into the Black Soul Sail!

A killer-soul-stealing operation!

Chen Fan then lowered his guard.

Having witnessed firsthand how terrifying these people were, he's still quite apprehensive!

"Sect Master... did I do alright?" Ji Daozi asked, seeking praise.

Chen Fan nodded slightly.

He casually took the storage bag from the old man's corpse, a slight smile appearing in his eyes as he said:

"Good job...we'll get you more land to farm when we get back!"

"You...I..." Jidaozi was stunned!

Chen Fan smiled without saying a word!

Then, he used the Soul Refining Technique to collect the souls of the remaining three people into the Black Soul Sail!

And those white ape corpses that were comparable to the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Realm, pack them up and take them away!

Come to Daheishan.

Chen Fan not only obtained the Jade Marrow Mushroom, but also the inner core of a fifth-tier demon beast.

With these corpses added to the mix, his haul was truly substantial!

As his thoughts raced, Chen Fan quietly set up his formation and departed...

……

The sky was dark.

Large, fluffy snowflakes fell on the streets of Chang'an.

The raging cold wind had reduced the number of pedestrians on the street to almost nothing!

Chen Fan only returned at this hour.

Squinting as I wandered through the streets.

He let the snowflakes fall on his straw hat, and soon a thin layer of them accumulated!

I don't know why.

Chen Fan always felt that there was a chilling atmosphere in the imperial city.

The atmosphere was completely different from that during the day!

Without giving it much thought, he walked step by step toward the palace!

Climb over the palace walls!

Chen Fan returned to the palace.

He originally intended to go straight back to the Imperial Horse Stables, but he discovered a clue along the way!

The palace was filled with Embroidered Uniform Guards and Imperial Guards!

They were searching for something, their faces filled with murderous intent!

Something has happened in the palace!

Could it be that Emperor Jianwen has stormed in?

Chen Fan frowned!

Not wanting to meddle in other people's business, he quickly returned to the Imperial Stables!

After confirming that no assassins had come to his house, Chen Fan changed his clothes and quietly sat cross-legged to meditate and cultivate.

The night passed quickly.

The third quarter of the hour of Mao (5:45 AM).

Chen Fan, who had been cultivating all night, slightly opened his eyes.

Looking straight ahead, he stretched his back, then got up, dressed, and went out!

Squeak...

When I opened the door, it was still snowing heavily outside!

The snow didn't stop that night, and the palace was covered in white once again!

As Chen Fan walked through the snow, he instinctively wrapped his coat tighter around himself.

They walked step by step toward the kitchen!

"Godfather...please have a seat..."

The little stool arrived a long time ago!

As he was tending the fire, he saw his godfather arrive and quickly moved closer to him!

"Godfather, something's happened at the palace! There were assassins yesterday!"

Upon hearing this news...

Chen Fan was not surprised at all.

After all, every year around the end of the year, there would be a few assassins coming to the palace; he was used to it!

"You didn't catch anyone?" Chen Fan smiled.

The little stool shook its head slightly.

This was the first time he had encountered something like this since he had just become the governor!

"Godfather... we've searched the entire palace... but we can't find anyone. The other person's cultivation level... should be stronger than mine! Luckily, the Emperor is alright... otherwise..."

Looking at the small stool that seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

Chen Fan nodded with a smile on his face:

"It's a good thing they didn't catch him... Things haven't been peaceful in the palace lately... You still need to know how to protect yourself!"

"Yes... I will follow Godfather's teachings..." Little Stool nodded repeatedly.

Afterwards, the father and son talked about the sacrificial ceremony to heaven.

Xiao Dengzi said that Emperor Yongle attached great importance to this sacrificial ceremony to Heaven.

Not only did they bring out many royal treasures and rare materials!

Moreover, they also offered up many treasures of the Great Yan royal family!

The little stool, as if counting its own treasures, even read out the names of these precious materials.

When Chen Fan heard about the Purple Monkey Flower, he instantly lost his composure!

You should know that the key ingredients required for the Foundation Building Pill include the Purple Monkey Flower!

According to the jade slip map provided by Zhao Ji, the Purple Monkey Flower can only be found in the State of Zhao!

The State of Zhao is nearly ten thousand miles away from Dayuan, a truly long distance!

Chen Fan was just wondering when to go, but unexpectedly, he found it without any effort at all!

Furthermore, Emperor Yongle's use of so many treasures for the sacrificial ceremony was, in his view, completely problematic!

My thoughts are in turmoil.

After exchanging a few words with Xiaodengzi, Chen Fan hurriedly left!

Leave the kitchen.

Chen Fan did not go back inside.

As he walked out of the Imperial Horse Stables, he strolled leisurely through the palace.

After hearing that there were purple monkey flowers in the palace, all he wanted now was to seize the treasure!

Chen Fan smiled, a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth.

Like a phantom, it headed straight for the warehouse!

This is where the treasure trove of the Great Abyss is located.

Almost all kinds of elixirs and treasures are stored here!

Chen Fan, who knew the way well, had just arrived here.

They then discovered that the entrance to the treasure vault was already heavily guarded!

One by one, the Imperial Guards stood guard here, swords in hand.

Seeing this, Chen Fan, who was squinting, secretly shook his head.

He then quickly mobilized all his spiritual power, and his body vanished into nothingness!

The Secret of Concealment!

Pass through these guards.

Chen Fan successfully entered the treasure vault.

Looking around, there were indeed many more treasures here.

They have everything from Qi-Gathering Pills to jewelry.

But Chen Fan scanned the area.

The purple monkey flower was not found.

Including the other rare and precious materials that Xiaodeng mentioned, there isn't a single one here!

Without making a sound, Chen Fan looked around.

He immediately turned and left!

After a while.

On a rockery in the Imperial Garden.

Chen Fan, who had just arrived, touched his chin, his face full of confusion.

He thought to himself that he had just searched the entire palace but had not found the place where the purple monkey flower was hidden!

Could it be that the little stool was a lie to him?

While Chen Fan was troubled.

But then they saw a commotion coming from ahead.

Several familiar figures were seen slowly walking towards them.

The leader was none other than Emperor Yongle of the Great Yuan Dynasty!

Next are Commander Ma and Little Stool!

"Your Majesty... the Imperial Preceptor has been in seclusion for many days... perhaps we should..." Commander Ma asked.

"It's alright..." Emperor Yongle said with a light laugh, his hands behind his back.

"The Imperial Advisor has his own plans; there's no need to disturb him!"

As Emperor Yongle was speaking, an inconspicuous bag at his waist came into Chen Fan's view!

Storage bag!
