3115. A King Who Doesn’t Want a Kingdom Just for the Sake of Immortality 2
"Although he gave up the throne, his descendants still controlled the world. With the help of his descendants, he searched for elixirs in the world of cultivation, and then refined them into elixirs for consumption. A hundred years later, his cultivation was unexpectedly strong He was promoted to the Spiritual Silence Stage by the elixir. However, since then, his strength has never improved.
After more than two hundred years, he knew that the end was coming, so he ordered his descendants to send people to dig out the inside of the mountain. This huge project involved tens of thousands of people and took decades to complete. After that, he built this palace with pumice stones from the world of cultivation and named it the Ascension Hall, hoping that after death, his soul would ascend to heaven and become an immortal.
Leng Xuan smiled secretly. No wonder this palace used so many gold and jade objects. As a secular king, even if he became a cultivator, it would be difficult to change his nature. However, that king's obsession was so strong that he did not hesitate to pay such a high price in order to become an immortal. However, he was a little strange. This was the venue for the Cultivation Conference. The king sent tens of thousands of people to dig mountains here and spent so many years. Could it be that no cultivators discovered it? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask Master Guigu. The other party replied: "The first Cultivation Conference was held eight hundred years ago. At that time, it had already completed the construction. No one would notice that there would be a palace inside this mountain. Boy, let's go back. There is no need. It’s a waste of time in a place like this.”
Leng Xuan smiled and said: "We are here anyway, why not look for it again, maybe there will be a surprise." Master Guigu said lightly: "It's up to you, anyway, hurry up, we have to find a way out." Leng Xuan Looking around, I saw a screen placed behind the throne, and there seemed to be an arch behind it. Now he took steps and walked over. Guigu Zhenren stood motionless, and he lost interest in it after knowing the origin of this palace. In his opinion, since the emperor was only a cultivator in the spiritual silence period, there would be no treasures from the world of cultivation in such a place. At most, they would be some worldly treasures. At this time, Leng Xuan had already passed through the arch behind the screen and arrived at the inner hall of the palace. Standing at the entrance of the inner hall, Leng Xuan stopped and turned his eyes to look around. I saw that the decoration of the inner hall was the same as that of the outer hall, magnificent and full of luxury. In addition, there is also a golden human statue placed in the inner hall. I don’t know who the statue is. It is wearing a long robe and has a majestic face. It stands on the colorful clouds with its feet, looking like it is soaring in the sky.
Under the statue, there is an offering table with various worldly treasures placed on it. Three steps away from the altar, there was a golden futon, on which a tall man was kneeling. Since he was facing the statue, Leng Xuan couldn't see his face clearly. Secretly alert, Leng Xuan carefully moved to the side of the futon. After a while, the man's appearance finally appeared in his eyes. I saw that the other party's face was thin, old, and full of wrinkles. His eyes were slightly closed and his forehead drooped slightly, as if he was praying to the statue devoutly. After Leng Xuan looked at it twice, a hint of enlightenment suddenly arose in his heart. If he guessed correctly, this old man was the king who wished to become an immortal.
