Southern Tang Palace

The Palace of Eternal Life is a side hall built by Li Jing in a remote corner of the palace, of course, this is also done at Wang Ran's request. Wang Ran has not been in the court for much, and he is getting older and older, even though he has peerless magical skills, he is still a mortal after all, and his health is getting worse and worse.

Wang Ran still wanted to stay by Li Jing's side to serve, but Li Jing already knew that he couldn't do it, so he built him a place to support him.

The Palace of Eternal Life is not magnificent, it can even be said that it is built very ordinary, Li Jing and the people in the palace rarely go to the vicinity of the Palace of Eternal Life, and only the people who are responsible for serving Wang Ran's pension enter and exit.

Li Jing also hopes to leave a peerless master in the palace, so as not to be killed by others who rush into the palace. After all, there are too many masters of Da Zhou and Khitan, not to mention the roles of Lei Hong and Bu Xiangyang, even Zhao Kuangyin basically has this kind of strength.

Anyway, Wang Ran's consumption is not high, so Li Jing doesn't care about spending this money to save his life.

No one knows, in fact, there is another person who often goes in and out of the Hall of Eternal Life, and that is the first person to know Wang Ran, Li Congjia.

At this time, Li Congjia knelt in the Hall of Eternal Life, and in the hall sat a person who looked to be only in his 60s, this person could no longer be called a human being, because his head had flesh horns, and his eyes were like wild beasts expanding freely.

"Master has been a lot younger lately. ”

Wang Ran said: "I've been in good shape recently, but it will take me a while to practice my skills to the peak." How are you doing with the martial arts I taught you?"

"The heart devouring trick is a little successful, the snake fist python leg has been practiced to perfection, and the snake king stick method has yet to be mastered. Li Congjia said: "I don't know when I will be able to practice to a realm like Master, take off my mortal body, and incarnate into a dragon." ”

"You still have time, don't worry about it. Wang Ran said: "Being a teacher is not a martial arts genius, and it can even be said to be a waste, but diligence can make up for clumsiness, and martial arts are practiced slowly, as long as there is time, they will always practice well." Your talent is far better than that of a teacher, and your internal strength foundation is good, so you will definitely be faster than a teacher. What's more, the most important thing about this set of magic skills is that you need the qi of the true dragon, you stay by the emperor's side for far more time than for the teacher, and the future achievements will be above the teacher. ”

"The disciple doesn't dare to ......," Li Congjia said: "Now that the master has grown meat horns, it must not take long to become a real dragon, right?" ”

"How can it be so easy? But what you have for a teacher is time. Wang Ran said: "Looking back, it was because of this secret book that I had the intention to fight again, otherwise I wouldn't have survived a long time ago." The things of the teacher are not hidden from you, and the history is always strikingly similar. When I was a teacher, I thought I was sitting firmly in the country, but what was the result? I wasn't defeated by Liu Xiu's kid. So this time, I want to be steady and steady, as long as I can stay in the palace, slowly absorb the true dragon's qi, and don't rush it. ”

Of course, Wang Ran has no choice. Now, if he was standing next to Li Jing like this, he would have to scare Li Jing out half of his life. Wang Ran's state can hardly be called a person, like a half-human, half-snake, half-dragon.

Li Congjia said enviously: "Master, how long will you maintain this state?"

"That's not necessarily, I haven't seen anyone else practice this skill before, so I'm still in the research stage. Recently, every time he molts, he is one year younger, but the molting time is not stable, the longest time is once every six months, and the shortest time is two or three months. Anyway, the more times I molt, the more refined my skills become, and I can even feel noticeable changes in my body. ”

Wang Ran was excited about this, but the pain of molting was still fresh in his memory. Every molt is like a rebirth, and the molt time is very long, in this process, Wang Ran has no power to resist, if there is an enemy, practicing this martial art is tantamount to suicide.

After several molts, Wang Ran's appearance is obviously much younger, and his skills are getting more and more advanced. This made Li Congjia feel the benefits of divine skills, if he could continue to practice, even if he molted once a year, it would be considered to be flat, wouldn't he be immortal?

As His Royal Highness of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Li Congjia has a lofty status and has the opportunity to become an emperor. He is also afraid of old age and death, so it would be great if he could practice his martial arts to the realm of immortality.

How could such an excellent peerless martial art not be practiced? Li Congjia was very surprised by this. Even if there will be a slight change in appearance, it will not affect the whole. This set of martial arts is not only powerful, but also easy to cultivate, why haven't you heard of it before?

Li Congjia said: "Master, is there really a dragon in this world?"

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes as a teacher a thousand years ago, not to mention a dragon, and even the stars in the sky. Wang Ran said: "At that time, being a teacher was to use the power of the whole country to find the stars, and after finding the stars, the stars were used to compose music, and the springs were used as water to make the stars into peerless wine." However, this wine can be drunk for thousands of years with just one glass. It is precisely because of this thousand years of intoxication that he has increased his skills for a hundred years, otherwise he would not be able to practice the heart devouring technique at all. ”

Wang Ran was indeed called Wang Mang before, and Zong Xin did not guess wrong. After Wang Mang fled the Han Dynasty, he ascended the throne and became the emperor. Caused the stars to fall into the mortal dust, Wang Mang didn't know how to use the stars, and checked all the thoughts and found that the drunken millennium workshop had been recorded, and the stars were composed to make peerless wine.

So Wang Mang summoned people from the thousand-year-old workshop to make wine for him, and the last celestial star was made into a pot of wine in addition to the leftovers, and people with bad alcohol could get drunk for three days after smelling it.

Everyone knows what happened later, Wang Mang defeated Liu Xiu and recaptured the Han family, killed Wang Mang in the chaos, and was finally dragged out by Liu Xiu and whipped his body.

But in fact, it was just Wang Mang's stand-in, after Wang Mang's restructuring failed, he knew that he was destined to perish, so he took the most important treasures with the intention of making a comeback.

Therefore, the Red Emperor Cave was built on Mount Tai, Wang Mang hid the Red Emperor Hook Jade in the Red Emperor statue, but he was hidden under the Red Emperor statue, and began to sleep after drinking drunk for a thousand years. I hope that I can rise again in a thousand years.

But Wang Mang was 78 years old when he drank drunk for a thousand years, he was old but his martial arts were very ordinary, fortunately, drunk for a thousand years in his sleep, he added a hundred years of skill, so he would be powerful.

After waking up, Wang Ran didn't know what to do, Wang Ran didn't adapt to the new world at all, he just slept for a while, and after thousands of years of changes outside, the whole person was in chaos.

Fortunately, Wang Ran met Li Congjia, and Li Congjia was also very curious about Wang Ran's age and martial arts, and then worshipped him as a teacher.

Wang Ran was studying the martial arts in the Heart Devouring Technique, and found that staying by Li Congjia's side suddenly had some eyebrows, and finally found that staying by Li Jing's side made faster progress. Therefore, Wang Ran was sure that the devouring method was based on the emperor's true dragon qi, so he decided to follow Li Jing's side.

Later, after Wang Ran went through a molt, he immediately felt that something was wrong. In fact, Wang Ran himself was startled for the first molt, and the living human skin was slowly peeled off like this, and the pain made him completely unprepared.

However, after molting, Wang Ran felt in excellent condition, but he couldn't continue to stay by Li Jing's side. Wang Ran's idea is very simple, whether Li Jing dies or not has nothing to do with him, and it is dangerous to stay by Li Jing's side in this state.

No matter who becomes the emperor, he will live in the palace, as long as he stays in the palace. So he and Li Congjia negotiated a side hall together, saying that he would let him retire here, and no one knew that Wang Ran was actually practicing here.

After experiencing several molts, Wang Ran suddenly looked younger. This is also just researched, it turns out that a molt can make him a year younger, and his appearance will change a little.

I don't know if it was after the first molt, a flesh horn appeared on Wang Ran's head, but the meat horn was actually not big, just two slight protrusions. But now that Wang Ran stood in front of others, the first thing everyone noticed was the bulges on his foreheads on both sides.

It was only then that Wang Ran and Li Congjia were sure that this kind of martial arts could train a person into a dragon, so they practiced very carefully. If it could really be turned into a dragon...... That's amazing. It's just that they don't know if they can turn back into humans after becoming dragons.

Of course, this set of martial arts is still being studied. Anyway, the temporary effect of this set of martial arts is that it can make people old and young, but it is a little inconvenient to grow meat horns.

Of course Li Congjia won't mind, because he has pretended to be blind all his life, and he doesn't mind taking another hat out. What's more, he didn't know when he would be able to practice to Wang Ran's level.

Wang Ran said: "Congjia, your two elder brothers have performed well recently~ But you are a person who is born with heavy pupils, and you must have the share of the emperor, so don't worry about them, the most important thing now is to protect the Southern Tang Jiangshan Sheji, as long as the throne is in your own hands, you brothers can discuss it." ”

"The disciple also thinks the same, not to mention that the disciple's personality is originally a little arrogant and not good at communicating with ordinary people, so the disciple is not suitable to be an emperor for the time being. Since the eldest brother has the heart to work hard, the disciple doesn't want to splash him with cold water. ”

"Hmm~ That's good, that's good. Wang Ran said: "The teacher feels itchy all over his body again, and it looks like he is going to molt again from tonight, if it can continue to rejuvenate the teacher, it will be great." But these few days will have to work hard for you to protect the Dharma as a teacher. ”

"The disciple obeyed. ”

This has been the case for a long time, as long as Wang Ran feels that he is about to molt, he will let Li Congjia come to his side to protect the Fa. Li Congjia watched Wang Ran molt with his own eyes every time, and the pain was by no means bearable to ordinary people, and even a top master like Wang Ran shouted heartbreakingly.

In any case, the pain is endurable. Li Congjia really doesn't mind enjoying this kind of pain once, after all, once is a year of youth, and this is what they want most.
