Ink panel: Hunting the sun and surveying the sky from the bow.

Time seemed to have lost its meaning at this moment, and Shen Qing was completely immersed in cultivation.

He was in the spiritual eye, and every breath and every flow of spiritual energy made his cultivation advance to a higher level.

The acupuncture points were connected and formed into one, just like stars. From a distance, he looked like he was bathing in the Milky Way.

I don’t know how long it had passed, but the bright light on Shen Qing’s acupuncture points gradually dissipated and everything returned to normal.

He opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in them.

Shen Qing slightly practiced the Six Paths of Reincarnation Technique and felt that his whole body had improved. The spiritual power in his body was surging like the sea, and every inch of his flesh and blood contained abundant essence.

Even his spiritual consciousness, which had not changed for a long time, showed a slight growth, which made him happy.

"The spiritual eyes here are truly extraordinary! Practicing here for just a few moments can equal the efforts I have made in a month outside!"

Shen Qing stood up and thought it over carefully.

With the blessing of the spiritual eye, the concentration of spiritual energy around here has increased sharply, almost dozens of times that of the outside world.

In the Six Paths of Reincarnation, these pure spiritual energies continued to flow into his body like a tide, and each strand contained endless vitality and power.

Shen Qing used his spiritual sense to look inward and found that the golden blood in his body's essence and blood had become stronger.

This trace of golden blood merged into his flesh and blood, making his physical achievements even more different.

Shen Qing stopped looking inward and couldn't help but cast his gaze on the jade box in front of him. Suddenly, a hint of doubt arose in his mind.

He took out the parchment scroll containing the "Great Method of the Holy Body", placed it in front of him and examined it carefully.

Shen Qing clearly remembered that the parchment also recorded the existence of golden blood.

The skill of "studying and seeking the truth" is activated again.

He began to delve deeper into the subject.

After a moment, Shen Qing suddenly realized: "So that's it."

According to the ancient sayings in this book "The Great Method of Accomplishing the Holy Body", the physique of each practitioner is different, but there is one physique that is unique from birth. The whole body is invulnerable to swords and guns, and can suppress evil spirits by nature, and is immune to all evil. It is called the Body of the Holy King.

People with this physique are born with light gold blood. The more they practice, the more their physique will change, until their blood turns dark gold.

By then, the essence of spiritual substances contained in every drop will be comparable to precious medicine.

His combat power is invincible among his peers and he is unstoppable.

This so-called Holy Body Perfection Method is a method derived from this physique.

The wisp of golden blood that appeared in Shen Qing's body was exactly the same as the records here.

In his mind, under the deduction of his academic skills, a few words suddenly emerged: "Use a mortal body to become a saint."

With the help of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Shen Qing unexpectedly condensed a trace of the characteristics of the Holy King's body.

Shen Qing was excited.

The skills derived from the ink panel are even stronger than he imagined, and may have surpassed these immortal martial arts.

The light on the fifth floor is dim, and it is impossible to distinguish between light and dark, day and night.

Shen Qing was full of energy and didn't show any sign of being tired.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, he simply continued to practice the Eight Desolate Destruction Seal, intending to use it to improve the progress of this technique.

……

At the same time, in Ningshou Palace.

A black ice jade bed exudes a faint cold light.

The Great Zhou Emperor Ji Zikong sat on it wearing a cloud brocade robe embroidered with dragon patterns. Surrounding his body were faint white ripples. Short swords in the color of silver frost kept moving on the ripples, absorbing the spiritual energy around him.

If you listen carefully, you can hear the faint sound of swords.

Beside him, the eunuch He Yong, who held the seal, had a respectful expression and a body as straight as a pine tree, standing quietly by his side.

Although his eyes never left Ji Zikong, his mind was observing Ji Zikong's every move like a mirror, always ready to deal with any possible emergency.

In a moment, Ji Zikong's breath suddenly became steady and long, and there was a sword light flashing in his eyes.

He exhaled lightly, and a streak of white flew out from his mouth, like a shocking light, suddenly illuminating the palace.

The white streaks hit the wall and naturally dispersed to both sides, causing the doors and windows to vibrate.

Seeing this, He Yong knew that the emperor had finished his training, and hurriedly stepped forward and said in a low and respectful voice: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on your improvement in cultivation."

The Great Zhou Emperor Ji Zikong has become immune to this kind of daily compliments and his face remains calm.

He asked, "Do you have anything to report recently?"

The eunuch He Yong stepped forward and said, "I have something to report."

"explain."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The eunuch He Yong bowed respectfully and continued, "Master Ji in the Royal Armory replied that the military officer who Your Majesty granted the Cuiying Order to went to the Royal Armory today."

"Oh, Shen Qing, right? How is he?" Ji Zikong said as if he had expected it: "Did he go to the fifth floor to choose immortal martial arts?"

"Your Majesty, yes."

"Which one did you choose?"

"The Great Sacred Body Formation Method."

Ji Zikong raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and said, "Saint Body Great Perfection Method? I remember that this method has been chosen by many people throughout the ages. How perfect has it been now?"

"Your Majesty, according to what Lord Ji said, it has been completed by 70% to 80%. Only the last 20% to 30% are left and people need to continue to deduce and try."

"Then I understand. Let's keep everything as it is and let Uncle Ji keep an eye on it. If nothing unexpected happens, in a few years, the royal family will probably have a third complete book of immortal methods."

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, Shen Qing has climbed up from the bottom all the way to here, he must be quite capable and talented. Isn't it a pity to let him be the one to test his talents in the royal family?" The eunuch He Yong, who was in charge of the seal, reminded him with his head down.

"There are so many talented people in the world, and we don't need one more. The main thing is that we don't have much time left. If we really wait until that day, what's the point of all the talented people in the world living well? It's better to make full use of them now, and use their remaining energy to fight for a glimmer of hope for us humans."

After saying this, Ji Zikong stood up, with his hands behind his back, his eyes looking through the heavy curtains of the palace, as if he had penetrated time and space and saw the more distant future.

The eunuch He Yong, who was in charge of the seal, quickly apologized and said, "It is because I am stupid."

Ji Zikong smiled and said, "Shen Qing was able to stand out from so many people, and at such a young age he was able to break through the Lingxu realm without relying on our martial arts resources. This shows his talent. It is really formidable for the young. With his comprehension and ability, I am afraid he will be able to master the "Sacred Body Great Completion Method" in no time."

"When the time comes, keep an eye on Uncle Ji and the others and observe the changes in him. It just so happens that he doesn't have those noble family backgrounds, so he can be used to perfect his skills and be a test subject. I hope he can hold on a little longer and not go crazy too early. If so, it can be considered a contribution to the human race in the world."

Ji Zikong's voice sounded again, with unquestionable majesty.

He thought to himself, if Shen Qing's growth rate is really so amazing, perhaps this will be a major turning point for them.

There are more and more demons now, and the situation is becoming more and more uncontrollable. I am afraid that day is getting closer and closer.

The eunuch He Yong, who held the seal, said quickly, "I obey your order."

"By the way, how is General Xue doing now? Has my order been passed on?" Ji Zikong asked as if he had thought of something. The eunuch He Yong bowed and said, "Your Majesty, your order has been passed on to General Xue, and he is expected to return to the capital in a month. General Xue mentioned a strange thing in his reply."

Ji Zikong asked curiously: "What's the matter?"

"General Xue mentioned that he discovered that not only the Huangtian sect rebels in Danzhou, but also the rebels in several other places in Jinzhou have returned to Huangtian Holy Mountain one after another. It seems that something big has happened there."

Ji Zikong's eyes revealed a bit of depression and he said, "Tell the people below to keep a close eye on it and report any disturbances to me in a timely manner."

……

After practicing for two days and two nights, Shen Qing finally ended it reluctantly.

In order to avoid suspicion from others, he spent some time practicing the "Great Method of the Holy Body" and wrote down some of his thoughts on the paper, ink, brush and inkstone.

For him who had mastered the art of studying and seeking the truth, this was a piece of cake.

Shen Qing walked out of the fifth floor of the Royal Arsenal and saw Ji Bochu basking in the sun and teasing a turtle at the door of the first floor.

He stepped forward, bowed, and called out, "Master Ji."

Ji Bochu half-closed his eyes, raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth and said: "It's Master Shen. Master Shen, did you gain anything from this practice?"

Shen Qing's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance. After brewing his emotions for a while, he showed some joy after breaking through his own limits, and said happily: "Thanks to the support of your majesty and adults, I have glimpsed some of the mysteries of the "Sacred Body Great Perfection Method" and have made some progress in my cultivation."

Ji Bochu showed a hint of joy in his eyes. He praised: "This "Sacred Body Great Accomplishment Method" is one of the most advanced martial arts in the Royal Arsenal. It is also very rare in the world. Countless people want to get a glimpse of its secrets. You can understand it this time. It is a rare opportunity. On the road of martial arts, if you don't make progress, you will regress. You have the Yiwen Cuiying Order. If you want to continue to improve in the future, you can come to this Royal Arsenal at any time."

Ji Bo's words were like a gentle spring breeze, Shen Qing replied respectfully: "I will keep it in mind, and I will definitely bother you in the future."

After saying this, Shen Qing bowed deeply again and turned to leave.

Ji Bochu still sat there, teasing the little turtle in his hand, unmoved.

However, after Shen Qing left completely, he threw the little turtle aside, turned around and went straight behind the fifth screen.

When he saw the manuscript left by Shen Qing, he nodded and said with a smile: "It seems that he really has some talent. He has found the essence of this technique in just two days. Incredible, incredible."

Ji Bo couldn't help but become more and more satisfied with Shen Qing's performance.

However, he didn't know that Shen Qing had extraordinary spiritual awareness, and Shen Qing could see every detail of his expression.

Shen Qing walked out of the palace with a gloomy face. He realized that there must be something wrong with those immortal martial arts techniques.

Thinking of this, after Shen Qing left the palace, he went straight to the Shanhaisi office to find Huangfu Rou.

"Sir Huangfu, are you free today? I just happen to need your help with something."

Huangfu Rou put down the pen in her hand, crossed her hands and rested her chin, looked at Shen Qing with interest and said, "Tell me about it and see if I can help."

Shen Qing looked around, a little hesitant on his face: "This is not the place to chat."

Huangfu Rou saw Shen Qing was serious and stood up and said, "Come with me."

She led Shen Qing to an elegant room with a table and two chairs in the room, and a pot of tea on top, steaming hot.

The two sat opposite each other.

Huangfu Rou asked: "Why, what happened?"

Shen Qing casually set up an isolation formation, which he learned from the Huangtian Sect. Now he has mastered it even more under the ink panel.

I saw an invisible ripple spreading out with him as the center, enveloping both of them and isolating the inside and the outside.

Shen Qing poured himself a cup of hot tea without any hesitation and said, "Sir Huangfu, do you know if there are any people outside the royal family who have entered the royal arsenal and learned the royal immortal martial arts?"

Shen Qing said, "I was allowed into the Royal Armory these past two days, and I was interested so I wanted to ask. I guess with the capabilities of your Shanhai Division, this shouldn't be a difficult task, right?"

"Wait for me a moment." After Huangfu Rou pondered for a while, she hurried out and returned after a while, apparently to collect intelligence.

"Have you found out?" Shen Qing looked up and asked.

Huangfu Rou shook her head and said, "No, there are almost no records in recent years."

The Shanhaisi Yamen is responsible for the exclusive intelligence duties. It can be said that no other Yamen in the Great Zhoutian knows more than them.

Especially in the capital, it is even less likely that there would be any omissions in intelligence.

However, they knew nothing about this simple information about the people who practiced immortal martial arts in the Royal Armory.

This can only mean that someone deliberately erased this part of the information.

After hearing this, Shen Qing could almost conclude that there was something wrong with those immortal martial arts techniques.

"Then I understand. Thank you very much." Shen Qing stood up and said goodbye.

Huangfu Rou watched Shen Qing coming and going in a hurry without any extra thoughts. Although she did not show any expression on her face, she secretly called Shen Qing a fool in her heart.

Seeing Shen Qing about to leave the room, she said calmly, "Shen Qing, the chrysanthemums in Beihai will bloom next month. Princess Yuzhen is going to hold a chrysanthemum appreciation meeting. Do you want to participate?"

"Most of the people attending this meeting are royal relatives and other dignitaries. They may learn something about immortal martial arts at the meeting."

Shen Qing did not notice the subtle difference in Huangfu Rou's tone. He was thinking about the immortal martial arts techniques at the moment.

After a moment of hesitation, Shen Qing agreed: "Okay."

Huangfu Rou's eyes couldn't help but reveal a smile, which curved into a crescent shape. After a moment, she seemed to realize that something was wrong, and she became serious again.

Time passes quickly like running water.

Fifteen days passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Shen Qing basically lived a life between two points, traveling back and forth between the royal armory and the government office.

Most of the time was spent in the Royal Arsenal.

During this period of practice, the two skills of Six Paths of Reincarnation and Eight Desolations Destruction Seal were improved at an extremely fast speed.

Shen Qing's consciousness moved, and he summoned the ink panel.

The familiar interface reappeared in his sight, with lines of ink text appearing.

[Skill: Six Paths of Reincarnation (Beginner's Guide)]

[Progress: 5004/5000 points]

[Status: Breakthrough]

[Skill: Eight Desolate Dao Destruction Seal (Entry Level)]

[Progress: 5001/5000 points]

[Status: Breakthrough]

Shen Qing looked at the striking reminder that reappeared in his sight, and a hint of relief appeared on his face.

"Breakthrough." (End of this chapter)
