I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 1 After the strong man has accumulated experience, he will demonstrate his kingly power by leaps and bounds!
If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live a long and prosperous life!
Perhaps not many people can withstand the temptation of these words.

Some people spend their entire lives trying their best but still cannot reach the end.

Li Chen did nothing but sat on the dragon throne, which symbolized the throne.

More than ten years ago, Li Chen traveled to this world and became the sixth prince of the Tiance Dynasty.

As a time traveler, he still has a system, but this system got stuck when it was loaded to 99% and has been silent ever since.

Li Chen didn't care. After all, he had a very high level of comprehension, and this body's talent for cultivation was also terrifying. So he stayed in the palace to practice.

The palace must be safe, with no shortage of food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

As a prince, he naturally had many privileges. Any skills or resources could be obtained with just a word.

According to Li Chen's original plan, after he had achieved success in his cultivation, he would go to his fiefdom to live a carefree and happy life.

But who would have thought that the crown prince suddenly died a few days ago, and the old emperor fell seriously ill and was officially announced to have passed away yesterday.

The other princes have either gone to their fiefdoms or are practicing outside and have not returned yet.

Li Chen, the only prince who remained in the imperial capital, was pushed to the throne by the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother also took this opportunity to start ruling the country from behind the scenes.

Everyone can see that the Queen Mother just wants to use Li Chen as a puppet emperor so that she can control the power in the court.

Because Li Chen's mother died of illness many years ago, he did not receive the care of the old emperor since he was a child. In addition, he was a homebody and was too lazy to leave the palace. Therefore, he had no cliques in the court and his background was very clean.

This is simply the perfect puppet.

Today is the first day of the new emperor's accession to the throne, and undercurrents have long been surging in the court.

The major parties were ready to take advantage of this opportunity and use the new emperor to carry out a major purge of the court, promote their own disciples and cronies to power, and consolidate their position in the court.

But Li Chen didn't seem to care much about these, because at this moment, his system inexplicably completed loading.

A cold voice appeared in his mind.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully binding to the 'precipitation system'. This system will help the host improve his strength, accumulate strength and reach the peak of life as soon as possible! ]

When Li Chen heard this prompt, he thought to himself: Is this system trying to make people laugh?
I have already cultivated to the maximum level in this world, where do you want me to go to accumulate my knowledge and make great achievements?
Why don’t you wait until I’m almost dead before coming!

If you had activated it a few years earlier, I wouldn't have bothered to scold you.

Just as Li Chen was complaining, new prompts began to appear in the system.

[Host, please accept the novice gift package. This gift package is tailor-made for the host and can improve the host's cultivation. 】

When the system said this, Li Chen began to feel confused.

If I have not refined it wrong, it should be at the maximum level.

Since the system has appeared, it means that my current realm may not be the highest?
So he asked in his heart: "System, what is the highest level you can help me reach?"

[This system can help the host reach the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm. ]

"Then take a look at my current state."

[After checking, the host's current realm is the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm. ]

"Tell me again, what level can you raise me to?"

[This system can help the host reach the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm. ]

"Then what do I need you for?"

[This system can help the host reach the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm. ]

Li Chen: “.”

Li Chen's hanging heart finally died.

Okay, okay, I thought it was you who asked me to calm down, but after all this time it turns out it’s you who calmed down!

This sedimentation system is indeed very patient.

Just when Li Chen was stunned, the system's novice gift package had been distributed.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10 Heavenly Grade Solid Vein Pills and 1 "Nine Heavens Dragon Vein Secret". ]

Heavenly Grade Meridian Strengthening Pill: This pill is mainly made of ten thousand year old ice marrow, supplemented by nine-transformation spiritual ginseng and blue sky cloud fungus. It is prepared by the master of alchemy himself in an alchemy furnace with strong spiritual fire, using heart and blood as the guide and thoughts as the medium, and accurately controlling every subtle change of the fire power.

After taking it, the monks can stimulate their potential and greatly improve their cultivation qualifications, so that the originally mediocre monks at the bottom can also have the possibility of impacting a higher realm. Nine Heavens Dragon Vein Art: According to legend, the Dragon Vein Heavenly Venerable was above the nine heavens, observing the movement of the stars and understanding the secrets of the dragon veins, and created this supreme technique. After taking this heavenly quality pulse-strengthening pill and practicing this art, the monks' meridians can be as tough as dragon veins and their spiritual power is as vast as the sea.

Seeing these two introductions, Li Chen's mouth twitched slightly.

You may say that this system is useless. The things it provides are all top-quality in the world, elixirs and skills that hundreds of millions of cultivators in the Kaimai realm dream of. The most important thing is that they come in a complete set.

But the problem is that Li Chen has already reached the great perfection of the Saint realm, he doesn’t need these things at all.

[The current world scan is complete and tasks are being released.]

【First time entering the imperial capital.】

[Limited time mission: challenge beyond your level. ]

[After the strong have settled down, they will show their power as kings by leaping over levels! ]

[Task requirements: The host needs to defeat a cultivator in the middle stage of Kaimai Realm in the east of the imperial capital, within 14 days.]

[Penalty for failure: height reduced by 10 cm.]

"Wait, your failure penalty is a bit abstract!"

"No, I should complain about this cross-level challenge mission. I am now in the Great Perfection of Saint Realm, and you asked me to open the middle stage of Meridian Realm. I am eight major realms higher than him. Should I beat him by leaps and bounds, or should he beat me by leaps and bounds?"

After complaining for a long time, the system just went back to normal and refused to respond at all.

But the countdown for the task has already begun. If the task is not completed within 14 days, it will be a bit troublesome.

Li Chen felt that if he failed in the mission a few times, he would become a goblin.

I don’t know who came up with this immoral punishment.

But think about it carefully, if you had just come to this world and unlocked the system at a very young age.

By taking these pills and starting to practice the techniques, coupled with his own natural talent and understanding, he would be able to challenge the 'strong men' in the middle stage of Kaimai Realm within 14 days.

By then he will surely become famous in the imperial capital, be appreciated by the old emperor, and start his life of evil!
But the problem is, now that the old emperor is dead, who do you want me to find to appreciate him? Do I have to burn paper to tell the old emperor?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"

Just when Li Chen's thoughts were wandering away, the voice of the imperial doctor brought his thoughts back to the court.

Li Chen saw that all the civil and military officials were looking at him, and then he remembered that he seemed to still be the emperor.

And now, it was his first day of attending the morning court.

"What's the matter? Is the morning court over today?"

As he said that, Li Chen yawned and was about to get up and leave.

He hated waking up early the most. When he was a prince, he would sleep until he woke up naturally.

No one told him that he had to get up so early to be emperor. If he had known that, he would not have become emperor.

Li Chen's mind is now full of thoughts about getting off work early, taking a nap, and then finding time to complete the task.

This scene shocked all the civil and military officials in the court.

There had just been a fierce quarrel in the court, with various impeachments between the parties, and even all kinds of explosive information leaked, as if they were trying to kill each other.

The words were so intense that some ministers' faces turned red and they were out of breath.

Everyone thought that the new emperor was calm and composed, sitting on the dragon throne with a calm expression.

Now it seems that he was absent from duty and did not hear what the ministers were arguing about at all.

The Imperial Doctor was even more furious. In his opinion, the Sixth Prince was simply uneducated and unskillful!
The Chief Censor was responsible for supervising all officials, investigating illegal activities, and maintaining the rules and regulations of the imperial court.

He is a rare loyal minister in the court. As long as the new emperor shows his majesty and wants to consolidate his throne, he will definitely support the new emperor with all his strength.

In the hearts of these loyal ministers, they expect Li Chen to be a hidden dragon.

Now, Li Chen's performance has made the Censor extremely disappointed.

The Imperial Censor even treated Li Chen as the Sixth Prince instead of the Emperor.

In his heart, he didn't approve of Li Chen at all.

At this moment, a soft yet majestic voice came from behind the curtain.

"Since Your Majesty is tired, please return to the palace to rest for a while. I will discuss the affairs of state with the ministers."
