In 2020 AD, in the Ganquan Space Launch Test Base on the Star Continent, Shi Xiaoling was lying quietly in the sealed cabin of a time shuttle, waiting for the countdown to launch.

In a few minutes, he will travel back to the Bright Moon Continent two thousand years ago, what kind of scene will be there, what will happen, whether he can successfully find and bring back the "Nine Yuan Customs Clearance" diagram, and complete the glorious task given to him by the Great Leader, Shi Xiaoling has no bottom in his heart.

He didn't even know what Lu Dao was for, and he would eventually be selected to carry out this sensational "National Longevity Improvement Plan".

Twenty-seven-year-old Shi Xiaoling was just an ordinary librarian in the Capital Library of the Star Continent a year ago, and he looked like he was only in his early twenties because he usually liked to do sports.

He came from an ordinary background, his parents were ordinary teachers, and he had a good-natured sister, and his family relationship was simple and harmonious.

Shi Xiaoling thinks he is a smart person, but he is not very sociable, let alone camping. In today's materialistic world of the Star Continent, whether it is work or love, he has suffered repeated setbacks, and the only thing that makes him feel a little comforted is that his health is not bad.

It is important to know that the air, soil, and water resources of the Xingchen Continent have been deteriorating day by day over the past hundred years, the physical fitness of the people has deteriorated, the life expectancy has been decreasing day by day, and many people have some chronic diseases to a greater or lesser extent.

Shi Xiaoling grew up in a family that was not wealthy, but it was rare that he could always maintain a relatively healthy and strong body.

Although Shi Xiaoling is good-looking, he is just a librarian with a low salary, he can't see any opportunities for promotion and fortune at work, and he doesn't have any family background at home.

His parents would often urge Shi Xiaoling to fall in love and start a family as soon as possible, which made him occasionally a little annoyed.

Since his student days, Shi Xiaoling has always been a fitness enthusiast, and one of his hobbies is collecting and studying various ancient fighting techniques. He rarely went out to have fun with his peers, and whenever he had time, he would always hide in his small room and practice these so-called ancient martial arts skills.

Of course, Shi Xiaoling has not become famous except for his physique being stronger than ordinary people, but he doesn't care much, it's just his personal hobby, and he can always get fun from this hobby.

Shi Xiaoling did not collect and study these ancient martial arts for the purpose of fighting people, although his body was healthier and stronger than the average person, his temperament was mild, and he was never a strong and aggressive person.

Shi Xiaoling's classmates, colleagues and even family members didn't understand his personal hobbies and felt that he was wasting time in Lang. In such a developed modern civilized society, what is the point of learning and studying those ancient martial arts that are difficult to distinguish between true and false?

What's more, Shi Xiaoling's innate conditions are not too good, he does not have particularly outstanding strength, bounce and explosiveness, although he has participated in several amateur fighting tournaments, the results have ended in fiasco.

Both his parents and sister persuaded Shi Xiaoling to give up his hobbies, find another promising job while he was young, and strive to buy a house and a car as soon as possible, and then he could marry a wife and have children, and live his life as a small citizen in peace.

Although Shi Xiaoling was a little troubled by this, fortunately, he could always get pleasure from his hobbies, and whenever he immersed himself in the wonderful world of those ancient martial arts he had collected, he could always quickly forget all his troubles.

Although he is not too young, Shi Xiaoling often fantasizes that one day he can truly practice some kind of martial arts that has been handed down from ancient times and become a person with superpowers.

Of course, Shi Xiaoling also knew that his thoughts were like a daydream, but he was always happy to do it.

In order not to be ridiculed by his parents and sister, he did not tell them what he really thought, but only said that martial arts training was part of his fitness plan, and even this time he secretly signed up for the audition of the "National Life Improvement Plan" from his family.

Shi Xiaoling himself is also half-aware of the ins and outs of this "plan to improve the life expectancy of the people", but through some propaganda in the media, he knows that this plan was originally initiated and formulated by the great head of state himself ten years ago, with the aim of obtaining some kind of secret that can make all citizens live longer and even live forever.

Initially, the project was only selected from among the elites of the military and police bodies, and after layers of screening, the final finalists will be entrusted with the important task of traveling through time and space to carry out this great plan.

Ten years ago, when the media first disclosed and reported on the finalists of this plan, they repeatedly introduced how the talents, IQs, and physical abilities of these shortlisted elites were outstanding, and gave them the code name of "Changsheng XX", and praised these people as heroic idols.

It seems that with them, it will not be a problem to implement and complete this "National Life Expectancy Improvement Plan", as if all the citizens of the Star Continent will have the opportunity to live forever in a short time.

However, a few years later, the once glorious "Changsheng No. and So" have long since disappeared, whether they have successfully crossed over to a certain time and space? Whether they have completed their mission? The common people do not know, and all the media controlled by the government have also been secretive about this and have stopped following up on it, and the once sensational "national life improvement plan" seems to have gradually been forgotten.

It was only this year that the government suddenly re-published the news in the major media and broadcast relevant advertisements to recruit young people with outstanding physical fitness and intelligence among the common people to sign up for the "National Life Expectancy Improvement Program" audition training, hoping to find suitable candidates from among them and restart the implementation of this great program.

Because the government promised that the finalists of the program would receive extremely high bonuses and lifelong benefits from the government, the young people in the Xingchen Continent, who had been in economic recession for many years, were quite excited, and everyone enthusiastically signed up, hoping to take advantage of this rare opportunity to get ahead.

It is said that if you can become one of the last 10,000 finalists in this great "National Life Improvement Project", you will receive an income equivalent to 10 times the salary of ordinary people, and if you can finally stand out as the top 10 finalists after a year of training, you will basically not have to worry about not being able to afford a house or a car.

If a person can become the ultimate implementer of the plan, not only will he receive a generous bonus, but also his family will enjoy the highest level of welfare protection from the government.

Due to the economic downturn, inflation, and high unemployment, ordinary people on the Star Continent have had a difficult life in recent years, and this news immediately caused a sensation as soon as it was disclosed by the media. Young men and women who feel that they are in good health and have a reliable IQ have enthusiastically joined the audition of the "National Longevity Improvement Program", hoping to improve the economic situation of themselves and their families in one fell swoop.

Shi Xiaoling was also one of the tens of millions of applicants, but his original intention was slightly different from everyone. Of course, he wanted to get ahead, but what attracted him more than the tempting economic conditions was the plan's promise of special training in ancient martial arts for the last 10,000 finalists.

This promise made Jiang Ziya quite moved. Although he has collected and studied various ancient martial arts since he was a student, and many of the routines and techniques have even been memorized, it is not the same thing at all when he actually practices them, and he cannot exert the power that those martial arts legends should have.

The reason for this is simply that he does not have enough True Yuan Energy in his body. And almost all ancient martial arts techniques require the practitioner to have a profound true element.

The so-called true element, in Shi Xiaoling's understanding is the special energy inherent in the body, but unfortunately this kind of true element seems to only exist in fantasy novels, although Shi Xiaoling has a strong physique, insists on fitness and practicing fighting all year round, but he can't practice the so-called true element at all.

This made Shi Xiaoling, who was obsessed with ancient martial arts, quite disappointed, although he never gave up, but no matter how hard he tried, he was always unable to let the so-called true yuan energy accumulate and grow in his body.

This time, when he heard that the "National Life Expectancy Improvement Plan" would conduct special training for the finalists in this regard, Shi Xiaoling almost did not hesitate to sign up.

Not to mention that if he succeeds, he will have the opportunity to get ahead and seek permanent benefits for his family, just by being able to solve the problem about ancient martial arts in his heart, Shi Xiaoling already feels that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Although Shi Xiaoling is just an ordinary librarian, he usually works out of work and fitness, which is incompatible with the modern urban life in the capital, but he has never felt that he is stupider than others, and he is quite confident in his physical fitness.

With his love and desire for ancient martial arts, he signed up, and then, he was really shortlisted.

When Shi Xiaoling received the shortlisting notice from the National Life Expectancy Improvement Committee, the excitement was indescribable. For the first time in his life, Shi Xiaoling, who had been living an ordinary life, felt the ecstasy of success.

Although it was clearly written on the notice that his ranking was nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, that is, the penultimate one, he was finally shortlisted, and he could finally have the opportunity to learn the real ancient martial arts, which made Shi Xiaoling excited for several days.

Parents and sister learned that Shi Xiaoling was shortlisted for the "National Longevity Improvement Plan", and they were also very happy for him, this silly boy has been practicing stupidly for so many years, maybe there is finally a chance to show him his strengths.

Although they did not expect Shi Xiaoling to become famous in one fell swoop and become the winner of the "National Life Improvement Plan", as long as he was shortlisted, his training allowance for at least one year would be ten times his salary as a librarian.

"It's better to let him see the world than to spend all day in the library or at home stupidly studying some ancient martial arts. Shi Xiaoling's parents and sister thought so.

With the support and expectation of his family, Shi Xiaoling happily packed up and went to the remote Ganquan Prefecture alone to participate in the secret special training of the "National Life Improvement Plan".
