Chapter 4 Three Years
With the [Five Ghosts Seeking Destiny Technique], the academy can always be kept clean.
Li Changqing cultivates every day, reads books, and improves himself.
He is now at the first level of the Innate Realm, the Void Pill Realm.
Next, he has to break through the Yuan Dan and Jin Dan in order to reach the realm of his predecessor's cultivation, not to mention the realm of the grandmaster behind him.
On the road of cultivation, Li Changqing has a long way to go.
However, he was not in a hurry, and practiced step by step.
Reading books every day, Li Changqing also discovered the law, not every book can stimulate prompts and get benefits.
Some books don't get hints even after reading them, but some books appear at the first glance.
Li Changqing can only fight luck.
But fortunately, every book he reads has knowledge absorption, increasing his own experience, and a comprehensive understanding of the world.
"This is a world where the wind of cultivation prevails, the human dynasty, the top sects, the sects that have been inherited for thousands of years, Taoism, Buddhism, demons, overseas forces, the wilderness of Saibei, are entangled and jointly build a bizarre world."
"The Tang Dynasty has been established for three hundred years, and it has gone from the prosperous era of cooking oil to the end of the imperial dynasty, the territory seems to be huge, but the feudal kings in various places are divided, and there are sects like Taishang Dao lying on the Tang Dynasty to suck blood."
"Datang needs reform, and its predecessor was a radical reformer, so many people don't want him to ascend the throne."
"The fact that the predecessor was abolished is because his ideas are very unfavorable to the Taishang Dao."
Recalling this incident now, Li Changqing cleared his thoughts.
The Tang Emperor wanted Li Changqing to ascend the throne, and then reform the Tang Dynasty, deal with the sect, suppress the vassal king, and rejuvenate the royal family.
But the vassal kings didn't want it, and neither did the Taishang Dao.
That's why there was a saintess who was too high, and she personally made the game, and then some civil and military ministers cooperated with the acting, and abolished Li Changqing in a grand manner.
The Tang Emperor is already old, and his efforts to maintain the decaying Tang Dynasty have exhausted his mental strength, and Li Changqing's matter is a foregone conclusion, he can only suffer a dumb loss, and his face is pale to save Li Changqing's life, and he is imprisoned in the Royal Academy.
Emperor Tang hoped that Li Changqing could study and live a leisurely life for the rest of his life.
Li Changqing only figured it out now.
"Taishang Dao is now too big to lose, those vassal kings are also accumulating strength, the Tang Emperor is already old and unable to reform, these things must be done by the new emperor."
"The predecessor was supposed to be the new emperor, so he was deposed."
"Now that the crown prince is undecided, the major princes are competing for the law, but they don't know that Datang has been in turmoil, and if you are not careful, you will never recover."
"Emperor Tang will definitely not choose to dance happily now, he will definitely choose a prince who has ideas and ability to reform."
Li Changqing carefully analyzed, looking at the essence through the fog, if the successor chosen by the Tang Emperor was incapable, the Tang Dynasty would fall apart in an instant.
His current comfortable life will also be affected.
"But I'm imprisoned here now, I can only work hard to improve myself, and the problems of the Tang Dynasty will be left to the next Tang Emperor to worry about." Li Changqing said with emotion.
Now living in seclusion in the academy, reading books and practicing every day, Li Changqing is very satisfied.
If Datang really inevitably falls apart, then he can only work hard to improve himself.
"Now that I'm only in the innate realm, I need to become stronger." Li Changqing muttered.
He's going to keep getting stronger.
The books in this academy are the opportunity for him to become stronger.
……
Time flies, and three years have passed.
In the past three years, Li Changqing has been quietly studying, practicing, and improving himself.
He didn't go anywhere in the academy, he just read and practiced every day, and his time was well allocated.
In the past three years, I have received a lot of rewards for studying.
[You have read the Diamond Sutra, and you have realized that the Diamond is not bad. 】
[You have read the Analects, you have comprehended the Haoran righteousness, you have practiced seriously, and the Haoran righteousness has been elevated to the purple qi for three thousand miles. 】
[You have read the Dizang Sutra, you have comprehended the Dafa of Dizang, and your cultivation has been promoted to the Innate Yuan Dan. 】
[You read the biography of a swordsman, and you comprehended the art of slashing the sky and drawing a sword. 】
In the past three years, Li Changqing has not comprehended a lot, but every comprehension is an extremely profound exercise.
[Purple Qi Three Thousand Miles] This is a sign that the sage Lao Tzu only had when he sent a letter to Guguan, which is extremely terrifying and mighty.
The [Dizang Dafa] and the [Eighteen Towns Prison Strength] that Li Changqing had comprehended before complemented each other, and their power was several times greater out of thin air.
[King Kong is not bad] and [Heaven Cutting Sword Drawing Technique], one attack and one defense, make Li Changqing invincible.
In the past three years, Li Changqing has never given up his cultivation, and he has directly ascended from the Innate Void Pill to the Grandmaster realm.
The predecessor had practiced for more than ten years before it was only in the innate Jindan realm, and it only took Li Changqing three years to ascend to the grandmaster realm.
This is still because he didn't deliberately force himself to improve his cultivation, most of the time he spent reading, and part of the time he was practicing to obtain the exercises, and the realm came naturally, and he broke through if he could.
If he put all his mind on cultivation, he would be able to break through to the Grandmaster realm in those two years.
But it was too boring, and Li Changqing didn't like it.
In the past three years, Li Changqing has read a lot of books, has a deeper understanding of the world, and has a sufficient understanding of cultivation.
In the past three years, Li Changqing has not deliberately inquired about the outside world, and he only knows some things through Li Xian'er's story.
But there is very little news that Li Xian'er can inquire about in the harem, so he is not very clear about what the Tang Dynasty is doing now.
In the past three years, except for Li Xian'er, who came to deliver food every few days, no one else has come once, and everyone seems to have forgotten Li Changqing.
He was also happy to be like this, staying quietly in the academy, studying, practicing, and becoming stronger.
……
On this day, Li Xian'er came again.
Three years later, she also grew into a big girl.
Sixteen-year-old Li Xian'er is slim, with snow-white skin and beautiful appearance, like the most delicate flower blooming.
In the academy, the brother and sister sat together.
Li Changqing drank wine, ate vegetables, and was calm.
Li Xian'er was chattering about some trivial things, she had no one to express in the palace, so she could only accumulate what she wanted to say, and then pour it out after seeing her brother.
Li Changqing is a good listener, and when Li Xian'er said that she was tired, she poured a cup of tea and handed it over.
Li Xian'er smiled coquettishly, took the tea and drank it, and suddenly said, "Brother, the battle for the crown prince is coming to an end." ”
Li Changqing's drinking action paused.
The battle for the crown prince's throne...... Isn't it over yet?
It's been three years.
He put down his glass and asked softly, "Who won?" ”
Li Xian'er smiled: "Brother guess? ”
Li Changqing recalled the princes in his mind.
"The eldest prince is old, exclude."
"The second prince is naturally arrogant and lascivious, exclude."
"The three princes are inherently unlikable, and they are excluded."
"The four princes are myself, exclude."
"The fifth prince, he is obsessed with cultivation and is not interested in the throne, exclude."
"Six princes, it's too stupid, exclude."
"Seventh prince, too cowardly, exclude."
Li Changqing excluded them one by one, and when he waited for the future, he couldn't think of anyone else who could become the new crown prince.
He looked at Li Xian'er with a puzzled expression.
Li Xian'er said in a low voice: "It's the eighteenth prince, Li Chang'an." ”
Li Changqing was surprised: "Is it him?" ”
In his memory, there was a young man who was not valued since he was a child, and would only follow Li Changqing and call him the imperial brother.
Unlike Li Xian'er, he is the same father and mother as Li Changqing.
But like Li Xian'er, his mother died in childbirth, and he was lonely in the harem.
Li Changqing often went to see Li Xian'er at that time, and took care of him by the way, and the three of them were the most familiar with the entire Li Tang royal family.
"Didn't Li Changan be taken away by an old Taoist priest to practice after he was ten years old?" Li Changqing rummaged through his memories and asked.
"Yes, when he returned to Chang'an three months ago, he was taken by his father's side, familiar with the government and inseparable, and now everyone can see that his father wants to set him up." Li Xian'er said.
"The kid who followed my brother back then is now going to become the prince of the Tang Dynasty, I didn't expect it to be him." Li Xian'er sighed.
Li Changqing nodded, he didn't expect it.
