My Cultivation Starting from Archery

In the fortieth year of Yuanxi, Prince Tang, Cao Kai, was accused of having an affair with the concubine in the palace, spared from capital punishment but banished to guard the border in Beiliang.

In the same year, the barbarian army invaded.

Cao Kai and Sun Xiangzong achieved a great deal with less, making a name for themselves at the border.

In the forty-second year of Yuanxi,...

...

Scene after scene, moment after moment.

A hundred years of spring and autumn, passing like smoke!

A hundred years of rise and fall, passing as if in a dream!

Now.

Cao Kai is already one hundred and nine years old!

After ascending the throne.

Through the Ancestral Affairs Office, he encountered more stories about the Grand Ancestor Cao Xie, so he began seeking immortality and enlightenment, coincidentally obtaining Immortal Law when the Heavenly Gate opened fifty years ago.

But meanwhile.

He also felt the crisis, the insignificance, the...

unease!

If one day.

The seal is lifted.

Immortals swarm Eastern Continent.

What will the people do?

What will the Cao Family Imperial Family do?

From this.

Cao Kai's resolution deepened, vowing to pursue immortality.

He has a Heavenly Grade Spiritual Root, in the Cultivation World, with enough resources, not just Golden Core, but achieving Nascent Soul is highly possible.

But, unfortunately, Spiritual Energy is extremely scarce in heaven and earth.

Twenty years have passed and still at Early-stage Qi Refining.

Even worse,

due to Cao Kai's diligent governance, exhausting his Qi-Blood day and night, alongside improper early-stage cultivation damaging meridians, his lifespan greatly shortened, death approaching closer.

He, is unwilling!

His grand ambition, is to be a monarch of the ages, to cut down the so-called "Immortals" who once humiliated him, to ensure Great Sheng Dynasty's eternal legacy, to become...

Emperor Wan Shou!

Why, must he, such a wise ruler, die young?!

Thus.

The pursuit of immortality and enlightenment became more urgent.

Almost, at any cost.

Finally, today has arrived.

Foundation Establishment is imminent, conflict arises again!

Treachery and rebellion, stirring chaos throughout the empire!

That Chen Sansi, wasted cultivation, incredibly immature, quite laughable!

Talking about slaying Immortals and purging traitors.

How does he know whether these things were his original intention to accomplish!

This world.

Only he can achieve this!

National Guardian Seal!

This seal, suppresses the fate of heaven and earth, inherited by generations of Eastern Continent human emperors, refined by Grand Ancestor Cao Xie.

Holding this Jade Seal, one can defy Heaven and Earth Seal!

Coupled with Dragon Abyss Sword.

When cultivators of Sky Water Continent want to interfere in Eastern Continent affairs, they must first heed his commands!

He.

Is the guardian of these lands, these mountains, and the protector of all people!

Chen Sansi's immature actions nearly ruined the grand plan!

Fortunately...

It all ended!

As the life stories unfold one by one, Cao Kai's resolution became increasingly unshakable.

Accompanied by the last wisp of Spiritual Energy entering his body, the Fuling Taiqing Heavenly Treasure Tree completely withered.

Simultaneously.

The cloud sea within Cao Kai's Dantian gathered towards the golden light at incredible speed, becoming a vortex capable of devouring everything, gathering all power, compressing into a singularity, until the final trace of Magic Fog merged into golden light, the originally tumultuous Dantian suddenly calmed, only a cluster of golden light slowly descended, turning into a pond of shining spirit light within the Dantian.

Foundation Establishment, succeeded!

The mana condensed by Qi Refining cultivators within the Dantian is referred to as Magic Fog.

The mana condensed by Foundation Establishment cultivators within the Dantian is referred to as Magic Sea!

Magic Fog transformed into Magic Sea signifies successful Foundation Establishment!

Emperor Longqing abruptly opened his dragon eyes, then cast a spell, his entire being piercing through the stone of the tomb chamber, carrying golden light into the sky.

Within the Imperial Mausoleum.

A gathering of Death Guards and eunuchs cultivating Incense Fire Divine Dao.

"..."

Upon witnessing this scene, Huang Hong first paused, then his face showed uncontrollable reverence and joy, leading the kneel in greeting, loudly celebrating: "Welcome, Your Majesty, from seclusion!

"Congratulations on Your Majesty's successful Foundation Establishment!

"Emperor of Dasheng, Emperor Wan Shou, live long and prosper, eternity!!!"

The chorus echoed, shaking the mountains and fields.

After experiencing the surge of mana and the increase of a hundred years in lifespan, Emperor Longqing descended gracefully from the heavens back to the earth, with an air of immortality and divine presence.

"One cycle of sixty years has passed, and indeed, Heaven does not disappoint the determined."

With one hand on the horsetail whisk, his expression was still as calm as a lake, without losing his composure from the breakthrough, and he spoke in a deep voice: "How is the battle at Chibi?"

After the battle of Qiantang Prefecture.

Kunlun Mountain was no longer safe.

Emperor Longqing then retreated to cultivate at the Imperial Mausoleum outside the Capital City, taking a Fasting Pill and entering secluded cultivation, unaware of the happenings outside, and only remembered the appointment of a young man named Zhou Rong in the court.

"Chibi?"

Ritual Supervision Chamberlain eunuch Huang Hong was momentarily speechless, opening his mouth as if to say something, but was unable to speak.

"What?"

Emperor Longqing said unsurprisingly: "Defeated at Chibi?"

"Your Majesty's strategic planning is unmatched, indeed it was a defeat, but..."

Huang Hong stammered, unable to complete his sentence.

Emperor Longqing squinted his eyes and urged: "But what?"

"But the defeat at Chibi happened a long time ago."

Huang Hong's forehead was pressed against the ground, daring not to meet the Emperor's eyes: "Now Chen Sansi and King Jin have gathered an army of two hundred thousand, and have reached Yu State at Fei River."

Crossing Fei River.

They could reach the Capital City directly!

"..."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Longqing's previously unperturbed demeanor finally changed, his voice somewhat restrained: "Bring me the maps and reports of the current battlefield."

"Yes!"

In no time at all.

A giant map was unfurled by several eunuchs.

Moreover, Death Guards read out the accumulated battle reports one by one.

What?

After months of secluded cultivation, they have reached the Capital City?!

Emperor Longqing's expression grew more somber.

Great Sheng territory, one capital and thirty-six states.

In just two years.

It turned out...

Only three states remained!

Essentially on the brink of the nation's fall!

"This servant is incompetent! Your Majesty, please remain calm!"

Huang Hong quickly explained: "Don't worry, Your Majesty! The rebels will definitely not reach the Capital City!

"Dan Liangcheng, the Immortal Master, has gathered a million troops at Fei River, and Prince Qin personally leads the civil and military officials at the front, encircling the rebels firmly in Kunyang City!

"Recently.

"Dan Liangcheng, the Immortal Master, has repeatedly used the strategies 'besiege but leave gaps' and 'division strategy', greatly defeating the rebels, just recently!"

"..."

Emperor Longqing gazed at the northern sky: "I indeed underestimated Chen Sansi."

"Your Majesty, have faith!"

Huang Hong continued: "With the Ling Family's Ancestor, at True Power Middle Stage, standing guard, Chen Sansi does not dare to leave the city!"

"Enough, relying on anyone else is useless."

Emperor Longqing paused: "Gather all the remaining Forbidden Army, Jinyi Guard, and West Factory personnel in the Capital City and follow me to the front line. I shall lead the charge personally."

With the cultivation honed over the years, combined with Heavenly Talent, dealing with someone at True Power Early Stage shouldn't be a significant problem, the only concern is...

that the traitor surnamed Chen is likely on the verge of a breakthrough too.

Since going, one must be fully prepared.

The world.

Should be at peace!

"Buzz!"

Emperor Longqing raised his palm, and a spirit light descended from the mausoleum into his palm. As the glow dissipated, upon closer inspection, it was a jade seal of emerald color.

National Guardian Seal!

This seal is four inches square, entirely green jade, with no runes on its surface, yet still shimmering with bright golden light, the top interlocked with five dragons, surrounding repetitive patterns, and the bottom inscribed with eight large characters.

"Bestowed by Heaven, longevity and prosperity!"

The Human Emperor of Eastern Continent, with this jade seal, fears neither Heaven nor Earth!

"Buzz——"

Dragon's roar resounded.

Another spirit light fell into Emperor Longqing's hand, the Dragon Abyss Treasure Sword.

Holding this sword.

Is like grasping the True Dragon!

Thousands of years ago, master swordsmith Ouyang Qing dug into Heavenly Sword Mountain, releasing a thousand-year-old ice stream, channeling the water containing spiritual energy to the sword casting furnace. He crafted seven cold pools following the sequence of the Big Dipper's Heavenly Phenomenon, thus named "Seven Stars."

At this moment.

Under the gaze of numerous eunuchs, merely glancing at the sword's ridge, one feels as if standing atop a peak gazing down into an abyss, deep and unfathomable, capturing the soul, as if a giant dragon lies within, ready to soar into the skies at any moment.

This is, "Dragon Abyss."

The full name of this sword is Seven Stars Dragon Abyss Sword.

It still possesses the Grand Ancestor's legacy, which is Emperor Longqing's ultimate trump card.

Finally, he reached into his sleeve to retrieve a wooden box, opening it to reveal a blood-red pill.

After checking, ensuring everything is perfect.

Emperor Longqing waved his hand to return all the items to his sleeve, then summoned a gigantic immortal crane, ascending into the skies amidst its sharp cry, straight towards...

Kunyang City!
