My Cultivation Starting from Archery

[Magic: Sword Qi Skill (small achievement)]

[Progress: 405/2000]

Last time, the Incense Fire Divine Sect gave quite a lot of incense, but it only increased by a quarter. To cultivate to Great Success, either spiritual energy is needed, or a large amount of incense is still necessary.

And then there’s the white Mystical Energy.

The battle at Hulaoguan.

Chen Sansi used up all the accumulated Mystical Energy in one go.

Result.

The overwhelming victory of three thousand against one hundred thousand didn’t even manage to replenish the Mystical Energy in one go.

"Is replenishing Mystical Energy not just about winning battles?"

"..."

Luckily.

The white Mystical Energy wasn’t completely depleted, and it was still slowly recovering and accumulating.

These treasures from the Immortal Realm are truly inscrutable.

As long as they work, it’s all good.

Chen Sansi had secluded himself for half a month and was somewhat tired, so he had his men open the manor gates to receive some guests.

A month passed.

Officials from the Capital City kept arriving in droves, many of whom came to visit him.

Including the local elite, they frequently requested an audience.

Everyone knew.

After the ceremony at Ziwei Mountain, this young general would become a highly influential figure in the imperial court.

"Tell the local sects and the surrendered officials that those who want to connect with me should offer money and food, those who offer enough food can be considered friends of mine, Chen Sansi, and I will find time to attend their banquets," he said.

"Yes, Mr. Chen!"

Those who came early were mostly fringe officials.

The place would become even busier soon.

It was said that several other princes would also come over.

The Fourth Prince, Eighth Prince, and the Twelfth Prince, who was the youngest but had martial arts talent comparable to Prince Zhen Nan, and so on.

After a few more days of leisure.

Chen Sansi received another task.

He and his men, before the arrival of His Majesty the Emperor, along with the Crown Prince’s Hu Ben Army, were responsible for managing Ziwei Mountain and not allowing unrelated persons to approach until the official start of the grand ceremony.

This task should initially have been the responsibility of the Imperial Guard.

But they hadn’t arrived yet.

So it was temporarily handled by the Xuanjia Army and the Hu Ben Army who had also come from the Capital City.

Ziwei Mountain!

Legend has it that 8,000 years ago, the Purple Emperor Star descended from heaven and transformed into a giant peak at this place. Since then, emperors of each generation have held their ascension ceremonies here, and only those who have been enshrined here can be considered legitimate emperors, a recognition of their status, as the saying "mandated by heaven with eternal prosperity" goes.

Thus.

The loss of three states was a severe humiliation for Dasheng.

Because in some sense, Dongqing became the real "Heavenly Son," especially since the National Seal was still in Dasheng’s hands; otherwise, the title would truly be unjustified.

"Mr. Chen!"

"There is a very strange invitation here, it’s... from an Oiran house."

Zhao Kang said, "It seems to be from the largest Oiran house in the area, and their Oiran wants to invite you over."

"Have you lost your mind!"

Liu Jinkui scolded, "An Oiran house worthy of cozying up to Mr. Chen? Next time, don’t bring this kind of invitation inside, just throw it away—"

"Give it to me."

Chen Sansi said indifferently.

"..."

Liu Jinkui’s face flushed with embarrassment.

After the two handed over the invitation, they hurriedly retreated.

"Old Liu, are you out of your mind? I knew Mr. Chen liked this sort of thing, so I specifically picked it out," Zhao Kang said.

"This... I didn’t expect that either."

"It’s said that the Oiran of the Yunxiu Building in the area is exceptional."

"The battles are over now, and Mr. Chen should indulge a bit too. Have you ever seen him idle? Every time you see him, he’s either holding a long spear or a bow, quite intimidating."

"Why not buy a few beauties and offer them to Mr. Chen?"

"What do you know? You have to personally go to the brothel to get that kind of atmosphere, understand?"

"..."

Chen Sansi watched their muttering figures leaving without saying anything.

He opened the invitation.

Judging by the tone of the message, it was from the Seeking Immortal Tower as expected.

Nine times out of ten, it was related to the follow-up actions of the Incense Fire Divine Sect.

"Might as well have a look."

Chen Sansi wasn’t exactly friends with the Seeking Immortal Tower but rather partners in exchange. Read new adventures at NovelBin.Côm

He informed a knowledgeable senior brother and headed to the Yunxiu Building that very night, bypassing the complicated procedures like those at the Red Sleeve Tower, instead being led directly through the back door and upstairs.

After pushing open the door.

The person inside was not the Oiran of this place but a man.

A middle-aged man in a plain robe with a pale complexion and short beard, his presence profound, and most crucially, his body was flowing with clear spiritual energy, stronger than Ning Xiang, possibly already initiated into the path.

Before Chen Sansi could speak.

The middle-aged man stood to greet him: "Mr. Chen, I have long admired you! My name is Liao Shizhong, and I’m with the Seeking Immortal Tower; thank you for your assistance!"

"Oh?"

Chen Sansi questioned, "Senior Liao, what do you mean by that?"

"Mr. Chen, do you still remember—"

Liao Shizhong dragged his tone, "the broken grass you found in the Luotian Mountain Range?"

"Broken grass?"

Chen Sansi certainly remembered that incident.

It seems that the broken grass was used to heal this man.

His hunting skills hadn’t grown rusty; using his insight, he noticed that this man had changed his appearance and used a fake identity, although the disguise wasn’t sophisticated, it was obvious the beard was glued on.

The man’s voice was a bit high-pitched, and his demeanor was very much like Mr. Hou, the eunuch from the palace.

An eunuch from the palace?

The Seeking Immortal Tower even had people hidden within the imperial court.

He responded calmly, "Senior Liao, you needn’t thank me; my dealings with the Seeking Immortal Tower are merely transactions, there are no favors owed between us. May I know the reason for calling me here today? Is there something urgent?"

"Indeed, there is."
