My Cultivation Starting from Archery

His main focus was on alchemy.

The Second-tier Elixir "Nine Li Pill," which involves profound transformations far exceeding that of the First Rank, boasts a complexity of over five hundred variations.

Even Chen Sansi wasted seven or eight sets of materials before successfully refining it, but after that, the success rate greatly improved, and the ones produced were all of superior quality, without a single inferior pill.

The Nine Li Pill is specially prepared for Foundation Establishment cultivators; it is hard for him to digest, so he mainly consumes the First Rank Green Wave Pill, using the Nine Li Pill for sale.

The cost price of each elixir is sixty spirit stones, sold for one hundred twenty, making a profit of double.

Besides this.

Chen Sansi also refined another Second-tier Elixir—the Fixed Color Pill.

Just the cost of materials for this elixir is as high as five hundred spirit stones per pill, with a selling price reaching an astonishing one thousand two hundred spirit stones.

For the vast majority of loose cultivators, this price is exceedingly expensive, and they simply cannot afford to waste cultivation resources on mere appearance.

The most challenging aspect lies in the quality of the Fixed Color Pill, which will affect the result, and this type of elixir cannot be easily distinguished between good and superior quality before consumption, and each person can only consume one in their lifetime.

If it's of good quality, it can only maintain youthful appearance for a period.

Only the superior quality can ensure eternal youth.

Therefore, even in large sects, cultivators with aged appearances can be found.

Fortunately, Chen Sansi has "[Everything Produced is Superior]," and does not have to worry about this issue.

These two Fixed Color Pills are naturally prepared for the Empress and the Imperial Concubine.

They cannot cultivate.

What Chen Sansi can do is ensure their eternal youth.

The time has come to return.

This journey lasted about three months.

After all, he is a monarch of a country, with many state affairs to handle, and dares not leave for too long, otherwise, he would be letting everyone down.

This issue is a problem that needs resolving in the future.

Gathering his thoughts, Chen Sansi hung a seclusion sign at the entrance of his cave mansion to decline visitors, then under the cover of night, left the cave mansion, heading to the border of the Sky Water Continent, using the Jade Token to summon a hidden transmission array, departing this realm, journeying north back to the Han Dynasty.

Qinghua Palace.

The Han Dynasty has three palaces, namely the Great Ming Palace, Sky Wall City, and Qinghua Palace.

The Great Ming Palace mainly deals with state affairs, Sky Wall City serves as a cultivation ground, being transformed into a sect area, while Qinghua Palace is the harem in the Capital City, also the emperor's sleeping quarters.

In the harem,

Chen San no longer increased the number of eunuchs, merely selecting some young ones not yet sworn to allegiance to the former dynasty for training.

However, more female officials are added to manage the harem, as women can also engage in martial arts and cultivation, hence there is no need to worry about safety issues.

Today, although the world is indeed stable.

Yet Chen Sansi is very busy, usually having little time to spend with his family.

This time upon returning, he immediately spent three days dealing with state affairs, only by the fourth day was he free to return to the harem and gather family for a meal.

"Your concubine greets Your Majesty!"

The Empress and the Imperial Concubine stood on both sides, bending in salute.

"Sister Lan, Senior Sister, what's the need for such formalities?"

Chen Sansi smiled and said: "Putting on airs outside is to maintain the court's prestige, doing so at home is exhausting! Everyone, please sit down quickly, I have something to give you."

The Empress and the Imperial Concubine looked at the gold-glinting elixirs in the box, somewhat puzzled.

"This is the Fixed Color Pill."

Chen Sansi explained its effect.

"Brother Shi, isn't this very expensive?"

The Empress was first delighted, then somewhat distressed: "Wouldn't it affect your cultivation?"

"Indeed, Junior Brother."

Sun Li teased, "Why, are you disdaining Senior Sister's age now? You could sell these elixirs first; Sky Wall City is waiting for spirit stones."

The spirit stones Chen Sansi captured indeed weren't few, but after all, there was no income, and the development of Sky Wall City would undeniably need them in the future.

"Both ladies are indeed very considerate."

He teased, "This is an imperial edict, so you must accept it. I could hunt for silver back then, and now there are countless ways to earn spirit stones."

Only then did the Empress and the Imperial Concubine accept them.

At this moment, two princesses dressed in Liuxian Dresses entered the side chamber.

The former was Chen Yunxi, now thirteen or fourteen years old, in her prime, sweet and charming, and very well-behaved.

Beside her was Xu Bin's daughter, Xu Yuhuan, also nine years old, who was recognized as Chen Sansi's adopted daughter while in Po Yang, and later, when the court stabilized, she was granted the title "Princess Wu Yuan."

It is worth mentioning that Princess Wu Yuan bears a spirit root and can cultivate in the future, much to Xu Bin's delight.

"This child greets Father Emperor."

The two princesses gracefully saluted.

"Yunxi, Yun Huan, come, sit by your father."

Chen Sansi smilingly beckoned, "Xixi is about to start cultivation soon, have you decided on which cultivation technique you want to practice?"

In Sky Wall City, martial arts techniques are limited, but a lot of Immortal Path Skills for the Qi Refinement Realm have been obtained.

"Not yet."

Chen Yunxi gently shook her head, "Father said Yunxi should think about it more."

"Alright, no rush."

Chen Sansi swept his gaze across the dining table, "Where is He'er? Where has he run off to this time?"

"Your Highness..."

Before Si Qinmohua could answer, a boisterous noise came from outside.

"Father—"

The seven-year-old Chen Duhe stepped over the threshold, charging into the room, and the first thing he said was: "When will you appoint me as the Crown Prince?!"

He is currently Prince Yu, not the Crown Prince.

This child remains rather unruly, but somehow listens to Xu Wencai, having not caused any major trouble these years.

"We'll talk after you come of age."

Chen Sansi questioned: "How has your studying been lately?"

"No one can match me!"

Chen Duhe pretended as if to start reciting his lessons.
