Cultivating Immortality and Seeking Longevity, Starting with the Nine Dragons' Struggle for the Throne

After transmigrating, Li Lingxiao becomes the designated crown prince of the Great Qi Dynasty, but gets caught in the struggle among nine princes for the throne. Accused of plotting to ally with the demon clans and rebel, he is demoted and sent to Yuzhou, where demons run rampant, to suppress them.

By chance, he obtains a fragmentary panel for an imperial weapon. Devouring baleful essence lets divine weapons advance endlessly; devouring baleful hearts gives sword techniques limitless power, and the energy can even be converted into spiritual qi to increase his cultivation!

Li Lingxiao: You’re accusing me of allying with the demon clans and plotting a rebellion? Then I’ll wipe out every last demon!

What? There are demons from other worlds too? Perfect, you can be fuel for my imperial weapon!

What? There’s an Immortal Realm as well? I’m done being emperor. I’m heading to the Immortal Realm to pursue eternal life!
