Great Qin: The Immortal State Preceptor Helps the First Emperor Extend His Life and Cultivate Immortality

A true immortal on the verge of ascending from the world of cultivation was struck by a heavenly tribulation and sent tumbling into the Qin era, where he became a laborer at the foot of Mount Li. This was Gu Changsheng’s third life. The bad news: This body was on the verge of dying from illness, and the world contained not a trace of spiritual energy. The good news: His mind was filled with top-tier cultivation techniques and ingenious arts of every kind. At this fateful juncture, when the Qin dynasty was destined to perish after just two generations, Gu Changsheng dragged his failing body in front of the First Emperor’s carriage. “Your Majesty, all those elixirs you take are poison. Give me three days, and I’ll restore your health.” A desperate bargain, with their lives on the line, changed the course of the Qin dynasty forever. To secure his cultivation plans, Gu Changsheng began clearing out the corrupt elements in the court. Zhao Gao formed cliques and schemed to usurp power. Gu Changsheng casually set up a small image-recording array, exposing Zhao Gao’s ambitions to the First Emperor in full. The eldest prince, Fusu, was full of rigid notions of benevolence and righteousness. Gu Changsheng stripped him of his royal status and threw him into the lowest labor camp to experience life and death firsthand, forging him into a formidable ruler who understood both warfare and governance. As for Li Si, whose power dominated the court, once he witnessed genuine immortal techniques, he too was brought firmly to heel and made a willing supervisor of the Qin’s construction projects. With the entire Qin empire behind him, Gu Changsheng planted spirit grain and forged immortal artifacts, then somehow set up a Spirit-Gathering Array in this land devoid of spiritual energy. The First Emperor had only hoped to live a few more years. Instead, he found himself growing young again and even able to fly on a sword. “State Preceptor, who exactly are you?” “Your Majesty, I’m just an ordinary man who knows a little about cultivation.”
