Chapter 50: Elixir of Immortality

```

Within the underground palace, rows of ever-burning lamps blazed fiercely, making the room sufficiently bright.

This burial chamber was originally for placing burial objects and terracotta figurines, but now it had been transformed into a study by Xu Xuan.

Sparks burst from the oil lamp from time to time as Xu Xuan leaned over his desk, observing closely.

After several days of screening, Xu Xuan had a general idea of the content on the bamboo slips—most of it recorded history and consisted of panegyric literature.

There was also a description of the Taiyin Body Refining Method, and as for the liquid in the coffin, it was called the Elixir of Immortality, formally known as the Cicada Molting Elixir of Immortality.

Legend has it that during the Qin Dynasty, Emperor Qin traveled to the East Sea, where his attendants saw a corpse floating on the sea: the corpse had hair white as a crane, a face youthful as a child, and appeared vividly lifelike, clutching a treasure mirror.
