Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

The so-called "elixir of life" that Gao Yao brought out was certainly not a genuine elixir. Although he had the mysterious prescription, the key Tianxing powder in it was not something Gao Yao could easily obtain. In fact, Gao Yao had no intention of swallowing the so-called elixir of life himself. The reason was actually quite easy to understand, because the elixir of life had a huge flaw hidden in it.

The elixir of immortality is highly dependent on the star, as if there is some kind of closely connected and inseparable relationship between the two. Once the star is destroyed, the magical effect of immortality will instantly disappear.

For this purpose, Gao Yao spent a lot of energy and time to study the mysteries of the elixir of life. In this process, many rare and expensive medicinal materials, like medicine leads, are used to stimulate the unique and wonderful medicinal properties of Tianxing powder, thereby building a unique bond.

It is through this bond that those who take this medicine can rely on the power of the stars to survive in the world, and at the same time reap the magical effect of slowing down the aging of the body.

This is why Yi Xiaochuan aged rapidly after the effect of the Heavenly Star Powder disappeared. In fact, the so-called delaying aging is only a superficial phenomenon. It still relies on the energy of the Heavenly Star to slow down the process. Moreover, the degree of this slowing down is even as high as a thousand times! However, once the support of the Heavenly Star Power is lost, the previously suppressed cells will age rapidly and die like a flood.

Over a long period of time, this method of delaying aging actually has hidden dangers. Although the cell death rate has been significantly reduced, at the same time, they have also lost the ability to reproduce themselves. Once human cells lose the function of self-renewal, when old cells die, new cells cannot be replenished in time, thus resulting in rapid aging.

As for Gao Yao, he had no intention of letting his life be closely linked to a meteorite. If the tiger-shaped jade pendant in the entire mythological world can be called a world-class treasure, then needless to say, the mysterious star is undoubtedly the thing that Gao Yao is most eager to destroy. The more critical point is the time travel, which runs through the entire world. Yi Xiaochuan and Gao Yao can return to Daqin, as well as the characteristics of the elixir of immortality, are all related to the star. The reward for destroying the star can be imagined.

However, the coveted secret recipe of the elixir of life has now firmly fallen into Gao Yao's hands. With this mysterious formula in hand, he naturally would not easily let go of the opportunity to explore it in depth. Now that he knew the shortcomings of the elixir of life, Gao Yao did not forget the benefits of this thing, and simply devoted himself to the study of the elixir of life, hoping to find a new way from it and develop an elixir of life that has no excessive side effects and is effective.

Hard work pays off. After unremitting efforts, Gao Yao finally made great achievements in this research and has achieved initial results. Although the goal of immortality is out of reach, he has successfully achieved the goal of prolonging life.

The superb medical skills bestowed by the system are not in vain. With Gao Yao's cleverly improved prescription, every pill taken can extend life by at least five years! Moreover, if taken continuously, it can still work, but the effect will gradually weaken. Generally speaking, after taking five pills in a row, the effect is no longer significant. However, even so, this medicine still has the effect of strengthening the body, making people energetic and strong.

Speaking of the elixir presented to Qin Shi Huang, it is not a genuine elixir of immortality at all. At best, it is just a tonic. However, it should be noted that the tonic here is for ordinary mortals.

Qin Shihuang's physique had long been weak and difficult to replenish. If he rashly swallowed these so-called elixirs of immortality, his body would inevitably be unable to bear the powerful medicinal power contained in them, and he would eventually die.

Moreover, with Qin Shi Huang's wisdom and prudence, he would have ordered others to try the medicine before taking it. If it was something like poison, there would be no room for consideration. After all, if it really had no significant effect, how could Qin Shi Huang easily take it? Not to mention that it was a poison that could kill people!

There is no need to even think about such a poisonous substance. Qin Shihuang would never swallow it. At the same time, it is worth mentioning that the number of such immortality pills prepared by Gao Yao is extremely limited, with only three in total.

There was actually a conspiracy carefully planned by Gao Yao behind this! The extremely precious and rare elixir became the key. Due to the limited quantity, Qin Shihuang was faced with extremely narrow options. More importantly, the implementation of this plan must be completed before Qin Shihuang's eastern tour.

Because once the Eastern Tour plan was launched, Qin Shihuang would only have Zhao Gao as his attendant. By then, it would be extremely difficult to take such action again.

On the contrary, the Xianyang Palace, whether inside or outside the palace or in the court, was filled with Qin Shihuang's confidants and spies. If Zhao Gao wanted to cause trouble at this time, it would obviously be impossible.

The reason why Gao Yao took so much trouble to cultivate Lu Sheng was to personally kill Qin Shi Huang. The limited number of elixirs was not only to cater to the needs of the plot development, but also to make Qin Shi Huang believe it.

Only when Qin Shi Huang was convinced that these pills were scarce and precious, would he choose to take them without hesitation, which were a great tonic for others but extremely poisonous to him.

However, Lu Sheng was not trained by Gao Yao himself, so if he wanted to use Lu Sheng, he had to first train him, win him over, threaten him, and understand his opponent's weaknesses. Now that Qin Shihuang was about to make an eastern tour, there was no point in waiting any longer. Whether he could ruin the plot depended on this move, so Gao Yao would naturally not be careless.

Gao Yao had even made preparations for the possibility that Lu Sheng might suddenly defect. Of course, this was also for emergency use. Besides Gao Yao, the only people who knew about this matter were Lu Zhi, Xiao He, and others. The fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, so as to avoid any accidents. In particular, the assassination incident made Gao Yao glad for his previous considerations and choices, otherwise, Beiyanshan people might have noticed the clues long ago.
