"I have to work hard!"
Lin Fan clenched his fists, looked determined, and continued to practice Qinggong in the courtyard.
"Children can be taught."
Zhou Yi nodded slightly. It was impossible to break a mountain with one sword. The original intention was to let Lin Fan practice steadily.
The biggest flaw of genius is that it is too easy to obtain and prone to arrogance and impatience!
It never hurts to set an unattainable goal now, to be in awe, and to be cautious at all times. As for the final discovery that the world is full of trash, Lin Fan's expression was so wonderful, Zhou Yi had some small expectations in his heart.
A book appeared out of thin air in his hand, recording the history of Spirit Sword City, which came from the Sword Casting Hall Imperial Library forbidden land.
Spirit Sword City can be guessed from the name, and it has something to do with the Spirit Sword Sect.
According to the records in the book, a great demon appeared in Azure Province back then, and he practiced demonic skills and devoured countless lives. Spirit Sword Sect Ancestor, regardless of his body, fought desperately with the demon, and finally died together.
Sword Casting Hall was built by the disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect. To commemorate the ancestor's meritorious service, it was named Spirit Sword City!
"Shit!"
Zhou Yi crushed the book into pieces, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. The first ancestor who became possessed by the devil was Jian Xuan.
Lin Fan stopped walking and asked in confusion, "Venerable Immortal, who made you angry?"
"That's it..."
Zhou Yi stopped mid-sentence, not wanting to be deeply involved with Lin Fan on this matter, and said quietly, "I have lived for too long, and I find that wherever I go, there are bad things!"
Lin Fan asked curiously, "Where are Venerable Immortal and Kunlun Mountain?"
"Kunlun Mountain is everywhere, but not anywhere."
Zhou Yi looked up to the southeast. "In Yunzhou a few years ago, it was tens of thousands of miles away from here."
"Tens of thousands of miles!"
Lin Fan exclaimed, "Why did the immortal come so far?"
Zhou Yi sighed, "There is an annoying guy over there, I am too lazy to see him."
White Cloud Peak has almost been dug out by the soldiers in recent years. Even if it does not affect Microcosm Formation, the buzzing noise every day is annoying.
"Oh."
Lin Fan Seeing that the Daoist Master was unwilling to say more, he changed the subject very sensibly. "Immortal, I have been practicing for so long, why don't you teach me the sword skills?"
Zhou Yi glanced at Lin Fan and stroked his long beard.
"If you can break a mountain with one sword, what other skills are needed?"
Xianjing.
It was originally Daqian Kyoto, but was renamed after Daqing occupied it.
Emperor Taishi claimed to have met Immortal Opportunity and practiced in Kunlun Mountain, so he changed his name to an immortal.
Qing Kingdom Historians and officials searched through the thousands of books collected during the Qian dynasty, but never found the word "Kunlun". They were also afraid of His Majesty's majesty, so they had no choice but to copy the source from ancient books.
The officials who knew the inside story smiled and said nothing. Most of the officials who didn't know the inside story just thought that Kunlun Mountain really existed in the world.
royal palace.
Shangyang Palace.
Emperor Taishi Qin Zheng glanced at the courtiers in the palace with cold and stern eyes. Under the suppression of the innate power and the emperor's majesty, the weak minister couldn't help but his legs trembled.
"General Zhang, has there been any trace of Kunlun in recent days?"
"Reply to Your Majesty."
General Zhang bowed and came out. "I sent one hundred thousand cavalry, and the troops from the East Sea were divided into two groups, marching north and south along the coast, carefully exploring mountains and rivers. Now we have swept through 50% of Yunzhou's area, and Kunlun Mountain has not been found!"
Emperor Taishi ordered, "It's too slow. Send another 100,000 troops and join forces with soldiers from various states to clean up Yunzhou within ten years!"
"According to the order."
General Zhang bowed down and took orders, Emperor Taishi captured most of the Qing Kingdom's territory, and his prestige in the army was unrivaled.
Not to mention searching for the illusory Kunlun Mountain, even if the immortal is in front of him, Emperor Taishi orders the Daqing cavalry to charge boldly!
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
When Chief Minister came out, he looked troubled. "The dynasty has just been established, and its foundation is not solid. It is time to rest and recuperate. Such a large-scale deployment of troops will not only be unbearable for the national treasury, but also the people will be burdened with a lot of labor."
"Your Majesty, we received an urgent shipment of 800 miles yesterday."
Ministry of Revenue Shangshu came out and said, "There is a drought in Ning'an Prefecture, Ming Prefecture, Yangshan Prefecture and other places. There will be no clouds in March. Please prepare disaster relief food in advance to avoid civil unrest."
Another minister came out and advised, "The theory of immortality and immortality has been false since ancient times. Your Majesty is young and powerful. Don't indulge in this and delay the country."
"I second the proposal!"
"Your Majesty, think twice!"
More than a dozen ministers came out in succession and asked Emperor Taishi to take back the military order.
"That's enough! I'm very awake now and have my own considerations in mind."
Emperor Taishi stopped the ministers, looked at the commander Brocade Guard, and asked, "How is the investigation of the Buddhist and Daoist apocryphal matters?"
"Back to Your Majesty, in the past half month, thirteen more temples and temples where apocryphal scriptures are recited have been raided and all of them have been sent to military service."
Liu Jin bowed and said, "I dare to issue a military order. Within one year, the apocryphal scriptures of this dynasty will be extinct, and within three years, no one in the Yunzhou countries will dare to recite the apocryphal scriptures!"
"Very good!"
Emperor Taishi praised, "Liu Aiqing lets go and does it. Anyone who slanders Xuanxiao Daozu is my enemy. They can be considered guilty of treason and punish the nine tribes!"
Emperor Taishi knows that Liu Jin is a sycophant, but when it comes to suppressing Buddhism, only ruthless sycophants can use it. With the foundation of Buddhism and Daoism, if anyone does it, it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause!
Moreover, Buddhism and Daoism slander the sages, apocryphal scriptures deceive the world, and use treacherous sycophants to suppress them, which is the retribution!
Emperor Taishi knew that there was little hope of finding Kunlun Mountain through soldiers, so he also rectified Dao Lord Xuanxiao's name and established him as one of the two saints of the Daoist sect, hoping to win the favor of Xuan Yi True Person.
"My lord, I obey the order!"
Liu Jin looked happy. With His Majesty's words, whoever dares to object Brocade Guard will throw a few apocryphal books into his house.
After leaving the court.
Lunch.
Emperor Taishi ate more than ten bowls of rice in a row, all of which were carefully selected grains of rice, but they always felt bland and tasteless.
"Pass True Man Xu!"
After a while.
The contemporary White Cloud Temple Lord True Man Xu came to see him, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times, shouting long live His Majesty.
Emperor Taishi was very satisfied, recalling that thirty-five years ago when he entered Xianjing, Buddhism and Daoism refused to kneel before the emperor and called themselves outsiders.
Now that seven temple masters have died in more than thirty years, the Daoist priests finally have a clear mind and bow respectfully. After all, all the monks Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple next door are dead and they don't even have a chance to beg for mercy.
"How is the refining of the longevity elixir going?"
"Your Majesty, the art of alchemy has been lost for a long time, and even a poor man who has been studying it for decades is not very good at it."
True Man Xu took out the jade box from his arms and offered it with both hands. "Several furnaces were destroyed in a row. It took a lot of spirit medicine, but only a few residual pills were made."
White Cloud Temple was passed down from the Dan Ding Sect. Even though it has experienced many changes and the inherited classics have been revised several times, many Pill Formula are still handed down. True Man Xu has devoted himself to alchemy, relying on three points of skill and seven points of loyalty, and gained the support and trust of Emperor Taishi.
The chamberlain brought the jade box up and opened it carefully.
There are three thumb-sized pills inside, all red in color, with golden moiré patterns, and an alluring medicinal fragrance.
Emperor Taishi's eyes flashed with surprise. He heard True Person talk about many magic pills, among which the longevity pill was the same as this one. He waved his hand to stop the waiter from trying the medicine, and he picked up one and swallowed it directly.
It melts in your mouth and the rich spiritual energy spreads into your internal organs.
After thirty-six years, I finally experienced the taste of spiritual energy again, like dew after a long drought.
"Hahaha!"
Emperor Taishi looked up to the sky and laughed. Scenes of familiar and unfamiliar scenes appeared in front of his eyes, as if he was raving like crazy.
"I hold the throne, ride the dragon chariot, and ascend to Kunlun..."
"There are thousands of green jujube trees, evergreen red vines, Mystic Pearl Grass, purple salvia..."
"Yin and Yang condense into fairy fruit, and the five qi merge into Ganoderma lucidum..."
"Going to the middle of Kunlun again, there is Jianmu Tree, a hundred feet without branches, green leaves and purple stems, reaching up to the nine sky, down to the nine secluded places, with the connection between immortals and gods above the sky..."
Emperor Taishi's words and deeds were recorded word for word by the palace historian!
