The news that the ancient cemetery was about to open came out from Dazhongzhou, and the calm continent suddenly stirred up waves like a huge boulder thrown into the calm lake.
The ancient sects with tens of thousands of years of tradition naturally knew when the cemetery would be opened. They had already started selecting successors a hundred years ago in order to cultivate a young generation of geniuses who are the strongest in the Holy Realm.
Emerging in the cemetery... The genius Taoist Madman and the Blood Monk, who were once famous on the mainland, also crossed the ocean twenty years ago and found an unnamed desert island in the vast East China Sea. They could not escape from the world and fight.
Not practicing, just waiting for that day to come!
Of course, these things are matters for the saints after all, and are matters that only those geniuses who truly stand at the top of the continent, or have the opportunity to stand at the top of the continent in the future, will care about. But in the world, they actually do not cause much trouble.
Especially in the northwest region where there is not even a powerful sect and saints like to live in seclusion, it is more like this incident has never happened and has not affected the world at all.
However, if a stone falls into the Jinghu Lake, how can it be possible that the person in the lake will not be affected in any way? However, for the Northwest Territory, what really affects the warriors is actually another thing, which is confusing. At the same time
Something exciting too.
The two Saints of Star Soul, who are the most powerful in the Northwest Territory but never want to get involved in worldly matters, actually issued a very strange edict to the outside world to recruit talents!
"This is about taking concubines... Bah, it's about taking in concubines. What do you think, Sect Master?" In the Guiyuan Sect, an old man with white eyebrows dressed very casually took a sip of tea, pursed his lips and frowned and muttered: "Your tea is really good.
Not very good."
In front of the sect master, drinking the sect master's tea, but still blaming the tea for not tasting good. Such a person is naturally not an ordinary person.
Sect leader Jian Wanshan rolled his eyes and said in a deep voice: "The tea is naturally good tea. I can only blame you for tasting too many medicines and it tastes too bitter."
After hearing this, the white-browed old man, who was rarely sitting calmly in the chair discussing important matters with the sect master, suddenly jumped up from the chair: "Nonsense! My medicines are naturally fragrant."
"Well, your medicines are all fragrant, so the tea is bitter." Jian Wanshan took a sip of tea, slowly savoring the light tea like a slightly astringent sweetness in the back of his mouth, but he was too lazy to talk to the white-browed old man.
argue.
Because he loves tea and swords, he is the sect leader of Guiyuan Sect, and he is also the master of the Sword Sect. But the white-browed old man is the master of the Medicine Sect, and he only loves medicine in his life. The two are not connected.
So how can we argue? Why bother?
"But having said that, is it possible that the two saints have been free for thousands of years and suddenly want to recruit disciples?" The white-browed old man continued to ask.
"I'm afraid only a pharmacist like you would think about making medicine after seeing the spiritual material and fairy grass." Jian Wanshan glanced at the tea bowl in his hand and said: "In my opinion, drinking tea is of course just for the sake of it.
Drinking tea, then since the Second Sage said he is recruiting talents, naturally he is just recruiting talents, and it has nothing to do with whether he wants to accept disciples or not."
The white-browed old man surprisingly did not refute, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "There is some truth in this. If the Second Sage wants to recruit disciples, there is no need to hide them and have to create a name to recruit talents. I want to do this.
There are some secrets behind the matter."
Jian Wanshan didn't speak, he just drank tea slowly and remained silent.
"Could it be related to that matter?" the white-browed old man suddenly asked.
Jian Wanshan was silent for a moment and said: "The Northwest Territory is just a pool, and the saints are people outside the pool and outside the court, and we are just fish in the pool, so how can we understand their deep meanings, and why do we need to understand those things?
In other words, we just do what we should do..."
The world is the same world, and the continent is also the same continent, but people at different levels can always obtain different secrets, so the same world is split into many different worlds.
When a saint looks to the northwest and the mainland, it's like looking at the water in a pond or the fish in a pond. And an existence as powerful as Guiyuan Sect can only figure out a trace of the saint's thoughts through extremely obscure information, and then follow the instructions.
Situation and judgment to make decisions.
His Majesty Jian Wanshan and the Shuiyue Dynasty didn't know whether the two aloof saints wanted to recruit disciples, or whether they simply wanted to recruit talents and select the best talents in the northwest region. However, they still responded positively to the two saints.
Following the call of the saint, he began to collect outstanding talents on a large scale in the territory under his jurisdiction.
The Two Saints issued a call, and Guiyuan Sect, Shuiyue Dynasty, Tianluo Sect, and Luosha Sect responded one after another. Naturally, the entire northwest fell into chaos.
However, chaos does not necessarily mean a bad thing, because everyone knows that the legendary two saints want to recruit talents, so they all know that the long-standing silence of the Northwest Territory is about to bid farewell to its original silence, and they can only no longer remain silent.
Only by showing your edge and blooming your brilliance can you get more benefits from this chaos! Only then can you be taken a second look by the saint from above.
Therefore, the original so-called peaceful cultivation should not show too much edge, a big tree attracts the wind, and has the concept of forbearance. After a certain unknown strongman single-handedly broke into the Tianluo Sect and became famous in a battle, the tranquility in the northwest was officially declared over.
, an era of strong young men fighting with swords has been born.
In the same year, strong men who had been suppressed for many years began to emerge one after another. Some people even created something called the Billboard. Anyone who can be on the list must be under a hundred years old.
Strong!
This kind of list has not been recognized by the world, but the strange thing is that anyone who can appear on the list has naturally become a challenge target for young and powerful people.
For example, Fei Liu, who once broke into Tianluo Sect single-handedly and fought with the elders of Tianluo Sect at the eighth level of nirvana and was undefeated in a hundred moves, went from being unknown to becoming famous in one battle, ranking third on the most popular list. So who can
Defeating Fei Liu will naturally take his place and become famous in one battle.
The strong men in the northwest region fought according to the ranking list, constantly refreshing their rankings. In just one year, the strong men hiding everywhere appeared one after another, and the rankings gradually became fixed. It is worth mentioning.
Yes, the top 100 people on the list have all entered the realm of Nirvana! And the top three strong ones have reached the eighth level of Nirvana or above!
Being less than a hundred years old and entering Nirvana is undoubtedly a rare talent in the world of cultivation. Before the appearance of the Billboard, no one had ever thought that there were so many Nirvana masters hidden in the Northwest Territory. It can be seen from this that
, I am afraid there are many more powerful people who are over a hundred years old and cannot enter the list of celebrities.
A year has passed, and the northwest region has been turbulent, but Wolong Mountain outside King Daqian City is still very calm, and Qin Feng is still practicing calmly and happily as usual. He practices beside the waterfall and pool, and during his practice I will chat casually with Nangong Yun and chat with friends in the Dan Alliance.
They talked about alchemy, spiritual practice, and food. But after the Billboard appeared, they would also chat casually about the Billboard, guessing who among the people on the list was stronger. But that kind of talk was undoubtedly just a trivial matter after dinner. , did not affect Qin Feng's cultivation state of mind at all, as if everything had nothing to do with him. He was not involved in the affairs of the cultivation world or the affairs of the court, he just practiced quietly and silently.
During the peaceful practice, time flew by, and soon it was spring again, welcoming the new year, bidding farewell to the old year, and the Kingdom of Daqian bid farewell to the old king and established a new king.
Chen Yangze, who had long wanted to retire, officially abdicated. The new king of Daqian was naturally the sixth prince Chen Yiming, the candidate favored by the King of Qin after a tea in Wolong Mountain half a year ago.
The prestige of King Qin and Wolong Mountain naturally needs no introduction. Especially after the princess of the Shuiyue Dynasty came to Daqian on behalf of the dynasty and the Guiyuan clan, and gave a great gift to Wolong Mountain, Wolong Mountain was in Daqian. The status in people's hearts has undoubtedly become more noble and more sacred.
Therefore, Wolong Mountain is not just a mountain outside the royal city, but a mountain in the hearts of countless people. King Qin, who does not leave the mountain all year round and only practices in the mountains, has become a being that transcends royal power in their hearts. , but also the true pillar and spiritual sustenance of the entire kingdom.
And the Sixth Prince is the person that King Qin is optimistic about, and represents the attitude of Wolong Mountain, so the Sixth Prince will naturally become the new king as a matter of course. No one will have any other opinions, and no one dares to have other opinions. Even Sixth Prince will naturally become the new king. The prince is a fatuous and incompetent man, and he must take over the throne.
This is the influence of Wolong Mountain in Daqian.
Of course, the Sixth Prince was not a mediocre person. On the contrary, he was still a very thoughtful person. So only three months after he ascended the throne, the Sixth Prince started a revolution. He wanted to overthrow the old system.
The old system of Daqian may be very good, but what happened to Xue Tianchong twenty-nine years ago, or even some events sixteen years ago, and three years have passed, are still like the Battle of Yumenguan that happened in front of us, and are different from each other. The Battle of Wolong Mountain, which almost led to the destruction of Daqian, had a profound impact on him.
Therefore, in the view of the Sixth Prince, the old system advocated that everyone should perform their own duties, and everyone should abide by their position and serve the mechanism. This is indeed very good, even perfect. But the absolute perfection of the system, This may result in the imperfection of human nature, and to a large extent, it suppresses human nature and limits the possibility of doing more.
As the King of Qin said that day, if you are not selfish, you will have no self and no own wishes. As the great scholar of Zhou admitted, he also has a selfish side. If selfishness is a level of human nature, how can it be suppressed? ?If there are many people who have more pursuits and there are more possibilities in life, then why can't we provide people with more opportunities?
Why do we say that those who farm will have to farm all their lives, and their descendants will also farm. Why do soldiers who join the army have to endure danger and war all their lives? Why do they have to make selfless sacrifices forever? And why do we say that they are the descendants of civil servants? , can he still become a civil servant? Can a person with a title of title be hereditary for his heirs?
Therefore, the Sixth Prince wanted to spend more money and energy to make academies and samurai academies bloom like flowers in ordinary mountain villages, giving more opportunities to ordinary people in the mountain villages. At the same time, he wanted to cancel A hereditary title, even for the heirs of dukes and marquises, will be doomed to be banned by ordinary people if they cannot come from behind and if they cannot have better abilities.
Moreover, he also wants to confirm the new system in the military headquarters and the entire court. He wants the sergeants who are tired of fighting to go home or even leave the military service, so that "poor Xue Zhenyuan is not allowed to enter the royal city." Such a historic event. The tragedy will never happen again. Let everyone living in Daqian and working for Daqian together can maintain their own selves and retain the possibility of pursuing their wishes.
