Chapter 223: The Way of Civility and Martial Arts, Prisoner's Monument
Jiang Changsheng silently blessed Mu Lingluo with one million incense points to see if she could have a great adventure.
Among the blessings of incense and fire, Mu Lingluo is the only one who has hope of catching up with Lin Haotian, and Jiang Changsheng has high hopes for her.
After the blessing, Jiang Changsheng withdrew his gaze and concentrated on practicing.
I don’t know when these one million incense sticks will take effect.
Jiang Changsheng thought silently.
The other side.
In the central part of Dajing, there is Tiangang Prefecture, the former site of the Tiangang Dynasty.
Among the mountains, a group of men and women in uniform robes were building a Taoist temple. They were disciples of the Taoist sect.
Qi Yuan and Fengtian Emperor Li Ya meditated halfway up the mountain, facing the scorching sun, practicing Qi together. Their Qi wrapped around their bodies and condensed into substance, like smoke surrounding them, which was extremely magical.
Li Ya opened his eyes and exclaimed: "Brother Qi is really a great talent. This path can be achieved."
Qi Yuan did not open his eyes, and said calmly: "Brother Li is also very good. If it were not for your appearance, it would take me at least ten years to achieve this. It can only be said that we have accomplished each other."
Hearing this, Li Ya smiled.
He then asked: "Brother Qi is so talented, are you willing to travel the world like this? Why don't you come to me, Fengtian, and I will announce to the world that I will use the power of the people of the world to help you promote the teachings and establish the Daozu Temple."
Before coming to Longmai Continent, he thought that Daozu was just an extremely powerful warrior, but on the way, he saw the magnificent rivers in the sky and witnessed the shocking sight of Daozu holding up the sea. From that moment on, Daozu was a god in his heart.
Even if Qi Yuan was not there, he was ready to go back and erect a statue for the Taoist ancestor. How could he not worship a living immortal?
He even fantasized that if the entire Fengtian believed in Daozu, would Daozu protect Fengtian as well?
If this is the case, perhaps Fengtian's predicament can be resolved, Dajing can become an ally, and then the battle against the other three dynasties may not be impossible. If successful, Fengtian will take off!
Qi Yuan shook his head and said, "If it is implemented in the name of the Son of Heaven, how can the people believe it? They will only resist it, especially when their lives are not satisfactory. Besides, whether it is Dajing or Fengtian, they have to fight. It is inconsistent with my thoughts. I just need to prove it to the world with my own experience."
"I'm afraid this process will take a long time, or even a lifetime."
"Then let my life become a legacy, and let the next generation continue to work hard."
Qi Yuan’s words left Li Ya silent.
He felt respect in his heart. This was the first time he felt such respect for a person. What he respected was not the physical strength, but the will.
Qi Yuan said: "Okay, don't talk about this anymore, just concentrate, our martial arts will be established."
Li Ya nodded.
…
October.
The sky of Dajing suddenly changed strangely, strong winds howled across the earth, and the sky was filled with purple clouds. Anyone with outstanding martial arts skills could feel the change in Dajing's fortune.
Jiang Che and Chen Li walked out of the imperial study. Chen Li frowned and said, "What kind of change is this? It's different from a warrior's breakthrough, but Da Jing's luck is growing so fast, even faster than the luck improvement brought by the birth of Qiankun Realm."
Jiang Che had seen many storms and he smiled calmly: "It seems that my great vision has produced another amazing talent. Let's see where it came from."
Chen Li practiced his skills and sensed it carefully.
After a long while, he finally answered, "Tiangang Prefecture."
Jiang Che narrowed his eyes and said, "Could it be Qi Sheng of the Daozu Sect? The White Guards had previously learned that Qi Sheng was creating some kind of new martial arts. This is the way to practice martial arts. If successful, it would be worthy of such a celestial phenomenon."
"I will check it out right away!"
Chen Li bowed and left quickly.
Jiang Che looked at the purple sky with a smile on his face, as if he had thought of something good.
At the age of fifty-nine, his temples began to turn gray, making him look more mature.
A month later, the news that Qi Sheng, the leader of the Taoist sect, had created a new martial art spread throughout the world. He called it the way of civil and martial arts, and used chanting poems and songs to arouse the martial arts aura to fight. He specially challenged a powerful sect in Tiangangzhou and challenged their Golden Body Realm leader. He defeated the Golden Body Realm leader with the power of the God-Man Realm and became famous in one battle!
The ways of civil and martial arts spread throughout the Dajing martial arts world.
Afterwards, the emperor issued an edict to the world, declaring that Qi Yuan, the leader of the Taoist sect, had created a unique martial art and made great contributions to future generations, so he was specially named the Saint of Civil and Martial Arts and was awarded a golden medal of immunity from death!
When this decree was issued, the whole world was in an uproar. This was the first saint in Dajing recognized by the emperor!
Mid-December.
Jiang Che came to visit Jiang Changsheng, and he was impressed by Qi Yuan's strength.
"The way of combining civil and martial arts that he created is truly amazing. As long as a certain emotion is strong enough, it can arouse the martial arts spirit to fight for oneself. If this method is used on the battlefield, it will be incredible. It can make many soldiers with low martial arts skills burst out with terrible fighting power."
Jiang Che's tone could hardly conceal a hint of excitement.
He looked at Jiang Changsheng with eyes full of admiration. He knew the origin of Qi Sheng. Qi Sheng was impressed by the Taoist master's ability to move mountains. If it weren't for the Taoist master, he might have returned to Da Qi and established the ways of literature and martial arts in Da Qi.
"Once the Way of Civilization and Martial Arts is revealed, scholars can also have fighting power. At least they don't have to take time out to practice martial arts. Reading can lead to powerful martial arts. This is definitely something that no one dared to think of before."
Jiang Che praised Qi Sheng highly, and Ye Xundi wanted to challenge Qi Sheng after hearing it.
"Don't, although you are strong in both civil and martial arts, the gap between you is too big. Don't kill him." Jiang Che hurriedly stopped him. It was obvious that Qi Sheng had become a treasure in his heart.
Ye Xundi said unhappily: "Look at you."
He felt a little sour in his heart, as Jingtian Sect had valued him so much back then.
Jiang Jian said with emotion: "I have to say, Qi Sheng is indeed extraordinary. I never thought there was such a way of practicing martial arts before."
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and said, "In a sense, this is no longer martial arts, but it uses the same spiritual energy as martial arts."
He felt relieved and satisfied with Qi Sheng. He didn't expect that such a martial art could actually be created.
There is no number one in martial arts, and the strong will eventually be replaced by a stronger one, but as long as the ways of civil and martial arts remain, Qi Sheng will be remembered in history and admired by countless people in later generations.
However, it is ultimately based on the foundation of martial arts aura, and it does not break the rules of the martial arts world. As long as it is martial arts aura, no matter how you practice it, you cannot reach the level of cultivating immortals.
What cultivators absorb is the original spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is equivalent to the unity of man and nature. However, this point is restricted by the rules of the martial arts world and cannot be crossed.
In a sense, the martial arts aura is also a protective layer of heaven and earth. Its existence makes it impossible for anything in heaven and earth to replace this world.
Bai Qi chuckled and said, "Master, when did you create the immortal path?"
Immortal path?
Everyone looked at Jiang Changsheng, and even Ji Wujun had a burning look in his eyes.
In the Holy Dynasty, Ji Wujun had seen too many unique skills, but had never seen an immortal skill like that of the Taoist Ancestor.
Scattering beans to create soldiers, holding up the sea, bringing the dead back to life, turning into a dragon...
This is definitely a magic!
Jiang Changsheng said: "Let's talk about it after you reach the end of martial arts. Even I am working towards this goal."
He couldn't create an immortal path, so he simply diverted his attention.
He only needs to explain it to the people around him. As for the people in the world, let them think whatever they want. It is also a good thing for them to regard him as an immortal god and provide him with a steady stream of incense.
Everyone was disappointed, but not discouraged. Yes, if they hadn't even reached the end of the martial arts, why would they get involved in the immortal path?
In their opinion, Jiang Changsheng may have surpassed the end of martial arts.
The only people who knew Jiang Changsheng's real age were Jiang Che and Jiang Jian. The others only met him after he became powerful. From the very beginning, his image in the minds of those around him was invincible, so they ignored the fact that Jiang Changsheng was still within the realm of martial arts.
Over the years, apart from meditating, they have not seen Jiang Changsheng practicing martial arts, which makes their guess even more certain.
Jiang Che stayed for a while and then left happily.
Next, he planned to vigorously promote the ways of civil and military affairs.
Time continues to pass.
The sixth year of Taihe, early March.
Li Ya came to visit and presented the Qiyun martial arts that he created.
Before leaving, he also said that he wanted to build a temple for Jiang Changsheng in Fengtian, and his words were full of flattery.
Jiang Changsheng did not make things difficult for him. He was able to fulfill his promise and present the martial arts he founded, which had already won Jiang Changsheng's recognition.
Even though letting him go might bring disaster to Dajing, he deserves to live.
Maybe he can also bring better relations between Dajing and Fengtian.
The world is still big, and on the road to unifying the world, Dajing and Fengtian can also move forward hand in hand. They don't have to fight to the death. In the process of fighting together, as long as the gap is widened, the other side may bow its head. Of course, there may also be calculations, and any possibility exists.
Jiang Changsheng stretched, stood up, and jumped onto the branch of the Earth Spirit Tree.
Ye Xundi, Jiang Jian, Jian Shen, and Ji Wujun were studying Li Ya's way of luck. They specially copied a copy each and had originally given it to Jiang Che.
Jiang Changsheng looked into the distance.
Lin Haotian was still absorbing the blood and energy of the Demon Saint. No monster dared to approach the sea area where the Demon Saint was, which was a good thing for Lin Haotian.
Jiang Changsheng continued to look, looking at Mu Lingluo.
He raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth.
The Mu family came to an ancient and desolate archipelago. On each island, there were outlines of human cities, but no traces of warriors. The Mu family fleet also came here by accident. They had been traveling through fog for three months and almost lost their way.
On this archipelago, they discovered many rare treasures, martial arts secrets, and even magical weapons, and the entire Mu family was excited.
They moved a large number of wooden boxes onto the boat, and Mu Lingluo was attracted by a mountain. Accompanied by Mu Xuangang, she came to the halfway point of the mountain and found a cave. Inside the cave, they found a mysterious stone tablet.
Mu Xuangang looked at it for a long time before he recognized the words on it.
Prisoner of Heaven Monument!
When Mu Lingluo touched the Heaven-Prisoning Stele, it shattered and a beam of light emerged and penetrated into her forehead. After the Heaven-Prisoning Stele shattered, a stone sword appeared and the hilt fell into Mu Lingluo's hand.
Mu Xuangang was terrified, fearing that something might happen to his granddaughter. Fortunately, Jiang Changsheng spoke up in time.
"Don't panic, she is accepting the inheritance."
The voice came from the golden scales and jade leaves on Mu Lingluo's body. Mu Xuangang had not heard this voice for a long time, but he recognized it as soon as he heard it. He immediately became excited and knelt down to kowtow to the immortal god.
