The Era of Immortal Cultivation

"April 21st, enjoy tea and listen to books!"

"April 22, enjoy tea and listen to books!"

“April 23, should we do something else?

Forget it, let’s listen to a book and drink tea.”

"April twenty-four..."

The storyteller in Fulin Tea House is really good, his articulation is clear, and the stories he tells are all wonderful. Every afternoon, the two floors of the tea house are always filled with all kinds of people.

"Mr. Chen, can you tell me more about the golden swordsman a hundred years ago?"

Li Hao had gained some face after hanging out in the teahouse for a few days. Of course, the key to face was that he alone could spend ten more than others.

This old Chen took his reward money for three or four days in a row, and it was all right:

"Do you know why this Golden Swordsman is called the Golden Swordsman? That's because he really has a three-foot golden sword!

However, although this man is a swordsman, his most powerful skill is actually not his swordsmanship, but a spear technique that is astonishing to the gods! And it is an invisible spear technique!

According to legend, no one who was his enemy could survive his special skill "Spear in the Arm". This shot was like a dragon, causing thunder and lightning. Before the gun was seen, people were killed..."

The storyteller on the stage was still talking hard and making some movements from time to time, which made the tea guests keep applauding. But Li Hao's thoughts had already drifted away.

This world is indeed a world of "Swordsman", at least it should be.

Li Hao even heard from a storyteller the story of the hero Guo Jing who guarded the city for thirty years more than two hundred years ago and finally died in Xiangyang. The one-armed hero also appeared several times as a guest character in "The Biography of Guo Jing".

This story has been widely circulated. It is similar to Yue, Three Kingdoms, Yang Family Generals, Xing Tang, and Di Gong's case. It is a must-tell story every day.

In other words, this world is a standard "Gold System Jianghu Universe", and it is the same as the timeline.

But everything in this world was turned upside down a hundred years ago, around the time of the Jingnan Incident!

The protagonist of the story is what storytellers call the ‘Golden Swordsman’, or Li Hao’s ‘Senior Daobiao’.

This person, whose origins are unknown, has defeated dozens of masters from both the good and evil paths in a row in just one year. His ruthless attacks have caused widespread resentment in the world.

If that's the case, it's just a matter of admitting defeat and losing face, or dying in his hands if you're brave enough. Jianghu is originally about fighting and killing. How many people can he kill as a lone ranger?

But this person also has a great hobby. He competes with others to win. If he sees a good martial arts master, he will definitely ask for it. Otherwise, he will kill his opponent and then compete with his master's friends. He will not give up until he gets the martial arts secrets!

This arouses the anger of heaven and the resentment of people, and does not tolerate both good and evil.

So, headed by Zen Master Hongye of Southern Shaolin, we gathered the four top masters of the good and evil paths at that time, and invited them to discuss old martial arts events like the "Five Ultimates" in ancient times, and compete in Wuyi Mountain.

On the day of the martial arts debate, four masters fought against him one after another. The most powerful Zen Master Hongye could only sustain more than sixty moves in his hands before being defeated.

So the four of them 'admonished' the Golden Swordsman, and then 'discuss the moral principles of the world with this devil, let's go shoulder to shoulder!'

It is expected that the four masters of good and evil will work together to eradicate this evil and bring peace to the world.

The swordsman was unable to defeat eight swordsmen with one sword, and was about to die. The crowds of spectators, both good and evil, cheered loudly.

Suddenly there were six loud bangs in succession on the ground, and all three people except Zen Master Hongye fell down at the sound, and blood started to form in the Zen Master's lower abdomen.

The other three people all had holes as big as the mouth of a bowl, and they ran out of breath in an instant.

Fortunately, although Zen Master Hongye had never practiced the Vajra Indestructible Magic Skill, his external skills were indeed top-notch, so he barely managed to save his life.

After this battle, the Golden Swordsman's "monstrous power is overwhelming", no, the "Golden Hero" became famous far and wide. Wherever he went, various sects and sects greeted him with all kinds of secret books.

...

But the reversal came! Zen Master Hongye barely managed to survive and returned to the temple to recuperate. In less than a year, he recovered from his injuries and improved his skills greatly. Under the "Great Enlightenment", he entered the innate state that no one had achieved in decades.

Zen Master Hongye's martial arts has greatly improved. The first thing he did when he came out of seclusion was to hunt down the golden swordsman who injured him. After all, there are some things that I don't use as a monk, but I can't live without them!

The Golden Swordsman then changed from a 'hero' to a 'thief'. He was hunted for several months in a row. He had nowhere to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth. Just when he was about to die at the hands of Zen Master Hongye, the reverse happened again.

Got:

He did not know what means he used to instigate the rebellion of Zen Master Hongye's disciple Du Yuan. When the Zen master was coaxed by Du Yuan to go to Luoyang, he went to Fujian to retrieve Hong Ye's lair, and also obtained the secret of Hong Ye's great power improvement, the "Sunflower Book".

Zen Master Hongye was so angry that he vowed to kill the Golden Swordsman to pay homage to his lost 'second brother' and fellow sect.

At the same time, Luoyang, Xi'an, Beijing and larger bookstores all over the country received a large number of mysterious orders.

In less than a month, from Mobei to Qiongzhou, from the Western Regions to the East China Sea, everyone knew about the Sunflower Collection and Hongye Zen Master.

There are millions of copies of the Sunflower Book in seven or eight different versions, including the 'Genuine Sunflower Book of Divine Skills', 'The Golden Swordsman's Critical Edition of the Sunflower Book', and the 'Hongye Zen Master Xiantian First Anniversary Commemorative Edition'.

Each version has different mental methods and supporting martial arts, but the martial arts principles are consistent. More importantly, the title page of all printed copies is the same:

If you want to practice magical skills, you must first go to the palace!

Thank you Zen Master Hongye for your great sacrifice for the advancement of martial arts!

The story of Hongye cutting has since been successfully selected into the top ten important events in the century since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, alongside major events such as the founding of the Hongwu Dynasty, the Jingnan Incident, and the Tumu Fortress Incident. The popularity of Zen Master Hongye has been closely matched by the sages such as Confucius and Mencius, and the Golden Swordsman.

Together, they were honored as the Two Saints of 'Wu' Tao by later generations of warriors.

But this is just the beginning...

Just like Clan Yue, Clan Zuo, and Lin Pingzhi in the normal timeline, there are always some responsibilities, some ambitions, and some hatreds in this world that are more painful and torturous than losing two ounces of flesh and dignity.

There are countless "unknown people" at the bottom of the world. If you want to gain an ordinary martial arts master, you have to shed your head and blood. There are 20 books in the magical book. Whether you practice or not, it is not a loss to buy a copy and take a look.

How many oppressed common people were there under the backward and rigid system of the feudal dynasty? Those countless people who every few years become the sayings in the history books of "great famine, people eat each other", "severe drought, sparse people", are nothing more than one death.

What is there not to lose?

Careers, charlatans, ordinary people with nowhere to go, they are inconspicuous when they are one or two, but when they gather together, they become countless people!

Before that, there was no equality in this world except death. There was no equality between the rich officials and the peasants, there was no equality between the famous disciples and the lowly Jianghu people, and even there was no equality between the chief beggar and the little beggar.

But now, they have another 'equal' right, the 'right' of another choice when the fate that they were unable to resist comes.

At first, no one cared about it, but it was just the avengers who had their families wiped out suddenly completed their revenge, and it was just the people who were oppressed until their families were destroyed and their families were destroyed. They took the risk of killing officials... It was just something that happened before, now, and will happen in the future.

But everything is different again.

The craze of the times was brewed when most people were still laughing at the red leaves, lurking in the gentle breeze and drizzle, ignored when there were slight waves, and then when it swept forward, no one could stop this shocking torrent.

...

The era of great harvest has arrived!
