"Oh? So, that fairy was actually captured by the emperor? Cui Shouxian raised his eyebrows and said, "This faint monarch has just been promoted to a martial saint, and he has such strength to be able to compete with the immortals in the spirit realm?" ”

The reason why the three major martial arts holy lands have always been able to emerge in an endless stream and surpass the entire martial arts is precisely because there is a gap in their mountain gates that communicates with the spiritual realm, or a spiritual spring, or a tree hole of a thousand-year-old tree, or a hollow Buddha statue.

It is precisely because of the existence of these gaps leading to the spiritual realm that among the three major martial arts holy lands, there is also some slightly free aura in the void, nourishing the bodies of the martial artists in them.

Coupled with the various treasures that are occasionally obtained and passed down from the spirit realm, it ensures that the masters of the three major martial arts holy lands will always be a few steps above the other sects in the martial arts.

And those spiritual springs, sacred trees, and ancient Buddhas in the door have also become the core secrets of the three major martial arts holy lands, and the nourishment of the thin spiritual energy in the door is also the reason why the masters in these martial arts holy lands are easily reluctant to go down the mountain.

Once you go down the mountain and enter the great world where your aura is exhausted, you may have to live for a year.

And in the past ten years, the situation of these three martial arts holy places has been different.

Through those spiritual springs, sacred trees, and even ancient Buddhas in the door, they were actually able to get in touch with some immortal cultivators in the spirit realm!

Those elixirs and various so-called "immortal martial arts" inheritances from the Immortal Cultivation Sect immediately raised the strength of the three major martial arts holy lands to a higher level, and also made them invisibly become vassals of those Spiritual Realm Immortal Cultivation Sects.

It's just that with the increasing strength, these martial artists in the martial arts holy land also have different thoughts.

Are those immortals in the so-called spiritual realm really that powerful? Otherwise, why didn't they actually appear in the world?

At this time, after receiving the news that the immortal cultivator Yanran was very likely to be arrested by the emperor, the hearts of the three martial saints present all rippled.

Immortals, immortals, claimed to live in the spiritual realm, high above, omnipotent, now it seems that these martial saints are not bad!

Even a little emperor who is a new martial saint can easily handle an immortal, and their accumulated martial saints will only be more relaxed.

The monk Shi Tian smiled slightly, put his palms together, and said to the Buddha:

"Amitabha, it seems that the immortals in this spiritual realm are just like this, and the little monk is about to stretch his feet."

Dao Yan also smiled:

"In this way, the two Taoist friends and the poor Dao thought of going together...... Although this mundane world is extensive, my three major martial arts holy lands have been suppressed for many years, and it is nothing more than that, there is no freshness, but the spiritual realm, which is really fascinating. ”

"After the faint monarch is suppressed, the world is peaceful, and the four seas return to the heart, the poor Dao is ready to go to the spiritual realm to take a trip to see the so-called immortal people, compared with the immortal martial arts of the poor Dao, which is stronger and which is weaker."

"Not bad!" Cui Shouxian was also full of pride at this time, stroked his beard, his eyes were like torches, and said loudly:

"As the saying goes, there are people outside the world, and my three major martial arts holy lands are only confined to this great wilderness, which is really a little wronged...... Since there is that spiritual realm, those so-called immortals have done it, can't we and other martial saints do it? ”

"Perhaps, this is the day when my three holy lands will take off again! In that spiritual realm, the prestige of the three immortal martial holy lands will be achieved! ”

Shi Tian's eyes were sharp, and he proclaimed a Buddha horn and said:

"That's right, the little monk only hopes to spread my Shaolin prestige all over the spiritual realm!"

As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and replaced the wine with tea.

Cui Shouxian and Dao Yan also picked up the teacup in front of them, with a happy look on their faces.

They have achieved martial saints in this great wilderness, and they have long had no opponents, and there is a kind of loneliness that is unbearable in the heights.

Even Emperor Shunlong, the so-called achievement of martial saints and suppression of the four-way rebels, in their eyes, is just a pediatric.

After many years of learning about the existence of the spirit realm, and now they have discovered that the so-called immortals in the spirit realm are nothing more than Erer, which has made them even more eager to overlook the world and explore and conquer the spirit realm.

The posture of the martial saint is really lonely in this great wilderness, and their future is in the spiritual realm!

Cui Shouxian held the teacup and said slowly:

"I have nine surnames and ten clans, I have suppressed the world, and I have paid a lot for the mortals in this world, and in the future, I should also be in the spiritual realm, for the Xianmen family, and suppress the eternals! Just wait to destroy the puppet emperor and promote my family! ”

Shi Tian and Dao Yan were also born in the nine surnames and ten clans, and they all showed excitement at this time, and said Sen Ran:

"Destroy the puppet emperor and promote my family!"

Qi Qi drank all the tea in the cup, and then looked at each other and laughed, a hearty one.

The true qi of the three martial saints was agitated, and the wind suddenly whistled in all directions, blowing up the curtain of the palace-like chariot they were in, and the coercion that was almost frozen in the air.

The sixteen acquired martial artists carrying the chariot snorted in unison at this time, and then the true power in their bodies continued to flow, shouting in unison:

"Destroy the faint king, raise my family!"

Continue to walk forward.

The generals and soldiers around this step also felt the coercion from the Martial Saint, and they were all shocked in their hearts, and then their morale was greatly boosted.

At this time, the entire coalition army of nearly one million people marched mightily, the footsteps rumbled across the border like thunder, and the flags were unfurled, which was the handsome banner of all the feudal towns and the banners of the nine surnames and ten families.

These nearly a million people are all shogunate soldiers from various feudal towns, the elite of the elite.

At this time, driven by a group of generals in the army, the sound was like thunder, rolling in all directions:

"Destroy the puppet emperor and promote my family!"

As the guards of the shogunate of each feudal town, they also regarded being a slave in the family as the supreme honor, and they also maintained the nine surnames and ten clans.

Everyone understands that they are going to make a contribution.

Emperor Shunlong is mediocre, the new emperor Li Xun has ascended the throne, the year name is Gongde, and the holy drive is in Xijing.

The Gongsun clan in Xijing, along with other families with nine surnames and ten clans, has already formed a new imperial court in Xijing, with a cabinet, six ministries and various court institutions, and even the new Xichang set up by the Shunlong puppet emperor has been copied from the past.

All the big and small officials in this new court are all from families with nine surnames and ten clans, and there is no party dispute between the eunuch party, the Hou party, and the Dongzhu party.

However, the new emperor's sense of existence is indeed weaker, it is said that he has been on the throne these days, and he doesn't talk much in the court, and it has always been presided over by the four new cabinet scholars of the Xijing Imperial Court, Cui Qiancheng, Xu Yunjie, Gongsun Lin, and Cai Wenhuan, and then discussed with other courtiers.

These four cabinet scholars of the Xijing Imperial Court are the current patriarchs of the upper four of the nine surnames and ten clans.

And in this Xijing court, there is naturally a harmonious atmosphere, and there is no longer the puppet emperor Shunlong's court, and there are all kinds of power struggles when Enhai was in charge.

At the same time, taking advantage of the opportunity of the coalition army of the 36th Road Domain to crusade against the puppet emperor Shunlong, it is said that the Xijing Imperial Court doubled the conscription tax several times and collected some new taxes, including Yazheng tax, rebellion tax, coalition army soldier and horse tax, and so on.

Many small farmers and landlords were overwhelmed and went bankrupt or owed debts that the new dynasty could not pay off in their lifetime.

Fortunately, the major families with nine surnames and ten clans were kind, and during this time, they recruited domestic slaves and family members on a large scale, which can be regarded as giving those bankrupt farmers and small landlords a way out.

It is said that some poor families have been impoverished by all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and they have no choice but to enter the family to do jobs such as the master of the account.

That's it, I have to thank the nine surnames and ten families for their generosity.

Otherwise, there is nowhere to go if you want to eat.

The coalition army marched through the valley and soon came to a pass, which was once a town at the foot of the Unsan Pai Mountain, and was considered an important road between Gyeonggi Province and Kannam Province.

These days, it has been built into a small pass city, which looks quite imposing, and is called Cloud City.

At this time, the million-strong army sent 20,000 vanguards to investigate, but soon got the news that this pass city was empty.

Only a few old and weak tenant farmers and merchants who once belonged to the Yunshan faction were still in the city, and according to them, the defenders in the city had withdrawn a few days ago and disappeared.

The 36th Route Coalition Army did not stop at all at this time, and directly pulled out the camp into Gyeonggi Province and went straight to the capital.

In the face of such a vast army of millions, all conspiracies and tricks are ineffective, no matter where the defenders in the cloud city go, the capital is still there after all.

As long as the capital is captured, the puppet emperor Li Yun will naturally have nothing to hide!

……

On the square outside the Taihe Palace, tables and chairs are neatly placed, tens of thousands of students are sitting upright in front of the table, and the four treasures of pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and study are placed on the table in front of them.

Scholar Ye Huaixiang was sitting among the tens of thousands of tables and chairs at this time, looking up at the students present, with an excited smile on his face.

Most of these students came from the three provinces of Huangji, and many came from all over the world, and the farthest is said to come from Anxi Dao on the border of Wuguo.

Among the more than 10,000 people, there are almost no children of the family, even the children of the poor family are quite a few, and the vast majority of the remaining people are from ordinary families, merchants, small landlords, officials, tenant farmers, weavers and even opera families!

A few of them were even more unkempt, ragged, and tattered, but their original family suffered a disaster, and they fled all the way to the capital.

There is also a place in the examination room of this Taihe Temple.

The emperor has personally decreed that this Enke exam, no matter where you come from, no matter how noble or low, anyone can take the Enke exam as long as they want to!

There is not even any such thing as a scripture test, so even some of the former masters of the family have come to this Enke examination room to try their luck.

The more this is the case, the more the candidates feel the emperor's mighty imperial grace!

These civilians, who are not from a family, finally have hope for the upward!

At this moment, I only listened to the white jade pill in front of the Taihe Palace, and the eunuch Shao Guang, the eunuch who held the seal of the celebrant and said:

"The auspicious time has come, all the living beings answer the sheet, and there are two questions in the hand-picked examination of the saint, the ordinary family, and the average field and acres!"
