After the four princes Zhou Huan and Feng Rui were rescued by Emperor Zhou Tian and Feng Yi, the king of Nanling, they cultivated in a secret room in the cave palace that was not discovered by Harrier Dewa and others for a few days before leaving Broken Soul Mountain. At that time, the Harrier Deva had already left the Broken Soul Mountain in advance.

As soon as the fourth prince Zhou Huan arrived in the capital, he went straight to Zhou Yi's palace marshal's mansion. Zhou Yi was shocked to hear the news of Emperor Zhou Tian's death, and immediately sat down on the ground.

The fourth prince, Zhou Huan, said: "Uncle, help me ascend the throne, I have here the secret decree of the emperor's handwritten succession." ”

Zhou Yi said: "The four princes have already been established as the crown princes, and there is a secret decree of the previous emperor, this inheritance of the throne is a matter of course, and the ministers will immediately arrange the relevant matters of the enthronement ceremony." ”

The fourth prince, Zhou Huan, said: "Okay, uncle, you go and arrange it first, I want to go to the Yilong Palace in Qingdang Mountain, please go back to Uncle Ti, and then hold the enthronement ceremony when I come back." ”

As soon as Zhou Yi heard this, his godless eyes immediately flashed, and he said excitedly: "If Zhou Ti returns to the dynasty to help, our royal dynasty will have a powerful soul towering above." ”

Zhou Yi said that this Zhou Ti is the head of the Xuanguan Dao of the Prison of Yilong Palace in Qingdang Mountain, and he is the younger brother of Emperor Zhou Tian.

During the reign of Emperor Zhou Zhou, he had a total of twenty-six sons, among which Zhou Tian and Zhou Ti's strength was significantly higher than that of the other princes. According to the custom of the Xurui Dynasty, one of the two people, Zhou Tian and Zhou Ti, will be made the crown prince.

Because Zhou Tian and Zhou Ti were equal in force and had outstanding character, Emperor Zhou Zhou had never determined the position of the crown prince.

On the day after Zhou Ti was twenty years old, he had a secret conversation with Emperor Zhou Zhou, and then Zhou Ti suddenly went to Qingdang Mountain to become a monk.

As soon as Zhou Ti left, Zhou Tian was immediately made the crown prince.

It wasn't until Zhou Zhou abdicated and Zhou Tian became the emperor that he asked his father Zhou Zhou about the reason why Zhou Ti, who was very likely to become the crown prince back then, suddenly became a Taoist priest.

Zhou Zhou sighed and said, "If Zhou Ti doesn't become a Taoist priest, it is really difficult to determine which of the two of you can be the crown prince and become the new emperor." The real reason why Zhou Ti persuaded me to agree to him to become a Taoist priest was that he could become a martial saint for our Zhou family to carry forward the past and open up the future. Moreover, the Zhou ladder is in the shadows, which has a huge effect on the consolidation of our Zhou dynasty. ”

Zhou Zhou glanced at his son Zhou Tian and continued: "You and Zhou Ti have the same talent in martial arts, but Zhou Ti's obsession with force is something you don't have. Back then, you practiced martial arts to fight for the position of the crown prince, and Zhou Ti practiced martial arts in order to create exercises that surpassed the Zhou family's martial arts. At that time, Zhou Ti knelt and prayed to me, saying that he would go to the mountains and forests without worldly troubles, and he was determined not to marry for the rest of his life, and he would devote his life to studying martial arts. I was immediately moved by Zhou Ti's sincerity, and agreed to his request to be a Taoist priest at that time. ”

After learning the reason why Zhou Ti became a Taoist priest, Emperor Zhou Tian remembered that he lived in a magnificent palace full of beauties, and Zhou Ti practiced alone in the wind and rain in the remote mountains and forests every day, he was deeply moved, and he was determined to devote all his strength to help Zhou Ti complete his long-cherished wish to create a new martial arts.

On the second day after Emperor Zhou Tian ascended the throne, he went to Yilong Palace in Qingdang Mountain to meet Zhou Ti.

When Zhou Ti became a monk in Qingdang Mountain, Emperor Zhou Zhou built a royal dojo Yilong Palace on the mountain, and let Zhou Ti be the supervisor.

There are only a dozen Taoist priests in Yilong Palace, and people in the vicinity know that this is a royal dojo, and they don't dare to come here to burn incense on weekdays.

More than a dozen Taoist priests in Yilong Palace are mainly responsible for guarding and cleaning the room, and two Taoist priests specialize in doing Taoist fasting in the kitchen.

The scale of Yilong Palace is not large, and it was built according to Zhou Ti's idea of wanting to practice quietly.

There are a total of three large houses and nineteen huts in Yilong Palace. The three large rooms are the idol room, the study room, and the practice room, and the eighteen huts are the ritual room, the guest room, the bedroom, the kitchen, and the utility room.

Emperor Zhou Tian saw Zhou Ti in a Taoist robe in the library, and as soon as Zhou Ti saw Zhou Tian coming, he immediately proposed to compete with Zhou Tian in force.

Emperor Zhou Tian smiled and agreed, and the two soon came to the practice room.

Zhou Ti lifted two 150-pound power stones with both hands, and walked nearly twice along the wall of the practice room with a length and width of more than ten zhang.

Zhou Ti put down the power stone, made a mark on the ground, and then carried the two power stones back to the place one by one.

Emperor Zhou Tian also lifted two power stones and walked along the route taken by Zhou Ladder.

Emperor Zhou Tianping lifted one hundred and fifty catties of force stones, and when he walked to the second circle, he put down the force stones a few zhang away from the place where the Zhou ladder was marked.

Emperor Zhou Tian said: "Brother Ti! We have been separated for a few years, and I am now the emperor, but I have lost the same force as you. ”

After Zhou Ti gave the emperor a Taoist salute, he said: "The emperor has a lot of opportunities, how can I have so much free time to practice force!"

Emperor Zhou Tian said: "No, we just changed positions, and you will be the one with the highest force today." After seeing Yilong Palace, I completely believed my father's words. I wonder if the ladder brother can make innovative breakthroughs in the exercises?"

In the past few years, while practicing the exercises of the Zhou family, I have sought to innovate and break through the exercises of our Zhou family, but the result has been no progress. With this set of exercises, our Zhou family has been in the world for more than 100 years, becoming the first martial arts family, this set of exercises has reached the peak realm, and it is difficult to find space for breakthrough and innovation. ”

Emperor Zhou Tian said: "Does that mean that the Zhou family exercises can no longer make innovative breakthroughs?"

Zhou Ti frowned and said, "If we can study more exercises from other schools that are very different from the characteristics of our Zhou family's exercises, we may have different results." ”

Emperor Zhou Tian said: "This is not difficult! There are many martial arts families and sects in our dynasty, and many of them are outstanding in their martial arts. Every once in a while in the future, I will find a strong man who has mastered this kind of exercise to come to your Yilong Palace for you to study and innovate and break through the exercises. ”

Zhou Ti suddenly knelt down and said, "Emperor Xie!"

Emperor Zhou Tian hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhou Ti and said: "Brother Ladder! My position as emperor was given to me by you, and it is my duty to do something for you. ”
