Wang Xizhi mastered the art of Confucian calligraphy to the point of being close to the Tao, and was called the Saint of Calligraphy. At that time, Wang Xizhi's skills were not much worse than those of Zhu Xi of the Song Dynasty.

In other words, this calligrapher Wang Xizhi is an existence that can touch the mark of heaven.

An alternative way of achieving enlightenment, one that can compete with the pinnacle of humanity.

Unfortunately, after meeting Xie Daoyuan and talking with her for just half a day, Wang Xizhi gave up on his son whose Taoist heart was almost shattered and accepted Xie Daoyuan as his disciple.

After that, Xie Daoyuan became unstoppable in his spiritual practice.

When Tianshi Sun En started an uprising, he took advantage of Wang Xizhi's ascension to heaven and almost completely destroyed the Wang family of Langya. Even Wang Xizhi's son was beheaded by him.

Such behavior angered Xie Daoyuan, who was hiding at home at the time.

Xie Daoyuan single-handedly fought his way through Sun En's army and went straight into the commander's camp. With three swords, he cut off more than half of Sun En's army's luck, saved the remaining heir of the Wang family, and escaped unscathed.

At that time, Sun En was as famous as Zhu Faqing of the Northern Mahayana Maitreya Sect. Even Yan Fei, who was known as the best master in the world at the time, was defeated by Sun En in a tie after several battles.

But even such a person, with an army of hundreds of thousands, could not stop Xie Daoyuan at all and could only let her come and go as she pleased.

It can be said that Xie Daoyuan made a small contribution to the failure of Sun En's uprising.

However, Xie Daoyuan did not like fame, so she lived in seclusion.

This was the only battle in his life, and it was distorted and publicized by Sun En.

If Xie Xuan had not arrived and told people that his sister Xie Daoyuan had once reached the pinnacle of humanity, no one would have known about this extraordinary talent until now.

It can only be said that Yang Zhao was lucky to be able to keep this extraordinary woman in Guanlong.

As a result, Yang Zhao, the lord of Guanlong, often felt weak and unable to resist when he saw Xie Daoyuan.

He was left with some unkind words from Xie Daoyuan.

Yang Zhao felt miserable, but he put on a smile and didn't answer.

Xie Daoyun seemed to like seeing Yang Zhao's aggrieved expression. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. After a pause, she asked casually, "Your Highness, are you going to mobilize troops against Sichuan and Lingnan when you return to the court this time?"

When it comes to business, Yang Zhao's expression becomes a little serious.

After exchanging a glance with Xie Daoyun, Yang Zhaofang said, "Sister Yun is very perceptive and can see through everything. Now that Prince Zhao's palace is at peace and the country is strong, with more luck, it's time to take over Sichuan and Lingnan."

"Once Sichuan and Lingnan are pacified, it will be time for me to march out of Guanzhong and unify the Sui Dynasty."

Nothing about Prince Zhao's mansion could be hidden from this extraordinary woman with amazing talent.

Facing Xie Daoyuan, Yang Zhao had nothing to hide.

Xie Daoyun nodded and said, "If that's the case, after being away for half a year, Your Highness must have already found out about the dangers in Sichuan and Lingnan?"

Yang Zhao's heart moved, and he asked, "Sister Yun knows the inside story?"

In the Lingnan area, the Song clan is very powerful, and there is also a rare genius like Song Que. However, since hundreds of years ago, no matter how chaotic the world was, the Song clan had never left Lingnan.

Although Sichuan and Shu are areas of deep mountains and old forests, their reputation as the land of abundance is not exaggerated. The aristocratic families of the Sui Dynasty seemed to be blind and unable to see such a fertile land.

No one would believe me if you say there is no problem here.

In response to Yang Zhao's question, Xie Daoyuan looked at Yang Zhao with a smile, and the light of wisdom in her eyes was so clear that it seemed as if she could see through people at a glance.

He felt extremely uncomfortable being looked at by Xie Daoyuan.

Yang Zhao cursed inwardly that he was a little bitch, and could only wave his hands and said, "Alright, alright, I've already learned about the hidden dangers in Lingnan from my father-in-law. The Song clan has stood in Lingnan for hundreds of years but has never moved north. This is to prevent Sun En's comeback. As for Sichuan and Shu, I haven't explored them either. What kind of disasters are there?"

Hundreds of years ago, Sun En's uprising swept across most of the Jin Dynasty and even reached the capital at one point.

However, Sun En was a man of both good and evil. He started an uprising and established a country not for the people, but for his own path and for the spread of Tianshi Dao.

Therefore, in that era, Xie Daoyuan, Liu Laozhi, Liu Yu, Yan Fei and others had all dealt a heavy blow to Sun En.

Under the siege of masters from all sides and the counterattack of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Sun En's uprising failed, and he had to retreat southward with his remaining troops, and was eventually forced into the sea.

And Sun En was indeed a man of talent. He was indomitable and made a name for himself on the sea. Not only did he become a great pirate on the sea, he also absorbed barbarians from surrounding countries, as well as from Yamatai, India, Persia, and even from the westernmost parts of the world. He incorporated Chinese and foreign methods, innovated the Huangtian Dafa, and then once again attacked the land from the southern waters.

The Song clan was founded on the favor of the Jin Dynasty and had vowed to protect Lingnan.

The threat posed by Sun En's gang of sea pirates led to the Song clan, which once grew to the size of one of the four great clans of the Sui Dynasty. However, no matter what opportunities or chances they had, they never sent troops out of Lingnan to compete for the Central Plains.

This is the case in Lingnan.

But the Sichuan and Shu areas really made Yang Zhao helpless and increasingly wary.

And now in Sichuan.

There were the 100,000 Yue Family troops secretly spread by Yang Zhao, as well as the secretly controlled Jie Hui of Du Zunbao, and even the Tianlian Sect and Zhen Chuandao of the Sichuan Demon Sect. With so many scouts, they searched almost all of Sichuan, but still could not find the legendary disaster.

Chapter 615: Xianmen Disciple Xie Daoyun

The Sichuan and Shu regions of the Sui Dynasty were known as the Land of Abundance, but there were hardly any top-notch forces living in them, and the benefits of this Land of Abundance had not been fully developed.

Among all Yang Zhao’s intelligence channels.

In Sichuan and Shu, the only hidden dangers that can be said to be there are some remnants of the Tianshi Dao left behind by the former Tianshi Sun En, as well as some remnants who were expelled by the Demon Sect's true ancestor Lu Jingxiu.

As for the Miao, Bai, Tujia, Yi and other ethnic groups, there is no need to worry.

With such a tiny force, let alone under Yang Zhao's command, any one of them, whether it is the former Guanlong clan or the Central Plains family, could completely wipe it out.

However, such an excellent foundation has been left unoccupied for hundreds of years.

Yang Zhao even asked Xie Xuan, Li Bai, Zhu Faqing and other "old guys" who were old enough, but without exception, no one knew the answer.

Only Li Bai provided a clue, which was very vague, saying only that there was a great terror deep in Sichuan.

Originally, Yang Zhao was almost ready to give up searching for the trouble in Sichuan.

However, Xie Daoyuan's ambiguous attitude gave Yang Zhao a glimmer of hope again.

It’s not that Yang Zhao is timid.

But it is something that all the aristocratic families in the entire Sui Dynasty are wary of, and Yang Zhao dare not underestimate it.

After all, troubled times were approaching. If something went wrong while conquering Sichuan and Shu, and if there were too many casualties, it might affect Yang Zhao's overall plan to unify the Sui Dynasty.

Looking at Yang Zhao's solemn attitude and extremely strong desire for knowledge.

It was extremely rare for Xie Daoyuan to not transform into Xie Duidui and make sarcastic remarks to Yang Zhao.

Xie Daoyun paused for a moment, looking reminiscent, as if clearing his mind, before asking Yang Zhao, "Your Highness, what is your opinion on Buddhism in the Sui Dynasty?"

Yang Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Sister Yun, is this related to the rumored disaster in Sichuan and Shu?"

Xie Daoyun smiled as softly as willow catkins and said, "It is quite relevant."

After hearing Xie Daoyuan's answer, Yang Zhao's expression quickly became solemn.

In the present-day Great Sui territory, since Yang Zhao proclaimed himself king and established his dynasty, he has been strengthening himself step by step. He is no longer afraid of falling out with the aristocratic families of the Great Sui Dynasty, and he is not afraid to even tear up the unspoken rules and start an all-out war.

But when it comes to Buddhism and Taoism, Yang Zhao is still very wary.

Although the sects in the Sui Dynasty's martial arts world seem low-key and inconspicuous, almost all of them have close ties with Buddhism and Taoism.

Tianshi Dao, Taiyi Sect, Laojun Temple, Shangzhi Temple, Daming Zun Sect, Maitreya Sect, Jingnian Zen Sect, etc.

Just by hearing the names, you can tell how profound an influence Buddhism and Taoism had in the Sui Dynasty.

Moreover, behind these Buddhist and Taoist religions, there is a huge backstage, the world of immortals.

Yang Zhao once learned this from Li Bai.

Behind the immortal gate is an extremely vast cave world, which is only slightly inferior to the heaven that fishes for the fortune of the human world.

This square world is almost the back garden of Buddhism and Taoism.

Li Bai is also half Taoist, half Confucian and half swordsman, which is why he was able to ascend to the immortal realm after breaking through the ceiling of the Martial Saint realm.

But even so, Li Bai's life in the immortal world was not going well.

If the disaster in Sichuan and Shu involves Buddhism and Taoism, then the land of Sichuan and Shu can truly be described as a place of great terror.

There are thousands of thoughts in my mind, but they only flash through in an instant.

Yang Zhao looked at Xie Daoyun's clear eyes, and his heart quickly became firm. He said in a resolute tone: "Whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, under my command, there is absolutely no place or person outside the world. The immortals and gods from heaven have come down to my territory, so they may have to abide by the rules I set."

"The rise and fall of Buddhism and Taoism ultimately depends on the incense and offerings from the human world. Even if they enjoy the offerings from the human world, they must abide by the order of the human world. Whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, they should recite the sutras well and practice Taoism well. If they can guide and attract people to a higher level, that's fine. Those who meddle with the imperial power will die, and those who fool the people will perish."

Just like the aristocratic families.

Yang Zhao was not averse to Buddhism and Taoism, nor was he unable to tolerate them.

Ultimately, it all depends on the purpose and actions of Buddhism and Taoism. If they touch Yang Zhao's bottom line, there will be no tolerance.

Cihang Jingzhai interfered with the imperial power, and Jingnian Zen Buddhism fooled the people.

Therefore, the two major Buddhist sects of the Sui Dynasty have now been almost completely wiped out by Yang Zhao.

Looking at Yang Zhao's firm will that was like divine iron.

Xie Daoyun finally sighed inexplicably, seeming to admire, but also somewhat helpless, and said: "Your Highness is ambitious and cares about the people. I admire you."

"However, if Your Highness has such a belief, after entering the land of Sichuan and Shu, I am afraid that you will have a quarrel and dispute with Buddhism and Taoism. Deep in Sichuan and Shu, there is a fairy mountain transformed from foreign relics. It is a passage connecting the human world and the fairy gate."

The fairy mountain transformed from the foreign ruins is the passage connecting the two worlds.

After hearing about this incident, Yang Zhao couldn't help but feel a headache. It sounded like this person was not someone that was easy to deal with.

After a pause, Yang Zhao said in a flattering tone, "Sister Yun has great magical powers. Do you know the inside story of the fairy mountain and the passage? Why don't you tell me about it? It won't cause any trouble, right?"

Xie Daoyun rolled her eyes at Yang Zhao and said, "I am also half Taoist and half Confucian. I am actually a disciple of the Immortal Sect."

Hundreds of years ago, during the Jin Dynasty, the trend of discussing metaphysics was very strong.

Xie Daoyuan, who was once the most talented woman in the world, was also a pioneer in discussing metaphysics.

It is not wrong to say that he is half Taoist and half Confucian.

After hearing what Xie Daoyuan said, Yang Zhao's expression froze for a moment, then he stopped smiling and looked at Xie Daoyuan sincerely and seriously.

If the other party is really a disciple of the immortal sect, then the relationship between the two parties needs to be treated seriously.

Noticed the change in Yang Zhao's expression.

Xie Daoyun's body was like flying willow catkins, and her whole person became ethereal. She looked at Yang Zhao with a little resentment and said, "Your Highness knows my identity, but you want to fight with me?"

Yang Zhao shook his head and said, "Whether we need to take action depends on what Sister Yun's intentions are."

Xie Daoyuan raised her eyebrows, and a strange vision appeared behind her. A connection that penetrated heaven and earth went straight into the depths of the infinite sky. A vague aura turned into willow catkins that drifted away like snow in the sky.

The body bears the seal of Heaven’s Heart, and the pinnacle of humanity is revealed.

Xie Daoyun looked at Yang Zhao again and said, "With my strength, even if Your Highness uses all the resources of Prince Zhao's Mansion, you may not be able to defeat me, okay?"

Looking at the aura of Xie Daoyuan that was as deep as the sea, it seemed as if he was pulled into a strange area in the void of another dimension.

Yang Zhao grinned, white jade light shone from his fingertips, revealing eight white teeth.

"So that Sister Yun can know."

"There will come a day in this world when one would rather die in glory than live in disgrace!"

Chapter 616: The Immortal Sect's Layout from Three Hundred Years Ago

The power at the pinnacle of humanity is truly terrifying. Yang Zhao couldn't even see the slightest trace of its operation.

In the Daxing Palace, in full view of everyone.

Yang Zhao was pulled into a strange realm by Xie Daoyuan, but the outside world seemed unaware.

In the world of Kyushu today, although more than 90% of the power and might of the laws of heaven and earth have been restrained by the Way of Heaven, the strongest people at the peak of humanity already have the capital to dialogue with the Way of Heaven.

With the mark of the heart of heaven in his body, he can naturally restore some of the power of martial arts.

Therefore, there are rumors in the world that the peak of humanity is invincible.

When Xie Xuan talked about his sister, who had once reached the pinnacle of humanity, Yang Zhao was initially skeptical.

But now, Yang Zhao had to believe it even if he didn't want to.

Facing this existence at the pinnacle of humanity, Yang Zhao could clearly feel that his martial arts power, the magic bell, the Nine Swords of the Void, and even the trump cards deduced by the system, etc., could not hurt Xie Daoyuan in the slightest.

Only the fairy white jade ring with white jade light flowing on the fingertips can give Yang Zhao a slight sense of security.

Rather Stick to your guns.
