Martial Arts: I am in the Ming Cult and I am building a dynasty

During that stage.

Those gods and demons of the hundreds of races had long ago summed up a set of secret methods such as cannibalism and faith, which could help them find a 'shortcut'.

But humans are born with intelligence and are the leaders of all living things.

In an extremely difficult and harsh environment, they rose against the trend, and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, as well as countless top human sages, appeared one after another, and step by step got rid of their weak status.

Even in the middle and late ancient times, the gods and demons of hundreds of races were driven into the sky by humans.

It is said that they were driven into the Tianshan Mountains.

In fact, even in the sky, it is not all dominated by the gods and demons of the hundreds of races. There are large tracts of territory occupied and ruled by humans.

However, as those individual human races became increasingly powerful, their minds became distorted and they began to claim to be immortals and gods.

In the eyes of today's human race, there is not much difference between those 'human immortal gods' and the gods and demons of hundreds of races.

Whether it is the immortal gods of the human race or the gods and demons of hundreds of races.

All kinds of layouts and plans for the human world are just to fish for the human fortune and collect the human faith, so as to assist one's own practice and maintain one's own strength.

In addition, the laws of heaven and earth in the human world have been restrained, and immortals and gods are also greatly restricted and even dangerous when they descend to the mortal world.

That is why the gods in heaven rarely come down to the mortal world.

In other words, if you are just in the human world, you won't have too much conflict with the gods in heaven. At most, you will be hostile to the gods in heaven and be subjected to various conspiracies and instigations.

Such a situation made Yang Zhao feel a little relieved.

At the same time, the truth of this world made Yang Zhao, who had originally been somewhat relaxed, become cautious again, and even a little anxious.

Originally, after Yang Zhao proclaimed himself king and established his dynasty, he had the power to rule the dynasty.

In Yang Zhao's cognition, he is almost standing at the pinnacle of the world. No matter what force he faces, Yang Zhao is confident that he can remain invincible in this Guanlong area.

The Lord of Guanlong was enough to allow Yang Zhao to maintain his combat power at the ceiling level of a Martial Saint before he perfected and opened up a new path in martial arts.

If he managed to overdraw some of his Yunchao power, Yang Zhao could even burst out the combat power of the ninth step of the Martial Saint ceiling. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was invincible under the pinnacle of humanity.

As for the strong ones who are at the pinnacle of humanity.

In Yang Zhao's impression, these strong men are either breaking through and ascending, or seeking transcendence, and their number is very small.

However, the appearance of Xie Daoyun, the power of the pinnacle of humanity, and the existence of immortals and gods all made Yang Zhao feel uneasy.

Therefore, after temporarily settling the matter with Xie Daoyuan.

It was very rare for Yang Zhao to appear in the court, like a wise and holy ruler, and he worked with the cabinet and the government affairs hall to handle many government affairs.

at the same time.

After the group of heroes left Chang'an completely, Liu Laozhi, with the support of Yang Zhao, quickly rebuilt an extremely elite "Northern Palace Army" and marched towards Sichuan from Hanzhong in a mighty manner.

Including Yue Family Army and Duzun Fort in Sichuan, they also received orders from Yang Zhao and began to sweep across the entire Sichuan area from the south and east of Sichuan respectively.

Yang Zhao didn't know that the real terror in Sichuan and Shu was the remnants of ancient gods and demons suppressed by the Emei Fairy Mountain, the Youquan Blood Demon.

I thought that the so-called great terror was the threat from the Emei Fairy Mountain.

After learning from Xie Daoyuan that those "immortal gods" did not care about the changes in wars and power struggles in the human world, Yang Zhao no longer took the so-called great terror seriously.

And just when Yang Zhao was working diligently and preparing to steadily develop his own power.

Luoyang City, Ziwei Palace.

A eunuch in a dragon robe knelt in front of Yang Guang very respectfully, holding a secret letter in his hand. He did not dare to raise his head, but whispered: "Your Majesty, the spies in Guanzhong have sent news that the rebel king Yang Zhao has already begun to march out of Sichuan and Shu, and the general leading him is a peerless warrior named Liu Laozhi..."

The eunuch in the dragon robe chattered on and on about the intelligence information he had received from the spies.

At the top, on an extremely luxurious dragon platform, Yang Guang was playing with several beautiful women. After hearing the word Sichuan and Shu, Yang Guang was suddenly shocked and waved his hand, asking all the beautiful girls and palace maids to disperse.

After a long while, the curtains on the dragon platform were drawn open.

Yang Guang, who always looked decadent and gloomy, now revealed a rare aura of domineering, noble and violentness, with a gleam in his eyes that was extremely terrifying.

Yang Guang in this state, even though his clothes were disheveled, was very different from usual.

Since the failure of the expedition against Liao, Yang Guang has been restrained by the Li family, the Guandong family, the Central Plains family and other families.

After returning to Luoyang City, even Empress Xiao was abducted to Guanzhong by Yang Xuangan. The power of the three realms of heaven, earth and man was completely sealed, and Yang Guang's prestige was completely trampled underfoot.

In this situation, even the Yuwen clan, which had lost its roots, had betrayed Yang Guang.

Originally, Yang Guang's Right Guard army of 200,000 was forcibly divided into more than 100,000 by the Yuwen clan, and the remaining troops could only guarantee the protection of the imperial palace.

In other words, after Yang Guang returned to Luoyang, his entire power was basically completely abolished.

The order does not leave the palace.

Yang Guang was sensible. After realizing his own decline, he began to indulge in wine and women, pretending to be a subordinate, and was willing to be a puppet of the Li family, the Guandong family and others.

However, only those who were Yang Guang's loyal confidants in the palace knew that all this was just Yang Guang's temporary dormancy and forbearance.

Yang Guang was emperor for a relatively short period of time, and he did not even get the royal heritage of the Yang family.

But even so, as the former supreme ruler of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang still has his own trump card.

However, Yang Guang's trump card needs a suitable time to be revealed.

Chapter 623 Yang Guang’s trump card

Being an emperor is the most difficult job among all the jobs in the world.

A person who can become an emperor and even suppress the aristocratic families and officials in the court for a long time may have some problems, but he is definitely not a fool.

After Yang Guang failed in his expedition against Liao, he realized that the situation had changed and gave in completely.

What he has been waiting for is the opportunity to reveal his true colors.

And this opportunity was the Sichuan-Shu Change.

The powerful Martial Saint aura erupted wantonly throughout the entire palace, sealing the sky and locking the earth, blocking all the void, aura, sound, and even light.

Yang Guang quickly walked down from the dragon platform, ignoring the eunuch in the dragon robe kneeling on the ground, and took the secret letter.

He unfolded the secret letter and read ten lines at a glance.

It only took a cup of tea for Yang Guang to understand the detailed secret letter record of nearly ten thousand words. A violent and cruel smile also appeared on his face.

"The Northern Palace has formed an army and marched out of Sichuan and Shu. This nephew of mine really did not disappoint me."

"Having Liu Laozhi, a murderer from hundreds of years ago, as the commander-in-chief is great. He is even more perfect than I imagined."

After reading the secret letter, Yang Guang shook it casually, and the secret letter turned into powder.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Guang's gaze seemed to penetrate the endless void and looked towards the direction of Sichuan.

Since Yang Guang did not move, the eunuch in the dragon robe naturally did not dare to move either.

This atmosphere lasted for a full stick of incense.

Yang Guang waved his hand with a little excitement and overturned the entire Dragon Platform, revealing a deep underground secret passage under the Dragon Platform.

The moment the underground secret passage was revealed, an extremely strong evil aura and a bloody smell emanated from it. Amidst the rolling blood, there seemed to be the sounds of ghosts crying and gods howling, which directly acted on people's souls and made people tremble with fear.

"Wei Lianxiang, can I trust you?"

In front of the eunuch in the dragon robe, Yang Guang revealed his secret passage, and then looked at Wei Lianxiang, who was kneeling motionlessly below, with an extremely sharp gaze.

Hearing Yang Guang's question, Wei Lianxiang touched her head to the ground and said, "My life was given by Your Majesty. If Your Majesty wants me to live, I will live. If Your Majesty wants me to die, I will die."

As an undercover agent who has been working beside Yang Guang for decades, Wei Lianxiang knows Yang Guang's temper to the extreme, and speaks in a very pleasant and professional manner.

as predicted.

After hearing Wei Lianxiang's words, Yang Guang smiled with satisfaction, and casually sent out a gust of wind to help Wei Lianxiang up.

Then, Yang Guang smiled and said, "Your cultivation at the peak of the heavenly realm is not bad. Come with me."

After saying that, Yang Guang turned around and walked into the secret passage first.

Wei Lianxiang didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest and followed carefully behind.

The secret passage under the Dragon Platform was not particularly long, only about a hundred meters at most, and it was zigzag-shaped, and soon you arrived at an underground space more than 40 meters underground.

It is completely different from ordinary secret rooms, underground palaces, etc.

No one could have imagined that under the Luoyang Palace, or even under the Dragon Terrace where the emperor usually rested, there would be an enormous underground cave.

It is not man-made, but a naturally formed underground cave.

The entire underground cave is hundreds of square meters and more than two meters high. Except for many deep-sea pearls inlaid on the dome for lighting, there is no trace of human intervention in the entire cave.

Looking at this underground cave.

Yang Guang sighed abruptly and said, "Lianxiang, do you know why I insisted on mobilizing millions of civilians and countless resources to build the capital in Luoyang when I first ascended the throne?"

Wei Lianxiang lowered her head and said, "I am ignorant, but I know that your majesty has a long-term plan. The purpose of moving the capital to Luoyang is to get rid of the constraints of the Guanlong clans and change the situation where the aristocratic families of the Sui Dynasty dominate everything. Although this move may cause temporary disasters, it can bring prosperity to the people of the world for thousands of years. It is an unparalleled plan and a great merit."

Listening to Wei Lianxiang's words, Yang Guang quickly smiled.

"You old sly fellow, you have been saying nice things to please me lately." Yang Guang laughed, and then his expression quickly turned cold, saying, "You are just a bunch of stubborn wastes who are not moved by the trend and do not know how to advance or retreat. Aren't you wiped out by my good nephew?"

"Humph, with the background of my Yang family, the Guanlong clans are nothing to fear. The real scourge of my Great Sui Dynasty is the noble families lurking behind those clans. They are a bunch of blood-sucking parasites. Sooner or later, they will all be crushed to death by me."

It was obvious from Yang Guang's words that he harbored an extremely deep hatred for those aristocratic families.

And it must be said that although Yang Guang acted impatiently, he really had a very long-term vision.

In the Sui Dynasty, those mixed-race families born in the turbulent times were just a minor problem. Although they were supported by some masters with deep background, they could not shake the foundation of the Sui Dynasty.

On the contrary, those noble families that usually don't show off their power suddenly change their thousand-year-old heritage. No one knows whether a few terrifying immortal creatures will jump out of the coffins of these families at any time.

Yang Guang cursed for a while, and then said: "The reason for moving the capital to Luoyang is that this place is the center of the earth where the nine meridians of the Great Sui Dynasty converge. The karst caves here and the three-circle formation of heaven, earth and man have long been a blessed land, and can also generate the essence of heaven and earth. It is my real trump card to sweep the world."

As he spoke, Yang Guang waved his sleeves and a surge of true energy vibrated throughout the entire cave space.

Soon, along with the vibration of Yang Zhao's true energy, it seemed that some mechanism was triggered. In the center of the cave, pieces of extremely thick bluestone walls cracked open, and a blood pool of ten feet in radius appeared in the sight of Yang Guang and Wei Lianxiang.

In that blood pool, not only was there a large amount of essence of heaven and earth, but there were also countless blood evil auras that, like a whirlpool, surrounded a crystal-like divine sword at the bottom of the pool.

"Excalibur, once this artifact is repaired, no one in the world will be my opponent."

Looking at the magic sword at the bottom of the pool, Yang Guang revealed an expression of incomparable obsession, even fanaticism.

But Wei Lianxiang, who was standing next to her, felt an unprecedented sense of brutality and ferocity from the Sky Crystal Sword, which was filled with boundless demonic intent. Even just one glance at it would seem as if all her energy would be sucked away by it.

In Wei Lianxiang's opinion, the Tianjing Sword is no longer a divine weapon.

Compared to a divine weapon, this sword that is already completely blood red is more suitable for the name Tianjing Demon Sword.

This is the weapon of the most evil demon in the world.

Chapter 624: Heavenly Crystal Sword, Blood Demon Puppet

It is rumored that the real Tianjing Sword was transformed from the legs of the ancient goddess Nuwa. It represents all the kindness in the world, has the power to create the world, and can embrace all things with kindness and quell all disasters.

There is also a legend about the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, which were the end of ancient times and the beginning of the pre-Qin period.

The Zhou Emperor Ji Fa, holding the Tianjing Sword, relied on the power of the artifact to subdue a huge number of immortals and gods, command the immortals and gods, and destroy the then arrogant Shang Dynasty.

At the same time, this Tianjing Sword also comes with many powerful ancient skills such as the Tianjing Sword Art, the Emperor's Sword Art, the Tianxin Sword Style, the Tianjing Divine Armor, and the God-Devil Unity Art.

As long as you get this magic sword, you are destined to become the son of Haotian and rule the world.

No one can confirm these rumors.

But Zhao Kuangyin, two hundred years ago, was able to become invincible in the world because he obtained the Tianjing Sword from foreign ruins. He went from being a mere boy from a poor family to becoming the invincible Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty.

In fact, many people think so.

If Zhao Kuangyin had not lost the Tianjing Sword when he was dominating the world, perhaps he would have been able to unify the entire Kyushu on his own.

Why did Yang Guang, the second legitimate son of Yang Jian, dare to covet the throne and even kill his brother and father to ascend to the throne?

It was this Tianjing sword that gave Yang Guang enough confidence.

When Yang Guang was still the Prince of Jin, Maha Ye presented this Tianjing Sword to Yang Guang, and he became Yang Guang's most trusted confidant. Even when Maha Ye had an affair with the Li clan when he was under Yang Guang's command, Yang Guang didn't care at all, because Maha Ye's contributions were so great.

Later, Mahayep died in the Song Dynasty, which was more in line with Yang Guang's wishes.

However, what made Yang Guang feel very sorry was that Zhao Kuangyin two hundred years ago was too arrogant. He actually used the Tianjing Sword to kill immortals and gods, causing the sword's spirituality to be obscured and it did not even recognize him.

Unable to gain recognition from the magic sword, Yang Guang sought other methods and specialized in practicing magic. He began to impose labor service and wage wars that was costly and laborious on the people, gathering immense amounts of blood, evil and resentment in an effort to completely transform the magic sword into a magic weapon.
