Chapter 493 The First Tribulation

Inside the Martial Arts Pavilion.

Yang Zhiyuan slowly put down the Taoist classics in his hand, and the air seemed to be filled with a sense of calmness and solemnity.

He had been immersed in the principles contained in this method for a long time, and his mental pressure was also great.

After this moment, Yang Zhiyuan felt relieved.

He walked to the window with transparent glass, his eyes penetrated the soft and prosperous light and shadow, and stared at the prosperous scene outside the window.

The prosperity of the imperial city was still brilliant at night, the crowds were flowing, and everyone's face was filled with peace and satisfaction.

This is not just a scene of a city, but also a silhouette of this era.

"Did you see it... Grandpa..."

Yang Zhiyuan whispered in a low voice, as if he was talking to the soul of another world.

There was a subtle tremor in his voice, which was a deep nostalgia for the past years.

"The world now is just like what you once dreamed of, everyone can eat well, can wear warm clothes, and everyone has their own responsibilities."

Yang Zhiyuan's eyes flashed with complex emotions, and his heart was both satisfied and full of regrets.

Satisfied because he knew that the Buddha Kingdom was gradually becoming a reality, just like the ideal world he pursued;

Unfortunately, the old man who raised him to grow up was no longer there.

He murmured, looking at the bustling crowd in the imperial city.

"Everyone has the opportunity to embark on the path of cultivation, and the world... seems to be moving towards a better future..."

The world he expected in his heart was the appearance of the Buddha Kingdom now.

Yang Zhiyuan thought,

If my grandfather was still alive, he would be very happy.

Thinking of this, his heart became heavier.

Although the Buddha Kingdom is prosperous now, as a member of the Martial Arts Pavilion, plus his experience in the army, he can also access many secrets that ordinary people cannot touch.

For example, he knows a lot about the void.

He knows deeply that the prosperity in front of him now may be just a flash in the pan, just the struggle and explosion of this world before its death.

The world, all things, and the common people, the final result will eventually be buried in the void.

Yang Zhiyuan sighed deeply, turned around, turned his back to the bustling outside the window, and walked towards his desk work.

Although he was only responsible for compiling martial arts books in a small part of the entire project, the responsibility he undertook was not easy.

On the surface, his task seemed to be to simply organize and clarify these ancient martial arts materials.

At first glance, such a task was not heavy, as if it could be completed by just flipping through and reading, deleting and revising.

However, the truth was much more complicated than imagined.

Martial arts classics often seemed to be cut off when they reached the third realm, and there seemed to be no way to go.

However, Yang Zhiyuan knew that the wisdom of the predecessors was like an endless treasure, and each set of leg techniques had its own unique practice method.

What he needed to do was to dig deep into the essence of these Taoist methods that had been passed down since ancient times and gather the scattered knowledge again.

Yang Zhiyuan was a practitioner who was extremely serious about his work. He chose the most rigorous way - to practice each martial art personally. Only after his own verification and confirmation of its effectiveness would he write it down.

This approach is undoubtedly extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming, but it also ensures the quality and practicality of the martial arts books compiled.

Although the progress is not fast, no one will blame it.

In the Martial Arts Pavilion, many scholars also chose this way,

because they know that martial arts knowledge is not only about the accumulation of knowledge, but also about the accumulation of practice.

Although Yang Zhiyuan's work is slow, it is the most solid and reliable.

Every word and every comment of his contains profound understanding and practical experience,

which has immeasurable value for the inheritance and development of the entire martial arts.

Yang Zhiyuan's heart has always been loaded with something since the moment he stepped into the Buddhist Kingdom.

Those many caves and blessed places in the outer city are where his father, Yongwang Yang Jixin, practiced in seclusion.

But he did not intend to cause trouble.

After seeing everything in the Buddhist Kingdom over the years, Yang Zhiyuan gradually lost his former thoughts of revenge.

The ancestral tomb of the Yang family is nothing.

What difference does it make where the mother is buried?

Over the years, he has been planning to sever his relationship with the Tianyuan Dynasty and devote himself to the Buddhist Kingdom.

He also wants to see the day when everyone is truly like a dragon in the future!

Although his current strength has reached the realm of heaven and man, in this huge Buddhist Kingdom, his martial arts cultivation can also be ranked among the top 100.

After all, among the seven realms of martial arts, the realm of heaven and man has reached the height of the sixth realm.

Yang Zhiyuan is convinced that among the martial artists in the realm of heaven and man that he knows, most of the heaven and man masters are almost veteran masters who have cultivated to the level of Venerable for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

Their martial arts cultivation is either the physical strength is extremely strong, or the power of the soul is fed back to the physical body.

Only a few people have truly started from scratch,

step by step, through their own efforts and practice, to reach today's realm.

Including the military merits accumulated during the war, Yang Zhiyuan plans to accumulate for a few more years,

in order to exchange for "Heaven and Earth's Ending Edge and Extinction of Immortals".

Although he also wanted to have a chance to ask the Buddha Emperor to personally customize a martial arts technique for him,

But now is no longer a war period, and there is basically no chance to accumulate such huge achievements.

Just when Yang Zhiyuan was busy,

Suddenly, there was a flash of light and shadow in Zhuanwu Pavilion, and two officials wearing luxurious court uniforms slowly walked into it.

Zhuanwu Pavilion belongs directly to the Buddha Emperor. It is located in a remote place and few people visit it on weekdays.

These two officials have deep auras, and they are obviously masters of dual cultivation who have reached the ultimate level of the six realms. Their arrival is undoubtedly unusual.

The actions of the two officials were quite cautious. They did not disturb the scholars of Zhanwu Pavilion who were compiling martial arts books, but directly handed a golden imperial edict to Yuan Shun, the master of Zhanwu Pavilion.

Yuan Shun is Xie Que's adoptive father, but he is famous for his outstanding martial arts talent.

In just a few years, he has become one of the masters at the heavenly level.

His pursuit of martial arts is almost obsessive, and there is nothing else.

Now, because he was trusted by the Buddha Emperor, he was in charge of the Martial Arts Pavilion in order to explore a new world on the road above the Martial God.

Yuan Shun took the imperial edict and browsed it briefly.

Then he put it away silently.

At this moment, Yang Zhiyuan, who was busy, also keenly caught a message coming into his ears:

"Scholar Yang, because you were born in the military, there are some matters that need to be entrusted to you..."

After Yang Zhiyuan heard this, he walked out of the Zhanwu Pavilion directly, stepped onto a void battleship placed in front of the loft, and broke through the void in an instant.

This imperial edict was issued by Xie Que himself, and its content was for Yang Zhiyuan to return to the army to conduct a martial arts experiment called "Military Killing Fist".

This martial art seems to be specially designed for the military.

Once the soldiers practice, they can combine their Qi and blood with their own thoughts to exert incredible power.

Regarding this kind of combined attack military formation martial arts, there are people in Zhuanwu Pavilion who have been studying it.

So Jerry Yang didn't seem surprised after receiving the news.

And this is Xie Que's first step to prove his idea.

Regarding the Son of Luck, according to what Da Antian said,

He must be favored by heaven and earth. Ordinary disasters cannot kill him, and enemies more powerful than him will be restrained everywhere.

And since the Son of Destiny is a product used to deal with the void,

There is certainly no way for it to be infected by the void.

Xie Que wanted to see if Yang Zhiyuan was really immune to being infected by void energy.

If that was the case, he wanted to know what kind of power could stop the invasion of void energy.

Because he was afraid of the way of heaven, Xie Que did not directly inject a void energy into Yang Zhiyuan's body.

Instead, he plans to see along the way whether this "son of luck" can really turn danger into good fortune and be immune to all evils.

…

The outer city area, Tianyuan Blessed Land, is where the cave mansion that Tianyuan Dynasty spent almost all its resources was developed.

The blessed land here stretches for thirty miles. Although it is not big, judging from the concentration of spiritual energy, such a cave is enough for seven venerables to practice here.

Tianyuan Emperor Yang Tai and Yong Wang Yang Jixin, the two top figures of the dynasty, were practicing in seclusion there.

However, shortly after the void battleship from Zhuanwu Pavilion left, Yang Tai suddenly opened his eyes.

The huge expense of purchasing this cave made the entourage of the Tianyuan Dynasty use up almost all their supplies. It is obvious how tight their resources are now.

For Yang Tai, the most important thing at the moment is how to earn enough wealth in the land of Buddha.

Just now, he received exciting news.

This news came from his fourth son, the fourth prince in the former dynasty.

The fourth prince joined the army in the Armed Guards, and with their support, he successfully broke through to the martial arts world.

And held the position of a minor leader in the Armed Guards.

The news from the fourth son was that he accidentally discovered a spiritual vein in the wild.

Although his human-immortal cultivation is unable to use this spiritual vein,

But if it can be extracted, it may be able to inject fresh blood into the Tianyuan Dynasty, which is currently lacking in resources.

Thinking of this, Yang Tai immediately called Yang Jixin and decided to go together to see the specific situation of the spiritual vein.

The two people's figures flashed, turned into two streams of light, and quickly rushed towards the location mentioned by the fourth son.

…

Yang Zhiyuan took the void battleship and it was hundreds of millions of miles away.

He soon arrived at the frontline position of Wubingwei, which is now located in Wuyang Mountain.

The work in Zhenwu Pavilion is arduous. Although he is powerful, he is still under twenty years old.

It is also a good choice to come out to relax and meet your comrades.

Not all of those soldiers are geniuses, so let them spread this martial arts and let them learn it.

It will take at least three months.

Yang Zhiyuan does not intend to just wait in the front line, but intends to exert his own strength.

The general in position here was Yang Zhiyuan’s former boss.

The two of them had known each other for a long time, and he was quite moved when he saw that Yang Zhiyuan went to the Imperial City and became a bachelor of Zhanwu Pavilion.

Yang Zhiyuan's talent is something he has rarely seen so far. In a few years, he can cross a threshold that others may not be able to cross in thousands of years.

Yang Zhiyuan also took the initiative to explain his intention to his boss.

The other party also agreed very readily.

After all, Wuyang Mountain, as the front line against the Advent Sect and Xinghe Palace, is under great pressure.

They often face sneak attacks from those guys.

That is why he was extremely welcoming to a powerful person like Yang Zhiyuan.

Yang Zhiyuan did not disappoint him.

In just three days, he wiped out the scattered Xinghe Palace strongmen who were eyeing him outside several void cracks.

After another month, his reputation had spread throughout the entire front line.

And because of this, Yang Zhiyuan's name spread to the ears of Yang Tai and Yang Jixin who were refining their spiritual veins not far away.

Although Yang Jixin had been away from home for a long time, he still knew that the palace was bombed and the princess was killed.

He had been looking for Yang Zhiyuan's whereabouts for many years.

But after knowing that he seemed to have joined the Wuyuan Guard, he no longer dared to pursue him.

Unexpectedly, it was now heard again.

In order to find out whether this "General Yang" was really his rebellious son,

Yang Jixin spent a lot of money to get all the information about Yang Zhiyuan.

And after comparison, he could almost confirm that the other party was his rebellious son!

Since the resources of the Tianyuan Dynasty were already scarce, Yang Jixin did not practice martial arts in both ways.

Only Yang Tai practiced one martial art, and he had already practiced it to the fifth level of human immortal.

Yang Ji thought about it and realized that he was no match for this rebellious son, so he told his brother about this matter frankly.

Yang Tai was also very surprised after hearing this.

He did not think that he and Yang Zhiyuan had any irreconcilable hatred.

At that time, Yang Jixin only needed to agree to move his mother Qingyi to the ancestral tomb of the Yang family.

And Yang Zhiyuan, such a "nephew" who was in a high position and had amazing talent, of course he had to take him back to his account.

Yang Jixin did not feel anything about this because he had cut off his emotions and desires.

In his opinion, no family affection could beat the immediate interests.

After they carefully planned it, they finally met Yang Zhiyuan in the army.

What Yang Tai did not expect was that Yang Zhiyuan did not seem to want to pay attention to them at all.

Yang Zhiyuan responded indifferently to Yang Jixin's recognition, just like a stranger.

The soldiers just thought that the two venerables wanted to get involved with the Grand Secretary of the Military Affairs Pavilion, so they started to laugh at them.

This made Yang Jixin embarrassed.

Although he was ruthless, he still had a sense of shame.

Yang Tai thought more deeply.

Since Yang Zhiyuan did not intend to recognize them, it meant that Yang Zhiyuan might still have some grudges in his heart.

If this grudge broke out, perhaps it would not be just Princess Qing who died.

After some discussion, the two planned to kill Yang Zhiyuan!

And this was exactly what Xie Que wanted to see.

This was the first calamity of the son of destiny!

After all, the attack of the two venerables was something Yang Zhiyuan could not withstand with his strength! (End of this chapter)
