Chapter 186: Beans Create Soldiers, Five Emperors

Early in the morning, just as the gray sky began to lighten, Xiaoshi Town Martial Arts Academy welcomed guests.

After knocking on the door three times, Mo Tianheng opened it.

Outside the door, the Wu family's steward, wearing a plain silk gown, clasped his fists and bowed to Mo Tianheng, "Hello, Mr. Mo."

Li Jianhu was kicked out of the Wu family yesterday, so Manager Wu naturally needs to finish the remaining matters.

For example, let Li Jianhu sign the funeral compensation for his father and acknowledge the matter.

Originally, Manager Wu brought a few servants with him to find the Li family to sign at night, but when they arrived, they found that the Li family was empty.

After some inquiries, I found out that Li Jianhu and his family had temporarily moved to the Martial Arts Academy in Xiaoshi Town.

Mo Tianheng hummed.

Manager Wu frowned slightly, but soon turned his brows into a smile.

Although Mo Tianheng was a fool and had offended the He family of Shantong Prefecture, the Hongshan Martial Arts School behind him protected him.

It is better to have less trouble than more. The He family doesn't touch Mo Tianheng, a useless person, so why should a small fry like me offend Hongshan Martial Arts School?

"I came here today to look for Li Jianhu. He came to your house yesterday to ask for money for his father's funeral. It wasn't that I didn't want to give it, but he just didn't want to sign the agreement."

As he spoke, Manager Wu took out a contract and an ingot of silver.

Mo Tianheng looked at the silver. There were only ten taels, not fifty taels.

Manager Wu said with a smile, "Mr. Mo, please ask Li Jianhu to come out and sign the pledge, and we can settle this matter."

He put emphasis on the word "finish".

In his opinion, the matter was settled, which meant that the Wu family would not pursue the fault of this young boy Li Jianhu, which was already a great favor. If he didn't sign, the matter would not be over!
Mo Tianheng did not go to find Li Jianhu, but said, "If a ninth-rank warrior dies in a mine, shouldn't he be compensated fifty taels?"

He is a teacher at the martial arts academy in Xiaoshi Town. He teaches children from mining families and naturally knows the rules.

The smile on Manager Wu's face froze and turned cold, "The rules have been changed."

"Who changed it?"

Manager Wu smiled coldly. He had realized that this idiot had not been beaten enough by the He family in Shantong Mansion, and he still wanted to meddle in other people's business today!
However, he could not afford the fifty taels. Today, Mo Tianheng brought his disciple Li Jianhu to get the silver. What would he do if he brought another one tomorrow?
"You don't need to worry about this, just take care of yourself!"

Manager Wu had a cold expression on his face, and he looked intentionally towards Mo Tianheng's dantian. The threat in his expression was self-evident.

Mo Tianheng smiled instead, "You don't have to worry about my affairs. I, Mo Tianheng, am naturally nosy. I was like that before, and I am still like that now!"

After saying that, he shook his sleeves, went straight back into the house, and slammed the door shut.

Manager Wu stood in front of the martial arts academy, his expression changed for a moment, but he finally resisted the urge to smash the place up.

This martial arts academy is not only under the jurisdiction of the government, but also a place where all the miners' children in Xiaoshi Town seek a way out. If we destroy this place, today's affairs will not end well. It is better to use other means.

He stood outside the door and snorted, "Idiots are always idiots!"

Inside the house, the mother and son of the Li family heard the noise outside at the beginning. Li Jianhu was lying on a bed made of several tables. He looked at Mo Tianheng who came in with a complicated expression. He had a thousand words to say, but in the end only two words.

"teacher……"

Mo Tianheng's smile remained unchanged, his expression became more relaxed, and he said, "Tomorrow I will find a carriage and take you to Shantong Mansion for treatment."

He thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid the three-day journey will be a bit bumpy, but I'm familiar with the road to Shantong Mansion."

······
Zhou House.

Above the training ground, the towering martial arts true body sat on a bloody cloud as its throne. The surging power swept up a three-acre cyclone in the air. An endless stream of morning glow and purple air fell down, forming a purple gauze celestial robe that was draped over everyone.

When this purple gauze dress fell onto his body, it immediately penetrated his bones and flesh and merged into his Dantian, which was a half-real and half-virtual sea of ​​qi.

Warmth, peace, vastness...

All kinds of perceptions of heaven and earth are fed back into the heart, making everyone's martial arts spirit more solid.

Suddenly, Zhou Tieyi let out a long roar, and the condensed Red Emperor statue in his Dantian Qi Sea condensed three more dragon seals. A total of twelve dragon seals were fully comprehended, which turned into a twelve-seal robe, making the Red Emperor statue the same as the Green Emperor statue.

The Red Emperor controls the power of raging fire and cooking in oil.

He first sent a small pawn across the river, forcing the Confucians to surrender, then he founded the Railway Chamber of Commerce, taking the first step towards world reform. He then used the Tianjing News as an opportunity to subdue many business leaders, forcing the novelist to come and seek peace.

Each of these things is a form of practice, and is something that many people cannot accomplish in their entire lives. Changes in luck will naturally be reflected in the statue of the Red Emperor.

With the complete twelve-chapter statue of the Red Emperor, and with many of his personal guards breaking through to the seventh rank, the three acres of auspicious blood clouds regenerated and expanded outward by one acre!
Zhou Tieyi retracted his fist, his eyes shining brightly, and he looked at the two men separately, making people dare not look directly at him.

"Congratulations, young master, your martial arts have reached a new level, surpassing all the heroes in the world!"

As Zhou Tieyi's number one fighter and number one Zhou fan, A Da was the first to react.

Zhou Tieyi curled his lips. This boy Ada was good in every way except that he was too dry and had no level.

It’s okay to listen to it once or twice, but after listening to it too much, I feel embarrassed.

Suddenly he thought of the Emperor of Daxia. Did he think the same way?

Zhou Tieyi smiled. If he really thought so, he could give His Majesty the Great Xia a surprise from time to time to keep him interested in him...

Why does it seem more and more weird the more I think about it?

No wonder some people sigh that generals have been like beauties since ancient times.

Isn’t this great general and powerful minister a beauty in the eyes of the king?

Zhou Tieyi thought of this and pouted at himself.

Zhou Tieyi, you are despicable!
How can one humiliate oneself like this for the sake of power?
After cursing himself, Zhou Tieyi felt better again.

This is the self-psychotherapy of civil servants.

Power, what a wonderful thing it is.

After coming to power, you are the only one who can scold yourself in this world, no one else can scold you.

In one word, cool!

Zhou Tieyi looked at Ah Da, thinking that this kid Yulongjie actually dared to laugh at him, so he patted Ah Da's shoulder kindly and said, "Good, come to my room tomorrow night, I have a reward for you, young master."

The smile on Ada's face froze, half happy and half sad.

What makes me happy is that the young master mentioned the reward, which really is a great opportunity.

I am worried about you, young master. I am almost 28 years old. Even though warriors can get married later, you can't ruin my reputation!
Sure enough, after hearing this, many of the guards' expressions changed slightly.

No wonder you, Zhou Moushen, were able to become the chief of the personal guard!

If you are patient, the power will come to you!

After teasing A Da, Zhou Tieyi hummed a little tune and walked towards his brother's military camp.

The military workshop in the Zhou Mansion was specially vacated for Zhou Tieyi for the purpose of forging five chess pieces symbolizing the Five Emperors.

In the military workshop, a complex Five Emperors altar had been built for ten days.

During these ten days, Miaoyu used the altar as an opportunity to receive the true meaning of the Five Emperors.

Last time, when she built the altar ritual and wrote a document, she was able to draw on the power of the Great Xia Emperor and infuse it with talismans. That was because the Great Xia Emperor took the initiative to pay attention.

Under normal circumstances, an altar, especially one that draws upon the true meaning of the Five Emperors, would require at least ten days or half a month of fasting and offering rituals in order to function properly.

And the prerequisite is that there must be a high-level master or a great person in charge.

In the huge Yin-Yang fish eyes, Zhou's mother was wearing an ink-colored Taoist robe and sitting on the Yang fish. She had the face of a young girl and her eyes were as smart as fish. So many years had passed, although she was trapped in the Zhou Mansion.

But as Gongshu Sheng said, Zhou's mother had never left the mountain, so she was naturally able to maintain her childlike innocence.

There are gains and losses, who can really calculate everything?

Miaoyu was still wearing the apricot-yellow Taoist robe. She recited the "Five Emperors' Precious Edicts" in a low voice, drawing the true meaning of the Five Emperors to fall continuously.

Although these ten days of fasting and offering sacrifices were hard for her, they were actually a good thing.

At least my mind has calmed down again, and I can now truly begin to comprehend the [Five Emperors' Precious Edicts].

Outside the fish eye, Zhou Tiege looked solemn, gathering his strength. The materials around him had been collected one by one and were ready.

Among them were the prince's jade pendant, the colorful stones Zhou Tieyi obtained from the salt merchants, and a large amount of refined colorful sand.

Zhou Tieyi calmed his mind, recited the opening of the Five Emperors' Precious Edict in his mind, and then stepped into the altar.

When his feet stepped onto the line between the altar and the outside world, he clearly felt the changes.

Five vast wills were constantly drawn into the altar, forming a powerful invisible pressure that made people want to bow down.

His mind moved, and his Qi and blood manifested, but this time he did not manifest his true martial arts body, but used his Qi and blood to manifest the Green Emperor, the Red Emperor, and the rather charming Yellow Emperor. The three Five Emperors' statues appeared, and immediately guided three of their wills, greatly reducing the pressure in the altar.

Mother Zhou smiled slightly and looked at Miaoyu, "I will guide the White Emperor's will, and you will guide the Black Emperor's will."

Mother Zhou has been practicing the Five Emperors' Treasure Edict for twenty years. In fact, she can completely guide the changes in the entire altar, but doing so would mean that Zhou Tieyi and Miaoyu would lose an opportunity.

"Yes, uncle."

Miaoyu nodded.

[The Treasured Edicts of the Five Emperors] do not necessarily have to start with the Green Emperor. The five elements rotate endlessly, without beginning or end, so you can start with any emperor.

The Black Emperor represents the virtue of water and is most suitable for Miaoyu, the first and direct descendant of Taiyi Temple.

As Mother Zhou's mind moved, a statue of the White Emperor appeared, wearing a twelve-chapter robe and holding a sword.

Compared to Zhou Tieyi, Zhou's mother's image of Baidi is almost real. What's even more shocking is that Baidi's facial features are exactly the same as Zhou's mother's!
Miaoyu was much worse. Just like Zhou Tieyi, who could only condense the afterglow of the Yellow Emperor's image, behind her was only a vague image of the Black Emperor.

The manifestation of the Five Emperors' images, even if it did not completely balance the five elements, was enough to channel the power of the five elements within the altar.

Inside the altar, the true meanings of the Five Emperors are all controlled by someone. The majestic Five Elements ancestral Qi transforms into gorgeous five colors, constantly flowing and transforming into each other, making it difficult to judge who has more and who has less.

Just as Zhou Tiege taught Zhou Tieyi, the five elements between heaven and earth have never been truly balanced.

The purpose of balancing the five elements is to enable practitioners to better control the five elements.

Zhou Tieyi walked to the body of the Yangyu. After ten days of practice, he had already understood how to sacrifice the five chess pieces.

Taoism has a method called "Throwing beans to create soldiers".

This method is similar to the Buddhist "Buddha Kingdom in the Palm". If it is successfully practiced, it will be enough to roam the world.

Among the four of them, only Mother Zhou, who had practiced Taoism for the longest time, had mastered this method.

Today I will teach this method to three people, and use this method as a basis to evolve the Five Emperors and Generals!
Zhou Tieyi stretched out his hand and flipped it. He had already gained initial spiritual power, and the white jade chessboard hidden in the space around him fell among the four people.

On the white jade chessboard, the peach and plum trees are growing vigorously. With the help of [Taming of Plants], this spiritual tree has already recognized Zhou Tieyi as its master.

The tender branches penetrated into the power of thunder and the majestic energy, turning the entire tree's trunk into pure white, and above this white were streaks of green lightning.

The woven longitude and latitude lines have initially stabilized the space. At the core of the power of thunder, white pieces are gathered together, and at the core of the great energy, black pieces are gathered together.

Zhou Tieyi reached out and picked up a black piece condensed from the great energy of righteousness.

Zhou Tiege also took action and picked up a white piece condensed with the power of thunder.

The two brothers were originally very similar in spirit, and with the help of the authority of [Blood God] and [Martial Arts], after Zhou Tieyi's deliberate adjustments, they became like one person.

At the moment the black and white pieces collide, there is both repulsion and attraction, just like the righteousness and thunder force entangled in the chessboard.

Mother Zhou used her fingers as pens, guiding the five elements of ancestral qi to write a magnificent article on the great way in front of her.

This great article is entirely based on the Dragon Chapter. Each character is constantly changing, one after another. Even if there are five characters connected, they are enough to explain a rule of heaven and earth that is difficult to record in ordinary language.

Zhou Tieyi had written the Spring Thunder Talisman before, so he naturally knew how difficult it was to write an article entirely composed of dragon symbols.

Just think about the [Five Emperors Bow] that you have not been able to realize in the real world.

While writing, Zhou's mother even had enough energy to explain to the three people.

"Taoist 'celestial phenomena', relying on the power of celestial phenomena is only the first level."

Zhou Tieyi nodded. He knew that his mother was talking about how he used the "Spring Thunder Talisman" to attract spring thunder.

If you just regard this as the entire ability of "Tian Xiang", you will probably be in trouble when you encounter a real third-grade "Tian Xiang".

"The second realm, the unity of heaven and man, the birth of all things."

Heaven is Yang, man is Yin, and when Yin and Yang interact in harmony, all things can be created.

As Zhou's mother finished speaking, the thirty-six-character dragon seal she had written was just completed. One by one, the dragon seals turned into rules, guiding the White Emperor's true intention, and fell on the black and white chess pieces held by Zhou Tieyi and Zhou Tiege.

A mysterious feeling lingered in the hearts of the two brothers.

The first intuitive feeling Zhou Tieyi had was like a witch in the wild world casting [Divine Descent], as if he was one with the heaven and earth, and he himself seemed endless and growing every moment.

However, as it grows, it will continue to disappear in the vast universe.

After more careful consideration, Zhou Tieyi discovered that although the two were similar, their final evolutionary directions were very different.

[God descended] and landed above the 'sky', and eventually God and Tao became one, turning into a set of rules.

But the "celestial phenomena" fell on "man", condensing the rules of heaven and earth and at the same time giving them human nature.

The black and white chess piece turned from death to life at the moment of fusion.

Like a fetus, it was beating in the hands of the two brothers.

With life, there are countless possibilities. Countless weapon-smithing masters have consumed huge amounts of natural treasures, but they can only try to match them continuously through constant attempts, hoping to draw out the dragon emblem from the natural treasures, connect them, and evolve spirituality.

Mother Zhou used the technique of [casting beans to create soldiers] and the true meaning of the Five Emperors to endow the chess pieces with the spirituality of the Five Emperors. This is the best forging embryo!
Grasping this inspiration, Zhou Tiege stretched out his hand, and the purple thunder turned into a heavy hammer. Then he used the national destiny and the ancestral qi of the Five Emperors as flesh and blood, and the five-colored stones and five-colored sands as the skeleton and skin, and began to forge the tool with great concentration.

He swung the hammer as if he was striking an iron piece, and the purple power of thunder continuously guided the black and white chess piece to transform into a human form.

First the bones, then the five internal organs, muscles, then the meridians, skin, and finally even the five senses appeared one by one.

When you are good at forging weapons, destiny will appear.

After forging a "man", Zhou Tiege was completely absorbed in it. He picked up another chess piece as if tireless, and Zhou Tieyi hurried to follow.

With the first human figure as a foundation, Zhou Tiege was faster and completed four human figures one after another.

During this process, the more than sixty pieces of jade bones that had originally condensed in Zhou Tiege's body underwent some miraculous changes. On each piece of jade bone, the Five Emperors' Dragon Seal was faintly emerging, but it had not yet taken shape to demonstrate its power.

At the same time, in his mind, the black and white words of life and death were constantly changing as he forged them, and they actually slowly broke free from the cage that Che Wenyuan and Sima Liang had originally comprehended.

Zhou's mother naturally watched her son's progress with a smile.

She originally thought that her eldest son would make a fortune by taking advantage of this opportunity to comprehend part of the true meaning of the Five Emperors, but she did not expect that her eldest son had another opportunity and even comprehended the meaning of life and death.

With a specific "person", there is no need to remind. The three statues of the Five Emperors behind Zhou Tieyi fell directly into the "person", embracing the flesh and blood spirit.

The next moment, three 'people' that were a fusion of the Five Emperors' statues opened their eyes. They had similar facial features, just like the twin brothers of Zhou Tieyi and Zhou Tiege.

However, everyone's temperament is very special, and the difference can be seen at a glance.

Colorful light was rising up and was about to soar into the sky, and large patches of clouds were gathering in the sky.

In the rosy glow, a dragon representing the nation's destiny looms, accompanied by the shadows of the Five Emperors, and is about to rise to show its presence to all living beings.

The magic weapon is born, with natural sensitivity!
Zhou Tiege said this when he was discussing the peerless magic weapon with his brother.

There are two major elements to a peerless magic weapon: the first is luck, and the second is spirituality.

Although the magic weapon in front of us is incomplete and in a weak stage, it has great luck and spirituality. Naturally, it is a peerless magic weapon!

However, this sensation has not yet completely merged with heaven and earth.

Then Zhou's mother sighed, "The time is not right."

Her voice once again redefined the rules of this small world, just like that night when she made the fish change their nature and swim in the air.

The glow was suppressed before it could spread out from Zhou Mansion.

Zhou Tieyi looked at his mother.

On that day at Liuhu Lake, I saw my mother changing the celestial phenomena. At that time, I didn’t know much about the secrets of spiritual practice, so although I was amazed, I felt that any third-level celestial phenomenon should be able to do it.

But as I learned about my mother's identity, I understood that the Confucian sage wanted to replace the will of Heaven with his own heart.

In addition, my mother can now suppress the birth of a magic weapon with just one word.

Zhou Tieyi finally understood why the Lord of Daming Palace said that the Heavenly Master of Xuandu Mountain only wanted a sub-sage.

At the same time, the shadows of three statues of the Five Emperors appeared behind Zhou Tiege.

When a military strategist "forges weapons", every time he forges a real and spiritual weapon, he will receive feedback and condense the phantom of the weapon. If necessary, he can turn the phantom into reality and temporarily exert a part of the power of the weapon.

The stronger the forged weapon is, the more feedback it will give to the military strategist, and the greater the power of the weapon will be able to be unleashed.

Zhou Tiege opened his eyes and looked at the other two "magic weapons" that had not been fully awakened. He did not force it. The way of heaven is imperfect, and there is no such thing as perfection in one go.

"Pick a name."

Zhou Tieyi looked at the three statues of the Five Emperors, thought for a moment and said, "'Five Emperors and Divine Generals'."
