Tiger, fire slaughters the Vermilion Bird, and earth crushes the Black Turtle. This is my swordsmanship, the Four Evils Slaying Sword, which breaks through the four celestial beings.>Due to his cultiv...Here are some recommendations:
Jiang Zhenren drank with Du Yexi in Zhuang Guo.
Once a heavy drinker, Du Yeliang has been sober for several years now. Even though he is sitting at the same table with Jiang Wang, after killing Zhuang Gaoxian, he only drinks a few sips.
It's hard to imagine that he was the kind of person who hid bottles of liquor under his bed and drank all his monthly allowance by the beginning of each month, like Daino Tora.
Also drinking with them were Li Jianqiu and Song Qingyue.
Song Qingyue also brought her younger sister, Song Qingzhi.
The little girl sat quietly there eating.
Apart from politely greeting everyone at the beginning, she remained silent throughout the rest of the time, sitting with proper posture and appearing very ladylike.
>
Remembering how she used to spend money to copy Jiang An'an's homework and even threatened to beat her up... The former mischievous little demon is now much more sensible.
Well-behaved children are often unhappy children.
So, all these years, Jiang Wang has always been trying to protect Jiang An'an's innocence. She would rather her be a bit willful—little An'an started understanding things very early on. After her father passed away, after her mother remarried… in the home that Jiang Wang carefully prepared for her, everything was destroyed in that winter disaster.
It wasn't until after the Cloud Kingdom had enjoyed peace for a long time that it began to bustle with activity.
>
And what about Song Qingzhi
With Song Hengjiang's sudden death, Song Qingyue hastily inherited the position of Shuijun. Under Zhuang Gaoxian's oppression, she struggled to hold on, obviously lacking the energy to care for her family. The Water Tribe felt the pressure, but Song Hengjiang's children experienced it most keenly.
Jiang Wang looked at her: "Qingzhi, do you remember An'an You used to be good friends."
Song Qingzhi's eyes lit up, she nodded vigorously.
During their time at the academy, the two of them were indeed very close, being the most troublesome students for the private tutor. As the "little princess" of the Water Prefecture, Song Qingzhi had ample wealth and jewels, often giving gifts to Jiang An'an. Even when the two young girls were separated outside the city, Song Qingzhi gave An'an a protective artifact.
Jiang Wang smiled and said, "When An'an returns, I'll bring her to find you, or I can pick you up and take you to Yun Guo. We can arrange a reunion for the two of you."
Li Jianqiu just smiled.
Tu Yehu complained: "He didn't even say he was bringing her to see me... Where did she go"
Jiang Wang let out a sigh: "He went to practice in the heavenly realm with Ye Zhu, I don't know which realm it is."
Song Qingyue, who also had a younger sister, couldn't help but say, "Has An'an already started cultivating"
Aquatic beings are born with innate spiritual energy, but they generally need to wait until their minds are mature before formally starting their practice. Otherwise, it is very easy to fall into a situation where they cannot control their power and are instead controlled by it.
The uncontrolled rampage of many demonic and aquatic races as ferocious beasts is a painful lesson from history.

As for the human race, there is no need to say more. Before taking the Kaimudan, they must lay a solid foundation and cultivate their bodies well.
From the meridians to Zhou Tian, this is a process of initially establishing one's worldview. It doesn't necessarily get better the earlier it happens.

“Don’t mention it.” Jiang Wang said, “Ye Zhenren laid a solid foundation for her early on, preventing her from enjoying her childhood.”
Song Qingyue said, "There's no need to rush off to cultivate in the heavens right now, is there"
Jiang Wang wore a troubled expression: "My little sister, she's great in every other way, but there's one thing that bothers me—she loves learning too much! Every day it's either reading or practicing calligraphy, or meditating. She writes stacks and stacks of character sheets! I tell her to go play every day, what's there for kids to learn She won't listen, she insists! Even when we went to the heavens last time, I bet even Ye Zhenren was driven mad by her."
Song Qingyue silently glanced at her younger sister.
Song Qingzhi was looked at inexplicably, she touched her cheek, there wasn't a grain of rice. At this time, she didn't yet know what she was about to face.
Today, these people gathered together to drink. It's not just about reminiscing.
The wine has passed the third round.
Li Jianqiu said, "Regarding the topic of Kaimudan we discussed last time, Junior Brother Jiang provided many ideas. We have repeatedly discussed them over this period and have reached a preliminary result. You are now a true immortal with an extraordinary vision, far surpassing us. Could you please review it again and give us some advice"
The creation of Kaimai Dan was the foundation upon which humankind could overthrow the demon clan's Heavenly Court.
Throughout history, the stronger the bloodline, the more difficult it is for offspring to survive.
The Human race can hardly be considered a powerful bloodline. In the ancient era, among all the races in the heavens and myriad domains, they were even one of the weaker ones. However, this also made them easy to proliferate... And the Opening Vein Pill directly supplemented their innate potential, turning their disadvantage into an advantage.
From a single vein to multiple veins, with the same quality of demon veins, the number of opening meridian pills created has increased, and their quality has improved... Until now, a single demon can give birth to a large group of monster beasts, and the production volume of opening meridian pills has significantly increased.
The Human race's research on the Open Meridian Pill has never stopped, with several breakthroughs that have revolutionized its essence.
But its original blood color has never been erased.
The rulers of powerful nations cannot see this bloodshed, nor do the rulers of great nations worry because the cost of Kaimai Pills is borne by small nations.
And all those present were from small countries.
Everyone sitting at this table today has seen the bloody color of the opening meridian pill.
Li Jianqiu once lost everything on Shupipen, calling himself "a prodigal son."
Jiang Wang's worldview shattered on Yuheng Peak, almost collapsing his faith.
Over the past few years, Du Yehu has been stationed in Jiugang City. This is effectively suppressing the largest beast nest within Zhuang Guo's borders.
Song Qingyue need not be mentioned, many people regard aquatic creatures as the raw materials for opening-the-meridians pills.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But on the other hand, Jiang Wang, Du Yexu, and Li Jianqiu were not born with Dao veins. Jiang Wang and Li Jianqiu both opened their meridians by swallowing pills, while Du Yexu was a descendant of ancient warriors who forced his qi and blood to surge through his meridians, narrowly escaping death nine times before achieving success.
Today, Jiang Wanggui is a revered figure in the world. Du Yehu and Li Jianqiu also hold positions of high authority in their respective nations. They all understand the profound significance of Kaiping Dan for humanity. They realize that this matter cannot be simply categorized as right or wrong, and they absolutely cannot respond with brutality—regardless of how well-intentioned their motives may be.
It is common to see that good intentions are often met with evil.
As for the present-day Zhuang state, the Daozong remains "affiliated but not governed," allowing it to govern itself.
The five who consulted on governing the nation were Chancellor Zhang Ren, Prime Minister Li Jianqiu, General Du Yuhou, State Overseer Fu Baosong, Lord Qingjiang Shui, and Admiral Song Qingyue of the Zhuang National Water Army.
And among those present were three of them, who could basically decide the direction of this country.
This also means that they, being young, can start trying to approach their ideal—one cannot say it's an ideal yet, for now, it can only be said to be a beautiful hope.

They hope this country becomes better, that the people live better lives, and that those who come after them don't have to experience the same pain they did. They hope history's mistakes are not repeated, and that past tragedies never happen again.
It is not only the people who have fallen asleep eternally in the Maple Forest City, nor is it just the generations of sacrifices made by the Three Mountains City.

But as Jiang Wang once said when facing the Equal Country - "Before I truly understand some things, before I truly see this world clearly, before I truly think things through and get answers, I don't want to act rashly and hurt this world with my ignorance."
They, being young, did not dare to say they understood the world, nor that their thoughts were absolute truths. They only dared to cautiously try and explore.
Since Gao Xian overthrew the previous regime, they have been in power for half a year, but there have been no changes in national policies. People's lives remain as before. Discussions and speculations about modifying national policies have persisted for a long time, but no concrete actions have been taken.
Jiang Wang came to Zhuang Guo this time, and also wanted to see the results of their discussion.
But there's no need to rush.
"I've just offered some ideas, but the real responsibility lies with you. You bear the weight of thousands of miles of land and tens of millions of people - a living human and aquatic race. Therefore, every action you take must be carefully considered." Jiang Wang said, "Before I hear your discussion results, I want to ask you a few questions."
Li Jianqiu met the gazes of Du Yecho and Song Qingyue, then said, "You ask."
Jiang Wang earnestly asked, "Have you considered the worst-case scenario Would this outcome be acceptable to the people of this country If Zhuang Guo's meridian opening pill system collapses and Zhuang Guo enters a cycle of continuous decline, what will you do Do you have a plan"
As for the reform they had in mind this time, the worst possible outcome, Jiang Wang had already said it – Zhuang Guo's meridian opening pill system would collapse, and Zhuang Guo would enter a cycle of continuous decline.
Li Jianqiu didn't speak, but dipped his finger in wine and wrote a single character on the table—
“Yong.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Du Yexi's childhood dream was "to protect the country and secure the people", but later it became only "to secure the people". He had no affection for Zhuang Ting at all.
Li Jianqiu's ideal is to be the spark of this country. Even at the darkest hour, he wants to light the way for the people of Zhuangdi.
Throughout their lives, they have only ever hoped for the stability of the nation and the well-being of its people. They have never been greedy for power.
As long as the common people of Zhuangguo live the life they aspire to, they don't necessarily have to be great generals or prime ministers.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Especially Du Yejia, if it weren't for Duan Li passing on the Nine River Xuanjia to him, he would rather spend his days guarding An An's gate and working as a guard.
Song Qingyue merely wished for the Shui family to live peacefully and be free from oppression. If she had a choice, she'd also prefer Song Qingzhi to be willful and domineering, while she remained naive and aloof, as long as their father, Song Hengjiang, was still alive.
The characters written on the table represent their considerations for the people. If they cannot improve the lives of the people, then they should hand over power to those who can.
Jiang Wang understood and asked, "Are you sure the policies you've discussed can be implemented in Zhuang Guo Even good governance can turn into bad governance if it cannot be carried out properly."
Li Jianqiu said, "Zhang Ren, the president, neither agrees nor disagrees. Fu Baosong, although estranged from us, supports this matter. That is to say, there is basically no resistance to this."
Jiang Wangsui said: "Last time we sat together and chatted for a long time, but it was just some simple ideas. Now that you've been in power for a while, I'd like to hear the results of your discussions combining national conditions."
"Liang Jianqiu still spoke as a representative: “This national policy adjustment focuses primarily on reforming the beast nest system.”
"The "Opening Meridian Pill" is the foundation of all martial arts power. No force can give it up. Take the Yun Country as an example, they ensure a steady supply of Opening Meridian Pills within their borders through commercial means. This system is irreplaceable and entirely relies on Master Ye Lingxiao's martial prowess and network to prevent them from being strangled. We cannot achieve this."
“In order to ensure the output of Kai Mai Dan, the Beast Nest cannot be dismantled, and the contributions to Daozong Kingdom must not be reduced.”
The most important change we need to make is to inform the populace of the existence of the beast lairs, warn them of the danger posed by the ferocious beasts, and emphasize the necessity of the Qi-Opening Pills.
We need to go town by town, village by village, down to every single person. We have to let everyone know this and give them the right to choose.
“As the ancients said, one may lead the people by means of things, but not by means of knowledge.”
“And what if we are also ‘knowers not to be known’ In the end, hatred ignites the wilderness and overturns everything.
"

“History has proven time and again that even the words of sages are not always right.”
"The national system has been in place for four thousand years, and its laws have remained unchanged throughout history."
> “Beasts need popularity to grow, and the gathering of popularity requires a large amount of human activity. So casualties among the common people near the beast's lair are inevitable.”
During the era of Emperor Gao Xian, to obtain more Kaimudan pills, the imperial court allowed ferocious beasts to consume more human qi. To conceal the origin of the beast nest, they turned a blind eye to the wars between various cities and towns and the ferocious beasts, using the deaths of countless humans to fuel the growth of these beasts. They led the people to believe that the beast nest was a natural phenomenon, existing since creation. They used large cities and armies to protect the selected populace, in turn gaining their support. The people either lived in blissful ignorance, dying without knowing anything, or dedicated their entire lives to striving for a place within the safety of these fortified cities.
"The policy in Xinzhuang is different; we will inform everyone of the dangers posed by ferocious beasts, and everything will be based on voluntary participation. As long as you live in this country, work and live well, that is a contribution to the country. But those who are willing to live in the beast's nest area are even more dedicated to the country."

“We will implement tax reduction or even exemption policies in the Beast Nest City region. We will promulgate a series of encouraging policies, such as allocating more vein opening quotas and Daoist Academy learning quotas to the Beast Nest City region. For example, if citizens are killed by ferocious beasts, they will be eligible for the country's compensation policy…”
"And military training to counter ferocious beasts will be conducted by all local city guards. The refinement of Qi-Opening Pills requires us to allow ferocious beasts to roam. But our demand is that the army must protect the populace. We raise ferocious beasts for their aura, not their lives. While human life can certainly generate more Qi-Opening Pills in a short period, the people are not crops to be harvested at will. Human life cannot be calculated in such a way. Our ultimate goal is for the common people living in the ferocious beast region to live normal lives, ensuring aura while minimizing casualties…

“We will set up an alarm mechanism in various locations to ensure that when the beasts appear, all areas can react quickly...”

Under the candlelight, Li Jianqiu spoke eloquently.
And Du Yeliang and Song Qingyue also occasionally chipped in with a few words.

Jiang Wang listened very attentively.
This world is incredibly well-connected. As soon as a tidbit of information about ascension from the Divine Soaring Realm leaked out, it quickly spread throughout all the heavens and myriad realms.
This world is incredibly closed off, and many ordinary people spend their entire lives within a single village. They may not even know what "transcendence" means, only having bits and pieces of myths and occasional legends about immortals, along with strange dreams in the dead of night. They live unaware of the vastness of the world and die without knowing why they died.
"Make the people know," sounds simple. In reality, it goes against the traditional governance system of today's world states.
A group of young people made a small change in Zhuang State, but it was also a big transformation.
They had no grand ambitions or farsighted vision. They simply grew up from the bottom, asking themselves: why did they suffer What did they need most
Then try to respond.
>
Thus, back and forth we went, constantly revising the plan. Which city-region should be the first to implement it How would we house those unwilling to live in the beast dens What could they use to sustain themselves after the move…
The candles grew shorter and shorter, but their voices remained excitedly high.
Even the young flame can cross the long night.
Xiao Qingzhi had fallen asleep on the table long ago, Song Qingyao's robe covering her.
"Alright, that's all for today. It's best to proceed this way peacefully. If necessary, I will provide military support. Good luck!"

Jiang Wang finally got up and walked to the door.
He wanted to say—I wonder if this world, the new world, begins right now.
But he didn't say anything.
This is the story of young people who, after enduring a difficult adolescence, finally attempt to step through the door for the first time. This takes place in a small country, where change is almost imperceptible.
Jiang Wang gently pushed, and sunlight squeezed in.
