If you go to the Southern Song Dynasty, you can go find the Southern Emperor first, as he is the easiest to find.
Then, they went to find Zhong Shentong.
Then, they directly announced that they would challenge the other five masters.
And for the last one, you can put your choice on Hong Qigong, the Northern Beggar.
He discovered the Imperial Seal of the State in a seemingly casual manner.
Given Hong Qigong's chivalry and his ideals, he would surely want to keep the Imperial Seal of the State and give it to the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.
So, you just need to seriously injure him, don't kill him.
Next, we need to get those beggars to spread the word about these things.
Upon hearing this, Lin Pingzhi's face showed a thoughtful expression.
"I understand, senior. Don't worry, I will definitely do it!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan simply smiled.
...............................
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. On the third day, Lin Pingzhi, carrying the things given to him by Zhang Chulan, left Qixia Town and headed straight for the Southern Song Dynasty.
At this moment, Li Jianshen frowned as he looked at this scene and said:
"Zhang Chulan, why do we have to go to the Song Dynasty? Can't we go to the Ming Dynasty or somewhere else?"
Zhang Chulan: "Sword God Li, you must first understand one thing, which is that these four dynasties each have their own characteristics!"
In the Ming Dynasty, the Embroidered Uniform Guards were everywhere, along with many martial arts masters.
At that time, even if Lin Pingzhi is strong enough, he won't be able to withstand the siege of so many people.
Especially some people like to use poison or hidden weapons; this kid is likely to fall for it.
As for the Yuan Dynasty, there are only a few Han Chinese there. If he were to go there, it would easily cause trouble.
As for the Qing Dynasty, well, they were similar to the Yuan Dynasty, or even more ruthless.
If he goes like this, he'll probably be chased by a large army.
By then, he'll be exhausted.
The situation was different here. Because the Song Dynasty was divided into two, the Southern Song Dynasty was not very strong.
In addition, constrained by the surrounding small countries, they simply cannot spare much energy.
As for those martial arts practitioners, well, probably not many people will care.
At the very least, they might not fully believe it until the four great dynasties take action!
Chapter 635 The Reclusive Fisherman of Diancang, the Nameless Woodcutter
On the edge of the Southern Song Dynasty, within the Dali Kingdom, lies a place that appears to be a land of beautiful mountains and clear waters.
A young man carrying a black sword arrived here.
"Halt! This place is already occupied, young man, you'd better leave!"
Upon hearing this, the figure chuckled softly and then said:
"Are you one of the four disciples under the Southern Emperor?"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression changed, and he said:
"who are you?"
Upon hearing this, the boy's lips curled slightly, and he said:
"At least we didn't make a mistake. It seems the information from over there was accurate!"
After saying this, the boy turned to the man in front of him who was wearing a straw hat and fishing, and said:
"Senior, my name is Lin Pingzhi, from the Ming Dynasty. I have come here to witness the extraordinary skills of the Five Great Masters of the Song Dynasty!"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression immediately turned sour.
"Hmph! My master wouldn't fight with a junior like you. Besides, my master has already become a monk and is no longer the Southern Emperor. He certainly won't fight you. Leave!"
Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi shook his head, chuckled, and said:
"Heh, that's impossible. You can only let me leave if you can defeat me, otherwise... heh...!"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man before him, a scholar from Diancang known for his fishing, woodcutting, farming, and reading, revealed a cold smile on his face:
"Hehe, if you don't want to leave on your own, then don't blame us for being impolite!"
I, an old man, will personally take care of you and get you out of here!
After saying that, he flicked the fishing rod in his hand, and in an instant, the fishhook flew directly out of the water.
Then, like a shooting star, it headed straight for Lin Pingzhi.
Seeing this, Lin Pingzhi smiled slightly and said:
"Innate Realm, no wonder you were one of the Southern Emperor's four great guards back then. However, your strength is far too weak!"
After saying that, Lin Pingzhi swung his black sword.
Instantly, a powerful sword aura descended upon it.
"Pfft..."
Instantly, the attack was torn apart and then turned into fragments.
The fishing line also broke in mid-air.
Seeing this, Lin Pingzhi looked at Diancang Yuyin and said with a smile:
"Do you intend to continue? If you do, then I will no longer be able to hold back!"
Upon hearing this, Diancang Yuyin's expression became extremely solemn, and he looked at Lin Pingzhi and said:
"What terrifying cultivation! A Grandmaster level! Such a young Grandmaster! What a prodigy!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Pingzhi calmly replied:
"Do you intend to continue blocking our path?"
Upon hearing this, Diancang Yuyin burst into laughter and said:
"Hahaha! This is my duty, young friend. Even if I die here, I will not let you pass!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Pingzhi sighed, shook his head, and said:
"Sigh! Since that's the case, then don't blame me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Pingzhi appeared on the surface of the pool of water like a ghost.
Upon seeing this, Diancang Yuyin's expression changed, but the fishing rod in his hand seemed to be a long spear, and he thrust it directly at Lin Pingzhi.
Lin Pingzhi casually swung his sword, severing the fishing rod in two, and then appeared behind Diancang Yuyin.
Immediately afterwards, the black sword in his hand landed on Diancang Yuyin's back.
Then, a muffled thud was heard, and immediately afterward, the black sword struck Diancang Yuyin directly on the back.
Immediately afterwards, Diancang Yuyin slammed heavily onto the ground.
Immediately afterwards, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and was completely unable to fight.
At this moment, Lin Pingzhi spoke up:
"Don't worry, your injuries will be fine in a little while, and your body will only be numb for a short time."
"Just lie here for a bit and it'll be over!"
After saying that, Lin Pingzhi walked directly past Diancang Yuyin and continued walking inside.
..............................
Lin Pingzhi had only been gone a short while when he heard a loud singing voice coming from inside, accompanied by the sound of hammering wood.
Upon hearing this voice, Lin Pingzhi's heart stirred slightly, and he thought to himself:
"According to the information we have received, this Southern Emperor has four guards under his command."
Originally, they were four ministers of the Dali Kingdom.
The Diancang Yuyin I encountered before was the naval commander of the Dali Kingdom. His strength was quite good, at the early stage of the Innate Realm.
And this woodcutter seems to be the nameless woodcutter among the fishermen, woodcutters, farmers, and scholars; he is said to be the strongest fighter among them.
Because this nameless woodcutter was actually a general of the Dali Kingdom, whose strength was absolutely top-notch.
After all, to become a Grand General, one must be one of the strongest in terms of combat power.
I just wonder what level their cultivation has reached!
After saying that, Lin Pingzhi showed no fear or hesitation and walked directly towards the mountain path.
Not long after, a large tree was seen lying on the road, broken and lying across the middle of the road.
Beside the tree, a woodcutter was pruning and trimming it, as if he were cutting it down right there.
Seeing this, Lin Pingzhi smiled and said:
"Senior, are you trying to stop me?"
Upon hearing this, the nameless woodcutter raised his head and glanced at Lin Pingzhi.
Then he spoke:
"I just heard that guy Diancang Yuyin say that a young man has arrived, and he seems to be quite powerful."
"It seems this must be you. You wish to see His Majesty?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Pingzhi raised an eyebrow and said:
"Your Majesty, this is interesting. That fellow called himself your master before, but with you, he's become Your Majesty!"
The nameless woodcutter said, "I am different from that fellow Yu Yin. His Majesty is His Majesty. Even if he has abdicated, he is still His Majesty in my eyes."
Otherwise, I wouldn't have followed him out.
