The Beginning of Confucianism and Taoism

The Liang Dynasty respected martial arts. Warriors cut mountains and rivers, demon cultivators devoured the sun and moon, and demon cultivators wreaked havoc on the common people. And scholars are just waste for generals to polish their ink. Lin Yanshu was born with blocked meridians and atrophic pubic region, and was abandoned by his family like a pair of worn shoes. In this world where the strong prey on the weak, his only way out is to become a ninth-grade official and live a life of poverty. Until late one night, a voice sounded in his mind—— "Did you know that there is a fourth way in this world?" That night, Lin Yanshu wrote the first word: benevolence. The rice paper glowed with golden light, and the Dantian, which had been dormant for sixteen years, became warm for the first time. No meridians? Literary education does not cultivate the physical body, but cultivates awe-inspiring righteousness. No bloodline? Literary education does not rely on inheritance, but on reading and understanding. No soul power? Every word and every word of literature and art is the law of heaven and earth. There is no Confucius, no Mencius, no Four Books and Five Classics in this world. Then he will be the number one saint in all eternity—— Use the pen as a blade, the book as a shield, and use reason to conquer the world. ——Let's see how Lin Yanshu subverted the entire martial arts world with the power of a scholar.
