Cross-push the other world: Awakening the martial arts descending system at the beginning

The middle-aged man raised his hand and stroked his goatee. A glint of confidence flashed in his eyes as he continued, "Your Majesty, I am making this statement to make Your Majesty understand that the current power of the imperial court is not enough to shake the foundations of those sects entrenched in the martial arts world, let alone these martial arts sects."

At this point, the middle-aged man suddenly changed the subject, his tone becoming sharp: "But this does not mean that the court has no chance. On the contrary, we still have a lot of room for maneuver, and I do have a plan to change these prerequisites."

Hearing this, the emperor's expression softened slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of anticipation. He stared at the middle-aged man and asked, "Uncle, please stop keeping me in suspense and tell me more."

"Your Majesty, although there are many sects in the martial arts world today, the three palaces, four cities, six gates and thirteen sects are the most respected. There are countless other small sects scattered throughout the martial arts world. However, in order to ensure their survival in the martial arts world, these small sects are constantly working hard to strengthen their own strength."

"So, in my opinion, we might as well turn our attention to these small sects first, and use a combination of kindness and power on them, rewarding them with what they need and intimidating them with what they fear. In this way, perhaps we can make them willingly serve the court."

The emperor nodded slightly, seemingly agreeing with the middle-aged man, but he still had doubts in his heart: "Uncle, although these small sects are numerous, their overall strength is ultimately incomparable to the three palaces, four cities, six gates and thirteen sects. How can they be a help to the court?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Although the rabbit is small, it can still kick the eagle in times of crisis. Moreover, there are many powerful forces among these small sects."

"Take the Guangyao Sect in Jinling City, for example. It was once one of the six major sects. It was only due to the powerful rise of the Fenghuang Sect under the leadership of Nangong Zhengyang that the Guangyao Sect was squeezed out of the six. However, its foundation remains, and its strength is still not inferior to that of the other six sects."

"Furthermore, the Guangyao Sect has always been obsessed with returning to the ranks of the Six Great Sects, and to this end has been secretly competing with the Phoenix Sect. The two factions have been plagued by constant grievances and disputes. This situation has given us an opportunity to exploit."

"Speaking of the Xuyou Sword Sect in Bashu, it was also one of the Thirteen Sects before. Although it is no longer among them, it has challenged the Five Illuminating Immortals several times in recent years. Although it has not won, judging by its behavior, its overall strength is comparable to that of the Five Illuminating Immortals. If the court wants to win it over and promise to let it return to the Thirteen Sects, the Xuyou Sword Sect will surely be grateful and serve the court."

"Besides them, the Xingyue Sword Sect in Ningyang City is also in the same situation. They can become a pawn of the imperial court. There are too many such sects in the martial arts world, and they all have the potential to become a helper to the imperial court."

Hearing this, the emperor's expression fluctuated slightly, and he secretly affirmed his uncle's plan in his heart, but relying on these alone to subvert the martial arts world was far from enough.

The subtle fluctuations in the emperor's expression did not escape the middle-aged man's sharp gaze. He naturally understood the emperor's thoughts. Just as he was about to speak again, Cao Zhengchun suddenly said, "Your Highness, what you said is indeed a brilliant plan. It uses the mutual restraint between the martial arts sects to reap the benefits. However, relying on these sects alone, I'm afraid they are not enough to shake the Three Palaces, Four Cities, Six Gates and Thirteen Sects."

The middle-aged man smiled faintly and continued, "Master Cao, please don't be anxious. This is naturally clear to me, but I haven't finished explaining this plan yet. Please listen carefully. I know very well that it is impossible to accomplish anything with only the forces we have now. But in addition to contacting these sects, we can also reach out to the Three Palaces, Four Cities, Six Gates, and Thirteen Sects."

"Oh? What do you mean?" The emperor's expression changed slightly, and he looked puzzled.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Your Majesty, although the Three Palaces, Four Cities, Six Gates, and Thirteen Factions are powerful and prestigious, they have so many disciples, like a tree with luxuriant branches and leaves, that it is inevitable that there will be a multitude of factions. In my opinion, we can send capable people to infiltrate them. First, we can find out the details of each faction and know their strengths and weaknesses. Second, we can seize the opportunity to steal the secret martial arts of each faction and use them for our own benefit. Third, we can spread rumors that are difficult to verify, instigating conflicts between the factions and causing them to fight each other and waste their energy. Fourth, we can secretly support and cultivate trusted forces, and when the time is right, we can cooperate with them from within."

After hearing this, the emperor was secretly shocked and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

His uncle, who seemed low-key and steady on weekdays, unexpectedly had such a meticulous and ingenious plan.

In this way, clearing out the underworld forces will no longer be an unattainable empty talk.

But just as the emperor was secretly delighted, Yu Huatian's words reached his ears at an inopportune moment: "According to the prince's plan, although it can break the deadlock in the unequal power between the court and the martial arts sects, it will take at least three to five years to be effective. But now that the plan to clear the martial arts has been leaked, if the martial arts sects are on guard, how can they give the court another few years?"

"Lord Rain, please be patient. How could the plan I have planned stop here?"

The middle-aged man smiled faintly and continued, "Although the plan to purge the martial arts world has been leaked, it will undoubtedly cause turmoil within the martial arts world. However, how could those veterans of the martial arts world, who have been in the martial arts world for decades, be easily incited by the one-sided words of just one person? After all, the Great Xia court and the martial arts sects have coexisted for hundreds of years. Although there have been undercurrents, this peace has never been broken. Even if someone believed this news, it would definitely not spread throughout the martial arts world in an instant."

"Of course, just in case, Your Majesty could draft a few imperial decrees and send them to the martial arts world, granting honorary titles and high positions to the leaders of those renowned and influential sects as a sign of winning them over. This move would clearly emphasize and deepen the balanced and symbiotic relationship between the imperial court and the martial arts world, letting the people of the martial arts world know that the imperial court also seeks shared prosperity, not sole supremacy. In this way, the leak of the Qingwu strategy would be refuted."

Hearing this, the emperor was deeply impressed by this strategy.

This strategy resolved the dilemma caused by the leak of Qingwu's plan in an instant, and also pointed out a clear direction for the court's next actions.

As long as we act according to this plan, the policy of clearing the military will yield significant results within three to five years.

The emperor's face lit up with joy as he said in a clear voice, "Uncle, this plan is ingenious and perfectly suited to my wishes. The subsequent plan to clear the martial arts world will be carried out accordingly."

"Your Majesty," the middle-aged man bowed slightly, his expression calm. His eyes flickered only slightly at the emperor's praise, then quickly returned to normal. He slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, I have something to add to this plan."

"Oh? Uncle Emperor, do you have anything else to add? Tell us in detail."

The emperor was slightly stunned when he heard this. This ingenious plan actually had an additional supplement. Then a hint of urgency flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly urged.
