Yan Yukong smiled. If the discussion platform could be successfully formed, Fang Yun's power would skyrocket.
Fang Yun became a virtual saint, and the Fang family became a wealthy and powerful family. This was only the foundation, but this foundation was not solid.
Fang Yun's becoming the Lord of Blood Mang made a qualitative leap in Fang Yun's strength and power, to the point that Fang Yun could already influence the decisions of the Holy Academy. In matters concerning the Blood Mang Ancient Land, Fang Yun's influence was already on par with that of the Semi-Saint families.
Fang Yun’s low academic rank is his only and biggest shortcoming, but it can be made up for with enough time.
The Longmen Forum will be the beginning of Fang Yun's entry into the upper literary circle of the human race, which is of great significance.
"Let's jump over the Dragon Gate again, everyone, please."
"Please come in, Saint Fang Xu!" Everyone made way, and Fang Yun took the lead and stepped forward.
Yan Yukong was a Jinshi and was walking at the back. He felt comfortable looking at Fang Yun's back.
The essence of the Longmen Literary Gathering is to showcase everyone's "learning and thinking". No matter how talented Yan Yukong is, he is only a Jinshi after all. This time, with the guidance of Fang Yun and observing the other university scholars, the road ahead suddenly becomes clear and the path to the holy way becomes smoother.
However, what made Yan Yukong happiest was not what he gained from the Longmen Literary Meeting, but that he was happy for Fang Yun.
Leaping over the Dragon Gate mainly relies on one's own body and ability. Fang Yun can jump 50 feet, which is already the limit. As Fang Yun himself said, it is like being at the neck of a bottle, which is difficult to penetrate. However, Fang Yun took advantage of the Dragon Gate Literary Meeting to gather ideas and learn from everyone present. He must have broken through the bottleneck and improved his leap over the Dragon Gate again.
If you want to surpass your predecessors and peers, you must first learn from them.
In Leap Over the Dragon Gate, the human race's bodies are far inferior to those of the dragon race, and even the brains of individual humans cannot make up for the gap between the two races, but the wisdom of the human race as a group may be able to do it!
The fourteen people under the Dragon Gate attracted the attention of all the monsters and aquatic creatures.
Fang Yun looked around at all the tribes, and finally his eyes fell on the five golden carps.
The stronger monsters and water creatures had thick skin and flesh, and even if they were injured from jumping and falling into the water, their blood would heal them, but the five carps were very weak. Most of their scales had fallen off, and their bodies were covered with tiny wounds, which continued to bleed.
Fang Yun looked away from the five carps and bowed to the tribes. "Thank you all."
After Fang Yun finished speaking, he lowered his body slightly, and a circular airflow appeared around him. The water surface shook slightly, and then the water surface exploded. Fang Yun flew straight up, and the river water below exploded into a tall white water column.
Fang Yun was like a nimble dragon crossing the first dragon gate.
While falling, Fang Yun felt a strange heat surrounding him. At first it was just like soaking in a hot spring, but as he continued to fall, his body heated up and soon he felt as if he was in a furnace, with a burning pain all over his body.
Fang Yun gritted his teeth and said nothing, then felt a stream of heat flowing through his body. He looked to improve his body, strengthen every part, and at the same time, a part of the heat flowed directly into the Wen Palace.
A small amount of heat flow was absorbed by the Wen Palace Panlong above the Wen Palace, another part flowed into the Wen Palace and was absorbed by the True Dragon Ancient Sword, causing the dragon patterns to gradually increase, and another part was absorbed by the Dragon Saint Star.
Fang Yun fell into the water, closed his eyes, and felt the changes in his body.
The Dragon Gate was originally created for the Water Tribe, so the Water Tribe and the Dragon Tribe benefited the most, while the other tribes benefited less than one tenth.
The human race is not good at physical strength, so increasing pure physical strength is of little use, but the Dragon Gate can enhance the human race's brain, which is equivalent to indirectly helping the human race to advance to a higher position. At the same time, the Dragon Gate can also increase lifespan!
The first dragon gate will increase your lifespan by at least one year, and the further you go, the more lifespan you will gain.
Fang Yun opened his eyes and saw a thick fog ahead. He saw tens of thousands of demons and barbarians in front of the second dragon gate. Some were resting, some were jumping desperately, splashing water, the rumbling sound of falling into the water was endless, and there were constant shouts and even curses.
Some monsters and aquatic creatures looked pale, which was a sign of excessive consumption of energy and blood.
Lei Chongmo, the head of the Lei family, was not among them. It seemed that he had already crossed the second dragon gate.
Fang Yun walked forward on the water, glancing at all the monsters and barbarians, learning and summarizing again.
Arriving three miles away from the second dragon gate, Fang Yun fell into the water and swam forward.
Many monsters and aquatic creatures saw Fang Yun, most of them just took a look at him, many of them showed hatred, and then continued to practice Leaping over the Dragon Gate.
Only some aquatic creatures from the East China Sea swam over, took the initiative to greet Fang Yun, chatted with Fang Yun for a few words, and then left one after another.
Fang Yun quietly observed all the monsters and aquatic creatures. After a quarter of an hour, he swam to the vicinity of Longmen and looked up at the sky.
A wolf demon king two meters away showed his white teeth, made a whining sound in his throat, stretched out his claws and pointed in the direction of the first dragon gate, threatening: "Human race, get out of the way! Don't think that just because the person in front can cross the second dragon gate, you can too! I know you are some kind of virtual saint, but you, a race that is not even as good as sheep, are not worthy of jumping over the dragon gate here!"
The fish demon king at the side laughed and said, "Old Wolf, he is our water tribe's Wenxing Longjue after all, you should be more polite. I saw them betting before, and I thought this Wenxing Longjue would be so powerful. Who knew he would only come now, and it's been several hours? It really disappoints me. They bet, let's bet too, bet on how badly he falls, and bet on how many hours it will take him to cross the second dragon gate."
The wolf demon king immediately grinned and said, "I bet ten hours!"
A water creature laughed and said, "You look down on our Wenxing Longjue too much. I bet nine hours!"
"I bet"
Without waiting for the next demon king to finish his words, Fang Yun suddenly jumped out of the water, jumped high, and in the gazes of many demons and aquatic creatures, he seemed to be walking in the air and stepped over the second dragon gate in one step.
"I bet twelve hours that I..." The demon king swallowed the rest of the words.
"Is this the first time he has jumped in front of this door?"
"Is he a human?"
It became quiet in front of the second dragon gate. Many of the barbaric water creatures looked dejected, not expecting that they were not even as good as a young man. Only those water creatures who had taken the initiative to meet Fang Yun before smiled.
The process of falling from the second door was very similar to the previous one. Fang Yun felt hot all over and his body was strengthened again. The Wen Palace Panlong, the True Dragon Ancient Sword and the Dragon Saint Star were strengthened again.
The second dragon gate extends life by two years.
Ahead is the third dragon gate, which is forty feet high.
Over 40,000 barbaric water creatures stopped in front of the third dragon gate.
Among the 100,000 wild aquatic creatures that jumped over the Dragon Gate, almost all the largest ones were blocked here.
Many races including squids, whales, ancient monsters, elephants, turtles and bears were roaring, clamoring, jumping, and many were resting quietly.
Compared with the previous two gates, the various races here jump more frequently. They almost jump as soon as they fall into the water, and many of them use double or even triple jumps, which puts a huge burden on the body.
Some of the barbaric water creatures began to develop tiny wounds on their bodies. Their bodies healed too slowly, while new wounds appeared too quickly.
The river water in front of the third dragon gate is light red.
Fang Yun saw Lei Chongmo’s figure.
Lei Zhongmo was resting with his eyes closed on Pingbu Qingyun, three miles away from Longmen, with a faint stain of blood on his clothes.
