Among the holy treasures that the human race can summon, there are many recognized powerful forces. Once these holy powers become true, they are unparalleled in power, such as the Nine Cauldrons of Great Xia, the Tiger Talisman of Ten Thousand Victory, and the long river of history.
Honoring the ancestors' monument has great symbolic significance, but so far it has not demonstrated any powerful force. Even now, there is only coercion, but no killing. Any great scholar can feel the generosity of the power of honoring the ancestors' monument.
Even though the scholars present had received news that those who honored the ancestral monument would be punished by death, they did not take it seriously, because compared with the legendary Tiger Tally of Victory or the Military Soul Horn, those who honored the ancestral monument were simply merciful.
It was precisely because they realized the compassion of honoring the ancestral monument that the great scholars of Jing State looked unhappy.
If Zongsheng defends but does not attack, even if the saintly families dislike him, they may not stop him, because the saintly families know that Zongsheng is very determined to protect Liushan, because Liushan determines the survival of Jingguo, and the survival of Jingguo determines Zongsheng's holy path.
At least so far, no noble family would start a dispute with the Zongsheng for the sake of the Zongsheng's protection of Liushan. Not even Chen Guanhai can do that. If Chen Guanhai were to start a dispute with the Zongsheng now, he would soon die, which would be tantamount to handing over the Jing Kingdom to the hands of the people.
The monument to honor ancestors hangs high in the sky, giving people the feeling that it is only a few hundred feet high, but every time you look closely, you will feel that it covers the entire sky and the earth, and the light of the sun and the star Wenquxing are all blocked by its light.
The dark clouds dissipated, and the light of the ancestral monument spread across the Shengyuan Continent.
This time, the death toll suddenly increased, and many of the deaths seemed to have nothing to do with filial piety.
The magistrate of Beiyue County in Wu State died suddenly in the county government office. The news spread throughout Wu State in an instant, shocking King Wu. King Wu immediately took the jade seal in hand, launched the emperor's celestial patrol, and with his eyes raised in the air, he investigated Beiyue County from top to bottom.
After only ten breaths, Wu Jun discovered the clue.
It turned out that the magistrate of Beiyue County banned the burning of paper money for memorial services in the city, banned all forms of burning memorial services, and banned the sale and production of paper money and other funeral supplies. Beiyue was far away from the emperor, and although it caused a small controversy, the magistrate of Beiyue County had connections in the court, so the matter was suppressed. When the barbarians invaded from the south and the demon world stationed troops in the two mountains, such a small matter could not cause a dispute in the court.
However, the reason why the filial piety monument led to the execution of the Beiyue County magistrate left Wu Jun puzzled and he had to write a letter to the literary giant Yi Zhishi for advice.
Just a moment later, Yi Zhishi sent a letter back and guessed the reason.
Wu Jun immediately checked based on Yi Zhishi's guess and soon found out that one of the aides of the Beiyue County Magistrate was actually bribed by the rebels and made the aide come up with a vicious plan to ban the burning of paper to worship ancestors.
Wu Jun quickly found out the whole story and found that it was exactly the same as what the literary giant Yi Zhishi had guessed. It turned out that not only the human race had been fighting against the monsters in recent years, but the rebellious species in the monster world were also trying every means to attack the human race.
This move of prohibiting the burning of paper to worship ancestors seems to be for the purpose of preventing fires, but in fact, it is a scheme devised by the rebels to wipe out the entire family.
The human race has pure beliefs and is always connected with its ancestors. Burning paper to worship ancestors is a kind of psychological comfort, forming a real connection with deceased parents and ancestors, allowing everyone to remember their ancestors and ensuring the continuous inheritance of the human race.
The rebels tried every means to attack the faith of the human race, and reducing the forms of ancestor worship was one of their methods.
Preventing the burning of paper to commemorate ancestors may seem to have the benefit of preventing fires, but it directly reduces a way for humans to commemorate their deceased family members and ancestors. Reducing one way is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that this ban will cause some people to change from thinking that burning paper is wrong to thinking that ancestor worship is wrong. What is being denied is not the burning of paper, but the ancestor worship!
Once ancestor worship is completely denied, the human race’s heritage, beliefs, faith, and other spiritual heritage over the years will be cracked and eventually collapse.
The ultimate goal of the anti-race is not only to weaken the human race, but to kill all of it.
Books from all human countries never advocate killing all humans, nor do they advocate that fellow humans are inferior. Only books from the demon world advocate the extermination of humans and claim that humans are slaves and can be killed at will.
When Wu Jun found out the whole story, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. This was clearly a case of the ancestral monument using these officials to warn the human race.
Wu Jun didn't even pay attention to the dispute between Fang Yun and Liu Shan. He hurriedly reported it to the Holy Academy, and then summoned the officials of the Wu State to formulate countermeasures to prevent the rebels from using other methods to destroy the foundation of human inheritance.
Under the holy light of the ancestral monument, more than one hundred officials died, the highest-ranking one being Hanlin.
In the court of Jing State, no one cared about how many people were killed or injured under the ancestral monument. Everyone's mind was suspended in the air, looking towards Qing State and the direction of the Zong family.
Fang Yun put away the four treasures of the study.
Although the poem page of "Three Gifts to the Wandering Son of Liushan" weighs a hundred pounds, it is suspended in the air.
Fang Yun looked at Liu Shan calmly, while Liu Shan looked into Fang Yun's eyes with a smile on his face.
Fang Yun bent his fingers, ready to push the hundred-jin-heavy page of poetry toward Liushan.
There was no fear in Liu Shan's eyes.
Suddenly, a holy light shot up into the sky.
A smile broke out on Liu Shan's face, the Left Prime Minister's party members were surprised and happy, while the other scholars looked gloomy, but the next moment, the two sides reversed.
Liu Shan and Zuo Xiang's party members had stiff faces and disappeared, while the other scholars were surprised and happy.
The holy light rises into the sky, as bright as the sun, illuminating the whole world.
However, it did not originate from Qing State, but from Kongcheng and Confucius Temple!
Liu Shan was stunned and horrified. Even when he saw the incarnation of Wolf Slaughter coming, he was not so horrified.
At this time, before the Saint took action, the Kong family suddenly released holy power, and it did not come from the Kong family villa representing the head of the Kong family, but from the Confucius Temple representing the entire Kong family and even Confucius!
This is more shocking than the combined attack of the three sub-sage families: Zengzi's family, Zisi's family, and Mencius' family.
The holy light shot up into the sky, majestic and magnificent, instantly piercing through the sky and going straight into the depths of the sky, which was no less brilliant than the light of the ancestral stele.
Everyone was full of doubts and did not understand why the Kong family took action at this time, because once the Kong family's holy light appeared, if the patriarch took action accordingly, it would mean that they were competing with the Kong family. In the past, there were a few semi-saints who also fought against the Kong family when they were alive, but once they died, their families declined very quickly.
So, why did the Kong family release their holy power at this time? What kind of big thing happened
A magnificent and powerful voice came from the Confucius Temple and instantly spread throughout the Shengyuan Continent.
"Friend Fang, the Double Ninth Festival is approaching. Would you like to have a drink with me?"
All the people in the human race were stunned.
From the elderly to the young, all stared at the holy energy in the direction of Kongcheng with wide eyes.
The head of the Kong family sent a message to the world just to invite Fang Yun to dinner and drinks
Is a drink worthy of a personal invitation from a semi-saint
In the court of Jing State, everyone looked at Fang Yun with confused eyes. They all seemed to be sleepy, including the wise scholars.
When did Fang Yun receive the real treatment of a semi-saint
The patriarch of the Kong family is a semi-saint. It is a huge honor for a semi-saint to speak from a distance.
Fang Yun bowed in the direction of the Kong family and said, "I will definitely keep the appointment on Double Ninth Festival!"
"good!"
The voice of the head of the Kong family spread throughout the world again.
