The Path of the Sage

Chapter 506: The Light of the Holy Temple

When you climb up Longtai, you will see islands and land like clouds.

Fang Yun and Kong Detian flew side by side. In less than half a minute, dragon monsters or demon beasts came to the vicinity one after another.

In addition to the previous Ancient Crocodile Marquis, the Dragon Demon Clan also has the Ancient Wolf Marquis and the Ancient Bear Marquis.

Marquis Gu Xiong and Marquis Gu Crocodile came alone, just like Marquis Gu Crocodile, while Marquis Gu Lang led a total of seven ancient wolf generals. These eight ancient wolves could not run as fast as Marquis Gu Crocodile, but when running from one floating cloud land to another, they would work together and overcome some obstacles or distances that Marquis Gu Crocodile could not overcome alone.

This Ancient Wolf Marquis also has three dragon patterns on his forehead, and his strength is comparable to that of the Ancient Crocodile Marquis and the Ancient Bear Marquis.

In addition to the original Eagle Saint, there are also the Ape Saint, the Rat Saint and the huge Elephant Saint.

Fang Yun didn't know much about the specific characters of the demon clan. He only recognized the famous elephant clan saint Xiang Po. However, Kong Detian was in the Holy Academy and knew all the demon clan saints who were slightly famous.

"The Eagle Tempter is not well-known, but he actually has the highest status among the four saints. He often goes in and out of the Wanwang Mountain, which is the most powerful training ground for the demon race and is far more dangerous than the Liangjie Mountain and other ordinary ancient places. The internal fighting of the demon race is far more brutal than that of the human race. Every year, there are ten bloody battles among the demons to compete for the ranking."

"Where did Eagle Confusion rank last year?"

"Yinghuo simply disdains to participate in the bloody battle between demon commanders. Not long ago, he used three moves to cripple Lang Jue, who ranked eighth among this year's top ten demon commanders, and he is sure that he is as good as the number one demon commander Jiao Qu."

Fang Yun nodded. No wonder Yinghuo was so cautious. It turned out that he was a famous powerful demon commander.

"Yugang's strength is not obvious. He only ranked 27th in the Monster Marshal Bloody Battle, but he is the smartest. It is said that he has memorized all the books of the human race. If he participates in the imperial examination, he can at least become a Jinshi!"

Fang Yun looked at Yuan Gang, who was an ape that looked very much like a gorilla. He was tall, with thick ape hair, and very obvious human features. His eyes were bright, and there was no trace of the bloodthirsty light in them that other monsters had.

"As for that Shu Yue, he is the most cunning. I fought him in Liangjie Mountain. You should have heard about my strength, but I have no way to deal with him. The rat clan is like this. Their ability to kill the enemy may be average. But their ability to save their lives cannot even be compared with that of the gecko clan."

"There's no need to say much about Xiang Po. He's a natural prodigy with two ancestral spirits. He can use his trunk, tusks, roar and legs to launch four attacks at the same time. He's been at the top of the Monster Battle for three consecutive years. This year, he said he got tired of it and won't participate in the Monster Battle anymore. Most elephants are relatively gentle, but Xiang Po has an ancestral spirit that inherited the power of the ancient monster mammoth. He's usually not much different from other elephants. Once he starts fighting, he'll go crazy."

Fang Yun nodded. Even he knew about Xiang Po's deeds. In the three-valley battle last year, Xiang Po not only defeated three human Jinshi in a row by himself, but also tied with a genius Hanlin of the human race, which shocked the human race.

The four demon saints were standing close to each other, flying on the dragon energy cloud and communicating in low voices.

The Ancient Crocodile Marquis and the Ancient Bear Marquis were getting closer and closer, and they were about to join forces, while the Ancient Wolf Marquis only led his own wolf pack to pursue.

The demon clan didn't know about the true dragon remains, but these three ancient demons suspected that the true dragon remains were related to Fang Yun. They chased after him relentlessly.

Fang Yun and Kong Detian were unable to escape for a while, and Yaoman and Longyao could not catch up either, and the three parties fell into a brief balance.

After passing a vertical floating cloud land, I saw an ordinary floating cloud land in front of me. A scholar in white was sitting on the dragon cloud. He slowly took out one battle painting after another from the lake shell and used them.

In front of him, the four-headed dragon demon general was besieged by thousands of demon generals and demon commanders. These demon generals and demon commanders all had translucent bodies and were summoned by the battle painting. Their strength was slightly weaker than the real demon generals and demon commanders, but their numbers made up for the difference in strength. The four-headed dragon demon general was already exhausted.

When Fang Yun and Kong Detian flew above the floating cloud land where Yun Nong Zhang was, the four dragon demon generals were finally killed completely by a large number of war painting monsters.

These four dragon demon generals all have dragon patterns on their foreheads. When one of them dies, the dragon pattern on its forehead will leave the body and turn into golden light and enter Yun Nong Zhang's forehead.

The rules of the Dragon Platform were established by the ancient dragon clan. The dragon clan treats dragon monsters as food for young dragons. Every time a young dragon kills a dragon monster with dragon patterns, it can obtain the dragon energy from the other dragon.

Yun Nongzhang turned his head and looked over, first at Fang Yun and Kong Detian, then at the four demon saints and the three ancient demon marquises, sighed, and said to himself: "My poor war painting is going to be wasted again."

After saying that, Yun Nong Zhang controlled the dragon energy cloud to meet Fang Yun and Kong Detian. When the two were a hundred feet apart, he suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Fang Yun in surprise.

"Monster! What a monster!" Yun Nongzhang said while shaking his head.

When the three men approached, Yun Nongzhang smiled and said, "Brother Detian, do you want to kill or flee?"

"Run first, and fight hard if you can't get rid of him!" Kong Detian said, "You may have noticed that Fang Yun has become a Saintly Advanced Scholar, and is in the process of preparing a sword!"

Yun Nongzhang's eyes sparkled, and he said, "After you conceive the sword, Brother Fang, can you let me see your sword-conceiving poem?"

Fang Yun smiled and nodded. The Sword Pregnant Poem was only effective once, so it didn't matter if it was spread out. Many Jinshi scholars often compared the Sword Pregnant Poems, and many scholars were studying how to write a more powerful Sword Pregnant Poem.

"Okay!" Yun Nongzhang took out a somewhat old battle painting from the Hanhu Shell and handed it to Fang Yun, "This is a battle painting of a Juren, but it is a battle painting of the third realm. It consumes little talent but is extremely effective. It is most suitable for you now."

Fang Yun was stunned. People who have reached the third realm of painting are qualified to become historical celebrities, and there have been only three masters of the third realm in history. The value of the paintings of these three people is even higher than that of ordinary masters of the third realm of painting.

Fang Yun did not take it immediately. He first bowed and expressed his sincere gratitude before taking the old war painting with both hands.

Kong Detian first turned his head to look at the monsters and dragon monsters behind him. After making sure there was no danger, he looked curiously at the war painting in Fang Yun's hand.

The war painting is slightly yellow and nothing special.

Fang Yun slowly opened the scroll. At first, there was no change, but the moment the scroll was fully unfolded, a huge change occurred.

This painting of "One Hundred Crows" was originally just painted on a flat surface, but when the scroll was opened, the mountains and crows inside actually formed three-dimensional objects standing on the scroll!

What appeared on the paper was simply a shrunken isolated peak and a group of shrunken crows.

Fang Yun reached out and touched the solitary peak. Yes, it felt exactly like rock, not ink.

A total of one hundred demon crows were scattered all over the isolated peak like living creatures, patrolling, laying eggs, courting, or fighting. In Fang Yun's eyes, they were not paintings at all, but a miniature world.

"The three realms of painting are vividly displayed on paper. They really live up to their reputation!" Fang Yun thought to himself.

Kong Detian had seen more paintings of the Three Realms than Fang Yun. His eyes swept across the signature, and then focused on the one hundred demon crows. He said, "It turned out to be the work of Master Moxu. Although he gave up the imperial examination in anger after failing many times in his early years and never took the imperial examination again, he made rapid progress in painting because of this. In this painting of one hundred crows, there is a Crow Demon Marquis, twelve Crow Demon Commanders, and the rest are Crow Demon Generals. They are enough to resist the Dragon Demon Marquis for a long time, but they don't consume much talent when they are used. It is really a life-saving treasure!"

Fang Yun closed the scroll, lowered the shield in front of his chest and wrote quickly: "Thank you, Brother Nong Zhang, for the gift. This item can be used even by candidates who have passed the imperial examination. It is so valuable that it is even higher than ordinary Hanlin Wenbao! I cannot accept it."

Yun Nong Zhang smiled and said, "If I don't keep the painting, then you can get it. If I keep the painting, then the painting won't be kept. This is what my mentor taught me. So even though I have countless battle paintings, I will use them at the right time. What's more, my mentor has long predicted that 'you can get the painting'. If I don't give you this painting, I will definitely not get the battle painting in the future."

Fang Yun and Kong Detian smiled slightly. The original meaning of "I can only get paintings if I don't keep them" is that one can get new paintings if he doesn't covet paintings. However, Yun Nongzhang changed the meaning of "Fang" to Fang Yun, and the meaning became that the paintings he cannot keep must be given to Fang Yun.

Fang Yun shook his head and handed the painting to Yun Nong Zhang. If the two had a close relationship, he could accept it without any worries. However, they had only met twice, and the painting was too valuable. No scholar would accept it.

Yun Nong Zhang did not take it, but said sternly: "Brother Fang, you have misunderstood. I am not giving this painting to you, but to the future Fang Yun who can protect the safety of our race! If this painting can keep you safe for a moment, then Master Mo's efforts will not be in vain! If you encounter danger in the future, this painting can save your life, but I don't give it to you, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."

Fang Yun wanted to refuse, but Kong Detian said coldly: "Your safety is no longer your own business. If you die, how will your family and relatives face it? What will happen to Jing Country where you are? What about the expectations of hundreds of millions of human beings!"

Fang Yun was stunned and was unable to refute Kong Detian's words. He was right. Even though he always regarded himself as a scholar equal to others and would not be arrogant because of his high status, he was different after all.

Fang Yun remembered what Li Wenying said when they went to Kongcheng together.

"You have the power to change Jingguo!"

Fang Yun looked at the sincere eyes of Kong Detian and Yun Nong Zhang, nodded heavily, put away the "Picture of a Hundred Crows" and put it into the Yinjiang Shell.

Yun Nongzhang and Kong Detian smiled happily.

Although Fang Yun had never been to the Holy Temple, he suddenly yearned for that place very much.

There may be blood and gore there like in Jingguo, but there will definitely be sunshine as well.

"If there is a ray of light between heaven and earth, I can continue to move forward!"

Fang Yun silently remembered the oath he made at this moment in his heart.

Fang Yun picked up the pen, took a deep breath, and wrote carefully on the paper.

The light of the Holy Court.

When he wrote the word "圣", everything was normal, but when he wrote the word "院", the half-peak brush in Fang Yun's hand made a soft sound and the light of the ink was also changing.

When writing the character "之", a faint glow appears above the character.

The moment I finished writing the word "光", white flowers bloomed around it. (To be continued...)
