The Path of the Sage

Chapter 529: Inkstone turtle

Views:

A white-haired old man also appeared behind Dong Yulu.

Compared with the previous old man, that old man had a bit more courage and majesty that rejected everything in the world, as if he was the number one person in the world and everything had to operate according to his will.

Dong Yulu pointed out: "The setting sun and flying sands are not in the six arts, nor are they in the teachings of Confucius. We should stop doing this! Depose him!"

Hearing this, everyone around, including Fang Yun, felt their scalps tingling. Although Dong Zhongshu could only put Confucianism first and other doctrines later, Dong Zhongshu had a supreme sacred doctrine of "great unification" in his heart.

Therefore, Dong Zhongshu's killing ability is not as good as that of the military strategists, but once he mobilizes the power of the holy way, his strength is enough to rank among the top three among all semi-saints.

The hundreds of schools of thought in Shengyuan Continent have always been loosely unified within Confucianism, but Dong Zhongshu wanted to highly unify everything under Confucianism, and even wanted to eliminate some families that were in conflict with the thoughts of Confucius. This holy way requires great courage, let alone execution. Even just thinking about it requires courage.

As the power of overthrowing all schools of thought emerged, a second huge wave of sand scattered.

Fang Yun ignored the sand waves and stared closely at the slowly disappearing shadow of Dong Zhongshu, trying to understand his spirit and strength, and also appreciating the essence of abolishing all schools of thought and achieving great unification.

The third huge sand wave appeared.

"I'll do it!" Jia De, a Jinshi from the Shengyuan Academy of the Jia Yi family, made an effort.

In the process of the sand waves impacting, a huge invisible shock wave also hit, constantly destroying everyone's protective battle poems, but it was never able to pose a threat to everyone's life.

Fortunately, the power of the sand waves was resolved by the three children of the noble families with the power of the stars. If the sand waves had fallen directly on the defensive battle poems, they would have been easily defeated.

The fourth huge sand wave appeared. It was much smaller than the previous ones, but it came very fast. Even if everyone wanted to climb up, it was impossible to avoid it. It was better to continue defending where they were.

"This wave is not worthy of me unleashing the power of the stars. Please work together to defeat it! Because next, we will face stronger opponents!" Ji Shouyu said.

Ji Shouyu was a member of King Wen's family and was proficient in the Book of Changes. The Kong family was known for their study of the Spring and Autumn Annals and was known for their ability to see into the past, while King Wen's family was known for their proficiency in the Book of Changes and for their ability to see into the future.

Everyone became more cautious and began to attack the weakened sand waves with all their strength. In the end, only a few sand waves fell on the defensive battle poems and poems. Although the opponent Yun and others posed a great threat, in the end no eight people were injured.

It’s just that a lot of people’s talents have been consumed.

After the fourth huge sand wave was defeated, no more sand waves posed a threat. Everyone immediately stepped on the dragon energy cloud and rose into the air, looking forward.

In the far distance, there was a huge hole with a diameter of several hundred miles, which was emitting smoke. The gravel near the hole had melted into glass and was slowly cooling down. The sand farther away was burning red.

Fang Yun looked back again. There used to be a mountain wall behind him with many passages on it, but now the whole mountain has collapsed and all the passages are blocked. It is unknown how long it will take to dig out a new passage.

The entire desert landscape was changed.

"It must be that bastard Gu Jiaohou's fault! There aren't many dragon bones here to begin with. Now that the little sun has fallen, I'm afraid all the dragon bones in the sand will be destroyed. Even if the remains of the Dragon Saint are extremely hard, they must be completely destroyed near the big hole."

"What does he want? Oh, do you remember? When the sun was about to hit the ground, it seemed to have changed."

"I remember it. The shell peeled off and the outline of a dragon's head emerged from inside. It was just very vague and I couldn't be completely sure."

"Fang Yun, what do you think?" Kong Detian asked.

Fang Yun shook his head. Looking carefully at the deserted land, it didn't look complicated. There was only desert, and it looked endless from a high place. However, there might be unknown dangers hidden under the sand.

Suddenly, a loud laugh that could be heard for thousands of miles came from the bottom of the huge pit.

"Hahaha, it's a rare inkstone turtle! And it's a dragon turtle inkstone. I will definitely be canonized as a saint!"

Afterwards, everyone saw a pitch-black dragon flying out of the pit with black smoke coming out of its body.

The ancient dragon marquis turned his head and looked over, and finally his gaze fell on Fang Yun. A hint of hatred flashed in his eyes, and finally turned into joy.

"Humans, you idiots! I discovered you when you were in the passage! Do you know why the sun set as soon as you came in? That's right, I wanted to kill you by the setting of the sun. Unfortunately, I didn't know enough about the power here, and I was a step too early. Otherwise, you would have been wiped out and died with my subordinates. However, you won't live long! Goodbye! Hahahaha..."

Gu Jiaohou flew upwards with wild laughter, getting closer and closer to the space crack that swallowed a sun. When he was close to the space crack, Gu Jiaohou turned around and looked at the human scholars.

"Fang Yun, didn't you dare to steal my dragon energy? This is retribution! All of you shall die. The Dragon Saint's corpse energy may not be the most poisonous thing in the world, but it is definitely the most troublesome poison. Enjoy it, because no race can solve this poison except the Dragon Saint. This place belongs to me, and you humans are just passers-by!"

Gu Jiaohou regained his usual arrogance, looked at Fang Yun and others with disdain, rushed into the space crack and disappeared, while the space crack was healing rapidly.

When everyone heard the words "Dragon Saint Corpse Qi", everyone changed color.

Afterwards, everyone saw a dark yellow smoke emerging from the big pit and quickly spreading in all directions. The speed was beyond everyone's imagination. The yellow fog was very close to the space-time rift. No matter how fast everyone went, it was impossible for them to reach the space-time rift before the yellow fog!

"How could there be the Dragon Saint's corpse qi here! That is the power formed after the Dragon Saint's body decayed. This is also the place where dragons are buried. It would be fine if there is no corpse qi, but if there is, it would be extraordinary."

"Look at the gravel on the ground. Even they will change when touched by the Dragon Saint's corpse qi."

"It's over. Our path has been completely blocked by Gu Jiao Hou! We can't escape."

"Is there no way?"

"The Dragon Saint's corpse qi is no different from other things. It can even corrupt the Dragon Saint's body, let alone us!"

"Detian, you have not used the will of Confucius. Do you have any solution?"

Kong Detian said helplessly: "There is no way. Your star position is not omnipotent."

"What should we do then?" All the scholars of the Holy Academy fell into deep thought, trying desperately to find an opportunity to overcome the difficulties.

The yellowish aura of the Dragon Saint's corpse flew in all directions, getting closer and closer to Fang Yun and the others.

"Attack, don't let the Dragon Saint's corpse get close!" Kong Detian had to give the order.

The war poems of the crowd rushed over like an overwhelming force, but when they encountered the yellow fog, they were like a drop in the ocean and did not pose any obstacle.

"It's over!"

The scholars had no choice but to retreat. After a while, seven of them realized that only Fang Yun remained there. (To be continued...)
