The Path of the Sage

Chapter 543: The sharpness of the tongue

"This..." Sun Renbing hesitated. From the perspective of military strategy, Fang Yun did a good job, because Xiong Jun, Shi Wang and Gu Jiao Hou would definitely work together to escape.

Moreover, Gu Jiaohou had already revealed an ability, which was to use insects to track and spy on people. If Fang Yun acted alone, the three would definitely know about it. Given the extent to which the three hated Fang Yun, they would get rid of him as soon as possible even if they knew he was a bait.

The other scholars and the dragon clan gradually understood Fang Yun’s intention. It was said to be a strategy, but in fact it was a challenge.

Fang Yun wants to challenge the combined forces of Xiong Jun, Shi Wang and Gu Jiao Hou alone!

"Fang Yun, you won't give up on yourself, right?" Yun Nong Zhang asked.

Fang Yun smiled slightly and said, "We just killed small fry, and it was not satisfying. Don't worry, I have studied the art of war, and I have a dragon energy cloud that is much faster than anyone else. Even if I am defeated, I can still escape. What's more, I want to see how powerful the Lord Star position transformed by the Star King is!"

Fang Yun's words were powerful and firm.

Kong Detian whispered, "The Kong family has studied that your Lord Star is equivalent to the will of the demon ancestor. If the human race uses it, it will definitely be demonized. As for whether it is you who is demonized or what, it is unknown. You must be careful."

"I know my limits." Fang Yun said.

Zhang Zhixing suddenly said: "At this moment, Fang Yun is a scholar of sharp tongue."

All the scholars suddenly realized why Fang Yun was so radical.

Once the verbal sparring is over, the temperament of all the scholars will change noticeably.

The period when scholars are most capable of displaying their talents is the time when they are good at speaking.

If the edge is not revealed, the talent of the ancient sword cannot grow quickly, and there is no edge to restrain when striving for the position of Hanlin.

The reason why many Jinshi scholars were unable to be promoted to Hanlin was often that their edge was frustrated when they just started to debate, or their edge was not sharp enough!

And everyone who achieves great success in the future is extremely terrifying when it comes to speaking with a sword.

Even the most indifferent and leisurely Southern Saint was notorious when he was a sharp-tongued scholar.

Being a Jinshi is a threshold. If you can be sharp and come back, you can become a Hanlin. If you can't be sharp or come back, you will stay at the level of Jinshi for your whole life.

Ao Huang tore off a piece of dragon scale from his body with a painful look on his face, and said, "I can't persuade you either, but with your ability, it's wishful thinking for them to kill you! Go ahead, once they besiege you, send your energy into the dragon scale, and I will sense it immediately and do my best to rescue you!"

"Thank you!" Fang Yun was not hypocritical. He took Ao Huang's scale.

Then, Fang Yun looked at Ji Shouyu and said, "Brother Shouyu, please show me a clear way."

Ji Shouyu glanced at the dragon energy cloud under Fang Yun's feet, which was far superior to everyone else's. He showed a little shame and said, "When the Ten Nations Competition was held that day, I heard that you were going to enter the Dragon Stage. I even wanted to compete with you and said in the Holy Academy that I would defeat you. But I didn't expect that the gap between you and me would be so huge. I am convinced."

Ji Shouyu saw two diagrams of the Eight Diagrams appearing in his eyes, and then he pointed to the southeast and said, "Brother Fang, you can go in that direction."

"Thank you!" Fang Yun said nothing and controlled the dragon energy cloud to fly rapidly.

The people behind Fang Yun calculated and found that the speed of his dragon energy cloud was twice as fast as theirs!

"With such a strong dragon energy cloud, Fang Yun will have no problem keeping himself alive." Yun Nong Zhang said.

“But don’t forget that, except for the Evil Lord, Shi Wang and Gu Jiao Hou can fly without the Dragon Qi Cloud, and their speed of flying at full speed far exceeds Fang Yun.”

"Ah. As expected of Fang Zhenguo, he is so heroic that he dares to take the initiative to fight even against the top geniuses of the three tribes."

"what should we do?"

"I'm not as bold as Fang Yun. I think the nine of us should form a group, Ao Huang in one group, and the rest of the dragon clan in another group. Otherwise, we will die without knowing how we died." Kong Detian said.

"That's good."

Fang Yun stepped on the dragon energy cloud and flew between the blue sky and the white sea of clouds. He was dressed in black, with a cold look in his eyes, and exuded a sharpness that he had never had before.

Fang Yun looked around like an eagle, his gaze like a transparent knife cutting ahead.

Thousands of miles ahead is a densely packed floating cloud land, like islands suspended in the sky.

The front is a good place for an ambush. Before, Fang Yun asked Ji Shouyu to use the power of the "Book of Changes" for divination. It was not to calculate the positions of the three evil kings, but to find the least dangerous direction in a dangerous place.

Ji Shouyu is not able to predict the future, but through the power of the Book of Changes, he connects all factors such as weather, terrain, water patterns, time, humidity, temperature, and the race, strength, habits, and personality of both sides to make inferences and select the most likely result.

"Yi" originally means change. Based on all the changes at the moment, we can naturally infer some changes in the future.

Although the new dragon energy cloud was very fast, it still took a long time to fly a thousand miles. Fang Yun sat down, closed his eyes, and recited the scriptures of the saints.

The verbal sparring was complete and no longer consumed his talent and literary energy. With the help of the classics of the saints, Fang Yun's talent grew at an unstoppable rate.

After arriving near the floating cloud land area, Fang Yun opened his eyes, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and looked forward with his head raised.

"Tsk..."

A slight sound of cloth tearing was heard, as if an invisible sharp blade had passed by, and an inch-long cut appeared on the sleeve of Fang Yun's right hand.

If other people saw this at this moment, they would surely scream in surprise. This was a typical case of "sharp tongues". Such an abnormality would only occur when the power of the verbal sparring was close to the limit that a Jinshi scholar could withstand.

At this stage, the scholar must be careful and not get close to anyone, otherwise the people around him will inevitably be hurt by his sharp tongue.

Fang Yun was surprised but remained calm. He took out a piece of dragon horn from the Yinjiangbei, placed it on the dragon energy cloud, then opened his mouth and white light flashed.

The True Dragon Ancient Sword flew out and immediately broke through the sound barrier, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

The white sword with golden patterns may not seem surprising at first glance, but the murderous intent emanating from the sword is like waves, and the murderous thoughts are like tides, one after another, never stopping.

Fang Yun did not conceal the sharpness of his tongue sword at all, allowing the tongue sword to stimulate the power of the true dragon's remains.

Although the dragon is kind to humans, it is also an ancient vicious creature that is far more ferocious than any monster or demon. Once it uses its full strength, it will be the source of disaster.

Under the True Dragon Ancient Sword, there is also a black ink sword that is only half as long, following it like a shadow.

The True Dragon Ancient Sword flew to the dragon horn of the Jiao King and rubbed it gently.

Making swords out of dragon bones and sharpening them with dragon horns is a good way to enhance your verbal skills.

The sound of sharpening the sword was heard, and all the essence of the power in the dragon horn was absorbed by the True Dragon Ancient Sword, and traces of powder scattered along the blade.

These powders were originally useless, but Mo Jian did not despise them and absorbed them a second time, eventually forming finer powders that dissipated with the wind.

The evil king appeared silently on the floating cloud land in front of him, and said with thunderous tongue: "Fang Yun, you are so arrogant that you actually want to use the three of us to hone you!"

"You misunderstood." Fang Yun seemed to be explaining.

Without waiting for the evil king to doubt, Fang Yun continued: "The one who can sharpen me is the sky above and the earth below. Apart from the sky and the earth, there is nothing else that can be used as a stone for my sharpening. You are nothing but the powder left over from sharpening the sword." (To be continued...)
