Chapter 210 Chaos in Zhongzhou! Missing Li Qingchen!

Cangyan Continent, Zhongzhou.

As the center of the mainland, Zhongzhou has a unique geographical location.

He was wrapped up in the other four realms and never faced the threat of the demon clan's troops.

This place is a holy place in the hearts of scholars all over the world, and there are very few robbers, thieves, and evil cultivators.

Logically speaking, Zhongzhou is the most stable and harmonious region.

But as everyone knows, although the battles among literati are not bloody, they are more cruel.

Zhongzhou, Holy Academy Literary Hall.

"Is there any news from the teacher?"

Shuhan, who had been back in Zhongzhou for a long time, now looked a little haggard and asked with a low expression.

"All the lecturers in the college went looking for it, but..."

A Confucian scholar glanced at Shuhan, as if he was hesitant to speak.

"That's it, let's go down."

Shuhan waved his hand a little tiredly.

After the Confucian scholar left, he stood up and looked out the window, murmuring absentmindedly, "Teacher, where on earth have you been?"

"Disciple, I can't hold it any longer."

Li Qingchen's disappearance started a split within the already disharmonious Confucianism and Taoism.

There are two factions of Confucianism and Taoism. One is the Holy Academy headed by Confucian Immortals, which is based on self-reliance and self-improvement.

On the other side, there are those great Confucian scholars who pay attention to relying on the court as officials and supplementing their practice with the luck of the ten countries.

Originally, when the Chaotang lineage first appeared, literary students all cheered.

Because they found that the blessing of national luck can make their Confucianism and Taoism practice smoother and make breakthroughs easier.

At that time, a large number of students entered the Ten Kingdoms Court.

As an official, he cultivated Confucianism and Taoism.

Originally this was a good thing, it could not only assist in spiritual practice, but also spread the word to the world.

However, how can the fame and fortune fair of the Royal Court be so easy to treat?

Officials protect each other, exchange favors, and bend the law for personal gain

Rights are embodied in the court.

One word determines life and death, one word brings wealth.

People who practice Confucianism pay the most attention to 'virtue'.

But even if a person with a strong mind is sitting in a high hall, facing the temptation of beauty, resources, wealth, power, etc., can he still stick to his heart?

Since then, there has been a new vocabulary in Confucianism and Taoism, "complicit in evil!"

A large number of Confucian and Taoist students entered the court. Although their cultivation gradually improved, their 'virtue' gradually deteriorated.

The tainted Confucianism and Taoism are despised by people all over the world. What's more, they once did the feat of burning books and humiliating Confucians!

In Confucianism and Taoism at that time, there were countless powerful people, and they seemed to have infinite glory.

But in fact, the character of Confucianism and Taoism is gradually disappearing.

Until the Confucian scholar named Li Qingchen appeared!

He used ruthless methods to bloodbath Zhongzhou and suppressed thousands of great scholars!

There was an ironclad order that anyone who entered the court as an official would be killed!

The unreasonable scholar saved the building from collapse with his own efforts, saving the last bit of dignity for Confucianism and Taoism.

It also rebuilt the Holy Academy to serve as a guiding light for students all over the world and create a holy place for Confucianism and Taoism.

It is not until today that Confucianism and Taoism are back on track.

However.

Having tasted the taste of power and tried the rapid cultivation coupled with national destiny, how could those great scholars be willing to accept it?

They lurked for a long time, just waiting for an opportunity.

Now that the prosperous age is coming, they can't wait any longer and plan to overthrow the Confucian and Immortal lineage in one fell swoop at the literary event in six months' time!

And the recent disappearance of Li Qingchen made them even more unscrupulous.

From their cautious probing at the beginning, they have now become blatant, and many of them have entered the court again as officials.

Not only that, people from the imperial family were even secretly wooing students from the Holy Academy during this period.

He planned to pull out all the stops and completely overthrow the Holy Academy's status as a holy land of Confucianism and Taoism.

"Hey, how to break the situation?"

Shuhan frowned. The huge pressure during this period made him breathless.

"Senior Brother Shuhan!"

Just then, a female voice came in a hurry from outside the hall.

I saw a man and a woman crossing the door and coming side by side.

And these two people were also acquaintances, they were Lingsi and Erniu who had just returned from Sword God Mountain.

"You guys are here."

Seeing the person coming, Shuhan heaved a sigh of relief and forced a smile on his face.

A grand literary event is about to begin, and a large number of Confucian scholars from all over the world will gather in Zhongzhou City.

But the Chaotang lineage happened to cause trouble at this time, and tempted those Confucian scholars to join the Chaotang.

Their method is also very simple. They introduce a few outstanding disciples, impress everyone with their literary talent, and then take the opportunity to talk about the advantages of serving as an official in the court.

How can those students who are new to Confucianism and Taoism resist such temptations?

If it is not stopped, I am afraid that without the opening of the literary festival, the Holy Academy will exist in name only.

There is no other way. At this time, the Holy Academy can only resort to tricks and send out outstanding disciples to stop or suppress those disciples of the imperial family.

And it was a helpless move to find Lingsi. There were really not enough manpower, especially the talented Confucian and Taoist genius with amazing literary talent.

"Zi Zhen, nerd, why haven't you seen me for a while? You are almost an old man?"

Looking at Shuhan, who had bloodshot eyes and a haggard look on his face, Erniu's eyes showed surprise, but he said unforgivingly.

Without asking any further questions, Shuhan could tell how serious the situation in the Holy Academy was at this time.

"Go away, I have no intention of arguing with you."

Shuhan glared at Erniu angrily, then looked at Lingsi and said solemnly:

"When you come back, you'll see what's going on in Zhongzhou."

Speaking of this, Lingsi suddenly looked angry, "I saw it!"

"Those disciples of great Confucian scholars are so brave, they actually lobby other Confucian scholars on the street to join the court!"

"If it weren't for the reputation of the Holy Academy and Confucian Immortals, many people would have agreed immediately."

"Even so, I think there are still many people who are tempted."

Erniu also learned some about the internal contradictions of Confucianism and Taoism during this period.

When he heard this, he curled his lips and said, "According to me, you should learn from the Confucian Immortals and kill a lot of them ruthlessly."

"Whoever refuses to accept, just kill them with one sword."

Lingsi glared at Erniu speechlessly, "If you don't understand, just stop talking."

"If you resolve the internal conflicts between Confucianism and Taoism with a sword, wouldn't that ruin the reputation of the Holy Academy?"

Shuhan sighed helplessly after hearing this, "That's the problem."

"The Confucian Immortal was able to kill everyone because he cultivated Confucianism and used the four arts."

"Would you like to try another martial artist?"

"I'm afraid even if we kill all those great scholars, they won't bow their heads."

"The internal contradictions between Confucianism and Taoism can only be resolved by Confucianism and Taoism."

"You can write articles to scold him, and you can use the Four Arts to kill him, but if you use force other than Confucianism and Taoism, even if you win, people will look down on you."

Erniu was stunned when he heard this. This was the first time he heard this statement.

"Senior Brother Shuhan, what should we do now?" Lingsi asked.

"First, find my teacher, Confucian Immortal."

"Second, stabilize the chaos outside Zhongzhou City."

"third."

Shuhan looked at Lingsi and said solemnly: "You must get first place in the literary event in half a year!"

"Otherwise, Confucianism and Taoism will be in danger!"

At this time, only the most valuable number one in the literary world can awaken students all over the world and win back people's hearts.

The Chaotang lineage has inherent advantages. If students all over the world see it, the number one in the literary world is also a person from the Chaotang lineage.

The lineage of Confucians and Immortals is destined to lose.

"Huh? Number one?"

"I"

Ling Siben's energetic little face froze, and he faltered without confidence:

"I can still compete in the top three, but I'm afraid I won't be able to compete in the top three."

"Mu Yun from the Mu family has already mastered Taoism in both arts, and her poems, lyrics and songs are very good. I'm afraid."

Before Lingsi could finish what he said, Erniu became anxious.

"What are you afraid of?"

"You are here, sir. How can I be number one in the literary world? Isn't it easy to catch me?"

"A master of both arts? Are you good at poetry, poetry, and song? Even Chang Qing, who had not left Qingshan Village more than a year ago, could hang him up and beat him."

"Now that bullshit Mu Yun is not even worthy of carrying Chang Qing's shoes. Do you believe it or not?"

Erniu has 10,000% confidence in his young master.

What kind of Confucian and Taoist arrogant girl can't even be beaten by Changqing even if she is tied up?

"You think I don't want to find Chang Qing?"

"As long as the chief minister is here, let him walk around outside the city. Not to mention those students, even the disciples of the imperial family will have to defect."

After saying that, Shuhan said weakly: "But do you dare to call Chang Qing here now?"

"The awe-inspiring spirit that Chang Qing has in Emperor Wen's sculptures can almost make him a saint in one day."

"Are you sure Territory Lord Su won't break your legs?"

At the beginning, Ruxian and Sunan kept secret Changqing's talent for fear of being exposed.

Sunan even spent eighteen years building Qingshan Village and cultivating Changqing's character.

If this incident disrupted any of Territory Lord Su's plans, it would probably be more terrifying than the civil strife between Confucianism and Taoism.

"I'm sorry, I forgot."

Erniu smiled coquettishly upon hearing this.

If Chang Qing suddenly becomes a saint after walking around Zhongzhou, the head of the family will have to beat him to death.

The Imperial Path has not yet appeared. Once you become a saint, you will basically have no connection with the Great Emperor, and it will be impossible to rebuild it.

Of course, what a few people don’t know yet is.

After these days, Su Changqing has completely understood his talent.

I also discovered the true power of the four arts I learned.

Even if Shuhan doesn't look for Su Changqing, I'm afraid Su Changqing himself will look for him some time later.

"Senior Brother Shuhan, what should we do next?"

Lingsi also had no idea and looked at Shuhan eagerly.

"You go to the city first and drive away those Confucian disciples."

Shuhan looked at Lingsi, blinked and said, "If you can't beat me, just ask Changqing to borrow two poems. It's not the first time anyway."

"Remember to ask Changqing to write some ruthless songs to suppress the arrogance of those great Confucian disciples."

Ling Si's pretty face turned red when she heard this, and she glared at Er Niu fiercely.

Her dark history, because of this stupid cow, is completely impossible to survive.

Erniu scratched his head in embarrassment, smiled, and looked away hurriedly.

"As for the others, I have to arrange more manpower to find teachers."

Shuhan frowned and said: "If there is no teacher in charge, if a fight breaks out, we are afraid..."

Buzz!

Before Shuhan could finish his words, the communication talisman around his waist suddenly vibrated.

When he picked it up and took a look, he was immediately refreshed and beamed with joy.

[Eldest Brother Bogu: I am in the Eastern Region, and I have a clue about the teacher. Stabilize the situation and wait for me and the teacher to return]

…

The eastern region is filled with thousands of miles of barren mountains.

There is no vegetation and no living beings here. The evil spirit in the sky is floating around, and the silence is a bit scary.

At this time, a man wearing a virtuous crown and a long robe, with some gray hair and meticulously combed hair, suddenly descended into the air.

"This is."

Bogu looked down at Chidi with a serious look on his face, "A suppressed dark restricted area?"

As the eldest disciple of Confucian Immortal, Bogu's cultivation is very strong, and he can vaguely feel the strangeness of the land under his feet.

Only the legendary dark restricted area can exude the kind of uncomfortable atmosphere that makes people feel conflicted from the depths of their souls.

"Why did the connection with the teacher suddenly stop from here?"

Bo Gu stood in the air, his expression uncertain.

He practiced the Chess World·Immortal Finger, one of the four arts of the immortals, and had already entered the Dao.

The four arts of the immortals are very strange. They are originally a complete set. After entering the Dao with the four arts, they will have an inexplicable connection with people who practice the same way.

During this period of time, Zhongzhou has undergone drastic changes. Bo Gu traveled around the continent at the first time, using the connection between the four arts to find the missing Li Qingchen.

The continent is very large. He went to many places but found nothing. He was even about to give up.

But just when he was about to return to the Holy Academy, the connection suddenly became strong in this area.

He thought he had found the teacher, but the moment he approached this place, the connection disappeared strangely.

"Did the teacher mistakenly enter the dark restricted area and was trapped inside?"

The rise of this idea made Bo Gu's face change instantly, and he was anxious.

He ran straight to the depths of the Wanli Desolate Mountain without any hesitation.

Ordinary people would naturally run as far as they could when they knew it was a dark restricted area.

But Bogu, who was eager to save people and had the peak cultivation of a great sage, decided to give it a try.

But who knew that before he could fly far, a large barrier surrounded by strange black fog suddenly appeared.

"Open!"

Bogu raised his sword eyebrows, and his two fingers fell like twisters, and a huge chessboard that blocked the sky and the sun suddenly unfolded from under his feet.

He slammed his two fingers on the large formation, and the terrifying aura made the void tear apart.

But the strange thing was that this powerful finger could not even shake the large formation.

The large formation was like a ferocious beast with a huge mouth in the dark, swallowing all the energy breath silently.

But this attack was not without effect, and the sense that was cut off appeared again!

This discovery made Bogu's pupils suddenly shrink,

"The teacher is really in there!"

...

Small world, Xianling Sect

"Master, the forbidden area of ​​Wanli Wild Mountain has been rumbling for a while. A great sage is constantly bombarding the formation."

A few days later, the Xianling Sect, which was not too far from the forbidden area, discovered something unusual in the forbidden area and hurried to report it.

Now that the creatures of the forbidden area have appeared, such things cannot be taken lightly.

"Bombarding the forbidden area? Who is it?" Xianfu asked with a frown.

The location of the Xianling Sect is to suppress the forbidden area of ​​Wild Mountain and prevent the darkness from coming.

But generally speaking, most of the creatures in the forbidden area want to come out, and it is rare for the human race on the mainland to want to go in.

Or, they can't get in even if they want to. The terrifying defense of the formation is extremely difficult to break even for the quasi-emperor.

"It's the disciple of the Confucian Immortal, the chess sage Bogu, from the Zhongzhou Saint Academy." The elder said truthfully.

"The disciple of the Confucian Immortal"

Xianfu didn't know what she thought of, and a look of realization appeared in her eyes.

After she pondered for a moment, she waved her hand and sighed, "Forget it, let him go."

"With his power, he can't damage the formation at all, just treat it as a vague hope."

Because it is very close to the forbidden area of ​​​​the barren mountain, Xianfu knows something about Li Qingchen's past.

Moreover, the barren mountain shook some time ago, and thousands of dragons roared, killing intent was overwhelming.

At that time, Xianfu knew that Li Qingchen had stepped into the forbidden area again, but this time, it was very difficult for the other party to come out again.

"I didn't expect that the great Ruxian was also a lovesick person."

Xianfu looked in the direction of the forbidden area and sighed, "For a woman who must die, why bother."

"Now Confucianism is in danger, but without you in charge, I'm afraid there will be no more Holy Academy in the future."

As she said, she shook her head, "Forget it, what does Confucianism have to do with my Xianling Sect."

"It's still important to do business, see how Meng'er and Changqing are doing."

Accompanied by a series of whispers, Xianfu disappeared in the hall.

At the same time

Su Changqing, who was in a loft of the Xianling Sect, was looking out at the outside world with a frown on his face, a little absent-minded.

"Why have I been feeling palpitations these past few days?"

"What exactly is that special sensation?"
