Four thunderous sounds echoed in the ears of All the Saints.
Starting from the East Sea, to the North Sea, the West Sea, and finally the South Sea, four thunderous sounds rang out in succession.
Demon Realm.
“Hahaha…”
A brutal laughter spread throughout the Demon Realm, with fierce flames soaring into the sky, followed by arrogant laughter everywhere.
The war at the Mountain of Two Realms came to a halt.
The seabed of the Prison Sea trembled slightly.
…
Everything in the Holy Land remained as usual, with Fang Yun still unconscious.
After an unknown period of time, Fang Yun felt incredibly comfortable all over his body, especially his head, which had been on the verge of splitting, was now completely pain-free.
A thought crossed Fang Yun’s mind, and he found himself in the Palace of Literature.
“Has the poison in the Palace of Literature been neutralized?” Fang Yun was overjoyed, then looked around.
The Palace of Literature was several times larger than before, even appearing somewhat empty. The self-statue, the Heart of Literature, the stars of the Palace of Literature, the murals of the Palace of Literature, and other things seemed the same as before, but there were some indescribable additions.
The biggest change was in the talent.
After obtaining the Heart of Literature with outstanding talent, Fang Yun gained an additional talent. Now, there were three orange talents in the Palace of Literature!
The previous talent of the Accomplished Scholar was as thin as a needle, but the current talent was as thick as a thumb, which was the talent of the Presented Scholar!
Three talents, each an inch long, floated in the Palace of Literature.
“With three talents, my future talent can be described as endless. There are ten inches in a foot, and ten points in an inch. After becoming a Presented Scholar, the total amount of talent is dozens of times that of an Accomplished Scholar, so the use of talent is calculated in points. When I was an Accomplished Scholar, even if I had twice the talent, using more than ten War Poetries would exhaust my talent. But after becoming a Presented Scholar, it’s completely different, it’s like heaven and earth, it’s the starting point where scholars are stronger than the Demon Barbarians!”
Fang Yun looked at the talent with joy, then looked up at the Courage to Write in the sky.
This crystal-clear Courage to Write, like a crystal, was emitting a thin layer of pure white light.
The Courage to Write has reached the peak of the first realm!
One more step, and it would be the second realm of the Courage to Write.
“With the Courage to Write reaching the peak of the first realm, many of the Demon General’s techniques can’t hurt me, as long as I’m careful with the techniques of the Saint Clan’s Demon Generals.”
Fang Yun felt as if he had seen the light of day, the mountain that had been pressing on his heart was finally pushed away.
“But what happened just now? The Palace of Literature exploded and then recovered. This is not the result of the God of Literature’s five movements refining the Palace of Literature, but something that could only happen when the Palace of Literature is reshaped. It seems that while I was unconscious, not only did I receive the talent infusion and advance to the Presented Scholar before the Saint, but I also miraculously received the God of Literature’s illumination. If the Child Scholar before the Saint and the Accomplished Scholar before the Saint are considered ‘born of heaven’s gate’, then after the Palace of Literature is reshaped by the God of Literature, it is ‘directly transmitted from heaven’, which is even more extraordinary.”
Fang Yun found it incredible, looking at the unpredictable book of heaven and earth in the hand of his self-statue. After quietly watching for a moment, he withdrew his divine consciousness.
“Uh…”
Fang Yun thought that with the poison in the Palace of Literature gone, the poison on his body would naturally be neutralized. But he found his body incredibly itchy, as if he was growing flesh, and he still couldn’t control his body. After a little thought, the medical books he had read made him understand the reason.
“The poison can be neutralized, but the injury is hard to heal. Even if the light of the God of Literature can dispel all the poison, even if I have received the talent infusion five times, even if the residual power of the God of Literature is still there, it will take some time to recover. The previous body was too badly damaged by the poison. If it weren’t for the pseudo-dragon pearl and the power of the medical books suppressing it, the whole body would probably have been corroded into pus by the poison.”
Fang Yun was no longer worried, but he heard a Demon Barbarian shouting outside: “Quickly get into the mountain. It’s going to rain!”
The people at the foot of the mountain immediately sprang into action, and the Savage Cow rushed in with two barbarians. The two barbarians were extremely strong, lifting Fang Yun as easily as picking up a bowl with chopsticks.
Fang Yun wanted to speak, but he still couldn’t say anything. He blinked his eyes to express his gratitude, then looked at the sky. It seemed that the sun had just set.
Fang Yun was puzzled. Normally, Li Fanming and the others should have returned by now, but all he could hear were the voices of the Demon Clan. There was no sound of human language. The rabbit was also not there. Li Fanming was injured yesterday, and the rabbit was worried, so it followed them today.
Fang Yun looked at the Savage Cow.
The Savage Cow, as a Demon General, might be confused about small matters but not about big ones. Seeing the change in Fang Yun’s eyes, he thought for a moment and said, “Your Majesty, they haven’t come back yet. Only the one who wanted to harm you is still here.”
Fang Yun blinked his eyes to show that he understood.
The Savage Cow snorted coldly and said, “Our village has treasures. As long as we enter the cave, ordinary strange winds and Weak Water can’t get close, and no strange plants or beasts dare to approach. I really hope that person is foolish enough to try and steal the treasures of our village, and then anger the Demon Generals.”
Only then did Fang Yun remember about taking shelter from the rain. The Weak Water was very special, ordinary things couldn’t block it at all. The humans relied on the Courage to Write and the Palace of Literature, and the Demon Barbarians relied on their vitality. Moreover, there were very few Treasures of Literature that could block the Weak Water and strange winds. Among the hundred people who entered the Holy Land, probably only a dozen or so had such treasures.
Ordinary water couldn’t enter the mountain, but the Weak Water could easily penetrate the mountain. Since this village had treasures that could resist the Weak Water and strange winds, these caves were very safe.
Fang Yun didn’t think much about the treasures here. Since the Demon Barbarians of this village had helped him, even if the treasures were very good, he shouldn’t covet them. As for Xun Ye, no matter how greedy he was, he wouldn’t dare to snatch treasures under the eyes of the Demon Generals.
Fang Yun sighed, thinking about Li Fanming and the others, hoping they would return safely. The two people who had been injured in their legs, although they had been fitted with prosthetics by the Presented Scholar who understood mechanical techniques, and also had the War Poetry of Rapid Movement, their strength was still affected.
The shouts of the Demon Barbarians were heard one after another, and before long, all the barbarians had evacuated.
Fang Yun and seven or eight barbarians were arranged in a cave together.
Fang Yun looked at the night sky outside, which was getting darker and darker. Soon, a light rain began to fall, which looked no different from the rain in the Jade Sea, but it was fraught with danger.
The Holy Land in the rain was like an endless river of Weak Water!
Fang Yun became increasingly worried. Since those people hadn’t returned, they were likely to have encountered problems.
After another quarter of an hour, a Demon Barbarian suddenly roared, “Someone’s coming, and there are more of them! It looks like they’re being chased!”
Fang Yun’s brows furrowed.The Savage Cow immediately ran to the cave entrance to look outside, and hurriedly returned after a while, saying, “Your Majesty, the Moon Emperor, things are not looking good! There are nearly twenty people this time, your friends are among them, but they are more severely injured than yesterday. They are now in the Weak Water, some of them might not be able to climb up the mountain. They keep looking back, there must be someone chasing them! It seems to be those Demon Barbarians. However… as long as the Demon Barbarians don’t kill us, we won’t save the humans.”
Fang Yun’s heart was filled with even more anxiety, but the poison in his body was too deep, he still couldn’t move, and could only helplessly watch the drizzle in the night sky.
The Savage Cow touched his own horns and said, “Your Majesty, the Moon Emperor, rest assured, we don’t care about their life or death, but I will take care of yours! If they want to kill you, they have to kill me first. If they kill me, the other Star Barbarians won’t stand by, hehe.”
Fang Yun felt even more helpless, not wanting to see his friends die.
The Savage Cow took a few more steps, looked outside, suddenly spat, and walked back, saying, “The person who wants to harm you didn’t even come out. I just saw him, he has a Treasure of Literature that can avoid the Weak Water, but now he doesn’t dare to go and meet your friends.”
Fang Yun didn’t expect Xun Ye to be so afraid of death, fearing the loss of talent and energy, in case there was a large army of Demon Barbarians chasing after him, he could have enough talent and energy to escape.
“Indeed, the Holy Land is the cruelest world, and only in the Holy Land can one truly see a person’s true colors. When Sword Eyebrow Duke entered the Holy Land, he was ambushed by a friend for a piece of holy jade and almost died in the Holy Land, but in the end, he killed him. That friend begged for mercy before he died, but he didn’t hesitate at all, and beheaded him with a war of words, eliminating any threat. Before leaving, he split the blood-stained holy jade in half, threw half on the friend’s corpse, and took the other half with him.”
Fang Yun took a deep breath to calm himself down, because apart from trying to recover his body as soon as possible, he couldn’t do anything else. So he recalled a medical book “Ghost Prescriptions of Liu Juanzi”, written by the great scholar Liu Juanzi. Although the book was not as valuable as Zhang Zhongjing’s “Treatise on Cold Pathogenic and Miscellaneous Diseases”, it was superior in terms of treating wounds and detoxification, and was a must-have medical book for military doctors.
Fang Yun kept reciting “Ghost Prescriptions of Liu Juanzi” silently, hoping that his talent and energy could be transformed into the power of medicine to heal himself. Although he didn’t have a medical book at the moment, as long as he knew how to heal, he could use his talent and energy to heal himself, but the effect was far less than that of a medical book, and even worse than taking medicine, but it was better than doing nothing.
The Savage Cow simply stood at the entrance of the cave, constantly telling Fang Yun what was happening outside.
“One person has fainted, and another person is carrying him and running towards us. It seems that they all have experience and know that our villages mostly have treasures that can avoid the strange wind of the Weak Water.”
“They have arrived at the foot of the mountain and entered the cave under the mountain, they are temporarily safe. I’ll go and tell them that you are safe, so they don’t have to worry.”
The Savage Cow said, a layer of blood light appeared around his body, and he rushed down in the rain. He came back after a while and said, “They said, you must hide well, don’t let those Demon Barbarians see you. They will rest for a while, and when they recover their talent and energy, they will fight the Demon Barbarians! The person with the rabbit also told me to take good care of you. Don’t worry, Your Majesty, the Moon Emperor!”
Fang Yun knew that he couldn’t do anything at the moment, so he simply closed his eyes and kept reciting “Ghost Prescriptions of Liu Juanzi” silently.
At first, it was very quiet outside, but an hour later, there was a slight vibration from the ground, as if a giant beast was approaching step by step.
The Savage Cow stood at the entrance of the cave, his face changed, and said, “Not good! It’s the Great Demon Elephant, there are three of them, the tallest one is three zhang high! A Demon General is this tall, it must be a Holy Clan Demon Elephant! And there is a barbarian sitting on the Holy Clan Demon Elephant, that barbarian’s identity, if not the son of the Barbarian Saint, then the grandson of the Barbarian Saint! It seems that they also have treasures that can avoid the Weak Water.”
“Huh? There are also rebellious literati, no wonder those people are so miserable. With the rebellious literati strategizing, plus the Demon Barbarians, your human race is really not good.” The Savage Cow suddenly shut his mouth, fearing that Fang Yun would get angry.
The more Fang Yun listened, the more serious his expression became, but his heart was not as anxious as before, because he found that his hands and lips could move!
“There’s hope!” Fang Yun couldn’t help but get excited.
