Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 223: Battle of Tianmiguan

"It turns out to be Master Lingyue."

Wen Guanshan landed and stood looking at Lingyue with a smile. "You betrayed the classics and teachings of the ancient sages, and changed them without permission. You were expelled by your teacher, and we are not from the same sect, so you don't have to call me senior brother."

Master Lingyue's gaze flickered. "Why can't we change the classics of the old sages? If they are outdated and cannot keep up with the times, they must be changed. If we don't change them, we will be punished! I changed the old sage's teachings to let Confucianism flourish. If my teacher doesn't understand, I can do nothing about it. I don't know why senior brother wants to kill the Holy Buddha and Dao Saint."

Wen Guanshan looked towards Hua Hu and the others who had fled, but did not directly answer his question. "Our teacher committed suicide and died in Tian Shi Yuan. Only you, as the abandoned disciple, have been tirelessly searching for the truth behind our teacher's death all these years. Lingyue, let me see how much progress you have made in your studies of the old classics."

Hua Hu led Dao Saint and Holy Buddha in a desperate escape, moving at lightning speed. Holy Buddha and Dao Saint were barely alive, with very serious injuries.

Suddenly, thunder roared from behind, and an incredibly bright light shone, illuminating Tian Shi Yuan in chaos and stretching the shadows of the mountains.

Hua Hu's heart sank, knowing that it must be Master Lingyue who had taken action.

As Master Lingyue's disciple, he knew his master's abilities very well. From the sound of the thunder, he could tell that Master Lingyue had used all his strength!

"Master is fighting with all his might!"

Hua Hu gritted his teeth and ran forward. "The Temple of Wen Saint is not far away! Once we get there, we'll be safe!"

At night, ghosts and demons roamed the chaotic area, making it extremely dangerous. They needed to find a temple to rest. The Wen Chang Academy worshipped Wen Saint, so every time they came to Tian Shi Yuan for training, they would stay at the Temple of Wen Saint.

In the distance, the Temple of Wen Saint was visible. Hua Hu gathered his strength and ran towards it.

Thunder and lightning poured around him, coming down from the sky. The thunderbolts were extremely thick, and Hua Hu was unable to control such a thunder tribulation.

Master Lingyue had once told him that changing the classics of the old sages would bring about a thunder tribulation. The teachings of the old sages had benefited the world for five thousand years, and people had been enlightened by them. The classics were like the way of heaven.

The name of the Tian Dao Academy came from this. The Tian Dao Academy was a place to study the teachings of the sages.

As the descendants of the sages, they had to change the outdated teachings of the old sages into new ones.

Master Lingyue once said to him, "The ancient teachings of the saints from thousands of years ago can guide the future for thousands of years, but now the ancient teachings have remained unchanged and have fallen behind the world by one or two hundred years. We need to make changes and turn the old teachings into new ones, so that they can keep up with the world and the times. We may not be able to make Confucianism a new teaching that can guide the future for thousands of years, but as long as we pave the way, there will definitely be a new saint of Confucianism who can achieve this in the future!"

Hua Hu had never seen such a terrifying tribulation. Master Lingyue must have also changed the unchangeable parts of the ancient scriptures!

This was extremely dangerous!

"Even if the master doesn't die in that person's hands, he will die under the heavenly tribulation!"

Tears streamed down Hua Hu's face as he continued to run with all his might. Dao Saint and Holy Buddha, who were lifted by his vitality, looked at the lightning in the sky and marveled.

"Old man Cen's disciple has really walked an amazing path. If Old man Cen were still alive, he would be extremely pleased and realize that he was wrong."

"How stubborn was Saint Cen? He expelled others from his sect. How could he admit his mistake?"

"Master Lingyue's ideas are good, but unfortunately he has not practiced for long enough and was crushed all the way by Prime Minister Wen."

At this moment, lightning flashed and Master Lingyue flew over Hua Hu's head, smashing a forest!

"Who dares to hurt the teacher of my Wenchang Academy?"

In the Wensheng Temple, a figure rose slowly and met Wen Guanshan head-on. It was Zuo Songyan.

.

He personally led the academy's teachers and scholars to enter the Tian Shi Yuan for training, and by coincidence, paid respects to the Wenchang Emperor. When the thunder sounded just now, he went straight to the Wensheng Temple, naturally alarming him.

"So it's Prime Minister Wen! Master Lingyue's death is my Wenchang Academy's fault. If you killed him, who will take the blame for my academy?"

With his divine powers exploding, Zuo Songyan blocked Wen Guanshan, and the two fought fiercely.

Hua Hu quickly waved his hand, and his vitality turned into a black cloud, lifting up Master Lingyue who had fallen in the forest.

Master Lingyue had not yet died, still hanging on to his last breath. He exerted all his strength and hoarsely said, "Old Piao's son can't even stop Prime Minister Wen. Go to Shuofang... " After speaking, he tilted his head and passed out.

Hua Hu ran with all his might, heading towards Shuofang in the dark.

The battle in the air was extremely intense. Zuo Songyan was stronger than Master Lingyue, but he could only resist Wen Guanshan for a moment.

But it was only for a moment.

Hua Hu felt the pressure of Wen Guanshan crushing down on Zuo Songyan and coming straight towards them, causing him to be horrified.

"Boom!"

Zuo Songyan flew out from above them, smashing a mountain and causing it to collapse.Just then, amidst the hustle and bustle of carriages and horses, the Great Emperor was touring the Heavenly Market Wall, and all sorts of anomalies were appearing in the sky. The voice of Emperor Wenchang said, "Eastern Master, the one who was beaten is my disciple. You must help. However, I am not strong enough, so I ask for your assistance."

"Okay."

Hua Hu was stunned. He saw the disorderly Heavenly Market Wall, with countless tombs floating up and turning into buildings, pavilions, and temples!

Countless ghosts and gods rushed out of the temples and pavilions that were transformed from those tombs, and various spiritual weapons soared into the sky from the tombs, emitting brilliant light.

There were also various stone beasts guarding the tombs, all of which came back to life, looking up and neighing endlessly.

For a moment, the disorderly Heavenly Market Wall was like a mythical world, and countless ghosts and gods were fighting and rushing towards the Warm Pass Mountain under the leadership of a Ghost Emperor.

Dao Saint coughed up blood and gasped, "Old Bald Donkey, we owe a lot of favors. I don't know if we can repay them after we die."

Holy Buddha also spewed out a mouthful of blood, his face darkened. "I wanted to empty the Four Greats, so I closed myself off in the Thunder Sound Tower for decades to resolve all karma. But now..."

Hua Hu didn't have time to care about the two of them. He flew up the mountain and crossed over to the other side, where he saw Zuo Songyan hanging half his body on a rocky reef in a mountain stream, head down in the water.

Hua Hu hurriedly rescued him and found that Zuo Songyan was still alive but seriously injured.

In the sky, one after another ghosts and gods fell down, dead and wounded, and there were ghostly fires everywhere.

"Go to Shuofang."

Zuo Songyan gasped and said, "Hurry to Shuofang to find Doctor Dong. I think I can still be saved..."

Suddenly, a galloping dragon came flying. The voice of Eastern Master came from the sky, "Ride on my horse!"

Hua Hu quickly jumped onto the dragon, placed Dao Saint, Holy Buddha, Zuo Songyan, and Master Lingyue on it, and the dragon's speed reached its peak in just a few steps. With a loud bang, the dragon broke through the air and flew away!

Hua Hu turned his head and saw that the battle in the sky was becoming more and more intense. Just as the fighting was at its fiercest, the Warm Pass Mountain suddenly broke through the encirclement and chased after them!

Eastern Master and the others couldn't catch up!

"Run, run!"

Hua Hu was horrified and urged the dragon to run faster and faster. The dragon's speed became faster and faster, like a fleeting shadow, speeding over the Heavenly Market Wall relay station.

In the moment when they flew over the relay station, Hua Hu suddenly saw a person standing on the small hill behind it with his hands behind his back.

Hua Hu was stunned, "This person seems familiar..."

Every night, demons would attack the small hill behind the relay station, attempting to occupy the high ground and take over the station. However, there were no demons attacking today.

The demons and monsters of the Heavenly Market Wall seemed to be extremely afraid of the person on the hill.In the rear, when Wenguan Mountain caught up, the man on the small hill rose up and intercepted Wenguan Mountain in mid-air.

The two fought in silence in mid-air several times. Each time was perilous, making the Holy Buddha, Dao Saint, Zuo Songyan, and Master Lingyue on Longxiang's back dizzy with shock, unable to suppress their amazement.

In the first clash, Wenguan Mountain used Confucianism's Tianren Sensing, using the heavens and earth as a book, writing articles, borrowing the qi of the heavens and earth as his own righteousness, and using the power of the heavens and earth to kill the enemy.

In the second clash, Wenguan Mountain used the Taoist Peach Blossom Technique, using himself as the heavens and earth, creating the universe, the Taoist natural law, and having the Three Pure Ones within his body, imprisoning the three corpse gods. Even a Dao Saint would be amazed by his mastery of Taoism.

In the third clash, Wenguan Mountain used the Buddhist Golden Body to confront the other person head-on, using the wrathful Ming King's great power to vanquish demons!

But none of these three attacks were successful!

Because the person he was fighting against was also using three kinds of saintly techniques to counter him!

In the fourth clash, both of them used their true skills, and the sound of dragon roars and shakes reverberated in the sky above Tianshi Yuan. After colliding, they separated.

Two figures were bleeding and retreated separately.

"The other person is Xue Qingfu, the Saint Xue of the Xue family!"

Zuo Songyan was stunned and said in a trembling voice, "He's using the True Dragon Sixteen Chapters! How could that bastard save us? And who is the other bastard who can also use the True Dragon Sixteen Chapters?"

Dao Saint on Longxiang's back said in a faint voice, "The other person is Wenguan Mountain, Prime Minister Wen..."

The Holy Buddha was not much better than him, coughing continuously and whispering, "Saint Xue may not be saving us. Prime Minister Wen was injured by us. He should be here to take advantage of the situation and kill Prime Minister Wen..."

Zuo Songyan's injuries were lighter than theirs, and he looked worried. "Shuijing, this old man ran to the capital to change this era. Can he fight against Xue Qingfu and Wenguan Mountain..."

He suddenly cursed, "This old man is really not reassuring! And that guy Su Yun, he's also making people worry to death! The two of them are too naive!"

The Holy Buddha and Dao Saint looked at each other.

Yu Huang Mountain, Dongdu, on the second level.

Regardless of their wealth or status, the people of Dongdu were all attracted to a debate here. The great debate between the new and old schools was held on the forum on the second level of Yu Huang Mountain, covering an area of several miles. Hundreds of scholars came here every day to compete, debate, fight, and learn about the merits of the new and old schools.

The number of scholars who died or were injured every day was increasing.

On the day after Dao Saint left Dongdu, Su Yun brought Ye Luo, Bai Yuelou, and other Tian Dao Academy scholars to the forum of the new and old schools.

"Are the scholars of the Tian Dao Academy also coming out to challenge?" The excitement spread throughout Dongdu.
