Zhou Wen couldn't help but sit down and become one of them. He began reciting with them.
The cadence of Zhou Wen's recitation made him feel as though he was very familiar with it, but he had no idea what he was reciting.
Thankfully, the mysterious power of Teacher Square wasn't harmful. It only made him sit there and read. Nothing further happened. Zhou Wen wasn't in a hurry to escape the control of the mysterious power. He wanted to figure out what the mysterious power wanted.
There were already more than a hundred people sitting on the huge Teacher Square. They looked like they were all cultivators. Zhou Wen felt that it wasn't a coincidence that they were here.
Why didn't the information on Mount Confucius mention that Teacher Square has such a strange power? As Zhou Wen recited, he studied the content he had recited.
The content was very obscure and difficult to understand. The grammar and words were very different from modern people. It was clearly an ancient article.
Zhou Wen's literary attainment was very average. He could still understand some simple ancient texts, but he really couldn't understand such obscure ancient texts.
Previously, Zhou Wen had also studied the ancient texts of Daoism and Buddhism, but this ancient text was clearly not the same system as the other two. He had never heard of many words before, and he couldn't figure out what they meant after listening for a while.
Zhou Wen originally wanted to memorize the article he had recited and slowly study it in the future, but he soon realized that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember a single word.
After reciting a sentence, it was as if it had disappeared from his memory. He couldn't remember it at all.
From the looks of it, I can only use a recording technique. Zhou Wen wanted to take out his phone and record his voice.
However, he realized that his body wasn't listening to him. All he could do was sit there and recite. He couldn't do anything else.
With a thought, Zhou Wen switched his Essence Energy Art to the Dao Sutra. He wanted to use the power of Gods Retreat to break the rules of Teacher Square so that he could take out his phone to record.
Bam!
Just as Zhou Wen switched to the Dao Sutra, he suddenly felt a terrifying force strike him like lightning. Even the jade infant nearly cracked from the impact.
Zhou Wen's body rolled down Teacher Square like a balloon. Thankfully, after leaving Teacher Square, Zhou Wen regained control of his body and quickly stabilized himself.
He spat out a mouthful of blood. His organs were severely injured, and some of his bones had cracks. Zhou Wen was alarmed. Is the taboo power of Teacher Square that domineering?
But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that something was amiss.
The taboo power of Netherworld City was already very terrifying, but it wasn't that strong. The taboo power of Teacher Square couldn't be explained with the word strong. Zhou Wen felt that the taboo power of Teacher Square was targeting him.
"Wait, I think I understand." Zhou Wen immediately recalled.
Legend had it that Mount Confucius was a place where the Confucian and Daoist sects fought for victory. Teacher Square was the Confucian school's territory. Since he had used the Dao Sutra on Teacher Square, there was a high chance that he had been targeted.
In that case, I should head to Laojun Peak to take a look. That's the Daoist's territory. Zhou Wen wanted to stand up, but his injuries were too serious. The moment he moved, he gritted his teeth in pain.
"I'd better heal my injuries first." Zhou Wen switched to the Defy Ancient Sovereign Life Soul and used the Defy Ancient Sovereign's powerful vitality to repair his injured organs and bones.
However, the Defy Ancient Sovereign only had a powerful vitality. Its self-healing speed was far inferior to Li Xuan's Life Soul.
The antelope looked at Zhou Wen gloatingly. It was as though this fellow had long known about the mysteries of Teacher Square.
The chick hopped on the rocks beside him. It was filled with curiosity about everything.
A woman in her thirties walked over and squatted down to look at Zhou Wen. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. It's just a small injury." Zhou Wen shook his head.
The woman smiled and said, "You're an outsider. This is your first time coming to Mount Confucius's Teacher Square, right?"
"How did you know?" Zhou Wen asked.
"The locals know that Daoist Essence Energy Arts can't be used on Teacher Square. You must have used a Daoist Essence Energy Art just now to be sent out," the woman explained.
The recital had already ended. The people sitting on Teacher Square had returned to normal and were walking down in groups of twos and threes.
They looked at Zhou Wen with a hint of a smile. Clearly, like the woman, they knew why Zhou Wen had been sent out.
"Teacher Square is a holy land for cultivating Confucian Essence Energy Arts like Righteousness. If you cultivate Daoist Essence Energy Arts, you should go to Elder Supreme Lord's Peak."
The woman thought for a moment and reminded him, "Teacher Square has an hour of reading every day at this time. If you want to tour, you can go up after missing this hour."
"Thank you for your guidance. I wonder if there are any taboos on Elder Supreme Lord's Peak?" Zhou Wen hurriedly asked.
"Not really. There are Daoist books on Elder Supreme Lord's Peak, but it's all about self-enlightenment. No force will force you." The woman sized up Zhou Wen and said, "Your injuries don't seem light. Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
"There's no need. I'll be fine after resting for a while." Zhou Wen hurriedly thanked the woman for her kindness.
After the woman left, Zhou Wen sat there to recuperate. However, his injuries were too serious. He waited until the next day when the woman and many people who cultivated Confucian Essence Energy Arts came to Teacher Square again. Zhou Wen's injuries hadn't completely healed.
"Why are you still here? Are you really fine? "the woman asked Zhou Wen in surprise.
Typically speaking, even if someone was sent flying, they wouldn't be too seriously injured.
"It's fine, it's fine. I just saw the scenery here and wanted to rest here," Zhou Wen said with a smile.
Ordinary people wouldn't be so seriously injured, but not only had Zhou Wen used a Dao Sutra, but he had also used Gods Retreat to break through the taboo power of Teacher Square. That was why he was so seriously injured.
When the woman saw that Zhou Wen's expression was much better than yesterday, she didn't say anything else. Like the others, she went to Teacher Square and sat down. Not long after, Zhou Wen heard the familiar sound of reading again.
Those people basically came to Teacher Square to study every day. Zhou Wen chatted with the woman a few times and knew that others called her Sister Gui.
According to Sister Gui, studying on Teacher Square was twice the result with half the effort when cultivating Confucian Essence Energy Arts. However, there were very few people who cultivated Confucian Essence Energy Arts now. Therefore, the people who came to Teacher Square every day were basically acquaintances. They had long known each other.
After more than two days, Zhou Wen finally recovered from his injuries. However, his injuries were secondary. The main thing was that the jade infant's injuries had only fully recovered now.
After recovering, the jade infant gave Zhou Wen a strange feeling as though it was about to break through.
Could it be that injuries help the jade infant's breakthrough? A thought surfaced in Zhou Wen's mind.
