The body of the stone statue was made of black marble, and there were circular carvings with a diameter of 30 feet on its chest. The carvings were extremely complicated.
The shape of the stone statue was an upright giant prawn with a sharp head. Its two bulging eyes had no blind spots and were emitting a bright red light. The giant prawn statue not only had two big pincers, but also four smaller arms on both sides of its waist that could be used to attack.
When the five-story giant prawn statue ran, it was like a mini earthquake. The ground rumbled and many gravel objects around shook. The momentum was terrifying.
"It's the statue of the Dragons! It has the strength of an ordinary Demon King. Don't attack elsewhere, just attack their joints. Yun Fang, retreat to the back and be ready to use the defensive battle poem. You don't need to fight. The rest of you, fight with me! "
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Fang Yun immediately took a few steps back and stood behind the six scholars, but his eyes were fixed on the carvings on the statue. Ao Huang had said before that the statue of the Dragons could only be dealt with by brute force. Especially for the Ancient Demons, they could only stop it with their lives.
However, the Dragons had their own way of dealing with it. They only needed to send their dragon power into the carvings on the chest of the statue to seal it for 20 hours.
Before leaping through the Dragon Gate, Fang Yun was not qualified to use the dragon power. Although Wen Gong Coiled Dragon had dragon power, it could not be released and could only be used to protect Wen Gong. However, after Xue Hai's dragon boat formed the projection of the Dragon Gate, Fang Yun found that he could use the dragon power of Wen Gong Coiled Dragon. Although the dragon power was sparse and was only at the level of a young dragon, it was still real dragon power after all. It was more than enough to seal the carvings.
It was not a critical moment now. According to the agreement with Yun Zhaochen, Fang Yun did not need to expose his strength. He first summoned the Lian Shi Assassin, then the General White Horse and the Hanlin Battle Poem Soldier.
The six scholars were very experienced in fighting. They first made the Swift Battle Poem and began to scatter in all directions. Then, they used the Battle Poem Soldier to slow down the statue. Then, they used the powerful scholars to attack the Battle Poem, Battle of Words, and Wen Tai.
Fang Yun retreated while observing the battle of the scholars.
The ten statues were very strong. They were five stories high and everyone could only look up. At first glance, they were unreasonably strong. Even a great scholar would be crushed into meat paste by the pincers.
However, Scholars were good at long-range attacks.
Thousands of soldiers blocked the foot of the war statues like ants. The war statues instinctively smashed with their pincers and kicked with their feet. Their movements were as agile as normal human beings. Usually, a single strike could kill hundreds of generals and soldiers.
The price of killing the soldiers was that their speed was reduced.
Six shining ancient Talent Qi swords danced around the war statue. The war statue was very agile, but the ancient Talent Qi swords were only a foot long. Their speed was faster than three chimes, which was completely beyond the range of what the war statue could capture.
Fang Yun smiled. The Dragons who made these war statues. He would never have thought that the power of a battle of words would appear. Even though there were many types of Ancient Demons, they could not control objects remotely. At most, they could throw some hard objects. It was completely incomparable to a battle of words.
The Cai Qi ancient sword aimed at the joints of the war statue and attacked continuously. Sparks flew in all directions, and the sound of collision rang out continuously.
As Fang Yun watched, he tried to figure out how the six scholars controlled their swords. Soon, he discovered some details that he had overlooked before. He secretly remembered them in his heart.
When the six scholars controlled their swords, they would occasionally use war poems, mainly to block and slow down the war statues. The main offensive force was not only the battle of words, but also the literary platform.
The literary platform was a powerful force formed by the scholars. Just like the battle of words, it could continuously grow.
Fang Yun glanced at the literary platforms of the six scholars. He saw that Yun Zhaochen, Ye Fangge, Tan Hemu, and Lian Pingchao's literary platforms were exactly the same. They were all ordinary literary platforms with a lifelike ancestral hall on top of them.
This was one of the characteristics of the scholars of the Bloodlight Ancient Lands. Most of them used the "ancestral hall literary platform" to absorb power from the strict patriarchal system of the Bloodlight Ancient Lands and turn it into power for battle.
After some observation, Fang Yun discovered that Lian Pingchao was good at using the power of "punishment" in the patriarchal system, such as "evil, unrighteous, and unjust" or "internal strife".
His ancestral hall literary platform would always emit a black stream of air that wrapped around the joints of the war statues and constantly caused damage.
On the other hand, Yun Zhaochen, Tan Hemu, and Ye Fangge mainly used the power of the patriarchal system related to rites.
Fang Yun's gaze fell on Yun Zhaochen. His ancestral hall literary platform emitted a clear light that enveloped one of the war statues. The war statue did not know how to run at all. It only knew how to slowly walk step by step. Every movement was extremely precise. It was obvious that he had used the "patriarch's family rules" to order the war statues to do so.
Ye Fangge used the "direct descendant hierarchy" on Yun Zhaochen's foundation.
His ancestral altar released two beams of clear light that enveloped the two war statues. No matter how the two war statues struggled, they were unable to surpass the war statue that Yun Zhaochen had commanded. This was because they had been designated as lowly bastard sons. They would never be able to surpass the noble son of the first wife.
This was the first time Fang Yun had seen this kind of power. He was quite curious. In the Saint Origin World, due to the strength of legalism, the power of the patriarchal system was unprecedentedly weak. Even the people of the Hall of Rites rarely used the power of the patriarchal system.
However, in the Bloodlight Ancient Land, a large number of scholars had lived under the order of the patriarchal system for hundreds of years. Once the scholars formed the ancestral hall literary platform, their power could not be underestimated.
Fang Yun sighed inwardly. The patriarchal system would eventually be replaced by legalism. Anyone who tried to stop the trend would be crushed by the mighty tide of history.
The Bloodlight Ancient Land was a remote place. As long as the passage to the outside world was not opened, it could continue to be maintained.
Although the war statues outnumbered the scholars, they could only use their bodies for close combat. Even if each of them had the strength of an ordinary Daemon King, they were still toyed around by the six scholars.
In just a hundred breaths, the ten war statues had all fallen to the ground. Their joints had been damaged and would need at least fifteen minutes to recover.
The seven of them gathered together again and quickly rushed forward. They stopped when they were two and a half miles away from the ten war statues. They entered a collapsed palace and controlled the soldiers to search for valuable items while discussing.
Yun Zhaochen said, "The reason why I chose to fight is to familiarize myself with the power of the war statues. As you can see, even if there are dozens of these war statues, they won't be able to do anything to us. However, if there are more than a hundred of them, it will be troublesome. However, Dragon City can't be filled with war statues. There will only be many at the entrance of the main hall or in special places. So next … "
Yun Zhaochen glanced at the six of them and said, "We have two plans now. First, we will charge forward in a spurt of energy. There is no need to tangle with the war statues, and we will head straight for the Five Dragons Main Hall. However … we don't have a map. The blood mist is everywhere, and we can only see within a few miles. It will be easy to get lost. As for the second plan … Yun Fang, you tell us. "
The other five scholars looked at Fang Yun curiously.
Fang Yun coughed lightly and said, "Everyone knows that I know a little about ancient searching. Although we can't see the size and shape of the ruins of Dragon City and don't know where we are, I know a thing or two about the layout of Dragon City. I can deduce the general direction of the Five Dragons Main Hall based on the layout of the buildings. Right now, we can only see a few buildings. I need to walk a few more miles to be more confident. It would be even better if we can find a landmark. "
