"It's Arch-Emperor Mammoth!"
Fang Yun's heart sank. This Arch-Emperor Mammoth was very young, and was the son of Sage Mammoth. His mother had given birth to nine mammoths, but he was the only one alive. The other demon-barbarians suspected that he had absorbed the power of his other eight siblings when he was still in his mother's womb. That was why he had been given the name Arch-Emperor.
Of the other mammoths of his age, the most outstanding was an ordinary demon king. And yet, he had become an emperor two years ago. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been an emperor for many years, but because of his shocking talent, he wasn't considered a new emperor.
Arch-Emperor Mammoth's most famous battle prowess was that he had once fought a bloodmammoth from the Demonfolk to a standstill. Because of that, he was very famous.
Fang Yun rushed there at full speed, and the Great Confucian Scholar activated his powerful deduction ability, consuming his Holy Qi and the power of decay. He was able to determine the identities of the four Great Confucians in the Treasure Pavilion based on their auras. Three of them were He Mingyuan, the Great Confucian Scholar of the Shi Clan of the Fifth State, Yun Yangzhao, the Great Confucian Scholar of the Fourth State, and Tian Songshi, the Great Confucian Scholar of the Fourth State, who he had not seen in the Saint Burial Valley.
The first three were Fang Yun's sworn friends. As for the fourth, Fang Yun frowned. It was none other than Nie Shoude.
Not long ago, Nie Shoude had been blackmailed by Lang Yuan Of Gojoseon into betraying Fang Yun. Were it not for the fact that Fang Yun had become a grand confucian, Nie Shoude would have been killed.
The four of them were using the Four Seas of Heaven and Earth, which caused the entire corridor to ripple with watery light. Furthermore, the Four Seas of Heaven and Earth were being used to block Arch-Emperor Mammoth's advance.
Fang Yun could tell that Arch-Emperor Mammoth wasn't using all of his power. Obviously, he didn't think these four people were worthy of him going all out. In fact, he wasn't even using the power of his ancestral spirit.
Arch-Emperor Mammoth was using only thirty percent of his power to suppress four grand confucians. How powerful was that?!
In that moment, Fang Yun instinctively decided that he couldn't let things drag on. He had to get rid of Arch-Emperor Mammoth as quickly as possible. It didn't matter if he killed him or injured him; if he didn't, he would end up dead.
After all, Arch-Emperor Mammoth was strong enough to crush a new emperor!
Fang Yun took a deep breath and suppressed his anger towards Nie Shoude. Then, he sent a secret message to Nie Shoude in a way that only human Confucians could understand.
"Mr. Mingyuan, take this opportunity to transform the Four Seas Under Heaven into the Five Peaks Under Heaven. Then, find an opportunity to give the main peak, Mount Tai, to me."
He Mingyuan immediately sent a telepathic message, "Leave immediately. Even with your help, we might not be a match for him!"
Fang Yun ignored him and continued to charge forward.
Meanwhile, Arch-Emperor Mammoth sensed someone approaching, and turned to look at Fang Yun.
As soon as Arch-Emperor Mammoth saw Fang Yun, his eyes glittered with excitement. "The blessing of the Ancestor God! Fang Yun, if you commit suicide in front of this Emperor, this Emperor will spare these four pieces of trash! But if you try to escape, I'll cut them into a thousand pieces, and then spread the word throughout the myriad worlds that you're a coward who abandoned your friends. "
Arch-Emperor Mammoth's distraction was the perfect opportunity to strike. He Mingyuan had no choice but to transform the Four Seas Under Heaven into the Five Peaks Under Heaven. He Mingyuan took the main position on Mount Tai, and at the same time, the translucent image of Mount Heng appeared beneath Fang Yun's feet. Instantly, an aura of majesty and grandeur appeared around Fang Yun.
Surprisingly, Arch-Emperor Mammoth didn't attack immediately. He Mingyuan immediately switched to the main position on Mount Heng, and the image of Mount Heng beneath Fang Yun became Mount Tai.
Fang Yun's aura suddenly changed, becoming more profound and ancient. At the same time, he seemed to have the aura of the Son of Heaven, and the majesty of an emperor.
The five peaks were good at defense, but not good at offense. They moved very slowly, but Fang Yun gave up on using Mount Tai to propel him forward.
The five peaks under heaven were far more powerful than the Four Seas Under Heaven, and that gave He Mingyuan and the others a chance to catch their breath.
"What, you want to fight me? Fine, I'll oblige! "
Arch-Emperor Mammoth was no fool. He immediately changed positions, placing himself between Fang Yun and the four confucians. If the five of them joined forces, the five peaks under heaven would be even more powerful.
Chuckling disdainfully, Arch-Emperor Mammoth summoned the spirit skeleton of an emperor, as well as four spirit skeletons of the fifth level. Then, he charged toward Fang Yun.
As he got closer, Fang Yun could sense that the four confucians had a total of ten spirit skeletons. That was why they had been able to hold their own. But without the spirit skeleton of an emperor, they could only fight to a standstill with Arch-Emperor Mammoth's six spirit skeletons.
"Fang Xusheng, hurry up and leave," He Mingyuan said. "We can't break through those spirit skeletons, so we can't help you." Again, he tried to persuade Fang Yun to leave.
"Don't let your emotions affect your decisions, Fang Yun," Tian Songshi said. "This is the famous Arch-Emperor Mammoth from the Demon World. You've probably heard of him, and he definitely has other trump cards up his sleeve. We're no match for him!"
"That's right," Yun Yangzhao said. "Fang Xusheng, we've already decided that if we find the right opportunity, we'll take turns sacrificing our lifespan to help the others escape. Even if it's just one person, it'll be good."
Although Nie Shoude's tone of voice seemed normal, Fang Yun could sense the unease, guilt, and fear in his voice. "Fang Xusheng, why don't you leave for now?"
"Bensei won't leave!" Fang Yun said with decisiveness that could sever nails and chop iron.
"But he'll definitely target you," He Mingyuan said. "What if …."
"Life and death are predestined. A demon-barbarian won't be able to kill Bensei!"
With that, Fang Yun waved his Confucian Treasured Quill, causing it to become tangible. Instantly, the famous Confucian poem, "Crossing the Jing Gate to Send You Off."
"Crossing the Jing Gate to travel from the State of Chu."
"The mountains follow the plains, and the rivers flow into the Great Wilds."
"Flying Mirror under the Moon, Cloud-Bound Sea-Tower."
"Still pity the waters of Shu, Sending You Off for Ten Thousand Miles!"
A mighty Yangtze River flooded the long corridor like a clear sky. Fang Yun rushed towards the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion with all his might.
As soon as the river appeared, Arch-Emperor Mammoth's expression flickered with disdain. Inhaling deeply, he attempted to unleash the power of megamammoths to suck up all the water in the area, then spit it out, giving Yang Qi a taste of his own medicine.
The Yangtze River began to pour into his trunk.
One breath of time. Two breaths of time. Three breaths of time ….
The Yangtze River didn't change at all, and continued to fill the corridor.
This was no ordinary Yangtze River. This was a majestic Yangtze River that connected the ocean to the Great Wilds!
Fang Yun was the ruler of the Yangtze River!
"Cough, cough …."
Arch-Emperor Mammoth could never have guessed that the Yangtze River would be so endless. Coughing violently, he spat out all the water he had just inhaled. Then, he angrily swung his trunk, causing holy energy to surge out, causing it to grow to a height of more than three hundred meters. Then, he unleashed his sage idol attack, which slammed into the Yangtze River.
RUMBLE!
The Yangtze River shattered, and the real and the illusory returned to their original state.
However, the moonlight flickered, and a new Yangtze River took shape.
Arch-Emperor Mammoth was enraged. Never could he have imagined that he would be so humiliated after being choked by the Yangtze River. Now, he had to unleash his sage idol attack again.
The Yangtze River shattered, and an ancient city appeared in its place, a mirage that prevented Arch-Emperor Mammoth from seeing what was happening outside.
Enraged, Arch-Emperor Mammoth threw caution to the wind and unleashed his sage idol attack again.
The mirage shattered, but the moonlight flickered, and a new mirage appeared.
"You …."
Arch-Emperor Mammoth blurted out some of the harshest insults in the Demon World, and then unleashed his sage idol attack again to destroy the new mirage.
When the poem collapsed, Arch-Emperor Mammoth realized that Fang Yun had already bypassed him and was in front of the Treasure Pavilion, where the six spirit skeletons were blocking his path.
Arch-Emperor Mammoth was stamping with rage, and instinctively wanted to unleash his most powerful godly idol attack. But then he realized that he wouldn't necessarily be able to kill Fang Yun with a single blow, and would likely end up destroying the six spirit skeletons. Suppressing his rage, he turned and began to chase after Fang Yun, hoping that the six spirit skeletons would be able to hold him off for a bit longer.
