Shen Hao frowned.
The calligraphy and painting that Qian Haofeng carried with him seemed to have suddenly stopped working.
On the other hand, Li Yeyu's calligraphy and painting seemed to have been interfered with. It kept fluctuating and couldn't perform as usual.
That method of interference seemed to be the work of a Confucian cultivator and not someone from another cultivation path.
However, why did he feel that the person who did it wasn't very strong but had the effect of using four ounces to deal with a thousand pounds?
Shen Hao was shocked.
His cultivation was low, but he could still interfere with the calligraphy of a Confucian grandmaster. This required the other party's talent and knowledge to be far beyond his current cultivation.
He could even crush the owner of the calligraphy.
Such a person …
Slowly, Shen Hao turned around.
On the table behind him, there was a piece of white paper spread out.
The right third of the paper was blank.
On the left and in the middle, there were different women drawn.
Shen Hao's gaze was complicated, and there seemed to be a trace of fear in the depths of his eyes.
Although this emotion was fleeting, Shen Hao knew his own heart and noticed it immediately.
He didn't avoid his emotions and stood silently in place to think.
The scenes of the past flashed through his mind.
After Shen Hao calmed down, he immediately left the Nine Peaks Academy.
Before he left, he told the teachers and students on the mountain, "During this period of time, stay in the academy and study in seclusion. Don't go out easily. If you have any problems, report to me and the dean immediately."
The Nine Peaks Academy was currently competing with the Sacred Evolution Palace. Shen Hao's order made the other teachers and students think that he had to be wary of the Sacred Evolution Palace, so they all agreed and didn't dare to be careless.
After Shen Hao left the Mirror Lake Nine Peaks, his figure immediately disappeared in mid-air.
By the time he reappeared, he was already on the vast ocean.
There was no sword light on the surface of the ocean at this moment. Instead, there was a grand literary meeting.
However, the undercurrents were surging, and the danger was no less than a sword fight. It might even be more dangerous.
The ocean that was thousands of miles wide was not only calm at this moment, but it was also as smooth as a mirror, like the ground had been flattened.
On the "ground," there were also tall stands made of seawater that looked like real buildings.
There were many Confucian disciples gathered on the stands. Their literary talent soared into the sky and was extremely dazzling.
In addition, there were also people from outside the nine peaks and the Sacred Evolution Mansion who came to watch the ceremony.
Surrounded by the stands, it was not a drill ground, but a large hall formed by rising seawater. It was not frozen, but it was solid.
In the hall, two scholars sat opposite each other calmly, as if they were just having a conversation.
But above their heads, on the roof of the palace made of seawater, there were two masses of thick ink in the water. They seemed to be fighting and trying to devour each other.
Everything seemed to be pitch-black, but the people on the spectator stands could clearly tell who had the upper hand and who was at a disadvantage.
The poems recited by the two scholars sitting across from each other transformed into ink characters in the air. Then, they floated into the air and merged into their own ink.
After a long battle, the outcome of the battle was gradually decided.
After one person's ink completely devoured the other person's ink, it occupied the top of the hall and then automatically spread out, turning into many poems that hovered at the top of the hall.
At this moment, an elder on the grandstand said, "The Saint Evolution Mansion wins this round."
The faces of those from the Nine Peaks Academy darkened.
Old Dean Shen Tianxian had a calm expression as he sent out another student.
In the next round of battle, the students of the Nine Peaks Academy gradually gained the upper hand.
However, Shen Tianxian suddenly frowned.
The next moment, Shen Hao appeared beside him.
The surrounding students of the Nine Peaks Academy all bowed to the Peak Master of the Third Peak.
Shen Hao's arrival also attracted the attention of the people on the spectator stands.
"Father." Shen Hao looked solemn as he handed a letter to his father, Shen Tianxian. "Please have a look."
Shen Tianxian took the letter. Without opening it, he already knew the contents.
His frowning white eyebrows relaxed instead.
Seeing this, the others were slightly moved. They wondered if the Nine Peaks Academy had received any good news.
Seeing this, the people of the Sacred Evolution Mansion immediately ordered their disciples to investigate, in case the Nine Peaks Academy had any tricks against them.
Shen Tianxian looked relaxed, but in fact, his heart sank to the bottom.
He could clearly see a trace of fear in the depths of Shen Hao's eyes.
Shen Tianxian was not surprised by Shen Hao's emotions and words.
After all, that person's talent was so high that it shocked the world.
The foundation of the Shen family and even the Nine Peaks Academy was laid down by that person.
Now, everyone in the Nine Peaks Academy and even the Shen family, including Shen Hao and Shen Tianxian, learned most of their skills and techniques from that person.
Did that person really die back then?
For many years, the insiders of the Shen family had been secretly worried.
Those with poor mental fortitude were even more anxious and anxious.
Now, everyone did not have to guess anymore.
That person really came back.
"Inform Ming Jun and the others." Shen Tianxian sighed softly and then ordered Shen Hao.
His son hesitated slightly. "… Do we need to inform Ming Jun too?"
Shen Tianxian nodded. "Don't worry. Nothing will happen."
Shen Hao immediately replied, "Yes, Father."
After a slight pause, he continued to ask, "The Tai Qing Palace …"
"Don't be in a hurry." Shen Tianxian's tone was calm.
Shen Hao nodded and left.
Shen Tianxian acted as if nothing had happened and put his attention back to the cultural gathering in front of him.
Although the old Dean did not ask Shen Hao to inform the Tai Qing Palace.
The Tai Qing Palace did not forget them.
A white sparrow flew over thousands of rivers and mountains and came to the gate of the Tai Qing Palace.
The young Taoist priest in white raised his hand and gently touched the sparrow that landed.
The sparrow suddenly turned from white to purple and then into purple smoke, circling around the young Taoist priest's finger.
"Shen Hao left the Nine Peaks Academy and hurried to see Shen Tianxian …"
The young Taoist priest was deep in thought.
It seemed that they had found something in Chang 'an.
Maybe they were so nervous because they knew that Shen Herong was in Chang 'an?
The young Taoist priest strolled in the mountains with his hands behind his back.
He knew a lot more than the Nine Peaks Academy.
Shen Herong.
Ao Kong.
Chu Yaoguang.
These three people were all related to Chang 'an.
They might even be waiting outside the Tai Qing Palace, waiting for him.
The young Taoist priest did not care much about this.
What he cared about was whether there was anyone else in Chang 'an besides these three people.
The young Taoist priest thought as he walked to the foot of the mountain.
Here, he saw Perfected Yun Luo and Elder Tong Kai of the Azure Dragon Sect.
"Senior Brother, Brother Tong." The young Taoist priest bowed to them.
"You are Perfected Peng's last disciple, Gu Mu, right?"
Tong Kai returned the greeting. "Sorry, sorry."
"I'm flattered," the young Taoist priest said.
He turned around and handed something to Perfected Yun Luo. "Master asked me to give this to you. You may need it when you go to Chang 'an to find out the enemy's situation."
Perfected Yun Luo seemed to have thought of something when he heard this. His face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.
He nodded slowly. "It is indeed useful. I almost forgot about it if the Sect Master didn't mention it."
The young Taoist priest bowed. "Thank you, Senior Brother and Elder Tong."
Perfected Yun Luo and Tong Kai returned the greeting and said goodbye to the young Taoist priest. Then, they left the Tai Qing Palace.
The two of them walked together. Tong Kai glanced at Perfected Yun Luo and hesitated.
Perfected Yun Luo saw it but pretended not to notice.
So, the two of them continued to walk in silence.
As they walked, the two of them suddenly slowed down.
It was because they sensed that there seemed to be an extremely sharp and murderous Martial Will approaching them.
Perfected Yun Luo had already sensed it before, but they just passed by each other.
At this moment, the other party had the intention to rush over.
Perfected Yun Luo sensed the other party's Martial Will and couldn't help but be moved.
In just a few seconds, the void in front of the two Daoist Essence Soul Perfected Cultivators was broken.
It was as if it was broken by an invisible blade.
An ordinary-looking middle-aged man stepped out from it.
The man's facial features were unremarkable, but his Sword Will was so sharp that Tong Kai could faintly feel a stabbing pain in his Essence Soul.
"Chu Chaowen of the Southern Sect of Shu Mountain?"
Tong Kai recognized him.
The middle-aged man smiled, but his smile was sharp. "Perfected Tong of the Azure Dragon Sect, right? I'm Chu Chaowen. I'm indeed a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sect, but you don't have to mention the so-called 'Southern Sect'. "
Tong Kai suppressed his anger and didn't flare up at the other party's blunt words.
In the vast Central Plains, there were countless Martial Sects like the Dahe Longmen of the Eastern Border, the Green Cloud Villa, and the Barren Thunder Sect.
There were also many sects and clans that had Martial Emperors in charge.
But generally speaking, the Martial Experts of the Central Plains were still referred to as the "Three Sects and Six Dynasties".
The Six Dynasties were the Six Great Empires.
Ever since the Jade Emperor fell in the hands of the Twelve Kings of Hell, the Jade Empire collapsed and there was no longer a unified empire in the Central Plains. Instead, it fell into a state of competition.
Until now, the Six Dynasties were in a stalemate.
Apart from the Six Dynasties, there were also the Three Sects that stood at the pinnacle of Martial Dao Inheritance.
Among them, the Southern Sect of Shu Mountain and the Northern Sect of Shu Mountain occupied two spots.
The "Sword Demon" Su Po, who was ranked seventh among the Twelve Kings of Hell, challenged Shu Mountain and severely injured the Shu Mountain Sect Leader, Gu Pu, splitting the entire Shu Mountain into two.
This battle established Su Po's reputation as the best swordsman in the Central Plains, but it also caused the entire Shu Mountain Sect to split into the Northern and Southern Sects.
At that time, the Shu Mountain Sect was already in turmoil. After Sect Leader Gu Pu was severely injured by Su Po, it was difficult for him to suppress the opposition in the sect. In the end, the Shu Mountain Sect was split into two.
The Shu Mountain Sect Leader became the Sect Leader of the Northern Sect of Shu Mountain.
Internally, they still called themselves the Shu Mountain Sect.
And the Southern Sect, which split off, was seen as a traitor.
Of course, the Southern Sect also saw the Northern Sect in the same way.
Therefore, the Southern Sect Elder Chu Chaowen immediately corrected the Azure Dragon Sect Elder Tong Kai.
"I was rude." Tong Kai didn't want to be entangled with the other party.
Seeing that he apologized, Chu Chaowen didn't pursue the matter and turned to look at Perfected Yun Luo.
"It was rude of me to block your path, but I have something to ask. Please tell me, Perfected Yun Luo."
Slowly, the Southern Sect Elder said, "Please forgive me for being presumptuous, but you seem to have brought a sword with you?"
