Chapter 225 – Why didnt you run?



Chapter 225 – Why didn't you run?

"Didn't Senior Brother say that Dao Saint and Holy Buddha asked him to mediate the dispute between the new and old schools?"

Ye Luo felt like he couldn't catch his breath. "He didn't say that to mediate the dispute between the new and old schools, but to provoke another conflict..."

Bai Yuelou leaned in, whispering, "Junior Brother Ye..."

Ye Luo didn't back down, coldly sneering, "Call me Senior Brother!"

Bai Yuelou thought for a moment, realizing he couldn't beat him, and said, "Senior Brother Ye, I think the situation seems to be turning against us. Shouldn't we retreat?"

All the forums for the debate between the new and old schools were already in an uproar, with countless scholars indignant and rushing to the largest forum in the capital, Yuhuang Shangjingtu.

The dispute between the new and old schools had long since become bloodthirsty.

Both sides had casualties, and with the support of factions in the imperial court, the dispute was gradually spiraling out of control, with more and more bloodshed.

Looking at the enraged crowd, Ye Luo knew that these angry people were like tinder, and a spark could set them off.

If someone with ulterior motives instigated them, they might rush over and kill the three of them on the spot!

"Senior Brother has offended many people, and with the complex factions in the imperial court, someone will inevitably use public opinion to kill him!"

Both Ye Luo and Bai Yuelou had the same thought. Looking at the crowd, they heard countless people inciting and instigating, trying to make people lose their minds and rush to beat Su Yun and his companions to a pulp.

Just then, seventy-three heavenly realms appeared behind Su Yun, twisting space and drawing in the Qi of Heaven and Earth!

Su Yun's blood and Qi surged, forming a huge and fierce Taotie in mid-air.

This was a divine power formed by combining blood and Qi!

The Taotie roared and howled, and all the scholars in the debate between the new and old schools fell silent, remembering the scene of the Taotie fighting Dao Saint and Holy Buddha the day before.

The scene of the Taotie beating up the two great myths, and almost swallowing all the officials and civilians on the fifth level of the capital, was deeply imprinted in their minds!

"My magic power is unmatched!"

The Taotie divine power above Su Yun's head suddenly changed into an imprint, branded on his seventy-three heavenly realms.

"My physical body is like an immortal body, overwhelmingly dominant!"

His body suddenly changed, growing taller and stronger, even using the Transformation Art of the Honglu Furnace, growing from a human into a towering two-zhang tall Taotie demon god, fierce and scanning his gaze around.

In Yuhuang Shangjingtu, many scholars standing on the cloud bridge looked up at him. When his gaze swept over, they quickly avoided eye contact!

The many scholars outside who were rushing over, regardless of whether they were from the new or old school, turned pale at the sight and dared not come in.

Su Yun lifted a scholar from the cloud bridge with one hand. The scholar struggled and used various divine powers to attack Su Yun, but to no avail, and could only let out a desperate cry.

"I have many transformations and vast divine powers!"Su Yun threw the scholar away, and his body transformed from the form of the gluttonous beast back to his human form. Behind him, the seventy-two small worlds were all in the same space, connecting the fragments of the Seventh Spirit World, large and small!

These small worlds were shaped like large bells, with the internal walls branded with twenty-four gods and demons, of which the gluttonous beast was only one. The outer walls were branded with three hundred and sixty kinds of patterns, magnificent and vast!

"Bang——"

The seventy-two small worlds suddenly vibrated in unison, emitting a bell sound. Half of the Eastern Capital in the Jade Emperor's Imperial Palace was suddenly covered in dust and debris, and tall buildings collapsed in the sound of the bell!

The cloud bridges collapsed, and the people standing on them and on the buildings were in a state of panic, fleeing in all directions. Some people were pinned down by the collapsed buildings and could not move, crying out in pain.

"I simultaneously possess the magnificent and boundless power of the Old Sage's unique skills, and the supernatural powers of the new studies that penetrate the heavens and the earth!"

Su Yun transformed into his human form and walked through the ruins of the Eastern Capital, stepping on the severed limb of a scholar. The scholar screamed in pain and struggled to crawl forward, but could not move at all.

In the sky, the seventy-two small worlds were rotating like they were branded on the Jade Emperor's Imperial Palace, twisting the starry sky and painting the Jade Emperor's Imperial Palace with brilliant colors.

From the seventy-two small worlds, the gluttonous beasts fell one by one and landed in the ruins of the Eastern Capital in the picture. Dragon roars could be heard, and the dragons flew out one after another, their wings covering the sun as they flew to the Eastern Capital.

There were also large fish swimming out of the small worlds, shaking their heads and tails, making a deep and melodious sound as they flew in the sky.

All kinds of gods and demons flew out of the small worlds, descending upon the Eastern Capital.

The scholars around were inexplicably terrified, and some people couldn't bear the pressure and finally collapsed, crying and fleeing.

"I possess the state of mind of the Old Sage's unique skills and the spirit of excellence of the new studies!"

Su Yun's body trembled, and a true dragon swam out from his body, lifting the scholar who was trapped under the ruins.

The scholar was desperate, and he raised his hand to cover his face, his voice desperate, "Don't eat me——"

One true dragon after another swam out of Su Yun's body, going in all directions along the streets.

He himself was also changing, transforming into a blood-red true dragon, slowly walking in the ruined Eastern Capital.

Everywhere in the city, there were panicked and fleeing scholars.

When the dragon burial site was excavated, the scholar of the Heavenly Dao Academy obtained the "Sixteen Chapters of the True Dragon". Ying Ying was one of the three leaders of the scholars at that time. She awakened the sealed memories, and the contents of the "Sixteen Chapters of the True Dragon" also came to her.

Ying Ying taught the "Sixteen Chapters of the True Dragon" to Su Yun, who had made some progress in his cultivation during these days. However, the time he spent practicing and comprehending was still short, and he could only use it to scare people. Its actual power was not too strong.

The true dragon that Su Yun transformed into climbed up a ruined building, and soon climbed to the top of the tall building that he had shattered with his supernatural powers. He showed off his agile true dragon body on the rooftop, his voice loud and resounding, echoing throughout the sky.

"The old studies opened my wisdom, enlightened my mind, and the new studies strengthen my supernatural powers and physique! I will integrate the old and new studies, refine my immortal body, refine my immortal techniques, and cultivate my immortal methods!"Su Yun transformed into a true dragon and hooked his claws onto the eaves of the top palace of the building, looking down at the scattered people below and sneering, "You are foolish, killing each other for the sake of old and new teachings, not realizing that you need both to strengthen your body and mind!"

Ye Luo and Bai Yuelou stood in the distance, watching this scene in amazement. They had thought they were going to die, but in the blink of an eye, the ferocious crowd that wanted to tear them apart had turned into a group of panicked and crying people running away.

"Most people are just ordinary folks, even the scholars of the major academies. Faced with such a ferocious and demonic scene, they find it difficult to control their fear."

Suddenly, Ye Luo and Bai Yuelou heard Wu Tong's voice. They turned around and saw Wu Tong sitting on the back of a black dragon lazily lying on a cloud bridge.

Wu Tong calmly said, "They are not proficient in the old teachings and have not reached the pinnacle of the new teachings. Unfortunately, most of the scholars are just ordinary people. They just have a high opinion of themselves and are unaware of this fact."

"Wu Tong, you'll get yourself killed if you keep talking like that!" Ye Luo said.

"Call me Senior Sister!" Wu Tong said fiercely.

In the distance, many scholars stood on high ground, frowning as they looked at Su Yun.

Su Yun had just crushed almost everyone's spirit, but their hearts were still strong. These ten or so scholars practiced the old teachings and had a stable dao heart.

"Senior Sister Qingluo, he's right."

One of the scholars said to the descendant of the Shennong lineage, "This competition between the old and new teachings was originally about determining which was better. We, the old teachings, have lost many scholars. If we could..."

Before the female scholar of the Shennong lineage, Yu Qingluo, could speak, another person shouted, "Mu Zijun, are you also going to betray the teachings of the saint? The new teachings are barbaric and heretical, deviating from the orthodox path. Only the teachings of the saint are authentic!"

Yu Qingluo frowned slightly but did not speak.

Mu Zijun, the scholar who spoke earlier, stopped talking as well.

Another scholar, with a look of anger, looked at Su Yun in the distance and said coldly, "As for integrating the new teachings, it's even more demonic! Using barbaric heretical techniques to humiliate the teachings of the saint, this is even more hateful than the new teachings! This is the root of our saintly teachings being destroyed, he deserves to die a thousand times!"

He suddenly turned his head and looked towards Yuan Wujue, Prince Chengxiang Gongzi Wen Yanfeng, and others in the distance, sneering, "The teachings of the saint cannot be ruined by our generation! We must fight against the new teachings, especially people like Su who are even more disgusting!"

In the distance, Wen Yanfeng felt his gaze and frowned slightly.

Yuan Wujue said with a frown, "Su Scholar has come to stir up trouble, which is beyond my expectation. If he disrupts the debate this time, it will be difficult to force the palace..."

Wen Yanfeng's eyes flickered as he said lightly, "Those who were frightened by him were just a bunch of panicked people. Your Highness, if you want to rise, how can you rely on these people? Besides, if we defeat him, he won't be able to disrupt the debate, and the Emperor's reputation will be ruined! However, we must be wary of Qiu Yun Gao, who is a formidable figure in the old teachings and has a strong foundation!"

He had just said this when Su Yun transformed from his true dragon form into a human form and walked towards them.Wen Yanfeng smiled slightly and whispered, "Your Highness, Su Shizi couldn't hold back anymore. Luyun Nong, go and meet him!"

Luyun Nong was the son of the Prime Minister's historian. He was sent abroad to study since childhood and had acquired a set of skills. He immediately stepped forward and loudly introduced himself to Su Yun, "I am the son of Prime Minister's historian, Luguang Shuang..."

"Boom!"

Su Yun slapped him, Luyun Nong was shocked and angry, immediately mobilizing his skills and magic powers, shouting, "Good!"

A bell rang, and his magic power suddenly collapsed, crushed to pieces!

Su Yun covered his face with his palm, pressed it down, and Luyun Nong's head hit the ground, leaving a big pit.

Su Yun patted his hands, stepped over the big pit, shook his head and said, "They all ran away when they saw me. Why didn't you run? Are you brave?"

Luyun Nong fainted.

Su Yun walked towards Wen Yanfeng, Yuan Wuji and others, smiling, "And you guys, why didn't you run?"
