Chapter 104 Taoyuan Village
Meng Bai said coldly: "If you want to kill me, then let me see if you have the ability to do so."
Situ Ye sneered: "How shameless of a mere Hanlin to speak so arrogantly!"
Situ Ye took action brazenly.
Even though the demon king in this world does not have a domain, the power of a sixth-level demon king is still terrifying.
No ordinary Hanlin can defeat him with one blow.
Meng Bai held the Haoran Gentleman Sword in his hand, and countless Haoran auras surged towards the Haoran Gentleman Sword.
Situ Ye sneered in his heart: You think you can stop me with a third-grade Confucian treasure? How naive!
The third-grade Confucian treasure is indeed powerful. If it falls into the hands of a university scholar, he will undoubtedly be defeated. However, in the hands of a Hanlin, its power is limited. As long as the Confucianism in the Confucian treasure cannot be activated, there is no need to be afraid of it.
As Meng Bai continuously sent the righteous energy into the Haoran Gentleman Sword, the Haoran Gentleman Sword began to glow slightly, and two lines of poetry appeared on the Haoran Gentleman Sword.
After poetry is accepted as an art, it will give rise to Confucianism, and after inscriptions are made on Confucian treasures, Confucianism will be engraved on the Confucian treasures.
If it were an ordinary third-grade Confucian treasure, a Hanlin scholar would not be able to activate the Confucianism in it. However, the Haoran Gentleman Sword was inscribed by Meng Bai himself, and it was Meng Bai's natal Confucian treasure. Even if Meng Bai was only a Hanlin scholar, he could still activate it.
Meng Bai spoke calmly: "The sword energy spans thirty thousand miles, and the sword light chills the nineteen continents. Go!"
In an instant, an incomparable sword energy was slashed out.
Situ Ye's expression changed drastically.
Third-level Confucianism!
Even though Meng Bai was only a Hanlin and could not bring out the true power of the third-grade Confucianism, Situ Ye had already smelled the breath of death!
will die!
Situ Ye turned around and ran away!
However, this mighty sword energy was so powerful that it would be useless even if Situ Ye increased his speed to the extreme in a single breath and escaped ten miles away.
With one sword, the sword energy spread across thousands of miles, and the sword intent shocked the entire battlefield.
A sword mark thousands of miles long was left on the battlefield, and Situ Ye and hundreds of thousands of monsters were killed by Meng Bai's sword.
Over the battlefield,
Zhong Wen and Situ Laoyao, who were fighting each other, also sensed the terrifying and mighty sword energy.
Zhong Wen no longer had the anxiety he had just felt. He laughed and said, "Third-rank Confucianism! Good! Good! Good!"
But the old demon Situ no longer had the leisurely mood he had just now, his face became terribly gloomy!
The third-grade Confucian technique just now was extremely terrifying. Even though he had been in the Demon King's realm for many years, he could still feel the danger of life and death from the mighty sword energy.
Situ Ye's evil spirit had disappeared, and his death was inevitable.
At this moment, Old Demon Situ's heart was bleeding!
This is the second demon king that has appeared in Situ’s sect in hundreds of years!
He was killed by a Confucian scholar from the Imperial Academy with just one sword. Where is justice!
After exchanging blows with Zhong Wen, Situ Laoyao quickly retreated and said with a gloomy face, "Very good, I, Situ, will remember this vengeance of Old Man Zhong."
The old demon Situ didn't dare to get entangled with Zhong Wen anymore and led the demon tribe away, for fear that Meng Bai and others on the battlefield would suddenly attack him with a sword.
In fact, Old Demon Situ was worrying too much. Although Meng Bai could use the Haoran Gentleman Sword to activate the third-grade Confucian arts, just one activation would almost exhaust Meng Bai's Haoran energy.
Meng Bai's face turned pale as he sighed, "It is indeed a third-grade Confucian art. Its power is even greater than my innate magical power in reality. Even a Yuanying cultivator would not be able to handle this move so easily."
"It's a pity that my cultivation is limited and I can't bring out the maximum power of this move. If I had the cultivation of a great scholar, perhaps I could really make the sword energy span 30,000 miles!"
As the old demon Situ led the demon clan to retreat, the Baiyan Dynasty won a temporary victory on the battlefield of Xuanwu City.
Xuanwu City, inside the City Lord’s Mansion.
Zhong Wen smiled at Meng Bai and said, "I've heard that you created a third-grade poem when you wrote the inscription for the Confucian Treasure. The whole world was shocked and you were praised as the person with the greatest hope of becoming the next great Confucian scholar. I didn't expect that I still underestimated you. Now you can actually activate the Confucian arts in the third-grade Confucian Treasure."
There has never been a Hanlin scholar who wrote a third-grade poem in ancient and modern times. Meng Bai can be said to be the best of all time!
Before Meng Bai defeated Situ Ye, even Zhong Wen did not expect that Meng Bai could slash out such a shocking sword!
Because in the history of the Baiyan Dynasty, no Confucian scholar in the Imperial Academy had ever used the third-grade Confucianism!
The lowest standard used by the three-rank Confucian scholars has always been Grand Secretary.
Now this iron rule has been broken by Meng Bai!
Meng Bai said calmly: "Senior Zhong, you are too kind."
"No matter what, thank you for your support this time. Otherwise, if two demon kings attacked the city, my old bones might not be able to hold out."
"Oh, by the way, Situ's demon tribe has been severely damaged by you. The battlefield in Xuanwu City has been stabilized for the time being. What are your plans next?"
Meng Bai pondered for a moment and said, "Xuanwu City is only one of the border cities that the demons have invaded our Baiyan Dynasty. There are many other border cities that are fighting hard with the demons. I plan to go to the other border cities after my Haoran Qi is restored."
Zhong Wen nodded after hearing this.
"I have to stay in Xuanwu City and cannot leave with you. I can only wish you good luck in Confucianism."
......
Seven days later, Meng Bai left Xuanwu City and prepared to go to another border city, Wuyue City.
On the way, Meng Bai discovered that many villages along the road had been abandoned, and the people living in the villages had moved into nearby cities.
One day, Meng Bai passed by a village again and was surprised to find that there were still villagers living in the village.
After Meng Bai walked into the village, he found that the villagers were still farming and living their lives as usual, as if they didn't care at all about the attack of the demon tribe.
You must know that these small villages are the first to suffer when the demons attack.
Although the village does not have much strategic value, if the villagers do not leave, they will be used as food by the demons.
Meng Bai came to the field and asked a farmer who was plowing the land.
"Brother, may I ask which village this is?"
The farmer stopped his farm work and looked at Meng Bai in surprise and said, "You don't seem to be from Taoyuan Village?"
"I am Meng Bai, a scholar from Kaiyuan Academy."
The farmer smiled and said, "So you are a scholar. Brother Meng can call me Wang Er."
"Brother Wang Er, now that the demon tribe and the dynasty are at war, the villages on the border are no longer safe places. Why don't the people in your village move into the city?"
After hearing this, Wang Er said, "The village chief said that our Taoyuan Village is protected by our ancestors, and the demon tribe cannot attack us."
Meng Bai raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: Ancestors' protection? Is this still popular in this world?
"Brother Wang Er, is the village chief of your village here?" Meng Bai asked.
Wang Er pointed to the innermost room and said, "That room is where our village chief lives."
After leaving the field, Meng Bai came to the house that Wang Er pointed to.
"Excuse me, is the head of Taoyuan Village here?"
"Come in! Outsider!"
A cold voice came from inside the door.
When Meng Bai opened the door, he saw an old man with pale hair and a hunched body.
Although the old man looked very old, Meng Bai could feel an extremely terrifying aura of righteousness from him!
