The spirit of the scholar's cap roared, "That's because you sealed it away! How could it possibly resist!"
The spirit was very anxious because it could use the momentum and positive energy from Li Chang'an's breakthrough to break out of the academy, but once Li Chang'an's breakthrough was over, it would be powerless to resist.
Zhao Shou looked at a stone box not far away, which remained quiet and seemed to be making no movement.
Inside that stone box was the sealed Confucian sage's carving knife!
The Confucian Sage's carving knife and the Confucian Sage's cap are two of the most precious treasures of Yunlu Academy, and are also the academy's most prized possessions.
Zhao Shou vaguely felt something was wrong, because the Confucian Sage Carving Knife was extremely aggressive and was a powerful weapon used to disrupt the law with Confucianism. In theory, it should be much more powerful than the Confucian Sage Crown.
Especially with the aftershocks of Li Chang'an's breakthrough, it's impossible for the Confucian Sage's Carving Knife to remain completely still...
"Keng! Keng! Keng!"
Suddenly, a sharp, screeching sound, like a sharp instrument drilling into stone, rang out and echoed repeatedly in the vast treasure hall.
The great Confucian scholars, including Zhao Shou, Zhang Shen, and Li Mubai, looked at each other in bewilderment, all of them having imagined a terrible outcome!
The Confucian sage's carving knife is drilling through the seal!
"Kick-kick-kick!"
Sure enough, a violent shattering sound erupted, and a black, ancient carving knife gleaming with a cold light pierced through the stone box and burst out into the air!
"Silent until the moment of truth, then a stunning revelation! Scholar Guan, you're far too restless!"
The spirit of the carving knife spoke calmly, like an old scholar full of knowledge, speaking with composure and nonchalance.
The Confucian scholars looked pale and wanted to seal the Confucian Sage's carving knife again, but they were too preoccupied with one thing to do.
If they divert their strength to deal with the carving knife, the scholar's cap will surely fly away. But if they hold onto the scholar's cap now, they can only watch the carving knife fly away.
"What are you doing? Quickly seal the Confucian Sage's carving knife!" the spirit of the Confucian crown roared angrily.
It was trying to get the great Confucian scholars to loosen their control over it so that it could break free from their confinement.
He truly regretted it. If he had bided his time and accumulated strength like the Confucian sage carving knife, and then suddenly launched an attack, these great Confucian scholars would have been unable to stop him at all.
However, it acted too early and was noticed by the great scholars of the academy, thus losing its advantage.
With a sharp cry, the Confucian sage's carving knife shattered the roof with a whoosh, and its powerful energy burst through the auspicious clouds in the sky, rushing towards the inner city!
"Hahaha! The sky is high enough for birds to fly, and the sea is wide enough for fish to leap. I'm off!"
The laughter of the carving knife spirit echoed throughout the academy, stirring the hearts of the students, who looked up in awe!
The great scholars of Yunlu Academy were heartbroken, but they knew there was no way to undo the damage.
Although the group had a good relationship with Li Chang'an, they were unwilling to give up their treasure for nothing.
However, now that the Confucian sage's carving knife has voluntarily recognized its master and left, they can only lament in vain.
Lingbao Temple.
Luo Yuheng released a wisp of his divine sense to ascend to the top of the pagoda. He was stunned to see two beams of light, one golden and one azure, simultaneously shooting into Li Chang'an's residence.
The divine sword in the palace, symbolizing the nation's destiny, and the Confucian treasures in the academy, yearning for great fortune, both flew towards Li Chang'an without prior agreement.
This further confirms her view that Li Chang'an has extraordinary luck!
From this perspective, perhaps dual cultivation with Li Chang'an is indeed a very feasible option.
No matter what, dual cultivation is still a matter between men and women. Although Luo Yuheng does not value romantic love, he still has some requirements for his dual cultivation partner.
In retrospect, Li Chang'an was dashing and charming, and many women were attracted to him.
Even Mu Nanzhi, the most beautiful woman in Da Feng, has a high opinion of Li Chang'an. Even without considering the suppression of the Calamity Fire, Li Chang'an is still an outstanding man.
"Look, even the national treasure sword and the Confucian sage's carving knife have flown over. What are you waiting for? Why don't you fly over with us?"
The orange cat lazily lay on the roof and noticed the look of surprise and uncertainty on Luo Yuheng's face, clearly indicating that he was making a decision.
"Opportunity knocks but once; if you miss it, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."
The orange cat wiped its face with saliva and casually complained about Luo Yuheng's hesitation and reserve.
"You're not still acting like those little girls, trying to be reserved, are you? There's no need for that. Don't you know your age..."
"Get lost!" Upon hearing the word "age," Luo Yuheng instantly erupted, unleashing a burst of sword energy that sent the orange cat flying off the seventh-floor pagoda.
They're getting more and more clueless as they get older. Talking about age all the time is just asking for trouble!
Fortunately, cats have nine lives. The orange cat Taoist priest was so shocked that it spun around in the air a few times before landing safely.
"Hiss... This cat's body is so amazing! It survived a fall from such a height!"
"Could it be that a cat's body is actually more suitable for cultivation than a human's?!"
Si Tianjian.
The white-haired supervisor, his aura surging, sat atop the Star Gazing Tower, gazing at Li Chang'an's residence from afar.
Yang Qianhuan was back to back with him, but she still saw the flight paths of the two divine objects.
"Li Chang'an... is indeed no ordinary person."
The supervisor chuckled, "Whether he's even human is still hard to say."
Yang Qianhuan asked, "How does this person compare to Master?"
The white-haired supervisor narrowed his eyes. "I can comprehend the universe, but he is above the universe. He is not as good as me now, but I cannot kill him."
Yang Qianhuan frowned, trying his best to pretend to be exchanging witty remarks with his master, but he ultimately failed because he really couldn't understand.
"If I'm not mistaken, this child has the countenance of an emperor. Could it be that he's destined to usurp the throne in some dynasty?"
The supervisor smiled; this was something anyone knowledgeable about celestial phenomena could see, so it wasn't surprising.
"Wrong. This imperial appearance is not a sign, but merely a manifestation of the current state."
"What!" Yang Qianhuan was shocked and almost turned around.
"Could he be the emperor of some neighboring country?!"
According to the supervisor, Li Chang'an is showing signs of becoming an emperor, because he is already an emperor.
The supervisor shook his head, because he couldn't understand it either.
Li Chang'an indeed possessed the countenance of an emperor, and a powerful ruler of a prosperous era, displaying an aura of fortune far surpassing that of the Great Feng.
However, there is no country in the entire land of Kyushu that is more prosperous than the Great Feng.
This aligns with his initial assessment that Li Chang'an might be from outer space.
Moreover, his status outside the heavens is much higher than that of his disciple Xu Qi'an.
"Master doesn't seem to consider Li Chang'an an enemy?"
The supervisor nodded slowly. “The Nine Provinces have their own way. The fact that he can cultivate Confucianism and Taoism and directly enter the third rank shows that he is not a tyrannical, capricious, and heartless person, no matter what method he uses.”
"If that's the case, he would be forced to cultivate Confucianism and Taoism, and he would be devoured by the Heavenly Dao. But right now, the Heavenly Dao is clearly not reacting at all."
Yang Qianhuan scoffed, "Old man, you're not the Heavenly Dao, how do you know it won't turn against him?"
The supervisor calmly replied, "You are not me, how do you know I am not the Way of Heaven?"
"Just making things mysterious," Yang Qianhuan said dismissively.
"Master! Master! His Majesty has arrived!" Disciple Song Qing rushed over to report the news of Emperor Yuanjing's visit.
"His Majesty looks flustered, as if he has been frightened!"
The supervisor looked down and saw a large number of figures at the entrance of the Imperial Observatory, indeed looking like important people were about to arrive.
Because of the supervisor's exceptionally high level of cultivation, Emperor Yuanjing was somewhat wary of him and therefore rarely visited him.
He was clearly intimidated by Li Chang'an's imposing manner.
“Tell the emperor that there is nothing wrong in the world; it is only the foolish who make trouble for themselves.”
Emperor Yuanjing, waiting at the entrance of the Imperial Observatory, felt extremely uneasy.
If he were to visit Luo Yuheng, he could swagger into Lingbao Temple, but at the Imperial Observatory, he could only wait.
As the ruler of a country, such treatment is not pleasant.
"Your Majesty, my master said that there is nothing inherently wrong in the world; it is only the foolish who trouble themselves."
Upon hearing Song Qing's message, Emperor Yuanjing's mind began to race. What did this mean?
The literal meaning is that what he wanted to ask was not a big deal at all, and the supervisor told him not to panic.
However, someone showed signs of imperial destiny, which made him anxious!
"Prepare the carriage! To Lingbao Temple!"
What he couldn't understand, or was unsure about, perhaps the Imperial Advisor could understand.
No matter what, this leader of the Human Sect still needs to rely on the nation's fortune to cultivate!
Subsequently, Emperor Yuanjing's imperial carriage hurriedly arrived at Lingbao Temple. The emperor stopped his carriage in front of the main hall and sent an eunuch to inform Luo Yuheng.
The Imperial Preceptor, seated in the Lingbao Temple, instantly withdrew his mental clone from the top of the tower and slowly opened his eyes.
Here we go again. That old man is so annoying.
Thinking of Li Chang'an, who was blessed with great fortune and was young and handsome, and comparing him with Emperor Yuanjing, who was always plotting against her, Luo Yuheng unconsciously felt disgusted.
