Chapter 2491: Niu Family's Law
2491 Niu Family's Law
The most unique forbidden place within the Confucian faction was the Holy Mountain of Myriad Books, a sacred mountain with its own consciousness. It had existed since the time when the Confucian Sage founded the Confucian faction.
However, prior to last year, while the Mountain of Myriad Books was indeed a forbidden place within the Confucian faction, it wasn't considered the most crucial one. During that period, no one knew what was concealed within the Mountain of Myriad Books, and even the mountain itself was ignorant of its own contents.
But last year, after Profound Sage Tyrannical Song arrived at the Confucian faction for filming purposes, Venerable Eternal Fire relocated the Mountain of Myriad Books to the world of the golden lotus and placed it under tight security. It became the focal point of the faction's restricted areas.
When Song Shuhang was in the world of the Golden Lotus, he was unable to employ his spatial jumping ability. He had to rely on Fairy Virtue and Fairy Creation to assist him in flight, which resulted in relatively slower travel.
Upon finally reaching the vicinity of the Mountain of Myriad Books, he discovered that the mountain had once again performed a somersault.
The massive Mountain of Myriad Books had flipped over, its two bandaged thin arms quivering as it propped itself up, with its hefty legs raised skyward.
From a distance, Song Shuhang could hear the Mountain of Myriad Books' thin arms straining under the weight, and it seemed as though its bandaged arms might snap once more.
However, Senior Eternal Fire was nowhere in sight.
"Hey there, Mountain of Myriad Books, we meet again," Song Shuhang waved at the Mountain of Myriad Books from a distance.
"I'm going to topple over, I'm going to fall~" the Mountain of Myriad Books wailed in discomfort.
Standing at a height of 600 to 700 meters, the Mountain of Myriad Books collapsing would be catastrophic. Fortunately, Venerable Eternal Fire had the foresight to place the Mountain of Myriad Books in a spacious area and left ample room for it to 'perform its somersault.'
"Fear not, I'm here!" Song Shuhang declared heroically. With his current strength, he could easily withstand the falling Mountain of Myriad Books!
But just as Song Shuhang's heroic spirit surged, he suddenly felt his legs give way... Both Fairy Creation and the virtuous lamia, who were beside him, simultaneously released their grasp.
The bold Profound Sage Tyrannical Song fell to the ground like a limp noodle and resembled a beleaguered damsel.
Pavilion Master Chu, who was observing, was rendered speechless.
On the other hand, Fairy Creation and the virtuous lamia swiftly moved into action.
Fairy Creation extended her hand and sketched in the air. Diminished versions of scholarly scriptures materialized in her palm and rapidly transformed into a ten-thousand-word essay.
Song Shuhang couldn't help but envy her ability to conjure ten thousand words with a mere gesture. The scholarly disposition and combat style had always been something he admired but couldn't attain. Furthermore, if the power to generate ten thousand words could be utilized for earning spirit stones, it would undoubtedly be an explosive endeavor.
The diminished Confucian texts expanded in mid-air and formed an extensive barrier spanning several hundred meters, blocking the area where the Mountain of Myriad Books was descending.
In this setting, Fairy Creation's abilities seemed to have been bolstered. She displayed greater combat proficiency than her usual state.
Boom!
The Mountain of Myriad Books descended onto the expanse of Scholarly Texts. The barrier exhibited remarkable elasticity and prevented the Mountain of Myriad Books from plummeting further.
Subsequently, the virtuous lamia clasped her hands together and her form ascended higher and higher.
In a matter of seconds, she reached a height equivalent to that of the Mountain of Myriad Books. Her lengthy tail stretched out, its tip forming a forked shape, which provided support for her body.
With determination, the virtuous lamia stepped forward, rolled up her sleeves, and then... she brandished the Virtuous Lightning Tree like a club and delivered a powerful strike to the Mountain of Myriad Books!
"Ugh! Ugh! Ah!" The Mountain of Myriad Books flipped back and emitted pained cries.
If one were to slow down the motion, it would reveal the intricacies of the Mountain of Myriad Books nearly collapsing under the blow.
Song Shuhang could only shake his head.
He had assumed that the virtuous lamia had expanded her size to aid the Mountain of Myriad Books, but he hadn't anticipated her resorting to such a violent approach. She hadn't shown her gentle side to the Mountain of Myriad Books.
After the blow, the Mountain of Myriad Books, which had been on the verge of toppling over, was instead forcibly returned to an upright position.
"The effectiveness of that strike is utterly baffling," Black-skinned Soft Feather commented. How should one strike the Mountain of Myriad Books with a cudgel, for it to be as effective as the virtuous lamia's blow?
"Newton is probably crying in the bathroom by now," Song Shuhang concurred.
"In the cultivation world, the strong do as they please. As long as you possess enough power, you can even reshape the laws of nature!" Sword's voice faintly resounded.
In the realm of cultivation, one could manipulate the natural laws as long as one had enough strength!
...
...
Boom!
The Mountain of Myriad Books was set aright, and its stout legs landed steadily on the ground. However, its bandaged thin arm had contorted into an awkward position once more, and it appeared to be in agony.
"Fellow Daoist Mountain of Myriad Books, your arm is twisted," Soft Feather reminded him.
"Ah, I know, little black girl," the Mountain of Myriad Books responded while gazing at its twisted arm with a regretful expression.
"Eh? Mountain of Myriad Books, didn't you want to perform a handstand yourself?" Song Shuhang inquired, baffled.
The Mountain of Myriad Books shook its twisted arm and retorted, "Do you think a mountain with bandaged arms would voluntarily attempt a handstand?"
In reality, ever since its arm had been fractured while attempting a handstand, the Mountain of Myriad Books had been traumatized by the idea of doing handstands.
"I don't believe ordinary mountains would consider performing a handstand, to begin with. More precisely, regular mountains lack arms," Song Shuhang clarified.
The Mountain of Myriad Books was rendered speechless.
This youngster had essentially labeled it as abnormal!
"By the way, have you seen Senior Eternal Fire and a young blonde girl around the Mountain of Myriad Books?" Song Shuhang inquired.
"The golden-haired girl, yes! I saw the golden-haired girl from a distance," the Mountain of Myriad Books replied through clenched teeth. "My body inexplicably became restless, and an unprecedented urge to display my
abilities surged within me when I spotted that golden-haired girl. Her presence affects my intelligence."
The golden-haired girl emitted an intelligence-reducing aura, undoubtedly.
"It appears that things are heading towards the worst possible scenario," Song Shuhang sighed.
From the golden-haired girl falling out of the Inner World, Senior Eternal Fire's inability to pinpoint her location, to her connection with the Mountain of Myriad Books, Song Shuhang felt an unsettling sense of foreboding.
"Is there something amiss with the girl's background?" Pavilion Master Chu inquired, perplexed.
"I'm uncertain... However, even if there is an issue with her, I have methods to counter it," Song Shuhang calmly pressed against his original dantian.
Among his seven minor dantians, one had been transformed from the core reactor of the golden-haired girl. Through this, a Ball Shuhang clone had been created.
In essence, the other party's 'nucleus' was in Song Shuhang's possession!
