Chapter 357: Confucianism and Taoism, Seal Carving, Painting

Five carriages were driving on the mountain road.

"Zhang Yuan, you have a pure heart and practice both Confucianism and martial arts. If you can enter one of the four major academies, you may achieve great things in the future."

In the carriage, Wang Zhixue looked at Zhang Yuan and spoke in a low voice.

"We teachers have decided that as long as you arrive in Yunhe County, we will do our best to recommend you for admission to Yunhe Academy." Li Wenyan paused, then said, "If it is impossible, remember to survive."

According to Li Wenyan, several teachers have used Confucian and Taoist methods to investigate and found that Guo Chang is not a lurking evil spirit.

Huang Ji was simply controlled by an evil spirit, and he wanted to get rid of Guo Chang by using deadly means.

But such methods are completely useless in the face of Confucianism and Taoism.

What they have to do now is to escort Guo Chang to Yunhe County City.

As they go further and more teams are intercepted or stopped, their team will become a famous brand.

At that time, there will definitely be more powerful demons to kill us.

What Li Wenyan said was that it was not possible to do so, which meant that if he really couldn't resist, he should let Zhang Yuan leave on his own and not die in vain.

Zhang Yuan nodded, without saying anything more, left the carriage and got off.

At the rear, there were four more carriages.

Zhang Yuan didn't expect that nearly twenty students would choose to stay because of him and protect the city all the way to Yunhe County.

According to Yang Baitao, since Brother Zhang is not afraid of death, what else should we be afraid of?
For a moment, most of the students who were originally nervous stayed and went to Yunhe County together.

Zhang Yuan boarded the carriage he was riding in, and Yang Baitao sat on it to drive the carriage.

Zhang Yuan sat next to Yang Baitao and took the horsewhip.

Yang Baitao grinned and said, "Don't feel burdened. We're not going to Yunhe County just for you."

"Everyone wants to take advantage of this opportunity to join the club without taking an exam."

Zhang Yuan nodded.

He knew that what Yang Baitao said was true, and these students were willing to escort Guo Chang not entirely because of him.

But he needs to remember this.

"Then you drive the car, I'll go sit in the carriage for a while." Yang Baitao stood up and chuckled, "I only now realize the gap between me and the real elites. Just now, when we were talking about the questions on the answer sheet, Guo Chang's few words made me suddenly enlightened."

He walked into the carriage with his back bent. Something occurred to him, and he turned around to look at Zhang Yuan and whispered, "Didn't you ask me if I've ever risked my life for something?"

"I want to give it a try."

Fighting hard?
Zhang Yuan drove the car, and a bit of his soul entered the painting of spring mountains.

He wrote down what he saw today, the rampant demons, and also recorded the bravery and righteousness of the students.

"Perhaps the Qin people are all brave and righteous in their bones, not afraid of life and death."

After closing the book, he saw a line of words left by Zuoqiu Ren, as well as a set of seal carving methods left for him.

Grand Ritual Vessel

The former Great Qin of the Nine Continents now only occupies Yongtian Continent, but most of its essence and heritage are still there.

The Confucian and Taoist seal carving method left by Zuo Qiuming is vigorous, ancient and simple. Each character is like a carved stone, and each stroke of the knife penetrates vertically and horizontally. It is the text engraved on various bronze ritual vessels in ancient times.

This kind of seal carving method emphasizes rich power and grand opening and closing.

Zhang Yuan felt a bead shatter in his mind, then he held the carving knife in his hand and began to cultivate his mind.

Feeling unsatisfied, he sat directly on the frame, holding the whip in one hand and waving the carving knife in the other.

In front of him, a faint sense of great power was gathering.

After more than half an hour, he opened his eyes, with a hint of joy in his eyes.

As he mastered the art of seal carving, Zhang Yuan mastered another Confucian and Taoist method. He also gained a clear understanding of how to use Confucian and Taoist methods.

The power of Haoran can be directly converted into the Golden Pearl of Heaven, and with the help of one's own spiritual power, one will definitely be a master of Confucianism and Taoism.

Of course, Zhang Yuan does not think of himself as a master of Confucianism or Taoism.

Confucianism and martial arts are different.

Confucianism and Taoism place more emphasis on state of mind and moral conduct.

Those Confucian and Taoist masters who cultivate themselves, cultivate their minds, and integrate knowledge and action can be called masters even if they have not reached the level of Confucian and Taoist masters.

On the other hand, even if one has the power of a master, but lacks the virtues of a master, he cannot be called a master of Confucianism or Taoism.

"Brother Zhang, go and rest for a while, I'll drive the car."

"If I can do more, I'll feel more at ease."

Behind him, Guo Chang's voice was a little hoarse.

Zhang Yuan stood up, handed the whip to Guo Chang, and then reached out to pat Guo Chang on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, we will survive to Yunhe County, and you will become a true Confucian elite."

After entering the carriage, Zhang Yuan sat down in his seat and closed his eyes slightly.

Guo Chang is not a lurker from the demon clan, but he has the power of a demon clan master.

There was a demon clan master who quietly used this power to track Guo Chang.

why?
Zhang Yuan did not eliminate this tracking force.

Because he wanted to figure out why a Grandmaster would focus his attention on the little Guo Chang.

You have to know that even in a place like Qingtianzhou, a grandmaster is a top-notch powerful person.

In the carriage, seeing Zhang Yuan closing his eyes, the discussion of Yang Baitao and the others gradually stopped.

……

After seven consecutive days of traveling three thousand miles, they had already reached the point five hundred miles outside the city of Yunhe County.

There were three ambush attempts along the way. The most dangerous one was when dozens of monsters rushed to the front of the carriage and even tore the horses pulling the carriage to pieces.

Zhang Yuan took action and killed five monsters in close combat. Later, with the arrival of reinforcements from instructors and Confucian and Taoist practitioners along the way, the monsters were repelled.

During these seven days, Zhang Yuan not only mastered the seal carving method for large ritual vessels, but also learned two other seal carving techniques.

One is the "Yuan Heng Stele Calligraphy" left by the eldest prince, and the other is the "Ink Rhythm and Seal Dragon" recorded by Yu Kuizhen.

When Zhang Yuan saw the seal carving techniques left by Yu Kuizhen, a hint of depth flashed in his eyes.

This kind of martial arts technique is simply not something Yu Kuizhen can access.

Then, there is only one possibility.

This was the reward given to him by the Emperor of Qin.

In other words, the Emperor of Qin already knew about the Spring Mountain Picture, and instead of stopping it, he gave it a reward.

Perhaps, the emperor also wanted to use Zhang Yuan to promote certain things.

For example, Qingtianzhou, for example, the inheritance of the throne...

"boom--"

Ahead, there was a loud explosion, and the leader's car frame collapsed.

A two-horned demon wolf covered in black scales spewed out gray-black demonic flames from its mouth and shattered the Confucian and Taoist barrier formed by several instructors with one foot.

This is a demon wolf in the late innate realm, with the power of its own innate bloodline. Its cultivation and combat power far exceed that of practitioners at the same level.

Zhang Yuan looked past the demon wolf and forward.

In the distance, dozens of immortal and demonic auras gathered together.

Further away, the majestic power of Confucianism and Taoism is rising.

Outside the city of Yunhe County, a battle between Confucianism and Taoism against demons, immortals and Buddhas is about to begin.

Watching the colliding of the immortal and demonic light and the mighty power, Zhang Yuan's mind moved, and he took out a blank scroll from the bookcase.

"Brother Ju Zheng, what are you doing?" Guo Chang turned his head, looked at Zhang Yuan, and spoke blankly.

Zhang Yuan held the ink pen in his hand and whispered softly.

"draw."
