Chapter 339 Sea View Map

The sudden chaos startled many people, and their faces turned extremely flustered. The series of events caught them completely off guard.

Ye Ru and Guan Hai, carrying the wondrous spirits of heaven and earth, also faced the two statues.

"boom!"

The overwhelming barrage of weapons aimed at Ye Ru caused his expression to turn grave. He could sense that if these weapons pierced his body, he would surely die.

"boom!"

The next moment, Ye Ru held up the Three Perfections Writing Brush in one hand and the White Feather Fan in the other, blocking the other's weapons.

clang!

With a dull thud, Ye Ru stumbled back dozens of steps, then retreated to the side of the wondrous spirit of heaven and earth, and whispered:

"Stay put to the side and don't move. Leave this to me, understand?"

“Big brother, I have something to say. This statue is controlled by a mysterious force, and I think it must be related to the sacred pages you are looking for.”

The wondrous spirit of heaven and earth pondered for a moment, then spoke softly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Ru's eyes narrowed slightly. He quite believed in the words of the strange spirit of heaven and earth, after all, it was it that had brought up the strangeness of the statue.

"I understand. You wait here and don't move around. The other scholars won't touch you, so don't worry."

After a moment of contemplation, Ye Ru once again rammed into the statue.

At this moment, chaos reigned everywhere. The statues seemed to know who possessed greater talent, and thus unleashed the most ferocious power.

This terrifying offensive caused many people to complain bitterly. Even Han Fengxian was forced into a sorry state by these statues. If it weren't for his numerous literary treasures, he would probably have been killed by these statues long ago.

At this moment, everyone was focused on fighting the statues and dared not spare a moment. Although they had defeated the mountain beast together, it was only by pooling their strength. If their strength were dispersed, they would probably not even be able to match the Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations).

Moreover, these statues are painless, harmless, and insensitive, while the people are merely scholars with limited talent. Once their talent is exhausted, they will likely face an overwhelming onslaught.

"Everyone, join forces! If we don't, we'll all die!"

At that moment, a deep shout rang out, but before the words had even finished, a shrill scream echoed through the air.

"Oh no, there are several more of these statues now..."

At that moment, terrified cries rang out, and then in the distance, five more statues came to life, their skin peeling off one after another, and their eyes turning bloodshot.

boom!

Countless wind blades clashed with the weapons attacking Ye Ru. Ye Ru tapped his foot, and his inner energy rapidly condensed. His Three Absolute Literary Heart Brush also moved swiftly downwards.

"Ten statues? Could it be that the sacred page above that ball of light is fake, just a way to trigger the mechanism of these statues and wipe us all out?"

After pointing at the statue, Ye Ru flipped backward and looked around. Suddenly, a possibility occurred to him, and his pupils shrank to the size of pinholes.

"And the true sacred pages are hidden inside each of the statues?"

If the sacred pages are indeed inside every statue, that would be much more interesting.

"Try it first."

Ye Ru made up his mind and then said to Guan Hai:

"Brother Guanhai, please hold them off for a few minutes, I'll be right there."

"What do you want to do?"

Guan Hai and the statue clashed, and as his energy surged, he was forced to retreat backward.

"You'll find out soon enough, please."

After Ye Ru finished speaking, he stepped back, while Guan Hai stood in front of him:

"Okay, I'll help you."

With a solemn gaze, Guan Hai took out a jade slip.

The jade slip was entirely green, and a rich, sacred power emanated from it, spreading outwards.

"Go and view the sea map."

Guan Hai suddenly threw the jade slip into the sky. The jade slip slowly opened, and a sound like the waves of the sea resounded. Then, it was as if an ocean appeared in the sky, causing the temperature here to cool down rapidly.

The sea breeze brought a chilling sensation that sent shivers down one's spine.

"The Guanhai Map? Brother Guanhai truly lives up to his reputation as a student of Guanyu, the Half-Saint. He actually possesses such a treasure. If this kind of literary treasure were put on the market, it would probably fetch an astronomical price."

When Han Fengxian saw the painting of the sea, a burning desire flashed in his eyes, and he said softly.

"Brother Han, you flatter me. This sea-viewing map is far superior to your 'blindly oblivious' one."

Guan Hai shook his head, without the slightest arrogance. He had no choice but to use it.

This "Viewing the Sea" painting was created by Guan Yu on a reef in the sea. His skillful painting technique was considered the best at sea at the time.

However, this Sea Viewing Map is a defensive artifact; if used for attack, its power is greatly reduced.

The energy of Guan Hai Tu continued to gather in the sky, eventually forming an extremely powerful water-light shield. The shield carried a holy power and blocked Ye Ru and Guan Hai's path.

"I've already used this Sea View Map twice, and the energy within it is less than two or three tenths of what it used to be. I wonder if I can wait until Ye Ru finishes it."

A hint of worry flashed across Guan Hai's eyes. He looked behind him and saw Ye Ru engrossed in writing something, his talent radiating outwards.

"Hopefully."

He murmured something, took a deep breath, and his expression became extremely solemn. Then, he looked at the two statues, and the poem appeared on his brush.

"go with!"

The powerful verses, as Guan Hai wrote them, transformed into a dazzling pillar of light, which then slammed down upon the target in the next instant.

The statues seemed to sense something, and immediately swung their weapons rapidly, transforming them into countless weapons that shattered the pillar of light and collided with the sea-viewing map.

Although these statues lack sentience, they can sense that the two scholars before them are not to be underestimated.

boom!

The weapons touched the sea-viewing map, and in an instant, the map began to shake rapidly.

"Oh no, another one is coming..."

At that moment, Guan Hai glanced over and saw another statue appear beside him, also carrying the power of thunder, crashing into the Guan Hai painting.

With the combined power of the three Jinshi statues, the Guanhai Map began to sway precariously.

Although it was written by a semi-saint, its power was limited. Moreover, it had been used by Guan Hai many times and was already at its limit.

"boom!"

Three weapons, imbued with immense power, clashed together, striking the sea-gazing map. A powerful storm instantly swept outwards, followed by a crisp sound emanating from the map, causing Guan Hai's expression to darken.

"Damn it, the Sea Viewing Chart... is broken!"
