Chapter 178: Ancient Culture Scholar and Ancient Fan Nation (1)

After listening for a while, Lin Yan roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter.

It was related to the new ruins of Fengyang City. It was said that the ruins were also the ruins of a Buddhist temple. It belonged to an ancient civilization that had already perished, called Fan Nation.

Although almost the entire Azure Dragon Hall of the Demon Suppression Division had fallen, at the same time, it discovered that there were a large number of precious Unusual Items!

Force Feature required Unusual Items, especially Black Grade and Jade Grade. The Unusual Items required were extremely precious and could be said to be natural treasures. They were extremely rare in the entire Qian Continent.

However, Unusual Items could be seen everywhere in that ruin. There was no lack of priceless high-grade Unusual Items!

Therefore, the various factions joined forces and had already sent people to seal the ruin. They sent people in to explore and plunder. It was said that the first batch of harvest had already been transported back to the prefecture capital.

The reason why the Dingdeng Genius Battle was held in Dingan City was because the ruins outside Dingan City were also related to the Ancient Fan Nation. The higher-ups in the prefecture capital believed that there might be a large number of precious Unusual Items!

That was why the Dingdeng Genius Battle was set at Dingan City. It was to explore the ruins first and see if it was as profitable as the ruins near Fengyang City.

Liu Lanqing sneered. 1 finally understand. What do you mean by arrogant and despotic? To put it bluntly, arent you worried that our Demon Suppression Division will monopolize the Unusual Items in the ruins?

Hehe, exploring ruins and eliminating threats is the duty and power of our Demon Suppression Division!

When we were risking our lives, why didnt they jump out?

When there are benefits, they swarm up and kick us out?

Bai Ling waved his hand and explained, They just dont want you to be the City Lord. Theyre afraid that youll be arbitrary and affect fairness.

We can still get a large piece of the benefits cake of the ruins.

Besides, you know Hou Zuns personality. He wont let you suffer!

This box of precious Unusual Items and manuals is Hou Zuns compensation for you. As long as you use it well, Vermillion Bird Hall will be built very quickly. Isnt it more comfortable than being a lousy city lord?

Liu Lanqing snorted. She naturally knew that the Demon Suppression Division could not go against the interests of the entire Qianyuan Prefecture. Hou Zun did not treat her unfairly from the perspective of the interests of the entire Demon Suppression Division.

Except

She pointed at Ling Shuangxue. Why must she replace me? Doesnt Hou Zun know about the grudge between us?

Ling Shuangxue smiled faintly. I didnt want to come either. It was Master Hou who personally invited me and said that you were rash and made a mistake.

Only I could make up for it. I was worried, so I had no choice but to come.

Flames and frost rose again.

Teacher Ling, stop provoking All Qing! Bai Ling hurriedly pressed down hard. The force was like an iron wall that stood in the middle of the two of them, making Lin Yan tremble. This force was incomparably solid and heavy, and the pressure was extremely heavy. It was terrifyingly strong!

However, Issuer Liu was usually quite calm. Why did she become a powder keg that would explode at the slightest touch in front of Ling Shuangxue?

Bai Ling explained, Qianyuan Academys status is aloof and neutral. Teacher Ling is a famous ancient scholar of Qianyuan Academy. She knows all kinds of ancient books very well. The ruins this time involve the Ancient Fan Nation. If she comes, it will definitely speed up our exploration of the ruins.

Ling Shuangxue said indifferently, Venerable Issuer Bai, you flatter me. My goal here is mainly to host this Dingdeng Genius Battle. As for the ruins, its just a small hobby. Its just icing on the cake.

Bai Ling stopped Liu Lanqing and revealed a helpless smile.

Although Ling Shuangxue and Liu Lanqing were like fire and water, the grudges between the two of them were entangled. They were like sisters and enemies.

This was also the reason why Hou Zun invited Ling Shuangxue here. He felt that if there was really an accident, Ling Shuangxue would stand on Liu Lanqings side, which was the Demon Suppression Divisions side.

Liu Lanqing still wanted to say something, but Bai Ling hurriedly interrupted her. Teacher Ling, lets get to the point quickly. Lets talk about the background of the Ancient Fan Nation first.

Lin Yan immediately p.r.i.c.ked up his ears. The ruins deep in the crack were greatly related to Xiaozhis illness, so he was naturally extremely concerned.

In that case, let me explain briefly Ah Qing, you shouldnt be interested in literature and history, right? Why dont

Teacher Ling, please dont keep us in suspense! Bai Ling quickly interrupted her and urged Ling Shuangxue.

Ling Shuangxue revealed a look of regret. She straightened her expression and began to speak.

Its said that the Ancient Fan Nation was from about 400 years ago.

However, because of the well-known Great Extinction, most of the historical records have been lost.

I can only conclude from the few records left.

Its said that the Ancient Fan Nation believed in Buddhism. They believe that death is not death, but the beginning of a new life.

They believed that there were Buddhas in the world. They believed that Buddhas had a pair of supreme eyes that could illuminate their previous lives and see through the mortal world.

Therefore, they also wors.h.i.+ped the eyes and believe in the power of the eyes. They treat the eyes as totems.

In their buildings, there would always be strange Buddha statues with extremely large eyes. They were the images of Buddhas in their imagination.

Therefore, the most n.o.ble temple in the Ancient Fan Nation is called the Heavenly Eye Temple!

Lin Yan recalled the large-eyed Buddha statues on the roof of the palace that was embedded in the cliff back then, as well as what Elder Xu had told him. Heavenly Eye Temple, Monk Guan Shan..
