The next morning.
Outside Zhang Heng's Sanwei Bookstore, there were already people waiting to buy a copy of Sword Snow Stride).

The next morning.
Outside Zhang Heng's Sanwei Bookstore, there were already people waiting to buy a copy of Celestial Bane.
" Fifty wen for a book," Zhang Heng said loudly as he opened the door." No bargaining."”
Crash!
The crowd swarmed into the bookstore, and it was so packed that not even a drop of water could pass through. Fortunately, Zhang Heng had some cultivation at the moment, so he was not squeezed into a meat pie.
After a long time, there were fewer people in the bookstore.
" Old Zhang, business is booming today. Congratulations…"
Cheng Chumo squeezed his way in and said to Zhang Heng, who was sweating profusely from work, with a bitter look on his face.
Cheng Chubi and Cheng Chuliang, these two bastards, made him take the blame for them again.
Forget it, he even wanted to drag Zhang Heng along. How could he put down his pride?
"Congratulations, congratulations. I earned a lot, so both of us have a share.”
Zhang Heng was all smiles. In less than two hours, nearly half of the 300 copies of Jade Dynasty's first volume and 600 copies of Jade Dynasty's second volume had been sold. The sales figures were quite impressive.
"Brother Zhang, I'm here to ask you for a favor…"
Cheng Chumo wanted to say something but stopped.
"What is it? Just say it. As long as I can do it, it's not a problem!”
" I want to invite you to go to Qingting Lake outside Chang 'an City with me. You don't have to worry about the bookstore. I've brought a servant here to help you look after it."”
"Qingting Lake? Where is that place?"
Zhang Heng asked curiously.
Although he did not have much knowledge of history, he vaguely knew where the lake outside Chang 'an City came from.
Seeing Zhang Heng's confused expression, Cheng Chumo finally remembered that he was an illiterate who didn't even know about saints. How could he know the meaning of Qingting Lake?
She quickly explained,
"The Hundred Schools of Thought have opened schools of thought in the Great Tang and taught the teachings of the Hundred Schools of Thought.”
" For the convenience of teaching, a Qingting Lake has been built with great supernatural power hundreds of miles away from Chang 'an. The small island in the center of the lake is where the schools of various schools are located.”
"Hundred Schools of Philosophy?"
A curious look flashed across Zhang Heng's eyes." Are Laozi, Mozi, Confucius, and the 'sons' of other schools in the Hundred Schools of Confucianism?”
"How is this possible…"
Cheng Chumo shook his head helplessly, lamenting that Zhang Heng was really imaginative and dared to think of anything.
The philosophers were all the incarnations of the mighty figures of the three worlds, preaching in the lower realm. How could they stay in a small school?
"In the Hundred Schools of Confucianism, each school is controlled by the family heads of the past generations. The philosophers have long disappeared and are not something we can see.”
Cheng Chumo shook his head slightly.
"I see."
" Since Brother Cheng has put it this way, I'll naturally accompany you to the Hundred Schools of Confucianism."”
Cheng Chumo was overjoyed.”
The two of them walked out of Chang 'an.
Qingting Lake was hundreds of miles away from Chang 'an City.
Cheng Chumo took out a talisman." This is the order of the Tang army. It can carry people. At most two people can fly at a time."”
"There is a no-fly array in Chang 'an. We can only rush there as soon as we reach Chang' an.”
The blood Qi that was like a blazing flame ignited in Cheng Chumo's hand, burning the talisman paper into ashes in an instant.
A large bird appeared, and the two of them quickly stood on it.
Cheng Chumo made a hand seal and a Blood Qi barrier covered them, making them feel as if they were walking on flat ground.
Then, the giant bird soared into the sky and disappeared into the sea of clouds.
"F * ck, it really flew into the sky!”
Zhang Heng was amazed. In his two lives, this was the first time he had ever been so high up in the sky other than by plane.
However, sitting in the plane, separated from the outside world by mechanical creations, how could it compare to now?
Two people and a bird were in the sky, surrounded by a boundless sea of clouds. He seemed to be in a paradise.
As a matter of fact, Zhang Heng, who was in the Material-controlling Realm, could already fly on a magic treasure. However, he had never tried it before, so he was surprised.
"Haha!"
Cheng Chumo laughed loudly and urged the big bird under his feet to fly towards the Qingting Lake.
Two hours passed.
Zhang Heng could vaguely see the outline of Qingting Lake and was shocked.
How was this a lake? It was like a vast ocean, even more vast than the ocean in his previous life.
There were countless islands in the lake, and every island was full of life and vegetation.
The most surprising thing was that such a huge Qingting Lake was actually in a calm state. The surface of the water was as calm as a mirror.
Arriving at the Qingting Lake, the two landed on the ground. Cheng Chumo dispersed the big bird formed by the talisman paper.
"Qingting Lake also has a Flight Prohibiting Formation. If you want to reach Lake Island, you have to swim or take a boat.”
Of course, they would not choose to swim over.
There was a boatman ferrying the boat by the lake. The two of them paid the money and boarded the boat.
What surprised Zhang Heng was that the boatman was just a mortal, but the boat was actually a spiritual artifact. It sailed fast on the lake, but it was extremely stable.
……
At the same time, on the small island in the middle of the lake, in the Confucian School.
Liu Qingfeng flipped to a page of Celestial Bane and pointed at the punctuations on it." Master, look at these symbols…"
" It's indeed an extremely useful creation. If the classics of the philosophers had these symbols, it would be much easier for us to understand and there wouldn't be so many misunderstandings…"
The middle-aged man whom Liu Qingfeng addressed as the family head sighed." The people can be made to do as they wish, but they cannot be made to know…"
"If the people can do it, let them do it; if they can't, let them know.”
" The same sentence, but with different ways of breaking it up, has two completely different meanings…"
"The person who created this symbol has great merit!”he asserted.
Liu Qingfeng was shocked. He hadn't expected that such a small symbol would be so highly regarded by the current patriarch of the scholarly faction.
After thinking for a moment, he said,"Patriarch, they should be arriving soon."”
"Prepare to welcome them."
"Yes…wait a minute. On the Lake Heart Island of my scholarly faction, there seems to be a formation that tests one's aptitude. Anyone who sets foot on the island for the first time will be tested. Patriarch, what do you mean?”
Liu Qingfeng asked tentatively.
"Let's not bother about him. We can take a good look at the person who created this symbol. If possible, take him into our scholarly faction!”
Among the Hundred Schools, the Confucians were the leaders, occupying the central island.
As the Hundred Schools of Philosophy were famous, people would come from time to time to join one of them.
However, the Hundred Schools of Confucianism did not accept just anyone, so they set up a formation to test one's aptitude on the lake island of the scholarly faction.
Only those with good aptitude would have the chance to enter the various schools and learn the classics of the philosophers.
……
"Old Zhang, the scholarly faction's Lake Island is in front of us. I once studied in the scholarly faction's school.”
Cheng Chumo pointed at the island in the middle of the lake and introduced it to Zhang Heng.
Rather than calling it an island, it was more like a small continent with a coastline that stretched for thousands of miles.。
