The sudden sounds from outside the small courtyard caused both Ziling and Nan Feng's expressions to change instantly!

"This is bad! It's Elder Shi Tai's voice..."

Nan Feng spoke heavily, truly not expecting that they would even mobilize a Supreme Being to kill them!

If Senior Li wasn't here, they would probably just wait to die.

Ziling was also a little nervous, looking at Li Fan and saying, "Teacher... they've come to arrest us!"

Li Fan was also a bit puzzled, wondering why this group of enthusiasts was so vicious.

They talked about life and death so casually.

"It's fine, I'll reason with them."

But Li Fan remained quite calm and asked, "What do the people who came specialize in?"

Nan Feng replied, "Elder Shi Tai is proficient in calligraphy. Elder Tie Ming should be with him. Elder Tie Ming is proficient in music, and his instrument is a long flute!"

Upon hearing this, Li Fan smiled slightly.

Music? Calligraphy?

This was truly right up his alley.

"I understand, you two wait a moment."

He then entered the study.

He took out brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones from the study, and walked out holding a long flute.

He ground the ink and then picked up his brush.

The brush was ancient, its age unknown, and on the brush handle, the two ancient characters "Emperor Machine" were faintly visible.

The brushstrokes instantly fell onto the Xuan paper!

Silver hooks and iron strokes!

Beside him, Nan Feng and Ziling's expressions changed drastically!

They could clearly feel the Dao Rhyme surging throughout the entire courtyard at this moment. With that stroke, it was as if the Great Dao had been stirred!

"Why do I feel like what Teacher is holding is not a brush at all... but a peerless divine sword?"

Ziling was a little stunned.

"The Great Dao sang in harmony when he picked up the brush, what kind of realm is this?"

Nan Feng also murmured.

After a long while.

Li Fan finally put down his brush.

On the white Xuan paper, four characters had already appeared:

"Unique Leisurely Courtyard!"

Unique Leisurely Courtyard!

Each character was exquisitely done, not a single detail could be changed.

Li Fan said, "Ziling, take this calligraphy and have it framed and hung on the courtyard gate."

It had been so long, and he still hadn't named his small courtyard.

Now, he would use this name. It would also serve to make those vicious calligraphy enthusiasts outside retreat!

As long as they understood that Ziling and the other girl had found a renowned master, and that their calligraphy and music were superior to theirs, they would naturally leave, right?

Upon hearing this, Ziling hurried forward and picked up the calligraphy.

"Unique Leisurely Courtyard..."

She glanced at the piece of calligraphy and immediately felt as if she was about to be submerged by the Dao Rhyme within it!

She dared not look any further, quickly had the calligraphy framed, took a deep breath, and walked outside.

At this moment.

Outside the small courtyard.

Tie Ming, Shi Tai, and the others looked at the courtyard before them with surprise and uncertainty.

"Why do I feel like this small courtyard is a bit strange? Although it looks calm and extremely ordinary, it gives me a very dangerous feeling..."

Tie Ming spoke, his eyes filled with a hint of apprehension!

It was precisely because they sensed the extraordinary nature of this courtyard that they dared not barge in for the moment.

"Never mind that. What extraordinary things could there be in a mere mountain village? We are all Supreme Beings, invincible in the Profound Heaven Realm!"

Shi Tai was extremely confident, grasped the brush tucked into his waist, and prepared to step forward!

However, just then, the courtyard gate suddenly opened.

Ziling walked out from within.

Seeing her, everyone was startled.

"This unfilial disciple, she's really here!"

"She's practically asking for death, daring to show herself again!"

Ao Ming and Zhu Xin spoke with grim expressions.

"Heh heh, Ziling, you've finally come out. Where is Nan Feng? I heard you two actually dared to betray your sect and take someone else as your Master. Today, I, this seat, will uphold your Master's will and prune the unworthy!"

Shi Tai stepped forward, his voice grim.

A flicker of fear flashed in Ziling's large eyes, but she immediately said, "Nan Feng and I have already taken Senior Li as our Master. You are not allowed to be presumptuous!"

After speaking, she immediately revealed the framed calligraphy in her hand!

BOOM!

Instantly, Shi Tai's entire body trembled as if struck by lightning. He stared intently ahead.

"Unique Leisurely Courtyard..."

He murmured, those four words holding him captive.

He clearly felt a great terror!

Every stroke was a manifestation of the Great Dao.

Every line was the laying of rules.

Unique, signified the meaning of a Supreme Being, one of a kind!

Leisurely Courtyard, however, displayed utter freedom, transcending the mortal world!

What kind of spirit was this!

Was this written by an invincible being?

How was this possible...

As a powerful expert who used calligraphy to prove his path to the Supreme Being, Shi Tai could naturally feel the vast Great Dao, as mysterious as the universe!

He trembled, excited, and suddenly, his legs buckled with a thump, and he knelt on the ground.

This was the suppression of the invincible Way, the prostration of an ant before a dragon!

He saw countless Great Daos flowing, saw the birth and death of heavenly laws.

Blood began to stream from Shi Tai's eyes!

"No!"

Tie Ming instantly sensed something was wrong. He didn't cultivate calligraphy, so he wasn't subjected to the same terrifying pressure as Shi Tai.

He quickly grabbed Shi Tai's shoulder, pulling him up, and simultaneously covered Shi Tai's eyes!

"You can't look anymore, or you'll directly ascend to the heavens!"

Tie Ming warned anxiously!

He could clearly feel Shi Tai's cultivation fluctuating and dissipating, a sign of ascension.

But Shi Tai let out a mad laugh. He gesticulated wildly, crying and laughing as he danced, saying:

"Hahaha, I have seen the ultimate of calligraphy, I have seen the ultimate Great Dao of calligraphy... Hahaha, hahahaha..."

He suddenly turned and ran like a child, hopping and skipping along the way!

Seeing this, Tie Ming was shocked. He said in disbelief, "He... he's gone mad?!"

Mad!

Ao Ming and Zhu Xin's expressions changed drastically!

How could this be? A generation's Supreme Being, who entered the Dao through calligraphy, had gone mad like this?

Just from looking at four words written by someone else?

No one would believe this if it were told!

But now, it had happened in reality!

"Who... who wrote those four words??"

Ao Ming trembled slightly, a deep fear rising in his heart.

Tie Ming took a deep breath and looked ahead. Ziling had already hung the framed calligraphy on the courtyard gate.

Tie Ming didn't dare to look at the four words. Instead, he looked at Ziling and asked, "Ziling, behind you... what kind of existence is it?"

Even he was afraid.

How could he not be afraid of an existence whose calligraphy could drive a Supreme Being mad?

Ziling looked at Shi Tai's疯癫 (fēngdiān - mad/crazy) receding figure, a dazed look in her eyes. Was this what Senior Li meant by "reasoning" with people from the Sacred Land?

This was simply too terrifying!

Hearing the question from the Supreme Being Tie Ming, Ziling snapped back to attention. She gave him a complicated look and said, "You are not yet qualified to know!"

After speaking, she turned and entered the small courtyard.

"Stop! How can you leave..."

Tie Ming was anxious, he desperately wanted to know what terrifying existence was hidden within.

It could even drive a Supreme Being mad; he thought of too many things in that instant.

The Cangli Mountain Range had opened, and in such a strange mountain village, there was a terrifying existence hidden. The thought alone sent shivers down his spine.

But just as he took a step forward, a clear and melodious flute sound drifted from the courtyard!

This flute sound was like some irresistible force, causing Tie Ming's soul to tremble instantly. He stared blankly at the small courtyard!
