White Jade Paperweight Seizes Literary Thought

"Did they steal your Literary Thought? Strip you of your Literary Heart? Steal your talent!"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Yan found it somewhat difficult to understand, but thinking back on his experiences, especially how a general immediately led his men to his door to arrest him as soon as he revealed his name, he suddenly realized what was going on.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At the same time, the ground of the main hall shook violently, and thin wooden logs burst out of the ground, containing gold, intertwined and climbed, forming a cage inside the room, even dispersing some of the yang Qi and Blood, and surrounding Qiu Yan inside!

From a distance, it looks like a giant birdcage.

Through the sensing of Qi, Qiu Yan experienced a sense of illusion and etherealness within the suddenly formed cage.

"This cage! It's not a physical object! It's... the Earthly Soul Divine Ability!"

When a cultivator condenses their Divine Soul and the Three Souls Unity, the Original Edition Earthly Soul evolves into the foundation of Divine Ability. Just like Qiu Yan's Three Souls Half-Step Fusion, the Earthly Soul Bookshelf can still be used.

"Cage Confinement!"

The Divine Soul in mid-air shouted out a word, and the light and shadow on the cage changed. The scattered Crow exploded and turned into feathers, swooping down on Qiu Yan in dense rain. Qiu Yan's nose was immediately filled with a putrid smell.

Crow prefer to eat carrion.

He felt the skin on his body soften and peel off. His entire body was frozen by the fluctuations emanating from the birdcage, and even his soul inside sluggished and moved slowly!

The soul is bound, the spirit paralyzed!

"Oh? This person's Divine Ability seem to lean towards corruption. With such limited skills, how could he possibly steal someone else's talent?"

As Qiu Yan was thinking, the window by the room suddenly burst open with a "bang," and a White Jade Paperweight flew in. It was pure white, but this object used to hold down the paper was imbued with a rich Literary Thought.

"Hmm? What is this thing?" Qiu Yan's eyes widened, his soul power swirled, and he activated the Spirit Eye Art. He immediately saw faint text and sentences flying around the White Jade Paperweight, flowing endlessly!

Then, the Paperweight spun in mid-air, facing Qiu Yan directly, and unleashed a strange power!

Qiu Yan felt his soul sway, as if it were about to leave his body, but he quickly regained his composure. However, the memories of the text within his soul began to circulate and settle downwards, as if they were sinking and flowing out of his soul.

"So that's how it is! That Divine Soul only wanted to immobilize me; the real thing that stole my literary talent was this Paperweight! I just don't know where this thing came from, or how it could have such a bizarre effect!"

In that instant, Qiu Yan felt the Three Shoulder Flames change rapidly. The two flames of fortune and prosperity were fluctuating violently and showed signs of dimming. The poems and articles he remembered in his heart also moved with the flames!

"However, since it's already been revealed, there's no need for me to delay any longer!"

The moment the thought crossed Qiu Yan's mind, his muscles trembled, and his strength exploded without reservation!

Call!

Instantly, the air around him rippled. The black feathers that had gathered from all directions were blown away!

"Huh?" The Divine Soul on top of the birdcage was suddenly stunned. Before it could come to its senses, an extremely hot burst of Qi and Blood shot over!

The intensity of this masculine Qi and Blood exceeded his expectations. Even halfway there, the surging heat wave caused his Divine Soul to fluctuate rapidly, showing signs of disintegration and collapse!

"What's going on?" Divine Soul was instantly terrified! He instinctively retreated and desperately dodged.

Snap!

The Qi and Blood and Divine Soul brushed past each other, striking the top of the birdcage. The top of the cage instantly burst into flames, as if a real object were being scorched by a raging fire. However, the Divine Soul knew clearly that this birdcage was a manifestation of the Earthly Soul's Divine Ability; it appeared real but was actually illusory. How could it possibly be burned by ordinary fire?

This is clearly a case of intense, fiery Qi and Blood!

"Such intense masculine Qi and Blood! This level has reached the Core-Forging Realm. Could this person be a cultivator at the Third Realm? Or perhaps a member of the Life Cultivation lineage, disguised as a scholar?"

A surge of rich Qi and Blood flashed through him, and his Divine Soul shifted, his senses sweeping over Qiu Yan, trying to investigate his true strength. But what he saw left him stunned on the spot.

Qiu Yan held a jade pendant in his hand, with a bright red, crystal-clear bead embedded in its center. The bead was dazzling and constantly spewed out streams of hot Qi and Blood, which condensed like arrows.

With a series of clangs, the arrows of Qi and Blood and blood struck the white White Jade Paperweight repeatedly, sending it flying sideways!

"How is that possible? Literary Ancestor Paperweight is hard to get close to! What is the origin of that jade pendant? There's no spiritual energy emanating from it, so it's definitely not Law Treasure!"

Just as Divine Soul's emotions were turbulent, Qiu Yan suddenly looked up at him and revealed a strange smile that made Divine Soul's heart tremble. However, with the birdcage on fire, the most urgent task was to extinguish it. Divine Soul suppressed his thoughts and tried to put out the fire, but the flames suddenly swelled up. What was originally just a manifestation of yang Qi and Blood and blood now revealed fluctuations of divine power.

Refine!

The next moment, most of the birdcage exploded, revealing the secrets of the Soul Dao within. These secrets coalesced into a single point and were refined by flames into half a talisman!

"What's going on?" His Divine Soul trembled violently, feeling that the connection between himself and the birdcage had been severed by more than half. He was shocked. In a flash, his Divine Soul formed hand seals, his Heart Fire ignited, the ground around him rippled, Spiritual Qi surged, the Five Elements trembled, and his will interfered with reality!

Dao Arts!

But just as this Dao Arts was activated, Qiu Yan raised his hand at the opportune moment and waved it, sending out countless Heart Demon Fragment flying through the air!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Despite his Divine Soul shifting left and right, he was first surrounded by the Qi and Blood and qi filling the room, and then the birdcage was scorched by the flames, causing his senses to break. His condition was already poor, so it was inevitable that his movements would be sluggish. In the end, he was hit by several fragments, and his thoughts surged and became chaotic. He froze in the air for a moment.

For Qiu Yan, this short time was enough. He flipped his wrist, changed the direction of the jade pendant, and the red beads on the jade shot out rich Qi and Blood, which directly hit his Divine Soul.

"Not good!"

The Divine Soul screamed in terror, its body fluctuated, half of it was covered and dissolved by the Qi and Blood, even the inner Heart Fire was exposed, the entire Divine Soul twisted and trembled, gradually being tainted by the flames formed by the Qi and Blood and qi and divine power, struggling and rolling, unable to care about anything else.

Apart from this one enemy, Qiu Yan withdrew his attention, expanded his senses, and enveloped the Paperweight.

The Paperweight flew through the air, intending to suppress, extract, and condense the Literary Thought memories and aura within Qiu Yan's soul, ultimately separating them from the outside world. However, Qiu Yan's Nature Cultivation was successful, and his Three Souls Half-Step Fusion, allowing him to withstand the suppression and condensation. He then took out the jade pendant at his waist, unleashing a surge of Qi and Blood, forcing the White Jade Paperweight to retreat repeatedly.

Strangely enough, the Paperweight seemed to have a mind of its own. It came flying through the air, threatening us, but now that it was blocked by the Qi and Blood, and saw that the Divine Soul was burned by the raging fire, it turned its head and flew out of the window, wanting to return the way it came!

"You come and go as you please? There's no such easy way out! I've waited here for so long, letting that Divine Soul cultivator use his Divine Ability, all to find out the root of the problem. Now that you, Paperweight, are here, no matter what secrets you hold, you won't escape!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding masculine Qi and Blood surged and converged towards the Paperweight.

Whew! Whew! Whew!

Qiu Yan's body remained still, but his Living Soul leaped out from above his head. The Three Souls, which Half-Step Fusion, could already remain in the sunlight for a period of time. However, this appearance startled the Divine Soul that was howling in the raging fire.

"This scholar named Qiu Yan not only possesses formidable Life Cultivation, but he has also laid the foundation in the path of Nature Cultivation, only one step away from condensing his Divine Soul! We were fooled by him before! Moreover, there should be a deity behind him..."

Thinking of this, Divine Soul felt a strong urge to retreat and seized the opportunity to withdraw.

But suddenly, two bookshelves flew out from Qiu Yan's soul and rushed towards Divine Soul. One bookshelf was filled with the flow of scriptures, entangling and suppressing, while the other exuded the aura of Sage, mobilizing the surrounding Order.

"This is his Earthly Soul? You underestimate me. Even if you Half-Step Fusion of Three Souls, it is still not Divine Soul. Watch me break it!" The Divine Soul was enraged and ignored the flames on its soul. It used Dao Arts and mobilized Spiritual Qi, but it was directly shattered by a scroll of Sage Manuscript!

"What!"

This Divine Soul, already severely injured, was now entangled and suppressed, instantly losing its ability to resist and was absorbed into the Classics Section Bookshelf, where it was suppressed.

"What's going on? This person's Earthly Soul can entangle and suppress a soul? But could it be that he thinks this can trap a Divine Soul cultivator?" This Divine Soul still had flames burning on its body, and it was seriously injured, but it still activated its Dao Arts, trying to break free.

However, although this soul cultivator had entered the Third Realm of cultivation, he was only equivalent to Seventh-Rank Deity. How could he possibly resist Qiu Yan's Fourth Grade divine power?

"Hahaha!" Laughter suddenly came from the side, and a sinister aura emanated from it. A Black Skeleton Divine Soul approached. "Finally, someone else has been suppressed here. Don't waste your energy, just stay put..."

The Divine Soul that had just been suppressed was shocked. "Hmm? Another cultivator at the Third Realm? No! You've already separated your Divine Sense? You're at the Third Tier of the Third Realm? How did you end up here? Could you also have been suppressed?"

Leaving aside the meeting of the two souls within the Classics Section Bookshelf, let's talk about Qiu Yan.

He used the Masters Section Bookshelf to suppress the Divine Soul, and without stopping, the bookshelves for the History Section Bookshelf and Anthologies Section Bookshelf also flew out, converging with the Qi and Blood, surrounding the White Jade Paperweight, with the Qi and Blood and qi surging and the soul power surging!

The next moment, the White Jade Paperweight trembled and burst forth with a powerful Literary Thought Aura. The text flowed, and countless scriptures were transmitted, each sentence as tangible as a physical entity, containing profound power.

But the two bookshelves were equally impressive, each rotating and radiating historical atmosphere and human life, rushing past. History guided the meaning of the classics, and human life carried Literary Thought. For a moment, they formed a balance and stalemate with the classics.

The White Jade Paperweight had come to a standstill due to the stalemate and could no longer escape. At this moment, a pair of fleshy hands reached out and grabbed it!

Boom!

The White Jade Paperweight struggled instinctively, but a strong Martial Dao Will surged from its hand, filled with the spirit of "doing what you preach and seizing the moment," and mixed with a faint Divine Power Flame, scorching the Paperweight, refining the white jade, and suppressing its spirituality.

Qiu Yan grabbed the Paperweight, suppressing the spiritual energy within. He then sensed a rich Literary Thought atmosphere within it. In an instant, his mind became hazy, and he seemed to see nearly a hundred scholars before him, some reading, some writing. Some came from wealthy families, while others came from poor families, but all were persistent in their studies, spending more than a decade studying diligently, devoting themselves wholeheartedly to their studies. Yet, in the end, their knowledge was taken away by others!

A surge of anger welled up inside him.
