Chapter 1964: Does it need a WiFi connection?
The Scholarly Rune was the signature rune of the Sage, similar to the Imperial Rune of the Heavenly Emperor, and there was no way for Shuhang to copy it.
Even among the 13 Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction, who received the teachings of the Sage himself, only four were able to manifest an imitation of the Scholarly Rune, which was still far worse than the original.
Nevertheless, even if one learned how to imitate the Scholarly Rune, without the strength of a Tribulation Transcender, there was no way to use the technique.
While possessed by the Scholarly Sage’s obsession, there was nothing that Song Shuhang could learn or improve other than the ❮Scholarly Indestructible Body of the Buddha❯ that he learned a long time ago.
The main reason was that the Sage and the fat ball were simply too powerful.
In a battle between the two, ordinary secret techniques would have no effect at all.
The duo used only top-tier techniques, which Song Shuhang could barely understand, let alone learn.
As a newbie, there was nothing he could do but watch helplessly.

The Scholarly Runes clashed with the fat ball’s artillery fire, releasing a blinding light along with deafening explosions.
…
The runes wrapped around the artillery fire, neutralizing the attack in a gentle manner.
Doing so consumed a lot of energy, but right below them were the people of the scholarly faction. Some disciples had yet to retreat into the world of the golden lotus, so the Sage had no choice but to use up some extra energy in order to ensure their safety.
In addition, the main world was not a great place for such a battle as either of their attacks could bring about the end of the world.
For powerhouses of such levels, the world was simply too fragile.

The Scholarly Sage continued wearing a smile after neutralizing the fat ball’s bombardment.
Then, he leaped into the disordered dimensional space.
The disordered space, which would give a headache to any Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender, was no different from flat ground for the Scholarly Sage.
During this time, Scholarly Runes kept on emerging from his body, counteracting the fat ball’s attacks.
The fat ball suddenly said, “I guess it’s time to get serious.”
The Sage stretched out his hand and swiped it in front of him. Then, another script of ten thousand Scholarly Runes appeared. This time, instead of attacking the fat ball, the Scholarly Runes scattered to every corner of the disordered space.
A dark space took shape, swallowing the entire sky above the scholarly faction.
In ancient times, before becoming the strongest in the universe, the Sage often accepted challenges from other powerhouses.
Especially after the sudden disappearance of the previous Wielder of the Heaven’s Will, the powerhouses of the universe all began to compete for the position.
During those years, the powerhouses whose strength was off the charts often went to the scholarly faction to challenge the Scholarly Sage.
Those battles could have easily destroyed the entire scholarly faction through the sheer destructive force that was unleashed.
In the beginning, the Sage tried his best to transfer the battlefield into deep space. But later on, as more and more people began to challenge him, he found it to be very troublesome to leave the planet every time.
As such, the Scholarly Sage came up with a spatial magical technique that could make things easier for him.
With this magical technique, a space dedicated to fighting could be created in the sky above the scholarly faction.
Inside the space was nothing but empty land.
Moreover, the scenes of the battles in this space could be projected over the sky of the scholarly faction and used as teaching material to guide the disciples in their cultivation.
The big shots in the ancient era were always very headstrong. In those days, when there was a lot of spiritual energy and many treasures lying around, it was much easier to create such a combat space than it was today.
It’s just that after the Sage disappeared, nobody could bring out this space again.
The members of the scholarly faction all wondered if this space had collapsed with the fall of the Sage.
But today, this space had made a reappearance.

“A truly… Kshhh… Nostalgic… Place.” The fat ball’s voice was a little stiff. There was even a static noise, similar to the sound that would appear when an old tv lost signal, that could occasionally be heard as it spoke.
Anyway, it was no stranger to this space.
Before it ascended, the battle between itself and the Sage was fought in this very same space. However, this combat space had been unable to contain the battle between them.
In the end, it and the Sage had to move their battlefield to a relatively empty star field.
The fat ball’s voice said intermittently, “But this time, the battle between us, will not be like the one in the ancient era.”

Back then, it had been at a complete disadvantage when fighting against the Sage.
But this time was different. Its main body had become the Wielder of the Heaven’s Will, and it had also become a ruler of the Netherworld. It was hundreds of times stronger than it was back then.
The Scholarly Sage smiled gently. Then, he raised his hand.
The big Holy Ape behind him crouched down and handed the Scholarly Scripture in its hand to the Sage.
Song Shuhang was stunned. The Holy Apes can do something like this?

The Sage took the huge Scholarly Scripture into his hand and turned to the first page.
This time, the Holy Apes behind him did not utter a word. They were like behaved students, sitting in their seats and waiting for their teacher to begin the lesson.

The Sage stretched out his hand and pressed it down on the scripture. Afterward, a string of Scholarly Runes jumped out of the scripture, condensing into a sword of golden light in his hand.
It was a technique that Song Shuhang had never even thought of. Also, he could not understand it at all.
I can’t learn this one either…

Without mastering the Scholarly Rune, there was no way of imitating the Scholarly Sage’s grandiose and cool techniques.
The fat ball said solemnly, “I have surpassed you.”
“Kshh, kshh~ Boom! Boom! Boom!”
In the fortress behind it, over 300 cannons locked onto the position of the Sage and fired wildly.
It was a perfect lock-on. Once they had locked onto their target, there was no way to dodge their attacks.
However, inside the Scholarly Scripture in the Sage’s hands was a law that even the fat ball could not understand.
The existence of the Sage and Song Shuhang became vague. Under the interference of this law, the fat ball’s attack failed to lock onto either the Scholarly Sage or Song Shuhang.
Holding a scripture and a sword of golden light in his hand, the Sage moved as fast as lightning through the artillery shots.
He easily avoided the attacks and arrived at the fat ball’s side.
He swung the sword in his hand, slashing the fat ball’s body.
This was a sword that could split the skies and the earth apart.
“Klack!”
However, the sword of light broke.
The fat ball’s fortress could help it both offensively and defensively. Two structures similar to twisted mechanical arms blocked the Sage’s sword strike and smashed the sword apart.
Despite the broken sword, the Sage did not panic.
He swung the Scholarly Scripture in his left hand and slammed it into the fat ball’s face.
“Knowledge is power!” The virtuous lamia’s voice dubbed over the scene using Senior White Two’s voice.

The thick Scholarly Scripture smacked the fat ball’s face and shattered.
The Sage’s left hand then pressed on the fat ball’s face.
Power that could destroy worlds condensed in the palm of the Sage and struck the head of the fat ball’s clone. This clone that had a human shape was a lot more fun to play with than the fat ball’s main body.
The fat ball’s head was blasted beyond recognition.
[Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!] Song Shuhang’s heart ached.
The secret appraisal technique was activated again—this time, instead of his right hand, it was his left hand that had been used.
A deep, gnawing pain assaulted Song Shuhang’s entire body as a price for having used the secret appraisal technique.
This time… The appraisal did not fail.
Instead, a short, brief piece of information was appraised.

Song Shuhang looked confused.
Remote-controlled version?
