Becoming God of a Dystopian World

Chapter 97 - Kong Fu Zi And The Dragon Road



"It was given to the Sect by the famous Sang Sang Merchants. After which the first elder changed a few things. Before only a single person could use it but after First Elder\'s enhancement, its capacity is close to infinite."

Wu Yang explained to Zhao Luo who had \'confusion\' written all over his face.

"But that\'s the only change in the relic that the sect has made. The relic is around a hundred years old. The people of the Earth called it Fu Zi Time. While the challenge is based on memorizing and learning. Obviously, unlike the Drums of Bellum and the moonstones, the world inside the capsule is overlooked by one of the ranked elders."

Wu Yang chattered away the details about the challenge as if he was one of the makers of the relic.

Zhao Luo understood the capsule way better now.

\'So it was a Virtual Reality game or Video capsule that Brother Sang\'s father must have given to the sect. While Fu Zi is....hmmm.\' 

Zhao Luo wondered if he was thinking correctly and straight.

\'Is it correct for me to think that the Fu Zi here is that Fu Zi?\'

Zhao Luo couldn\'t get it off his mind.

If this Fu Zi was the Kong Fu Zi from his World then things would be getting interesting soon.

"Well, everything will be cleared soon."

Zhao Luo said as that was the truth.

He only had to wait till he entered the capsule.

He was still in the line as the line progressed quite faster than Zhao Luo had thought.

Yan who was leading Zhao Luo\'s group had already entered the capsule and disappeared into the World where the challenge would be taking place.

The other\'s turn also came one by one as now Zhao Luo and Wu Yang were left from their group.

"Go in fast."

Zhao Luo said to Wu Yang who was standing in front of him and was just about to enter the capsule.

"Do you want to go before me?"

Wu Yang stopped and looked at Zha Luo blankly while questioning him.

"No, but just hurry."

Zhao Luo told him with an excited face. 

Wu Yang smirked and took even more time to enter the capsule.

\'Woosh.\'

The moment he entered it, Wu Yang disappeared just like the ones before him.

\'Is it like a teleportation mechanism?\'

Zhao Lio wondered as it was his turn to enter the capsule.

He remembered the TP circles in the teleportation building in the cities of the Xin Range.

While wandering about the mechanism that was making the disciples vanish when they entered it, Zhao Luo got in the capsule.

The next instant he felt the space around him fluctuating.

\'Woosh.\'

Zhao Luo disappeared from inside the capsule.

The next instant he was in a lush green place.

"Wow."

Zhao Luo exclaimed as he appeared in this place.

All the disciples who had entered before him were here.

Wu Yang, Yan, Feng Mei, and others were also here as Zhao Luo joined them.

He wasn\'t the last to enter this place.

The other disciples were still entering this green area.

"This is a big land."

Zhao Luo said as he looked around.

No matter where he looked there was only grass and more grass. He was standing under an open and vast blue sky.

\'Indeed it\'s too unreal.\'

Zhao Luo thought with a confused expression.

His mind had many questions such as \'how did they even come up with such a World?\'

\'Why did the Sect even place this as a challenge in the training area?\'

But the question which Zhao Luo wanted to be answered was definitely about the name of this challenge.

\'Why Fu Zi time? Is it really about the great Confucius? But why did Brother Sang\'s father gave it to the Sect?\'

Zhao Luo had all these questions piled up in his head.

While Zhao Luo was lost in his thought, more and more disciples kept on entering the World.

After a short while, all the disciples in the trainee hall were inside the challenge.

There was a presence that shocked Zhao Luo.

Even Mite was here.

"Senior, are you even fully healed?"

Zhao Luo asked him as this was a challenge so what was an injured person doing here.

"Don\'t worry about me. I may just do better than you this challenge."

Mite said with a grin on his face.

\'I worry about him and he taunts me. Oh well.\'

Zhao Luo didn\'t want to worry about this gorilla bastard anymore as he looked ahead.

The disciples of the trainee hall were all gathered on the vast green land waiting for the challenge to start.

Bang!

Right then a sound of an explosion echoed around the area.

Some Old Man had fallen from the sky and landed in the middle of thousands of disciples gathered around him.

Coincidently that is where Zhao Luo was standing with Wu Yang and the others.

"Kong Fu Zi."

Zhao Luo murmured as he looked at the old man.

The old man had a sturdy body with a snow-like beard that was almost touching the grass tip.

Eyes brighter than an eagle, so bright that they could pierce through anyone\'s mind if he just glanced at them. The old man\'s facial features were so sharp that it could be said that they had been carved by someone.

\'Indeed it\'s Kong Fu Zi. They designed him pretty well.\'

Zhao Luo bowed towards Fu Zi to pay his respect to a legendary symbol of his past while praising whoever made this version of Fu Zi which was such a perfect replica.

\'Is it an NPC?\'

Zhao Luo questioned in his mind since obviously, he couldn\'t ask the old man in front of him.

The personification of Confucius was looking around as he covered all the disciples around him in less than 5 glances.

Nod!

The old man nodded as he opened his mouth.

Zhao Luo wondered what this character of Fu Zi will say to them.

"There is only one way to get the appointment of heaven."

Fu Zi said as all the disciples were listening to him.

This could just be the start of their challenge.

\'Is this what we will have to memorize and learn?\'

Zhao Luo thought as Fu Zi otherwise known as Master Kong had just begun. 

"That is to become a Superior Person."

Fu Zi announced as his eyes were shining with bright rays of light.

\'Superior person? How do I become a superior person?\'

Everyone who was listening to Fu Zi had the same question.

The next moment their question was being answered.

"Stay calm and quiet under pressure."

"Be all-embracing."

"Have the courage to act right."

"Remember these three teachings. You will embark on the journey of the dragon."

Fu Zi taught them the ways to be the superior person as he flapped his robe backward.

"Now You all shall embark on the Journey of Dragon. Follow the teaching and only then the suitable ones will get their appointment with the heavens at the end of this journey."

Fu Zi announced as he waved his hand and a skeletal dragon body appeared.

The skull of the dragon was in front of this crowd of thousand disciples.

Zhao Luo looked at the skull and realized how the mouth of the dragon was open as an entrance to a road.

\'There is no end.\'

Zhao Luo looked through the dragon\'s mouth and saw a white road that just continued for who knows how long.

"The challenge will start now. Till the dragon road ends remember the three teachings and set on the path of becoming superior."

Fu Zi delivered the last bids of his line and ended the speech with a blast.

Bang!

Fu Zi again disappeared in the skies above them.

All the disciples were excited. They didn\'t even understand the teachings as much as they were focused on the word \'superior\'.

There were four groups of disciples now based on their actions and thoughts.

\'I can become a superior person if I just see the end of this path?\'

Some disciples thought. This was the first group.

While the others were in an even worse condition than this group of disciples.

"What were the teachings? Can someone repeat them?"

Shouts of such questions started rising from different places.

"I remember he said something about embracing. Do we have to hug it out?"

The discussion between the disciples took weird turns as they couldn\'t even remember the three teachings perfectly. 

Then there was this group who remembered the teaching but didn\'t understand them well enough.

They had already stepped inside the mouth of the dragon. Now the road, which was the dragon\'s body, they were walking on it as they started advancing.

They had an ahead start than the others. There were thousands of disciples already on the dragon road.

The fourth group was Zhao Luo\'s.

They were standing there waiting for Zhao Luo to say something or give them the go-ahead.

Zhao Luo waited as he looked at the three groups which covered all the disciples of the trainee hall. 

The other two groups started to get on the dragon road too after seeing the third group already advancing.

Extra: Fu Zi time is a combination of virtual World and space that the Sect has combined with the World where the personification of Fu Zi appears that teaches the three important factors or teachings of Confucianism.

There is a mission factor that is completing the road like seeing the end of the road.

There will be missions along the way till the end when the superior disciples will be announced
