Scholar's ​​Quip: I Became a Saint by Criticizing Others

Outside the Gongyuan of Qingyang County, poor scholar Gu Changqing was holding a cracked inkstone and munching on cold cooking cakes. He wrote an essay on etiquette and people's hearts, but was suppressed by the examiner because of his sharp words. When one is disheartened, the cracking inkstone awakens the sage's art of speaking - confronting fake cultivators, defending country squires, and refuting corrupt officials. Speaking out is the law, and winning the argument leads to practice. With the three-inch sharpness of his tongue, he can condense his literary spirit, break through demonic obstacles, and gain opportunities. He quarreled with the three Confucian scholars to attract incense from the Confucian Temple, and slandered his senior brother to join the Qingyun Sect. However, he was targeted by the mysterious altar forces because of his "words and words" and wanted to sacrifice him to refine the devil. Gu Changqing holds the mind-bending inkstone, holds the heaven and geography in his mouth, determines the world with words, uses his words to defy heaven and become a saint, overcomes the obstacles of immortals and demons, and finally reaches the top of the immortal path and becomes a literary saint who protects the common people.
