Chapter 803 The Humanitarian Movement (Part 1)
When Xu Changqing and the Longmen Taifu were debating the origin of Confucianism, a hint of impatience appeared on the faces of the other two men beside him, and they looked at the Longmen Taifu with great resentment, feeling as if they wanted to seal his mouth.
Compared to the Longmen Taifu who likes to study and learn, both the oldest Longmen Taishi and the enterprising Longmen Taibao are not interested in where Confucianism comes from. They just want to know what the humanity in Xu Changqing's mouth is. However, they are not able to stop the Longmen Taifu, so they can only watch him bring the topic to other places.
Now that the Longmen Grand Tutor was suddenly stopped by Xu Changqing, the Longmen Grand Tutor immediately interrupted and said, "The Supreme Immortal should talk about humanity!"
"Don't worry, this human way is also related to the origin of Confucianism I mentioned." Xu Changqing waved his hand and signaled that the Longmen Taibao should be calm. Then he looked at the Longmen Taifu and said, "Since you have read poetry and books, you must have discovered that, except for those immortal methods, most of the Confucian classics are the learning of transcendence and governance of the world. One is the immortal method of transcendence and cultivation of the mind, and the other is the common method of transcendence and governance of the world. The two should be contradictory, but they appear in a classic at the same time. Don't you find it strange? And have you discovered that almost all the Confucian immortal methods recorded in those classics are scattered and written in a scattered manner, just like to echo this passage of scripture, it is not systematic, and some are even more inconsistent with the Taoist principles. Unlike other Confucian literary and Taoist laws, there is a complete order of cultivation from foundation building to enlightenment of the Tao, like the sage king's method of realizing the mind."
"This..." The Longmen Taifu didn't know how to argue Xu Changqing's statement for a moment, and he sat there blankly as if he was trapped in a demonic obstacle.
In fact, before Xu Changqing appeared, the Longmen Taifu had already discovered many things wrong from those Confucian classics. For example, the more he regarded the classic as the core, the more he looked like the transcendental law, which talked about power, politics, and the words of being a human being were far more than those of practicing and enlightening the Tao. However, in the past, because he was extremely awe of the ancestors of the mountain gate, even if he had doubts in his heart, he only thought that he had not read the classics and had no doubt at all.
However, now Xu Changqing's words were like a key. He completely released all kinds of doubts that were blocked from the heart of the Longmen Grand Tutor, making the parts that were originally something that made people feel wrong in the Confucian classics I had read before became more obvious, and thus made him doubt his own way.
With the changes in the Longmen Taifu Daoxin, his body also changed accordingly. His magic power was originally unable to control it from the heart because he had just borrowed spiritual tea to break through the realm, so that it kept going outward. But now all the magic power scattered outward disappeared, and even he could not feel any magic power in his body. His whole body was like a dead tree and had no vitality. His dark hair gradually faded at this moment. He was replaced by white, and his whole body looked dead.
The sudden change of the Longmen Taifu caught the other two people off guard. No matter how dull they were, they could feel something was wrong with the Longmen Taifu. However, when they wanted to get up to check the Longmen Taifu's situation and rescue them according to their methods, they found that their bodies seemed to be trapped in an invisible rock and could not move.
"What does the Supreme Immortal mean?" The two of them were a little frightened and their voices trembled slightly, and they asked Xu Changqing.
"I just don't want you to interrupt his chance." Although Xu Changqing's expression seemed calm, the look of looking at the Longmen Grand Tutor had a hint of surprise.
When he met the Three Dukes of Longmen just now, Xu Changqing had already seen that among the three people, if they talked about their current cultivation level, they would naturally be the youngest Longmen Taibao Master. However, if they talked about their cultivation potential, the Longmen Taifu, who already had a trace of literary energy, would obviously be better. However, he did not expect that the Longmen Taifu would actually enter the state of death enlightenment based on his own words. As long as the Longmen Taifu could overcome this hurdle and sort out the knowledge he had learned in his life into his own great way, then he would be able to break through the realm, reach the sky in one step, and enter the realm of returning to the void immortal.
If it is just that the Longmen Taifu understands the great way, it may take ten days and half a month, or even longer. Xu Changqing doesn't have so much time to waste here, so Jueding takes action to help him.
Xu Changqing used his magic power to activate a stream of textbooks in his body. He raised his hand to penetrate it into the heavenly spirit of the Longmen Taifu, rushed his heavenly gate open, and used this as a guide to induced all the silent textbooks and magic power in the Longmen Taifu's body.
The Taoist mind and Dharma image he had collected before immediately appeared behind the head of the Longmen Taifu immediately. However, the difference from the moment he had just begun was that the Confucian Taoist golden elixir, which had become extremely solid, was instantly dispersed into countless light spots as he was hit by an invisible force, and each light spot contained a large number of Confucian classics. The Longmen Taifu should have been dispersed with the golden elixir, and his soul was dispersed and his magic power was lost. But on the contrary, the dispersal of the golden elixir made his originally pale face more vibrant rosy, and at the same time, the hair that had just turned white on his head began to slowly return to black.
At this time, the light spots formed after the golden elixir dispersed instantly gathered together, but they did not condense into pills again, but instead turned into a blue-white book script. Various words continued to emerge from the book script script, penetrated into the body of the Longmen Taifu, and ran along the meridians for a while, and then drilled out from the Tianling Baihui and returned to the book script script. Every time the text was moved, a trace of the book script was brought out from the body of the Longmen Taifu, causing the book script to change from virtual to real, and the magic power and breath of the Longmen Taifu also changed accordingly.
The people who have the most intuitive feeling about the changes of the Longmen Taifu are the Longmen Taishi and Taibao who have been with him for many years. They clearly felt every change that the Longmen Taishi, who should have been the lowest cultivation among them. Not to mention anything else, just the gradually strengthening magic power has already made them feel like they were suppressed by the mountain.
"This, is this the realm of the Immortal of the Returning Empty?" Longmen Taibao, who was born in the inner mountain gate, has also come into contact with many Immortals of the Immortals of the Immortals of the Immortals. He naturally felt the magical aura of the body of their bodies more than once. Although the magical aura of the Immortal in the Dragon Gate is not that strong, it is certain that it has changed to that direction.
Xu Changqing nodded and praised, "He is very good! He can actually seize this opportunity and break through to the realm of the Immortal of the Returning Void. His great cultivation should have accumulated to the edge of the breakthrough, and all he lacks is the accumulation of magic power." As he said, he turned to look at the Longmen Taishi and Taibao with a complicated expression, and said, "Why are you envious? Are you jealous?"
It is completely false to say that they are not envious and jealous. Although the three masters of Longmen are one and the relationship between the three is extremely close, Longmen Taibao is also the grandson-in-law of Longmen Taifu, no matter how good the relationship is, when they meet an acquaintance who is clearly at the level of cultivation and reach the realm they have always dreamed of in a short time, the gap in their hearts will inevitably arise. However, the cultivation of the two of them is extraordinary, and they can quickly get rid of the negative emotions and return to normal.
"I am indeed a little envious and jealous." The Grand Master of Longmen did not hide it, but instead spoke frankly and expressed his feelings. But then he looked at Xu Changqing with a little expectation and said, "But I think the immortal should be able to help me. I wonder what I said below is right?"
Xu Changqing just smiled when he heard this, without giving the other party an accurate answer. A trace of disappointment flashed in the eyes of the Longmen Grand Master.
Soon, the cultivation level of the Longmen Taifu was stabilized with the help of the text-book aura that Xu Changqing injected into his body. The calligraphy magic image was also taken back into his body by him. The magic aura that originally emitted by the Returning Void Immortal Magic Power disappeared completely. The Longmen Taifu returned to his initial inconspicuous appearance. The only thing that changed was that the twilight aura that originally enveloped him was replaced by a sensation of vitality.
"Congratulations!" The Grand Master of Longmen and Taibao congratulated each other to his colleagues. Although the words were simple, they were also in line with the Confucian style of dealing with gentlemen who were as light as water.
"Tongxi." The Grand Tutor of Longmen also responded briefly, and used these two words to show that he was not separated from the Three Dukes' Oneness.
After hearing what the Longmen Taifu said, the two of them were relieved. After all, there was an unwritten rule in Zhiyuan Hall, that is, if someone in the subordinate branches has reached the realm of returning to the void, then the person can enter the mountain gate in Zhiyuan Hall to practice. According to this rule, the Longmen Taifu is now qualified to leave the dilemma of Longmen Academy, and the other two are a little worried about this. Now when they hear the Longmen Taifu's statement, they naturally feel at ease. The Longmen Taifu's statement is not just for the two colleagues, but also for Xu Changqing. It is a disguised act of taking the initiative to surrender.
Xu Changqing could naturally hear the meaning of the words of the Longmen Taifu. He was also happy that he could conquer one of the three masters of Longmen so quickly, but he still had a calm expression on his face, and then said: "You can break through the barrier of realm. I think you have understood the contradictions in the Confucian literature and Taoism of the Kunlun Three Realms that I mentioned before."
"Not bad!" The Longmen Taifu nodded, his expression became particularly serious, and he said, "I didn't expect that my Confucianism actually has two completely different ways. I think this is why Zhiyuantang has a distinction between papers and principles."
Upon hearing this, the Longmen Taibao frowned and said in confusion: "Taifu, what are you talking about? Why don't we understand the meaning at all?"
"In fact, what Puhua Shangxian just said about Confucianism originated from the secular world, it should be true." The Grand Tutor of Longmen sighed slightly and said.
"What?" the two of them said in surprise.
