Taoist Master Taiwei spoke solemnly and had a solemn face.
He looked at Song Zhishu with a look of expectation in his eyes, waiting for an answer.
And he believed that the name of the future leader of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance could definitely impress anyone.
Because his status is no less than that of the heads of major sects, and more importantly, he also controls the world's casual cultivators.
This is a force that cannot be ignored. It can attract everyone's attention. There are so many casual cultivators in the world. Some are strong and some are weak. If they can be dispatched and assigned at will like the disciples of all major sects, they will immediately become the most powerful person in the world.
figure.
Song Zhishu naturally knew this and understood the importance of this position.
The other party wants to use his reputation among casual cultivators to attract more casual cultivators to join.
Then there is the most powerful man in the world like Sword Madman sitting here. In other words, it is equivalent to another sect.
However, after thinking for a moment, a smile appeared on his face and he continued: "Senior Taiwei, I think this junior is not the only one who can take over the position of alliance leader, right?"
Previously, Song Zhishu heard the most critical message in the other party's words, which was that he represented Shushan.
And more importantly, once the Loose Cultivator Alliance is established, it will definitely be a very powerful force in today's world.
Everyone wants to take control of this force, and since it is led by the major sects, it is obvious that they will not let such a powerful force of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance fall into the hands of outsiders.
Therefore, based on Song Zhishu's inference, he understood that everything was not as simple as the other party said.
"My little friend is really smart, I admire you very much."
Taoist Priest Taiwei smiled when he heard this, and he had no intention of hiding it, so he spoke directly: "It is the idea of all the major sects to establish an alliance of casual cultivators, so they naturally want to participate, and each sect will send a representative.
As the future heir to the leader of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, and such people are collectively called Daozi, I, the Shushan Sword Sect, are my favorite candidate, and you are my little friend."
"My dear friend, you have excellent character and a heart of justice. I will tell you the truth. The reason why the old Taoist admires my dear friend is my reputation among casual cultivators. There is nothing to hide. Of course, after my dear friend agreed, I
Shushan will not impose any restrictions on you, just like before, all you need is that you have a name as a casual cultivator."
He explained everything clearly and said all his thoughts at the same time, honestly and honestly, without hiding anything.
Apart from his own character, there are other reasons why he likes Song Zhishu.
Both of them are smart people and understand the meaning.
Sanxiu Alliance, Taozi.
After Song Zhishu heard these words, he did not speak, but remained silent.
In fact, he is quite supportive of the alliance of major sects and their plan to establish an alliance of casual cultivators to concentrate the power of casual cultivators. The world is about to be in chaos, and no one can survive alone. They can only face it head-on.
The best policy is to resist chaos.
Now, top forces such as Taihao Sword Sect and Shushan Sword Sect have made moves to conquer all sects in the world.
This is indeed a good choice. Once encountering a demonic chaos, you can respond as quickly as possible, and there will no longer be a situation where each is independent. Just like the Yucheng chaos this time, Song Zhishu did see the sects uniting, but
But it's not close.
Just like every force has its own ideas about himself, and more importantly, he has never discovered anyone from the Great Zhou Dynasty.
It should be noted that Jinzhou belonged to the Great Zhou Dynasty, but it basically did not appear. What does this mean?
The answer is self-evident.
If there is a sect alliance as the leader, it will not be like this, and the same is true for casual cultivators.
However, from Taoist Priest Taiwei's words, Song Zhishu also heard another meaning, that is, all the major sects want to master the casual cultivators, and Jian Maojun is nothing more than a temporary replacement, so as to facilitate the establishment of a faster
An alliance of casual cultivators was established.
In the end, this force will eventually fall into a certain force.
With his thoughts at this point, he sighed slightly in his heart, hoping that the major forces would not go to war over this.
As for the invitation from the Shushan Sword Sect, Song Zhishu thought for a moment and then immediately said: "Then what should I do if this junior agrees to join the Rogue Cultivator Alliance and become a so-called Taoist disciple?"
"It's very simple."
Taoist priest Taiwei smiled: "Coordinate all the casual cultivators and prepare for becoming the leader of the rogue cultivators in the future."
"As for how to become the leader of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, the major sects are still discussing it. Since the matter is so important, no decision has been made yet."
The leader of the casual cultivator alliance is equivalent to the leader of a sect. If the representative sent by someone can sit in this position, his strength must have greatly increased, so that they are still quarreling now.
In this case, we have to come up with candidates first.
"I see."
Song Zhishu nodded, but he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart: "But why did the senior choose the junior as the representative of Shushan? I know that there is a chief senior brother in Shushan, and besides, Daoyou Xu is also very good. He is humble and powerful. No matter how you look at it, it will be his turn."
Not like me, an outsider?"
"All major sects and Taoist disciples must work hard to integrate the sects in the world and will not participate in it. Although Chang Yu is good, it is not good."
Taoist Master Taiwei took a step forward and said seriously: "If the power of casual cultivators can be condensed, it will be absolutely powerful, and it is understandable that all the top forces want to control it. However, the old Taoist is worried that if this happens, there will be
There are variables. I hope that the casual cultivators will be independent from the sect and not subject to anyone’s control. They are just cooperating."
"And this little friend has no family or sect, does not belong to any force, and is a just person. It can be said that he is the best candidate for the future leader of the alliance."
"With you here, no one will control the world's casual cultivators. This world needs balance."
His meaning is very simple. Once a certain force takes control of the casual cultivator, its strength will be greatly enhanced, and other ideas may arise. With the addition of demons, the situation will become increasingly chaotic, so I don't want to see this happen.
In other words, Taoist Taiwei and the Shushan Sword Sect hope that everyone will unite as one to fight against the demons.
Therefore, Song Zhishu also recognized this statement.
Just imagine, if the Taihao Sword Sect obtains the power of the casual cultivators in the world, it will directly stabilize the number one sect in the world without any checks and balances. What if the idea of embezzling other forces comes up?
It might be okay at other times, but the key point is that now chaos is coming, and the situation is not optimistic.
Under such circumstances, no more accidents can occur.
"Song Xiaoyou."
At this time, Taoist Master Taiwei spoke again: "I don't want you to make a decision based on the general trend of the world, just based on personal considerations. If you can agree, I will join the Rogue Cultivator Alliance on behalf of Shushan. I will
Zong will not be stingy. It happens that my friend has reached the realm of pill formation, so I will give you a sword technique as a thank you."
Taoist priest Taiwei did not want to use the safety of the world to let Song Zhishu join the Rogue Cultivator Alliance on behalf of Shushan, even if the other party would agree.
But he felt that this approach was too selfish and it would be better to be normal so that the other party would not have any pressure.
And this is also the important reason why Taoist Master Taiwei wants to talk to Song Zhishu in person.
Song Zhishu was stunned when he heard this.
It is true that for the sake of the general trend, he would indeed choose to join the Rogue Cultivator Alliance as a representative of the Shushan Sword Sect.
Because he could feel that Taoist Taiwei was really worried about the complicated situation, which would affect the plan to fight against the demons. This was based on the overall situation, for the sake of the safety of the world, and to maintain the balance between the major forces as much as possible.
As long as there is balance, no one will have the upper hand, and there will be no inappropriate thoughts, and we will unite to fight against the monster.
But now, the other party does not consider the overall situation, but only uses the name of Shushan to make himself agree.
In other words, you don’t take the moral high ground and force others to submit.
It has been passed down for many years, and it was even vaguely called the number one Shushan Sword Sect in the past.
Thinking of this, Song Zhishu smiled and looked at the other party: "Okay, senior Taiwei, I can represent Shushan and join the casual cultivator alliance."
In fact, he knew very well that even if he did not represent Shushan, other forces would come to him. In that case, the meaning would be completely different. The Shushan Sword Sect emphasized inaction and had a righteous heart, and would not interfere at all most of the time.
In this way, Song Zhishu could do whatever he wanted without having to worry about anything.
But other forces are different and may put forward various conditions.
It is true that you can refuse, but it is also very troublesome.
Therefore, it is also a good choice to represent Shushan in the Loose Cultivator Alliance.
And even if you don't have yourself, there will be other candidates to stir up the storm. Once the situation is out of control, problems will easily arise.
Only by entering the game can you control it. Besides, there is Shushan Sword Sect behind you, so you don't need to worry too much.
"Okay, okay."
After Taoist Taiwei heard this, he couldn't help but smile.
As long as Song Zhishu agrees, things will be much easier to handle after that, and the casual cultivator alliance will be under control.
If the other party can become the next leader of the alliance, and then unite the major sects, they will definitely become a powerful force against the demons.
Without saying much, Taoist Taiwei took out a jade slip from his sleeve and said: "Little friend Song, this is my heart in Shushan. We must not shirk it. The chaos is coming, and more people need to come out.
The old Taoist also hopes that the little friend can grow up as soon as possible, become a strong man in this world, and do his best for the common people in the world."
"Thank you, Senior Taiwei."
Song Zhishu hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to accept it.
But he didn't check what was in the jade slip, but it was obvious that it was a sword technique.
"Okay, what should be said, the old Taoist has already said. This is the Shushan Sword Talisman, which represents our Shushan Sword Sect. It can make things easier for you. At the same time, if you encounter danger or something that cannot be decided, I will inject magic power into it.
Shushan Sword Sect has its own response."
Taoist Taiwei raised his hand, and rays of light gathered together, and then formed an ancient talisman in the shape of a sword, with the word "Shu Mountain" written on it.
It can be said that although Song Zhishu did not join the Shushan Sword Sect, this kind of treatment is almost only available to true disciples.
In response, Song Zhishu also nodded.
If you join the Loose Cultivator Alliance and become the so-called Taoist, you will probably encounter many things in the future. Some of them will be difficult to solve by yourself, and it will be better if Shushan comes to help.
Next, an old man and a young man chatted some more in the main hall. Song Zhishu asked about the general trend of the world today.
Especially about monsters, when all the questions have been answered accordingly, they are ready to leave.
Xu Changyu was once again summoned by Taiwei Taoist to send Song Zhishu back to Qingzhou.
"Brother, why didn't you tell Zhishu Song? He might encounter many dangers next." After Zhishu Song left, a tall black-haired old man walked out of the hall, holding a dragon-headed staff, exuding a powerful aura, especially
Those eyes have an even more frightening sword intent.
The old man is the master disciple of Shushan and the crazy swordsman brother. At first, the three of them were known as the Three Heroes of Shushan, and each one of them was a swordsman genius.
Now this old man serves as the great elder of Shushan, a real high-level person, and a famous and powerful person in the world today.
And the way he looked at Zhishu Song was a little worried.
After all, the other party has already joined the Rogue Cultivator Alliance on behalf of Shushan. Although he is not a disciple, he is still related to Shushan. It would be a pity if something happens to him.
"Song Xiaoyou is not as fragile as you think. He cultivates both Taoism and Confucianism, and integrates the two into one. He may become the pillar of our human race in the future." Taoist Taiwei smiled and continued: "Besides, how can you become a person without going through hardships?
Powerful man, all major forces now suspect that he has been transformed into a saint, but with Song Xiaoyou's reputation, they will definitely not dare to take action directly."
"Coupled with the support of my Shushan Sword Sect, it can also intimidate some young people. And Xiaoyou Song is not even afraid of Mu Changge, so how can he be afraid of those who secretly try to take away his fortune?"
When a saint dies, there are nine points in creation. There are nine people in the world today who have obtained it, and two or three have been confirmed.
At first, the Song Dynasty magistrate recited the Dao of the University and aroused the sound of heaven and earth, which also attracted attention, but no one confirmed it, but it is different now. The battle of Yucheng directly entered the Confucian gentleman realm, which has led many people to believe that this person has obtained the saint.
good fortune.
And saints can be killed and captured, so Song Zhishu was coveted by many people.
Human hearts are evil, sometimes worse than monsters.
In this regard, Shushan Sword Sect could not do anything.
At this time, Taiwei knew that he could only rely on himself for everything, and he also believed in Song Zhishu.
"I just don't know what level of saint creation that little friend Song is." The tall old man sighed slightly and couldn't help but continue: "Today's world really needs a saint."
"saint?"
Taoist priest Taiwei also fell silent.
Yes, if you want to completely eliminate demons, Confucian saints play a great role.
But how long did it take for the last saint to remain inactive? Can another saint be born in a short time?
He didn't know, but hoped so.
Fortunately, during this period of time, Confucianism has already had a group of excellent talents with good talents. As long as time is given, it will not be difficult to produce another saint in the future.
As for Song Zhishu, there is a good chance.
"Fellow Daoist Song, I will send you here."
In the Shushan Teleport Hall, Xu Changyu slightly cupped his hands with a smile on his face.
He went to Qingzhou before to deal with the demon chaos and bring Song Zhishu to Shushan.
Now that both things have been completed, there is no need to go back.
"It's okay. I'm grateful to you, Taoist friend Xu, for helping us lead the way this time."
Song Zhishu also returned the gift. The trip to Shushan had indeed brought him a lot of gains. Whether it was the trends of the major sects or the current situation in the world, it could be said to be extremely important. It also pointed out what to do next.
direction.
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Song." Xu Changyu smiled, took out a space formation stone, embedded it on the high platform, and then spoke.
"As long as the teleportation array is activated, fellow Taoist will be able to return to Qingzhou soon. I am here to wish you a smooth and prosperous path to immortality and a long and prosperous life."
Although he had only been in contact with Song Zhishu for a short time, he could see that his character was excellent in all aspects, and maybe the two parties would see each other again in the near future.
"Thank you Daoist Xu."
Song Zhishu nodded and walked onto the high platform without saying anything else.
Xu Changyu, on the other hand, put his fingers together and muttered something in his mouth.
In an instant, bursts of light surged in the teleportation hall, and runes emerged one by one.
Song Zhishu was located in it, and soon he saw that everything in front of him had disappeared, just like when he came. After waiting for a while, he found that he was already in the teleportation hall of Qingzhou.
"The Sichuan-Sichuan Ancient Territory is an independent space. I am afraid that without the teleportation formation, ordinary monks will not be able to reach it."
With a laugh, Song Zhishu raised his feet, left the teleportation hall, and returned to the inn.
Close the door and sit cross-legged on the bed.
He first meditated and adjusted his breath for a while, and then began to think about everything he knew today.
"Integrating the forces of the sects in the world and establishing an alliance of casual cultivators are both big things, but if you want to do it, it is not that simple. The alliance of casual cultivators may not be anything. Senior Sword Madman is in charge, and there are various major sects
With the sect taking the lead, it should be completed soon, but if you want all the sects in the world to follow the same decision and share resources, I'm afraid it won't be that simple."
Song Zhishu murmured to himself that even if there were no monsters, there would always be friction between the major sects. It is very difficult to completely abandon the past grudges, especially in terms of resources that need to be allocated. No one can
Not willing.
But now that the top sects in the world have made their decisions, those small forces can only obey in the end.
If you choose to resist, I'm afraid there will be a big fuss.
More importantly.
The person responsible for the integration of the world's sects this time is Mu Changge.
Song Zhishu knew Mu Changge very well. When he made a decision, he would not hesitate at all. He had iron-blooded skills. If someone did not obey, he would directly choose to take action. Outside of Yucheng, the other party would not give the devil anything.
Any chance.
In particular, the other party is so powerful that Taoist Taiwei, the headmaster of Shushan Sword Sect, calls him the best of the younger generation.
Perhaps in the next period of time, in addition to demon incidents, the human race will also begin to experience internal turmoil.
Regarding the establishment of the casual cultivator alliance, each top sect will also send corresponding candidates.
Everything is telling that the situation in the future will be very chaotic.
"We haven't seen the great chaos yet, but the battle between the major forces has already begun to take shape. After the integration of the world's sects, who will be the leader? Where should the loose cultivator alliance go? And once the power of the world's sects are all twisted into one
Rope, how should the Zhou Dynasty, as the co-owner of the world, deal with itself?" The more Song Zhishu thought about it, the more confused he felt.
Because there are too many things going on, there is no real leader, because chaos is the prerequisite.
But the key is that everyone has their own ideas. Who can achieve unity?
Unless there is a strong man who is convinced by everyone in the world today.
But unfortunately not.
"Perhaps, the saint's incarnation and suppression of the great world for a period of time are not only targeting the demons, but also the human race." Song Zhishu suddenly thought that there was indeed such a person who could convince all the forces, and that was the Confucian saint.
Not only because of his strength, but also because of his merits as a saint.
Now that the saint has passed away, no one can suppress the world anymore.
"Saint?"
Song Zhishu murmured to himself, understanding that in this situation, the situation on the human side would be very bad.
Even if the demon catastrophe is successfully prevented in the end, a heavy price will be paid.
If you want to control this, you have to do something.
And what can I do?
Song Zhishu was thinking, it was difficult to find the answer, so he could only try his best.
Slowly exhaling a breath of turbid air, he cleared his distracting thoughts and no longer thought about it. Instead, he took out the jade slip given by the leader of Shushan. There was a sword technique in it, but he didn't know what kind of sword technique it was.
clear.
"Shushan is the oldest swordsmanship sect, and its sword techniques are also world-famous. There are many that rival the three major sword techniques of Taihao Sword Sect."
Song Zhishu looked at the jade slip and murmured to himself, with a hint of curiosity in his expression.
I have already made my way to use the sword as a weapon. From now on, I will naturally focus on practicing sword techniques, and I am naturally interested in the sword techniques of Shushan.
Immediately, he calmed down and then exerted slight pressure on his palms.
Click.
The jade slip was shattered, and lines of text emerged from it, pouring into Song Zhishu's brows.
These words were the same as the previous Great Dream Immortal Slaying Jue, full of strong sword intent, but the difference was that from these words, he could feel a powerful aura of righteousness and yang, which seemed to be able to destroy everything.
Evil.
At the same time, Zhishu Song saw the name of this sword art.
【Sword Art of Conquering Demons】
"It's actually one of the seven most powerful sword techniques of the Shushan Sword Sect?"
When he saw the text, a look of astonishment suddenly appeared in his eyes.
This Demon-Suppressing Divine Sword Technique is one of the best sword techniques in the world. It is no worse than the Great Dream Killing Immortal Technique. In Shushan, only true disciples can practice it. Now, the leader of Shushan actually gave it to him.
Is it just to thank you for joining the Sanxiu Alliance on behalf of Shushan?
Song Zhishu knew that it was not that simple. There was also the flavor of getting closer and forming a good relationship.
Just like when Headmaster Taihao had the same idea of giving the sword secret as a gift, it was obvious that Shushan valued him more than imagined.
And adding the Dameng Immortal Slaying Jue means that he has two completely different top sword techniques in his hands?
Originally, Zhishu Song was still thinking about how to increase his attack methods after reaching the Dan Formation Realm.
Now this Enchanted Divine Sword Technique has basically completely solved these concerns.
only.
The price of Shushan is quite high.
"It seems that in the next period of time, I have to find a way to practice these two sword arts to the basic level. In this way, my strength will be improved again." Song Zhishu said to himself, no matter what the situation of the human race will be in the future, because Shushan
As for the headmaster, he knows that there will be more and more chaos in the future, especially with demons sneaking into various places, and they may encounter them soon.
In this case, you must find a way to make yourself stronger in the shortest possible time.
But he did not choose to practice cultivation immediately, but suppressed this idea for the time being.
His mind moved slightly.
Song Zhishu appears in the second level of the Confucian Sage Immortal Tower.
On top of that, there is the last jade box, surrounded by light.
He wanted to open the jade box before, but was interrupted. Now that there is nothing else to do, it is natural to start. Besides, Song Zhishu still wants to know what is going on in the third level of the Immortal Tower.
At this moment, there are still seven hundred Confucian righteousness in his body, because he had to upgrade the Saint Sword Embryo before and condensed ten great righteousness.
To open the fourth jade box, five hundred steps are needed, which is enough.
immediately.
He inspired Confucian righteousness and injected it into it.
Buzz buzz.
The next moment, the jade box began to shake, waves of brilliant light continued to surge, and powerful aura surged.
After a while, as the jade box exploded, Song Zhishu only saw a black writing brush floating in it. The whole body of the writing brush was made of jade and exuded a dense glow, but other than that, there was nothing special about it.
And it was at this time that a piece of information also poured into his mind.
【Spring and Autumn Pen】
In the void, with He Haoran's righteousness, he can write with three thousand divine characters, in compliance with the will of heaven and earth. With the writing of a saint, one word can determine life and death, one word can make the sun and moon flow, command mountains and rivers, and rewrite the general trend of heaven and earth.
There was not much joy, but after Song Zhishu knew its function, a look of shock appeared in his eyes.
This Spring and Autumn Writing Brush does not belong to any magic weapon, but a Confucian cultural treasure, and its power increases with the level of Confucianism.
As mentioned above, a sage's writing determines life and death with just one word.
certainly.
The current Song Zhishu cannot achieve this level at all, but the key is that it can be used in conjunction with the three thousand divine inscriptions.
"Doesn't that mean that even if I can't use gems, I can still write divine inscriptions on the void and then show the corresponding power."
Previously, Song Zhishu had obtained three thousand divine inscriptions, which were basically only used to engrave precious jade. In fact, the divine inscriptions did not play their true role. In addition to his own weak cultivation, another point was that the power in the divine inscriptions could not be controlled.
Just like ordinary low-grade jade, it cannot withstand the power of divine writings.
But now that I have a Chunqiu pen, it's completely different.
Thinking of this, Song Zhishu opened his eyes, his mind moved slightly, and the Spring and Autumn Brush appeared in his hand. Then after thinking for a while, he injected a righteousness into it, and then wrote the word "Shield" in the void.
Buzz.
The word 'shield' in the void immediately emitted a blazing light.
The next moment, a simple round shield appeared in front of him, but the difference was that this shield completely enveloped Song Zhishu, leaving nothing missing from all directions, but it did not block his sight or his soul.
Seeing this, Song Zhishu took out the sage sword body and lightly scratched it, but it didn't leave any mark.
This actually surprised him. Although he did not use magic power, the current Saint Sword Embryo is a top-quality spiritual weapon. Even defensive magic weapons of the same level cannot block it and will leave traces.
But the shield formed by the word "shield" has such an effect.
"Come to think of it, the real function of the three thousand divine inscriptions is not to be engraved on jade, but to be written with the Spring and Autumn Pen to show the true power." Song Zhishu regained his awe-inspiring righteousness, and then began to think.
The function of the Spring and Autumn Brush is very clear. It can make mountains and rivers change, and the sun and moon flow. This is no longer something ordinary people can do.
Even powerful monks still need to cooperate with magical powers.
But in Chunqiu's writing, it may be just a word, or a sentence.
"The Sage Sword Embryo, Three Thousand Divine Inscriptions, and the Portrait of Mencius. I wonder how many more surprises this Confucian Sage Immortal Tower can bring me." Song Zhishu was looking forward to the jade box he would open later.
So he calmed down his mind again and entered the Confucian Sage Immortal Tower.
The light curtain that blocked him from going to the third level disappeared, and Song Zhishu walked directly up.
The third level of the Immortal Tower is no different from the previous two levels, but the difference is that there are a total of five jade boxes in it, one more than the second level.
After a little perception, I immediately knew that in order to open the first jade box on the third level of the Confucian Sage Immortal Tower, one must have a thousand Confucian righteousness, which is twice as much as the last jade box on the second level.
A thousand ways.
Song Zhishu was a little helpless.
Back then, under Yucheng, Confucian righteousness was simply inexhaustible.
But it’s okay. There are still many ways to gain Confucian righteousness in the future, so don’t rush it.
Immediately, Song Zhishu opened his eyes again, familiarized himself with the Spring and Autumn Brush, and after transforming all the remaining Confucianism and Taoism righteousness into twenty strands of Haoran righteousness, there were now thirty strands of Haoran righteousness in his body.
Haoran's righteousness is very important to one's own practice, and it is also an indispensable means to fight against the enemy.
Now there is still a lot needed to open the first jade box of the third level.
Just condense it directly into Haoran Zhengqi.
Because the next goal is to reach the middle stage of pill formation.
Song Zhishu knew that news about the establishment of the Loose Cultivator Alliance would come out soon, and there would definitely be more things to do by then.
He actually doesn't have much interest in the so-called position of alliance leader, but it is related to the stability among the major forces in the future. Just as the headmaster of Shushan said, once a casual cultivator is controlled by an ambitious sect,
This force will undoubtedly affect the balance of the world.
Therefore, Song Zhishu also had to fight for this position.
Not only to stabilize the human race internally.
What's more important is that after becoming the leader of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, I will be qualified to truly do something for this world.
Of course, before that, you must have enough strength.
So after that, Song Zhishu sat up cross-legged and began to practice. He still had a thousand Hunyuan Pills in his hand, which was estimated to be enough to reach the middle stage of the Dan-Jie realm.
In this way, he didn't go anywhere for the next time. He stayed in the inn room and refined the Hunyuan Pill.
Fortunately, there is great righteousness in the body, which can speed up the refining process without having to worry about erysipelas.
More than half a month passed in a flash.
This time.
In Yunlingzhai's room, Song Zhishu opened his eyes.
The next moment, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continued to gather around him, pouring into his pores.
The body surface is surrounded by layers of radiance, which looks very dazzling, especially the aura exuding from his body at this moment is extremely thick.
"Is the elixir formation in the middle stage?" Song Zhishu felt the increased magic power in his body, and a smile appeared on his face.
In the middle stage of pill formation, compared to the early stage of pill formation, not only is the mana more powerful, but because of the huge gathering of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, even the body's physical strength has been strengthened a bit. Compared with the foundation building stage, the cultivation level in the pill formation stage has been improved in all aspects.
And as his cultivation level increased, he could also feel that his strength had also greatly improved.
Not to mention anything else, the mana alone is more than double what it was before.
"Sure enough, the closer you get to the end of your practice, the greater the changes will be. I just don't know what the words in the inner elixir actually mean." Song Zhishu was still concerned that after the elixir was formed, the vague words engraved on it still showed no abnormalities until now.
This is what happens after oneself clearly realizes the "Supreme Good" and embarks on the path of perfect cultivation.
There used to be Confucian white lotus, which could store mana.
But those words.
Regarding this, Song Zhishu could only shake his head, maybe it was not the right time.
"I have been in seclusion for more than half a month, and I need to go out for a walk."
Without further contemplation, Song Zhishu stood up directly. He had been in seclusion for a while, and no one knew what was going on outside. I guess the news about the establishment of the Loose Cultivator Alliance should have spread out.
After tidying up, he was about to leave the room.
But as soon as he opened the door, he found two figures walking towards him. They were also stunned, and they immediately cupped their hands slightly: "Mr. Song."
They are Cheng Hong, the dean of Qingzhou Academy, and his disciple Chen Jingyun.
Seeing this, Song Zhishu returned the courtesy slightly.
Then without saying anything else, he directly invited the teacher and student in.
After not seeing each other for a while, Chen Jingyun's cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building. Obviously, the reward from the Battle of Yucheng has given him great benefits. Another point is that the opponent's cultivation in Confucianism is still in the realm of knowledge.
But the difference is that Song Zhishu can now clearly feel that in a while, Chen Jingyun will enter the state of knowledge and practice.
"Congratulations to Mr. Song for entering the Confucian gentleman realm. He is indeed a formidable person. Now Mr. Song is in the same realm as me."
After sitting down, Cheng Hong, the dean of the academy, spoke first, with a little sigh in his eyes.
The other party has only entered the realm of knowledge and practice for a few months, and now he has directly entered the realm of the gentleman. How can he not feel emotional?
At such a fast speed, he was almost certain that Song Zhishu's Confucian talent was absolutely terrifying, because Confucian practice is different from Immortal practice. In Immortal practice, if one's cultivation is insufficient, resources can be piled up, regardless of foundation and own strength.
, but cultivation will definitely grow in a short period of time.
But what about Confucianism? There are no shortcuts at all.
So if you want to reach the next state, you must rely on enlightenment.
If you don't realize it, it's not uncommon to be trapped in one realm for your whole life.
Although Confucianism and Taoism are no longer suppressed, the growth rate of Song Zhishu is indeed fast enough.
At least, it was enough to shock Cheng Hong.
"Scholars do not regard their realm as a level. Those who have attained it are their teachers. Mr. Cheng said this, I am afraid that it offends me." Song Zhishu smiled and did not feel anything wrong. On the contrary, he was as humble as before.
A high level does not necessarily mean you know much. Just like Cheng Hong, the dean of the academy, he has taught countless people and deserves respect.
"Mr. Song is right, I made a mistake myself." Cheng Hong was stunned and nodded.
Not to mention anything else, this attitude alone is enough to make people respect him.
Chen Jingyun smiled beside him.
He had been in contact with Song Zhishu for a longer period of time, so he naturally understood him better. He understood that the other party was proud but not arrogant. Otherwise, he would not have stayed with his group until the end in Yucheng.
"I wonder what Mr. Cheng is here for?"
Song Zhishu poured a cup of tea for each of them, and then asked.
"I wonder if Mr. Song knows about the Longyuan Conference?" Cheng Hong did not beat around the bush and explained directly: "The Longyuan Conference will be held soon, and the location is set to be in Yunzhou. This Longyuan Conference will be hosted by Southern Confucianism.
People from all major sects will attend my Confucian grand conference. As a scholar, Mr. Song is appreciated by Southern Confucianists. I believe he will also set off to attend the Longyuan Conference, right?"
Hearing this, Song Zhishu immediately realized that Confucian Guyun had also reminded him before that he hoped to participate in the Longyuan Conference.
However, after arriving in Qingzhou, various things happened one after another. I was distracted for a while and forgot about this matter.
So after Cheng Hong spoke, he immediately nodded: "Not bad."
The great Confucian scholar Gu Yun can be regarded as a guide in his practice of Confucianism, so he will naturally go to the Longyuan Conference.
And soon, Song Zhishu looked at the other party again and continued: "I know that scholars in the world are divided into various major schools, but I don't know the details. I only know about the Southern Confucian school, but I don't know what other schools are like. I can trouble you, Mr. Cheng Hong.
Give me some pointers."
Like all major sects, although practitioners follow the same path, they are divided into sects.
The biggest difference between the various schools of Confucianism is actually the concept.
But Song Zhishu didn't understand what the difference was.
As the dean of Qingzhou Academy, the other party naturally knew this very well, so he asked for advice.
Since I am going to attend the Longyuan Conference in the future, I must understand it clearly.
"nature."
Cheng Hong thought for a moment, and then spoke again: "Since the first great saint in heaven and earth, who pioneered the path of Confucianism and Taoism and taught all peoples, seven more saints have appeared, and these eight saints have each
He created a school of thought, and now there are eight schools of Confucianism. The Southern Confucianists practice Yuan Sheng’s way. Yuan Sheng is the second saint, with the status of semi-sage, and comes from Nanzhou, so it is also called Southern Confucianism. In addition, there are
There are Northern Confucians who describe the saints, and there are seven major schools in total.”
"These schools of thought have different ideas, but without exception, they all respect the sage."
Song Zhishu nodded. As the first great sage, the Lisheng, just like Confucius, cannot be circumvented. Not recognizing the Lisheng is equivalent to not recognizing Confucianism. Thinking of this, he raised his head and spoke again:
"I have heard that the Southern Confucian school is now in decline, but I don't know which school is the most powerful now?"
Cheng Hong nodded, acknowledging the weakness of Southern Confucianism, and explained at the same time: "Yuan Sheng is the second saint, who talks about putting people first and becoming a saint. However, because of the age, this generation has not produced a saint. As time goes by,
The concept of Yuan Sheng is rarely mentioned."
"As for the one with the strongest momentum now, it is naturally the saint who was enthroned not long ago. The saint's original surname is Zong, so he is also respected as Zongsheng. The school is also called Zongsheng. It is different from the Southern and Northern schools. I belong to Zongsheng.
One lineage.”
Sure enough, the more recent a saint is, the more he is remembered.
What's more, the sage also made great contributions to the human race, and the theories he created are naturally recognized by more people.
Li Sheng represents Confucianism in this world because it cannot be bypassed, but Yuan Sheng is a semi-sage because too much time has passed. Compared to Zong Sheng, the most recent saint, his influence is indeed insufficient.
"I see, I was taught by the great Confucian scholar Gu Yun, so now I should belong to the Southern Confucian school, right?"
After understanding this, Song Zhishu spoke up, after all, the matter was so big in the first place.
There is no difference between the various Confucian universities for the immortal monks, but for scholars, this is not the case. The battle of ideas is sometimes more fierce than the battle of life and death.
"good."
Cheng Hong answered and then continued: "And this is why I came today."
