Chapter 360 The three emperors meet, the emperor asks the heart
Fuxi and Kongqiu had important things to do and could not stay for a long time. They bid farewell to Nuwa and entered Daluotian. They waited for the announcement outside Miluo Palace. After a while, two emperors came out of Miluo Palace and walked along the way.
It seemed that the conversation was very appropriate and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Fuxi looked at the two of them. Although his expression was still gentle, his heart couldn't help but sink: "Di Hong, Ao Yi, how could they get together?"
Di Hong and the other two also saw Fu Xi. After walking in, the four of them nodded. They had similar identities and belonged to different races. They only needed a simple greeting.
"I haven't seen Emperor Xi for a long time. I miss you very much. Are you here to pay your respects to His Majesty for the first time as the Human Emperor?"
Di Hong's voice was unhurried and contained a touch of majesty. It reminded Fu Xi of the former Emperor Jun. The two were really similar in some aspects, such as their personalities, ambitions, methods, etc.
And the word "Xihuang" caused ripples in Fuxi's heart. This long-standing title evoked memories in his heart. The former Xihuang and the current Human Emperor were the same emperor, but they had different identities, representing something different.
That is his position.
"His Majesty the Demon Emperor shall be called Fuxi Human Emperor from now on. Emperor Xi is an unforgettable time long ago, but it has passed after all. What has passed away, let it disperse with the wind. Seize the present and create the future, you are our emperor.
The mission of the leader is also the original intention of His Majesty in establishing the Five Emperors!"
A trace of gloom flashed in Di Hong's eyes, and the last trace of hope in his heart dissipated. The smile on his face was still there, but it gave people an inexplicable edge. "In this case, I wish the Emperor good luck. I hope the Emperor can really seize the moment."
, Otherwise, there will be no future to create.”
Ao Yi's smile was light and his expression was calm, still as before, like the water of the East China Sea. Behind the calmness was an unfathomable ocean, making it difficult to see what was going on.
At this time, Taibai Jinxing announced Fu Xi and Confucius came to see him. Ao Yi said: "Your Majesty has announced the summons. Your Majesty, the Human Emperor, should not delay. Ao Yi has taken the first step."
Fuxi's attitude towards Ao Yi was very kind. He smiled and said warmly: "Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, please."
The four people passed by each other. Fuxi and Kongqiu followed Taibai Jinxing into the Taiji Hall of Miluo Palace to pay their respects, while Dihong and Ao Yi left Miluo Palace.
"Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, the Human Emperor and Confucius came hand in hand. Gu Huang guessed that it was for the unification of the Hongmeng Purple Qi. The human race is already the protagonist of the world. If we add another saint, our strength will skyrocket. You and I want to overwhelm the human race.
, the competition for the new protagonist of the world will become more difficult in the next tribulation. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Ao Yi smiled lightly and said: "Even if Confucius is not allowed to become a saint and we compete for the title role in the world in the next calamity, our Dragon Clan will have little chance of winning. Your Majesty, you should know that Saint Yinglong suffered unfair treatment back then, and there was quite a lot of resentment among the He clan. If the Dragon Clan
If he encounters a disaster, he will definitely protect him. But it will be difficult for him to take the initiative to help the Dragon Clan fight for hegemony. Zhenwu Saint is a Saint of the Turtle Clan after all. Even if he is on good terms with the Dragon Clan and helps each other, it does not mean that the Dragon Clan’s wishes are his.
Will.”
Di Hong frowned and thought, of course he knew the grudge between Yinglong and the Dragon Clan. Due to the change in Yinglong's bloodline, he was born very strangely and became the only dragon with two wings on his back. Moreover, as a Dragon Clan, he majored in the path of earth, becoming
The Dragon of Si Tu suppressed all the magical powers of the Water Tribe, and was ostracized by the Pure Dragon Tribe. After being suppressed, he left the Dragon Tribe alone and settled in the fierce plow mounds in the northwest.
However, he also avoided the competition among the three clans for hegemony. Not only did he survive safely, but he was also not affected by his karma because he was separated from the dragon clan. After being subdued by the Emperor of Heaven, his cultivation level increased all the way, and he soon became the number one master of the dragon clan.
When Zifuzhou attacked the Dragon Clan, Yinglong also participated in it, which shows the status of the Dragon Clan in his heart. It is not impossible for Ao Yi to say this.
"However, it may also be her excuse. After all, we have been ministers of the same palace for countless years, and we are both dragons. Even the feud between dragon and phoenix has gradually dissipated. There is no reason for us to hold grudges like this. After all, the people who suppressed Yinglong at that time are
Most of the old dragons have passed away."
Although Di Hong was unwilling to do so, he could not force him to do what Ao Yi said, so he had to temporarily suppress his thoughts and think of new interests to win over more allies.
Fuxi and Confucius entered the Tai Chi Hall, bowed and explained their intention.
On the dragon chair carved with the image of Pangu opening the sky, all spirits worshiping, and nine dragons coiled around each other, there is a black and white, intertwined primitive ancestral Qi gathering and dispersing uncertainly, dim and formless, representing the beginning of the Tao.
Beginning, the source of law.
Through the five-color bead curtain hanging down the stairs, even with Fuxi's cultivation, it is difficult to see the changing pattern of Tuan Zuqi. He can only perceive the mysterious and unpredictable Taoist rhyme and spread of principles. Even if he cannot understand it, it is different from his own.
The rules of virtual cultivation are also different, but all methods lead to the same goal through different paths. When reaching a high level, one method encompasses all methods, and Fuxi Dao still interacts with each other. Wisdom shines, and one can comprehend the mysteries of many ways in an instant, as if they were elusive and unattainable in the past.
The way is clearly shown in front of him.
At this time, he could finally understand the behavior of saints rushing to open a dojo in the Holy Heaven of Mingluan. If it were him, he would definitely do the same thing immediately.
"When I gave Kunpeng's Hongmeng Purple Qi to Confucius, I said that no matter who of you two becomes a saint, you can make your own decision. Since it has been confirmed that Confucius will become a saint, I will take it as my own."
Back then, Hou Tu cut off the Hongmeng Purple Qi in order to weaken the power of the Heavenly Saint. After all, in terms of strength, the three Supreme Beings were still inferior to one Saint.
And these three supreme beings have indeed brought huge gains to the East Prince. First, in exchange for Fuxi claiming to be the emperor, he started the ancient sacrificial ritual of the human race to enshrine Mount Tai and profess their vassalage to heaven, allowing the East Prince to steal part of the human rights from the hands of Heaven.
Complete a series of major plans, gain huge fortunes for the human race, and improve steadily.
Later, Kunpeng and Styx also helped him a lot. Without these three Hongmeng Purple Qi, he might not have achieved what he has today.
Now that even the way of heaven is under his control, the saints of heaven are no longer a problem. The three rays of Hongmeng purple energy have completed their missions. Under the entanglement of cause and effect, it is time to achieve perfection again.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Fuxi and Kongqiu were convinced, and they saw a purple energy floating silently above Fuxi's head, and then fell into Kongqiu's spiritual platform. However, he did not have the Hunyuan Dao Fruit at this time, so after the two purple energy merged, they could not
Fusion with the first purple energy that achieves perfection.
"Confucius, in your previous life, Cangjie, the emperor of history, was the historian of the Heavenly Court, and you also wrote about the Spring and Autumn Period, using history as a guide to praise and criticize Zang, making rebellious ministers and traitors fearful. I still hope that you will take up the position of the historian of the Heavenly Court!"
Confucius said: "Your Majesty has your orders, and Qiu will not respond. Qiu immediately sent the good corpse Cangjie to heaven to complete the history of heaven."
"Good!" Prince Dong praised him and said: "Confucius, your Confucianism emphasizes heaven, earth, king, relatives, and teachers. They are those who must be respected and obeyed in one's life. Among these five, I only have four.
The human race only has one 'relative'. The so-called gentleman walks in a straight line. Since you founded Confucianism, you should be a gentleman Confucian, not a villain Confucian.
Which one is more important?"
"this……"
Kongqiu and Fuxi's eyelids twitched at the same time. They didn't expect His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven to ask such a sensitive question, which goes straight to their hearts. This is not easy to answer. If you are not careful, the consequences may be serious.
"Don't hesitate and follow your heart. You should know that any lies are meaningless to me. Everyone has his own position and is loyal to his own ethnic group. This is not a sin. You don't have to worry about angering me.
I still have measure."
"Yes!" Confucius glanced at Fu Xi, with a calm expression and a firm tone: "Between Your Majesty and the human race, I am loyal to Your Majesty. Between the human race and my ministers, I am loyal to the human race."
"The same answer as Yu, but the reason is different." Duke Dong's tone was light, and there was no hint of emotion or anger: "Yu is loyal to me. On the one hand, I cultivated and promoted him, and on the other hand, it was because of the general trend. And you are loyal to me because of it.
From my true heart, but on a deeper level, I am actually loyal to my own way."
"Very good, very good! I hope that Confucianism can always be in this sincere and positive state, promoting gentleman Confucianism instead of hypocritical, pedantic, and petty Confucianism."
"If you are loyal to the human race in your heart, or are only loyal to your own interests, it means that your Confucianism, like all other schools of thought, is just a tool for you to achieve your goals, and it is not what your heart aspires to, or where the Tao lies, and you should practice it.
Never stop."
"Among the hundreds of schools of thought, except for Confucianism and Legalism, they were all founded by the Immortal School in order to get a share of the great destiny of the human race. Their purpose was impure and the Tao did not exist. They were not practicing their own Tao.
It has its form but not its spirit, so it is difficult to contain and carry the way of humanity. There are only you and me. When the school was founded, the memory has not been restored, but we follow our original intention, which is actually the root of the way."
"My question is not to embarrass you, but actually to ask whether your Taoist heart is consistent with the Confucian spirit. Is the so-called awe-inspiring aura really the most powerful, pure and vast?"
Confucius was sweating profusely on his forehead, and he passed a test silently, which might be related to whether he could successfully become a saint. Fortunately, he passed the test.
Sure enough, the voice of the Emperor of Heaven was heard again: "Sir, you have heard the Tao and practiced it diligently. You are the same on the outside, upright and upright, and practice the Tao advocated and adhered to by Confucianism. You are a true gentleman and Confucianism. Such Confucianism,
He is also qualified to be ranked alongside the Legalists."
"I also believe that people who are loyal to their own way will never allow the ideas extended by their own way to be distorted and corrupted."
Fuxi's mind relaxed. He was relieved, but also slightly disappointed, as if he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle, with mixed emotions.
Confucius practiced his own way and was loyal to his way without wavering. Between the human race and His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, he followed his own way and chose the latter, which made him, the human emperor, feel a sense of loss.
But precisely because he was loyal to his own way, without hypocrisy, and embodied the true Confucian spirit, he passed the test with the Emperor of Heaven and cleared the most difficult link in the subsequent journey to becoming a saint. Fuxi breathed a sigh of relief.
