"Like the wind...like the waves...like the sea and the abyss...in this world, everyone is really trying their best, and no one knows who the winner is until the end."
Dongfang Mu stood on the highest floor of his earthen castle and looked at the distant scenery.
The rising sun is like a red egg yolk, tender, round and yellow. Everyone who sees it wants to take a bite.
But no one who dares to bite him is simple.
"Teacher, isn't it inappropriate for me to rashly associate with the Immortal Temple now?"
Behind Dongfang Mu, a row of male and female disciples in different clothes stood straight.
Some of these disciples were dressed as old farmers, some were dressed as wealthy businessmen, and some were dressed as ordinary singers. There were about ten of them in total, and they seemed to come from all walks of life.
But everyone looked at Dongfang Mu with sincerity and worry in their eyes.
What worries me is whether the teacher's body can recover after being injured.
"The Immortal Temple... will inevitably be targeted by gods, Buddhas, and all religions. It is a natural ally of ours. Moreover, their temple master saved my life. They must treat each other with courtesy and sincerity, both emotionally and rationally.
." Dongfang Mu coughed a few times, turned around and sighed.
"Now that things have come to this, it is time for Confucianism to reappear in the world."
"Now that the world is in turmoil, the people are in dire straits, and all evils are rising in all places, it is time for us to save the people from fire and water and win the hearts and minds of the people. The view of human beings and immortals can also be used as a focus to attract the attention of gods and Buddhas and cover us up."
Dongfang Mu said in a deep voice.
"Is other people's view of immortality so strong?" A disciple frowned and questioned.
"No." Dongfang Mu smiled, "But there are people behind the master of Renxian Temple."
Suddenly his expression moved slightly and he waved his hand.
"Okay, let's all go down.
"Yes." All the disciples saluted Dongfang Mu and then left.
Shortly after the group left, a tall and strong figure slowly came in from the door. It was Zhang Rongfang wearing a black brocade robe.
After wearing Taoist robes for a long time, he was still a little uncomfortable with suddenly changing into ordinary clothes.
Dongdongdong. Zhang Rongfang stood at the door and knocked.
"Please come in." Dongfang Mu showed a gentle smile on his face.
"Mr. Dongfang, I talked about Confucian martial arts the day before yesterday. I talked about half of it, but I haven't explained the follow-up yet. Zhang has a lot of doubts in his mind. I wonder if you can answer some questions?"
Zhang Rongfang himself was originally from a Confucian family and had some understanding of Confucianism.
Nowadays, Confucianism, which was originally thought to have been abolished, suddenly appears as a hidden great master.
This is a bit exaggerated.
He suddenly wanted to find out how much strength Confucianism still hid.
Moreover, what is the relationship between Confucian martial arts and the extreme realm? This is what he wants to understand.
"I have somewhat guessed the purpose of the temple master's visit." Dongfang Mu said with a smile, "But yesterday, the two members of the Counter-Time Meeting were present, so they deliberately changed the topic. Now, there are only you and me, both of us. That's right.
Not much scruples.”
"Sir, do you also know Zhang's background?" Zhang Rongfang was surprised.
"The master has never concealed his appearance, and he often goes in and out of some mansions in the city, so it's hard not to know." Dongfang Mu replied.
"That's true." Zhang Rongfang nodded, "Now that my master has entered Dadu, I wonder what the situation is now? What are the plans for Confucianism?"
"If you are successful, you can help the world; if you are poor, you can help yourself. Now that all the people in the world are suffering, we can just do what we can do." Dongfang Mu seemed to have answered, but there was no content.
Zhang Rongfang added: "Since you don't want to mention it, let's talk about Confucian martial arts and the extreme realm. What I'm curious about is that my husband mentioned before that the extreme realm seems to originate from Confucianism? I don't know what you mean?"
"Extreme Realm can be regarded as a model of taking different paths to the extreme." Dongfang Mu sighed. "But the most fundamental source is still the core of my Confucianism-pure heart for jade."
"How do you say this?" Zhang Rongfang was very interested in this kind of thing involving the principles of martial arts.
The prerequisite for taking advantage of the enemy is to first understand the opponent's martial arts principles, and then observe the opponent's thinking set and muscle memory, so as to achieve an instant and absolute prediction effect.
He now has a deep understanding of it.
Therefore, the more he knows about unknown and novel martial arts, it will also be of great benefit to him to gain an advantage against enemies.

"The master of the temple is also one of our own, so I won't be secretive." Dongfang Mu smiled slightly, "The key to exchanging a pure heart for jade is that you must first have a pure heart before you can exchange for jade. A gentleman wears jade, cultivates jade, and obtains jade.
Only then can our hearts and jade be united and we can be sincere and consistent.”
"As for how to purify the heart, our Confucianism has its own set of methods for cultivating the heart. Benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, and trust, these are the five principles of our Confucianism. They originated from Confucius and extended to Dong Zhongshu and Mencius. Nowadays, they refer to the five lines of our Confucianism.
The principles of each lineage are very different.
We are sincere to ourselves and to others. The seemingly numerous principles we follow are actually all for one thing. That is to be sincere in our hearts."
"So what is jade? Why should we change it to jade?" Zhang Rongfang asked again. "What is the relationship between pure heart and extreme realm?"
"Jade is something you want to get. Anyone who has something beautiful in your heart and wants to get it can be regarded as jade.
In the long river of life, there are always many people who can jump out of the river, look up ahead and look back behind. Jade may be in front of you or behind you." Dongfang Mu replied.
"Exchange a pure heart for jade. If it succeeds, you will reach the state of perfection. If it fails, you can still walk firmly and step into the path of sincerity. And the ultimate state is like this. With a pure heart, you can pursue infinite jade that cannot be satisfied, but this
It’s not the right path. It’s the evil path that mainly overdraws one’s self.”
When Zhang Rongfang heard this, he realized something.
There is also Confucius and Mencius in this world, which he did not expect. By this time, he had regarded the development of the Great Spirit as more of another historical branch of the previous life.
"What is Mr. Dongfang's jade? Can you tell me?" he suddenly asked again.
"My jade... is to re-establish Confucianism." Dongfang Mu replied seriously. "My little friend may not have noticed yet, but your jade has now taken shape."
"My jade..." Zhang Rongfang began to think in his mind.
Nowadays, if there is one thing he wants to get but cannot reach.
Then there is only one - to become a perfect human being!
Now he has opened two blood lotuses and condensed the three flowers twice. He is still short of the last one to achieve the three-flower gathering.
Tong Yuan's talent can also be used to do things. What Master Yue is doing now, if he succeeds, he will definitely reach the sky in one step.
If defeated...
He also has to be prepared for this.

Most.
A huge army like a black cloud besieged the capital.
The entire metropolis was in all directions, and since there was no city wall protection, people and horses from both sides gathered together, covering the sky with flags, forming two huge circles, one black and one red.
Black on the outside and red on the inside.
Yuchi Hongshan stood in the middle of the military formation, juxtaposed with Yue Dewen, Kosiwo and other spiritual generals, overlooking the capital.
Until now, his mind is in chaos
What happened before?
Why did the million-strong army suddenly give up resistance?
Why was General Mu Li standing next to him, chatting and laughing with him and others?
Kosivo is a great enemy, so why is he having a pleasant conversation with Yue Dewen at this time?
Fortunately, what the others want is not him as a person, but his name. So no one cares what he thinks at this time.
"The stubborn resisters in the city are nothing more than the dozen or so nobles from the Ling family. The Feng Ling Army and the Weaving Elephant Army are still halfway there. It's too late now."
Yue Dewen pinched his beard and looked into the distance.
"We must work hard together without any delay."
"What's going on at the palace? What's the response?" Kosivo asked.
"No one of them came out, they are still waiting." Yue Dewen looked calm. "They are calculating, we are also calculating, and everyone in the world is also calculating. Who wins and who loses cannot be determined in one moment."
With a sigh, he turned around and looked at the many spirit generals riding behind him, waiting for battle.
Dao Dao Sect, Zhenyi Sect, Thousand Religious Alliance, Religious Alliance, Tiansuo Sect, Black Ten Sect... The spiritual generals of many sects gathered together, and with the help of the momentum of the army, the aura of gods and Buddhas loomed.
At this time, over the area where the general is located, there is a faint invisible air current rotating, surrounding, and penetrating the clouds in the sky. It is obviously cloudy today. Correct update@But above the army, there is always a small area, forming a hole.
"Gentlemen, success or failure depends on this one move."
Yue Dewen slowly raised his hand, made a fist with five fingers, and opened it.
"war!!!"
.

He roared suddenly.
"Fight!!" the nearby military formation shouted.
"Fight!!" The military formations in the distance were stacked up, raising their troops and roaring.
"war!!!!"
All the generals roared in unison.
As the war drums rose, the sound waves spread rapidly in all directions as if they were contagious.
A circle of soldiers shouted in unison.
Wave after wave of sound was like a tsunami, crashing into the remnants of Dadu's defense.
The garrison was simply a garrison put together by more than a dozen great spiritual nobles who plundered private soldiers and servants.
At this time, they were hit by the huge sound, and everyone turned pale and felt numb all over.
Some people even dropped their weapons and shields to the ground without noticing.
Some people squatted down and cried bitterly, and some even closed their eyes and lowered their heads to recite sacred and Buddhist scriptures.
Areas and even formations began to collapse in disorder, revealing little gaps in the red patches.
"I am Yue Dewen, the Great Dao! Today, I shall carry out the way of heaven, protect the new emperor by upholding the principles of justice, and bring order to the world of chaos!!"
Yue Dewen roared angrily, and the sound waves were mixed among the many noises, and it was actually clearly audible.
In an instant, the war drums beat rapidly, and military formations were uniformly approaching the capital city.
The siege machinery was preparing to loosen the ropes and drop huge rocks.
Tens of thousands of archers began to string their bows, raise their bows, and raise their bows to the sky.
"kill!!!"
Like an explosion, countless black clouds suddenly swarmed towards the capital in all directions.
"Why is this so? In this world, why can't everyone sit down and have a serious talk? Why... fight?"
In the distance of the battlefield, an elite black-armored army protects the center.
Sitting on the chariot was a young man with a gentle temperament and a handsome face.
His location was at a high point where he could overlook the battlefield.
At this moment, looking at the chaotic and terrifying fighting in the distance, a blush appeared on his fair cheeks unconsciously.
"If we sit down and talk, we can reset the world. How can there be so many sacrifices in this world?" A guard in golden armor stood beside him, his whole body covered in helmet and armor, and his face could not be seen clearly.
"Your Majesty, you must understand the painstaking efforts of Master Yue and others." The guard replied calmly.
"What about Brother Wang and the others? If they capture Dadu, what will happen to Brother Wang and the others?" the gentle man asked.
He is one of the five kings supported by the Taoist Sect and the Induction Sect - King Dongping.
The guard didn't answer, just remained silent.
But silence is the best answer.
King Dongping sighed, showing his unbearable expression. "If possible...can you give up the throne to Master Yue?"
"The throne of the emperor cannot be held by anyone but a spiritual person. Your Majesty, be careful what you say." The guards around him were all startled and hurriedly warned him.
"From the very beginning, I did not want to be a spiritual emperor..." King Dongping shook his head helplessly.
"But..." He didn't say much more about the next words, but everyone guessed the meaning.
