Looking at the crowded square in the Sage Master Hall, looking at the pious, respectful, and thirsty faces, Xia Pingan seemed to have seen the scene of Confucius giving a lecture.
The Sage Master Hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone's eyes were on Xia Pingan, waiting for him to preach.
Xia Pingan's gaze once again fell on the first sentence on the most conspicuous pillar — Confucius said, "What you learn, you practice. Isn't that right? Isn't it a joy to have friends coming from afar? Isn't it a gentleman to not be enraged despite not knowing? "
This was the first sentence at the beginning of the first book in Huaxia. It was also the first sentence that passed down the entire civilization and spirit of Huaxia for thousands of years. Unfortunately, the understanding of the people of later generations, including the many textbooks, was really superficial and laughable. It had already caused many students and descendants of the Yellow Emperor to forget the true meaning of this sentence. They had forgotten what the true spirit of Confucianism was. It also caused many people to misunderstand and misinterpret Confucius. They dismissed Confucius' words and thoughts as well as the teachings of the saints as dregs.
Today, he was going to clear the name of the saints and Chinese civilization in the Sage Master Hall. He was going to let everyone understand what the true spirit of the Analects of Confucius was.
Xia Pingan took a deep breath and finally opened his mouth.
As soon as he opened his mouth on the high platform, his voice was clear and loud, spreading throughout the Sage Master Hall.
"Confucius said, 'What you learn, you practice. Isn't that right? What is the meaning of this sentence? If you want to understand the true meaning of this sentence, you have to first understand the meaning of the word 'study'. This study is the study of Confucianism. What is a Confucian? A gentleman who aspires to become a saint is a Confucian. Not a Tom, Dick, or Harry can be a Confucian. If a gentleman doesn't have this ambition, he won't be a Confucian. The Analects of Confucius is a classic of the Great Dao that Confucians study to become a saint.
There are four ways to learn the Way of the Sage. The first is to 'listen to the Way of the Sage', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see the Way ', which means' see 'the Way of the Sage, and then learn the Way of the Sage!'
"What do you mean by 'xi'? Xi (traditional Chinese) refers to the sun on the top and the bottom of the feather. The sun belongs to Yang, and the fledgling rides the Qi of Heaven and Earth to travel in the six directions. If you don't 'learn' the way of the Sage, you won't be able to ride the Qi of Heaven and Earth. "Learning" meant obtaining the body of the Divine Path, and learning the use of the Divine Path. If one did not "learn", one would not be able to "learn". If one did not "learn", one would not be able to "learn". If one did not "learn", one would not be able to "learn". This was the path to becoming a Saint.
"To 'learn' and 'learn', one must have the right time. Therefore, there is' learn and learn at the right time '. The 'right time', the right time, is not according to the right time, but according to the right time, the right time. According to the right time, one is a lowly person; according to the right time, one is a gentleman; according to the right time, one can walk the Way of the Sage. "
"Therefore, to learn and learn at the right time, isn't that right? The meaning of the first sentence of the 'Analects of Confucius' is that a gentleman hears the Way of the Sage, sees the Way of the Sage, and constantly uses the Way of the Sage as a reference to himself in reality, constantly correcting and improving himself. When the time is right, and when the time is right, one can ride the righteousness of the Heaven and Earth to travel the six directions and walk the Way of the Sage. This is the joy of a gentleman. What is the study of Confucianism? As long as one is determined to learn, even an ordinary person can become a Sage. This is the study of Confucianism, the spirit that has been passed down for a thousand years in China. Man, the heart of the Heaven and Earth, is indomitable. As long as one is determined to learn, one can become a Sage … "
As soon as Xia Pingan finished explaining the first sentence of the Analects of Confucius, his entire secret mandala shook. In the sky above the secret mandala, ten thousand rays of golden light bloomed and directly shone on Xia Pingan's body. In the golden light, ten thousand saints appeared. The heavenly rain was precious, and golden lotuses sprouted from the ground. The entire secret mandala was rumbling …
…
At the same time, on Crouching Dragon Island in the Undying Sea …
Lord Nether River had just walked out of the Myriad Treasure Hall with a face full of smiles when his secret mandala suddenly shook. As if sensing something, Lord Nether River couldn't help but look up at the sky.
The originally cloudless sky quietly split open at this moment as if a curtain had been lifted. The mighty and majestic aura of the God Realm instantly arrived. Within a radius of one million miles, there was the shadow of a Sacred Master standing there with his hands cupped together. Ten thousand saints appeared on both sides of the shadow.
Golden dragons circled in the sky, and phoenixes danced in the sky. The mighty aura of the Divine World turned into all kinds of flowers that sprinkled down from the sky. Beautiful music was born naturally in the sky, and it resounded throughout the world.
Lord Nether River was stunned. His secret mandala began to tremble before the mighty aura of the God Realm. It was like a grain of sand in the vast ocean and had the urge to submit to the ground.
The originally calm Undying Sea instantly boiled. Countless creatures at the bottom of the sea, including mermaids, aquatic beasts, dragons, snakes, fishes, and prawns, leaped out of the water, boiling and jumping, devouring the various kinds of golden petals that were sprinkling down from the sky.
Two golden petals fell from the sky and landed on True Monarch Nether River's forehead. True Monarch Nether River only felt a slight chill on his forehead and his spirit was shaken. Those petals actually gave him two points of divine power …
Huge pillars condensed from seawater rose from the sea, connecting the sky and the earth, and manifesting the appearance of the Sacred Master Hall. Golden words appeared on one of the huge pillars. Just like the words on the Realm Pearl, no one could understand them.
Under the aura of the arrival of the Divine World, numerous golden lotuses suddenly appeared on the vast and boundless sea surface. The Undying Sea seemed to have become the crystal palace of the Dragon King. The radiance of exotic and magnificent jewels and treasures were flickering everywhere.
"What's going on …"
"What's going on in the sky …"
"That's the aura of the God Realm …"
"Heavens, could it be that the true bodies of the Gods have arrived at the God Slaying Insect World …"
For a moment, countless summoners on Crouching Dragon Island flew into the sky. They were all dumbfounded. They didn't know why such a huge phenomenon suddenly appeared in the sky above the Undying Sea. Let alone seeing such a phenomenon, they had never even heard of it.
It was the same on Crouching Dragon Island. It was the same on Cloud Island tens of thousands of miles away …
Everyone was boiling.
…
At the same time, in the Sacred Master Hall of the Great Shang Kingdom's capital, Shang Capital, a golden light shone down from the sky. The Sacred Bell hanging in the Sacred Master Hall suddenly rang by itself.
"Dong … Dong …"
When the Sacred Master Hall's bell rang, the entire Shang Capital heard it.
Especially for summoners, the bell in the Sacred Master Hall seemed to have a special magic. Just by listening to the bell, a summoner's mind could instantly clear up.
The Sacred Master Hall's bell wouldn't ring unless there was a major event. Even when the Great Shang Kingdom's Emperor Beitang Zhao worshipped the heavens at the Temple of Heaven, the Sacred Master Hall's bell only rang twelve times.
However, the bell kept ringing, and soon, it had already rung twelve times.
"What's going on?" The Judgement Army's Lin Yi walked out of his office and looked in the direction of the Imperial City. When he saw the golden light descending from the sky, his face was filled with astonishment.
In the Shang Capital's East Port Inspection Department, Hua Ziqin, Situ Hua, and the others also walked out of the office building and looked in the direction of the Imperial City in astonishment.
Meanwhile, in the Imperial City, the moment the bell sounded, Beitang Zhao's figure had already instantly appeared in Sacred Master Palace. The Sacred Master of Great Shang Country's imperial family who was in charge of Sacred Master Palace was an old man with white hair and a white beard. He also had an expression of shock, excitement, and a bit of confusion as he stood under the great bell tower. His entire body was trembling. He raised his head, looking at the great bell that rang under the illumination of golden light.
"Sir, what's going on?" Beitang Zhao asked.
"This is … Sacred Master … Sacred Master … A true Sacred Master … has appeared … The Divine Realm has sensed it … The Sacred Bell is ringing …"
"A true Sacred Master? What does that mean?"
"Your Majesty, I don't know either. There's a legend among the Sacred Masters. It's said that when a true Sacred Master appears, he could impart knowledge to all the realm pearls and the Sacred Bell will ring by itself …" The Sacred Master of the Great Shang Kingdom explained as if he was going to go into shock.
"What?" Beitang Zhao was also shocked. If there was such a Sacred Master, didn't it mean that numerous summoners could constantly advance as long as they had realm pearls? Such a Sacred Master could overturn everything …
"There might be a great change in the Divine Realm. Your Majesty, please make preparations as soon as possible …"
The Sacred Bell in the Sacred Master Hall of the Imperial City of Shangjing City rang 21 times, which shocked the entire Shangjing City.
Except for Shangjing City, all the Sacred Bells across the Yuanqiu World started to ring as long as there was a Sacred Master Hall …
…
In a brilliant palace in an indescribable mysterious space, Zhang Tie was sitting on the throne and drinking liquor as he looked into the distance. All of a sudden, he revealed a faint smile, "You're not slow. You didn't let me down. Don't die. I'm afraid that that guy is going crazy …"
