Awaken Chapter 211

A gentleman’s sword.

It is their talent that is cut.

And the second sword of the gentleman is to make them suffer.

As Confucian scholars, they don’t do anything for the sake of the world and don’t understand the meaning of the sages.

What they study all day is how to become a government official, and what they study every moment is how to calculate others, how to insult others? How to abuse others? How to trample on others?

Is this still Confucianism?

Is this still a scholar?

This is no longer a scholar, this is a demon.

To leave the Great Wei, it can be said that the scholars do not want to be restricted, which is understandable.

But to suppress the fortunes of Wei when they were leaving, does that make sense?

I am afraid that the demons are not even that ruthless.

What happened just now, although Xu Qingnian did not experience it, but with his successful epiphany, all the things that happened just now came to the surface, which was retrospective.

On the Yan Yun House.

Xu Qingnian’s saintly might was invincible, and his light, reflecting throughout the entire capital of the House, could be seen from ten thousand miles away as Xu Qingnian’s saintly phantasm.

When the Junzi’s second sword had coalesced, billions and billions of sword rays rushed up into the sky, scattering across the entire world.

When this sword struck, every one of the world’s readers panicked, and all of them did not expect that Xu Qingnian would still be able to condense a second sword.

“You’re still chipping away at my literary energy? If you cut me any further, we will lose it.”

“Xu Qingnian, you are really ruthless.”

“Xu Qingnian, you are really not a son of a man.”

“Ah!”

Along with countless curses, the next moment, miserable and incomparable screams rang out.

It was the miserable screams of the readers.

The gentleman’s sword struck and did not cause any substantial wounds, for this was the sword of the spirit, this was the sword of the will.

But it was expected that this second sword would again cut their Confucian position, but as this sword killed, many of the readers let out unparalleled screams of misery.

This sword did not cut their talent, nor did it cut their Confucian status.

Rather, it struck them as if a sword had pa*sed through their bodies, and the pain was so excruciating that how could these scholars not scream? How could these scholars not scream in agony? How could they not scream like pigs?

The Great Wei Palace of Literature.

When the second Sword of the Gentleman came, all the Confucian scholars panicked.

But panic was not an option, but the Sword of the Gentleman did not show any mercy and pierced right through their bodies.

Some of them fell to their knees and let out a miserable scream, while some of the great Confucians even cried out in pain.

But there were some great Confucians who looked at everything in astonishment, for he did not feel any pain, he was the great Confucian who had spoken out before, and even at the beginning, he had not been cut from his Confucian position.

This gentleman’s sword would only hurt those who were not gentleman.

“Xu Qingnian!”

“You are too arrogant!”

“How dare you deceive heaven and earth, your crime is beyond pardon!”

“You have become a saint today, but you have not yet truly stepped into the path of sainthood, you have merely attained an epiphany of saintly intent.”

“You are not yet a true saint. Listen to the orders of this saint and gather the vast literary intent to suppress Xu Qingnian, who is only at the stage of clarifying his intent, he still needs to re-establish his words, re-write his books and find his central idea again.”

“He also needs to draw on the power of the world’s scholars and the power of heaven and earth.”

“Otherwise, he would not be a true half-saint after all.”

“Xu Qingnian, you are too arrogant, if you had kept a low profile and become a saint alone, perhaps you could really have become a saint, only you are too arrogant, you should not have appeared at this time.”

Hong Sheng’s voice rang out, he did not care about Xu Qingnian, because he sensed that Xu Qingnian had only just attained enlightenment, had just clarified his will, he was not a true saint, he had not yet reached any step.

Since Xu Qingnian had not truly become a saint, everything would be fine.

At this moment, the will of all the readers in the world was strengthened, they were dying of pain, but when they heard Zhu Sheng speak like this, this hatred was endless and their will was unprecedentedly strong.

The power of the terrifying readers gathered together, clouds gathered above the vault of heaven, covering the Great Wei completely and utterly.

Countless rays of light coalesced and people were stunned, this was the first time the people had seen the power of the world’s readers.

The talent was like a sea, it looked terrifying, the sword of literature coalesced and blossomed with a blazing and incomparable light, above the Great Wei Palace of Literature, this sword aura rose up to the sky, the sword aura swept over 30,000 miles.

This is the power of will, not just the will of Confucianism, but mainly the power of the world’s readers.

At this moment, all the scholars were excited. They really did not know that Xu Qingnian had not become a saint, and now that they heard Hong Sheng say so, they were naturally excited.

The pain that Xu Qingnian had caused them had made them hate him so much.

Now that Hong Sheng had said so, they naturally did not hesitate to contribute their strength.

Above the Great Wei Palace of Literature.

The 10,000 zhang Wen Sword was filled with unparalleled power, ten times stronger than before, and even vaguely suppressing Xu Qingnian’s Junzi’s Sword.

People were indeed worried about Xu Qingnian, especially some great scholars, who knew that Xu Qingnian had indeed only just had an epiphany of the Sacred Meaning; to be more precise, Xu Qingnian had regained clarity of meaning.

He had not yet achieved the rest.

If he had done so, he would have been considered a true half-saint and could have stood up to the Great Wei Palace of Literature.

But now Xu Qingnian had not achieved it, which meant that it was likely that Xu Qingnian would have to suffer a great loss.

However.

In the Smoky Cloud Mansion.

Xu Qingnian quietly looked in the direction of the Great Wei Wen Palace.

His gaze pierced through everything, and he could see the scene in Great Wei’s Kyoto and hear the sounds.

At this moment.

The Sword of Literature moved, a sword that cut through the sky, its aura reflecting the past and the present, the entire Great Wei sky illuminated, dazzling, radiant and unearthly.

At the same time, this sword, too, appeared extremely terrifying, frightening, frightening, trembling all over.

This was the strongest sword of the Palace of Literature, the sword of the world’s readers.

Their target, too, was locked on Xu Qingnian, to make it impossible for Xu Qingnian to become a saint, and at the same time, to make Xu Qingnian die here.

The terrifying heavenly might came to kill.

In almost an instant, the Sword of Man had already appeared above the Smoky Cloud Mansion.

It went towards Xu Qingnian to kill him.

At this moment, everyone’s eyes looked at this scene with dead eyes, countless people looked on with dead eyes, some wanted Xu Qingnian to die, some didn’t want Xu Qingnian to die.

And Xu Qingnian’s life or death was at stake in this instant.

In the middle of the Great Wei Palace of Literature, Hong Sheng watched all this with dead eyes, his eyes full of confidence, but deep down he was still nervous, he wanted Xu Qingnian to die, to die right now.

If he did not kill Xu Qingnian today, Xu Qingnian would probably really become a half-saint, and if that were the case, it would be a thunderstorm for the Great Wei Palace.

Cao Ru, Fang Ru, and the other great scholars also stared blankly, wanting to see Xu Qingnian die, but their eyes were full of confidence and contempt.

This was because they thought that Xu Qingnian would definitely die.

Xu Qingnian must die, he must not be able to run away, he was dead.

Under this kind of attack, it was useless for anyone to come, the power of the world’s scholars was so concentrated that even the Great Wei Tripod could not withstand it, so how could he, Xu Qingnian, withstand it?

The world’s scholars also stared in disbelief as they hated Xu Qingnian to death, wishing he could die right now.

As for the Great Wei Palace, Chen Zhengru, Wang Xinzhi, Gu Yan, Li Yanlong, Zhou Yan, Zhang Jing, and all the other civil and military officials looked at the sword, praying that Xu Qingnian would be able to withstand it.

As long as he could withstand this sword, Xu Qingnian would be transformed into a saint, and might even become a saint directly.

Inside the Hall of Nourishing Hearts, the Empress was a little dizzy, but she still stood out, looking at the sword and praying continuously in her heart.

In the Peach Blossom Nunnery, Luo Baiyi’s eyes were misty with water, and she clenched her beautiful fist to death as she looked up at the sky, hoping that Xu Qingnian would not suffer.

In the Marquis of Ping Chao’s residence, Chen Xinghe did not dare to look straight at him. He clenched his fist, hating himself for being so incompetent, watching his junior brother being attacked by the world’s scholars like this, while he could do nothing about it.

At this moment, he suddenly understood the saying, “A hundred useless things are the words of a scholar.

Everyone was watching this sword, everyone in the world was watching, their eyes were filled with curiosity.

It was just at this moment that Xu Qingnian’s voice rang out.

“Today.”

“I, Xu Qingnian.”

“I wish to make a statement for the world’s scholars.”

When Xu Qingnian said this, in an instant, heaven and earth stood still.

For someone to become a saint, they need to re-explain their intention, re-establish their words, re-write their books, re-explain their central idea, and then gain the support of the world’s readers.

This is the way to become a saint. Xu Qingnian has re-explained his intention, and now he is going to re-establish his words, and the power of heaven and earth is sheltering Xu Qingnian.

The power of heaven and earth shielded Xu Qingnian. It stilled everything and gave Xu Qingnian the chance to establish his words, otherwise, if someone became a saint and was attacked and killed, could this heaven and earth tolerate it?

But time will not be given for long, for once you fail to make a statement and are not recognised by Heaven and Earth, then Heaven and Earth will not protect you for long.

As Xu Qingnian’s voice rang out, Hong Sheng’s voice immediately rang out too!

“You are arrogant, you are arrogant, Xu Qingnian, you are really crazy, it is just as well that you have made your intentions clear for the readers of the world.”

“How dare you now presume to make a statement for the world’s readers? Who are you to give words to the world’s readers?”

“Are you really not afraid of death? Do you know how difficult it is to give a speech to the world’s scholars?”

Hong Sheng spoke up, the reason he spoke out was to create psychological pressure on Xu Qingnian, not because he was arrogant and proud, if Xu Qingnian wanted to establish a speech, he had to suppress it.

To interfere with Xu Qingnian, to influence Xu Qingnian so that Xu Qingnian could not complete his speech.

However, Xu Qingnian paid no attention to Hong Sheng, but slowly spoke out.

“I, Xu Qingnian!”

“I wish to establish my heart for heaven and earth!”

“I wish to establish my life for the living people!”

“I wish to follow in the footsteps of the saints!”

“I wish to establish peace for all generations!”

At this moment, a magnificent and incomparable voice rang out.

When this voice resounded, everything between heaven and earth, everything, became incomparably quiet.

All things seemed to have come to a standstill.

This voice, too, spread throughout the entire Dust Realm, and everyone heard the words.

I wish to establish my heart for heaven and earth, my life for the living people, to follow the teachings of the sages of the past, and to open up peace for all ages.

These were Xu Qingnian’s words.

The people froze in place, even the people could hear the meaning of these four sentences.

This is a supreme statement, and it is also a supreme merit. People could hardly imagine that Xu Qingnian would make such a statement.

The world was shocked, but the most shocked were the readers of the world.

To establish a heart for heaven and earth! To establish a life for the people! For the saints of the past! To create peace for all ages.

This is too grand, isn’t it? Is this something that ordinary people can imagine?

At this moment, a great scholar froze in place, he did not participate in this matter, did not choose to help Xu Qingnian, but did not choose to help the Zhu Sheng lineage either, he just quietly watched.

It was because he believed that this matter had nothing to do with him and that he should not wade into the muddy waters, but until now, until Xu Qingnian had finished these four sentences, his entire being froze.

To establish a heart for heaven and earth, to find the heart’s upward intention for heaven and earth, to find the true spiritual path, so that the world will no longer be blinded, so that all things in heaven and earth will be rid of the world’s one dusty heart.

To establish a life for the people, to find the right way of destiny for the people of the world, so that the people of the world can live a good life, free from suffering, free from calamity, and free from life.

Who would dare to say that Xu Qingnian does not respect Zhu Sheng? Who would dare to say that Xu Qingnian does not respect the sage? Would he be a person who does not respect the sage if he could set such a grand aspiration?

To bring peace to the world, to make the world free of war, to bring peace to the world, to bring prosperity to the world, this is truly a great wish.

In an instant, these scholars understood what Xu Qingnian’s wish was, and compared to Xu Qingnian’s previous wish, this one was even more different and shocking.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this very moment, out of nowhere, in the midst of the Great Wei Palace of Literature, five incomparable rays of light shot out from the five holy statues, rays of light that pierced the heavens and pierced the darkness.

It appeared unparalleled.

This was the holy intent of the five holy statues between heaven and earth.

Only to see that, above the vault of the Great Wei sky, the terrifying Vast Qi coalesced and evolved into five saintly figures, each of which was ten thousand feet high and could be seen by countless living beings in the Central Region.

And at this moment, the five saintly silhouettes spoke in unison.

“Establish a heart for heaven and earth!”

“To establish the lives of the living!”

“To succeed the saints in the past!”

“For the peace of the world!”

The magnificent voices reached the whole world, the storm clouds filled the air, the sun on the left exploded with immeasurable light, and the bright moon on the right trembled with billions of divine rays.

Such a vision was astonishing to the heavens and the earth, crying out to the gods!

The scholars of the world froze, they looked at all this with dead eyes, they couldn’t believe it, they couldn’t believe it.

Not only had Xu Qingnian succeeded in re-establishing his words, but Xu Qingnian had even established the supreme words, causing the five holy figures to resonate in unison.

However, at this very moment, the five Sage Void Shadows, too, made a deep obeisance towards Xu Qingnian.

Hiss!

Hiss!

Hiss!

Countless people drew cold breath, although this was not the essence of the five saints, this was the will of the five saints, not only did they approve of Xu Qingnian’s words, but they even admired Xu Qingnian’s words.

This is impossible, this is not possible, the world’s readers simply could not believe it, they could not believe this scene.

At the beginning, when Xu Qingnian was at the Great Wei Palace of Literature, there was a Void of the Vermilion Saint, bowing towards Xu Qingnian, and later they believed that it was not the Void of the Vermilion Saint bowing towards Xu Qingnian.

It was only a virtual shadow, not a will, and someone was behind it, trying to create momentum for Xu Qingnian.

But now, five Sage Void Shadows had appeared, and all of them were paying obeisance towards Xu Qingnian, which was unacceptable to them.

Not only did the five saintly figures pay homage, but at this moment, there was also a portion of the remaining readers between heaven and earth who had also completely paid homage to Xu Qingnian.

Because these four words of Xu Qingnian were truly indescribable. These four words, which carried out the true meaning of reading, awakened all the readers who were still asleep.

The Imperial Capital of the Great Wei.

Chen Zhengru, Wang Xinzhi and the others all bowed towards Xu Qingnian in unison, along with the saint’s virtual shadow.

A vast amount of Vast Qi surged in towards Xu Qingnian.

But the readers of the Zhu Sheng lineage, they could not accept it, they really could not accept this fact ah.

“No! No! No! This is impossible, O Saints, why are you making pilgrimages to this Xu Qingnian? He doesn’t respect the holy will, so why should you worship him?”

“This is impossible, this is simply not possible, this person Xu Qingnian, who disrespects the holy will and suppresses us readers, why can he be worshipped by the saints?”

“So what if he has a clear intention, so what if he establishes his words, can he not, at this time, write a new book? And re-enlighten the central idea? In the end, he, Xu Qingnian, will not be supported by the world’s scholars.”

These voices rang out, and the readers of the Zhu Sheng lineage had gone mad. Not only did they not believe in all this, but they also spoke harshly, believing that it was impossible for Xu Qingnian to write a new book.

But as their voices rang out, they were rewarded with the wrath of the saints.

The will of the saints was still there, and although they were wills and had no intelligence, they could sense these words.

Boom, boom, boom!

Beams of holy light fell down, shaking these readers who had spoken wildly to death on the spot.

In the Great Wei Palace of Literature, some people were also killed by the holy will.

And at the same time, other voices rang out.

“Until now, do you still want to talk tough? Xu Qingnian’s talent is rare in the world, these four words are the lifelong pursuit of us scholars, you can slander Xu Qingnian, you can disrespect Xu Qingnian, but these four words, you cannot slander!”

There was a roar of anger from one of the scholars, an old man who did not even have a clear intention, but when Xu Qingnian uttered these four words, he became completely clear.

Looking at the group of scholars, he roared so angrily.

“To establish one’s heart for heaven and earth, to establish one’s life for the people, to follow the teachings of the past sages, and to open up peace for the world… these words are the true ultimate goal of our generation of scholars, Xu Sheng, deserves it.”

“How can a man who speaks of following in the footsteps of the saints slander the saints and disrespect them? If he did not respect the saints, how could he have succeeded them? You have gone completely mad, are you still readers?”

The voices resounded loudly and deafeningly.

At this moment, Xu Qingnian’s speech was not only his own, but also a speech for the world’s scholars.

His voice, like a great yellow bell, awakened the world’s scholars and pointed out a true Confucian path for them.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

At this very moment, in the Great Wei Palace of Literature, the Great Han Literary Bell trembled wildly, emitting one deafening sound after another.

Afterwards, the Ho Yin Wen Zhong rose into the sky and flew towards the Smoky Cloud Palace.

In an instant, the Vast Expanse Cultural Bell appeared above Xu Qingnian’s head, dropping down ten thousand channels of Vast Expanse Qi to protect Xu Qingnian’s safety.

The bell vibrated and the sound waves blasted the Sword of Literature, which had come to its senses to protect the future Half-Sage.

In the Palace of Literature, all the great scholars were ashen, no one had expected that the Vast and Ranging Literary Bell would protect Xu Qingnian?

This was a betrayal, a great betrayal.

“Xu Qingnian, you made such a statement and cheated the Wen Zhong, you are really not human.”

Cao Ru shouted, the disappearance of the Wen Zhong was an incalculable loss to the Great Wei Palace of Literature ah, he was so furious that he was almost about to vomit blood.

Clang.

In just an instant, the Hao Ran Wen Zhong seemed to understand Cao Ru’s voice and could not help but vibrate a little, the sound of sound waves, spanning thousands of mountains and tens of thousands of miles, coming directly to the Great Wei Wen Palace.

It exploded with unparalleled power, sending Cao Ru flying dozens of metres away on the spot and hitting the wall stones, shaking his internal organs and displacing them, causing him to spit out several mouthfuls of blood and turn pale.

He vomited several mouthfuls of blood and turned pale.

The Hao Ran Wen Zhong trembled gently, seemingly calling out to the Eight Jade Sacred Ruler, which surprisingly appeared to be somewhat hesitant in general, constantly swaying, wanting to leave the Wen Palace.

After seeing this scene, Hong Sheng was the first to add his holy power to stabilise the Eight Jade Sacred Ruler, and then roared angrily.

“Xu Qingnian, you stole my Zhu Saint’s Sacred Artifact, and this is your Confucian Way? You have, today, deceived our Zhu Saint lineage too harshly, this Saint will not rest until death with you!”

“Sacrifice!”

At this moment, Hong Sheng no longer had any choice, he was so furious that he flipped out his strongest card.

Immediately, the Great Wei Palace of Literature burst out but a terrifyingly incomparable light, and a Dharma decree appeared, just the Dharma decree of Zhu Sheng.

Hao Rang Qi coalesced and turned into a pen, writing a single word on the decree.

“Execute!”

When this word appeared, it was interspersed with terrifying might, turning into endless energy and pouring into the Wen Sword, which once again erupted with a terrifying aura to stop and kill Xu Qingnian outright.

“The Vermilion Saint Dharma Decree has been brought out? Hong Zhengtian, you are really a beast, this object was left behind by the Zhu Saint to pacify the demons, and yet you have taken out the decree to harm my new Great Wei Saint?”

Chen Zhengru roared in anger, his eyes bared, he did not expect Hong Zhengtian to take out such a thing.

This was the most powerful thing left behind by Zhu Sheng. If he sacrificed it, its power would be equal to that of a single strike by Zhu Sheng, which was left behind by Zhu Sheng because he was worried that after his death, the world would be in chaos.

It is said that a total of three were left behind.

But now, in order to target Xu Qingnian, Hong Sheng took out such a thing, this was no longer a battle of reason, this was a determined attempt on Xu Qingnian’s life.

This was so ruthless and disgusting that it had reached the level of unscrupulousness.

When the Zhu Sheng Dharma Decree turned into endless energy and was infused into the Wen Sword, the Wen Sword once again went towards Xu Qingnian to kill him.

The Hao Ran Wen Zhong blossomed into an endless Hao Ran Qi, trying to block the Wen Jian’s strike.

But with the enchantment of the Vermilion Saint’s Decree, the Sword of Literature was the sharpest sword between heaven and earth.

On the Yan Yun House.

Xu Qingnian’s sage dharma was incomparably calm.

The winds and clouds were raging, the sky was dark, and terrifying killing machines were coming in, as if they were extinguishing the world.

Xu Qingnian remained as calm as water.

“Heaven is strong! A gentleman never rests with self-improvement!”

“When the dragon is submerged, the Yang is underneath. To see the dragon in the field, the virtue is also universal. To be dry all day long is to repeat the path. Or leap in the abyss, and enter without blame. The flying dragon is in the sky, and the great man is made. The dragon has regrets, and the surplus cannot last long. With the nine, heavenly virtue cannot be the first.”

“The earth is kun! The gentleman carries things with great virtue!”

“To walk on frost and ice is the beginning of the condensation of Yin. The taming of the path is to the firm ice. The movement of the sixth two is also straightforward with the square. There is no disadvantage in not practicing, and the earth’s path is light. It is also the time to develop. It may be from the king’s affairs, knowing that the light is also great. It is also prudent not to harm. The yellow garment is auspicious, and the text is in the middle. The dragon battles in the wild, and its path is poor. With the Sixth Year of Eternal Chastity, with a great end.”

The magnificent voice rang out once again.

Every word Xu Qingnian spoke was reflected in the vault of heaven, shining with golden light.

This was the Yi Jing.

Xu Qingnian had chosen to already be the book of the Sacred Path for himself.

The incomparably obscure I Ching resounded, and one could hear it and feel that it was incomparably esoteric, obscure but somehow seemingly incomparably extraordinary.

It went on and on until the entire I Ching had been fully finished by Xu Qingnian.

The next moment, another magnificent and heaven-shattering word rang out.

“I, Xu Qingnian, write the Book of Changes today.”

“May all future readers be like dragons.”

The voice rang out, and at this moment, the world was completely and utterly shocked.

This he incredible.

This book of the Book of Changes was actually the book of dragon transformation.

Only then did everyone understand what the book of Xu Qingnian’s writings was.

If Xu Qingnian’s previous book, the Thousand Character Cla*sic, was a book of enlightenment for children, then this Book of Changes was a book for future readers to transform into dragons.

Metamorphosis into a dragon refers to the metamorphosis of talent, truly knowing and understanding reason, like a dragon, as the ultimate.

Roar!

At this moment, the sound of a dragon’s roar really rang out.

Only to see, above Xu Qingnian, a golden dragon tore apart the black clouds, and a golden dragon of ten thousand feet, stepping on auspicious clouds, came and hovered above Xu Qingnian.

The world was incomparably astonished by such a vision, for there was no such vision in the ancient and modern worlds.

Even if one were to become a true saint, there would not be so many visions, would there?

But at that very moment, the Book of the I Ching evolved into a dragon gate.

It stood above the vault of heaven in the Central Continent.

A boundless light appears, and the essence of the reader, transformed into fish, jumps under the dragon gate.

Once they crossed it, they were carp transformed into dragons.

“This is the first book of the ancient and modern worlds!”

“The book of the saints, this is the book of the saints.”

“Xu Shouren clarified the will of the world’s scholars, clarified the supreme will, and then set down immortal words, and now he has even written the book of sainthood, such a feat will never be surpa*sed in a thousand years.”

“Open your eyes wide and see, stop being so obsessed, Xu Sheng is destined to become a saint.”

Some readers who were not from the Zhu Sheng lineage spoke up, and they told the Zhu Sheng lineage to see clearly.

Don’t be so obsessed anymore.

But such words only made them more unconvinced, more angry, and more jealous ah.

The young generation, the biggest reason why they were so cooperative with the Wen Palace was actually not because of jealousy.

They were jealous of Xu Qingnian.

Jealous of why Xu Qingnian was only twenty years old and had such status and such talent, so whenever Xu Qingnian did something a little wrong, they grabbed at it.

It is reasonable to say that a normal person would not dare to fight with the world’s scholars and would meekly bow down, but instead of choosing to bow down, Xu Qingnian fought with them every time.

And every time, Xu Qingnian was able to turn the situation around.

How could they not be angry? And how could they not be angry?

Originally, according to this time, Xu Qingnian was bound to be finished, but what they didn’t expect was that Xu Qingnian was still standing firm and was going to become a saint today, how could they stand it?

The world’s scholars had gone completely insane as a result of these people’s insults.

“Xu Qingnian, there is no way he can become a saint, he is using the power of evil spirits, how can anyone become a saint in a year? How can anyone become a saint in less than a year?”

“Yes, yes, Xu Qingnian has made use of the power of evil spirits, there is absolutely no way he could have become a saint in a year, this is impossible, if it wasn’t for the power of evil spirits, who could become a saint in a year?”

“Hong Sheng! Gather the power of the world’s scholars once again, kill Xu Qingnian, kill him, kill him!”

“Hong Sheng, kill the devil quickly.”

That one voice rang out, the angry voice of the Zhu Sheng lineage, who had lost their eyes, to say that they would not become demons was simply impossible.

At this point, these readers were still like this, which made the readers who were not from the Zhu Sheng lineage, smack their lips thoroughly.

Originally, I thought that these scholars had only hated Xu Qingnian because he had disrespected Zhu Sheng at the beginning.

But now, it seemed that these people really had a problem.

These people, where were they considered to be scholars?

They were all demons and devils, right!

“Kill!”

In the Palace of Literature, Hong Sheng had gone completely mad. He had never thought that Xu Qingnian would really be able to re-establish his will, re-establish his words, and even re-author his book today.

No, this is not a book of saints, this is a book that can make people become saints.

Everyone is like a dragon!

These four words are so heavy and magnificent that they are no weaker than the four words of Fang.

Everything Xu Qingnian does today will be pa*sed down through the ages.

If he were to become a saint, he would truly be a great disaster for the Great Wei Palace of Literature.

Therefore, today, no matter what, he had to kill Xu Qingnian.

It was no matter what.

The vast qi like an ocean of water entered the Sword of Man, and this time the Sword of Man did not hesitate.

He went towards Xu Qingnian to kill him.

And right now.

Xu Qingnian looked up at the vault of heaven, he had now taken three steps, and was still short of the last two.

Re-enlightenment of his central idea.

The previous central thought was that things were in the air.

Where there is a will, there is a way.

And now, Xu Qingnian needed to regain clarity on a new central idea.

Wen Jian killed, not giving Xu Qingnian a single chance, but fortunately, the Hao Ran Wen Zhong erupted with energy to block Wen Jian, while the nine golden dragons lunged towards him.

It was all a vision.

The battle of qi luck.

The Sword of Man was matchless, an invincible being, blasting against the Vast Manifestation Clock, each blow bursting forth with an endless amount of Vast Manifestation Qi.

The Golden Dragon lunges, but can only delay the attack of the Sword of Literature, but cannot truly destroy it.

This was the sword of the will of the world’s scholars, where it was so easy to break.

Right now, Xu Qingnian had to become a saint.

As long as Xu Qingnian became a saint, everything would be fine, the battle would be reversed in an instant.

A complete and utter reversal.

Only the world’s readers would not let it.

And Xu Qingnian was also having an epiphany of the final central thought.

Things are done!

Where there is a will, there is a way.

Xu Qingnian closed his eyes, everything seemed too hasty, but everything should happen too.

Boom, boom, boom!

The Wen Sword kept attacking, and the Hao Ran Wen Zhong was extremely terribly traumatised, almost cracking open.

The golden dragon kept lunging, but it seemed somewhat unhelpful.

It was also at this moment.

Xu Qingnian suddenly opened his eyes.

He became enlightened.

Where there is a will, there is a way.

It was his central thought before, but now Xu Qingnian suddenly realised that this was not his central thought.

When he thought about it, every single thing that had ever happened was not something that was in the cards.

Rather.

Man made the sky!

That’s right, it was that man had decided to win.

Everyone can change their destiny, where there are so many certainties.

If one’s mind is stable, free from all influences, unmoved by external things, one works towards what one wants to do.

It’s all in the mind.

Yes.

That is the central idea of yourself.

The true central thought.

Man is determined to win.

To obey heaven by following your heart.

Victory over heaven is not victory over heaven and earth, but victory over everything you think is impossible to do.

It is the law of nature.

Heaven, is the original mind, and the original mind is also heaven.

Having thought of this.

In an instant, countless Haozheng Qi surged towards Xu Qingnian, the ultimate sublimation.

By gaining the power of the world’s scholars, Xu Qingnian would be able to become a saint.

At this moment, people were stunned as all the readers found that their own Hao Rang Qi was surging towards Xu Qingnian.

Xu Qingnian had come to the final step.

He was about to complete his true metamorphosis and ascension.

At this moment.

A voice rang out.

“We are willing to help Xu Ru become a saint!”

“I wish to help Xu Ru become a saint!”

“Wishing to help Xu Ru become a saint and sweep away all demons and evil.”

That one voice rang out, it was from between heaven and earth, the other scholars, who thoroughly admired Xu Qingnian and were thoroughly convinced.

They bowed towards Xu Qingnian and contributed their strength, hoping that Xu Qingnian would thus become a saint.

At this moment, within the Great Wei Palace of Literature, a voice like this also rang out.

“To establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a life for the people, to follow the teachings of the past sages, and to open up peace for all generations, the words of Xu Ru can be seen by heaven and earth.

This was Xun Ru’s voice, and he stood up, defying everything, and bowed in the direction where Xu Qingnian was.

He gave Xu Qingnian all the Vast Righteousness in his body.

Not only him, but also four or five other great scholars spoke up in unison. They originally did not want to get involved in this matter, but now they were convinced by Xu Qingnian, completely convinced.

How could they not be convinced by someone who could say something that would establish a heart for heaven and earth?

At one time, they had indeed despised and disliked Xu Qingnian because of his age, but now they were completely convinced.

Xu Qingnian had the qualifications of a saint, not a half-saint, but a literary saint, a Confucian literary saint.

They were willing, to help Xu Qingnian and do their part.

“I, Chen, would like to add to Xu Ru, to add to his vast righteousness, to Xu Ru, to open up peace for all generations!”

“Today, I, Chen, destroy my Confucian position, and from now on, have no more relations with the Zhu Sheng lineage.”

Chen Xin’s voice rang out, he was a great Confucian of the Zhu Sheng lineage, for some time now, he had been hesitating, the Great Wei Palace of Literature broke away, he had no way to stop it, but when the Great Wei Palace of Literature broke away, and had to suppress the Great Wei Dynasty’s national luck.

He spoke out, but did it help? No!

He chose to remain silent, but his conscience was troubled, and now when Xu Qingnian spoke of establishing a heart for heaven and earth, he came to his senses through and through.

What was he doing?

Was he still a scholar?

What was the purpose of reading? Wasn’t it just these four words of Xu Qingnian?

But what was he doing? Watching the Great Wei Dynasty’s fortunes decay?

Watching the people suffer in the future?

He was wrong, he knew he was wrong, so he broke away from the Zhu Sheng lineage and destroyed his own Confucian position.

The Vast Righteousness that he had worked so hard to cultivate was dispersed by him and was lost within the Cauldron of Great Wei’s national fortune.

Chen Xin, too, knelt on the ground and bowed towards Xu Qingnian.

When Chen Xin made this outburst, Zhou Min sighed as he shook his head and said.

“It is we who are wrong!”

“It was too late to know.”

“Confucianism is not Confucianism, a scholar is not a scholar, I studied for the sake of the world, but in the end, it turned out to be a further harm to the world and to the people of Great Wei, today, I also dispersed the Confucian position and withdrew from the Zhu Sheng lineage.”

“I will die to thank you for your sins!”

Zhou Min laughed bitterly, if Chen Xin had only been hovering and hesitating, but he actually supported the Wen Gong to break away.

Right now, what Xu Qingnian had done had lifted him up inside, and even more so, it had awakened him to his senses.

He knew he had done wrong and was willing to destroy his own Confucian position, but he could not let go of himself.

When the voice rang out and the bystanders were too late to dissuade him, Zhou Min had already shattered his own heart chakra and sat straight down, killing him on the spot.

He paid for this catastrophe with his own life.

Zhou Min died, but at the end of his life, he became a true scholar.

Some people wept sadly, Zhou Min’s disciples, bawling on the ground, grieving.

Some great scholars saw this scene, and one by one they were silent.

Chen Xin was even more choked up, he really did not know what to say.

But who was to blame for this?

But what he knew was that Zhou Min had, at the last moment, enlightened himself about the true Confucian Way.

“Unbridled! Unbridled! Unbridled!”

“You have been compelled by Xu Qingnian to do such a foolish thing, you are simply unbridled.”

“Xu Qingnian is unable to become a saint, the Vermilion Saint lineage heed the order to do their utmost to stop Xu Qingnian from becoming a saint.”

Hong Zhengtian’s voice rang out.

He had not expected such a thing to happen within the Great Wei Palace of Literature at a critical moment, and in his opinion, Chen Xin and Zhou Min were traitors, along with several other great scholars.

Having trusted Xu Qingnian, he would rather kill his own heart and veins than stand on the same line with the Palace of Literature.

This made him incredibly angry.

And as his voice rang out, in an instant, the original Haozheng Qi in all directions suddenly plummeted by 80%.

Ninety percent of the readers in Zhu Sheng’s lineage began to do their utmost to stop the Hao Rang Qi from flying away.

They were so determined that there was no way they would let Xu Qingnian rely on them to become a saint.

“Xu Qingnian, you presume to rely on the power of us Readers to achieve sainthood, presume!”

Hong Zhengtian’s voice rang out, he was already furious.

But all the same, the words were firm and unmistakable, for the most crucial hurdle to sainthood was to draw on the power of the world’s readers.

Hong Zhengtian’s voice resounded through the capital of Great Wei.

However, at that very moment, a soft voice rang out, a voice that was also childish!

It was in the Smoky Cloud Mansion.

It was a child.

He was a little scared and a little timid, but his voice was clear and crisp, and his face was determined.

“May I help Xu Ru to become a saint.”

He spoke like some Confucian students, helping Xu Qingnian to become a saint.

Only after this voice rang out, it drew the attention of some people, but when they looked over and found that it was a child, they could not help but let out a bitter smile.

Readers rallied to the Vast Righteousness, how could they, ordinary folk, possibly, help Xu Qingnian to become a saint?

But just as someone spoke up.

Suddenly, a faint beam of light slowly emerged from the child’s body and flew towards the sky above.

At this moment, the people in the middle of the downtown froze.

Immediately afterwards, someone opened his mouth experimentally and looked at Xu Qingnian and said.

“May I help Xu Ru to become a saint!”

His voice rang out, and although he had no bottom in his heart, his gaze was steadfast.

At that moment.

Still a faint light coalesced out and flew towards Xu Qingnian.

For a moment, people were completely shocked.

But the next moment, a voice rang out.

“Wishing to help Xu Ru become a saint!”

“Wishing to help Xu Ru become a saint!”

“Wishing to help Xu Ru become a saint!”

These voices, although they were not loud and did not resound for ten thousand miles, these voices were full of determination!

In an instant.

A faint light gathered together.

The light was faint though.

But when the number became extremely large.

It will.

Be between heaven and earth!

The brightest beam of all!

The light!

This light.

Shines through the ages!
