God and Demon Zifeng

Chapter 238 The Current Situation of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in Tianwu Continent

Then, Hai Dafu asked with some doubt: "So, your fundamental skills are actually deduced and created by yourself?"

"That's right, you should know the situation of our Liang family. We have an irresponsible father who thought that he could rest assured by letting us brothers and sisters live ordinary lives.

However, in this world, if you don't have strength, how can life be so easy? So, I made my own deduction and modification of a Taoist breathing method.

I deduced a set of breathing methods that suit us and found that the effect was quite good. Later, I incorporated various visualization concepts into it.

Later, I got a lot of martial arts skills from outside. In this way, my skills were constantly deduced and improved, and finally we have the basic skills of our Liang family.

However, because the foundation of the technique was different from the concept of martial arts from the very beginning, it gradually took a different path from martial arts."

After hearing this, Hai Dafu and the others thought that Liang Zifeng was too evil. Although Liang Zifeng said it lightly, it is not that easy to create a law. Otherwise, all kinds of laws would have flooded the world long ago.

Neither of them knew how to comment on Liang Zifeng, but they did have a new understanding of Liang Zifeng's comprehension. He was another person like Emperor Tianwu.

"Brother Liang, I don't know how to evaluate your understanding. I didn't expect that you would take a path different from martial arts. By the way, does this path of yours have a name?" Wei Hongru said with some emotion at first, and then suddenly remembered that Liang Zifeng did not say the name of the new path, so he asked curiously.

"Name?" Liang Zifeng was stunned by the question. For someone who is bad at naming, naming is what he hates the most, so he naturally didn't give a name.

Seeing Liang Zifeng's expression, the two knew that Liang Zifeng had not named the new road, so Hai Dafu said, "Liang boy, you should give it a name."

"Yes, Brother Liang, how can a new path of cultivation have no name? You have already accepted a disciple, and this new path of cultivation will definitely spread and expand. It can't still be called martial arts, right?" Wei Hongru also nodded in agreement.

Liang Zifeng thought about it and felt that he should come up with a new name, so he muttered to himself while thinking: "Well, it makes sense. Let me think about it. I used the Taoist breathing method, which contains various metaphysical concepts.

But it also incorporates a lot of martial arts theory, metaphysical concepts plus martial arts theory, so why not just call it Xuanwu Dao, um, let's use this name."

Hai Dafu and Wei Hongru looked at each other after hearing Liang Zifeng's words, which also mentioned Taoism in the previous sentence.

Because Taoism has existed for a very long time, but those people are very mysterious, and their number is relatively small, and they mostly exist in a Taoist way.

However, Taoism is also a minority religion in the Tianwu world, and it is divided into several sects. The doctrines of each sect are very different, and each has its own mythology system.

However, they both understood the word metaphysics. In this world, formations, celestial calculations, and other mysterious theories all belong to the category of metaphysics.

They didn't expect that Liang Zifeng actually incorporated some metaphysical elements when he was deducing his martial arts skills, so they became even more curious about Liang Zifeng's martial arts skills.

"Xuanwu Dao?" Wei Hongru muttered thoughtfully, then nodded, "This name is very appropriate. I didn't expect that Brother Liang is so knowledgeable and proficient in metaphysics."

"Haha, not really proficient, just a hobby."

"Liang boy, you just said Taoism? Not Taoism?"

"It's the Taoists. Leader Hai seems very surprised?"

"How can I not be surprised? The Taoists are very mysterious, and there are so few of them. They seem to focus on training their Qi, and their strength is generally not high. I heard that the most powerful one is only at the first level."

"Oh? There are very few Taoists? What about Taoism?" Liang Zifeng asked curiously.

"As for Taoism, there aren't many followers. Taoism is still a small sect in Tianwu Continent, not as big as the White Dragon Sect.

Taoists and Taoists all focus more on their own cultivation. Taoists are better. They occasionally perform rituals for ordinary people to make a living, but that's all. They don't seem to focus much on preaching. "

Liang Zifeng frowned after hearing this. He didn't know much about Taoism in this world. Moreover, in the Daxing Empire, he had never seen a Taoist temple, let alone a Taoist priest.

"What about Buddhism? I didn't seem to see any Taoists or monks in Daxing." Liang Zifeng thought of Buddhism again. In his previous life, Buddhism was much more prosperous than Taoism. There were temples everywhere. Unfortunately, there were too many fake monks.

"Buddhism is a medium-sized sect. They are good at deceiving people. The royal families of many countries would invite Buddhists to preach. After all, Buddhism encourages people to do good deeds in order to have a good start in the so-called afterlife.

However, there are also some forces that do not like Buddhism because Buddhism does not engage in production, occupies land but does not pay taxes, and many temples are full of filth and corruption.

Especially their saying "Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha right away", although it has made many evildoers reform,

But it also caused the temples to do things in secret because of the existence of these villains, so Buddhism’s reputation in Tianwu Continent is not very good. ”

Hai Dafu was quite knowledgeable about Buddhism and Taoism, and he could talk about them endlessly. After talking about Buddhism and Taoism, he looked at Wei Hongru beside him and continued:

"Speaking of religious sects, Confucianism is more popular. Brother Wei is a Confucianist, and the influence of Xuanlu Academy in Confucianism is relatively large."

"Oh?" Liang Zifeng knew that Wei Hongru was a Confucian, but he didn't expect that he was also a member of a religious sect. He looked at Wei Hongru in surprise, "Brother Wei didn't say that he was a Confucian."

"What is there to say? Generally speaking, most scholars are Confucianists. However, Confucianists focus most of their energy on studying and learning, and are not as focused on martial arts when it comes to spiritual practice." Wei Hongru smiled faintly.

"What does Confucianism cultivate? The great and upright energy?" Liang Zifeng didn't know much about Confucianism in his previous life. He didn't know what Confucianism in this world was like, so he asked curiously.

"Yes, only those who can cultivate a righteous spirit can be called Confucianists. A righteous spirit is formed through long-term cultivation from the inside out.

The core is to adhere to the principles, to be upright in heart, body and behavior, so that the Qi can be corrected.

Uh, haha, my old problem comes back again. Sorry to both of you for making fun of me."

When Wei Hongru talked about the philosophy of Confucianism, he suddenly became excited and began to explain it to the two of them. However, after a few words, he realized that the occasion was not right, so he stopped with some embarrassment.
