Xie Dong once again suppressed another wave of opponents before continuing to speak.
What he said next was just as everyone had guessed.
"The Heavenly Axiom is no longer impartial. On the contrary, it favors those who are beneficial to it. Everyone here is a cultivator seeking longevity. I don't think anyone would find it hypocritical. We're all modern people, so there's no need for formalities. Most people cultivate to achieve longevity, which is difficult to achieve with technology. As for becoming stronger, I think that's secondary. After all, no matter how strong you are, it's meaningless if you can only live for a hundred years. "
Some people in the meeting would naturally disagree with this point of view. If one could only live like a tortoise for a thousand years, it would be better to live like an eagle for a few decades …
However, with the lightning in front of them, no one objected. They listened to Xie Dong in silence.
"There's a saying that goes' those who follow the Heavenly Axiom are free, and those who defy the Heavenly Axiom have to work hard '. Those who defy the Heavenly Axiom will only have a good ending in novels and television shows … If everyone wants to live forever, they'll naturally receive Heavenly Merit if they do something beneficial to the Earth's Heavenly Axiom. Those with Heavenly Merit will have fewer bottlenecks in cultivation, and their luck will increase. Even if they become ghosts, they'll have a chance to reincarnate … "
"In this regard, I think Mount Indigo Monastery's Master Ma has the most experience. Daoist Ma, I wonder if you can talk about the relevant insights and experiences? "Xie Dong said with a smile.
He did not greet him in private. After all, cultivators had many tricks up their sleeves, and it was easy for them to discover all kinds of secret room transactions. If that was the case, the credibility would be greatly reduced.
However, he knew that Ma Futian would definitely agree to his suggestion.
As the leader of the Public Relations team, he was well aware of the situation in Mount Indigo Monastery. He also had the talent to tell the truth from lies, so he was even more aware of Ma Futian's thoughts.
Sure enough, Master Ma's face flashed with a hint of satisfaction. He had to be humble when everyone was complimenting him by the lake. He did not feel good pretending at all.
At the meeting, all the famous cultivators in China were seated. Those who could sit here had to be at least Pond-level.
For example, his son and direct disciple, Ma Ping, who had just broken through to Basin-level, could only sit outside and listen. He was not qualified to sit in the ring.
Reality was like this. How could there be so much equality …
"Leader Xie, you're too polite." He cupped his hands, then straightened his beard and said, "This old Taoist is untalented and slow-witted. Under the teachings of the Patriarch, as the head of Mount Indigo Monastery, slaying demons is part of my duty. His luck in the past few years had been good. Although there had been difficulties along the way, he had overcome them all. Now that I think about it, it wasn't that my luck was good, but I'd actually done something beneficial to the heavens and the earth and accumulated some merit from the Heaven Dao. Only then was I able to turn misfortune into fortune, turn misfortune into fortune, and advance bravely on the path of cultivation … "
Everyone in the meeting perked up when they heard this, not wanting to miss a single word.
Ma Futian often traveled around the world. Along with the Venerable Dragon God, the Bodhisattva Spirit King, and Tianjing Fawang, he was one of the Four Great Masters among the people of China.
However, he was the only one among them who was a pure native. He was not a descender, nor was he a double.
The credibility of his words was naturally extremely high.
For a moment, everyone was tempted.
Old Master Ma was old and not very talented, yet he could cultivate to Lake-level.
He relied on slaying demons, benefiting the heavens and the earth, and obtaining Heavenly Merit.
Moreover, they were younger and had better qualifications. If they could also accumulate Heavenly Merit, could they not cultivate to a higher level?
If Vigilante A were to say this, although everyone would be envious, it would be difficult for them to compare, because Vigilante A was possessed by the Dragon God from the Upper Realm. There was no way they could compare at all …
In the past, there were people who wanted to compete with Vigilante A in terms of cultivation speed. However, as Vigilante A kept farming monsters and leveling up, the Bosses he killed became stronger and stronger, and they were not even worthy to carry the shoes of those Bosses who died tragically. Most of them gave up on the idea.
Cultivators still had self-awareness. After all, they had to train their hearts and inspect their bodies every day.
At this moment, a voice finally sounded in the meeting hall.
"Master Ma's appearance is really a good merit. Looks like we can't just cultivate in the future and work behind closed doors anymore. We have to go out and earn merit. The ancients said that cultivation requires one to go out and enter the world. Looks like there's a lot of truth to it. It's not all fabricated. "Someone began to discuss in a low voice.
"That's right. That's probably what Master Ma's inheritance is all about. That's why he's able to be the first to leave."
"Hehe, Mr. Rich Boss, the limelight has been stolen by Old Ma. You probably won't be able to pretend anymore …" Sir System gloated.
"Am I such a shallow person?" Fang Ning said unhappily. Then, he changed the topic. "There'll be a chance for me to pretend sooner or later. I don't believe that they would dare to waste my time and invite me here just to sit around doing nothing."
"Uh … You're saying this as if Vigilante A's great reputation was built by you." Sir System said gloomily.
There was a lot of discussion in the meeting hall, and people's hearts were wavering.
After all, not everyone had the opportunity to lead the way. Firstly, it was not easy to catch someone's eye.
Secondly, the Upper Realm did not need too many guides. Cultivation resources were always limited, so the rest of them should just be honest laborers.
Most of the cultivators in the meeting still maintained a neutral stance.
They would follow whoever offered more benefits.
Things that were destined to die were off the table, but things that were not too risky could still be discussed.
If there were really great benefits, such as nature-defying techniques or longevity pills … then they could take the risk.
In the past, everyone only had a vague concept of Heavenly Merit and was not sure. After all, the Heavenly Axiom was too far away for many people, and they could not easily come into contact with it.
Now that there was finally a top-notch cultivator who brought this matter up, it naturally made their minds move.
Everyone knew the power of the four words "Heaven is helping". Some people bought a lottery ticket and won 5 million. On the other hand, it was "disaster falling from the sky". Some people were just sleeping at home, but a car broke into the house and killed them for no reason …
These were all things that had really happened in reality and were on the news.
Now, however, this "Heaven" was conscious. It was not like before. Coincidences could only be explained as luck, probability, or even the chaotic effect …
Xie Dong and Ma Futian, a team leader of the Truth Department and a Lake-level powerhouse, both clearly stated the same principle, "Man helps Heaven, and Heaven helps man."
Then, the question was obvious.
What could be considered as helping Heaven, to get twice the result with half the effort, and to truly obtain Heavenly Merit?
Thus, someone raised his hand to ask questions.
Xie Dong nodded and extended his hand like a spokesperson.
"Hello, Team Leader Xie. A wise man once said, 'Do good with intention, but good will not be rewarded; do evil without intention, but evil will not be punished.' Now, we are obviously doing good deeds to obtain Heavenly Merit. Will the Heavenly Axiom not reward us instead? "
This was a very young man who looked to be around 20 years old. To be able to reach Pond-level at such an age, it could be said that he was a weirdo in China, loved by the heavens and earth.
Xie Dong smiled slightly. He loved technical questions like this the most. It meant that everyone's thoughts were slowly being turned on the right path.
He immediately said, "I think other than the Venerable Dragon God, no one else is qualified to answer this question … Venerable One, please dispel our doubts." Fang Ning was secretly pleased.
Hearing this, Fang Ning was secretly pleased. With a calm expression, he stood up straight and did not rush to answer the question. Instead, he waved his hand in all directions, fully enjoying the complicated gazes of the people who were looking at him with anticipation and jealousy.
Sir System was also jealous. "Can you do it? Don't embarrass yourself by not being able to answer. You only know how to sleep in every day. You were still sleeping before coming here. You didn't do any homework. "
"I have tens of thousands of Draconic Penitentiary support team. If I can't answer a question, the others can't answer it either, so I definitely won't embarrass myself," Fang Ning said confidently.
As he spoke, he immediately notified Anderson who was in the System Space and sent out the questions for the souls to answer.
"…" Sir System was speechless. Suddenly, it said, "If that's the case, I don't need you to answer this question now."
"Uh …" Fang Ning was dumbfounded and had nothing to say.
He was afraid to hear a System Notification that was seized. However, after waiting for a while, there was no such notification.
"Hey, why are you so obedient this time?" Fang Ning was very surprised, but also somewhat gratified.
"Uh, I won't waste my cultivation time for this kind of pointless meeting. I'm not like you, pretending or not doesn't mean anything to me, "Sir System said disdainfully.
"Well said. Now that you finally understand the division of labor between us, I'm very gratified," Fang Ning said proudly.
Since he had already shown his attitude, Fang Ning did not have time to talk nonsense with Sir System. At this time, Anderson had also finished preparing the cheat sheet.
After Fang Ning looked at it, he cleared his throat and started to pretend, no, start to answer the question.
He only said eight words.
"The Way of Heaven asks for results, not causes."
