What Yangon said was very clear. For these competitors of the Innate Great Tao, they couldn't care less about other places, but since they were in the Interior Heaven, they had to abide by a fair and just competition environment!
What was fair and just? If one looked at it from the ancient rules, it would be fair and aboveboard. The winner wouldn't be happy, and the loser wouldn't be discouraged. They had to maintain a relatively pure atmosphere of Dao.
Of course, such a rule was simply impossible to achieve in the present. Cultivators nowadays were very practical. There was no such thing as' you and I are competing for the same dao. If you succeed, I will give you my blessings. My blade has already chopped down!
But what it meant here was that even if you wanted to fight, you had to do it in an atmosphere of rules, such as a fair competition, and not a group fight, sneak attack, digging holes, sprinkling lime powder, or calling your parents to call your friends …
In order to achieve this, people who hid their heads and tails and deceived the world couldn't be tolerated. Everyone had to put out their general origin and make it public to show their selflessness.
This was the rule of the ancient competition. One couldn't impersonate, couldn't replace … Of course, it was just a general idea. One couldn't completely expose one's family background. There were three powerful people here, and under the constraints of the rules of the Interior Heaven, lying here would lead to consequences.
With a wave of his hand, a cultivator immediately responded. For a cultivator who had reached this step, even if you asked him to fake, he wouldn't know how to do it. Why bother if he lost his state of mind for no reason?
A newly promoted First Strike of Sun God stood up proudly and said in a loud voice, "I'm Duan Li of the Western Heaven, determined to destroy the Great Tao! I'm willing to accept the title of Prince of Destruction! "
Lou Xiaoyi understood. There was no need to go into detail about one's origin. His name, east, west, north, south, and the Innate Great Tao he loved were just these three rough descriptions. It also showed his identity and respected privacy.
But there were also some who didn't understand. "Prince of Destruction, what's this?"
North Wind softly explained, "In ancient times, when a cultivator was unique in a certain field and achieved extraordinary results, people would often give him the title of 'Child of the Heavenly Dao', 'Child of the Heavenly Dao', 'Child of the Heavenly Dao', 'Child of the Universe', etc.
We are now competing for the Innate Daos, and there are as many as 36 of them. Directly calling them the Child of Destruction, Child of Five Elements, or Child of Yin and Yang isn't appropriate. Firstly, it's disrespectful to the Heavenly Dao, and secondly, there are other competitors. So, we'll call them princes. It means that they have the potential to inherit the throne, but there is more than one prince …
These are all ancient precedents, so it's a bit ridiculous to talk about them now. But since we're in the Interior Heaven and we're practicing the ancient methods, we can only do as the Romans do. For example, I can only be the Immemorial Prince, your rival Ma Bailu is the Yin-Yang Prince, and so on … "
Lou Xiaoyi pursed his lips. There were many things worth learning about ancient cultivation, but there were also many things that made people feel awkward. Forget it, it's not good to be too unconventional. Like what Qing Xuan said, it's safer to go with the flow and not attract attention.
"Nantian Hong Tiangang is willing to accept the position of Wanjun Prince!"
Wanjun was another name for thunder. This person was actually a cultivator of the Dao of Thunder.
"Eastern Heaven Yi Lian is willing to accept the position of Dendrobium Prince!"
"Northern Heaven Third Watch is willing to accept the position of Rooster Prince!"
"Eastern Heaven Zhi Niao is willing to accept the position of Bumei Prince!"
Dendrobium was a type of spiritual herb. It was also known as the Grass of Immortality and the Grass of Resurrection. It actually meant reincarnation.
The crowing of the rooster was the time when day and night changed. The meaning of the third watch was that I cultivated the Great Dao of Time. It was just that I used a hidden and unique term to replace it. It was a respect for the Great Dao. It was also the norm for cultivators who liked writing and writing. It was just like this person who didn't talk about people. He had to talk about this guy, this guy, this bird, this dog head, this plague. It was the same principle.
Bumei Prince referred to the Dao of Karma. Buddhism had the saying of Bumei Prince and Bumei Prince about Karma. Bumei Prince meant that there was no Karma, and the evil that he had done in the past would not be repaid. Bumei Prince meant that he understood the karma that he had received, and he clearly knew what karma he had received in the past. He had to face it calmly and never avoid it.
Therefore, this Bumei Prince not only explained the Dao he practiced, but also his attitude towards Karma.
These people spoke in a vague way, and there was a hidden meaning. Uncultured people wouldn't be able to understand. Lou Xiaoyi had a hard time listening to them, and he felt disdain in his heart. They didn't speak in human language, and had to beat around the bush!
As they introduced themselves one by one, half of them were biting on words. It was a taboo, and it was also a kind of ideological respect for the Dao of Heaven. It was also a reflection of their personality. For example, those cultivators who practiced killing, destruction, life and death, and strength would directly address themselves without any scruples. It was a kind of attitude towards cultivation.
Soon, it was Lou Xiaoyi's turn. He couldn't avoid this, and he had to try.
"Eastern Heaven Cigarette Stub is willing to accept the position of Frog Prince!"
Frog Prince? What kind of Dao was this? Even if the group of eminent monks were knowledgeable and learned from Fu Douche, they still couldn't figure out what Dao was related to frogs.
Looking at the suspicious eyes of the crowd and Qing Xuan's murderous gaze, he shook his sleeves and calmly recited:
"The frogs croak in the pond, the plum blossoms bloom in the early rain; the quiet heart has no work, only a groundless fate."
This poem accurately described the scene of the frogs croaking after the rain, and the cultivators calmly enjoying themselves. As for whether the frogs croaked or not, it might or might not. It was purely based on the mood of the listener!
It turned out to be a groundless Dao. Then, what was groundless? No one knew! This person could be recognized by Interior Heaven with this Dao. Interesting!
Lou Xiaoyi and Qing Xuan had different ideas! Qing Xuan only wanted to act in the dark, but he knew that in the cultivation world, the dark would never be able to suppress the light! If you want people to follow you, you have to take out something that will make people's eyes light up! You have to be high-profile, so high-profile that people can't see through your trump card! Only then can you successfully arouse people's curiosity!
This was not easy, and he could not use too rough means, because everyone here was elegant. It was impossible to use vulgar things to convince them. Even if he beat them until their heads were full of bumps, they would still not be convinced!
Since this was the case, you could only use an unconventional method. Don't they all like to talk about literature? Then he would also talk about it. At least he could get some recognition. In the future, even if he killed people with his sword, they would think that it was elegant killing! On the other hand, if he used violence first and then talked about literature, he would be pretending to be cultured. It was two completely different concepts.
This was the role of the first impression. It was very important.
Choosing any of the thirty-six innate Daos was a problem for him because he would meet his opponents! There was no innate Daos that only he could cultivate. Therefore, choosing any of the twelve Daos that he was proficient in was troublesome because it meant that he didn't dare to expose the other Daos!
He could only choose groundless! It could be this, it could be that. You think it's this, but I'm actually that … In order to not hinder his ability, no matter what you suspect, I'll refute you with groundless!
In fact, his groundless meant that he had all of them!
