"As for what abilities your soul has, it's up to you to develop it yourself. Even a very weak soul can have incomparable effects on certain occasions that other souls cannot match. This kind of development is related to personal talent.
, I don’t know how to develop it specifically, after all, I am a demon clan, and I don’t have the skills of your innate soul.”
Jidao nodded: "Qing, do you believe that I can really turn over? Even if I have a soul, talent and other things, I really have no confidence at all."
Qing thought about it and realized that it was right. People at the age of Jida have been despised since childhood. It would be abnormal to not have any sense of inferiority in their hearts.
"You don't have to worry about this. There is a saying that is good, don't bully young people into poverty. There were people similar to you before, but in the end they became indomitable big shots."
Logically speaking, there are not many such examples. Many geniuses were buried before and were discovered later when they met a discerning master. And speaking of the souls of the extreme, the soul stone alone has
With such a large amount of energy, there is no need to worry about subsequent development.
Seeing that Ji Dao still seemed unconvinced, Qing continued to speak.
"This happened about 7,000 years ago. At that time, I had not yet become an emperor, but my strength was not bad. One day I met a young man who was only a few years older than you. I
People heard that this young man's name was Shen. When he was young, he got a treasure and was discovered by an elder from a large sect. The elder then wanted to embezzle the treasure, so he led a team of people.
When he arrived at their family, how could their family's strength compare with that of a large sect? So he also handed over the treasures, but the pair did not leave immediately, but took away basically all the valuable things in his family.
After being robbed, that family soon fell into decline."
Jidao seemed to listen very seriously. Qing smiled when he saw his appearance, and continued: "But the young man was not discouraged. Instead, he swallowed his anger and worked hard for a hundred years, and finally led this group of people to defeat that
The sect has finally avenged its original revenge. I don’t know much about the process, but the general situation is like this. You see, even if you have nothing, you can eventually reach the top with your own efforts, let alone you.
You still have your sister and everyone who loves you, so what do you have to worry about?"
"Qing." Jidao paused and wanted to say something but stopped.
"You can ask if you want. If your mind is not corrected, it will have a great impact on your future cultivation."
For a young man like Ji Dao, even though he is a human race, he is also very keen to answer his questions, because Ji Dao can really make him feel a little interested. Although it may dissipate later, it is enough for him.
"What is the purpose of our practice?"
Jidao's tone was very low. After hearing such a story, his entire facial expression was not happy. His brows were furrowed and his eyes were a little blurry. Clearly, this was a sign of confusion. Jidao must have his own thoughts.
, your own feelings.
"The purpose varies from person to person. Some people do it for their own dignity, just like Shen. Some people do it to protect the people they love, and some people just do it for reputation and status. This is the point.
It’s not allowed. But don’t worry, no matter what the purpose is, as long as you have a purpose, it will not have an impact on the cultivation process, but it may have an impact on the direction of cultivation, so you’d better set a positive purpose.
If you fall into an evil path in the future, you will be doomed."
"We practice to protect the ones we love and to help the weak. Does this necessarily mean depriving others and benefiting ourselves?"
Being asked this question by Ji Dao, Qing felt a little strange. The young man in front of him seemed to have different ideas.
I only heard Ji Dao continue to say:
"It is a large sect, and countless young people will come there to study, carrying the expectations of their families. Like me, they use all their strength to come to a good place where their families can be happy.
They should be proud. They were full of hope when they came, but when this sect
What will they feel when they are destroyed? Why is this? Why must a person's revenge be achieved by depriving them of hope? Qing, if a person wants to achieve something, he must deprive others of their hope.
method to achieve it? And it is an innocent person."
Qing was stunned for a moment by the question. He glanced at Jidao. The latter's face was full of confusion. He looked at Qing blankly, eager to get an answer from him.
But this must be the first time he has been asked such a question.
Qing Chong changed his mind about the life of the extreme, and then he realized it clearly.
Ji Dao has been ostracized for many years, and his feeling of hope must be much deeper than that of his peers. This kind of thinking will lead him to think more about problems from people who are similar to himself. Although Shen is also similar to him,
But maybe the Yakuza doesn't agree with his approach.
"But if we don't do this, wouldn't this kind of family feud not have to be avenged?"
Qing asked back, this is a very important question, yes, it is impossible not to take revenge. This kind of deep hatred cannot be solved by forbearance. Seeing the family that they were familiar with in the past decline like this, anyone will feel extremely angry. If you don't take revenge,
It's not sympathy for those weak, but my own cowardice!
"Then he could just kill that elder. Why involve the entire sect?"
Jidao seemed to have already thought of his words, his face was calm, and his hands kept making small movements. It was clear at a glance that his heart was definitely not calm.
"If you kill an elder, will they let you go? I'm afraid they won't chase you to the ends of the earth. For such a large sect, you still have to keep your face, otherwise everyone will bully you in the future."
This seems to be an obvious truth, but Qing can't figure out why Ji Dao doesn't understand it. Is he still too stupid and naive?
"What's the difference between doing this and the group of bandits who destroyed his family?"
"..." Qing didn't know what to say now. He couldn't help but start to look at the person in front of him again. This kid had very clear ideas, but his thoughts were so different from those of normal people.
Thinking about how the opponent is doing, do you just let the opponent fight because he will be injured during the battle?
Yes, there is indeed no difference in essence. Those "bandits" were also afraid that the family might retaliate in the future, so they cut off all their resources, which ultimately led to their downfall.
In Ji Dao's mind, what Shen did was simply worse. They just robbed the household items, which ultimately led to the downfall of the family. It can be said that no one died directly because of this incident. Of course, there will be no deaths later.
It’s unknown.
But Shen directly wiped out an entire sect. Who knows how many people died in this battle?
Qing lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally said solemnly: "Jidao, you can't practice with this kind of thinking. I have to admit that you are right. There is indeed no difference in essence between this approach. I also admire you very much.
Being able to think of this level at the age of sixteen shows that as long as you achieve success in cultivation, you will definitely help the weak and uphold justice. This is also very gratifying to me. But the world of cultivators is inherently cruel. If you do not deprive others,
Others will come to take it away from you. At that time, the people you want to protect and the people you love will suffer a cruel fate because of your temporary kindness. For the sake of all the people behind you, you must also be ruthless, no matter what
What did you do?"
Jidao seemed a little disappointed and a little unwilling. He looked at the door. The sound of insects was still echoing. The moonlight could no longer shine into his house. Is the practice he had been looking forward to like this?
"I don't want this. If the world of cultivators is so cruel and ruthless, I don't want to be infected by him."
Qing could already see clearly that the boy in front of him was kind-hearted in his nature. No matter who he treated, he had a deep kindness in his heart.
Qing admitted that in the thousands of years he had lived, only the Jidao had reached this level. Qing had seen some demon monks who also had kind natures, and all ended up with no bones left.
Survive and become a stepping stone for others.
"You are not suitable for cultivation. One day, you will pay an extremely painful price for your kindness..."
Qing Qing's voice gradually became deeper, and he covered his head with his right hand. Unseen by Ji Dao, his expression gradually turned sad. He had seen too many such examples, and in Ji Dao
He saw the shadows of those people in Tao.
"That's it..." Jidao murmured, his eyes just kept staring at the beam, not knowing what he was thinking.
Regardless of whether he will get a tragic ending, Ji Dao will definitely embark on the path of cultivation. This is what he has always expected, and he cannot give up halfway.
