40,000 Years of Cultivation

"You are a strong word!"

The Scarlet Heart Demon continued to counterattack, "There is a causal relationship between killing 10 million and killing 100 billion. It is either or the other! Because you are soft-hearted, false benevolence and righteousness, and you are not willing to bear the burden of'killing 10 million'. The crimes of this cause ultimately led to the death of 100 billion people! This is completely different from the example you gave!"

"So what counts as the same thing?"

Li Yao asked coldly, "For example, a policeman saw a gangster carrying live ammunition committing an attack. The gangster leveled the muzzle. He was caught off guard. He had no time to activate the firearm and had no other choice. The only solution was to catch it. Pick up an innocent little girl next to him and throw it away, slam the gangster's gun away, buy time, and then subdue the gangster!"

"Because he didn't do this and didn't throw this innocent little girl over, so everyone killed by the gangster will be counted on the police?"

"If you still think I'm messing around, what about the following example?"

"Some fanatical religious believers have taken a hundred innocent primary school students hostage and demanded that the authorities hand over one, yes, just an adult who ‘blasphemed’ their religion, let them handle it!"

"If the authorities do not hand over this adult, they will kill a hundred innocent children!"

"If the authorities insist on not surrendering adults, and fanatical religious believers really kill the children, are all a hundred innocent children killed by the authorities?"

"There is always a'causal relationship' in the balance of life between an adult and a hundred children? If an adult dies, the child does not have to die. If the adult does not die, the child must die. This is always That's it, right?"

"Is it because of this that the uncompromising authorities are murderers?"

"Oh! What kind of a silly fallacy?"

"It was the fire, the bandits and the fanatical religious who killed people, not the firefighters, the police, and the authorities!"

"So, even if I didn't choose the strategy of'detonating the Karan Star', I just made a choice that firefighters, police, and the authorities would all make, and then the line of defense collapsed completely, and a thousand people really died. Hundreds of millions and even more people, it was the Holy League invaders who killed them, not me who tried my best to fight the enemy!"

"If I really are in the position of Wu Yingqi, no matter how dangerous the environment I face, I will not break through the bottom line of mankind. I will fight like a true cultivator. If I fail, I will retreat and regroup. Keep fighting! If in the process, countless ordinary people died in the flames of war, then I will keep all the accounts on the heads of the holy ally, and one day, I will return it a hundred times! If I can’t do it, the only reason is, I died in the battle halfway!"

"I believe that in addition to immortal cultivators with ulterior motives, and a very small number of people who are bewitched by them, ordinary people with normal intelligence and basic thinking skills know who should count this account and who is the real one. murderer!"

The Scarlet Heart Demon scratched his head and sneered.

Li Yao took a deep breath and said categorically, "There is no need to sneer to cover up your paleness and weakness. Do you know, what is the biggest problem with this so-called choice?"

"The biggest problem is that human life cannot be measured. It is priceless! What is already infinite, multiplied by a hundred times, the result is the same!"

"It's not that the lives of two people combined must be more important than one; it cannot be said that a man born from a wealthy, handsome, and extremely smart, his life must be more than a poor and mediocre person. The civilians are more valuable!"

"The 8.2 million innocent people on Karan, and the 100 billion innocent people behind, their life value is the same!"

"If you deny this, today you can'sacrifice' 8.2 million people for one hundred billion people; tomorrow you can also sacrifice one hundred billion people for one trillion people; the day after tomorrow, you can sacrifice one trillion people. One person, to sacrifice another trillion people-anyway, the value of the former is a little bit higher!"

"In this way, the foundation of human society's existence is gone, and the number of people who will eventually die will far exceed the figure of 8.2 million or even 100 billion!"

"Don't be alarmist there!"

The Scarlet Heart Demon sneered, "Anything you talk nonsense is just a conjecture, I don't believe it!"

"You do not believe?"

Li Yao also sneered coldly, "I'm very disappointed, I'm really disappointed! You are my clone anyway, everyone just has different positions, and the level of intelligence should be almost the same? But why did your IQ slip so fast? It's a cliff. The style is falling! Can't even break Su Changfa's simple rhetoric?"

"Could it be that after becoming a cultivator, people will become stupid?"

"Having such a stupid clone of you... I really despise myself!"

"What did you say!"

The Scarlet Heart Demon was furious, and rushed to the tree of memory of Ou Yezi like a monkey, spreading his teeth and dancing his claws, and roared loudly, "You speak clearly, what rhetoric I can't break? If I don't speak clearly today, I will never end with you!"

"It's very simple."

Li Yao calmly said, "Su Changfa just said that Wu Yingqi saved 100 billion people by blowing up Karan Star and sacrificing 8.2 million people. It sounds like a very good deal, right?"

The Scarlet Heart Demon nodded vigorously: "It's a good deal!"

"Then did he tell us how many people died in the final war between the "True Human Empire" against the Holy League and the "Xinghai Republic Orthodox Government"?"

"This is a super civil war that engulfed hundreds of big worlds. It's not too much to just kill hundreds of billions of people, right?"

"How could a civil war break out, why would the Holy League enter the void?"

"It's because Wu Yingqi's coup has severely torn the stability of Xinghai Republic and caused a serious confrontation between the cultivators and the cultivators!"

"How can the coup succeed? If we trace the root cause, it has a lot to do with the explosion of Karan Star!"

"So, is it possible to say that Wu Yingqi bombed Karan Star, sacrificed 8.2 million people and saved 100 billion people, but in the end-it led to the deaths of hundreds of billions or even trillions of people? ?"

Scarlet Heart Demon: "This—"

Li Yao: "You can see it too. This is a bad account that is not clear how to calculate it, because'human life' shouldn't be used for calculation! As a cultivator, as long as I can abide by the bottom line and do my best Yes, blooming Dao Xin, then no matter what the final outcome is, I can have a clear conscience!"

"How about it, immortal cultivator, are you satisfied with my positive answer?"

The Scarlet Heart Demon lay on the branch, his eyes rolled around for a long time, and he suddenly chuckled and said, "Forget it, go around, or you got around in! I shouldn't be able to take advantage of you at all. !"

"In theory, maybe you are right. Human life ‘should’ is priceless, and human life ‘should not’ be used for comparison and weighing!"

"But this is just theory, it's just ‘should’!"

"No matter what you say, human life is valuable. In the real world, there is a difference between high and low. It can be used, and it is often compared and weighed by people!"

"Hey, the lives of two people are not necessarily more valuable than the lives of one person, but the lives of those rich and young and big people who are born are of course worth more than a poor boy from a poor and humble background!"

"Every human life has his value, nothing more than high or low!"

"The true human empire must be like this, but your beloved Star Federation, wow, what a free, democratic, and equal place. You have parliaments, elections, the Basic Law of Comprehension, and the core concept of protecting ordinary people. Willing to be a cultivator of the sword of human civilization, it's a **** wonderland on earth, a paradise!"

"Isn't that the case?"

"For you who came from a magic treasure tomb, as a trash bug, struggling to survive all the way, and after all the hardships to grow up by chance, you still need me to find a few examples from the depths of your memory and throw your face away? ?"

"You are lucky, now you are the Nascent Soul monk, you are a big man who calls the wind and the rain, and you can sit on the same level as the Federal Speaker, chat and laugh, of course, you can easily talk about these theoretical bullshits!"

"If you have no adventure, you are still the garbage bug struggling for survival in the magic treasure tomb, facing the dark, cold, cruel reality, can you still say such things? Would you still believe in the ideals of the cultivator? ?"

"No, you will definitely become a cultivator!"

"You and I know that this is not a vicious guess, but a fact!"

"I was originally in the depths of your soul. The condensate of negative emotions, dark memories, and cold reality is the'half of Li Yao'! My choice is part of your choice!"

"Acknowledge this, some of you have already recognized the cruel reality and become a cultivator!"

This sentence accurately hit the deepest part of Li Yao's soul.

Li Yao was silent.

The Scarlet Heart Demon fought back and laughed: "This is the problem of your cultivators. You dare not face the reality at all! Your boastful style, no matter how moving and perfect it sounds, is all illusory in theory. '! We cultivators are the warriors who really dare to face the bleak reality!"

"you are wrong."

Li Yao was surrounded by invisible flames, and the depths of his brain bloomed with golden light, like a scorching sun piercing the clouds, brightening up, an unbreakable golden battle fort rose from his mind!

He paused and said softly, "We cultivators, by no means are afraid to face reality!"

"Of course we know how dark, cold, and heavy reality is!"

"But we will never be as timid and weak as your immortal cultivators, unprincipled succumbing to the weight of reality and becoming slaves to reality!"

"No matter how dark, cold and heavy the reality is, we will follow our ideals and use our avenue to change it little by little!"

"As long as countless people work together, ideals-can become reality!"
