40,000 Years of Cultivation

"It's not a problem, I thought about it a long time ago."

Lu Qingchen said lightly, "We can enrich the Saint Allies into the corrupt bureaucratic system of the empire, replace those greedy and stupid immortals, and restore local order as quickly as possible."

Li Yao's heart was cold for a while: "What did you say?"

"Holy ally, we still control a large number of holy ally, have you forgotten?"

Lu Qingchen said lightly, "I admire the free will of human beings just like you, so I absolutely can't do things like depriving human emotion and will, even if the other party is a cultivator.

"But the brains of these holy allies have long been empty and become flesh and blood puppets who only faithfully execute orders. To be honest, I don't know how to treat them. Don't you think that it is worth a good'waste utilization'?

"When playing the role of the'puppet king', I learned a lot from Fuxi, including how to implant instructions on a large scale in the brains of the Shengmeng. Now I have swallowed so much information, data and rules from Fuxi. , To further enhance the ability to control the Holy League, we can write some new, special instructions, so that the Holy League will become the most incorruptible officials and the most just arbitrators, and then throw them into chaos on a large scale. To the worlds of the empire, the deterrence of the Federal Expeditionary Force, coupled with the effective control of the Holy League bureaucracy, can solve all problems in the shortest time.

"On the other hand, when these holy ally people penetrate into ordinary people with seven emotions and six desires and immortal cultivators, after a long time of contact and infiltration, perhaps their lost humanity will slowly recover. Isn't this a killer kill?"

"..."

Lu Qingchen’s shocking suggestion caused Li Yao to be astonished and silent again for a long time, and said with a wry smile, “It turns out that you had this idea. Use the Federation to manage the Holy ally, and then use the Holy ally to manage the empire, or say , Let the Holy Alliance and the Empire contain each other, and the Federation can profit and control everything.

"The plan is good, but I really want to know, if the empires are dissatisfied with the control of the holy alliance, what do you do? Kill those disobedient empires, send more holy allies to act as managers, and implement high-pressure rule? More holy allies aroused more dissatisfaction and resistance, what should we do, send double holy allies, or the federal army from the sky, directly suppressed by force? Such a vicious circle, until the end, everyone is expressionless Under the management of the sacred, hard-hearted and unsentimental, the so-called "order" is formed on the surface, while the federals are above the administrators of the sacred alliance. Another privileged class?

"Lv Qingchen, Lv Qingchen, have you really thought about every word you say? Don’t you think that this approach will only turn the Star Alliance into a copy of the Covenant Alliance, and you yourself Another Fuxi, or rather, your will is still entangled and corroded by Fuxi's logic, and eventually you become Fuxi's slave?"

"Speaking of it, you just don't believe me."

Lu Qingchen sighed with great regret and loneliness, and said, "I know that there are thousands of troops and horses bombing indiscriminately outside, and at the risk of delaying time, I took the initiative to explain everything to you in order to gain your trust. , I didn't expect that I had thrown out such a foolproof plan, you still don't want to believe it.

"I understand. It's not a matter of planning, but a matter of people. You just don't believe me. No matter what I say, you are playing the piano against the cows."

"You are wrong, Lu Qingchen, you are really wrong, I really don't believe you, I, I just, I just... don't believe in myself."

Li Yao was rippling with deep and painful ripples, really wanting to show the deepest gloom of the soul to Lu Qingchen, "In fact, I have thought about everything you thought of, including the most extreme ones. Rude, simple, fast, and effective approach.

"This is not even a present thing, but a long time ago, at the moment when I took control of the Jinjing Tower, I was almost captured by the remnants of Jinjing Tower and Wu Yingqi 3.0, reduced to their slaves, and completely transformed into a dark version. Li Yao.

"At that time, I couldn't help thinking, since the Golden Crystal Pagoda can make use of the increase of the stars to make the entire emperor hear my will, then why can't I broadcast the Taoism of the cultivator to the entire emperor and even the entire universe' ', all of a sudden, countless cultivators are turned into cultivators. Isn't this a complete solution to the problem once and for all?

"But I thought for a long time, repeatedly entangled with my own demons, entangled countless days and nights, and finally gave up such thoughts.

"Believe me, there are no shortcuts in this world. Every seemingly free gift is secretly marked with a price. Everything born of deception, coercion, and violence will surely be destroyed by a hundredfold deception, coercion, and violence. Among.

"Cultivators are not brainwashed and can be washed out, but they have to slowly realize on their own and spend a lifetime to cultivate. I can use the Jinjing Pagoda to brainwash the entire imperial capital's cultivators into so-called'cultivators' in a short time. , But I can’t guarantee that they will never change, awaken, or do not want to use my methods, nor can I guarantee that the hundreds of immortal cultivators in the world other than the imperial capital will have any thoughts after knowing my methods, and I The least guarantee is that after I have tasted the sweetness of Jinjingta, will I understand the taste and use Jinjingta to do some more terrible things, to instill more noble ideas in the public, and then more noble. Thoughts, and then more noble thoughts, eventually caused everyone to lose themselves, lose all selfishness, and become my slaves.

"And I am neither omniscient nor omnipotent, nor immortal. I don't believe that I can completely control the power of the golden tower. After upgrading the power of the golden tower again and again, I will be completely lost in the deepest darkness of the golden tower. In the end, there were only two results. Either I was killed by all the heroes of Xinghai who wanted to be free and united, and I was ruined and fouled for years; or I used the golden crystal tower to maintain the "absolute light" that lasted thousands of years. , Human civilization has completely lost its freedom and vitality, and eventually, it will be destroyed together with my death.

"No matter what kind of result, it’s not what I want, so the wisest way is to don’t touch the seductive but extremely evil power of the Jin Jing Pagoda from the beginning, and don’t touch those you know you can’t control. thing!

"Really, Lu Qingchen, what am I going to say you can understand. The Federation did not rise for the sake of rising, nor did we cultivate for the sake of cultivation, but for hegemony. The reason why the Star Federation wants to rise is why we want it. Sprinkle the brilliance of the road of cultivation to the entire sea of ​​stars because we believe that we hold the most pious beliefs and firmly believe that the Star Federation has a set of the most just, most reasonable, and most advanced system of human civilization so far. We believe in the people of the Federation and Cultivators are the most kind and can best represent the word "justice". We are not only the sharpest swords of human civilization, but also the children of thousands of ordinary people. We treat all mankind as compatriots and brothers and sisters. We Going to the center of Xinghai is not to kill and destroy, but to help the brothers, sisters and the old folks here, and bring them peace, happiness and hope!

"At least, that's the reason why I jumped all the way to the center of the star sea, spared my soul and life, and threw myself into the most dangerous Longtan Tiger Lair to fight in blood again and again. I don't just want the nine stars to raise the dragon battle flag. Flying high in the middle of the sea of ​​stars, I hope the people in the middle of the sea of ​​stars will know that there is such a Federation of Stars, and what life is like for the people of the Federation, they can also be like the people of the Federation!

"And I believe that not only me, but also Ding Lingdang, and my disciples, there are thousands of cultivators and ordinary soldiers of the Federal Expeditionary Force, they are all just like me, not just for The survival and the bright future of the Federation is more for the survival and bright future of all mankind. Only then is it willing to make a desperate decision, and only willing to gamble on everything, go on a solitary expedition, and create the greatest of the 100,000-year glorious history of human civilization. miracle!

"You keep talking about the highest interest of the Federation, but do you understand that the highest interest of the Federation does not lie in putting the Nine-Star Rising Dragon Battle Standard in the entire universe, but in the entire universe, everyone in the universe can be as full of light as the Federation. Same positive, same ability to pursue their own happiness, same belief in the existence of justice, believe that even if there is lingering darkness in front of us, but the dawn of hope is ahead! If everyone really thinks so, it will fly above them. It doesn’t really matter what the flag is, whether it’s the Nine-Star Rising Dragon Battle Flag or the Three-Star Blitz Battle Flag!”

This time, it was Lu Qingchen's turn to be speechless by Li Yao, and his face was uncertain.

"Banner and philosophy, which is more important?"

Li Yao did not relax and continued earnestly, "The Nine-Star Rising Dragon Battle Flag is Sesame, and the idea of ​​the Federation and the Avenue of Cultivation is the watermelon. What you did is purely picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon. Zhu'Ah! If you really follow your plan, the federal people treacherously stabbed the dying heart at the most fragile and chaotic time in the middle of the star sea, causing the death of hundreds of millions of innocent people, then who would believe it? Us? Who still believes that the cultivator represents justice and the avenue of cultivation represents hope, and who still believes that the federal people will become benevolent and better rulers, who can lead human civilization to a brighter future?

"No, no one will believe us when the time comes. Not only all the surviving immortal cultivators and ordinary people in the center of Xinghai will not believe us, they will only hibernate deeply, accumulate greater strength, and overthrow it at all costs. We; even our own people, those cultivators and expeditionary soldiers who firmly believe that we are fighting for justice, will doubt ourselves, become crazy, and collapse the Taoist heart.

"At that time, not only will our rule over the center of Xinghai be unsustainable, even in the corner of Xinghai, the ruling foundation of the Xingyao Federation will be disintegrated, because we are not a country relying on violent cohesion and high-handed rule, but relying on a common one. The ideas come together, the skin does not exist, the Mao will be attached, and the ideas that countless martyrs and compatriots use their lives to pour their lives have been stifled by you. How can the Federation shine its proud light?"
