Chapter 89, a thunderbolt on a sunny day
"Xuanqi Realm" plus Zhang Lu only has seven employees, what can be called "Xuanqi Seven Sons", "Xuanqi Seven Heroes" or something, among which there are two immortals who have the best relationship with Zhang Lu, that is, Suo Tai and Lu Lingyin. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
The root cause of this is because these two have been responsible for the guidance of the Tianyuan world, Lu Lingyin played Taiyi, Taishi and Taisu for three days, and Suo Tai played the three demons of Taizhen, Taizhi and Tai Crazy - of course, there are occasional shifts - they have all guided Zhang Lu, and after Zhang Lu ascended to the sky, he was naturally closer to these two. Interpersonal relationships have always been interactive, if you are respectful to others, others will naturally look at you differently, so Suo and Lu have relatively frequent daily contacts with Zhang Lu.
But there is a world of difference in the working attitudes of these two people, Suo Tai is almost a workaholic - naturally in terms of the past immortals of the "Xuanqi Realm", he is far worse than Zhang Lu - so although there is no clear organizational hierarchy and structure, he automatically takes on the overall assignment and coordination work, and can be regarded as the head of the department of the "Xuanqi Realm". Lu Lingyin is relatively lazy in doing things, and the work that can be completed with one point of energy will never add two more points of energy, not seeking merit, but seeking no fault. Through the side understanding, Zhang Lu knew that this immortal was an old-timer in the department, and he had to be at least more than 30,000 years old, perhaps because with the growth of age, the old immortal's habitual lazy personality had gradually formed. Suo Tai once judged that it was estimated that it would not be long before Lu Lingyin would inevitably resign—this was also the reason why he urged Zhang Lu from time to time to speed up the progress of his work, and hurriedly trained and lobbied a few new immortals to take over.
As Zhang Lu said, although Lu Lingyin is in charge of the Qingxuan World, he is basically in a laissez-faire state, and he has neither thought of dissolving the locks of the Qingxuan World, nor has he planned to absorb traversers in the Qingxuan World. Therefore, Zhang Lu projected into Qingxuan and pointed out the people who followed the wind path, which was theoretically an ultra vires act, but he didn't think about how to explain to Lu Lingyin in advance-did she really need to explain? Does she really care?
But I didn't expect that as soon as the arrangement was completed, returning to the super three-dimensional universe, Lu Lingyin came directly to the door. Zhang Lu couldn't help but say in his heart, you are a cat, not a dog, why are you so protective of food? Hearing the other party's bad words, he asked in person: "What can you help? How are you going to help?"
He didn't make up a perfect reason in advance, and he was forced to ask in a hurry, so he had to tell the truth - of course, only part of the truth, and he must be tight-lipped about the sealing of the earth. So Zhang Lu said with a smile: "Of course I understand Qingxuan's situation, but don't you think that there is a huge nether realm, and there are many cultivators, so it is always sealed there, and no one has ascended to the sky, what a waste of resources......"
Lu Lingyin spread her hands: "Then what should I do? Do you have the ability to solve this problem? What are you going to do?"
Zhang Lu pondered the words and replied cautiously: "I know that the big guys don't like Qingxuan's cultivation and plan to let them rot on the ground, but this is not a long-term solution...... I plan to use the demonic dragon aura of the source of the ban, like this, to pile up a 'Pure World Sect' that follows the wind to completely transform the cultivation realm of the other world......"
Lu Lingyin tightened her eyebrows, stared at Zhang Lu's expression fiercely with a pair of cat's eyes, and said word by word: "If the anger leaks slightly, the other world will be banned, and the cultivators are changeable and cold-blooded, it can be seen that there is an innate restraining relationship between the dragon clan and the human race, can that be used? Are you not afraid that if you absorb the anger with the wind, will you really become some kind of world-destroying demon? Or do you actually plan to completely destroy Qingxuan?!"
Zhang Lu hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Where can I be so cruel, let's not say that the cultivators of Qingxuan may not all have the crime of killing, after all, mortals are innocent, if the other world is destroyed, can mortals be able to be alone?" Although the immortals regard the beings in the lower realm as grass mustard, their attitude is still different from that of the Qingxuan cultivation realm after all-otherwise Zhang Lu would not have the face to blame them - basically upholding the three principles of not harming, not hindering, and ignoring them. Among them, the practice of the "Xuanqi Realm" is slightly more radical, in order to select and cultivate new immortals who are also their own successors, they will take the initiative to meddle in the affairs of the lower realm, but under normal circumstances, they will also attack the cultivators, or reward or punish, and will never wantonly kill and ravage.
For example, immortals are like modern humans, and nether humans are like wild animals, humans may observe and study those animals, catch a few and try to raise them, and even kill some individuals that may affect the continuation and development of the entire population, but the law strictly prohibits killing wild animals for no reason. Of course, there is no government in the sky, there is no law, and the immortals are purely self-restrained, derived from unwritten social morality.
For example, normal human beings in modern society are absolutely different from the ancients, and the social environment and education have required them and warned them that it is wrong to kill people, and of course, special circumstances - such as war, such as self-defense - are different. Even without the constraints of the law, the vast majority of human beings would not think of taking the lives of others, and the immortals as a whole have a much higher moral level than mortals.
There are all kinds of people in the mortal world, and many strange things can be found, but from people to immortals, the body and mind are cleansed, which is equivalent to a screening, those who are too selfish, despise norms by nature, or have more serious violent tendencies, cannot really break through the realm and soar. Because the whole process of cultivation is, in short, to first conform to nature and then detach from nature, to be too self-centered, to dare to ignore the norm -- the way of heaven and earth is also a norm -- and to be too easily excited and lose oneself, of course, it will be difficult to cultivate the path of immortals.
Therefore, Zhang Lu can understand very well the emperor party who sealed the earth back then. In fact, it is much simpler and easier for them to completely destroy the earth than to make such a big seal, and there will be no future troubles, but they still have to work hard to take the latter path, why is this? In the face of millions of earthlings who are even more similar in appearance to themselves, and even more similar to the appearance of the mortal intelligent beings from whom they come from, can you really kill them? Hateful Fuxi and Nuwa, why don't you make some guys with the same body and snake tail as you, so that I will have no psychological burden to destroy the earth......
People have hearts, and immortals also have hearts, and this heart does not refer to a certain blood circulation organ, but to the superego part of self-consciousness. If a person obliterates his conscience, he will be lost, furious, and even insane, and if an immortal obliterates his conscience, he will easily go mad and even lose enough cohesion for energy and mind - to put it bluntly, the immortal will accelerate its fall. And even if it hasn't fallen yet, it will definitely not be tolerated by its own kind and will be attacked by a group.
If there is only one immortal, the emperor, he may grit his teeth and be ruthless, and completely kill the earthlings, but fortunately, they are a group, and as a group, they want to erase their conscience together and do extremely evil things that are not tolerated by other immortals, it is estimated that the vote will definitely not pass.
Immortals regard the mundane as ants, so when an ant is in danger, the immortals who are not animal protectors may look at it cold-bloodedly, but under normal circumstances, they will not take the initiative to give it a good ......
Zhang Lu also once imagined that the reason why the Emperor Party banned the earth was perhaps to let the people of the earth fend for themselves in places that he couldn't see - as long as I didn't take the initiative to kill them, there would be nothing psychologically impossible.
During the period of time when he joined the "Xuanqi Realm", he was entrusted by Sanwu to collect a lot of historical materials of human beings in the Nether Realm, and after Sanwu's research and comparison, he found a very interesting common denominator. That is, according to the general law of the development of human society, the vast majority of the lower realms are in a social state similar to the Middle Ages on the earth, and from ignorance to enlightenment, from the birth of civilization to the Middle Ages, the speed is generally faster than that of the earth.
It is not known how long ago Fuxi and Nuwa founded human beings according to the time of the earth, but judging from the archaeological discoveries on the earth, it should not be earlier than 200,000 years ago -- that is the approximate time period when Homo sapiens was born. After that, it would not take more than twenty or thirty thousand years for them to teach the first batch of cultivators, and then the entire army was wiped out and the earth was sealed. From this point to the earthlings entering the civilized society, it took at least more than 100,000 years to go from the original primitive society and slave society to the medieval feudal society, and the shortest time was three to five thousand years.
However, in other worlds, although it is impossible to find out how long it took from the existence of Homo sapiens to the birth of civilization, in most cases it took no more than a thousand years to enter the Middle Ages after the birth of civilization - of course, time passes at different speeds in different worlds, which is the conclusion of the corresponding Earth year.
However, since then, social development has almost come to a standstill, and almost all three-dimensional otherworlds have not produced a period of rapid progress in social productivity similar to the industrial revolution on the earth, and the natural social form will not have a fundamental change. The longest medieval society, calculated in terms of earth time, has lasted for more than 100,000 years, a full 3,000 generations......
In addition, there is another discovery, that is, the vast majority of other worlds are not as fragmented as the earthlings, and the populations are numerous - this is easy to understand, in most cases, high-level cultivators can set foot in every corner of the world suitable for human habitation, and can easily break down the barriers between races caused by the geographical environment - and the wars between groups and countries, no matter how frequent or intense, are not the same as those on the earth. In other words, before the Middle Ages, there was no place more backward than the earth, and no mortal was more ferocious than the earthlings fighting each other.
Probably in the eyes of the Emperor Gu Immortals, after sealing the path of cultivating immortals, the earthlings will gradually wither and decay in the process of barbarism, backwardness and vendetta against each other, even if there is no such situation as the demon race in the Void World, they will still move towards final extinction step by step. As for the earthlings, they were able to develop a unique mechanical civilization in iron-blooded battles and difficult explorations, and they prospered after the industrial revolution, because it was unprecedented, and they must have been unexpected......
Pulling it back, Zhang Lu almost swore to Lu Lingyin that he had no intention of killing the humans in the Qingxuan World, and he said that I would observe the movement of Suifeng at any time, and if there was any deviation in cultivation and all the instability of my mind, I would immediately withdraw the exercises I had taught to Suifeng, and I would definitely not let Suifeng really become a generation of demons. Lu Lingyin glanced at him with slanted eyes, and her face seemed to be full of two big words - "don't believe".
"Although the dragons of the other world are dead, there is still the tyrannical aura of the dragon clan in the corpses, if you want to introduce it into the human body, how can it not be deviated? I use the word 'deviation', the degree is too light, what will happen, no one can imagine, but after practicing with the wind, his temperament has changed greatly, and he takes pleasure in killing, this is a certain thing. What do you have to turn anger into vitality that humans can absorb?"
Zhang Lu smiled: "I have my own secret method, so you don't have to ask more...... I can't guarantee 100% success, but I can be sure. ”
Immortals never communicate with each other about their own exercises, because most of them come from different worlds, limited by the laws of heaven and earth, and there are extremely subtle differences in the distribution of qi and veins in the body and the operation of true qi. Although after ascending to immortality, life forms have been transformed, but the differences between individuals are still preserved, and the exchange of exercises is definitely of little significance.
And the immortals are accustomed to self-cultivation, and rarely get together to learn from each other's strengths, otherwise it will inevitably produce a certain social form, but the current situation of scattered sand in the sky shows that the feasibility of communication is extremely low, and the vast majority of immortals are accustomed to hiding their secrets. So since this is the case, Zhang Lu naturally will not tell Lu Lingyin about his unique methods.
Besides, even if he doesn't want to hide his secrets, he can't say it. How can I say that? Because I have a very small amount of dragon genes in my body, I produce a certain amount of antibodies, and I will contain these antibodies in the exercises taught to Suifeng to ensure that the probability of success of the experiment is not equal to zero? Isn't that the same as actively exposing my identity as a "remnant of the earth"?
So, my exercises, what do you ask more?
Lu Lingyin didn't stop there, she looked at Zhang Lu's eyes more and more unkindly, but it seemed that there were some words that were inconvenient to say, so she just pouted and panted there. Zhang Lu smiled at her: "Don't worry, I am fully responsible for what I do...... Oh, there's still something busy, so I'll take my leave. "Turning around, I pulled my legs and wanted to slip away.
"Wait," Lu Lingyin called Zhang Lu from behind, then hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind and asked, "Are you sure that you are making such a big move in the Qingxuan World to bring up those dragon corpses buried in the ground?"
Zhang Lu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and haha: "Why did I get out those dragon corpses......
Lu Lingyin stared at his eyes and said word by word: "In order to break the seal and release the place where you came from!"
As if a thunderbolt hit his head on a sunny day, Zhang Lu felt a "buzz" in his head......
