There was a brief silence in the venue, as if time had stood still.

The son of the Flame King's important minister also knew very well what kind of weight his words had, and he was deliberately silent for a few seconds, waiting for everyone to digest the brief words just now.

The so-called elemental power is essentially an evil demon from outside the sky.

I believe that the vast majority of people will only regard it as nonsense, and only a very small number of people will know a little about it. Next, he will face a wave of cross-examination, but he has been prepared for it.

As a famous dignitary, Kangping was exposed to many taboo knowledge that ordinary people could not access in their lifetime. And the control of the flame elemental has been instinctive for as long as he can remember.

However, the more he learned, the more he felt a deep fear of this power that ruled the world.

That's not the power that humans should have...... At first, it was only a vague and vague intuitive cognition, but as he continued to flip through the forbidden books with the convenience of his identity, Kangping became more and more sure of his beliefs.

So at this time, he stood up and spoke out, in fact, expecting someone to debate with him in public.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Ye He chuckled lightly and said, "Young Master Kangping, what you said is a little funny. It is true that the Flame King is a tyrant, but what does this have to do with the Elemental Dao? When the ancient hundred schools of thought were contending, was there no tyrannical lord? Tian Fan, the faction leader of the martial arts family, killed his subordinates at every turn, causing panic in the territory, and as a result, he was the first to be swept out by the first generation of Flame King, could it be that the power of martial arts is also an evil demon?"

Kang Ping did not dwell on historical issues with Ye He, but continued his statement: "I have enough evidence to prove this. I wonder if any of you here have worked in the watchtower?"

As Kang Ping looked around, three or five people raised their hands.

The Watchtower is the elite research institute of the Flame Dynasty, and only those who have come from a loyal family are qualified to set foot in it, and the Watchtower has seven floors, and each level has extremely strict requirements for academic attainment.

The last years of the Flame Dynasty were corrupt, but only the watchtower was still clear, so although the few people who raised their hands at this time were typical relics of the Flame Dynasty, they were praised by many leaders of the rebel army.

A person who is a scholar can be looked down upon at any time.

Kang Ping smiled: "Since there are so many experts in the watchtower, it is easy to say, one of the most important tasks in the watchtower should be to watch the changes in the elements of the continent, whether it is from the perspective of the displacement of the stars, or from the discrete elements in the atmosphere, in short, watching the general trend of the world is the core mission of the watchtower, am I not wrong?"

A few people nodded.

Although Kang Ping did not enter the watchtower, the Kang family is a family of scholars, and there have been three watchtower owners in their ancestors, so it is not surprising that they have a family history.

"But have a few experts paid attention to the elemental changes in antiquity, say, 3,000 years ago?"

Bai Xiao was shocked when he heard this, three thousand years ago? If you look at the real time coordinates, it is close to ten thousand years ago. It was an era of mythology – to put it bluntly, a period of ignorance of civilization, and it was difficult to say whether there was a real human civilization.

Kang Ping actually talked to that era in one sentence?

Several watchtower experts were also a little puzzled: "Where is there a historical record 3,000 years ago? The history of mankind that can be verified is only about 2,000 years, and beyond that, it is only myths and stories, and there is no reliable archaeological support at all......

"Unless it is a precise calculation to extrapolate the situation 3,000 years ago, but since it is an extrapolation, it only has reference value, and it is difficult to be accurate. ”

Several experts discussed it, and they all felt unreasonable about Kangping's arguments.

"It's actually recorded on the seventh floor of the tower. Kang Ping said lightly, "Of course, the record is top secret, and no one is allowed to pass it on privately, otherwise even the royal nobles, even the Flame King himself will be a dead end." This is the iron law left by the original Flame King. But now that the dynasty has fallen, the iron law is naturally nullified. So I took advantage of the rare opportunity and secretly went to the seventh layer to find those top-secret records. ”

As he spoke, Kang Ping happily took out a few quaint red jade slabs from his backpack under the table and handed them over to several watchtower experts to circulate.

"Theoretically, even the first generation of the Flame King of the Wise and Divine Martial Powers could not observe the accurate data of the ancient period, but on these jade slabs, the distribution of the elements from three thousand years ago was indeed recorded......"

One of the watchtower researchers asked, "How do you make sure that the inscriptions on the jade tablets are authentic? Maybe ......?"

Before he could finish speaking, he shook his head to himself.

As a scholar qualified to enter the Tower, his knowledge was not only in the realm of the elements, but also in archaeology, and he quickly recalled the archaeological evidence of antiquity, which was corroborated by both sides, and could not come up with any strong refutation.

"But how is this done!?" the researcher asked incredulously, "It is rumored that the Lord of the Elements can gain insight into the mysteries of time and space through the elemental changes between heaven and earth, but ......"

Kang Ping said: "I don't know if this rumor is true or not, but I at least know that these data are not obtained through some techniques such as time and space backtracking, but someone has been looking down on the world and recording what he sees and hears." ”

As soon as these words came out, Bai Xiao only felt creepy, and the eyeballs that covered the sky appeared in his mind.

Overlooking the world, it is ......

Kang Ping said: "Of course, this is just my personal speculation, if I have to come up with any real evidence, I can't come up with it, but at least from the record of this jade slab, the world three thousand years ago did not have so many free elements. ”

Ye He couldn't help but retort: "This sounds too strange, what does it mean that there are not so many free elements? Three thousand years ago, could it be that there was no gold, wood, water, fire, and earth?"

Kangping said: "Of course there is, the power of the elements has always been called the power of nature, and the changes of the five elements are all derived from nature, which is undeniable. But elements and free elements are very different concepts. Three thousand years ago, no one could light a thunder fire in the palm of their hands out of thin air. ”

Ye He said: "In the history of human civilization, there is always no shortage of pioneers. The first person to invent writing, the first person to know how to use thunder and fire to preserve fire, the first person to ......"

Kang Ping interrupted: "These firsts have enough historical foreshadowing, before the invention of writing, human beings first had ethnic settlements, and there was a demand for communication. Not to mention the first person to use the thunder fire, the natural phenomena that occur around them, as long as the basic intelligence is turned on, they naturally know how to use it, and even many apes know how to use tools, so it is not surprising at all. It is an out-and-out miracle to divert the power of nature from the circulation of heaven and earth for one's own use. ”

Ye He said indifferently: "There has never been a shortage of miracles in human history, such as the white-clothed army's breakthrough of the Flame King City, isn't it a miracle?"

Kangping said: "There are deep-seated reasons behind all miracles, and the appearance of the White Army is no exception, but today I want to talk about not the White Army, but the power of the elements. ”

As he spoke, he turned his gaze back to the scholar in the watchtower and said, "Guys, do you think the elemental explosion three thousand years ago was naturally formed?"

Several scholars holding jade slabs exchanged heads and ears, but it was difficult to reach a conclusion, and after a while, there was even a faint sound of dispute.

Obviously, for scholars, the unanimity of academic views is a fantasy at all, but these scholars also know the priorities, and after arguing for a moment, one of them, who is obviously the eldest, stood up and said: "According to the record of this jade tablet, three thousand years ago, there was a sudden explosion of the elements between heaven and earth, and the power of the five elements became more intense, and it wandered to all corners between heaven and earth, which can be used by people. ”

"It is also after the elements present a free state that there is a so-called element messenger, otherwise, the so-called changes of the five elements only stay at the level of natural phenomena at most, and cannot be interfered with by human beings at will. And to say whether this elemental burst is naturally occurring, I don't think it's very likely, because it's so subtle. ”

"For example, there may be natural pure iron ore in nature, such as meteorite iron that fell from the sky, but if there is a well-polished steel sword on the ground, it can only be said to be man-made. ”

Someone in the audience asked puzzledly, "Is this elemental explosion so unusual?" Although I don't know much about the way of the elements, it seems that there are not a few explosions in history. ”

The older scholar explained: "Eruptions are different from eruptions, volcanic eruptions caused by crustal movements, tsunamise storms on the sea, these are elemental eruptions, but they are natural phenomena, this world has existed for at least a million years, tens of millions of years or even longer, during which elemental eruptions in nature occur all the time, but the power of the five elements will not be in a free state due to the eruption, let alone just right to make this free state suitable for human use." ”

After a pause, the old man seemed to be brewing his lines, and only added after a while: "If elemental explosions similar to those three thousand years ago were natural phenomena, then long before humans, there should have been other creatures capable of controlling the elements, but the fact is that even if you search through countless discoveries in archaeology, you have never found a creature that can control the elements of the five elements at a longer time. Therefore, if the record on this jade tablet is true, then it can only be assumed that the elemental event of human beings was indeed intervened by external forces. ”

As soon as this conclusion came out, the audience was in an uproar.

Even the leader of the rebel army, who represented the power of ancient heresy, was stunned by this conclusion. Because this can be called a major discovery that subverts the concept of human history, its shock is similar to being pointed at the nose and said: Your father is not your father, it is Uncle Wang next door.

And Ye He, a staunch supporter of the Elemental Sect, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard the words, and subconsciously rubbed his chin and began to brew words.

It wasn't until the venue gradually quieted down that Ye He asked, "What if it is induced by external forces? Thanks to this inducement, human beings have the ability to manipulate the five elements of nature, which makes human civilization take a big step forward." ”

Kang Ping said: "But what is the price? The thousand-year-old reign of the Flame Dynasty certainly has its glorious side, but all of us here, the reason why we are gathered in this palace today is to praise the glory of the dynasty?"

"What does the tyranny of the Flame King have to do with the Elemental Dao? Could it be that you want to say that if you control the flames, you will become a tyrant? Okay, half of the more than 200 rebel leaders in this venue today are Flame Messengers, do you want to hold them accountable first?"

Kang Ping laughed: "You are already a very ugly sophistry like this. Simply manipulating the flames certainly does not make a tyrant, but when the power of the elements fills the heavens and the earth and is used by a single man, he will inevitably become a tyrant. The Flame Dynasty has lasted for thousands of years, and in the past thousand years, how many virtuous monarchs have there been, and how many tyrants are there?"

This historical question suddenly silenced everyone.

The Flame Dynasty is indeed famous for its many tyrants, but the original Flame King was wise and martial, and while being brutal and unkind, he also carefully created a strict system that could still sit firmly on the throne even if the superior was tyrannical and unkind.

So in the past thousand years, hundreds of millions of Li people have lived miserably, but there is no way to resist...... It was not until the end of the dynasty that the various systems designed by the first generation of Flame Kings were corroded by the descendants of later generations and bureaucrats at all levels, and there was a situation where the rebel army rose up and the smoke was everywhere.

And before Kangping's statement was over, he added, "Of course, if it's just a matter of tyrants, it's not enough to make me so firmly against the Elemental Way. My reason is that this kind of power attracted by the Outer Demons is an even more dangerous poisonous bait, and once swallowed, our entire human civilization may become a vassal of the Outer Demons!"

At this point, he looked around and looked at everyone with a stern gaze, and such a gesture naturally attracted everyone's attention.

"I'm just going to ask one question here, if an elemental explosion similar to that of three thousand years ago erupts in reverse, will our civilization edifice collapse with a bang?"

As soon as this question came out, most people were confused, but the scholars in the watchtower changed color one after another, and they continued to break out in a cold sweat.

At the edge of the venue, a stout man with a strong force asked loudly, "What do you mean by reverse explosion?"

Kangping explained: "To put it simply, the elements between heaven and earth are no longer in a free state, and to put it more clearly, all elemental techniques have been abolished, and humans can no longer use fire as they please." ”

The stout man's eyes widened and said, "Then what about my family's food!?"

Kang Ping said with a smile: "This sentence really asks the key point, that's right, if there is no abundant fire, the granary of the world will be abandoned at least eight or nine times out of ten, and at that time, the hundreds of millions of living beings in this Flame Dynasty will probably starve to death." And this is a hundred times more terrifying than any tyrant. ”

No matter how mediocre the tyrant is, such as engaging in literary prison and punishing the ten tribes, as long as the world is stable and there is no war, then most of the people can still live a poor but stable life. But if there is a food shortage, then there will really be a tragic situation of changing children and eating.

Ye He said: "You are simply alarmist, the natural disaster of the elemental reverse outbreak has no value for discussion at all. Manpower is sometimes poor, and there will always be natural disasters that cannot be resisted, not to mention the reverse explosion of the elements, if a huge meteorite with a diameter of 100 miles is smashed from outside the sky, our entire continent will be destroyed, is it possible that because of the possibility of this meteorite landing, human beings will not develop?"

The more Ye He said, the more excited his tone became, and his eyes also looked around, making direct eye contact with every listener, as if he wanted to directly instill his enthusiasm into the other party's heart.

"On the contrary, we should rise to the challenge and make the elemental power more prosperous, and take all the changes between heaven and earth into our hands, we should build more magnificent towers of flame, and even create elemental pools that lead to the netherworld, so that no one can disturb the flow of elements between heaven and earth. Even the Creator himself from 3,000 years ago could no longer take back His gift to mankind!"

After speaking, Ye He let out a sigh and arched his hand towards Bai Xiao and Lan Lan, who were in the main seat of the venue: "That's all my words, if there is anything arrogant and fallacious, please Haihan." ”

Bai Xiao was silent, and Lan Lan chuckled: "It's very well said, man will win the sky, I like this theory very much." It is more interesting than human infighting, or to be the enemy of heaven and earth, and to be the enemy of the Creator. ”

Ye He couldn't help but relax when he saw Lan Lan's statement, as if he was done.

Kang Ping hurriedly persuaded: "Even if you want to be an enemy of the Creator, there is no need to deliberately work in the trap designed by others. The power of the ancient hundred schools, which one is not good for the way of the elements?"

Ye He frowned, and gradually became a little impatient with this stalker: "Trap? The food you eat is produced by the fire of abundance, the clothes you wear are woven by a fire-driven spinning machine, and even the royal palace of our parliament today, its bricks and stones are also fired by the flame element, these achievements of civilization are just traps in your mouth? The thousand-year development of human elemental civilization is all wrong in your opinion?"

Kang Ping said: "I don't deny that I am indeed suspected of being overly sensitive in this matter, but there is a question for Ye He to answer me: If the elemental power is really safe and harmless, why is the record of the elemental explosion three thousand years ago firmly locked at the top of the watchtower by the Flame Kings of the past dynasties? Why did this secret finally come out until the dynasty fell?"

Ye He said: "I'm not interested in this kind of conspiracy theory, if you really want to know the answer, you can find someone who knows spiritism on the spot and try to communicate with the soul of the Flame King, maybe he will tell you the answer." ”

This reply was somewhat confusing, but Ye He felt that he had won the battle, and there was really no need to entangle with a scholar like Kang Ping anymore.

His task was to draw everyone's attention back to the issue of the alternation of thunder and fire, and now Ye He had wasted too much time!

But at this moment, I heard the eldest scholar in the watchtower speak: "Although I don't know how to be psychics, I had the privilege of having a simple conversation with Your Majesty before the fall of the royal city. ”

As soon as these words came out, hundreds of pairs of eyes in the venue focused on the past.

The old man looked a little nervous, lowered his head, looked at a scribbled note in his hand, and said as if reading a manuscript: "Your Majesty summoned me to meet me at that time and asked me if the dynasty has a fate?" I said that the watchtower only cares about the changes in the elements of the world, and does not ask about current affairs. His Majesty asked again, whether the changes in the elements of the world have any impact on the dynasties of the world, I have limited knowledge and cannot answer, so His Majesty waved me to step back, but when I was leaving, I heard His Majesty sigh and say that the bird in the cage will not be able to do it after all. ”

The voice settled, and the temperature in the venue seemed to plummet.

Quite a few people just feel creepy.

If these words had been said before, most of us would have thought that the emperor was incapable of resisting anger and threw the shame of the fallen country to the ancestors...... But at this moment, this confession of the faint monarch seems to be announcing that the rise and fall of the Flame Dynasty is just a casual game of the superiors!

It's terrifying.

If, according to Kang Ping, the records on those jade slabs are also the records left by some high-ranking creatures, then isn't human civilization completely under the supervision of others? Life and death are involuntary?

Kangping said: "I don't have conclusive evidence to prove what the superior thinks, but I just want to say that we have gone through so many tribulations, it would be too unwise to wishfully pin our future on the path of the elements!"

Ye He asked: "If you don't pin it on the path of the elements, what do you want to pin it on?" If nothing else, you should first come up with a plan that can replace the fire of abundance! Whether it is the power of martial arts or the ability of thaumaturgy, anyone who can fill the stomachs of hundreds of millions of people in the world can stand up and say that they can replace the power of the elements!"

Kangping said: "This topic has been discussed before, and the transformation of civilization should be slowly planned. Whether it is the fire of abundance or the spark machinery, it is still the indispensable cornerstone of civilization at present. But what about 10 or 20 years from now, 100 years from now, 1,000 years from now? Aren't we meeting today to discuss a long-term plan? And I don't think it's appropriate to pin the future of humanity on external forces. ”

After a pause, Kang Ping said again before Ye He retorted: "Of course, you generously stated before, saying that people will conquer the sky, and that human beings will one day be above the Creator...... This is also a viable path. But I ask you, what's the end of the road, or is it really possible to come to the end along a track laid out by outsiders?"

Ye He said: "Then let me ask rhetorically, apart from the path of the elements, which path can you find with a clear end? Even if it is Lord Bai Xiao, who is the number one today, he doesn't dare to say that he has reached the end of the martial path, right?"

The topic involved Bai Xiao, and many people in the venue were in a heartbeat.

Bai Xiao didn't care, and said: "The road of martial arts is endless, of course I am far from reaching the end, and I don't even dare to say that I can see the end." ”

Ye He then said: "Therefore, even if our meeting today is to discuss the long-term future, if the long-term is too long-term, it will be meaningless, purely utopian and empty talk. ”

Kang Ping smiled: "Fantasy and empty talk are because you don't have enough understanding of academic research on reality. Did you know that in the latest research on the flame element, scholars have put forward a very avant-garde and radical idea: the 'perfect elemental body', using the flame tower, can completely transform the life form of the flame messenger into the fire elemental form, and thus transcend the limitations of the physical body. The elemental body can spontaneously absorb the free elements between heaven and earth, and has eternal and immortal energy, which is the most perfect life form that human beings can imagine at present. ”

Ye He was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

The leaders of the rebel army in the meeting hall also talked a lot, and each asked the adjutants, staff officers and others who accompanied them about the matter, but most of them did not get a satisfactory answer.

The perfect lifeform, this is a concept that can drive countless people crazy just by its name.

Unexpectedly, the Flame Dynasty had already begun to research the perfect lifeform!

Some people even feel a deep regret: now that the Flame Dynasty has fallen, it is naturally difficult to continue the research under the guidance of the dynasty...... Perhaps it is time to let this dynasty continue for another few decades or even hundreds of years, and when the research on perfect life forms is completed, it is not too late to overthrow the tyranny.

But this thought is fleeting. Any reasonable person knows, not to mention that the people in the last years of the dynasty were not happy, and the chaos could not be stopped at all. Even if scholars really study perfect life forms, it will become the privilege of a very small number of people, and it will only increase the tear of civilization at that time.

It's just that the word perfect life form is too tempting, and a little sketch in my mind makes people fascinated and can't stop.

Seeing this, Kang Ping couldn't help but sneer: "Do you think that the perfect life form is really perfect? Then I would like to ask a question, if human beings really become the so-called 'perfect life forms', will human beings still be human beings? Human beings' seven emotions and six desires all come from our imperfections, because we need to eat a full meal, so we will have a sense of hunger, and then we will have appetite; because reproduction requires the harmony of yin and yang, so there is love between men and women, and the joy of fish and water; because the basic unit of the ethnic group is the family, so there is harmony and family affection...... But which of these feelings is necessary for a perfect living being?"

This questioning caused many people in the audience to be dumbfounded, but many people wanted to speak and stopped, obviously not being persuaded immediately.

Kangping said: "I know some people want to say that if you can really live forever, then losing the seven emotions and six desires is not a bad thing. But do you see that stone? It's eternal, it's eternal, what's the difference between it and the so-called perfect life?"

Ye He couldn't help but retort: "You are sophistry, stones are not life at all." ”

Kang Ping said: "Then how do you define life? Only life can be counted as reproduction? Then eunuchs are not considered human beings?"

"Poof. Someone below couldn't help but laugh out loud, but soon realized that Kangping's question was indeed interesting.

Of course, the definition of life is accurate, but it is also based on practical considerations: for example, it can be metabolized, but for the ideal 'perfect life', the definition of life may not still apply.

Ye He said again: "I can crush this stone with my hands, you ......."

"What about the mountains? Do you have the ability to smash the mountains with your hands? Well, there are many powerful people in the world, and indeed there are people who can smash the mountains with their hands, but what about the earth? The land under our feet stretches from the endless sea to the west, to the wild desert to the east, with snow-capped mountain barriers in the north and long forests in the south...... If we regard this land as a living entity, wouldn't it be flawless? Everything that our human civilization has accumulated over thousands of years is nothing but a layer of ups and downs on the earth, and a major earthquake or volcanic eruption can wipe out the efforts of tens of millions of people. Isn't that a life like this? But do you want to be like this?"

This question has silenced more people.

Only a handful of people are still a little eager to try, as if it doesn't matter if they can live forever and turn into stone.

Kang Ping then sneered and gave the final blow: "By the way, when it comes to perfect lifeforms, have you ever considered such a question, the biggest reason why human beings are ethnic creatures is that they are imperfect individuals, and we can't survive on our own, so we form a large number of communities." But once the life ladder is perfected, will there be so many more people in the world? If we take the earth under our feet as a complete living being, its number is unique. ”

As soon as these words came out, the vast majority of people immediately died down.

There are few fools among the leaders of the rebels who can participate in this spoils distribution meeting, and some of them have impatient and rough personalities, and their brains will not be missing too much, even if they really have a noble brain, at least there is a staff secretary behind them. Kangping has said it to this point, and even stupid people know what the problem is.

The so-called perfect life form is like a grand flesh and blood sacrifice, which combines the lives and blood sacrifices of people in the world, and finally naturally achieves perfection.

This episode, which has appeared in many stories, is not new.

Kangping said, "This is the end of the Elemental Path, if you think it's okay, then please continue to follow the Elemental Path." ”

There was silence in the palace.

Although what Kang Ping said does not have much real evidence, after all, the so-called perfect life form is still only a few scholars have done cutting-edge research, and even the research itself has no conclusion. But the future that Kangping pointed out is still creepy.

Especially considering the rampant conquest of the last Flame King, and the various signs of behavior of the fish and flesh people, it does have the appearance of a little blood sacrifice to the people of the world. If that's the price of a perfect life, the end of the elemental path, then ......

At this time, Ye He saw that the public opinion in the field had begun to fall on one side, and he couldn't help but feel anxious: "You can't say that, there are many possibilities in the future, since we already know that this path is different, can't we go out of the second way?"

Kang Ping sneered: "Two questions, one of them, how do you guarantee that there is a second way? The root of the Elemental Dao is that the free elements that sweep the heavens and the earth are used for their own use, and the free elements between the heavens and the earth are not endless. Second, this road was not created by human beings, and the elemental explosion three thousand years ago was caused by external forces, so I might as well boldly speculate that the development of human elemental civilization after that was all under the watchful eye of external forces, we continued to release various elements of this land, we built elemental towers, designed elemental pools, and continuously absorbed the essence of the earth far away, what if all the demons outside the sky were raising livestock?"

When Bai Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but whisper to Lan Lan, "Why does this sound so much like the battle of the Demon Dao?"

Lan Lan blinked his eyes and asked innocently, "What the hell is the Demon Dao?"

Only then did Bai Xiao realize that the Lan Lan in this dream is not the Lan Lan in reality after all...... She didn't know anything about the so-called devil's ways. Of course, Lan Lan in reality only knows a little about the Demon Dao, and it all depends on the eldest princess to give her a make-up lesson...... This kind of question should be asked to Qingyue, but unfortunately Qingyue is nowhere to be found.

But to be honest, Bai Xiao was tired of listening to the debate between the two.

In the final analysis, isn't it just a matter of the so-called route? Quarreling and arguing, who will conquer the sky, what perfect life forms, and what demons outside the heavens, are all things that have no shadow at all. The rhetoric is nothing more than fighting for a great righteousness, a great righteousness that everyone in the world can convince.

But this is not a real existential crisis in the world, just a dream of unjust souls...... How much resentment do these dreamers have to weave dreams so entangled?

Bai Xiao didn't care about staying in the dream for a long time, he had waited for fifteen days, and it didn't hurt to sit and watch them quarrel for fifteen days. The speed of time between dreams and reality is not commensurate, and Bai Xiao can afford to wait.

But he was impatient, as a standard tribal hunter, Bai Xiao hated this kind of change of words that was entangled in the details, watching Ye He and Kang Ping, the two young people, arguing endlessly with some concepts of clouds, mountains and mist swamps, Bai Xiao really wanted to use bone spears one by one to change quiet.

Lan Lan noticed the change in Bai Xiao's mood in time, reached out and pinched Bai Xiao's arm, and said softly: "It's okay, if you don't want to listen, just close your eyes and recuperate, when they are shameless water words, anyway, there will definitely be a protagonist in the end to finish, after all, the orthodox battle of this meeting is the purpose of those souls weaving dreams." ”

Bai Xiao vaguely understood when he heard this. Indeed, the core of this dream is not how to overthrow the Flame King. For those undead who were suppressed in the elemental pool, the fall of the Flame Dynasty seemed to be a sure necessity, and there was no doubt at all. The resentment that made them unwilling to linger in the ruins of the Void Realm lies in the change of dynasty and the conclusion of the orthodoxy of the Great Dao after the fall of the Flame Dynasty.

The result of countless people going forward and succeeding each other was that they were picked by the Thunder King, which is the biggest problem. And judging from the battle between Ye He and Kang Ping in the dream, I am afraid that the Thunder King was able to inherit the legacy of the Flame Dynasty at the beginning, and he may have experienced some twists and turns. And the people who supported the Thunder King at the beginning regretted it when they were converted into elemental pool water in the ruins of the Void World.

No, it may not really be regretted, maybe the root of this dream is not resentment, this matter was his own wishful interpretation from the beginning, perhaps......

Just when Bai Xiao's mind was full of thoughts, someone in the audience finally interrupted Ye He and Kang Ping's endless argument.

A middle-aged man sitting in the corner of the palace venue, who did not look amazing, spoke softly.

As he spoke, there was silence in the room.

This strange atmosphere made Bai Xiao also recover from the state of fugue outside the world.

The main line of this story has finally begun to advance, and it is not easy...... The two spokespersons who were pushed to the front of the stage had so many words before they finally entered the main play.

The middle-aged man sat in the corner, didn't get up, let alone salute, and said flatly: "Kang Ping, you said so much, it is nothing more than to oppose the new dynasty to continue to follow the path of the elements, so do you have a better suggestion?"

Kang Ping was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "Of course there is! In my opinion, the way of the elements, without dividing the five elements, is basically a bait from the evil demons outside the sky, and to resist this bait, we must start from the 'self' of human beings and develop their own power!

The middle-aged man then asked, "You mean the power of martial arts?"

Kang Ping said: "The power of martial arts is valuable, but its flaws have also been demonstrated. Martial arts can prolong life and allow people to fight well, but it is not of great help to production and operation. The core of the development and reproduction of human civilization still lies in the four words of production and operation. ”

After a pause, Kang Ping turned his gaze to the old man closest to the main seat in the palace venue: "Mr. Qi, when it comes to production and operation, I'm afraid there is no one in the world who is better at it than your faction, right?"

The old man who was named was taken aback, and then laughed: "This adjective under the whole world...... I can't help but think too highly of me. It is true that our sect has some tricks and tricks in production and operation, but I am afraid that it will not be able to be put on the table. ”

This made many people in the venue shake their heads.

How did you get to sit next to the White Army?

In fact, the status of this Qi Xingshan is one of the few among the leaders of the rebel army. Before the white-clothed army sprung up, many people were most optimistic that Qi Xingshan's army would be able to sweep the Flame Dynasty.

And the power he uses is "the power of willingness".

Qi Xingshan, the leader of the Dawn Sect, single-handedly created a behemoth with millions of sect members, and it was under the nose of the Flame King!

Even the powerful officials of many dynasties were loyal followers of the Dawn Sect, and the influence of this sect was so great that it could be called a country within a country, if it weren't for the fact that Qi Xingshan was over 100 years old, and he was resolutely unwilling to use the Order's power to continue his life...... He was almost destined to be the new king.

The key to the Dawn Order's ability to have such a wide influence was that Qi Xingshan had mastered the ancient power called "Wish Power" very exquisitely.

It can be said that the power of will is one of the oldest powers, second only to the power of martial arts, and it is a magical power that began to flourish when human civilization was just beginning to take shape. If the power of martial arts is the practitioner's solo effort, then the power of the will symbolizes the power of the "group". When hundreds or thousands of people make a wish for a goal, the invisible power of the wish has a tangible power.

During the period of civilization and ignorance, the totem sacrifices of many tribes were the earliest application of wishing power.

Humans in the tribal period have messengers who control the power of wishes, such as witches, shamans, and elders, to guide people's wishes and realize various incredible magical powers. The simplest is to detoxify and cure the sick, and many religions use the pretext of curing all diseases, or even resurrection of the dead, or immortality - but most of these are cults. The more complicated ones are weather manipulations such as praying for rain and wind, and even more powerful means of descending from the sky.

Wishing power can be called omnipotent, and as long as there is a human race, there will definitely be willingness. In the era of a hundred schools of thought a thousand years ago, the Flame Dynasty swept away the power of a hundred schools, but it only opened up the net of wishing power.

Although he eliminated most of the religions, he kept his own religion - although the Flame Dynasty revered the elements, as a dynasty, it must have its own religion after all. In fact, the Flame Kings of the past generations have also used their willpower to serve themselves more or less.

It's just that in the case of the increasingly corrupt dynasty, the orthodox church soon fell into the abyss, from top to bottom almost no one believes in the doctrine, the greatest pleasure of the sect leader, Dharma protector and others is to exploit the congregation, and even in the fish and meat village, some people like to form a choir for young children, and some people like to solve the problem of infertility for all kinds of wealthy ladies......

Naturally, such a religion could not use the power of willingness, and the Flame King didn't care about it, as if the fall of the dynasty was just a trivial matter...... And Qi Xingshan made full use of this opportunity to gather the power of the suffering people in the world to form the Dawn Sect.

The purpose of the church is that darkness is followed by dawn, and that a moment of patience can be exchanged for infinite light...... This doctrine of hope has an irresistible appeal to the suffering masses, so over the decades, millions of people have gathered under the command of Qi Xingshan. And his power doesn't stop there, he can make full use of the power of these millions of people.

Although the supernatural power of changing the sky and the sun in the ancient mythological era cannot be realized, whether it is large-scale rainfall or curing some people's terminal diseases, it is not a problem for Qi Xingshan. In the era of frequent rebels in the last years of the dynasty, Qi Xingshan secretly formed a combat order, led by a female bishop of his confidant, preparing for the earth-shaking era......

At this time, Qi Xingshan opened his mouth in the venue, and no one would not pay attention to it.

Kang Ping said: "In my opinion, after the establishment of a new dynasty, the power of the royal road on the surface is naturally martial arts, and Lord Bai Xiao will destroy the tyrant with his own strength, and no one in the world will not be interested in this power...... Even I am thinking about running 10 kilometers a day and doing 100 push-ups from tomorrow. But as I said before, the power of martial arts alone is not enough to support a huge civilization. To replace the power of the elements to penetrate into the bits and pieces of society, I think that any one of the hundred schools of thought is not enough, but the power of desire is the best solution. ”

Speaking of this, Kang Ping saw that everyone was a little incomprehensible, so he seriously added: "Let me give you an example, if someone is sick now, and the effect of ordinary herbs is too slow, what should I do?"

Someone immediately responded: "Find a wise flame messenger to bathe in the 'Purifying Fire', and most of the sickness will be burned." ”

Kang Ping said with a smile: "Yes, the power of flames has been developed for thousands of years, and it is almost omnipotent, but on the contrary, the power of the ancient hundred schools is mostly biased. There may be some aspects of expertise, but they cannot take into account all aspects of society, except for one exception. ”

As he spoke, Kang Ping looked at Qi Xingshan, everything was silent.

Qi Xingshan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "Young Master Kangping, don't be old." The Order of the Dawn is just a small fight, and if they want to take over the power of the flames and keep the dynasty running, it is really ......."

Kang Ping interrupted, "Why should the Sect Leader be too humble, the Dawn Order now has a million members, and it has been regarded by many people as the greatest hope for overthrowing tyranny. If the new dynasty can support the development of the Order and expand the congregation to hundreds of millions, what can't be done?"

Qi Xingshan shook his head and said helplessly: "There are hundreds of millions of sects, and their organizational structure, rules and regulations, and the requirements of management personnel will be turned upside down. ”

Kang Ping said: "The Sect Leader has grown from ten members to one million, and then he has tried to achieve it overnight? If the Dawn Order can have one million members today, then ten years from now, a hundred years from now, won't it be able to cover the entire territory of human beings? At that time, the power of human civilization will all come from and be used by human beings themselves, wouldn't it be much more reliable than the elemental power ignited by the evil demons outside the sky?"

After speaking, Kang Ping looked around, and saw that nearly half of the many leaders of the rebel army nodded secretly, agreeing with this suggestion.

This is also a matter of course, after all, before the White Army, the Dawn Order's popularity was already very high. Qi Xingshan was low-key in the venue, but in fact, this old man was an out-and-out hero. The millions of followers under his command were scattered throughout the dynasty, like cobwebs and tentacles, spreading their influence in all directions...... Especially the leaders of the rebels!

No matter what kind of power those rebel leaders represented—whether it was the power of the flames of the old era, or the power of the ancients that had not yet been extinct—the contact of the Order of the Dawn would have more or less enough awe and even reliance on this vast force hidden beneath the surface of the sea.

At this time, it was reasonable and conforming to the public opinion that the Dawn Order should be used as the skeleton of the new dynasty, and Kang Ping finally turned his gaze to Ye He, only to see that the young man who suggested the alternation of thunder and fire was already pale.

It's really pitiful, as a spokesperson, he should have been a lotus in front of the heroes of the world, leaving a heroic name, and even going down in history, but it's a pity...... If it runs counter to the general trend of history, it can only be a clown at best.

Kang Ping finally looked at Bai Xiao and Lan Lan again.

Speaking of a thousand ways and ten thousand, the strategic national policy of the new dynasty is still determined by the white-clothed army. However, Kangping is also sure that they will not object.

Kang Ping and Qi Xingshan had actually seen it a long time ago that Bai Xiao was not interested in the national policy of the dynasty at all, not even the throne.

His strength is so strong that he is completely equivalent to that of a god, how can he care about the power of the world? Just like a human being cares about the queen ant in an anthill?

As long as Kang Ping can convince most of the people in the hall to agree, and then not arouse Lan Lan's opposition, then religion will become the backbone of the new dynasty!

And through the previous verbal argument with Ye He, Kang Ping was already sure enough to sweep the way of thunder and fire proposed by the other party into the garbage heap of history!

In the venue, the quiet time seems to be infinitely extended.

It seemed like a moment, and it seemed like a long time.

Just when Kang Ping was also a little impatient and was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, someone finally spoke.

But it was the first to fight against Lan Lan.

The girl was dressed in green clothes, with long hair and waist-length, like a lotus flower in the mud in the venue where the leaders of the rebels from all walks of life gathered.

She was the first to propose that the power of martial arts could not be used for popularization, and she was also the first to openly sing against Lan Lan.

And it was only at this time that Kang Ping suddenly realized that he couldn't seem to call the girl's name.

It's also a strange thing, everyone attending the meeting today, he should have already remembered it, how can there be strangers...... Is it because you worked all night and your memory is missing?

When Kang Ping was a little confused, the girl whispered.

"Wishing power, why isn't it given by demons outside the sky?"
