vs 164 Spiritual realm
In fact, if you really put the proposition on all mankind, Xin Yu is not so great. Although he does have some indescribable feelings for the ocean country whether he admits it or not, he is not so "fratern" to the whole world.
To be honest, in fact, even those great men and heroes in previous lives cannot be liked and eulogized by everyone or every group. For example, those who have won the Nobel Peace Prize and the Biology Prize in medicine may not be beneficial to everyone.
Of course, many times this topic is a matter of opinion, for example, if a scientist invents a drug with a wide range of uses and powerful effects, it may be good news for the whole of mankind, and how many terminal diseases can be eliminated. But in fact, because of the market economy, there is actually an equivalent exchange along with this good news...... If there were black-hearted pharmacists, this invention would be nothing to be grateful for.
As for those great men and heroes, to put it more narrowly, they are only heroes and great men of a group or a racial nation, and for the whole of mankind, heroes and great men do not exist...... At least in practice, not morally, and inwardly, there is no saint.
Xin Yu admits that everyone will have a shining point and a kind side, and there will be people who are truly flawless in their hearts, but at least Xin Yu is not like this. He never wanted to be a human hero in the world, no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't do it.
There are tens of billions of ordinary people in this world, and the entire starry sky world is ...... Well, this infinite series of human beings should definitely not be a burden to someone. Therefore, for Xin Yu, the "population" to which he belongs is not all human beings, but only the people living in this corner of the Ocean Country.
In addition, Xin Yu doesn't want to be a hero or a saint, he just does what he can for his own species. This kind of thinking is actually very normal, even in the history of previous lives, people who can have such a state of thought can already be called saints...... Judging from what he has done, at least within the scope of the Ocean Country, Xin Yu is definitely a saint who can be called a Buddha of ten thousand families.
However, in the eyes of Li Qiandui and others, Xin Yu may be much higher than them in strength and realm, so it seems that Xin Yu's futility is just a "false story", but those star magicians under Xin Yu, even if they are exhausted, are still persevering, but because of the ordinary people in the "homeland" behind them, they are still trying to squeeze every trace of their potential.
Such spirit and persistence are even more noble than Xin Yu's own "morality" for Li Qiandui and others, because Xin Yu himself is the leader of the Ocean Country, even if his behavior does not conform to the general code of conduct of astromagicians, it is a little "incomprehensible" that these thousands of astromagicians are like Xin Yu.
Well, this may have been "bewitched" by Xin Yu, but as an astrologist, because ordinary people were about to suffer a disaster, he went all out and insisted on calming the waves that seemed to be impossible to calm down even after exhaustion.
What kind of spirit is this? To put it mildly, this is a spirit that is not self-interested and exclusively benefits others...... Because in Li Qiandui's original consciousness, the ordinary people of the Ocean Country were just secular circles or society, and there was nothing comparable to the astrologists at all.
It was precisely because of this extremely abrupt behavior that Li Qiandui, the killer star magicians, calmed down and thought about why they did this, to put it bluntly, what were they trying to do?
Indeed, although the astrologists in this world are not like the gods in the myths and legends of Xin Yu's previous life, they can get away with food and drink, and they don't have abilities like Bigu. Astrologists also need to be fed and clothed, and they also have the needs of ordinary people, and these normal human needs, because astrologers themselves are not engaged in production, so they need to be supported by secular society. From this point of view, it seems that the group of astromagicians cannot exist in isolation, and the world of astromagicians and mortals should also have a very close connection.
But in fact, this world is too vast, with hundreds of millions of square kilometers of continent area, tens of billions of ordinary people, and for a group of only tens of thousands of astral magicians, ordinary people need to bear the material ...... Even though the vast majority of astromagicians have relatively high requirements for the quality of life, their relatively small number is still just a "drizzle".
And the sorcerers themselves have little ambition for secular power...... There may be astromagicians who have thought of using their own cultivation strength to stir up trouble in the world and become the king, but those are those who are so low-level that they can't be lower-level, and there is no hope of breaking through in their realms for eternity, so they will be so "self-defeating, breaking the jar and breaking the pot".
Because, like most of the cultivators, the most important thing for the astral magician himself is to be strong in his personal strength, and the other is to live forever. Devoting all of your energy to the cultivation of astrology can't make every astrologist advance smoothly, let alone "distracted" from other things?
Therefore, the reason why most astronomers deal with the world, most of them are just asking for offerings for some necessities of life...... When Xin Yu released the medicinal herb mission, it was the first time that the situation of "parallel and non-intersecting" between the astrological sorcerer and the mortal society was broken in a real sense.
And after that, because of the elixirs such as the Divine Condensation Pill and Qi Nourishing Pill researched by Xin Yu, it suddenly stimulated ordinary people who had the talent of an astral sorcerer, or who had no talent but were very diligent and hardworking, and stepped into the threshold of an astral sorcerer. The number of astral magicians in this society has increased by dozens of times at once, although they are all low-level astromagicians who have just started, but they are still classified into the ranks of astromagicians.
The "new generation" of astral magicians, who have reached the million-level level, more or less have some "mortal" way of thinking, and there is no absolute separation from ordinary people in the world...... This is another way of expressing the so-called "the forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds". It turned out that there were only twenty or thirty thousand astral magicians, and everyone still had attachment to "Hongchen" in time, but in order not to make themselves appear "unsocial", they could only bury their "distracting thoughts", or simply "quit" them.
However, millions of new astromagicians have emerged all of a sudden, although the old-timers are very powerful and are still the absolute main force in the astral world, but in terms of cultural "assimilation", it is not enough to be strong. Then you need to consider whether the number of astrologers is enough, because whether it is behavior habits or ways of thinking, these are all social things, and have nothing to do with strength...... Although a strong civilization can assimilate more people with a small number of people with great strength, that is only a special case.
The astral civilization may be an absolutely powerful civilization in this world, but it is obviously unrealistic to say that it is not realistic to assimilate millions of nascent astrosorcerers with a base of twenty or thirty thousand, that is to say, an average astral sorcerer will influence and drive nearly a hundred "new nunten".
Therefore, at this stage, the mainstream realization of the astral magician, or the astral world, is also getting closer and closer to the secular world. In fact, in Xin Yu's opinion, this is definitely a good phenomenon...... And the current Astral Alliance doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with this.
There is really nothing wrong with it, among Xin Yu's values, the star magician is also a kind of human being, but the strength is even stronger. In addition, astromagicians are born from ordinary people after all, and it is not advisable to deformably transform the thoughts of astromagicians who also belong to human beings into the exclusive thinking mode of "astromagicians". Moreover, as a side of the world, ordinary people will always be the cornerstone of the astrological world, and if the astral world and the secular world are artificially separated into two isolated societies, sooner or later a huge crisis of consciousness will be formed...... This kind of "internal contradiction in the astral world" may not have been conspicuous before, but when the "entry threshold" of the astrological wizard is lowered, as it is now, if the astrological world is still maintained in the form of one world and the secular world, it will definitely cause a "split" in the astrological world.
It is precisely because of this special phenomenon that ...... Perhaps because of the appearance of Xin Yu and the emergence of various pills, the number of astrologists in this world has increased rapidly, which has led to this leapfrog development, rather than gradual development, so in the current society, whether it is the astral world or the secular society, there is a trend of "confluence".
And the killer astronomers of the Tianfu Organization, who have been "out of the mountain" for a while, have gradually discovered such a situation, and the "trend of thought" that will never exist before they are "hidden". Maybe it's because killers are always the most adaptable profession, at least Li Qiandui and others don't think that this change has any special significance, but they don't think it's a very bad change.
Therefore, although they didn't understand what Xin Yu and the astrologists of the Ocean Country were trying to do, relatively speaking, they were still able to understand this concept of fighting for "mortals" after deep thought. And feel these astrologists for their own "home...... Because astromagicians originally did not have a so-called homeland, just like those so-called sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes who "made the four seas their home", except for a few larger forces, they did not have the concept of "homeland" themselves...... The spirit of perseverance of these astrologists of the Ocean Country for their homeland and for the "group" they belong to not only impressed these somewhat cold-blooded killers, but at least gave them enough shock.
Relatively speaking, Xin Yu's performance is much "inferior", after all, no matter what, the ocean country has Xin Yu's interests. Not to mention whether this country can bring Xin Yu alternative "spiritual" satisfaction, at least the astrologists of the Ocean Country and the ordinary alchemists of the Ocean Country can bring enough benefits to Xin Yu.
In this way, Xin Yu's act of fighting for ordinary people's society is much easier to "understand" than those astromagicians who seem to have no "obstacles".
So no matter whether Xin Yu himself is noble or has to do it for the sake of profit, this has nothing to do with morality...... As I have said many times before, there is no so-called ideological realm for the astral magicians, that is to say, if you analyze and analyze the standards of cultivation civilization that were passed down from ancient China in Xin Yu's previous life, the astromagicians are actually just some powerful mortals who do not cultivate morality.
Although it may be that the astrologers of many worlds will have the idea of "monasticism" and completely separate themselves from secular humans, to put it bluntly, it is just a very "pretending" act, artificially placing themselves in a higher cloud, despising the behavior of those "mortals" who are so weak and vulnerable that they can be eliminated with a breath, not that they are really high...... This is called "high" in form, but in essence, an astral is simply not up to the standard of a practitioner.
Or maybe it's because Xin Yu was "poisoned" by the cultivation civilization in his previous life, although because he didn't have a sense of integration into this world before this because of his travel, so he has always had some self-"isolation" meaning, but this kind of isolation is definitely different from the so-called isolation of other astral magicians.
Perhaps it was in Xin Yu's previous life that the cultivator himself may also have the attribute of "isolation from the world", but compared to the astral magician, the cultivator himself needs the special environment of "Cave Heaven and Blessed Land", and for the sake of "purity" and "firmness" of his cultivation heart, he will form two circles with ordinary people who do not interact with each other. But in my heart, although it is impossible for a practitioner to have "fraternity" for mortals, no one has ever dared to claim that he is not a "human being", whether it is cultivating the Tao, cultivating Buddhism, cultivating truth, or cultivating demons.
No matter how heinous the cultivators are, even those demonic aliens who regard human life as a mustard, they admit that they are just human beings with a higher "realm". So if it is metaphysically, Xin Yu was in his previous life...... The cultivation civilization in his imagination should be more of a sublimation of culture or ideology, so as to make them more "powerful".
Astrologists, or the entire astral civilization, are only a kind of cultivation of "ability" rather than "realm", and they may be able to achieve a leap in strength and even life level, but in terms of spiritual level, they are still not fundamentally different from mortals...... Regardless of this, astromagicians don't seem to like to "disturb" the social rhythm of ordinary people, but that's because they need to devote all their energy to their cultivation.
Xin Yu didn't know which of these two "types" of cultivation was better, but from this move, he got spiritual sublimation, but it was real
