Chapter 148 The King's Reflection

"Old Xu, you explain it to him."

Green Pepper didn't bother to explain himself and simply turned his back.

Old Xu chuckled, beckoning the photographer to follow, and then walked up to the monk leading the group, saying:

"The master may have some misunderstandings about the relationship between the Holy King's Soul Source and Taoism."

The Saint King's Soul Source is a primordial level existence, cultivating the Way of the stars' movement, like a great river.

Taoism is a small branch that emerged from the inspiration of the Great Tao of his soul, like a tributary branching off from a great river.

Your religion is the same, except that the location and timeline of the diversion are different.

Moreover, our Taoism is like pictographs, "deriving meaning from images", so it looks more authentic.

So even though the statue of the Holy King has a Taiji symbol, its meaning is different from that in Taoism.

The Tai Chi symbol on other people's sculptures refers to the control of Yin and Yang's rotation, while the Tai Chi symbol in our Taoist paintings refers to the veneration of Yin and Yang's rotation. They are completely different levels.

You say he's biased towards Taoism, but that's because Taoism has been doing what he says.

Internally, Taoism can be used to chant scriptures and spread Buddhist teachings; externally, Taoism can be used to wield swords to suppress evil spirits, and even to roll up one's sleeves and act bravely for a just cause.

Overall, it meets the standard of "virtue".

But don't let him see anything wrong, otherwise he'll still criticize you.

Therefore, the Holy King has no distinction between near and far sects in the world, only a clear understanding of right and wrong.

The prophecy once said, "Neither monks nor Taoists should come together," which means the same thing.

They say that our Holy King is like a lotus flower, untouched by any sect or doctrine in the world.

Only in this way can a completely different new path be forged from the suffering of humanity.

In order to become such a lotus, he even severed the Great Dao of Soul Source. Apart from leaving himself some necessary methods of manipulating the magic in the Heavenly Book, he is now a 'brainless newbie'.

He even said he was biased towards Taoism, but he didn't even understand the interpretations of the sixty-four hexagrams of Taoism. "You can ask him if you don't believe me."

Cough!

If he kept going, he'd be worse than a three-year-old, so Green Pepper quickly reminded Old Xu to stop.

As someone who broke the ice of an era, he should have some pride.

That's all I have to say.

Old Xu grinned and then gestured to the photographer to stop taking pictures of him.

The photographer understood and pointed the camera at the monk leading the group.

Because of Lao Xu's words, or perhaps because of his approachable manner, the monk leading the group had already changed his demeanor.

The initial hidden resistance was gone, replaced by a devout light in their eyes.

The monk leading the group approached Qingjiao and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, this humble monk knows his mistake. Please teach us how to properly promote 'virtue'."

Through a lifetime of setbacks and trials, Qingjiao has developed a keen eye.

He not only saw the genuine desire for knowledge in the eyes of the monk leading the group, but also his feigned ignorance.

The monk leading the group already knew the answer, but he deliberately avoided the opportunity to show off his intelligence, wanting more people behind the camera to know the details.

Green Pepper was stunned for a moment.

He then said, "Actually, I've said this many times, so there's no need to explain further."

Here I just want to say to everyone that in the new era of the Investiture of the Gods, we will never deny the achievements and wisdom of any of the old gods.

However, those outdated gods and people who don't keep up with the times will inevitably be eliminated.

If you don't want to be eliminated, refine and simplify the gods you believe in or your own theories, making sure they are easy to understand, suitable for all ages and easy to comprehend.

Then, adhering to this theory, we put it into practice.

From returning lost property to vanquishing demons, everything is done to encourage more people to follow and join.

Instead of just talking the talk, we should walk the walk.

Take the various gods in those stories as an example. If they want to rely on some kind of supernatural power to attract disciples and establish their status as new gods, they must do so.

I'm sorry, but that's called begging for a title with human skin, and it's not recognized in the new Investiture of the Gods.

In short, the new God aims to lead more people to do good deeds within their capabilities.

I'm not teaching people to cultivate immortality, become Buddhas, or fly through the air; that's superstition.

After listening, the monk leading the group nodded, then called the disciples who had come with him back to the temple, saying, "From today onwards, our temple will focus on meditation and chanting scriptures as a supplement, and on doing good deeds when we go out."

Correct!

Green pepper gives a thumbs up.

Suddenly, he thought of something, and chased after the leading monk, telling him and the others:

"Regarding eating meat, I have no intention of denying or discriminating against any religious sect."

I just wanted to tell everyone this.

This world is not a place of suffering; it is the various ills of the old era that have caused human suffering.

Countless beings yearn to be human, yet they lack the opportunity.

Life is a journey, a spiritual cultivation. In the natural and varied experiences of life, we can gain insights into the great principles of life and elevate our souls.

It was definitely not done intentionally.

Because humans and gods are equally revered.

Human life is a playground of a hundred flavors.

on the way home.

Green Pepper and the filming crew squeezed into the same large van.

At first, he remained silent, seemingly lost in thought.

"Old Xu, thank you."

Green peppers opened the car window, letting the wind blow through them.

"What happened?"

Old Xu in the back row straightened up and asked.

"I almost forgot my notebook."

Green Pepper leaned heavily against the backrest, thinking about how he had kicked the monk leading the group, and then about how Old Xu, on the contrary, patiently taught the monk. He then muttered to himself.

He found that the sudden influx of divine power and fame almost made him arrogant.

Without this halo effect, no matter how correct his reasoning is, his aggressive approach would not convince people and would only provoke resistance.

The common people are innocent; the fault lies in the accumulation of the ills of the times. Those who are willing to listen to him and do as he says are people who yearn for the new era from the bottom of their hearts.

Even if these kinds of people make mistakes, it's not intentional.

After all, with the great changes of the times, not many people with exceptional wisdom can immediately understand everything. It is through everyone's gradual progress that a path of truth belonging to the world is forged.

Everyone makes mistakes. If you take the wrong path, you can just change direction. We must not let such people live in fear and anxiety, but rather give them the greatest understanding and patience!

His innate 'violence' is used against unrepentant villains and against events that defy the will of Heaven.

He realized his mistake after kicking the monk leading the group.

He won't apologize for this mistake; he'll save it for when he conquers the distant star.

Thinking of this, he slightly adjusted his perspective and looked towards the distant stars in the sky.

*Sizzle!*

Suddenly, the large bread slammed on the brakes, making a sharp, tense sound.

Due to inertia, everyone in the vehicle lurched forward, and some of the equipment underfoot slid and crashed towards the high embankment ahead.

What's going on?

Everyone turned to look at the driver.

"I crashed into a luxury car. It suddenly turned from the opposite direction, how could I possibly have time to react?"

Those who can join the [Eternal Star] company naturally have certain standards. The driver was also a passionate and educated young man. He pulled the handbrake, cursed, and jumped out of the car.

"What's going on, bro? You just turn like that without even signaling!"

Outside the car, the young driver was not intimidated by the other party at all, not simply because the Holy King was sitting in the car, but simply because he was righteous and awe-inspiring.

The luxury car driver was a slightly overweight man. He first inspected the car and found that the engine was leaking oil, indicating a major overhaul was inevitable.

His temper flared instantly. He swayed and stood next to the young man, deliberately sticking out his large, tattooed arm, adorned with a big gold watch, onto the hood of the car. "Young man, do you know how much this car costs?"

"Limited edition chubby one, over a thousand of them."

"A love for cars is in a man's nature," the young driver blurted out, stroking his chin.

"Oh, you know that? How much insurance do you have for your car? If it's not enough, you'll have to sell your house."

The man in the luxury car sneered.

"Why should I sell my house? Turning means yielding to oncoming traffic. I'm going straight, so the responsibility lies with you."

Most people would have been discouraged by the unequal value and wouldn't have cared about right or wrong, but the young driver was a man of unwavering integrity and had plenty of solid reasoning.

"Damn it, you were speeding! The speed limit here is 60 km/h. Look at the damage you did to my car. It was going at least 100 mph."

The man in the luxury car was quite surprised by the young man's reaction, thinking to himself: I won't be able to get rid of this anger until I've made you bankrupt!

Thinking of this, he smiled with a roguish air.

"What's going on?"

Seeing the commotion outside, Green Pepper got out of the car to handle it himself.

When he saw the face of the man in the luxury car, his eyebrows furrowed.

That person was the "big brother" who had almost collided with him and Yuzu a few days ago while they were driving.

The Blue Fat Star has a diameter of 25,000 kilometers, but fate has other plans.
