Chapter 625 The Righteous Way in the World
Outside the world, the Three Purities who witnessed all this looked at Lin Hao in silence.
At this moment, the divine light behind Lin Hao’s head was restrained.
Even from their level, there was no fluctuation in his body, just like an ordinary person.
It’s a return to nature.
The Lord of Morality actually pinched his fingers for the first time, frowned and looked at Lin Hao who was sitting opposite him, with a hint of surprise in his solemn expression: “You didn’t make any rules for this world?”
“You should have known it when you saw Wang Jin and Qiu Hao successfully evolve!” Lin Hao chuckled, “Or do you just not want to believe it and think they are just smokescreens I threw out?”
“But doesn’t this mean that everyone is eligible to evolve?” Yang Jian frowned, confused. “Even if they don’t have faith, they can still survive the life-and-death crisis of evolution by relying on extreme emotions such as hatred, bigotry, and madness.”
The moment of genetic recombination must be endured with firm willpower to withstand the severe pain, but extreme emotions such as hatred, paranoia, and madness can also bring short-term firmness to humans. These negative emotions are even more common in human society than illusory beliefs.
If Lin Hao had not created a natural rule for this world that “only those with firm beliefs can evolve successfully”, it would mean that even people with extremely negative emotions could evolve successfully.
“Yes, just like Wang Jin, ordinary people can also successfully evolve with the help of extreme hatred. As for Qiu Hao, the head of the guard of the second young master of the Tang family, it was out of protection for his family and he was afraid that Tang Xinrong would hold him accountable later.” Lin Hao responded lightly.
“Does this mean we should uphold the principle of ‘education for all’? And give everyone a chance?” Yang Jian was puzzled.
Lingbao Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun also cast puzzled glances at Lin Hao.
Lin Hao turned to look at Daode Tianzun and said with a smile: “You can ask Tianzun for advice. After all, he also has the experience of successfully opening the sky.”
Seeing the three people looking at him, Daode Tianzun was silent for a moment, and then replied in the same indifferent tone that had not changed for countless years: “The rules set by the creator of the world will become part of the way of heaven. Although they can allow the world to enter a stable development stage faster in the early stage, they will eventually become a bottleneck for the world’s sublimation, and will also become a shackle for the creator of the world, forcing them to assimilate with the way of heaven.”
Yang Jian was just shocked. After all, this kind of “experience of creating the world” was too far away from him. Even though his cultivation had greatly increased and the way of “mediating nature” could allow him to open up a cave and create life in it, the diversity of creatures could not compare to a complete world, and no real civilization could be derived.
In addition to shock, Lingbao Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun also felt a hint of fear and relief.
They finally understood why the boss had tried his best to reduce his actions over the years and only left one clone in the Tushita Palace. Every time they saw him, they could feel the increasingly strong aura of the Heavenly Dao.
Originally, I thought that the boss’s cultivation had improved and he was integrating the Heavenly Dao, but I didn’t expect that he was actually trapped by the Heavenly Dao.
“When did you discover it?” Daode Tianzun was curious for the first time and asked Lin Hao: “You clearly have no experience in opening the sky.”
The Lord of Morality had always believed that Lin Hao would make the same mistake as him. After all, he had no experience at the time. When he incarnated as Pangu to create the world in the world of Journey to the West, he ambitiously established many rules of heaven for the three realms.
The development of the Three Realms was indeed accelerated as a result, but it became slower and slower as time went on, and even he himself could not resist the assimilation of the Heavenly Dao.
But Lin Hao, this inexperienced guy, actually avoided it.
“Because I firmly believe that reality is not a game!” Lin Hao replied: “Virtual games require a huge amount of rules to fill in. The more rules there are, the more complicated the NPC’s actions will be, and the more realistic the experience will be for the players.”
“The real world has its own rules. The operation of nature is not subject to the will of living things. The development of human society also has its own rules, which are complex and diverse.”
“Any civilization that sets its own rules for the operation of society will eventually wither, even if it achieves temporary efficiency. For example, the Kree civilization controlled by the ‘Supreme Intelligence’ and the Helium Star civilization that is destined to have a certain career…”
“These civilizations imagined by humans cannot escape the fate of becoming stagnant, because the authors who created these stories are also human beings and understand human nature.”
“Based on the diversity of human nature, there will inevitably be individuals who are unwilling to accept the arrangement of fate and will have the idea that ‘my fate is in my own hands’. They will resist the established fate and disintegrate the established rules of civilization, causing these civilizations to eventually lose their vitality or even collapse.”
“The rules set by the ‘creators of the universe’ will eventually become shackles that restrict the progress of civilization.”
“Of course, these are only secondary factors.”
Lin Hao talked freely and didn’t mind sharing his experience of “opening the sky”.
“The most important thing is that the path that my predecessors have shown me is by no means a stagnant path. It is a righteous path that can push civilization forward!”
“You still call it ‘the right way in the world’? You are so arrogant!” Yuanshi Tianzun sneered: “Since you haven’t set any rules for them, it means that all their actions are uncontrollable!”
“How can you guarantee that those who truly believe will not be wiped out by those who evolve due to extreme negative emotions?”
“You gave everyone a chance, but humans are more likely to indulge in extreme emotions such as hatred, bigotry, and madness. They account for a much larger proportion than those who truly have faith!”
“Since everyone has power, why should they listen to your nagging? Do you still expect them to overcome their selfish desires and contribute to the development of civilization? They will only indulge their own selfish desires and do whatever they want!”
“You are not teaching everyone at all. You are just trying to create chaos in the world!”
Before Lin Hao could respond, Lingbao Tianzun on the side glanced at Yuanshi Tianzun again and looked at him as if he was a fool.
“The second evolution can give you a stronger body and a longer lifespan, and the same is true for every subsequent evolution.”
Yuanshi Tianzun was speechless and frowned: “Doesn’t that mean everyone still has a chance?”
“Because negative emotions can be vented!”
Lin Hao shook his head and laughed, “Hatred will lead to emptiness when revenge is achieved, paranoia will be vented at the moment of disappointment or satisfaction, and as for madness, if it continues, one will completely lose reason…”
“These will affect their mental state during the next evolution, making it difficult for them to withstand the pain of their genes being broken and reassembled again. Since the genes of the evolvers are more solid, the pain caused by the breakage will be greater.”
“Any extreme emotion, whether negative or positive, is difficult to sustain for a long time. Perhaps some people can rely on extreme emotions that have not been released to survive two or three evolutions, but they will never be able to succeed forever.” “Because the human body and mind have their own ‘fuse mechanism’, which is an instinct formed by humans after millions of years of evolution. It is destined that extreme or high emotions cannot be maintained forever. Once a certain threshold is reached, they will inevitably be interrupted by instinct.”
“So humans can’t indulge themselves and have fun all the time. They need to rest.”
“Only firm belief can enable human beings to always have the power to overcome instincts and surpass themselves!”
“Haven’t you seen this from history?”
“Those young people who were obviously weak, because of their faith, endured pain that far exceeded their own limits.”
“As long as he does not lose his faith, he can always overcome the pain of evolution and continue to succeed. If he loses his faith, his remaining conscience will make him unable to maintain even his paranoia, and he will die in the next evolution.”
“Even if he doesn’t die and becomes a new ‘evil dragon’, there will be new ‘warriors’ who gain power through evolution and kill him.”
At this point, Lin Hao’s voice suddenly rose.
“I did not make the rules. Instead, I followed the existing rules of the world and used the power of technology to develop this genetic modification drug. This means that even without my intervention, this drug will appear in a certain future possibility.”
“It’s not that only those with faith can successfully evolve, but as long as you have faith, you will continue to succeed!”
“Human nature is inherently complex. There is no need to force humans to become simple. Human selfishness is also a driving force for the development of civilization. The bright side of human nature should lead the dark side of human nature to move forward together!”
The Three Purities were silent. They did not expect that Lin Hao still chose an open-ended approach on the most critical issue and actually tolerated the continued existence of “unqualified” and even “rule-breaking” people.
This is the realization of the universe and the creation of the world!
Other practitioners would like to eliminate all uncontrollable factors, but Lin Hao actually tolerates the existence of “troublemakers”.
What’s even stranger is that he actually succeeded!
This makes it difficult for “traditional practitioners” like Sanqing to let go.
“There’s another important reason why I don’t make rules.”
Lin Hao suppressed his emotions and continued to share his experience: “Because the specific explanation of ideas and the standard of justice will vary with the development of society.”
“If I restrict it to death, it means that as civilization develops, one day in the future, the rules I set will inevitably not meet the standards of the new era. At that time, either I will be overthrown, or the world will fall into stagnation and eventually perish.”
“Then how do you ensure that the faith itself will not change?”
Yuanshi Tianzun refused to admit defeat, and could not admit defeat, because the path chosen by Lin Hao was completely different from the “orderly moral principles” he once believed in.
Now it is no longer a matter of face, but a battle for the right path.
“Humans are social animals, and human civilization has evolved from their social nature. We need to rely on the division of labor in society and the power of the group to promote the development of technology and achieve the progress of civilization.”
“A single tree cannot make a forest. It is impossible for a single powerful individual to develop a civilization.”
“At most, whales can form a miniature ecological chain in their bodies. Even if these creatures develop civilization one day, it will be their civilization, not that of whales!”
Lin Hao was not only sharing his own success experience, but was actually also influencing the other party. Every word he said was shaking the Sanqing’s “orderly and orderly” values and their great way.
Every word is as sharp as a knife. Although there is no fancy fighting technique, it is more dangerous than fighting technique.
“Social creatures must pursue fairness!”
“No matter what the social form is, whether slaves, tenants or workers, they all desire fairness, because they all hope that their hard work can be exchanged for fair compensation. Even brainwashed slaves will not deny the benefits of fairness, but the cruel reality makes them dare not hope for it.”
“The specific elaboration of ideas may change, the specific standards of justice may change, but what remains unchanged is the human pursuit of fair treatment!”
“The path that our ancestors pointed out to us, the descendants, may be expressed differently as the times change, but the core of its thought will not change, which is to protect the pursuit of fairness by ordinary people!”
As he spoke, Lin Hao looked around at the Three Pure Ones, his words uttered like thunder, and his true intentions were revealed.
“In fact, any form of civilization created by humans is a group-living civilization. Even the so-called mythical civilization of ‘great power belongs to oneself’, the foundation of this civilization is not those high and mighty gods and Buddhas, but those mortals who work hard on the loess land!”
“Without these mortals, there would be no new life. Without the support of a large number of weak practitioners, how would the unproductive gods and Buddhas maintain their dignity?”
“You…” Yuanshi Tianzun’s expression changed drastically and his face became ferocious.
If he couldn’t defeat the opponent, he would have definitely taken action.
The Lord of Morality remained indifferent, but there was a gleam of thought in his deep eyes.
Lingbao Tianzun was also thinking and comparing Lin Hao’s words with his own path.
“The pursuit of fairness is the right path in the world!”
“As long as fairness is guaranteed, human beings can continue to exert their subjective initiative and promote the continuous development of civilization.”
Lin Hao used this as his final summary.
