Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 1266 Ideal and Reality!

"You are making too much sense!"

The bloody demon continued to counterattack, "There is a causal relationship between killing 10 million and killing 100 billion, it is either one or the other! Because you are soft-hearted, hypocritical, and gaining fame, you are not willing to bear the burden of 'killing 10 million'." The accusation of the crime finally led to the death of 100 billion people! This is completely different from the example you gave!"

"How does that count as a thing?"

Li Yao asked coldly, "For example, a policeman saw a gangster with a loaded gun committing an attack. The gangster had already leveled his gun. He was caught off guard and had no time to activate the gun. He had no other choice. The only solution was to arrest him. Pick up an innocent little girl next to me and throw it over, knock the gangster's gun away, buy time, and then subdue the gangster!"

"Because he didn't do this, he didn't throw this innocent little girl over, so everyone who was shot and killed by the gangsters should be counted against the police?"

"If you still think I'm messing around, how about the following example?"

"Some religious fanatics took a hundred innocent elementary school students as hostages and demanded that the authorities hand over one, yes, just an adult who 'blasphemed' their religion, and leave them to their disposal!"

"If the authorities don't hand over this adult, they will kill a hundred innocent children!"

"If the authorities insist on not handing over the adults, and the religious fanatics really kill the children, are a hundred innocent children all killed by the authorities?"

"When weighing life between an adult and a hundred children, there is always a 'cause and effect relationship'? If the adult dies, the child will not have to die. If the adult does not die, the child will have to die. This is always the 'must' That's right?"

"Is it because of this that the uncompromising authorities are murderers?"

"Fuck! What kind of nonsense is this?"

"Fire, bandits and religious fanatics kill people, not firefighters, police and authorities!"

"So, even if I didn't choose the strategy of 'detonating Karan Star', I just made a choice that a firefighter, policeman, and authority with a normal mind would make. After that, the defense line collapsed and a thousand people died. Hundreds of millions or even more people, the ones who killed them were also the invaders of the Holy League, not me who tried my best to fight against the enemy!"

"If I were really in Wu Yingqi's position, no matter how dangerous the environment I faced, I would not break through the bottom line of human beings. I would fight like a true cultivator. If I failed, I would retreat and regroup. Continue to fight! If in this process, countless ordinary people die in the flames of war, then I will put the account on the heads of the Holy League, and one day, I will pay back a hundred times! If I can't, the only reason is, I died on the way!"

"I believe that, except for immortal cultivators with ulterior motives and a very small number of people who are bewitched by them, ordinary people with normal intelligence and elementary thinking ability know who should be blamed for this and who is the real one. murderer!"

The bloody demon scratched his ears and cheeks, and laughed endlessly.

Li Yao took a deep breath, and said firmly, "There's no need to use a sneer to cover up your paleness. You know, where is the biggest problem with this so-called choice?"

"The biggest problem is that human life cannot be measured, it is priceless! If something that is already infinite is multiplied by a hundred times, the result will be the same!"

"It doesn't mean that the combined lives of two people must be more important than one person; nor can it be said that the life of a handsome and intelligent man from a wealthy family must be more important than that of a mediocre man from a poor family. Small townspeople are more valuable!"

"The life value of the 8.2 million innocent people on Karan and the 100 billion innocent people behind is the same!"

"If you deny this, you can 'sacrifice' 8.2 million people for 100 billion people today; you can sacrifice 100 billion people for 1 trillion people tomorrow; you can sacrifice 100 billion people for 1 trillion people the day after tomorrow." One person, to sacrifice another trillion people, anyway, the value of the former is slightly higher!"

"In this way, the basis for the existence of human society will disappear, and the number of people who will eventually die will far exceed the number of 8.2 million or even 100 billion!"

"Stop scaremongering there!"

The blood-colored demon sneered, "It's all just imagination, I don't believe it!"

"You do not believe?"

Li Yao also smiled coldly, "I'm very disappointed, really disappointed! After all, you are my clone, everyone just has a different standpoint, and your intelligence level should be almost the same? But why did your IQ decline so quickly? It's like a cliff It’s falling! Can’t even see through such simple rhetoric as Su Changfa’s?”

"Could it be that after becoming a cultivator, people will become stupid?"

"Having such a stupid double of you... I despise myself!"

"What did you say!"

The bloody demon was furious, and ran up to Ou Yezi's memory tree like a monkey, baring his teeth and claws, roaring loudly, "Speak clearly, I can't see through any sweet words? If you don't speak clearly today, I'll never finish with you!"

"It's very simple."

Li Yao said calmly, "Su Changfa just said that Wu Yingqi saved 100 billion people by blowing up Karan Star and sacrificing 8.2 million people. It sounds like a good deal, right?"

The bloody demon nodded vigorously: "It's a good deal!"

"Then did he tell us how many people died in the final battle between the 'Empire of True Humans' against the Holy League and the 'Orthodox Government of the Star Sea Republic'?"

"This is a super civil war that has swept through hundreds of worlds. It's not too much to kill hundreds of billions of people casually, right?"

"Why did the civil war break out, and why did the Holy League take advantage of it?"

"It is because Wu Yingqi's coup severely tore apart the stability of the Xinghai Republic, causing a serious confrontation between cultivators and immortal cultivators!"

"How did the coup succeed? If you trace it back to the source, it has a lot to do with the explosion of Karan Star!"

"So, can it be said that Wu Yingqi blew up Karan Star, sacrificed 8.2 million people, saved 100 billion people, but in the end caused hundreds of billions or even trillions of people to die?"

Scarlet Demon: "This"

Li Yao: "You can see it, right? This is a bad account that can't be calculated, because 'human life' shouldn't be used for calculation! As a cultivator, as long as I can abide by the bottom line, I will do my best. Yes, if I can bloom my Dao Heart, no matter what the final outcome is, I can have a clear conscience!"

"How about it, cultivator, are you satisfied with my positive answer?"

The bloody heart demon lay on the branch, his eyes rolled wildly for a long time, and suddenly he chuckled, and said: "Forget it, you went around, and you got in! I shouldn't have talked to you at all. !"

"In theory, maybe you are right, human life 'should' be priceless, and human life 'should not' be used for comparison and weighing!"

"But it's just a theory, just a 'should'!"

"No matter how fancy you say, in the real world, human life is valuable, and there is a distinction between high and low. It can be used, and it is often compared and weighed by people!"

"Hey, the lives of two people may not be more valuable than the life of one person, but the lives of those wealthy young men and important people from wealthy families are certainly more valuable than a poor boy from a poor family background!"

"Every human life has its value, it's nothing more than high or low!"

"This is definitely the case in the True Human Empire, but your most beloved Xingyao Federation, wow, what a free, democratic, and equal place. You have a parliament, elections, and the Basic Law of Cultivation. You have the core concept of protecting ordinary people, and you have A cultivator who is willing to become a sword of human civilization is really a goddamn fairyland on earth, a paradise!"

"Isn't that so?"

"For you who were born in the tomb of the magic weapon, struggled to survive all the way as a garbage bug, and grew up after going through untold hardships, do you still need me to pull out a few examples from the depths of your memory and shake your face? ?”

"You are lucky. Now you are a Nascent Soul cultivator. You are a big man who commands the wind and rain. You can sit on an equal footing with the Federal Speaker. You can talk and laugh. Of course you can easily talk about these theoretical nonsense!"

"If you hadn't had an adventure, and you were still that garbage bug struggling to survive in the tomb of the magic weapon, facing the dark, cold, and cruel reality, would you still be able to say such a thing? Would you still firmly believe in the philosophy of a cultivator? ?”

"No, you will definitely become a cultivator!"

"You and I know very well that this is not a malicious guess, but a fact!"

"I was originally the agglomeration of negative emotions, dark memories and cold reality in the depths of your soul. I am 'half of Li Yao'! My choice is a part of your choice!"

"Admit this, a part of you has recognized the cruel reality and become a cultivator!"

These words accurately hit the deepest part of Li Yao's soul.

Li Yao was silent.

The bloody demon fought back and laughed loudly: "This is the problem of you cultivators. You dare not face reality at all! No matter how moving and perfect your rhetoric sounds, it is still illusory." '! We cultivators are the real warriors who dare to face the bleak reality!"

"you are wrong."

Li Yao's body was surrounded by invisible flames, golden lights bloomed from the depths of his brain, like the scorching sun piercing through the clouds, radiating light, an unbreakable golden battle castle rose slowly from his mind!

He paused every word, and said softly, "We cultivators are definitely not afraid to face reality!"

"Of course we know how dark, cold, and heavy reality is!"

"But we will never be as timid and cowardly as you cultivators, who will succumb to the pressure of reality without principle and become slaves to reality!"

"No matter how dark, cold and heavy the reality is, we will use our way to change it bit by bit according to our ideal!"

"As long as countless people work together, ideals can become reality!" (To be continued.)
