Chapter 523: Good and Evil and Taoist Mind (Part 2)
Ten pounds of soil, the value of which can no longer be calculated using spiritual stones. No matter who owns ten pounds of breath soil, no matter what attribute his spiritual root is, there is no other way to deal with it other than using it for himself or treating it as a family heirloom.
But now, Li Cheng generously gave ten kilograms of soil to Yang Chen in front of everyone. The magnificence of his handwriting and the magnanimity of his spirit are unparalleled.
Even Yang Chen, a well-informed guy, couldn't help but tremble slightly when he picked up these breath soils. The cultivation level of the middle section of the river seems to be heavy even holding ten pounds of soil.
There is no way to describe this gift as it is simply a super luxurious gift. With these ten kilograms of breath soil, Yang Chen's breath soil flying sword can definitely be improved to the point where it can be compared with the Jiamu Penglai sacred wood flying sword. You must know that the Penglai Sacred Tree Flying Sword is made from a whole Penglai Sacred Tree. A complete Sacred Tree, ten kilograms of soil can be comparable to the entire Sacred Tree, which is already incredible.
However, Yang Chen's surprise was not over yet, and Li Cheng's words made him fall into a daze again.
"You are a fire cultivator, so I guess there is no shortage of fire! However, you probably don't have the two most suitable fire types here. I don't feel the aura of either kind from you." Li Cheng said very rudely , and did not hide the fact that Yang Chen had almost no cover in front of him.
"There are quite a few fire brothers, of all levels. I don't know which two they are?" Yang Chen asked with a smile.
Yang Chen does have a lot of fire seeds in his body. From the first grade to the seventh grade fire seeds, Taoist fire seeds have been collected almost everywhere. I don’t dare to say that I have all of them, but 80% of the fire seeds should already be in Yang Chen’s hands. But Li Cheng said that there were two kinds of fire that were most suitable here that Yang Chen didn't have, but he aroused Yang Chen's interest.
"Two types of fifth-grade fire, Bing fire, peach blossom fire, and Ding fire, red lotus fire." Li Cheng didn't sell it. He answered directly with a smile.
The word "karma fire" struck Yang Chen's ears. Yang Chen was frightened and shocked. To put it simply, karma fire is the fire that burns sinners, whether it is peach blossom karma fire or red lotus karma fire. Legend has it that as long as there is a trace of evil thoughts, it will be burned to ashes by the fire of karma.
Such a kind of fire, even Yang Chen. I don’t dare to get involved, let alone anyone else. Who can guarantee that he will not even have evil thoughts in his heart? Except for stubborn rocks, there is probably no living creature that can do it. If there is such a person, then it is safe to say that no inner demons will bother him anymore.
Naturally, no one can collect the fire that no one dares to touch. Although Yang Chen searched all over the world for fire, and these two kinds of karmic fire were rated as fifth-grade fire for unknown reasons, there has never been anyone who can really use them. Not even sure if anyone has seen it. Just like Yang Chen's Yin Yang Burning Heaven Fire, there are legends, but no one has ever seen it.
"How is that possible?" Yang Chen had heard of these two names. But I haven't seen it either. Not only that. Even when he was merging the Yin and Yang Burning Sky Fire from scratch in this life, he never thought about merging the Red Lotus Karmic Fire and the Peach Blossom Karmic Fire. joke. You want to control the fire, not be burned to ashes by the fire.
"How is this impossible?" Li Cheng always had a smiling expression, and this time was no exception. He also answered with a smile: "It's just a fifth-grade fire type, is there anything special about it?"
"That's the fire of karma, and no evil thoughts can arise." Yang Chen looked at Li Cheng, his sworn brother, and was really speechless. Even Ye Huo dares to make up his mind, he is by no means an ordinary fierce one.
"Haha, evil thoughts, what is good and what is evil?" Li Cheng asked with a smile: "If you understand this, then you don't have to worry about good thoughts and bad thoughts, and you don't have to worry about karma burning your body."
"Brother, please make it clear!" Given this opportunity, Yang Chen would be in trouble if he didn't know how to ask for advice, so he immediately climbed up and asked.
"The distinction between good and evil is just your own so-called moral code." Li Cheng shook his head disapprovingly and explained to Yang Chen in detail: "In this world, is there any completely correct standard to judge good and evil? "
"Lying is evil, but in order to hide the illness from relatives and friends, it is also good if it is done with good intentions. But if the person being deceived does not understand, isn't it another evil act?" A very simple example, Li Cheng explained. Standards are hard to find: "If there are no standards to judge good and evil, then wouldn't the idea of good and evil be empty words?"
"As long as the starting point is good, it won't be evil, right?" Yang Chen asked cautiously.
"That's a good question." Li Cheng snapped his fingers and asked with a smile: "Then let me ask you, in times of crisis, is it considered a kindness for a mother to let her young son escape and sacrifice himself?"
"Forget it!" Yang Chen nodded of course.
"Isn't it extremely unfilial for a son to exchange his mother's life for his own? Filial piety comes first among all good deeds. Such an unfilial person must be full of evil?" Li Cheng then asked.
"This?" Yang Chen was suddenly asked. According to Li Cheng's standards, it is indeed difficult to let go.
"Maybe it's because the target is different, which may be a bit troublesome. Then, let's go back to the mother." Li Cheng smiled from beginning to end and said: "The mother is willing to sacrifice herself in order to take care of her son. This is good, but if she does it for She saved her son, blocked the way for others to escape, and caused more people to lose their lives. So, was what she did good or evil?"
There were no other thoughts in Yang Chen's mind, and he could only follow Li Cheng's words. This question seemed very interesting, and even the four girls listening beside them fell into deep thought.
"Human monks have the moral code of human monks. Killing is evil, and killing bad people is good. But being deceived and killing good people by mistake is evil, and in turn it is evil. Can you just use the sentence "You do good with intention, but you are not rewarded even if you do good, and you have no intention of doing evil?" Is it justified that evildoers are not punished?" Li Cheng asked again: "How can it be so easy to explain what is good and what is evil? Even if they are out of good intentions, are there still few people in the world who do bad things with good intentions?"
It is indeed a speechless thing to do bad things with good intentions, but it cannot be denied that no matter which world you are in, such things happen in endlessly and never stop.
"Actually, after all, it's just Taoist heart." Li Cheng finally said a concluding sentence: "As long as you firmly believe that what you are doing is right, then you might as well go on. What is Taoist heart? It’s the Taoist heart, it’s just the perseverance. Even if you are a demon, as long as you firmly believe that killing people and setting fires is right, then killing and setting fires is your Tao, it is your Taoist heart, and you will be able to overcome the tribulation and ascend to heaven soon."

This idea of good and evil and Taoism is just nonsense on my part, and it goes along with the plot, so you don’t need to delve into it, thank you.
