Pan Long didn't understand Lan Lingkuan's words.

Why can’t you practice “rule the world” well? You lose the foundation for establishing yourself in this world?

If you cannot practice martial arts well, you will lose the foundation of your life, then it is understandable - after all, in this world, big fists are the truth, and if your fists are not strong enough, you will naturally lose the foundation of your life.

However, even if he cannot learn "rule the world", he will still have hope of immortality by relying solely on Confucianism, or even by relying solely on the Nine Turns Mysterious Art.

So why do you say that if he doesn’t practice well, he will not be able to establish himself?

He did not ask this question, but Lan Lingkuan, as a founder of various schools of thought and was once a great master of the Great Xia Dynasty, had a sharp vision, so he naturally saw his doubts.

The thin old man coughed and said, "Do you think that by relying on the skills of Confucianism, you can settle down and even cultivate to grow up?"

Pan Long nodded.

Lan Lingkuan sneered and said, "Do you know how to live forever?"

"If you want to live forever, you either find a path that can stand in the world, and become an immortal and Buddha with your body. Or you must firmly uphold your obsession and transcend life and death to become a demon god." Pan Long replied.

Bi Lingkong told him these common sense.

Lan Lingkuang nodded slightly and asked again: "What is the fundamental idea of ​​various martial arts in Confucianism?"

"Ren and rituals." Pan Long replied, "Ren is the pursuit of one's own moral cultivation; rituals are the pursuit of social order. All the martial arts of Confucianism are derived from these two ideas."

"Don't you understand why the Confucian sect's kung fu is not enough to establish one's strength?" Lan Lingkuang sneered, "In this world, whether it is kind or etiquette, which one can stand up?"

Pan Long was silent for a moment and said, "The Master was able to achieve enlightenment in the past, which shows that people in the world still pursue the word "benevolence and etiquette."

"After the fall of Master, it has not yet recovered." Lan Lingkuang said bluntly, "The pursuit of benevolence and etiquette in the world is actually just an illusion. For most people, the so-called 'benevolence' is just a hope that others will be 'benevolence' to themselves; the so-called 'benevolence' is just a hope that others will be polite. How many have you seen who are truly willing to practice benevolence and righteousness and observing etiquette and law?"

Pan Long sighed: "The way of immortality is originally vague and hard to find."

"It's even harder to become a demon god by the way of benevolence and etiquette!" Lan Lingkuang shook his head, "Everyone has his own ideas for doing it, I won't force it. But I will only ask you one thing - do you know what Bi Lingkong achieved the demon god?"

Pan Long shook his head.

My own obsession is the most fundamental secret of a demon god, and his biggest flaws are often hidden in it.

Pan Long is not "will die if he doesn't reveal the secret", so he certainly won't inquire about the teacher's secret.

Lan Lingkuang sighed, "You don't know, but I know. Her obsession is to destroy Daxia and then go to the front of Emperor Jiazi's coffin to laugh."

Pan Long was stunned for a moment, and instinctively felt something was wrong.

If the teacher’s obsession is this... then wouldn’t it mean that when the day of Daxia is destroyed, it will be the time when her obsession dissipates?

He couldn't help asking, "What will happen if the demon god's obsession disappears?"

"Of course it is to return to the mundane world, birth, old age, sickness and death."

Pan Long frowned.

The teacher's obsession is to destroy Daxia, and she has been striving to realize this obsession. Now, her obsession has seen some hope... But if her obsession is really realized, wouldn't it mean that she will lose her immortal life?

She has lived for more than a thousand years. Pan Long is not sure how long the crow spirit can live, but no matter how she becomes a spirit and becomes a monster, she still has a lifespan limit after all...

"Don't think so much." Lan Lingkuang's words interrupted his thoughts, "Bi Lingkong's path is her own choice. No matter what the result is, she will have no regrets. But look, even she herself cannot find the obsession that can support her to become a demon god from the Confucian thought... Do you think you can do it?"

Pan Long did not answer.

He really couldn't determine whether he could do it.

"In contrast, it is much easier for me to become a demon god in my Legalist thought." Lan Lingkuang said arrogantly, "How can my kindness and integrity resist the evil and selfishness of the entire society? The Confucian school's desire to become an immortal and Buddha is like seeking a fish from a tree; to become a demon god is just a deception. But the Legalist school is different. Our idea is that human nature is inherently evil, and we emphasize the use of our own strength and will to restrain the people. This is completely consistent with the practice of warriors striving for progress and conquering people with their strength."

His voice was not loud, but he was full of unquestionable strong confidence: "You are not the kind of person who can deceive yourself. If you want to achieve immortality, the only way is to join the Legalists, conquer others with your strength, and use your fists to restrain others on the right path - to conquer others with your strength, I will rule the world. This is the foundation of your life!"

Pan Long was a little confused by him.

Lan Lingkuang made a very reasonable statement. Not to mention the world of Daxia, even in the world with highly developed material and spiritual civilization in the previous life, he would not believe it if the way of "benevolence and etiquette" could work.

If you don’t believe it yourself, how can you become an obsession and live forever?

On the contrary, what Lan Lingkuang said, "I will conquer people with my strength, and I will control the world" is really quite in line with his appetite.

Practice the Three Floors in the summer and the Three Floors in the winter. Adventure in a strange world, fighting everywhere in the world, what are you pursuing?

Isn’t it just to promote your own principles so that more people can accept and follow them?

This is exactly what Lan Lingkuang said about "conquering people with strength."

Perhaps, Lan Lingkuang saw his situation and said the sentence just now...

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sweat on his forehead.

This founder of the Legalists and one of the leaders of various schools of thought, is indeed amazing!

A passage pointed directly at the heart of the people, easily shakes his will and makes him subconsciously tend to choose the Legalist ideas.

But...it's a pity.

If he can only rely on the Confucianism or the Legalists' ideas to pursue immortality, then he may really choose the Legalists' path when he has to choose one of two.

But he actually didn't have to choose either.

Compared with the paths of Confucianism or Legalism, he actually has a third path to go.

Nine-turn mysterious skills, immortal body, simple and crude.

And to be honest, that road looks much more reliable than the illusory "obsession" or "harmony".

Although... it may take a little more time.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing.

"What the senior said does make sense, but the hardest thing for people to convince themselves in life is themselves," he said. "I'm sorry, I can't convince myself."

Lan Lingkuang looked at him without saying a word. After a long time, he smiled slightly.

"Sooner or later you will convince yourself," he said. "Before that, learn my skills!"

As he said that, he took a step back and gave up enough space.

"You demonstrate the rope rules and show me."

Pan Long nodded and slapped the void in front of him with a palm.

His palm power was shrouded in all directions, locking the void tightly. If there was an enemy in front of him, no matter how the man moved and changed, as long as his skills were not as good as his, he would be trapped in the palm power and could not escape.

This is one of the methods of using "Rules and Rules in the World" and the only method he can master at present.

Lan Lingkuang shook his head: "What are you practicing this? There is not only the word "Lu" in the world. How many people can you control by relying on brute force alone?"

"You must follow your own criterion and let everything follow your rhythm--do it again!"

Pan Long thought for a long time, and then he hit him again, but the palm power was only halfway through, and it dissipated in the air, turning into a strong wind, dissipating everywhere.

"Using yourself as the criterion is not what you want to 'persuade' others. Only the weak need to convince, and what the strong need is conquest!"

Pan Long thought for a long time, then slapped another palm. Before the palm power was reached, the wind was howling. The temperature in the area covered by the palm power dropped sharply, and even tiny frost appeared on the ground.

"Of course, there is no need for coercion, but conquest is not just coercion. It is to make others give up their past positions and choose to follow your position. Do you do this recklessly to kill everyone in the world and then shout 'I realized' in the sea of ​​blood?"

Pan Long continued to think and then took action again.

Next, Lan Lingkuan was criticized again.

After repeated this, as the night gradually passed, when the sky in the east was slightly white, Lan Lingkuang said: "That's it. Go back to practice for a while, and when you have some experience, come to Guangling Academy to find me."

After saying that, his figure disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared before.

Pan Long looked at the direction where he disappeared, pondered for a while, shook his head, and turned around and left.

The teacher obviously did not tell this old Mr. Lanlingkuang about his plan to ambush Emperor Cangqiong.

Although...they are close friends who can even tell their obsession.

(It is probably a struggle for ideas?)

He returned to Pan's house, took a nap for a while, and then began to practice.

There is a saying that "true transmission is transmitted in one sentence, false transmission is transmitted in ten thousand books". For example, sages like Lanlingkuan who have cultivated and lived in great success are really a subtle meaning. They often have a single sentence to guide their minds and make people find the direction of progress.

The guidance from last night gave Pan Long a deep understanding of the technique of "Rules and Rules the World", and at least he knew how to practice it.

Although even if he knows the direction of cultivation, it will not take a day or two to achieve it, for him, the most deficit is time.

In the world of the mountain and sea classics, time stagnates and people will not be hurt. It is the best place to practice.

His father Pan Lei practiced hard here for countless years before he practiced the skill of the left-hand sword. With this skill, he traveled across the north and made a famous name.

Pan Long estimated that his father's iron palm skills were probably the same as the four innate miracles or the level of the four perfections. But his left-hand sword was probably already in contact with the state of intricate miracles, and it is possible to take this as an opportunity to enter the state of returning to nature.

This is the credit for hard practice.

What he had to do was to practice hard like his father and practice hard through sweat.

I don’t know how long he had been practicing, but he returned to the Jiuzhou World and sat tiredly on the chair.

Practicing in the world of mountain and sea meridians does not take time or consume real energy, but it will consume people's spirit, or mental energy.

After practicing for a long time, you will be attacked by loneliness that penetrates your bone marrow, and may even fall into madness because of this, and it will take a long time to recover.

That's what he is now.
