Chapter 502: Be kind to others

The next morning, when the first ray of sunshine fell, Jiang Chen ended his practice.

He no longer needs the innate purple energy. Because now as long as he is willing, he can completely circulate the chaotic energy in his body and transform it into the innate purple energy.

However, Jiang Chen would not do this because it would be too wasteful. The power from chaos is stronger than the innate purple energy.

"Brother, we are ready!"

Yesterday's disciples came spontaneously without Jiang Chen's greeting. Compared with yesterday, their eyes were full of excitement.

Second grade!

They never dreamed that Jiang Chen, who was about the same age as them and not even older than them, had already reached the second level.

This... is incredible!

In the second-level Dharma Realm, many of the leaders of the first-rate forces are only at this level of cultivation. Most of the masters of the four halls are also at this level of cultivation.

Looking at the Xuanhuang Realm, most of the second-grade strong men are old monsters who are more than a thousand years old. When did such a young person appear?

It is truly an honor for these disciples to follow such a person.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's set off."

The Dongzhou Shui Tribe matter has been delayed for half a year. Jiang Chen didn't want to delay it any longer. When everyone arrived, he waved his hand.

Suddenly, the clouds and mist on Yujing Mountain rose and turned into colorful auspicious clouds, lifting everyone up and flying towards Changqiu Long Lake in the distance.

"Your Highness, please leave slowly. Why not wait until the Daozi sealing ceremony is completed before leaving Zixu Palace?"

Just when Jiang Chen was about to leave, Immortal Shouzheng's voice came from afar.

Daozi, the true disciple of Zixu Palace has survived nine thunder tribulations and reached the realm of third-grade Yangshen. He will be canonized as a Daozi, with the same status as the elders. He can practice at Zixu Peak or go to Zixu Cave to practice pure cultivation.

.

Becoming a Daozi is equivalent to entering the upper echelons of Zixu Palace and having the power to directly govern the sect. After the elder palace master abdicates, the successor will be selected from among the Daozi.

Jiang Chen has now reached the second level of cultivation and has met the conditions to become a Taoist disciple. Immortal Shouzheng called him to let him participate in the canonization ceremony of a Taoist disciple.

"No, the headmaster can just make arrangements by himself. The matter in Dongzhou can no longer be delayed." Jiang Chen continued to fly forward on the clouds without looking back.

Now, in his eyes, there is no room for anything other than the waters of Dongzhou. If he wants to build Dragon Gate, he must first control the waters of Dongzhou and neutralize all the resistance forces.

"Why!"

Seeing Jiang Chen leave without looking back, Immortal Shouzheng sighed. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to introduce the masters of Longyang Palace and Chunyang Palace to him, but now it seems that there is no chance.

"His Highness is quite impatient. Why, how much hatred does the Dongzhou Shui Tribe have against him? He is so eager to run to Xuanjiang and cause trouble for the Shui Tribe?" The headmaster of Chunyang Palace saw Jiang Chen leaving in a hurry.

He couldn't help but asked curiously.

The headmaster of Chunyang Palace looks like a young man, wearing a golden robe with a big sun embroidered on it.

Although he is a young man, he speaks in an old-fashioned way, and his eyes are full of vicissitudes of life. He is also a big man who has been famous for thousands of years.

"His Highness has no grudge against the Dongzhou Shui Tribe. He simply cannot stand what they are doing and wants to teach them a lesson."

Immortal Shouzheng explained from the side.

"I don't understand what they are doing, do you mean cannibalism? The water tribe's cannibalism is indeed a bit excessive, and they should be taught a lesson. But His Highness has made such a big fuss, is his reaction a bit excessive?"

The headmaster of Longyang Palace spoke, first affirming Jiang Chen's behavior, and then tactfully saying that Jiang Chen's actions were too drastic and should be moderated appropriately.

The headmaster of Longyang Palace is about the same age as the headmasters of Zixu Palace and Chunyang Palace, but he looks like a middle-aged man. He is wearing a red robe with this toothy and claws pattern on it.

Tianlong.

The three masters are obviously of the same generation, but one is a teenager, one is a young man, and the other is middle-aged, which is really interesting.

"Excessive? It's not too extreme. It can only be said that His Highness's temperament is a bit too jealous. However, this is understandable. It should be related to his experiences as a boy."

"His Royal Highness had a happy family when he was young. However, due to the disaster in Qi State, his entire family died, and he was the only one left to live. As a result, he became a refugee and fled all the way."

"On the way to escape, His Highness was often attacked by monsters. On several occasions, he witnessed his companions being devoured by monsters."

"It is probably because of this incident that it affected His Highness, causing him to hate man-eating monsters so much that he wished to kill them all."

"Of course, although His Highness didn't say it, I can guess that in his heart, he is not only dissatisfied with monsters, but also with my immortal way for a long time."

"He blames us. We obviously have the ability to rescue those refugees, but we stand by and let those refugees be attacked by monsters. In His Highness's view, our actions are suspected of deliberately allowing monsters to eat people."

"Therefore, since His Highness came to Zixu Palace, he has rarely had contact with outsiders, especially disciples stationed outside. His Highness has never interacted with them."

"Your Highness is using this method to express his dissatisfaction."

Immortal Shouzheng shook his head and said with a wry smile, he was the one who had the most contact with Jiang Chen in the entire Zixu Palace, so he had a very deep understanding of Jiang Chen and almost figured out his temperament.

Everything is good, but he is a bit vindictive. No matter how small the grudge is, he can keep it in his heart and then look for opportunities to take revenge.

"Hey, this matter is indeed my fault. I failed to arrange the refugees in time. It is right for His Highness to be dissatisfied. However, there are too many cannibal monsters in the world, and His Highness cannot kill them all."

"Shou Zheng, please persuade His Highness to let go of some of his hatred and just kill the culprit some other time. I'm afraid that if he continues to kill like this, his mind will easily be distorted by murder."

The headmaster of Chunyang Palace said that he actually didn't care at all about Jiang Chen killing monsters. What he cared about was that he was afraid that Jiang Chen would go astray due to killing too many people.

Tianyang Immortal Lord is such a direct descendant. If something goes wrong because of too many killings, the demon clan will never be able to escape its guilt.

"I can't persuade you. I've already said everything I can. I ask Your Highness, there are so many monsters in the world, can you kill them all?"

"His Highness replied: 'Because I can't kill you cleanly, so I won't kill you? In this case, you can't become an immortal even if you practice, then you don't need to practice?'"

"One sentence stopped what I was going to say next."

"Next, His Highness said that it is precisely because we hold this idea that there will be more and more monsters eating people in the world."

"If all of us could be like him, when we see an uneven road, we would draw our swords to help, and if we saw a monster that eats people, we would kill it. Then over time, the monsters would be afraid, and naturally they would not dare to eat people anymore.

.”

"Your Highness summed up the reason why the demon clan is becoming more and more ferocious today. It is because we are used to it and tolerate it again and again, which makes their arrogance become more and more arrogant."

"Barbarians fear power but not virtue. When facing monsters, they should be destroyed with the power of thunder. Only then can we severely frighten them, instead of indifferently turning a blind eye to their actions."

Immortal Shouzheng organized his words in his mind and spoke slowly. In fact, what he said was already very implicit, and Jiang Chen's original words were much worse than this.

Immortal cultivators are so used to being aloof that they no longer regard themselves as human beings, or they no longer regard the people below as human beings. They regard them as ants and do not care about their life or death.

Because the original words were too ugly, Immortal Shouzheng could only choose some words that he thought were reasonable.

“When the road is rough, draw your sword to help.”

"Barbarians fear power but not virtue."

"Your Highness is right. It is because we cultivators lack this kind of warm-heartedness that we manage Dongzhou like this."

"Since ancient times, the lives of the Dongzhou human race have deteriorated from generation to generation, precisely because we immortal cultivators have lost our passion."

"When the road is rough, draw your sword to help, just eight words. How many people in today's immortal way can do it?"

The headmaster of Longyang Palace said with emotion that he thought what Jiang Chen said was very reasonable, and it directly pointed out the current problem of the immortal way. The monks lacked passion and did not have the responsibility they should have.

When a monk sees a monster eating a person, his first thought is not to stop him, but to wonder if the person being eaten is related to him.

If it had nothing to do with him, then there was no need for him to offend a powerful monster for a stranger.

"Your Highness is indeed a born saint, and he sees things thoroughly."

The headmaster of Chunyang Palace is also observing and can find the problem. Then the next thing to do is simple, which is to find a way to solve the problem.

"When the great principles are lost, there is benevolence and righteousness; when there is wisdom and wisdom, there is great hypocrisy; when relatives are in discord, there is filial piety and kindness; when the country is in chaos, there are loyal ministers."

"His Highness often says that he is not a sage, but an ordinary person. It is only because today's world has gone bad that it seems that he, an ordinary person, has the character of a saint."

When Immortal Shouzheng thought of Jiang Chen's words, he felt that every word was precious, and each sentence contained the truth of heaven and earth, which was thought-provoking.

"When you recruit disciples from now on, you should put your character first. The ethos of the previous disciples has already been established and cannot be changed easily. The ethos of future disciples will no longer be reflected."

"It is our duty to kill demons and demons."

The three major leaders reached a consensus at this moment and decided to join forces to reverse the trend of the cultivation world.

At the same time, this is also their opportunity. If they can really do this and reverse the trend of the entire cultivation world, then in the future, their reputation will not be weaker than that of the founder of the Three Palaces. Even if they are not saints, they will be respected as great masters by future generations.

Be virtuous and establish virtue in the world.

"Using a sword and riding the wind, we can eliminate demons in the world and show our true colors."

On the way to Changqiu Long Lake in the clouds, Jiang Chen said to the people around him that he was spreading his ideas and hoped that everyone would be like him and draw his sword to help when there was injustice on the road.

Indeed, there are so many injustices in the world that it is impossible to control them. But if everyone is like him and takes care of injustices when they see them, then the combined efforts of everyone can definitely make the injustices in this world disappear.

The great unity of the world cannot be achieved by one person. It requires the joint efforts of tens of thousands, or even all people in the world, to create a harmonious society in the eyes of the saints.

"Senior brother, it is indeed satisfying to slay demons, but when we first started, the elders taught us that cultivators should avoid killing as much as possible, so as not to affect their cultivation."

"What the elder said obviously conflicts with slaying demons. Since we want to slay demons, we must kill. If we don't kill, how can we slay demons?"

Everyone was inspired by Jiang Chen's recitation of this poem, but after all, he was a cultivator of immortality, with a firm will, and would not be ignored by others, so they couldn't help but ask Jiang Chen.
