Chapter 2361 Desire Demon!

When Li Yao heard this, he slapped his thigh and said loudly: "Yes, what you said is right. This is what we once discussed in the Starry and Yao Federation. Under the suppression of the great way of cultivators' "the strong prey on the weak, the winner is the king", the entire civilization will only become layers of exploitation and exploitation, transforming gods to oppress the Nascent Soul, Nascent Soul to oppress the elixir, forming pills to oppress the foundation, building foundations to oppress the qi, and refining qi will oppress ordinary people. Ordinary people will oppress and hurt each other in this way, and eventually, it will evolve into a "war between everyone and everyone"!

"Even such a real human empire, even if it has billions of monks and millions of starships, controls hundreds of rich worlds, it will waste most of its power in vain. Of course, it is not a match for the Holy Alliance, and even faces a "wild small country" like the Starry League.

"And this is why I sneaked into the center of the Star Sea and vowed to turn the real human empire upside down!"

Long Yangjun smiled faintly and shook his head and said, "If you think that what I want to say is only the system and concept, and that the path to cultivation is too cruel to cause many chaos, then your vision is too shallow and the pattern is too small.

"In my opinion, this is not a problem unique to a certain country, or even a certain civilization, but human nature, a human nature that is common to all intelligent life, and an inevitable terminal illness.

"Although this is true human empire, but isn't it the Daqian Dynasty, the ancient holy realm I lived in? The Xinghai Republic was established by cultivators, but in the later period of decay, was it different?

"There is also the 30,000-year-old dark age of the demon clan. It is too far away from now on. It is impossible to know exactly what the people at the bottom of the people who lived at that time looked like. But just look at the "living fossil" in the Blood Demon Realm, you can see that the Blood Demon Realm inherited the "Four Pillar System" of the Great Dark Age, and used illusory beliefs of ghosts and gods to numb the people, such as "destruction, rebirth, immortality". If it weren't for your appearance, wouldn't the monsters at the Blood Demon Realm continue to sink into such a lie?

"The Daqian Dynasty established by ancient cultivators, the blood demon world ruled by the demon clan, the Star Sea Republic established by the cultivators, and the Real Human Empire established by the cultivators... Four different eras and world forces, four completely different systems and concepts, but the results are all the same. Do you still think this is not a chronic disease of human nature itself, but is there any problem with the concept of "the great way to cultivate immortals"?"

Li Yao pondered for a moment and said firmly: "This is not the case with the Starry Federation. I believe that the Federation will implement the true path of cultivation to the end. The strong protect the weak, the weak support the strong, and the entire civilization unites one mind. We will definitely advance to the Daqian Dynasty, the Monster Empire, the Star Sea Republic, and the Real Human Empire that have never been involved in, and are unprecedented in history!"

"Yeah?"

Long Yangjun said, "If the Starry Federation is completely different from the above four countries, what is the "Magic Treasure Tomb" where you were born? Also, I heard that the Federation also has the "underground ghost market", and there are countless people living underground, right?

"Of course, you don't need to defend yourself. I know that the underground cities of the Starry Federation are often located on shallow surfaces, and the environment is not as harsh as the empire. Moreover, the Starry Federation is vigorously improving the ground environment, and there are fewer and fewer places like "Magic Treasure Graves".

"But in my opinion, the Starry Federation is just an isolated exception and does not represent the broadest human nature.

"At the beginning of the birth of the Starry Federation, it was seriously threatened by the Blood Demon World. Every day is a critical moment of life and death. Naturally, the people can only unite, and the strong and the weak support each other and fight side by side.

"When the Starry Federation defeated the Blood Demon Realm and just relieved the pressure of survival, two giants, the Real Human Empire and the Covenant Alliance, appeared. Within hundreds of years, it was extremely difficult for you to defeat them. The Starry Federation naturally cannot give up the word "unity".

"Along with a series of chances, including the existence of anomalies like you, the Starry Sky Federation has discovered resources rich in the Skeleton Dragon Star one after another, as well as the prehistoric relics like Kunlun Secret Police. From resources to technology, it has greatly exploded, which has led to the seemingly prosperous and vibrant golden development period today.

"I have been thinking about an extremely interesting question. What if there were no you? If there was no such person as "Vulture Li Yao and Li Lao Demon, the Supreme Father of the Three Realms" in history, what would the Federation today become? Will it not be able to bear the gravity of human nature, and fall into the endless abyss like the ancient holy world, the blood demon world, the Star Sea Republic and the real human empire? Can the cultivation path you are proud of really save a Federation without you?"

Long Yangjun's tone became lighter and his expression became more and more mysterious. In the end, he seemed to blew a light breath at Li Yao.

"Don't come here, I really think I'm stupid. No matter how you answer such hypothetical questions, it's all about stepping into your trap."

Li Yao said seriously, "Maybe human nature is really determined by the environment, but since today's Starry Federation can inspire the bright side of human nature so brilliantly, you can't say that human nature only has darkness and evil. Anyway, as you say it, I just don't believe that human nature is evil. No matter how difficult it is, I will do my best to make the empire and the Holy Alliance the same as the Federation!"

"Then you have chosen the longest, most tortuous and most difficult road."

Long Yangjun said quietly, "As your best friend, I really can't bear to see you struggling in pain on this doomed road, hitting your head and bleeding, and finally giving in tears and giving up!"

"stop!"

Li Yao frowned, "You are so scary like your 'most friends'. Let's be 'ordinary friends'!"

"Whatever you say."

Long Yangjun smiled slightly, "Anyway, I have seen too much about the darkness of human nature from the ancient holy realm to the Federation, and from the Federation to the Empire.

"The life in the ancient sage world was extremely cruel. After a famine, it was hungry all over the ground, which gave birth to barbaric rebels such as "Huantian King Qi Changsheng" and "White Lotus Old Mother Wan Mingzhu". But I thought at the time that this was because civilization was too backward and life was too poor.

"When I come to the real human empire that has been developed thousands of years ago than the ancient sage world, it is obviously very rich in resources and synthetic food can feed everyone, and most people have entertainment and conveniences of life that ancient emperors cannot enjoy, but why does everyone still live so painfully?

"In the underground world that is tens of thousands of meters vertically down, the five classes are like the fifth level of heaven and earth. Everyone is in great anxiety at all times. On the one hand, they are worried that they will fall into the abyss below, and on the other hand, they are sharpening their heads and trying their best to climb up by any means. But even if they climb out of the underground and come to the world under the sun, and become immortal cultivators, they still have to fight endlessly and kill each other?

"Perhaps, human suffering does not come from the barrenness of resources, but from the expansion of desires, or because everyone's desires are unfilled from top to bottom, it contrasts with the extreme barrenness of resources.

"Desire is such a thing that is 'never satisfying'. Those desires that can be satisfied are not real desires at all; and human beings are such a kind. No matter how much resources you are given, you will try every means to spend all the existence, right?

"Do you remember what I told you when I left the Starry Federation? Humans are demons, and demons are humans. Everyone's brains are composed of astronomical demons. The wriggling, struggle and screaming of these demons form the seven emotions and six desires of human beings.

"The more humans feed these demons, the stronger these demons become, and they become more hungry. The bigger the devil's appetite, the stronger the human desires, forming a vicious cycle that will never end.

"Haha, what exactly is the so-called "extraterritory demon"? Is it really the "demon in the distant star field outside the three thousand worlds"? No, there are obviously demons everywhere, and the three thousand worlds come and go freely! Could it be that there are no "extraterritory demons" at all, only the "desire demons"?

"Don't stare at me like this. I don't think that the gods and demons are above the top and criticize humans. As I said just now, I don't think that the too strong emotions and six desires are the unique bad nature of human civilization. On the contrary, I think this is very likely a special gift passed on to humans by Pangu and Nuwa civilizations.

"Perhaps, every carbon-based intelligent life civilization with the ability to close the brain and independent thinking cannot avoid individual differentiation and evolution of strength and weakness, and cannot curb the crazy and flooding desires, so they all go towards destruction.

"The Pangu Civilization Alliance should be aware of this problem. They are extremely afraid of their emotions and desires, call them both "devils" and try every means to seal their "intelligence". In order to avoid emotional fluctuations in an overly complex and dangerous environment, they even gave up their exploration of the external world, but created tools like "humans" to explore and transform the universe instead of them, and themselves... perhaps they are in a state of meditation that is trance and has no desire all day long?

"However, even if they did this level, they could not stop the surge of desire. There was still a rebellious Nuwa clan among them.

"As the saying goes, things will turn back when extremes are bound to each other. The consequence of extreme suppression of emotions and desires is the most thorough indulgence! Headed by the Nuwa clan, all the intelligent lives in the Pangu Civilization Alliance that cannot bear the emotion and desire have all come to resist, and in the end, it really caused the great destruction of the prehistoric civilization!"

"etc."

Li Yao was a little confused, "On the one hand, you say that emotions and desires are extremely terrible, which will lead to final destruction; but on the other hand, you say that emotions and desires are inevitable, and under extreme depression, you will be 'the extreme will turn back'. So where are you standing?"

"Why are you stupid again?"
