Volume 11: The Crown Prince Chapter 16 Rules are made, not understood.
Liu Bai's words are absolutely correct, and are completely based on the basic rules of how this world works.
But when it is said so bluntly, many people still find it hard to adapt.
The world is naked. Intelligent life can see this nakedness, but can also feel uncomfortable in this nakedness.
And wisdom and life are not completely unified.
The existence of herds of animals is a typical example.
Wisdom itself will develop into morality, and morality is just a beautiful vision of life wisdom for itself.
In this dimensional world, although there are various races and they are constantly fighting with each other, they have finally developed morality.
Although this kind of morality is different from human morality in many cases, the effects are actually the same.
Let this naked world no longer be so naked, and let its angular body look warmer and softer.
This is the role of morality.
In the eyes of people who do not value morality, morality is just a coat that can be torn off at any time, leaving them naked in the face of everything.
But for those who value morality, this outer layer is very important and cannot be taken off.
These people nowadays do not have much morality, but they are not naked after all.
Therefore, everyone was hurt by such cold words.
"Maybe that's the case, but this is different." At this time, a living creature struggled to prop up its wings from the ground and stood up on its claws.
"If power is justice, then there will be no hope for our world."
"It is justice for the elders to guide the young, for the strong to protect the weak, and for the rich to aid the poor."
"When the elders deceive the young, the strong bully the weak, and the rich exploit the poor, these can only be called atrocities!"
As his words fell, his body truly stretched out, and an uplifting spirit mixed with his own life, igniting a little flame.
"But now, it is still strength that supports you to stand up." Liu Bai looked at the other party and said the reason why the other party could stand up in this situation: "The power of the artifact fragment."
Wu Jin Cang Yu was also cursing in Xiao Niao's mind at this moment: "Just lie still. No matter who the Speaker is or what relationship he has with you, you are the one being led."
"What are you trying to show off!" Wu Jin Cang Yu just felt that he had chosen the wrong person.
Why would the successor he chose commit such a mistake at this time?
"Because teacher, that's how you protect me!" However, the bird's words made Wu Jin Cang Yu stunned.
"The essence of this world is naked. The greatness of life lies in allowing it to gradually deviate from its essence!" It was at this time that the prophet spoke.
There was a hint of admiration in his eyes as he looked at the bird.
"So what? I can still kill you anytime I want."
"And according to the information I read from him, after the death of your main force, I'm afraid there will be no one who can resist the undead forces." Liu Bai said.
"Most of you and your race will be exterminated because of this. Everything you have will be taken away from you, and your remains will be refined into vessels."
"Even if you don't get my help, from my observation, your chances of failure are very high." As he spoke, Liu Bai's gaze swept through the crowd and lingered for a moment on a few people who carried a special death aura.
"In this case, I should be your best choice, right?"
As for morality, in his understanding, it is just a fig leaf.
In fact, this is true in most people's minds. The stronger they are, the more likely they are to ignore collective morality.
When the fig leaf is lifted, these people may feel ashamed, but after the shame, they will still choose to swallow the shame under the threat of death.
"That may be true." The prophet said, "Survival is more important than morality most of the time."
"But morality is by no means useless. Instead, it is the courage for us to survive."
“It is precisely because we have beautiful wishes and expectations for the future that we look forward to tomorrow and the future.”
"That's why we are united here and form such a force to fight against the threat."
“This is the meaning of the existence of ethnic groups and even all groups.”
"You didn't kill all of us directly, but you wanted to become the Speaker. In this case, you are a being that needs a group."
"If you don't want to kill us in this case, don't kill our morals!"
The prophet's meaning was very interesting. He knew very well that he and others could not win now, but even so, he still wanted to gain dignity.
However, the way to gain dignity is to persuade Liu Bai and make him understand the importance of morality to the group.
This argument allowed Liu Bai to grasp the moral values of this world.
Then he burst into laughter, and the pressure on his body was gradually released in the process, allowing all these people to stand up.
"If that's the case, then I'll let you go so you can continue with your morality."
"And by letting your morality go, I propose to become the Speaker of your United Parliament. I wonder if you agree?"
The core of Liubai's words is no different at all. He still uses the grace of "being a strong man and letting the weak go" to obtain the position of Speaker.
But compared to the previous "no problem", this time it was asking them whether they agreed.
The transfer of an option has put a fig leaf on this matter.
Morality emerged.
In the eyes of many people, he is still a fig leaf, but in the eyes of some people, this fig leaf allows a powerful individual like Liu Bai to take a step back and do what strength cannot do, so morality is not just a fig leaf.
One morality gives rise to two different concepts, and everything seems so natural.
Lu Bai watched the interaction between Liu Bai and the natives of this dimensional world, and he felt a vague understanding in his heart.
That prophet, his vision and power level are actually just that, not very strong.
But his ideological realm has reached a certain height.
Put the topic of morality in the context of the multiverse.
So does the Greater Multiverse have morality?
The answer is yes.
Lu Bo Ke has never forgotten how this great multiverse developed to its current state.
In a chaotic state, or even in a "nothingness" where there is no chaos, the perception of change promotes the emergence of dimensions. At the same time, permanence appears, and its opposite force gives rise to dimensions corresponding to change.
This is very similar to the moral theory described by the Prophet.
They are all man-made things that put on a layer of clothing.
But unlike morality, constancy and change provide the multiverse with a basic skeleton , while other real dimensions fill it with flesh and blood on this basis.
"So, the point of all this is not what rules this world should have, but what kind of rules I want to bring to this world!"
Indeed, this is the meaning of travel.
Even as weak as they are, they have the potential to give Lu Bai inspiration.
After reaching the Sun level, Lu Bai has been thinking about how to strengthen his own path and how to gradually transform his own path into a great road.
Because he had observed many real dimensions, especially himself, he could observe the operating rules of the underworld very intuitively.
Therefore, imitation began naturally in this process.
When we learn something, most of the time we start with imitation.
However, many times, we cannot just imitate.
In fact, Lu Bai knew a long time ago that all the rules in the world were actually formulated by the real dimension.
It is only because of their powerful strength that the rules they have established have become the truth of the world and the laws of nature.
However, as Lu Bai gradually became stronger and began to forge his own path, he gradually neglected this matter.
He began to observe the various appearances of this world, trying to summarize the rules that did not belong to the real dimension and then control them.
In summary, it is actually learning by imitation, and mastery means acquisition after learning.
This is a wrong path.
The expansion of the road should not start from learning from the outside world and filling in one's own principles with the rules manifested by external phenomena.
Instead, let your own path, no matter how unreasonable it is, expand to every corner of the world, so that it can change from being unreasonable to being reasonable!
All of this is actually a very personal thing and does not require any complicated rules to be set.
For example, the rule of the spread of the underworld is death. It defines the original existence, and after a certain period of time, it will be affected by a certain gravity and sink into His dimension.
Some concepts, cognitions and other things that arise based on existence will also be swallowed up by the underworld with death, and then gradually decompose.
This is the rule of death set by the underworld.
It's simple, without any profound logic or insight.
The Impure Land is even lazier. It just adds a sense of resentment to the Netherworld, which will cause its soul to be absorbed by the Impure Land.
"So at this time, what I need is not to learn from the outside, to discover, to imitate the rules of other phenomena."
“I’m asking myself what kind of rules I want to give to all living beings.”
The path that Lu Bai was on at this time was for himself.
It is also the personal symbolic concept of "Lu Bai" formed by the combination of all Lu Bai's current strengths.
It is just a symbol of one's existence and cannot be considered a rule.
"Then maybe I need to meet all living beings before I can get the answer."
This time, Lu Bai still chose to observe, but the purpose of observation changed from learning about other phenomena in the world to thinking based on self-set rules.
Lu Bai changed his perspective from himself.
From being a learner in this world, I transformed into a painter.
Although this transformation did not make Lu Bai stronger, it provided him with an opportunity to continue to become stronger.
