Chapter 607 - The Heavenly Axiom is About a Means to an End (2/2)
Second, the Upper Realm did not require much to lead the way as the resources of cultivators were always limited. Those left behind might as well concentrate on being a coolie.
Most of the cultivators in the meeting chose to be neutral.
They would follow whoever provided the most benefits.
If you were destined to die, there would be no takers but if the risk was low, one might still observe and decide from the sidelines.
If there were huge benefits to be gained, for example an illegal skills such as the Pill of Eternal Life… one might consider risking death. .
The merits of the Heavenly Axiom were once a distorted concept that had no guarantee as it was a journey far beyond the reach of many.
Now, with many top cultivators picking on this topic, it of course was causing some sort of commotion.
Everyone knew how great the ‘Help of Heaven’ can be. You can pick any lottery ticket and hit a jackpot of 500 thousand dollars; on the other hand, ‘Trouble from the Heavens’ will have someone sleeping at home getting run over by a car crashing into the house.
These are all real stories that can be seen on the news.
And now, this ‘Heaven’ has a consciousness. It was not like before, where everything met in coincidence can be constituted as luck, statistics, or even the Chaos Effect.
Xie Dong, Ma Futian, one a leader of the Truth Department, and another a Lake-Level Superior Being, were able to clearly state the meaning of “Man helps the heaven, Heaven helps the man”.
Herein was the question.
How does one help the heaven to do more with less and truly attain merit from the Heavenly Axiom?
Someone had put up their hand with this question in mind.
Xie Dong nodded and pointed with this hand with the manner of a spokesperson.
“Hello, Leader Xie. A wise one once said, “To do good with sincerity but not be rewarded, Sin without meaning to and you will not be punished.” We are now earning merit with purpose and doing good with an agenda, would the Heavenly Axiom not reward us instead?”
This was a very young man who looked to be around 20-years-old. To achieve Pond-Level at this age is a wonderful talent in China, one that would be loved by Heaven and Earth.
Xie Dong gave a smile, he loved this sort of technical question as it implied that everyone was starting to see things his way.
He replied on the spot,- “I think this is a question that only the Venerable Dragon God is able to reply… Do give us guidance, Venerable One.”
Fang Ning was secretly elated at these words but maintained a calm demeanor. He took his time contemplating and waved his hands around, enjoying everyone’s expectations and the look of envy in their eyes.
Sir was equally jealous:” What are you doing? Do not embarrass yourself in front of everyone. All you do is sleep in every day, including just now, right before you came. You had not done any homework at all.”
“I have millions in the Dragon Prison Support Group, if I am unable to answer the question, basically no others will be able to answer them. In which case, there is not chance me being an embarrassment,” said Fang Ning confidently.
As he was replying Sir, he had secretly informed Anderson within the system to put the question out there for the souls to reply.
Sir was speechless but suddenly voiced out:” In that case, you would not need me to answer your question either.”
“Erh…” Fang Ning was dumbfounded and did not know what to say.
He was worried about a mandated hint from the system, but after waiting a while, no such hint emerged.
“Hey, why are you being so obedient?” exclaimed Fang Ning, who felt slightly relieved.
“Erm, I do not waste cultivation time to have unnecessary meetings. Unlike you, there is no need for me to pretend to be anything,” Sir said scornfully.
“Well said, now you finally recognize how to differentiate the workload between us. I am truly consoled by this,” Fang Ning said cockily.
After showing up to Sir, Fang Ning did not waste much time in conversation. Anderson had already prepared the notes.
Fang Ning took a look at it, cleared his throat, and officially started his act, or rather,, started answering the question.
All he said were a few words.
“The way of the Heavenly Axiom, is all about a means to an end.”
There was a commotion after the crowd heard the words.
