Chapter 177: Knowledge Is Action, Action Is Knowledge (2/2)

He kept silent for a moment and said, ”Luckily the philosophy of Heavenly Saint Cult and the philosophy of Eternal Peace Empire don't conflict.”

Qin Mu was curious, ”Imperial Preceptor won't touch Heavenly Saint Cult for now, what about Dao Sect and Great Thunderclap Monastery?”

”That would depend on what they do.”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor said seriously, ”Let's see if they could achieve 'knowledge is action and action is knowledge'. If they could carry out their ideas and achieve 'knowledge is action and action is knowledge', I will do everything in my power to get rid of them. If they can't do it, it isn't hard for them to live on.”

Qin Mu's heart trembled slightly and asked, ”What's Imperial Preceptor's philosophy then?”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor shook his head, ”I have no need to tell you. Don't look at what I say, look at what I do. My philosophy is in my actions, this is 'knowledge is action and action is knowledge'. Young sacred cult master, you still have a long road to go.”

Qin Mu still couldn't see through this person.

Qin Mu, at the current stage, still could not debate over the philosophy with people like Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor. Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor's eyesight was too high and his knowledge was too vast and too shrewd. His understanding of the paths, skills and divine arts had reached such a level that people could only look up to him. Qin Mu was not yet at this level.

He couldn't think through Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor's thought and didn't know if he would be a friend or foe.

However, as for now, Qin Mu had to plan for Heavenly Devil Cult's future as the sacred cult master.

”As for the internal strife in Eternal Peace Empire, our Heavenly Saint Cult would fully support Imperial Preceptor.”

Qin Mu carefully thought of a way to express his words, ”However, I need a promise from Imperial Preceptor. After quelling the rebellion, would Imperial Preceptor eradicate our cult and burn the bridges?”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor turned to look at him and replied, ”I won't.”

Qin Mu gave an expression of inquiry.

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor said leisurely, ”I need encouragement. Leaving Heavenly Devil Cult means I'm leaving a sword hanging over my head, spurring me and warning me that I can't make any mistake.”

He gave a smile, ”If I'm too strong, even I made a mistake, what people could do to me? I need a power which can kill me when I lose my Dao heart. Heavenly Saint Cult is very good. If I go against your philosophy, I'll be waiting for you to kill me.”

Qin Mu was slightly frightened.

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor took a step and left.

Qin Mu let out a murky breath and felt his hairs almost exploding out.

There was only one thought in his mind, ”Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor isn't a human!”

Non-human.

As long as it's a human, it would have seven emotional states and six desires, it would have thoughts of selfishness. Yet Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor didn't have seven emotional states, six desires and totally no thoughts of selfishness. Without these things, he was a human no more.

Or perhaps, he could be called a saint.

Could Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor be a saint?

He composed himself and drove away the thoughts that plagued him. At this moment, the dragon qilin spoke with a low and muffled voice, ”This person is very terrifying. He stood here and I could see him, however I couldn't feel him.”

Qin Mu was slightly stunned. He did not use Green Heaven's Eyes to take a look at Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor and lost a chance.

He had once used Heaven's Eyes to look at Village Chief and he saw a magnificent and imposing god that had an intact body. If he looked at Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor, what would he see?

Outside Scholar's Residence, Qin Feiyue was bowing and waiting outside as Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor walked over and said, ”Let's return.”

Qin Feiyue didn't dare to say much and while they were walking, Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor suddenly said, ”Grand Chancellor has good judgment.”

Qin Feiyue smiled, ”Gu Linuan might be not bad but after being sealed in ice for two hundred years and not moving forward, I'm afraid he might be behind times.”

”I meant the other grand chancellor.”

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor turned his head back and said, ”The successor he has chosen is very good and showing great promise. However, he's very like me and it made me slightly uncomfortable seeing this person as I kept thinking of killing him.”

Qin Feiyue didn't understand what he was saying.

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor walked further and further away while muttering, ”I hate looking in the mirror. The me in the mirror is never as perfect as the me in my ideals.”

In Scholar's Residence, Qin Mu could finally be at ease. His Unity Technique was yet perfected and he had to calm his heart down to comprehend it attentively, perfecting it as much as he could.

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor gave him a very big impact. A person who fights for his ideals always gives a charm that makes people admire from the bottom of their heart.

As for Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor saying that leaving Heavenly Devil Cult meant leaving a sword hanging above his head, to achieve this step, it was very difficult. Even with the combined power of the entire Heavenly Devil Cult, they couldn't achieve this step.

”Since Imperial Preceptor is so heroic, we have to fulfill his wish.”

Qin Mu executed his technique and slowly walked in the courtyard. He comprehended the Unity Technique he had created from the foundation of Overlord Body Three Elixir Technique in detail and sorted them out. He also took out Great Educational Heavenly Devil Scriptures from time to time to make some referencing.

After quite some time, Qin Mu let out a murky breath and his speed suddenly increased. He sprinted frantically throughout the whole mountain and executed the Unity Technique which he had comprehended out. His body flitted back and forth the mountain like flickering light and passing shadows.
