Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Wu Yingqi's ideas really turned into brilliant stars, which were instantly eroded into black by his ambitions, flowing deep into Li Yao's divine soul.

Li Yao was subjected to electric shocks, such as drowning in the abyss, and made the ultimate resistance with great difficulty: “But your plan will kill a lot of people, at least 350 billion people in extreme heaven alone. What are they? ”

“They are the wounds cut during surgery, the pain of breeding new life, the fuel of human civilization, the price we have to pay. ”

Wu Yingqi's eyes became deep and awkward, as if he could see through hundreds of millions of years of light and shadow, and he said in a completely human tone, “In the long run, each of us is going to die, but we, the Alliance of Continuous Civilizations, the best of the thirteen carbon-based races of life, no, not only Pangu, but also the powerful civilization that existed in this universe for hundreds of millions of years before Pangu, all of us were devoured by time, submerged by the universe, extinguished by ash smoke, no survival.

“Over the past tens of billions of years, hundreds of powerful and supremely ancient civilizations have been wiped out, and human civilization is about to repeat their mistakes - is it really so important that, in such a grand context, the lives and deaths of several individuals in the region?

“As you can see, Li Yao, you also tend not to sit around and have to rush out looking for a way to live. Have you ever wondered how dangerous the universe is out there? Have you ever wondered if even if we could find a final destination for civilization to achieve some kind of… 'glorious immortality’, the process is also a painful march, perhaps 99% of people will die halfway, only 1% will live to enjoy victory and become the ancestors of new humankind?

“There is no way, even if we know that so many people are to be sacrificed, we must move forward irreversibly, because that is the meaning of life.

“Remotely thinking about the first fish that clumsily climbed to land hundreds of millions of years ago, I'm sure it's not unique, but it has countless companions moving forward, and 99 percent of them are dying in lethal air.

“Likewise, when the ancient monkeys came from the forest to the plain, they must have sacrificed countless sacrifices under the claws of the plain beast.

“If the fish and the ancient monkeys have wisdom, if you are the commander of the fish and the ancient monkeys, and you can't bear to make such a little 'small sacrifice’, you shake, you retreat, you tell your companions - it's too dangerous ahead, go back, go back, let's go back to the warm and safe lair! Yes, the lives of your companions may be temporarily preserved, but the future of civilization will be completely cut off by your women! ”

“Believe me, if possible, I also want to minimize casualties, but this is war, not only the war of the Renewal Party nobility, not just the war of the Empire against the Alliance of the Holy Spirit, and certainly not the war of the Immortals against the Reformers, but - the war of the New Humanity against the Old Humanity, the war of the Renewal, the war of the Renovation of the Earth! Such old and new conflicts cannot be as gentle, gradual and relaxed as you think they are. They are destined to cause the most intense conflicts, crush countless old interest groups that are crippled, die, die many people.

“The virtue of the General is not to preserve the lives of every soldier under his command, but to make every soldier as valuable as possible, in exchange for their lives for the greatest possible outcome and ultimate victory. In many cases, is the General a heinous homicidal maniac who knows that the troops who fight or block will be overthrown, and the General must send his beloved and most elite troops to the fire pit where death is certain? No, it's a commander's job! ”

Li Yao couldn't help but yell: “Soldiers are already ready for sacrifice, but you are going to kill not soldiers, but civilians! ”

“Wrong! The distinction between so-called 'soldiers’ and ‘civilians' applies only to the civil war of human civilization. In the great cosmic war we are about to face, in the bloody war of countless civilizations, everyone is a warrior and must dedicate himself and herself to the whole civilization! ”

Wu Yingqi's voice also softened, “Think about it, if one day we really break out of the universe in the face of some sort of full-scale invasion of ‘worm civilization', would it distinguish between 'soldiers’ and ‘civilians' in humankind? Or do we face a monolithic civilization, where a planet is an absolute force, and it crushes against our world, tearing our planet apart with tidal forces, one by one, and it distinguishes between 'soldiers' and 'civilians'? Even, what ‘soldier’ and ‘civilian’ would it care if some kind of mysterious force above 3D space were to rise or descend our world and turn us into a strange state that cannot be described by pen ink?

“Don't be silly, since the moment we discovered the existence of the Great Universe, the old moral values have been extinct, and the whole civilization has naturally entered a new era of 'Soldiers for All’. In order to struggle for survival in the dark universe, everyone can be sacrificed and all must be sacrificed! Without such a ruthless and sober awareness, it is not worthy to be commander of human civilization at all! ”

“I, I can't do it! ”

Li Yao covered his head and said, "I can't think of so many fresh individuals as‘ fuel ’, I can't understate accepting the deaths of tens of billions of people, I can't look at the problem from the perspective of billions of years. In any case, I just can't do it! ”

“Yeah, 99% of people can't do it, they can't pull themselves out of the individual perspective and jump to the height of the whole civilization to see the problem, so, no matter how powerful you are, even if you are a hundred times stronger, you are not destined to be a competent leader. If human civilization is commanded by a woman like you, fearless man, it will be extinct in hundreds of years! ”

Wu Yingqi smiled slightly, “But it's okay, you can't do it, but I can totally do it, so I am the perfect commander of human civilization, and all you have to do is support me.

“What's the point in knowing wisely what I say is right, but your feelings are unacceptable for a moment. You can't be commander-in-chief yourself, but you want to stop me from being commander-in-chief? Human civilization always needs an absolute reason and therefore an absolutely ruthless commander. Not me, who else? Would it be better to have another commander as good, fragile and compassionate as you, crying or shouting some totally useless hot blood slogans when things come to an end? ”

Li Yao glared at her eyes and couldn't speak for a while.

“You are limited to personal sentiment and goodness that lives and dies in front of you, only 'little goodness' or even 'hypocrisy'. You only see the lives and deaths of the billions of people in front of you, but you have no idea of the whole empire, the lives and deaths of hundreds of billions of people! ”

Wu Yingqi's voice just slowed down and suddenly got harsher, "Don't you see, these tens of billions of people in the extreme heavens are doomed to die - if I don't start the 'Tomorrow Plan’, the Imperial Fleet of the Four Families will occupy Starscream, massacre, and die from massacre, famine and plague!

“Worse still, the main fleet of the Alliance cannot be resisted with a pack of sand bags from the family of four, and the Empire will surely collapse under the Alliance's raid!

“By then, not only will the dead be an order of magnitude higher than ‘tens of billions' to hundreds or even hundreds of billions, but the survivors will inevitably be brainwashed by the Alliance - in the worst possible way!

“Look, your ‘kindness' doesn't change anything, it only makes things worse. If hundreds of billions of people really die in the massacre of the four families and the invasion of the Alliance, they all die because of you, all because of your hypocrisy, all because of your ridiculous sense of justice and moral cleanliness! ”

Li Yao closed his tongue without saying anything right.

Even if he initially just wanted to stall, “pretend” to be brainwashed by Wu Yingqi.

Now, however, his heart is really eroded little by little, infused with countless cold and dark things.

“As things have come to this point, countless people are dying, countless people are brainwashed, and neither you nor I can stop them. ”

Wu Yingqi sighed, “I can only use tens of billions of people to stop hundreds of billions of people from dying. I can only use bright and just brainwashing to stop the kind of pale and evil brainwashing of the Alliance. I can only make countless individual sacrifices in exchange for the greatest value, so that they can ‘die for what they deserve'! Even if I do this, I will bear the name of a long time, but as long as it is good for the future of human civilization, I will do nothing against it. I will kill a million innocent women and children today, but tomorrow there will be 10 billion innocent women and children who can live because of my actions. This is the great goodness, the great justice, and the ‘love without frontiers'!

“Li Yao, the cultivator, I really appreciate that you are a talented person, you are so bitter, don't you still obsess? If you still want to stick to your own ideas, come up with a solid argument that can refute my reasoning and figure out a way to solve the four families and even the Covenant Alliance without a blood blade! ”

Li Yao stunned for half a day and his voice became weaker and weaker: "But if you do this, you will destroy the whole kingdom of the heavens! The heart of the Empire has been destroyed. Where else can there be power against the Alliance? ”

“Hahaha, hahahaha, it seems you have accepted my argument reasonably, but the details still need to be debated. This is a small matter and is easy to solve! ”

Wu Yingqihaha laughed and waved, "In this case, you made the same mistake of looking at the new world with an old look —— something called 'emperor du’, which is only necessary for the political entity of the planetary civilization, a true interplanetary civilization is not necessary and should not do anything about emperor du, it is not just the heart of empire, it is simply a tumor of empire, the greatest burden of empire!

“Or, even if interplanetary civilization really needs a political center, it should not be anchored to a planet, but should be mobile, so that the power of the political center can be thrown into place in a timely manner. ”
