Chapter 1241 Extreme animal protectionists!
When Li Yao heard that she was speechless, she was completely different from what she had just said, she immediately understood that these words were probably not what she thought of, but the theory that was very popular in the real human empire, and perhaps the "brainwashing" technique that every cultivator must accept.
Li Yao was really curious about the theory of immortal cultivators. He wanted to maintain a huge country like the real human empire, so that countless immortal cultivators would sacrifice one after another. Even after enslaving countless ordinary people, he still regarded himself as the "guardian of human civilization". Behind such shamelessness, there must be a theoretical system that can justify itself, that is, the "Tao Heart" of immortal cultivators, which is the source of their power!
If you can explore the Taoist heart of immortals, you can find the source of their power, analyze and study it, and come up with solutions.
This is the battle for the great way between the Federation and the Empire!
This is a great opportunity and must not be let go. Li Yao should have a good understanding of how cultivators brainwash their brainstorms to wash out such evil and natural concepts!
He looked solemn, bowed deeply to Tang Qianhe, and said respectfully: "Young people seem to have grasped something, but the key point is still ignorant. I wonder if Senior Tang can help me to enlighten me about the true meaning of the path of immortal cultivation, including the relationship between ordinary people and cultivators?"
Tang Qianhe's status is the lowest among the three immortal cultivators. Li Yao, a senior, flattered her without revealing any traces, which made her very useful.
Tang Qianhe looked up and his gaze was on Su Changfa.
Su Changfa observed the two of them coldly from not far away, coughed gently, and nodded.
In their plan, Li Yao is not a temporary use, but a long-term investment is required to rely on him to invade the flying star world.
His identity, cultivation and handle are the most suitable "leaders". At least before meeting the next more suitable candidate, he is still very valuable.
If Li Yao can be completely brainwashed into an immortal cultivator and willing to do things for them, he will be much more proactive, and of course it would be better!
After receiving the captain's approval, Tang Qianhe smiled and said, "Okay, since you have the intention of changing your mind and becoming a new person, we are naturally willing to help you!"
"I'll ask you a question first. What do you think is the most important reason why a person is human, the body or the soul?"
Li Yao blinked, not knowing how to answer this question, which is more in line with his current identity.
Before he could answer, Tang Qianhe said again: "Or, let's change the question. Are there ghost cultivators in your flying star realm? It is the kind that will continue to exist after the death of a person, and will be attached to some magic weapons and puppets!"
Li Yao nodded: "Yes, there are many ghost cultivators in our Feixing Realm, and everyone is familiar with it. They also regard ghost cultivators as similar."
"That's it!"
Tang Qianhe slapped his high-high and said quickly, "Ghost cultivators use metal shells and use crystal brains to think; humans use flesh and blood bodies and use brain cells to think! Two existences with completely different appearances are regarded as the same kind!"
"For example, do you know that in the ancient times of cultivation forty thousand years ago, there was an evil magic called 'soul transfer*', which could transfer human souls to animals' bodies and exchange them with animals' souls?"
"Suppose one day, you are caught by an unparalleled practitioner for experiments, locked up with the monkey, and exchanged the soul with the "soul transfer*". Your soul is imprisoned in the monkey's body, but the monkey's soul is imprisoned in your body. Then do you think...who is more qualified to be called 'human'?"
"Of course it's me!"
Li Yao blurted out, "Don't talk about monkeys, even if they are cows, sheep, pigs and dogs, I am a real human being!"
"Yes, our views are consistent. This is the only conclusion that has been considered by the world of immortal cultivation for thousands of years!"
Tang Qianhe smiled and said, "I just want to illustrate that the real definition of an existence as a ‘human’ is neither his gene nor his flesh and blood body, but his soul, his entire spirit, will and memory!"
"Genes can be screened, modified and mutated; flesh and blood body is just a body. Even if it is replaced with a new one, composed of metal and crystal, it will not change its essence!"
"To reach our level, we can already stimulate genes and cells, and initially transform the cells around the body, and become completely different from the 'natural form'!"
"After a major transformation, after growing fangs and scales, or trilobular lungs, two hearts and two brains, we are not considered humans?"
Li Yao shook his head and said sincerely: "Of course not!"
He agreed with the view of the cultivators in this regard.
After ascending to the Kalpa stage, the end of the practitioner's spine begins to expand, slowly growing a second brain, and at the same time it can greatly strengthen the functions of the internal organs. Even through the practice of some special exercises, new organs can be produced.
Li Yao's "cell annihilation cannon" is the most typical example. It is impossible for ordinary people to grow crystal clear "crystal tuberculosis" in any case!
From a morphological perspective, Li Yao, who stimulated the vast number of cells to the limit, is indeed completely different from ordinary people.
But if this is not considered human, it would be ridiculous!
The essence of human beings is the soul rather than the body. This is the mainstream view of the three realms of Tianyuan, Flying Star and Blood Demon, and it is also the theoretical basis for establishing a "new federation".
Li Yao has always been a staunch supporter and promoter of this theory, and his understanding of this theory is even deeper than that of Tang Qianhe.
As early as outside Tongtian City in the Blood Demon Realm, he used this theory to convince Jin Xinyue, making Jin Xinyue completely recognize his identity.
Tang Qianhe is really showing off his skills in front of him!
"So, as long as you have a real human soul, no matter what your appearance is, flesh and blood, metal puppets, or even stranger forms, they don't matter. They can be considered human, right?"
Tang Qianhe asked with a smile.
Li Yao clearly felt that there was a trap in this sentence. After thinking about it for a long time, he could not think of a flaw. He nodded a little hesitantly.
"So, it's possible to be true on the other hand?"
There was a dangerous light shining in Tang Qianhe's eyes, "The essence of human beings is not a body, but a soul. Although ordinary people have bodies that are almost exactly the same as us, they do not have real souls, so they naturally cannot be considered real humans! It's like using 'soul transfer*' to transfer the monkey's soul into the human body. Of course, it's not a human, but a monkey who looks very much like a human!"
Li Yao was stunned. This, this is OK to explain this way?
He hardly had to disguise himself, and he really stuttered: "Tang, Senior Tang, how do you confirm whether a person has a 'real soul'?"
“It’s very simple!”
Tang Qianhe smiled and knocked his eyebrows, saying, "Look at the spiritual root! As long as you awaken the spiritual roots and master the ability to swallow the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and be qualified to fight for human civilization, you will have a true soul!"
"Otherwise, what qualifications are there to be for the waste who cannot even awaken spiritual roots to be called such a great title of 'human'?"
"Remember the example of parasitic wasps I just mentioned? Many times, in the host, the eggs of parasitic wasps and the eggs of the host are raised together. Even the larvae they just exploded are very similar in shape, but in essence, they are two completely different species!"
"The same is true of our relationship with ordinary people!"
"Maybe when our bodies are just born, we have to go through a stage where the spiritual roots have not yet awakened, just like the ovoid form of parasitic wasps and hosts."
"At first glance, we were indeed no different from ordinary people at that time!"
"However, after receiving extremely harsh cultivation, some of them will eventually stand out, break through the limits, awaken their spiritual roots, and realize their responsibilities, obligations and glory as a member of human civilization!"
"Only these people are 'parasitic bees' and are qualified to be called 'real humans'. This is also the origin of our name 'real human empire'!"
"In the empire, everyone is divided into two categories. Cultivators who awaken their spiritual roots like you and me are called 'real people'. Only real people are qualified to become citizens of the empire and are the pillars of human civilization!"
"And those wastes who have been practicing for more than ten years but have not yet awakened their spiritual roots are of course not qualified to be called "human". They can be called "humanoid" or "original human". They are a relatively advanced animal between cattle, sheep, pigs, dogs and real people."
Although he knew that the other party was brainwashing, Li Yao still felt a sense of shock that his three views were strongly impacted, and he shouted that he couldn't bear it.
Tang Qianhe said proudly: "You have been brainwashed in the pedantic concepts in the cultivation world for decades. Do you think what I am talking about is all fallacies and evil, and it is extremely absurd?"
Li Yao shook his head quickly and smiled apologized: "That's not the case. I just think that there is still a difference between this and this, ordinary people, and cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs. Cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs, neither can think nor speak, but ordinary people can communicate freely with practitioners."
"At most of all, these 'original people' are more human."
Tang Qianhe sneered, "Environments that are compatible with human nature are not uncommon. Cats and dogs are very compatible with human nature. Many people like to keep them as pets. After raising them for a few years, they can have a sympathy with their owners and understand the meaning of their owners' words and actions."
"The original person is at most an upgraded version of cats and dogs."
"By the way, in the history of your flying star world, is there such a saying that "extreme animal protectionists"? It means that you like to raise cats and dogs, and gradually become psychologically alienated, treat cats and dogs as your kind and even children, turn your hobbies into moral commanding heights, climb up to show off your power, and you can't stand others killing cats and eating dogs, use extremely domineering means to stop others, and place the rights of cats and dogs above the rights of real humans!"
Li Yao blinked his eyes and nodded, "Not only exists in history, but also now, but it is also popular and is becoming more and more intense!"
"That's it!"
