"The two sides of yin and yang within the rules!"
"Spiraling upward?"
Upon hearing Lu Yunhe's philosophy, Yuan immediately understood. Their paths on the Great Dao were indeed rather similar, so many of their ideas naturally aligned.
Yuan also walked the path of the operation of rules, so his philosophy was naturally closer to the laws of the Heavenly Dao.
Although the Cultivator Faction had only seven or eight Lords, their philosophies were still divided into three groups. One group consisted of people like Lord Ming Huang, who cared for life and pitied the weak.
In Lord Ming Huang's view, life deserved care, and every sin needed to be punished. She had even established a merit system within her territory.
Lord Wu Lan admired Lord Ming Huang and offered her support.
Another group consisted of calamity cultivators like Jin and Nagu, who allowed slaughter and destruction, nurturing life amid death.
Although Lord Mo Man was not so extreme, he also leaned toward the law of the strong devouring the weak.
The two sides did not get along.
As for the final group, it consisted of centrists like Yuan and Xing Mang—or rather, the Heavenly Dao faction.
Whether life or destruction, both were part of the operation of the world's laws.
Destruction was acceptable, and salvation was acceptable as well. Cultivators could choose for themselves.
Although Xing Mang also leaned toward life, standing amid infinite space and time had made him place this concept on the level of the whole rather than individual entities.
Source's philosophy is quite close to mine as well. Very good. Yuan was very satisfied.
Both Jin and Ming Huang were somewhat extreme. If not for him and Xing Mang keeping them in check, and if not for the immense pressure from the Innate Primal Chaos Lifeforms
