The Way of Heaven Takes from Surplus to Make Up for Want
The fairies were all handed over to Yunzi and put into her sleeve.
What he used was none other Heaven and Earth Technique.
Fang Zelin glanced at it, then took the wine gourd in his hand and collected the remaining small seal characters nearby.
When the countless small seal characters were collected, the slight aroma of wine they carried instantly filled the entire grove.
The aroma of wine filled the entire grove.
Seeing that Xiao Zhuan had been put away, Fang Zelin habitually picked up the wine gourd, took a sip of the wine, and his blush deepened.
This scene left the cultivators of Rising Tide Valley looking at each other in bewilderment, before they all smiled knowingly.
The way this senior looked reminded them of what Zhenke had said before.
Wherever this senior fought, the rich aroma of this wine would waft through the air.
According to Zhenke, the most mysterious thing about this senior is twofold: first, the wine, and second, the spirit sword behind him.
That spirit sword was far more wondrous than the flying sword in Zhenke's sleeve.
It possesses the power to annihilate a demon king.
They had all witnessed the beauty of this fine wine.
It must be said that even these cultivators couldn't help but swallow hard when they smelled the aroma of the wine.
Everyone sensed that this wine was extraordinary.
Looking at this senior, his actions were also very free and easy, which made them look at him with great enthusiasm.
"Senior Fang, when will your fine wine become intoxicating?"
Zhenke sniffed the fragrance and was surprised to see that her senior looked slightly drunk.
The wine in Senior Fang Fang's gourd has never been seen to make anyone drunk.
In the past, we would savor it slowly, and the alcohol wasn't very strong; it was almost impossible for it to make a cultivator drunk.
But the fine wine in Senior Fang Fang's gourd today seems to have changed.
The aroma is much richer and more mellow.
"Hmm, this is a rare 40-year-old Clear as Empty, it's a bit different, but it's not intoxicating, just a little bit strong."
Judging from Fang Zelin's appearance, he seemed somewhat drunk, but in reality, he wasn't.
Upon hearing this, Zhenke nodded in understanding.
No wonder.
It's not like she's never tasted this "Clear as Empty before; she's never gotten drunk when she tasted it before.
How could the senior be drunk right now?
"By the way, have you all found any clues this time? To my shame, I've been guarding this place for over half a month, but I haven't found anything."
Fang Zelin changed the subject and started talking about something important.
Upon hearing this, Yunzi shook her head, "We also came down the mountain to search for these demons in the vicinity, hoping that once we find them, we will be able to learn something."
There were no clues to begin with, and if Zhenke hadn't gone to inform them of this information, they would still be cultivating in the mountains.
Seeing that the other party had no clues either, Fang Zelin nodded.
"Senior, we need to continue searching ahead. Would you like to join us?"
Before Fang Zelin could respond, a disciple from Rising Tide Valley asked a question.
Upon hearing this, Fang Zelin thought for a moment. He didn't have any leads to follow, so going with the other party wouldn't hurt.
Thinking of this, he nodded.
Seeing that Fang Zelin agreed, Yunzi nodded with a smile.
With Fang Zelin around, the journey was much safer.
Just now, I had witnessed the other party's move. Although I couldn't tell how high their skill level was, it was definitely not low.
Moreover, as Zhenke had previously mentioned, Bearing the Heavens of this fellow Daoist, was extremely powerful.
Although, to her, the Bearing the Heavens Spirit Sword looked ordinary and no different from any other ordinary sword.
However, since it is the opponent's spirit sword, it shouldn't be too bad.
Seeing that Fang Zelin agreed, the cultivators of Rising Tide Valley tidied up and then continued their search according to their previous objectives.
The cultivators on the mountain have all been dispatched down to search for them.
We must find the mastermind behind this.
Another group of cultivators went to the capital of Northern Liang to check if there were any abnormalities in the Human Race Karmic Fortune and the situation of the Northern Liang royal family.
The group continued their journey.
Fang Zelin was still thinking about how his clothes hadn't been cleaned and were still reeking of alcohol.
At that moment, Zhenke took a few steps closer, "Senior."
"Um?"
Fang Zelin turned to look at Zhenke, indicating that she could speak freely if she had anything to say.
"Senior, we previously used prayers to prolong the dynasty's lifespan. Is there no other way? When the dynasty's lifespan is exhausted, will we have to pray for blessings again?"
Zhenke remembered this matter and couldn't help but ask it again.
Upon hearing this, the cultivators of Rising Tide Valley perked up.
They wanted to see if Fang Zelin had any ideas on how to solve this problem.
Upon hearing this question, Fang Zelin shook his head. "It's not that simple. Praying for blessings isn't something you can just ask for easily."
"After the Great Qian Kingdom Dynasty comes to an end, it seems impossible to find another person to pray for blessings."
Fang Zelin knew that the reason his previous prayers had been successful was partly because the Human Race Karmic Fortune had declined too much.
On the other hand, too many cultivators from the Great Qian have indeed died.
Everything in the universe experiences a cycle of withering and flourishing, prosperity and decline—all of which are predetermined.
The decline of cultivators in the Great Qian Dynasty and the dissipation of the Human Race Karmic Fortune are the root causes.
Therefore, Fang Zelin's prayers were successful.
As for wanting to pray for blessings again in the future, it's not that simple.
"Is there really no other way?"
Upon hearing this, Yunzi couldn't help but ask a question.
Upon hearing this, Fang Zelin picked up the wine gourd, took a sip of the fine wine, thought for a moment, and then said...
"There is another way, however, and that is to follow the way of Heaven."
"The Way of Heaven?"
Upon hearing this, Yunzi's spirits lifted, and she quickly looked at Fang Zelin.
Her eyes were filled with a thirst for knowledge; she wanted to know.
How can this cycle of dynastic change be broken?
"The way of Heaven is to take from those who have too much and give to those who have too little; the way of man is to take from those who have too little and give to those who have too much."
Who has enough to serve the world?
Fang Zelin shook his head at this point.
If such a person truly exists, then he is a person of the Way.
Those who have attained the Way have likely already embarked on the path of cultivation; how then can they possibly have surplus to offer to the world?
Those in power have selfish motives, and even if a cultivator becomes emperor, this cannot change the fact that those in power are self-serving.
No matter how powerful a cultivator is, they cannot change people's hearts.
A dynasty's borders are vast, how could a cultivator possibly manage them all by himself?
Therefore, even with the Way of Heaven as a guiding light, it is still unattainable.
The disciples of Rising Tide Valley, who were following behind Fang Zelin, were all stunned upon hearing this, and then stood frozen in place.
At this moment, the words Fang Zelin had just spoken kept echoing in their minds.
The way of Heaven is to take from those who have too much and give to those who have too little; the way of man is to take from those who have too little and give to those who have too much.
These words were like a thunderclap.
