(Chapter 439 onward: Immortal Emperor breaks through apocalypse in a frozen world)
Li Mu cultivated for tens of thousands of years, finally becoming the number one Immortal Emperor in the Imm...
The fact that a voting plan that was obviously extremely unfair, in which each foreign cultivator had 10 votes, could be passed so smoothly was a great irony for Lingxiao Palace, which had always been famous for its fairness.
But things are so dramatic that this voting plan not only had few opponents, but was also passed with a high vote.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Fairness is ultimately just a beautiful imagination of the world.
Most of those who shout about fairness and equality are not living a satisfactory life themselves and are delusional about sharing other people's resources in this way;
Then there are the top people, who are also very keen on shouting slogans, because the status or resources they obtain are basically from the bottom. Water can carry a boat but can also overturn it. If you don’t shout slogans louder, it will be troublesome if you cause hatred from the bottom. This kind of people always talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, and usually give small favors to the people below to win people’s hearts. However, after many years, people find that the essence of society has not changed. The top is still the top, and the bottom is still the bottom. When people react, the top who fooled them is long gone. However, the people at the bottom never learn their lessons and are fooled by the new top again. Slogans are just a means for them to appease people;
There is another type of people at the middle level. They don't have to worry about resources and they live a pretty good life, but in order to establish their own image or to go further, they also shout some nice slogans from time to time.
Although these types of people shout loud slogans, when they are asked to contribute money and effort or when their interests are shaken, they suddenly become speechless.
No matter how beautiful a slogan sounds, it is just a slogan after all. If you really want to draw a conclusion about a person, you have to look at what they do.
Of course, there are some people who are truly fighting for this slogan, but these people are a minority after all, and they do not make much of a difference to the overall situation.
But these are understandable. Take the Lingxiao Palace that Li Mu built in the Qiongzu Universe. Is it possible that everyone is equal?
Let's not discuss the issue of human nature. Let's just say that when Lingxiao Palace encounters major or minor events, who makes the final decision? The Palace Master? Why? We are all equal. What right do you have to make a decision that affects the entire Lingxiao Palace?
Voting? Regardless of whether voting will delay things, let's just talk about the issue of the minority obeying the majority. Is this fair? You have your ideas, he has his way of thinking. Is it fair to give the majority the power to make decisions?
It is impossible to achieve absolute fairness.
The mortal spirits in the microcosm have limited resources, and some of them can’t even get enough food.
However, as expected, these cultivators in the Qiongzu Universe all have their own small universes, and they can access the resources of the entire small universe. Even so, they are still not satisfied and continue to fight for resources, which is enough to show the greed of human nature.
Therefore, absolute fairness is impossible to exist anywhere.
Li Mu is not a saint, and he believes that he does not have the ability to create absolute fairness. Even if his Lingxiao Universe is complete in the future and he himself becomes the master of the higher-dimensional universe, the Hongmeng Immortal Lord, he does not think that he can create conditions of absolute fairness. He cannot even break through his own hurdle.
Back to reality, since the voting rights distribution plan in Lingxiao Palace was passed, the cultivators from the outside world instantly became popular.
People from several major forces were like people with their blood pumped up, and they all cast their eyes on the new cultivators who had entered the Changfeng Domain.
Basically, every time a cultivator comes in, he will be immediately deceived by people from several major forces through various means to join Lingxiao Palace, and pull them into their own camp to reserve votes for the future election of the Palace Master.
"Brother, do you want to join? Join our Lingxiao Palace, and we will be a family from now on!" Pang Liang from the Juling Sect grabbed a cultivator who had just come out of the teleportation channel and asked with a happy face.
“Who are you…? You…you…Pang…Pang…” After the cultivator saw Pang Liang’s face clearly, he was so frightened that he couldn’t speak clearly.
Of course, he knew Pang Liang, a prominent figure in the Juling Sect, one of the six major forces. As a person born in an ordinary family in the Qiongzu Universe, he had fantasized countless times about talking to a figure like Pang Liang, but he never thought that it would be such an occasion, and that Pang Liang took the initiative to find him and was so polite to him.
"Haha, relax, brother. Don't think I'm special. In our Lingxiao Palace, no matter where you come from or how high or low your cultivation is, everyone is equal. We are a family." Pang Liang said with a smile, "How about it? Are you interested in becoming a family member with me?"
"I…I do! I'm in!"
…
Such a scene was played out in every corner of the Changfeng Domain Transmission Hub. People from the six major forces all lowered their postures and started to recruit people to join their organizations.
Even Ji Haoxuan didn't hit people easily anymore. If he could threaten people to join him, he would still use verbal threats. It was not like what he did to the cultivators from Changfeng Domain a while ago. He would just slap them in the face and then threaten them to join his camp. If they didn't join, he would continue to beat them until they surrendered.
Now he also realized that it was difficult to guarantee that the people he had won over by this means would vote for him in the future, so he backed down for the first time and tried not to take action instead of talking.
The cultivators who had just entered Changfeng Domain were also confused. Wasn't there going to be a youth cultivator exchange conference for the Qiongzu Universe? What the hell was this Lingxiao Palace? The exchange conference was about to be held, so why was there no atmosphere of an exchange conference?
Logically speaking, shouldn't the Changfeng Domain Transmission Hub and Changping City be filled with banners for the Qiongzu Universe Young Monks Exchange Conference? How come there isn't a single poster related to the conference?
On the contrary, there were propaganda slogans of the Lingxiao Palace everywhere, and the disciples of the six high-ranking forces were actually polite to them and invited them to join the Lingxiao Palace. This made them doubt their lives and also doubt what they were doing in the Changfeng Domain.
Looking at this scene, Li Mu was quite satisfied. After all, in this way he would not have to show up, and even his subordinates would not have to show up. He could hide behind Lingxiao Palace as much as he wanted. Even if there were problems with Lingxiao Palace and people from the six major forces suspected him, they would not be able to suspect him.
After he fed Lin Hai and others to Lingxiao Jianmu as nutrients 10 years ago, Lingxiao Jianmu had advanced again.
Today, Lingxiao Jianmu has 5,000 first-level branches, 100,000 second-level branches, 10 million third-level branches, 1 billion fourth-level branches, 100 billion fifth-level branches, and the number of sixth-level branches has reached a terrifying 10 trillion.
If he could fill up the leaves of the Lingxiao Palace's current branch of enlightenment, Li Mu believed that he would not be afraid of any of the six major forces, and he would not have to worry about everything in the future.
He has no shortage of branches that can achieve enlightenment, and it seems that he also has no shortage of cultivators who can achieve enlightenment.
After all, the number of local cultivators in Changfeng Domain alone has reached a terrifying number of nearly 20 trillion, which is more than enough to fill his Lingxiao Jianmu.
The quantity is enough, and now what he pursues is quality, targeting the monks who come to participate in the Young Monks Exchange Conference.
Now everything is ready, and he can close his net as soon as the Lingxiao Palace election begins.
