If the sect doesn't accept geniuses, they will become giants once they leave?

Chapter 424 The Function of the Four Pillars

It was the first time that Li Yanmo heard that Dayu's Taoism had such a miraculous effect on the universe, and he was amazed.

Nuyao seemed a little dissatisfied with Li Yanmo's reaction, "I clearly told you before that cultivators will affect the operation of the universe."

"Yes, yes?"

"No, no?" After being asked this by Li Yanmo, Nuyao became a little unconfident.

"So, apart from the Six Paths Sect, all other super sects of Dayu's Taoist tradition are responsible for the operation of a certain part of the universe through the Taoist Pillars?" After successfully scaring Nuyao, Li Yanmo pinched his chin and thought about the Taoist traditions of other super sects. It's a pity that not all super sects have the same simple and clear names as the Six Paths Sect.

But Lily Jiang's next words shocked Li Yanmo so much that he stood up directly.

"Not all super sects, but... all sects."

Lily Jiang raised her finger and said lightly, “The millions of sects in the Dao Sect, even the lesser-known ones, are using the Dao Pillar to sort out and calibrate the operation of the universe.”

Li Yanmo swallowed subconsciously, but quickly realized, "Because, now all the cultivators are from the Dayu Daoist lineage? To be more precise, every cultivator from the Dayu Daoist lineage is using the Dao Pillar to sort out and calibrate the operation of the universe. The sect's Daoist lineage is just categorizing these cultivators to improve the calibration efficiency?"

"That's right~" Lily Jiang flicked her pipe, "Dayu originally wanted to sort out and calibrate the operation of the world on his own, but after actual operation, he found that it was not realistic at all, so he took the initiative to promote the birth of the Dayu Sect."

"Things that are beneficial to the universe will be preserved, and those that are harmful will be ruthlessly destroyed. Step by step, we will try and improve them. The standard by which Dayu judges what is beneficial and what is harmful is..."

Li Yanmo nodded and said simply, "Will it affect the people of the world?"

"That's right. The people are the roots of the dynasty. Only good roots can bear good fruits. The world has long been devastated by the disaster of the Great Wilderness. If we want to repair the damage caused by the monks, it can only be filled by the monks, and the monks come from the people." Jiang Baili shook her head and sighed, "This was their original idea, and it was also their only choice when they had no other choice."

"But balance... well, it's not a question of balance. Because of the Immortal Palace's covert manipulation, the Dao Sect gradually separated from Dayu. Without the supplies of millions of Daoist sects, the Imperial State, which maintained the Dao Pillar, was increasingly depleted. Fortunately, these Daoist sects and lineages remained intact due to the Immortal Palace's influence, maintaining their ability to coordinate and align the operations of the Thousand Thousand Worlds, each fulfilling their respective responsibilities."

Lily Jiang paused and added, “Normally, this matter must not be told to anyone, but considering your current status and importance to Dayu, it doesn’t hurt to tell you. After all, you just sent 900 billion pieces of top-grade spirit stones not long ago.”

Li Yanmo crossed his arms and nodded, "I see. No wonder Dayu is so tolerant of the sect."

Lily Jiang curled her lips and said, "Tolerance has its limits. Not everyone thinks like you that transcendence is just a waste of time. Once it is left alone for a long time, those cultivators will gradually become perverted and empty due to their long lifespans, and pursue transcendence for unknown reasons."

"The existence of cultivators has always been a hidden danger. Therefore, Dayu's ultimate goal is to sort out all the hidden dangers left by the Great Wilderness, and then start to separate the cultivators from the people of the Great Thousand World, and restore the state before the birth of the cultivation method."

"It's a pity that the cultivators have such a huge influence on the people. Although they haven't turned the people into a mess like they did in the Great Wilderness, it's not a good sign that the people revere the cultivators and think that everything can be solved by them."

"I've heard Ji Lie say something similar," Li Yanmo recalled the conversation he had with Ji Lie at Emperor Lie's tomb. "He believes that the existence of cultivators hinders the growth and progress of the people of Dayu."

"Ah... these Yu Emperors are like this. Compared to lofty goals, they are more interested in the things in front of them," Lily Jiang pinched the bridge of her nose, as if she was reminiscing, but also as if she had a headache because of the stubbornness of some people. "You can't always think about saving the world. Too lofty and ambitious goals will corrode a person's will and tempt those who embark on this path to take shortcuts. The consequences caused by shortcuts can never be solved by shortcuts."

"Everything must be repaired brick by brick, step by step, and the people are the bricks and tiles that rebuild this new world."

Li Yanmo nodded in understanding, but then he thought of another thing, "Then what happened with Jianmen...will it have any impact on the world?"

"The Sword Gate itself isn't a problem. The problem is that it will attract a large number of sword cultivators, who will activate the abandoned Sword Pillars. The Sword Pillars and the Weapon Pillars have similar functions, but their underlying logic is different. If they are simultaneously embedded in the operation of the Great Thousand World, they will repel each other and even get out of control. For example..."

Lily Jiang thought for a while, then raised her finger and pointed at her eyes, smiling.

"Maybe you don't know, actually..."

"The immune system of the eyeball and the immune system of the body are completely independent. If the immune system of the body discovers the existence of the eyeball, it will directly attack and destroy the eyeball," Li Yanmo raised his finger and bent it.

Lily Jiang opened her mouth, revealing a rare deflated expression, “I finally had the opportunity to come up with this theory.”

Li Yanmo ignored Jiang Baili and paced back and forth, continuing to analyze, "The Dao Pillar is responsible for reproduction, the Soldier Pillar is responsible for cleaning, which means that the Buddha Pillar and the Holy Pillar also undertake some extremely primitive but important mechanisms-"

Li Yanmo paused, "Then why can there only be four pillars?"

"Have you forgotten? Cultivators are meant to take shortcuts. Even if their original intentions are good, they cannot change the fact that they are using the power of cultivators to influence the world. Therefore, the four pillars are the limit number that will not cause a counterattack from the world," Jiang Baili raised her hand and waved, "Now Dayu will let it go and promote the Jianmen incident here."

"The sword pillar is broken. Even if the sword gate is erected again, it will not affect the soldier pillar itself."

Li Yanmo suddenly realized, which means it doesn’t matter if his Taixu Sect is exposed?

Of course, Li Yanmo didn't intend to cause trouble. If the matter of Taixu Sect could be kept secret, it would be better to keep it secret.

"So, after asking for a long time, you found out that there is someone who is actually a cultivator of the Great Wilderness Taoist Sect," Lily Jiang turned sideways, looking in the direction of the wooden house courtyard.

Jian Xin, who was drinking tea, raised his eyes but did not say anything.

"It's definitely not the Six Paths Sect, nor the Lieyang Sect, Tianchi Mountain, or the Immortal Valley... It looks like it's the Cangtian Sword Sect."

Lily Jiang laughed.
