NOVPUBChapter 1035: Chapter 896: The Land May Change, But Human Nature Remains. Chapter 1035: Chapter 896: The Land May Change, But Human Nature Remains. When Lin Yun first entered the Heavenly Principle Tower, those from the Immortal Origin World and Earth who had not been taken by Lin Yun had not yet reacted to what was happening.
Even some were very happy and excited. Lin Yun had emerged, the Ghost Practitioner leaders had fled, and other Ghost Practitioners were either killed by Lin Yun or had fled. So, did that mean they were safe now?
However, it wasn’t long before some began to realize.
Lin Yun had also left, and moreover, he had just taken some people away, only leaving them behind, and the surrounding environment was still filled with ghostly energy. Would those Ghost Practitioners come back? If they did, how could they possibly be a match for them?
Furthermore, without a Super Warrior like Lin Yun to lead them, how could they survive in this foreign Star Domain?
“Lin Yun has abandoned us!”
“Because we cursed at him just now, that’s why he didn’t take us with him. A Super Warrior of such standing, yet so petty…”
“Come back quickly and take us too!”
“Damn it, it’s all because of you that we were captured by those Ghost Practitioners. Now, with such dense ghostly energy here, it’s impossible to survive. You must take full responsibility, hurry up and settle us in a normal place!”
“We are all people of Earth, how can you still be human if you abandon us like this?”
“Please, take us away…”
Soon, more and more people from the Immortal Origin World and Earth raised their voices, some cursing angrily, others pleading, and so on in various tones.
However, Lin Yun did not return.
Inside the Heavenly Principle Tower.
Seeing Lin Yun’s successful return, both the True Martial Saint Lord and the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower were very happy.
“Lin Yun, about those people outside…” But then, the True Martial Saint Lord hesitated.
Unlike the self-centered Langya Saint Lord and the normal human mindset of Lin Yun, the True Martial Saint Lord’s personality tended to be somewhat too kind-hearted, perhaps because he had grown up in the Immortal Origin Holy Land since childhood or perhaps due to the entrusted duty from Grand Master Taoist Ancestor Er Lee, making him very concerned about and attentive to the cultivators of the Immortal Origin World.
At this moment, seeing Lin Yun leaving so many people outside without bringing them in, he couldn’t help feeling a bit distressed.
“These people have no sense of gratitude or discernment of right and wrong. I don’t think they are worth saving. If I did save them, I fear my future cultivation would not go smoothly!” Lin Yun shook his head as he spoke.
He was quite direct and did not conceal the selfish aspect of his character.
The spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower disapproved of the behavior of the people outside as well, but if the True Martial Saint Lord truly insisted on bringing those people into the space of the Heavenly Principle Tower, it wouldn’t really mind.
As long as they didn’t provide those people with too comfortable an environment and just let them stay in the space of the Heavenly Principle Tower, it wouldn’t consume too much energy.
However, upon hearing Lin Yun’s words, the face of the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower immediately changed, and it quickly turned to the True Martial Saint Lord saying, “True Martial, Lin Yun is right. Those people are too shameless, not worth our rescue at all! Do you believe that if we save them now, and someone later slightly tempts them with some benefits, they will immediately betray us?”
At this point, in the eyes of the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower, nothing was more important than Lin Yun’s cultivation.
Those people outside, who might affect Lin Yun’s cultivation, it absolutely would not allow them into its space. If Lin Yun gave the order, it would even proactively eliminate those people.
“This…” The True Martial Saint Lord felt troubled and said, “What if among those people is the reincarnation of your master…”
This matter was indeed very important to him because it was the most significant task the Grand Master Taoist Ancestor had left to him before departing this universe.
The possibility he mentioned was not impossible, given that there were numerous people from the Immortal Origin World and Earth there, and according to Grand Master Taoist Ancestor, it was within these people that the reincarnation of his friend was most likely to emerge.
“If that’s what you’re worried about, you don’t need to worry at all! The core of life is that speck of the true spirit. The true spirit enters into reincarnation and is reborn; memories can change, experiences can change, but the true spirit’s nature is extremely difficult to alter. As the saying goes, it is easier to change rivers and mountains than to alter one’s nature. In the case where the true spirit remains unchanged, even if a person goes through reincarnation, their temperament won’t change much. My master, even if reborn, would absolutely not become someone like those outside!” Hearing the True Martial Saint Lord’s words, the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower breathed a sigh of relief, then sneered, saying.
“There’s such a theory?” The True Martial Saint Lord was intrigued.
He wasn’t very knowledgeable about the reincarnation and rebirth of powerful beings.
“These people are so shameless; their true spirits’ nature is probably very corrupt. In their past lives, or the lives before that, and in future lives, or the lives after, they might continue to be this way, so they are not worthy of pity, nor do they deserve our help!” The spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower nodded emphatically.
The nature of the true spirit?
Hearing the words of the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower, Lin Yun was contemplative. His understanding of the reincarnation and rebirth of powerful beings was even less than that of the True Martial Saint Lord.
This was the first time he had heard someone mention the term “nature of the true spirit,” but listening to the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower, he felt it made a lot of sense.
“On Earth, some sects preached that if one does good deeds in this life, the next life might be better, with notions of being good for ten lifetimes or a hundred lifetimes, perhaps a gradual process of changing the nature of the true spirit…” Lin Yun thought to himself.
It is easier to change rivers and mountains than to alter one’s nature, but this does not mean it is impossible to change.
