The Fourth Financial Crisis

In fact, Tan Sijun's guess was correct. Yuntianhua was indeed playing a trick this time.

Although the loopholes in the Heavenly Way that Li Qingyang created in the Six Paths of Merit Golden Wheel have been repaired by the three ascended immortals, when it comes to grasping the moral judgment standards of the Nine Provinces Heavenly Way, I am afraid that no one in the Kyushu cultivation world is more proficient than Li Qingyang.

The bitter plot that Yuntianhua just launched was casually proposed by Li Qingyang in his last words to Yang Lu and Li Qingning, making full use of the "legitimate defense" principle in Kyushu Tiandao.

Since Kyushu Tiandao's free conscience is a huge component, Kyushu Tiandao's principle of legitimate defense is far broader than the determination of legitimate defense in Earth law.

For example, when someone is attacked by an enemy, not only the attacker himself, but also his accomplices will be judged as attackers. Even those who are standing sentry outside without taking action will also be judged as accomplices by the law of heaven, and thus temporarily lose their ability. There are almost no loopholes in the protection of heaven.

During the Third Lingshi Financial Crisis, Ma Tianyi used the principle of self-defense to kill the Nascent Soul assassin sent by the Shenhuo Sect to assassinate Lu Yang.

It is not that no one tried to take advantage of the loopholes of Tiandao before, but because the moral judgment of Jiuzhou Tiandao is very intelligent, these guys who tried to take advantage of the loopholes all failed in the end and lost more merit, so everyone slowly It is also acquiesced that Jiuzhou Tiandao is the product of heaven and earth, and there are no loopholes to exploit. Many cultivators even worship Tiandao as some kind of omniscient and omnipotent god.

This kind of reverence for the way of heaven also makes Jiuzhou cultivators increasingly afraid to test the authority of the way of heaven.

However, Li Qingyang's situation is rather special.

Since the founders of the Golden Blade Sect once accidentally discovered major loopholes in the Heavenly Way of the Nine Provinces, and Li Qingyang witnessed with his own eyes the entire process of the Ascension Immortal repairing the loopholes in the Heavenly Way, he realized very early that the Heavenly Way of the Nine Provinces was not perfect.

Therefore, Li Qingyang has never stopped testing the rules of heaven over the years.

If it were anyone else who has been frantically testing the bottom line of Heaven's Law for hundreds of years, I'm afraid they would have gone crazy and died long ago. Even if you just instigated others to test Heaven's Law, Kyushu Heaven's Law will judge you as the mastermind behind the scenes and deduct the deduction. Your merits.

Unless he is completely desperate, no big figure in the world of cultivation can withstand such a huge consumption of merit.

But Li Qingyang doesn't have to worry about this problem.

Because when he was young, he used the loopholes in the Heavenly Dao discovered by the founder of the Golden Knife Sect to increase his merits crazily. He even used the bug method to get extremely close to cultivating the legendary seventh golden wheel of merits. Only then was he stopped by the Ascension Immortal. .

And after the Ascension Immortal discovered this, he did not hold him accountable for taking advantage of the loopholes in the heavenly way. It was a disguised admission that the merit he gained by taking advantage of the loopholes was legal.

Therefore, Li Qingyang can be said to be the cultivator who has accumulated the second most merit in the history of Jiuzhou cultivation world, second only to his registered teacher Lu Yang, and even richer than the legendary monk Bo Nanke who also possesses the Golden Wheel of Six Paths of Merit.

After realizing that his merit accumulation has far exceeded the level of the Six-Path Golden Wheel of Merit, but is already far away from the Seventh-Path Golden Wheel of Merit, Li Qingyang, as one of the cultivators with the most scientific research spirit and the greatest power in the world of cultivation, Li Qingyang Use all these rich merits to study the loopholes in the operation of heaven.

The effective mechanism of this principle of legitimate defense is one of Li Qingyang's most important research results.

Although Li Qingyang did not inherit Mr. Lu's "Infinite Heart Sutra - From Beginner to Mastery", so he could not see his specific merit values, but after thousands of controlled experiments, Li Qingyang still discovered through big data methods that there should be a way of heaven in Kyushu. There is a hidden numerical judgment system. Not only that, Li Qingyang even discovered that when Jiuzhou Tiandao judges the final nature of something, it actually judges it through this hidden numerical system.

This hidden merit value determination system is also easy to understand. If we still use legitimate defense as an example, then what kind of behavior will be judged as legitimate defense by Kyushu Tiandao?

If I accidentally touch you, you will kill me in turn. This is definitely not called legitimate defense. If Kyushu Tiandao calls this behavior legitimate defense, then the entire Kyushu cultivation world will definitely be in chaos.

Therefore, Li Qingyang was keenly aware that there must be a certain critical point in this judgment of legitimate defense. Even Yang Lu, who had a cultivation plug-in and could check the specific value of his own merit at any time, did not discover this inference.

In order to find out where the critical point of legitimate defense is, Li Qingyang secretly recruited many dead men (guinea pigs) to conduct repeated experiments. Finally, he found that Kyushu Tiandao would give a hidden score to all harmful behaviors before legitimate defense occurred. .

For example, if I accidentally step on you, the hidden score of this behavior is -1. If I punch you hard, the hidden score of this behavior is -5. If I activate the Qi Refining Stage The hidden score of a magic killing move is -10. If I raise my hand and it is a killing move in the Nascent Soul stage, the hidden score is -100.

Of course, this is just a simplification.

According to Li Qingyang’s test, he found that the principle of assigning merit points is very complicated. For example, the level of cultivation of both parties will also affect the assignment of hidden merit points. If the injurer’s cultivation level is lower than that of the victim, then his harmful behavior will be deducted. The merit points will be greatly reduced, but if a high-level monk beats a child, the merit points will be doubled.

Therefore, Li Qingyang did not figure out how this numerical system was calculated through reverse engineering until the end.

Nonetheless, Li Qingyang discovered some important principles.

For example, although Jiuzhou Tiandao will punish evil deeds, not all evil deeds will be deducted from merit. Only when the hidden score accumulated by a certain evil deed is lower than the critical value, will Jiuzhou Tiandao judge it as a malignant event. Deduct the merit of the evildoer.

Li Qingyang once asked volunteers to do relatively low-level vicious behaviors, such as insulting ordinary people. However, after several consecutive years, this person's merit accumulation has not decreased, which shows that Jiuzhou Tiandao does not care about those trivial matters. matter. Only when the nature of the malignant incident reaches a certain level will it enter the judgment standard of heaven.

Therefore, Li Qingyang naturally realized that legitimate defense must have its own critical standards.

Then Li Qingyang began to organize manpower and frantically tested on the verge of death. Although he still failed to deduce the hidden evaluation system of legitimate defense, he also summarized many practical rules.

The most typical one is the cultivation level of both parties. If the attacker's cultivation level is higher than that of the victim, then all deducted hidden merit points will be greatly increased; for example, if the victim receives more serious injuries, the greater the damage caused. Then the higher the hidden score will be deducted; also, the attacker must intentionally harm the opponent to deduct the merit. The victim takes the initiative to hit the opponent's mace with the Tianling Cap. This kind of collision will not deduct the attacker's hidden score. points; finally, if the victim is the first to take action, the hidden points will not be deducted.
