Chapter 172: Golden Core Disciple
In this world, people often see only the surface of things and then make assumptions about how things will unfold; or they judge someone’s true nature based on their appearance, demeanor, and actions.
More often than not, they are wrong.
An ugly person isn’t necessarily evil, and beneath a beautiful appearance, purity isn’t always guaranteed. Righteousness doesn’t always come from the ordinary, and the most heartless individuals may often be scholars. In the mundane world, people are easily enchanted and infatuated with beautiful men and women, believing their loved ones are perfect and without fault.
Even in the realm of cultivation, this tendency persists. Many people revere and admire high-level cultivators, believing that legendary figures like Golden Core cultivators, Nascent Soul experts, and even Divine Transformation lords are all-powerful.
This isn’t about the path of cultivation but simply human nature.
We are so weak that we are accustomed to looking up at the tall and mighty. We misjudge the height of these figures, believing them to be as high as mountains or even reaching the heavens, forgetting that everything we see comes from our own perspective and limited vision.
When we can’t see far, we use imagination to fill our expectations.
