Chapter 165: Double Meaning
Grain Rain, in the solar term, meant that rain brought about hundreds of grains. Myriad Tao Immortal Palace took its image of the prosperity of all things, so it held a tao conference every year during Grain Rain.
But it had nothing to do with the grain harvest...
For a place where obsessed people gathered, many people were not even interested in participating, so this kind of conference wasn't so competitive. Many sessions became like tea parties. Of course, not every session was so peaceful, there was still competition.
Especially when the prize was very useful, it was inevitable to fight for what they wanted.
In fact, Qin Yi felt a little sorry for the Palace Master of the Immortal Palace whom he had never met before.
Judging from the nature of Myriad Tao Immortal Palace, it was definitely not established by the Palace Master to pass on his legacy. It should be a gathering of all kinds of obsessed people to form a society that supported each other and to fight against the "mainstream". From this perspective, the founder of Myriad Tao Immortal Palace should be a hero with great ideals and vision.
But the reality was very harsh.
Everyone in this sect was just doing their own things, so what was the use of this sect? To say the least, they might have good cultivation, but they had no combat experience. If the enemy invaded, how could they possibly defend themselves?
That’s why there was a balance to be maintained in pursuing cultivation. For an individual, no matter how ignorant he was of the world and no matter how obsessed he was with his interests, he couldn't ignore his own practical experience. For a sect, there was also cohesion, centripetal force, the training of outstanding successors, etc.
