The poor family of 3 adults worked everyday to the bone to make 10 tael a month. As a herb picker, the old Xu Ning and the new one faced dangers in the wild which could mean death. The guard stands around and looks imposing, occasionally raising their voice to break up fights and very rarely intervening, yet he makes 10 taels without much effort.

At this stage, they want to foment conflict to break down the 'Village' identity between the trainees and amongst themselves, since even members of the same village can be greedy against each other. Typical breakdown and remolding that all armies go through. In the marines, 'you aren't brown/white/yellow/black - you are all green' for example.

No there hasn't. So far, she simply thinks to herself. But they actually haven't had personal interactions between themselves.

I don't understand the part about rules. I thought the reason why Changshou, Lang and Hong Jun are strong is that they have fundamental differences of thoughts, not cheats. They all started out as limited by the same rules and limitations as everything and everyone else, as shown when Changshou used the idea of Schrodinger's Cat to trick Sadness of the Seven Emotions and him unlocking Golden Core early on, its not that no one can do it, its just no one ever thought, instead of the normal cultivation, I'll form a Gold Core instead. They unlock secrets, because to them, those things are normal.

Changshou himself realized her level was half step saint, long ago, if not for the crack in her heart, she could have advanced. That was the one mention of her level, despite being an ancient figure almost older than everyone in the series. Also not sure why you are putting GPO as not saint. GPO and his clone, Grand Elder both have the same power (their Yin/Yang reflection being equal with each other).

Xuan Du, Guang, Duobao, and their teachers are almost all worthless before Heng'e teacher. Their power is always boosted by their legendary treasures. Slapping golden roc isn't amazing. What is amazing is she defeated one of the most powerful bodies from the ancient world, the son of the phoenix, with just a wave of her hand. Also, Corpse Slaying in this world, at least under Hong Jun is just another shackle, designed to facilitate the absorption of Violet Qi. Which is why Changshou never dared to practice is. Since the Heavenly Dao had a will.

The secret supporter on Changshous side was Heng'e, the Moon Maiden. If you reread the Golden Roc arc, you'll see that despite his speed and power (so strong that he even beat Yang Jian without the god slaying spear later on due to his monstrous body), Roc was beaten in a single move by Heng'e. She made one move and instantly defeated him. That was a hint that she was super POWERFUL. Changshou even speculated that if not for the crack in her heart caused by the missing memory, she could be a Saint naturally, as in a Limitless Chaos Dao Saint, not a Heavenly Saint. When Changshou meets her and talks to her, that was when he first suspected some secrets. After all, Heng'e is forbidden from leaving the Moon without special permission. She actually knew the person responsible was the Dao Ancestor, but needed confirmation. Due to her special status, Dao Ancestor couldn't bear to kill her. Despite the repeated visits to the Qiong Peak, Dao Ancestor never used Dao Shackles on Ling'e or anyone else there which he could have to make Changshou reveal several cards. Heavenly Dao clones never attacked. Not even Western Saints or Maitreya attacked in the dark. Its easy to forget Heng'e, because it just seems like she's a nobody, but she's actually connected to the main super powers, Lang and all his clones. The one time you see her power, it's played as a joke against roc... Then you realize, roc beat yang Jian who was boosted with the Goddess blood like it was nothing.

The Steadiness Dao and Changshou...999/1000 xianxia mcs are in shame before this senior brother.

Hahaha. That's our boy Changshou. 100 trump cards ready and waiting. The moment he was safe, he embraced a completely different cultivation system than the world and became super powerful, all over again. Sigh, has there ever been a MC as safe and steady as Changshou? Hahahaha

They dont get dealt with iirc. They could have been Heavenly Dao clones or people working for Heavenly Dao, and since it has been supplanted by the new Heavenly Dao, none of them will make a move.

Ages ago, the Dao Ancestor killed Qi Yuan, a random Turbid Immortal. Today, the disciple of that minor Turbid Immortal shackled the Dao Ancestor, created a new Heavenly Dao, suppressed and rearranged the Dao of all things and began a new world.

In the end, the guy who sacrificed everything to protect his life, abandoning his ideals could not understand the man who would sacrifice everything for his ideals.

The fight is over. Changshou already beat Dao Ancestor here. Whats left is a crippled Hong Jun who is going to be killed by all his main enemies.

Hong Jun's greatest strength became his greatest weakness. All the time, he was so happy to sit on top of the world and use the Heavenly Dao, he never once wondered what would happen if the rules were not set by him.

He did... by Accident! Hahahah. In the end, too many people hate Hong Jun.

Lmao. Hong Jun doesnt realized still. He thought Changshou something important. Its not steady to have 98%. You must be 100%. Changshou already has the way out. Nothing Hong Jun can do will change his eventual defeat.

Hahaha. Even at this late stage, all Hong Jun can think about is Grand Pure One. If Pure One couldnt beat Hong Jun before, why would steady Changshou seek his help now? Just goes to show you that deep down, Hong Jun is a coward and afraid of Grand Pure One, even now.
