MC can reflect about the journey of cultivation and freedom on the devanic temple.View attachment 45726
True, I remember there was something like that, but I don’t recall exactly what conclusions the MC reached — it’s been a while. From what I understood, you posted an image after the text, correct? I’m blind and my screen reader said there’s a graphic, but I can’t figure out what it is. So if it’s important to understand your reply, I’d be grateful if you could tell me what was after the text.

He sent you a screenshot about the conclusion. Here, I wrote it for you:
Being forced by others to meditate on the existence of freedom is a heavy irony that you have plenty of time to appreciate.

Most scholars agree of the Heavenly Dao, a cosmic force atop the chain of the Celestial Bureaucracy that acts as the Judge over mortal life. Yet if such an entity is to be believed, are the choices that you make really your own, or is everyone guided by a Heavenly plan? It’s an unsolvable debate, or so you thought at first. Each day you sit in contemplation on different sides of the argument and read different scrolls theorizing what the Dao truly is, though by the end of your meditation you reach an epiphany above the petty squabbles of ‘intellectuals’:

The answer lies in Ascension.

The most powerful Martial Artists in history have ascended to the Heavens as greater beings. If the Heavenly Dao is a very real thing that judges all mortals, then the solution is to no longer be mortal. Either the Dao can’t stop individuals from ascending, or their ability to leave the mortal plane behind is within the laws of the universe. Real or not, the control of the Dao ends with Ascension and that means only one thing.

"All this power..." You mumble to yourself in your meditation chamber. "All this time, it's really a journey for freedom."

Your slave comments then if it's all about freedom can he leave.
 
I understand the point, but I just can’t agree. After all, if you’re just going to keep obeying others, then what’s the point of cultivating? Maybe I have a somewhat rigid mindset, but this question isn’t rhetorical. For me, it’s genuinely difficult to think about cultivation without thinking about total and unconditional freedom — or at least the pursuit of it. Of course, sometimes you have to temporarily endure a position of servitude, but the key word here is temporarily. I’ve always thought of cultivation as the pursuit of becoming the undisputed number one in terms of power, reaching a level where you can act on any whim without fear of the consequences. So while I understand our current inability to go against the nobles, I’ll be a bit disappointed if that never changes. I’d like to ask, though: how do you all view cultivation and the MC’s journey? Are your opinions different from mine?
I assume you'll prolly have some leeway, it's not like you'll get bullied by any Noble you face. After all if you look at Keiko, she's quite respectful to the Archon trio and Kaito and Yang aren't the highest of them. But I don't think cultivation is the issue. Archonhood or Archonship or whatever is ultimately a disciplined and privileged position. You get the best training and ressources one can dream of for your station in exchange of loyalty to the Council( or really the Empire).
And also AC is a verse of too many powerhouses, so I doubt you'll ever reach the Gojo status you're the unique honoured one, you'll be part of a group of honoured ones. Unless they all ascend and there is a power vacuum. It's not that you're too weak, it's the verse that is too strong. Tho book 4 is in a thousand years so who know.
If the goal is to be number 1 of all verse, well then ig one more reason to ascend.

Thank you for making it readable, I hope it wasn’t too much trouble. I’m glad to see that the MC and I are even more aligned than I thought.

Freedom here not in the sense of a natural right, but of ambition. Of course he could try to leave, and I would be free to try imposing my own will on him, however.
