These people did not say a word. They did not reveal anything. According to what he knew, Xiao Shi only felt kindness from this silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord.
After the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord looked around at the nine cloaks and bamboo hats in front of him, he suddenly looked at Xiao Shi and said with a smile, “How about… I let you choose first?”
“Hmm?” Not only was Xiao Shi not happy about this, instead, he frowned. He firmly believed that there was no goodwill in this world for no reason. Especially when everyone here was cold to him, this person had been showing kindness. This abnormal action had already aroused Xiao Shi’s high vigilance.
However, the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord had already expected Xiao Shi’s reaction. He explained with a smile. “Don’t worry, I don’t have any intention of harming you. I’m just following my own path. 1 forgot to tell you that the Dao I’m currently controlling is the Kindness Dao!”
Xiao Shi was stunned. “Kindness Dao?” He could not help but think of the control technique he had seen on one of the beginner martial arts robes.
Karma! He realized the Kindness Dao that the other party was currently in charge of was very likely a Dao controlled through karma. But the Kindness Dao was not the Heavenly Dao.
“Could it be that… the Beginner Martial Era can really control many Dao?” Xiao Shi’s heart thumped. Since these people were all here to control the Heavenly Dao, there was no reason for them to control the mortal dao.
The only explanation was that even if they controlled the mortal Dao in the Beginner Martial Era, they could also control the Heavenly Dao! This also explained why the other party did not leave after becoming a Daolord and continued to stay here.
Kindness Dao, back then, through the Record of the Upper Three Realms of the Martial Dao, Xiao Shi had a detailed understanding of the entire Daolord Realm and had a certain understanding of the many Dao that existed in the world.
He knew that there was indeed a Kindness Dao in the world. The Kindness Dao was also a kind of karma. Those in charge of the Kindness Dao usually condensed good fruits through doing good and obtained powerful strength.
For example, after this person did something good to him, he would be able to plant a good fruit on himself. The more he did good to himself, the stronger this good fruit would become. From now on, when his strength and cultivation increased, he could use the good fruit on him to increase at the same time. The stronger the good fruit, the greater the improvement it could obtain.
Which meant, as long as the person in charge of this dao continued to do good, especially to some people with potential and hopes of becoming experts and mighty figures, then he would be able to obtain the most increase.
Of course, the premise was that Xiao Shi would accept his kindness. If Xiao Shi chooses to refuse, then the other party would not be able to plant good karma on him.
“It seems that it’s not just me. He has helped everyone here to a certain extent. He has planted good karma on everyone.” Xiao Shi was enlightened. No wonder this person’s performance was different from the others from the beginning.
So after a short moment of thought, he did not reject the other party’s kindness. Since this person’s actions were out of his own Dao, there was no need to reject him. After all, the Kindness Dao was a path of continuous kindness. It would not bring any harm or hidden danger to oneself.
In fact, to the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord, after he planted the good karma on him, he would only help him continuously. If he encountered any danger or difficulties, the other party would also rescue him. This was because the more help he provided, the stronger the good karma he planted on himself.
However, there was also an exception. If Xiao Shi and the other Sages here fought, the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord would not side with either side. He would only be a peacemaker.
This was because both sides had good karma. He would not be biased. Including letting Xiao Shi choose first this time. To others, it was not considered biased. After all, he had only changed the order of selection with Xiao Shi and let Xiao Shi choose first while he chose last. Instead of relying on his cultivation to force Xiao Shi to cut the queue to be the first, he would choose second.
His change in order with Xiao Shi would not affect the order of the others. Most importantly, he did not tell Xiao Shi about the quality of these identities. This prevented Xiao Shi from directly choosing the “good identity” that others wanted the moment he arrived.
As someone who had experienced eight resets here, the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord had already chosen most of these nine identities. He knew which of the nine identities were relatively easier to control.
As a beginner, Xiao Shi had no understanding of these nine identities at all. In their opinion, Xiao Shi could only rely on luck to choose blindly. Therefore, they could accept Xiao Shi being the first to choose.
They didn’t think that the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord was biased towards the other party. This way, the good karma that the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord had planted on them would not be destroyed.
After all, if he was clearly biased towards either party, the good karma on the others would be damaged to a certain extent. At that time, even if the other party’s cultivation increased, he would not be able to obtain any increase from the good karma.
Whether it was Xiao Shi or the others, they could accept the current outcome.
Xiao Shi did not hesitate..
