Omnipotent Husband System

Chapter 201 Paths Of Dao.



Tang Zen asked Hao Ren about the path he wanted to walk. The young man began to contemplate as he sat down on chair. After a minute, he asked, "I read that everything will lead to Dao. Why do we have to choose a path?"

Tang Zen shook her head and replied patiently, "Everything you do holds the potential to lead you to the Dao. Those actions are just the mean. However, path is too multidimension and at the same time it is very simple."

Hao Ren frowned and Tang Zen continued with a faint smile, "The paths are classified in macro and micro. There are too many micro paths, but the macro paths are limited. Many people use them as primary while also dabbling in the micro paths.

Path of the sword, Path of the spear, Path of the Saber, the most widely used spiritual weapons is a major path. The hidden weapons and long range weapons are micro paths. These are the paths of weapons.

After this comes the path of Alchemy, Forging, Inscription, and Beast Taming. These are the four macro support paths. If one follows these paths, he would not be lacking compared to those of the weapons path.

The people who seek Dao through music, fishing, and other vocational activities are the followers of the micro path. The insights of the micro path are very hard to perceive and that is why if a fisherman rises to the pawer, he would be treated as a legend and have the power to use the sky as his fishing grounds."

Hao Ren opened his eyes wide, as he did not expect anything like this. He asked, "What about the path of an emperor, the invincibility path and all?"

Tang Zen sighed and smacked the back of his head as she said, "That is not the path but the Dao Mind. A cultivator has three things that defines him. His Dao Heart, which helps him perceive the path. Then comes the Dao Mind, which allows you to forge your character.

There are many types of sword users, all different from each other. Their path is of the sword because they will only use the sword. Their Dao Mind is invincible because fighting against a sword cultivator is difficult and they hardly lose. Their heart is called the sword heart because they seek the different secrets of their weapon."

Hao Ren nodded and rubbed the back of his head as he leaned back in the chair. He mumbled, "All my life, I have been seeking your acknowledgement. It does not matter anymore. I do hold you guilty but I understand that you all have your own thoughts and sometimes humans get overwhelmed by their dreams and goals. While you did not pamper me a lot, you did not harm me as well.

You still showed care to me even when you do not know how to.

Then I thought maybe doing my best by Lingshi was the goal of my life. Yes, my meridians were cleared early on, but I did not know what I would do with the strength even if I had any. Then you guys told me about the situation back in the spirit shimmer continent.

Initially, I wanted to do my best and get back what belonged to us, however, last night I realized that everything around me is putting a lot of stress on my brain. With so many thoughts it would be difficult to walk any path, right?"

Tang Zen had a solemn expression but she nodded with honesty. Hao Ren sighed and said, "I want to carve a path of my own. The path free of these worldly elements like comparison, struggle, and chasing after various goals that do not make any difference to us."

Tang Zen understood what he wanted to say and asked, "Give me an example."

She was curious, she wanted to see how Hao Ren thought about all this, and the young man complied as he said, "What is the point of cultivation? Mei cannot stay with us because of the DEHB.

What is the point of Hao Family legacy? Is it to gain strength and prestige? You and Old Boy Hao had been civil servants, you have enough prestige among the people who do not try to ride your coattails. Had it not been for the struggle of power, our family would be living happily. No?"

Tang Zen nodded and asked, "Then how do you feel about Han Lingshi's path? She was born in a royal family that is still missed and loved by the people of that nation. What do you think about them?"

Hao Ren thought and said, "Lingshi chose me even when she knew that I do not have anything to offer. Her arrival changed my fate, and I was able to achieve a lot of my dreams, so, I will be by her side, helping her with all that she wants and at the same time I would walk my own path.

She can have all the power and praise, all I want is for her to look at me with a smile that does not change even if the entire world does not care about me."

Tang Zen thought for a bit and replied, "Good. Since you know what you want, it makes things easy. You wish to support Lingshi, so you should master some skills before you go to the Spirit Shimmer Continent. The reason we wish for you to go first is simple. You are stronger than her, and if you stay here, you will not grow any stronger.

This world does not have any potent treasures of heaven and hell that could allow you to regain your innate yin or yang essence so that you can dual cultivate either. Also, since you wish to be by her side, you will be her first sword. I think you know what that means."

Hao Ren nodded and said, "I understand. I will be the first scout and at the same time, I will be gaining strength and establishing connections. She must ascend the throne, and I will help her with that. The helping hand needs to be stronger to pull someone up or it will be dragged down."

Hao Ren looked at his mother nodding at him, as she left the table promising that she would be back soon. He decided to talk to the system, 'System, you have always given me tasks, and only one time you gave Lingshi the instruction to channel those flames. Why is so? Can she rise to become the strongest peak by herself?'

*Ding: Host, you are over reaching your authority. You are not yet strong enough to peek through the heavenly secrets.*

Hao Ren asked, 'Then can you tell me why do the elders say that our fate is dependent on each other?'

*Ding: Fate works in mysterious ways and not everything needs a reason. When you are strong enough, you will find out the reason about why your fates are connected.*

Hao Ren wanted to ask more questions but the system said, *Ding: Host, please do not talk to me as if I am your therapist. Learn to deal with things yourself.*

Hao Ren was stunned, and now Tang Zen had come back she said, "Let's go."

The training was about to begin.
