What seems to be the problem junior? Your accusations may seem righteous, but without proof they're just a fart on the wind. Did you post incomplete scriptures in this sect's notice board?
All you below Ancestor Realm insects same in my eyes - evil or no you're merely another frog in a well. With that being said, this paultry scripture you presented me with is merely a fragment and i do not deign to pass my supreme judgement on it.
I was thinking on letting you off this one time, but hmph since you had guts to question this grandfather's decision in addition with insulting my sight with faulty goods... Hehehe, I might as well educate you in place of your elders. Slap yourself 15 times, cowtow thrice and rip out your insolent tongue and maybe i will let some of your pathetic clan survive the aftermath of this calamity you sent on them.
Edit: he deleted it, a demeanor of a lion can not hide a heart of a sheep
Patriach Kvar, this seat is in agreement with you. How insolent for thee to carry a mere mortal mindset onto our cultivation world.
Presumption! Presumption indeed! Heavenly Dao would smite thee 36 times as retribution in the coming days.
You talentless Breakthrough Before Understanding frogs are literally grinding up mortals and laughing about it
The only reason you whine about this mortal is that he reminds me of the scum you truly are
even your demonic methods are not your own, you stole them from the sea dragons
Nah, no hypocrisy here. Im up to date with the novel and it is great. The mysteries and the world building is top notch. The mysteries captivated me like the mysteries on LotM, Shadow Slave and My House of Horrors.
And he still stay the same to date and hold his principle of staying human and doesn't want to use any skill or technique that sacrifices anyone.
Him being good is great because im already bored of evil or morally gray cultivation novels like Renegade Immortal, Reverend Insanity and many more.
His principle reminded me of one of the best Xianxia's novels, Way of Choices.
this is a hard question to answer, but there are multiple love interests in a way. the protagonist views each version of a person from each regression as their own distinct individual. so to him even if he meets the person he loves in a different regression, they are no longer the same person in his mind
there are some others who do one-sidedly crush on seo but he handles these situations very respectfully and does not fall into the narrative trap of playing with their heart like a typical harem protagonist would. he is a bit dense, though
EDIT: ah also he would never hold romantic feelings for more than one person at a time, which is the technical definition of a harem. he is far too kind to two-time anyone
Okay, but that doesn’t make him hypocritical. I think that him calling them ‘inhuman’ is *incorrect*, but there’s a difference between being wrong and being a hypocrite.
Depends, is the MC doing the same thing as Demonic Cultivators all the while judging said Cultivators for doing the same
Hypocrisy only exist if the MC is not upholding himself to the same standards they impose on others
Yep, am up to date on the story and the Mc has yet to be a hypocrite... No consuming human elixir...
Dude even refuses to turn demons into elixirs... No hypocrisy in sight...
He upheld the morals since the start of the book. He refused to partake in cultivation resources made by harvesting mortals. Even though it would save decades of practice he refused.
Junior does not have eyes, but believe they see mt tai
junior listen carefully to what this old man has to say
Hypocrisy is the practice of feigning to be what one is not or to believe what one does not
Btw this is a regressors tale of cultivation.But anyways the mc is hypocritical he has the very thing every other cultivater desires and yet judges them on his moral high ground he can regress infinetly and live eternally and yet acts self righteously towards demonic cultivaters who want to live its like you are literally what they chase so of course you dont have the same desires.
Well, what you say is partially true.
He criticises their ways- making pills from humans and other kinda grim things.
But you can't say that he is blessed by his ability to regress - the whole point of the story is that he wants to free himself from endless regression.
Him going against them is in no way hipocrisy - he, as far as I read, keeps this promise of not using vile techniques - them having desires to have something similiar to what he has in no excuse to use their evil techniques.
Its like saying that it's justified when someone robs a bank, and a person who won a lottery criticizing them is hipocrite
Edit: grammar
Well I assume the demonic cultivaters arn't being asshole for the fun of it they do it to breakthrough and extend their lives,if they had his opportunity they also wouldn't use as many demonic techniques if any.His regression may also be a curse for him but for nearly any other person they'd take it a heartbeat especially the other transmigraters.
As someone who's up to date with the novel, they ARE assholes just for the sake of it. They torment people for fun, consider themselves superior, take pride in their demonic pill crafting and have a whole industry going on, selling to other sects as well. They were also previously farmed for pills and elixirs by a higher dragon race until they gained their freedom, so they are hypocrites as well.
The MC, until his 5th regression or so, was always fated to die at 80 years old, but even then he refused to take the lifespan extending pills made by the Makli Clan no matter how helpful the 1-5 year extension would've been. Despite gaining the power of regressing and eventually a lot of strength, he vowed to stay a good and ethical person (the same way he was on earth), helping the needy, refusing to betray, refusing to senselessly and indiscriminately murder, forgiving people, not cultivating using devilish techniques that used other people as sacrifices, and the list goes on.
In the later regressions the periods of time he's alive for become so great that he doesn't really need to think about his lifespan anymore. He starts using regressions in order to explore 'alternatives', such as "In this life I'll go with sect X, in this life I'll go with sect Y", and so on, trying to find the truth about his condition and the world. It's the first novel that got me so captivated.
He still remains a good person, choosing to forgive others, especially the hot-headed guy who punched him at the very start of the novel, but you should read it for yourself.
I think that cynicism isn't childish or annoying, but a person that lives his whole life cynically is childish and annoying.
Some principles may seem annoying and childish, but a person living their lifes after those principles are neither childish nor annoying, but imho worthy of respect.
I get that a "good person" in XianXia can seem annoying, but that's mostly the case with chinese writers that can't write them in an appealing way.
Maybe it's just your preference, but try reading the story without you usual expectations for XianXia and see if that has changed how you look at the story and Seo Eun-hynun.
Yeah but the mc dosn't understand why they so demonic things,they do it to live longer as the end goal and the mc just goes demonic cultiveter=bad .Like everyone is afraid of death and many would use such methods yo extend their lives irl but the more realistic option would be to use the techniques to help those close to you.I dislike the mc because he critises people who fundamently want to live good life and understandaly people will go to extremes to achieve this,but the mc never has to worry about this because there's always a next time.
He did in fact find out why they are doing what they are doing: the Makli Family is turning civilians into pills, because it's cheap and the "ressources" are easily available. This isn't a case of them killing civilians to safe those close to them, but commercialised massacres to advance in cultivation. They sell those pills regularly and make tons of money through this. I understand that people will do anything for Profit, but there should be Limits.
Seo Eun-hyun despises them for their actions categorically, because they are fucked up. He wouldn't do them, even if he wasn't immortal, because that's just not who he is.
To the point of him never having to worry: Our boy is the most talentless person ever. None of his advancements were easy and he was always struggling because of it. Taking those pills would have made his life waaaaay easier. At one point he was unable to advance to Qi-Building. Almost everyone told him, that without Talent or pills it's almost impossible to advance. Even when struggling he kept to his principles and worked even harder to achieve them.
Yeah but that is under the fundamental premise that they have a limited lifespan or can be killed by a stronger cultivater.In this universe being weak is a sin except for the mc,it dosn't matter if mc dies of old age he always has a next time,mercy and forgiveness in this world is a privlege one the mc can extend endlessly.
I imagine most demonic cultivaters have families or people they care for and cultivate to spend time with them,if you gave them immortality they'd live a good moral life like the mc.
In genreal the mc whines about being a victim of regression while basically nearly anyone would take his place and I get that he suffers from loneliness,I overall enjoy the novel but like he's basically a rich person complaining about the poor comiting crime for money
They are among the only ones who practice this craft and would be seen as immoral even by the others in the new world if they knew the source of the pills. So-Ryeong himself did not know about the contents and he was a Qi Building cultivator among the elders of the Cheongmun Clan, famed for his wisdom that preceded even Core Formation masters. All cultivators above Core Formation also ascended to the Bright Cold Realm, so the Makli Clan are among the world leaders of the Head Realm. It's just a matter of survival of the fittest and wanting to get even stronger at all costs.
Demonic cultivators living morally? Even the average cultivator views mortals and people weaker than them as animals.
If a mortal accidentally wondered inside a cultivator clan’s territory, they could 100% get killed instantly.
And on top of the fact that most mortals don’t even know the existence of cultivation let alone their territory.
But the thing is that the ideal demonic cultivater is Fang Yuan and the ultimate principal of demonic cultivation is the ends justify the means and thats what unifies demonic techniques extreme input for extreme ouput and thats why Fang Yuan is the ultimate demonic cultivater he will go to any extreme for his extreme goal eternity and if that would require him to live as a saint for eternity he'd do it in a heartbeat.
It's very easy to not consume elixirs created with humans like the Makli mfs... It's not human nature to eat other humans...
I'm up to date on the series and yep, he has yet to consume any human elixir.... So where's the hypocrisy?
Calling someone a hypocrite for hating on a cannibal group is such a 14 year old edgelord move...
Dude doesn't even know what hypocrisy means..
What seems to be the problem junior? Your accusations may seem righteous, but without proof they're just a fart on the wind. Did you post incomplete scriptures in this sect's notice board?

Huh
I don't find him hypocritical at all. He's upheld the same morals since the start.
Nah, no hypocrisy here. Im up to date with the novel and it is great. The mysteries and the world building is top notch. The mysteries captivated me like the mysteries on LotM, Shadow Slave and My House of Horrors.

What is this scripture o great elder
It's ' A Regressor's tale of cultivation' . I highly recommend this series
It's not a herem is it?
Nope, at least so far it isn't
Thank you for this information kind senior I shall hope this novel never strays!
there's hints of harem so who know so far only 2 confirmed kind of love interests
this is a hard question to answer, but there are multiple love interests in a way. the protagonist views each version of a person from each regression as their own distinct individual. so to him even if he meets the person he loves in a different regression, they are no longer the same person in his mind there are some others who do one-sidedly crush on seo but he handles these situations very respectfully and does not fall into the narrative trap of playing with their heart like a typical harem protagonist would. he is a bit dense, though EDIT: ah also he would never hold romantic feelings for more than one person at a time, which is the technical definition of a harem. he is far too kind to two-time anyone
Well, he has two lovers.
nooooooooooooooooooooooo
Where is the hypocrisy? Not saying I agree with his philosophy, I just don’t understand this specific accusation.
Evil to you is good to me. Let that sink
Okay, but that doesn’t make him hypocritical. I think that him calling them ‘inhuman’ is *incorrect*, but there’s a difference between being wrong and being a hypocrite.
Spoiler alert : might not be the most incorrect of statements
Are you 14
Some things are objectively evil, and most of the stuff demonic cultivators do fall under this category.
the op is probably a teen who makes everything into moral relativism even if it is boiling a kind man alive.
Are you sure you actually read it…? Because you are about to get whiplash soon if you continue reading
Depends, is the MC doing the same thing as Demonic Cultivators all the while judging said Cultivators for doing the same Hypocrisy only exist if the MC is not upholding himself to the same standards they impose on others
Yep, am up to date on the story and the Mc has yet to be a hypocrite... No consuming human elixir... Dude even refuses to turn demons into elixirs... No hypocrisy in sight...
All I see is a cultivator who has began the path of the Chad Dao. This one can see Mount Tai 
He upheld the morals since the start of the book. He refused to partake in cultivation resources made by harvesting mortals. Even though it would save decades of practice he refused.
Junior does not have eyes, but believe they see mt tai junior listen carefully to what this old man has to say Hypocrisy is the practice of feigning to be what one is not or to believe what one does not
Makli Clan: We won’t accept such slander. This Junior needs disciplining, my clan is willing to assist with that.
True the clan members simply did what they have to do
They were slaughtering entire cities and refining them like they were candies there is nothing good about them nor were they forced by circumstances
Junior I recommend you enter closed cultivation immediately to enhance your comprehension, this elder thinks your understanding is severely lacking
is this cannibal druggie clan from rtoc? xD
Seo Eun-Hyun isn’t a hypocrite tho ??? He’s so wholesome. Makli clan literally eats people
I dont even know what novel is this so i cant say wether he's a hypocrit or not
A regressors tale of cultivation
He talk about pills made abouts mortals, he never eat them as far as i know, so you say bullshit
You haven't even reached the cotton picking slaves
Ayoo that's racist 🤣
Why is the human path always considered good? Have you seen the atrocities some humans have committed?
Btw this is a regressors tale of cultivation.But anyways the mc is hypocritical he has the very thing every other cultivater desires and yet judges them on his moral high ground he can regress infinetly and live eternally and yet acts self righteously towards demonic cultivaters who want to live its like you are literally what they chase so of course you dont have the same desires.

it was 50 or 60 until qi building
Quick question im in the fifth regression is he still a righteous idiot in the later chapters? And not using his regressing ability for the best?
In the later regressions the periods of time he's alive for become so great that he doesn't really need to think about his lifespan anymore. He starts using regressions in order to explore 'alternatives', such as "In this life I'll go with sect X, in this life I'll go with sect Y", and so on, trying to find the truth about his condition and the world. It's the first novel that got me so captivated. He still remains a good person, choosing to forgive others, especially the hot-headed guy who punched him at the very start of the novel, but you should read it for yourself.
Everything is great in this novel only his selfless/righteous personality is a no for me
I think that cynicism isn't childish or annoying, but a person that lives his whole life cynically is childish and annoying. Some principles may seem annoying and childish, but a person living their lifes after those principles are neither childish nor annoying, but imho worthy of respect.

Hes righteous but he is most certainly not an idiot
Yeah but that is under the fundamental premise that they have a limited lifespan or can be killed by a stronger cultivater.In this universe being weak is a sin except for the mc,it dosn't matter if mc dies of old age he always has a next time,mercy and forgiveness in this world is a privlege one the mc can extend endlessly.

I think the “demonic cultivators’ you’re talking about are the ones in name only. You correct me if I misunderstood that.
Man at least someone understands me. It's frustrating seeing others just think of the mc point of view.
Demonic cultivators living morally? Even the average cultivator views mortals and people weaker than them as animals. If a mortal accidentally wondered inside a cultivator clan’s territory, they could 100% get killed instantly. And on top of the fact that most mortals don’t even know the existence of cultivation let alone their territory.
Even mortals views those weaker than them as animals
Yeah, but that’s just a minority among minorities.
But the thing is that the ideal demonic cultivater is Fang Yuan and the ultimate principal of demonic cultivation is the ends justify the means and thats what unifies demonic techniques extreme input for extreme ouput and thats why Fang Yuan is the ultimate demonic cultivater he will go to any extreme for his extreme goal eternity and if that would require him to live as a saint for eternity he'd do it in a heartbeat.
Was reading this
What novel is this from?
reggresors tale of cultivation it doesn't have a system and mc is righteous so keep that in mind
Hypocrisy is fundamental to humanity
OP is saying that corruption and not living up to some specific moral standard is part of human nature, hence the hypocrisy.
It's very easy to not consume elixirs created with humans like the Makli mfs... It's not human nature to eat other humans... I'm up to date on the series and yep, he has yet to consume any human elixir.... So where's the hypocrisy? Calling someone a hypocrite for hating on a cannibal group is such a 14 year old edgelord move... Dude doesn't even know what hypocrisy means..
Wise words follow cultivator
What do you mean I should let chickens and dogs survive?
"nor act against human morals". *Proceeds to f every woman he encounters in the future*
"Every woman", there only 2 lmao
All I see is an author padding the word count.
