For this reason, don't think that holding symposiums and discussing with outside colleagues every time these old dragons make breakthroughs is a selfless act. In fact, the suggestions they hear from other people also have a great influence on them. Helpful, it can be said that having other people's experience and suggestions can increase their chances of successfully overcoming the next bottleneck. Although this improvement may not be large, it is still an improvement in the end, and it is better than nothing.
The same is true for these old dragons themselves. At the symposium after each breakthrough, they will give public lectures and impart their experiences when they just broke through. However, of course, they only talk about the routine or more critical parts. It is enough to provide inspiration or reference for others. As for the core or the most critical part of your own research, of course you need to keep it private.
This is not to say that the true dragons are more selfish. On the contrary, the monks in the true immortal world are more selfish. The reason why these old dragons conduct research in various fields is entirely due to interest. In the beginning, whatever they researched was selfless to everyone. Colleagues made it public, but many of them stole their research results as their own and claimed that they were their own research results. This made the old dragons of the True Dragon Clan very disgusted, so over time, the current situation of hiding secrets was formed. .
Although the monks in the True Immortal World are very angry about this, they think that these rat droppings have spoiled the pot of porridge, causing their other monks who are conducting normal research to also be greatly affected. If we want to say that in the very beginning of the True Immortal World If the monks can benefit a lot from the old dragons of the True Dragon Clan, then they can only get some benefits now. Although this is better than nothing, the intelligence records in the jade slips still say that they are very Jealousy of those fellow True Immortals who benefited from it in the first place.
However, they can understand this kind of thing. After all, not everyone can be truly selfless. Especially when your selflessness is regarded as your obligation by others, this dissatisfaction will become more intense.
They are also very helpless. Let alone plagiarizing the research results of these old dragons, plagiarism is too common in the True Immortal World, because they do not have much concern about the hiding behavior of these old dragons. Opinions, if the other party is willing to tell some key points, they are already satisfied.
For the old dragons, the suggestions from the monks in the True Immortal Realm can be used as an important reference, but for them, the parts spoken by the other party are enough to give them a feeling of enlightenment.
It is impossible for them to selflessly tell others the really key part. After all, this is the result of their own hard work. Some of them may even have just one research result in their entire life. If they let others If you plagiarize, it will be even worse than death.
Therefore, no matter who is in this regard, they will choose to keep a guard up. It is the same whether in the real immortal world or in many lower realms. It is necessary to be on guard against others.
Take the True Dragon Clan in the human world as an example. The True Dragon Clan in the human world is similar to our own clan in the True Immortal World. There are many old dragons who are concentrating on studying various side fields. After all, this is a tradition from this clan. , even if the clan does not deliberately spread it, it will still slowly affect various branches.
Among the true dragon clan in the human world, there are many old dragons who are older than their supreme dragon god. This is just because they have been in seclusion and research for a long time like the old dragons in the upper world. Thousands of them are I'm afraid they may not wake up once every year, so the monks in the human world basically treat them as if they don't exist.
Among the many famous true dragon clans, there is one whose influence has been extremely far-reaching. It still affects the entire world of cultivation in the human world, whether it is the Eastern Continent or Yizhou. Even Ye Qingcheng and Chu Aotian are Rather than having a key point, this person is the ancient smelting master Fudo in their clan.
He is one of the old dragons born from the True Dragon Clan in the human world in ancient times. Like other old dragons, he was not interested in the sect field at the beginning, but practiced like other people. , but the True Dragon Clan is an extremely transcendent ethnic group in both the True Immortal World and the Human World. Even if they are restricted to the human level by the interface will of the Human World, their True Dragon Clan are still an insurmountable and terrifying ethnic group, let alone like those in the Real World. In the fairy world, there is no one who dares to have a conflict with any clan member.
It can be said that since the clan in the upper world created this branch in the human world, the True Dragon clan has always been firmly seated as the largest clan in the human world. No one dares to challenge, no one dares to offend, and no one dares to disturb. However, they were quite dependent on dragon energy and were unwilling to leave the dragon domain they created in the human world. Over time, they naturally felt that life was simply boring like their own people in the human world, so most of the people at that time Then they also followed the example of the old dragons of their own clan in the upper world, and each chose some side fields to study.
Although there are many research results in these side fields in the upper world, and they are often very profound and brilliant, they do not study for the sake of studying, but just to pass the long and boring time, especially The lifespan of the True Dragon Clan is so long. Even if they don't practice cultivation, they can still live for endless years. If they don't find something to do, they will be suffocated to death.
What they want is to conduct research on their own and open up a new path. The stranger the path, the better they can spend their time. Therefore, no one is willing to consult other people in the upper realm who are conducting research in the same field. Old dragons.
Young tribesmen like Huan Chenyu or Qinghuang Erlong may still have some things to do since they were born not long ago, but if we give them another few thousand years, they will be like other people. This is also Qinghuang Erlong. One of the important reasons why Huang Erlong left the tribe was that they had countless things to do in the outside world, instead of being autistic within the tribe like other tribesmen.
This was what Fudo was like back then. After he started practicing for a period of time and became the Demon Emperor, the novelty for him wore off. Even if he didn't take it seriously, no outside monk in that era of cultivation could become him. After being extremely disappointed, he chose smelting as his research direction for the rest of his life and invested an astonishing amount of time in it.
