Chapter 438 - 304 Establishing Reincarnation
Chapter 438: Chapter 304 Establishing Reincarnation"There wasn’t even a hint..."
Wang Hao thought for a moment and several plans emerged in his mind.
"The Emperor of Heaven," as the supreme commander of the Heavenly Gate, undoubtedly played a very important role.
Only a fair and just system of judgment could correct the chaos of the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Without a solid and reliable system or a clear direction, one would end up like Qiu Yuan Monk, aimlessly wandering, possessing great martial strength but with no place to use it.
"The first is execution, end it once and for all. For such a grave crime, the death penalty is the simplest form of judgment and can also effectively appease public sentiment."
"But it seems too crude and simple."
Because the "Water Ghost King" lacked intelligence; devouring humans was its innate instinct, and even if it were executed, the benefits would be almost nonexistent.
"The second method, reform and make use of it. Qingshi Town is in dire need of development, the productivity is still too low, it’s taking forever just to build a road."
Infrastructure, as a labor-intensive industry, required high demand for productivity. The Mountain and Sea Realm had no cement, no asphalt, and could only quarry rock for road construction, which was far too slow.
Wang Hao even planned for steam trains to connect Qingshi Town, Lake Entrance, Yellow Stone Town with its surrounding mines, and the even more distant coal-producing town, creating a large industrial triangle.
But this plan required a huge amount of productivity.
Even if resources were transported non-stop, turning all two to three thousand residents of the town into laborers who worked day and night would still take years of time.
"If there was a monster that could work day and night, the productivity could be greatly increased. But to give it a chance to repent such a big crime seems too merciful..."
This was a difficult scale to measure.
Wang Hao scratched his head and
"If my sense of good and evil forcibly judged them, it could easily affect the development patterns of human society. A rigid society is not necessarily a good thing."
On the other hand, it was relatively easy to define the "good and evil" of these deities; they mostly lacked high intelligence, did not possess the seven emotions and six sensory pleasures, nor any desires for reproduction and mating.
The Mountain and Sea Realm was a world inherently vulnerable to infiltration and invasion. It was not realistic to completely eradicate all demons and evil spirits. Therefore, it’s better to guide than to block, simply set the right rules, manage the troublemaking "Evil Gods," and let humans decide for themselves what they would become.
"That’s settled then!"
He typed into his phone’s chat box, "Establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation regulations. Cast the Water Ghost King into the Hell Path to toil away day and night, mining and splitting rocks to build roads for ten thousand years until its karmic obstacles are removed before it can reincarnate again."
Originally, the Hell Path in religious scriptures involved punishments of billions of years, which was far too excessive. Now, changing it to ten thousand years, that’s about right.
