Chapter 694 Choosing a Path

Chapter 694 Choosing a Path

In the void, the master and the disciple sat opposite each other, performing Brownian motion in the universe like a meteor, floating randomly at an extremely fast speed.

But movement is relative. In a place like the void, no matter how you float, you will feel as if you are not moving in place. There is no reference for you to compare your speed.

As long as two people are in a relatively still state, it doesn't matter how they fly in the void outside the territory. Anyway, they will feel still.

It's like two people talking to each other while drinking milk tea face to face on the earth. Who can realize that the earth and themselves are rotating around the Milky Way in the universe at a speed of more than 200 kilometers per second?

"How was it? How was the harvest?" Zhu Fengdan said to Li Qi.

"Thank you, teacher, it's not bad...it's just a little bit tortured." Li Qi sighed helplessly.

Even with Li Qi's mind, he was almost driven crazy by torture. Even now, he has not returned to normal. After so many billions of retracements, Li Qi spent most of his life here in Xiantian. .

Yes, compared with the length of his life, this period of time in Xiantian has been much longer than his previous life combined.

"Look, I told you before I came here. If you don't erase the memories, it will be very painful. If you don't listen, you still have a chance to regret it. Do you want me to help you erase these memories?" Zhu Fengdan smiled. .

Li Qi shook his head decisively: "I have already suffered a lot. If I erase it now, it is nothing more than deceiving myself and others. Let's keep it."

"Okay, then keep it. By the way, do you want to practice again or return? I think you are very close to the fourth level. Do you want to try the special universe light? I will arrange a distorted time and space for you. You Come out after practicing inside." Zhu Fengdan asked.

"I'm afraid not. If I am left to think alone, it will be difficult to continue to make breakthroughs. External influences and Taoist stimulation from the real world are necessary." Li Qi thought for a moment and shook his head.

For now, if he wants to truly break through the limit of the speed of light, he must always try to figure out the limit of the way of heaven. Distorting time and space will obviously change this kind of thing and have subtle effects.

This is one of the reasons why people generally don’t use distorted time and space to practice. It is really useless, and it will also affect the perception of the world. Distorted time and space not only adds more time, but also creates many more interfering factors. Practitioners who are only at the eighth level and below will have almost no impact.

But level 8 and below... To be honest, you don't need to use this kind of thing at all. This thing is not practical in the first place.

"Try it, not to experience the limit of heaven, but to experience different distorted time and space, you know that, right? Special cosmic light, gravitational distorted time and space, even the strange time and space inside Guixu, as well as backtracking, and immortal heaven Although the cosmic light in it can distort time, their essences are different, but they are all part of 'reality'. It will be good for you to experience it and settle it," Zhu Fengdan said.

Li Qi looked at Zhu Fengdan... How should I put it, the teacher seemed to want to sell him the special light?

"Did...the Witch God say something?" Li Qi suddenly asked.

He knew Zhu Fengdan's character very well. If nothing had happened, he would have run away and would not have talked to Li Qi that much. He was the kind of person who would buy Li Qi fifty yuan for lunch and then go out to play mahjong. A parent for a day.

All I can say is that fortunately Li Qi managed to live up to his expectations.

Therefore, Zhu Fengdan recommended this. In Li Qi's opinion, it was most likely not his choice, but what the Witch God said.

Zhu Fengdan did not hide it, but just smiled and said: "Yes, the Witch God said that you may be more suitable for the environment that distorts time and space than ordinary people. I think the reason may be because you are better at 'seeking inwards'."

Looking inward means bringing everything to oneself and getting answers from one's own reasoning, so Li Qi may be able to reap some benefits in the distorted time and space.

"Since the Witch God said so..." Li Qi hesitated for a moment, wanting to say something.

But Zhu Fengdan interrupted him at this time: "Stop, don't say anything like 'Witch God said so'. You have to make this decision yourself. I'm just telling you about the possibility. Don't change yourself because of the influence of the Witch God." decision.”

Zhu Fengdan stared at Li Qi seriously, wanting to see his choice.

"I think...it's okay, because I think that the difference between me and the fourth grade now is just the accumulation of time. I have enough understanding, and I think I am right." Li Qi thought for a moment and said. .

‘I think I am right’, this sentence means that Li Qi believes that on the road to breaking through to the fourth level, he does not need external support. He has already completed the part where he needs external help to provide ideas.

This is actually quite harsh, because walking on the road is like walking on a dark continent.

You can't see clearly what's in front of you. Is it a pit or a cliff? Is it a circuit break? Or going in circles? Before actually going out, the practitioner himself does not know.

If you want to see the darkness in front of you clearly, you must hang a lamp. The name of this lamp is 'thinking', and the lamp oil required for burning the lamp is 'knowledge'.

By using knowledge as firewood and burning it in the fire of thought, you can uncover the terrifying veil of the dark continent and barely see what the road ahead is.

Countless practitioners hang their own lamps, some big and small, and explore the dark continent. If you are on the same path and are walking the same path, the lamps of your teacher and others can help you illuminate a little more. range, or you can help them.

However, the light can only illuminate a little bit in front.

No one dares to say that they can clearly see the whole picture of this dark continent.

Everyone may make a wrong step.

Therefore, few people would choose to practice in the distorted time. That would be equivalent to removing the source of lamp oil, and they could only rely on the lamp oil reserves to walk slowly. Although they can walk faster, if they take a wrong step, they may fall. There is no way to go back on your word.

Therefore, when Li Qi said "I think I am right", he was saying that I had enough lamp oil, I had already seen where the fourth grade was, and I was definitely not wrong. Then I could start running and run to There is no need to worry or adjust the path until the fourth level.

This declaration made Zhu Fengdan stare at him twice.

Then Zhu Fengdan laughed loudly.

The youthful spirit that he had never cultivated before the Ninth Grade, he had never thought about it now, but he suddenly showed it.

This spirit, coupled with enough confidence, is a skyrocketing momentum.

Of course, it is also possible to fall due to overconfidence. This is also common. After all, who can guarantee that you will be right?

But this kind of spirit is enough to make Zhu Fengdan happy.

Sure enough, some things cannot be forced, and some things will appear unconsciously.

You can't find it even if you wear iron shoes, but it takes no effort to get it.

So Zhu Fengdan didn't say anything, just waved his hand.

Li Qi's body suddenly closed

Time dilation.

Now, for Li Qi, the time of the outside world has stagnated, and for the outside world, Li Qi's time has also stagnated.

They are in a state where they cannot interfere with each other and cannot communicate with each other.

This kind of special cosmic light is even enough to tear apart the ordinary fifth-grade people, completely destroying his sense of time. From now on, he can't tell the difference between the present, the past and the future.

But for Li Qi, this was something he could bear easily.

He just saw himself being sealed and locked in time dilation.

Li Qi took a deep breath.

So, let's get started.

He closed his eyes and began to use the answers he got to construct his own 'Tao'. Then through this 'Tao', he used the ability of the witch Tao to create something out of nothing, to create matter to match it, and truly achieve the characteristics of the fourth grade.

That is to say: Break through the constraints of other avenues. The limit of Heaven's Dao is the limit of Heaven's Dao, not my limit. My limit is only my own Dao.

This process is bound to be bumpy. Li Qi's thinking is still very messy. He needs to organize his knowledge into a book bit by bit, set up a good framework, and then fill in the content.

This is building your own way, a way that can replace this world, and you can't be careless at all.

From now on, any loopholes or paradoxes in what he builds will become his weaknesses in the future.

He has figured out the formula of the universe, and now he needs to create a formula of his own. This formula must be able to describe everything and explain the reason for the existence of everything.

This is the true formula of all things. At least it is Li Qi's formula of all things. It can explain everything known to Li Qi.

If this formula can work, then he can be promoted to the fourth level.

If a mistake is made, such as adding a 'cosmological constant' to make the formula valid, it will lead to cracks in the road.

If a paradox occurs, it will become a flaw that others will target in the future. This is a flaw in the entire path.

If the paradox is so big that the formula cannot be established, then the promotion will fail and you need to continue working hard.

A grand unified theory that describes the entire universe and can explain all conventional phenomena is what Li Qi wants to do.

Only this level of 'Tao' can create something out of nothing, create a parallel world that is close to reality, and based on this, gradually establish itself as a level 'equal to the real world'.

When you truly reach the point where you are equal to the real world, you are at the third level.

As for the second level and the first level, Li Qi cannot understand it yet, but he already has some of the characteristics of the third level. Manipulating cause and effect and determining reality are both characteristics of the third level, so he can now understand the third level.

The knowledge Li Qi has read in the past, everything he has witnessed, his thinking, experience, abilities, everything will be condensed into one at this moment, and he will summarize it into a 'Tao' that is unique to him.

This 'Tao' can describe everything in the world, and can summarize and explain everything that can be observed.

He has to do it, if he can't do it, he doesn't get promoted.

Fortunately... he has time and a chance to regret it.

This is not just one chance, he can do it again many, many times over many periods of time.

It's just that some things...can't be done all over again.

It's like a math problem that you need to solve.

You may not understand the questions, but this is better. If you can't do it, you can't do it. You can only study, improve yourself, and do it again in the future.

If you're barely good enough, you might solve it wrong, which is the worst, because it will leave a permanent hole.

Of course, the best thing is that you are good enough and can solve it smoothly.

But the question is... do you really know what you are right or wrong?

Right or wrong, I’m afraid I can only leave it to the future to explain.

But putting those things aside for the moment, Li Qi completely put aside these distracting thoughts and began to take it seriously, using the abundant time brought by distorted time to immerse himself in his own world.

The real 'own world' is a brand new world that is independent and parallel to the real world.

This is particularly difficult for Li Qi.

Because he's a stitch monster.

Although Wu Jin's Taoism itself can accommodate a lot of miscellaneous thoughts, coupled with the conjecture of the ultimate avenue of Taoism, and the monks who are one with Buddha and demon, they use subjective cognition to eliminate the idea of ​​​​discrimination, allowing him to unify and use it. These avenues, but in the final analysis, these orthodoxies are always in conflict.

Fundamentally, these orthodoxy are different, and the world they build is naturally in conflict.

It's like...one world is materialism, the other world is idealism.

In a materialistic world, matter is the primary nature, and matter determines consciousness.

In the world of idealism, consciousness is the primary nature, and consciousness determines matter.

Regardless of whether they are objective idealists or something else, they always conflict in their primary affiliation.

This is a moral struggle, a conflict that cannot be bridged, a dispute over the nature of the world, and a war that cannot be compromised.

When building a world, one must decide what the first nature is, and it is obvious that this is the difference between Taoism and magic.

The Taoist sect naturally recognizes the existence of the "ultimate road" and believes that "things are mixed together" and this world exists naturally. Practitioners only need to understand this world and finally reach the state of "freedom".

But the devil doesn’t think so. The devil denies the existence of the ultimate avenue. In the eyes of the devil, the material world and subjective cognition can go their separate ways.

Spiritual Tao is actually like this, but Spiritual Tao believes that there is no "subjective cognition", but there is another first cognition, first consciousness. To know this first consciousness is to know everything.

Li Qi wants to bridge this difference. He wants to define his own 'primacy', that is, how he thinks he exists.

This is the tone of everything.

This must be confirmed before proceeding.

But if this is confirmed... the Taoist struggle will break out immediately, and all the knowledge in Li Qi's body and all the knowledge he has accumulated will explode at this moment.

The time has come to resolve all moral disputes, and it is no longer possible for Li Qi to step on multiple boats.

He must understand, how is this world composed? (End of chapter)
