Chapter 261
This is a city, a real city, about the size of a large town.
On the order of Ancient One mage, waiting for two people here is one of the cultivation mages here. He introduced himself as "Wang", a typical Chinese name.
"Kamar-Taj was originally the birthplace of Ancient One Master. It used to be an ordinary town... But after the Master mastered the extraordinary power, it became the Holy Land of magic. Of course, as far as the Master is concerned, she is proficient in almost all the extraordinary powers in this world, whether it is voodoo or obscure Taoism, she can’t be bothered."
The king is very talkative. People, he is like a conscientious tour guide, taking Cyber and Strange through a long, quaint tunnel. The chandeliers on both sides add a mysterious color to the stone tunnel, accompanying them. Moving forward, the lights seemed to flicker.
"I heard that Kamar-Taj will receive many terminally ill patients?"
Cyber's looked outside the tunnel window, where he could see clearly When it came to the bright weather that was completely different from Snow Mountain outside, Wang was shocked by his problem. This seems to be difficult to touch, but actually a very good-tempered mage explained,
"Yes. , But Kamar-Taj will only accept those who are recognized by it. There is also an ordinary person as you said, and not only terminally ill people can enter it, some people who are looked at by the Supreme Master can also enter Kamar-Taj, but. .. There is only one chance in a lifetime, and the number of them is actually not much, and they cannot be close to the mage tower where the Supreme mage is."
"What about the standard? What is the standard?"
Staying in the warm tunnel, Strange little by little regained his ability to move. He picked up a wooden stick from the ground to support his body. His expression was already a bit tired. He looked at the silhouette of the leading person in front of him. Asked in a low voice,
"Ancient One Master told me that to enter Kamar-Taj, you must believe in the existence of the soul..."
"No, it's just a Basic conditions."
Wang’s small eyes narrowed. As he walked, he said, “Not all terminally ill patients are worth saving. The meaning of life is complicated, especially for those of us who are far away from Mortal. For the people of World, the Master believes that only those who have not given up hope in the most terrifying desperate situation are worth the second chance of salvation."
"If you give up all by yourself , What obligation do we have to save you?"
Nodded, which Cyber agrees with, he said,
"Only those who save themselves can be saved, Ancient One The concept is correct."
These words made Wang glared. Every mage in Kamar-Taj, whether formal or apprentice, has a kind of believer-like following to the Supreme mage Ancient One. , Mordo will fight against the Ancient One mage because Cyber does not respect him enough, in fact, the king is almost the same.
But Cyber didn’t care about Wang’s gaze at all. He carried the wooden box on his back and walked comfortably in the tunnel. On both sides were hooded men with penitent temperament, and there were almost densely packed forks in the road. , This is an ancient mage tower. For hundreds of years, no one knew how many secrets existed here. Until 10 minutes later, Wang stood in front of a door engraved with mysterious rune and waved his hand.
"Go, Supreme Master has been waiting for you for a long time."
Cyber pushed open the door and saw two people with their backs facing each other, standing with 1,000 candles lit In front of the meditation table, with his hands hanging down beside him, hundreds of thousands of runes filled the entire room. It seemed that because of her existence, it was filled with solemn and sacred feelings.
But...seriously, how awkward that bald head really looks!
"It was later than I thought..."
The Ancient One wizard turned around, holding a book with a metal cover in his hand, on both sides There are also delicate chains, and on the surface of the book, there is a huge eyeball, in which a certain kind of special rays of light shines. When the finger of Ancient One crosses the eyeball, the rays of light look like Like debris, shining in the room.
"Strange is just an ordinary person, so Cyber, what about you? Did something happen on the road?"
Cyber shrugged,
"I met a very Fun guy, I also heard some secrets, um, very rewarding."
Ancient One's straight gaze swept through Cyber's eyes, and then quickly moved away, she said softly,
"So, it's SWORD, isn't it?...Also, their immense power is beyond your imagination, cherish this opportunity."
Cyber's expression changed slightly, but very Almost calming down, Strange has been silent all the time. It seems that this trip to Snow Mountain has had a great impact on the former neurologist.
"Since you are here, let me introduce you to this world. Everyone who enters Kamar-Taj will experience this moment."
Ancient One Waved with the wide cuffs, the scene of the entire room suddenly changed, as if the reality was distorted, placing the three people in the endless and deep starry sky, Cyber looked at the surrounding starlight surging, with his current eyes , I still can’t see the surrounding images true or false.
"Meditation!"
Ancient One's voice rang in the ears of two people, like a kind of yoga order, Strange's tired spirit immediately concentrated, and Cyber I felt the power that permeated my body, but was not affected.
It wasn't until Ancient One glanced at him that Cyber hurriedly shook the head, and set her gaze on the Supreme mage holding the book book. She let go of her left hand, and the book was affected by an invisible force. Supported in the air, turned several pages out of thin air.
"Pa"
A gray sandalwood fan appeared in Ancient One's hand. The Supreme Master tapped the book lightly with it, and then said,
"This world's complex power system and story vast as the open sea, of course, and what you care most...how to heal your body, I will tell you this problem later."
"this world...ordinary person calls it Earth. In Nordic mythology, it is called Midgard. In Greek mythology, it is believed to be a big orb carried by Atlas, the Titan giant. The gods of Heavenly Mountain think that Earth is their pasture. In Chinese mythology, Earth was bred from chaos, and the people of the dead zone regard Earth as a disgusting eternal light ball in the dark."
The fan in Ancient One's hand traverses a trajectory in the air. The blue rays of light form a model of Earth behind her, rotating slowly in the starry sky.
"In the material world, it is At present, civilization has explored only one planet with life, but before the emergence of existing civilization, there are more and more unimaginable forms of civilization in this world... So the Ancient Desolate Era described in human civilization is actually not It's not a desolate world. On the contrary, the world at that time was more lively than it is now."
Her gaze swept across Strange's eyes, adding to her tone,
"So you. .. Including me, it’s actually just one of the tens of millions of beings in this world. Don’t try to explain all of this with science, because your science is still in its infancy and you cannot complete a self-consistent and self-explaining big data. Model, so, at this moment beyond your world view, you just need to listen, and then write it down...understand?"
"The nature of this world is more complicated than you can imagine! "
The Supreme Master’s finger tapped on the blue Earth model, and seven spheres with different colors appeared outside the model.
"Dimension, this is A magic concept, you can understand it as another space entangled in the material world. There are countless planets of life in the universe, but none of them can be comparable to Earth in terms of dimensional complexity, precisely because In this way, Earth appears to be more peculiar and splendid...the dimension of current detection, a t least has 7! "
A smile appeared on Ancient One's face,
"So let's go back to the question just now, is the description of Earth in the myth really wrong? "
Cyber whispered,
"Do you mean...Do they describe Earth from all dimensions?" "
"Well, although it is not very accurate, it is true. "
Ancient One nodded, she saw Strange, who was already confused, "From different dimensions, Earth does present a different landscape, so I think that apart from the Greek group of self Apart from the big war Beast, other mythological descriptions are not wrong...Of course, remember the word dimension, it is very important. "
"The power of this world is complex, Cyber, you should know, and you have also seen, Mutant, magic, witchcraft, divine technique, and the power of technology that has risen in recent years..."
Ancient One’s body was suspended in the air, and he turned the book in front of him in a stance of sitting cross-legged.
"And myself, the cultivation is the soul and the Power of Time, one of the most original abilities of mankind and the universe, Power of Time cannot be changed, so you need to focus more on the cultivation of the soul. I really cannot heal your body directly, but if it can strengthen your soul, you can "convince" Your body can realize self-recover completely under a higher level system. "
"Of course, Cyber, your situation is special..."
Ancient One's mouth has a meaningful smile,
"Let’s learn It will be very slow and very laborious. I hope you are prepared and your soul cannot exist without the body, which means that you will always be unable to urge the power of the soul to attack your opponent. "
Supreme mage shrugged,
"But in my opinion, this is actually a good thing. Your use of power has gone too far...you should learn Control it instead of letting it destroy everything that is hostile to you. "
"But I don't think I have a problem like this. "
Cyber tilted his head and looked at the Supreme Mage. He respects this Venerable power, but he lacks respect for the Supreme Mage himself.
"I don’t think It is a shame to destroy the opponent with my own power. On the contrary, I only think that this is the meaning of power. I can use it to protect my friends and relatives, and protect the things I value... if you have A really good knife, would you not use it to kill people, but you want to put it in the display room for others to admire? "
"Crisis! "
The Supreme Master waved his hand, "I am not opposed to using strength to protect yourself in times of crisis, but after all, the calmer this world is, the better. I will only give you advice. It is you who accept it. Things...Cyber, I hope you can recognize one thing. There is no right or wrong with power, just like a knife has no good and evil... I don’t want to see you whose mind is controlled by power... Do you understand? "
Cyber nodded, he glanced at Ancient One and jokingly said, "Is this a warning? "
Ancient One looked at him with a gentle smile on his face,
"No, this is a reminder, but you can also listen to it as a warning. Words that will make you remember more deeply. "
"There is no hope at all in the stagnant world...but. "
Cyber lowered his head and hid his gaze, "I remember... Supreme Master, I still want to know, how long do I need to stay here?" "
Ancient One held the fan's fingers and paused, then turned the pages of the book a few more pages. With a wave of her hand, a map depicting the human body appeared in the air.
"Everyone has a soul, the body is the basis of material existence, and Soul Power is the original symbol of life existence. The body exists to carry the soul, just like the relationship between the river and the river water, but the river will always volatilize, and the river will also There will be Oblivion, and the water will no longer exist after it dries. This is why ordinary persons will have birth, aging, sickness and death, but if we continue to inject more river water, the rivers will eventually converge into lakes and even oceans. "
"This is the essence of Soul Power... Either evolves or dies, and there is never an intermediate amount"
Ancient One glanced at two people,
"Just like you, the riverbed is showing signs of collapse. Either let the water flow and dry up, or take this opportunity to become a lake in one fell swoop, build a stronger carrier, and complete this natural evolution of the soul. "
Ancient One's voice is getting lighter,
"Then the shackles of the breakthrough Creations Lord, truly enter the life form of pursuing endless truth...this is the true evolution of living things...so If you have to ask for the exact time, I will say...until the day you fully recover! "
She glanced at Cyber and closed her eyes, "If nothing happens, it will be a day that is neither far away nor imminent...like I said, it’s for you In fact, staying away from disputes is actually a good thing. "
