Chapter 906 Space
What does it feel like to see...?
Laqi tried to describe this feeling to himself in his heart.
In fact, it can still be described as "touch".
If you think about it carefully, the so-called "vision" is essentially a body folded into a special shape, receiving collisions from the outside world, but this collision is relatively weak, and it is the image formed by the continuous impact of photons on the retina. The retina and photons are in direct contact.
The essence of visual cells is proteins and nerve cells folded into special shapes by grinding, and then constantly receiving the impact of photons, resulting in deformation, and then the appearance of understandable electrical signals.
Then, in fact, in essence, this is also a kind of touch, and there is no difference from the mutual folding and collision of his own body as a manifold.
The eyes are very sensitive, so sensitive that they can feel the subtle collisions of photons, analyze the different wavelengths of photons, and turn them into "vision". In fact, there is no difference from touch, they are all "membranes" colliding with each other.
However, this is a little troublesome for Laqi.
For humans, analyzing this kind of collision is completely instinctive. There is no need to learn anything, and there is no need to use the brain to understand how to control heartbeat and breathing. These functions are preset and innate.
There is no need to know the principles of balance movement and pronunciation, which are hardware functions that come with the machine. There is no need to learn memory ability, which is a built-in algorithm. Even many visual space perception abilities are ready-made natural software in the brain.
As early as countless years of evolution, such learning and software and hardware iteration accumulation have been completed. In this way, life can achieve inheritance evolution with a limited lifespan.
Genes solve all the problems of knowledge explosion, so everyone does not need to learn balance like Laqi to control the body, and learn to perceive the impact of light to distinguish things. If you really want to learn... this is definitely more difficult than you think.
Fortunately, Laqi is a manifold clan, and the manifold clan is born with super powerful information processing capabilities, and he is already a seventh-grade.
In just a few minutes, he has quickly learned this special sense of touch. Anyway, this is just another tactile algorithm.
After a few minutes, he was familiar with all the folding information of various parts of the body, and clearly understood how each cell folded, how it worked, what form it was, how it folded out its properties, and how it should be used. He could clearly perceive and learn all of them.
Then, he opened his eyes and looked at the 'shadow' in front of him.
No, it's called 'Li Qi', right?
"... What's going on? What's your purpose?" Laqi staggered two steps, but he quickly adapted to a world with gravity and entities.
Li Qi looked at Laqi, who was gradually changing from a folded high-dimensional membrane to a human form, and then pointed behind him: "Look at that."
Laqi cast his eyes over there.
Then, he saw... the high-energy and low-energy areas.
That was where he came from.
So, did he live in that kind of place?
Are the so-called high-energy and low-energy levels the manifestation of 'yin and yang'?
Yin and Yang, the sun and the moon, and the ‘Chenji’, where all dimensions surround, the absolute center is the top of the ‘Mexican hat’, and it is also the birthplace of the manifold race.
There, the dimension is bent, and turbulence occasionally occurs in the rapids of the dimensional river.
So, there are intelligent life forms that drill out of the turbulence, and most of them will be terrified at the moment of escaping, and then fall back into the dreamlike big whole.
But there are still some that can escape, just like the virtual particle pairs escaping from the edge of the black hole, escaping from the event horizon and turning into Hawking radiation.
Therefore, many slender beings are slowly sliding across the expanding chest of time and space.
So this is how my race and world appeared.
Laqi watched all this, and then looked at Li Qi.
"So... they are my creators, then, what about you?" Laqi looked at Li Qi and asked.
"Me? Uh, I'm a passerby, but if you have to talk about the relationship, I'm the husband of your Creator, oh, half husband, the other half brother-in-law, of course, I know you don't know what these mean yet."
"Here is a book, you can take a look and learn the knowledge in it, so that you can communicate with me well." Li Qi handed the other party a book made purely of book energy.
The Manifold Tribe has no concept of husband, they don't even have a family form, reproduction also relies on group resonance, and there is no gender, so these need to let Laqi read books to learn.
"Why did you choose me to leave there?" Laqi asked.
"You have talent, a talent different from other Manifold Tribes, I admire you very much, you are a genius." Li Qi said: "Moreover, I found that your processing ability even surpassed me when I was young."
As he said, Li Qi gently pushed: "Read first, and when you finish reading, we will talk about the rest."
Laqi was pushed aside.
He glanced around again, so he chose to sit down and start reading.
Li Qi also continued to immerse himself in the world created by the Wutu sisters. He was feeling the evolution of these worlds because he discovered that this was the "follow-up" of the Wutu sisters.
Yang Ning... is about to reach the fourth level.
Shen Shuibi seemed to be able to realize a newer level through this. The secret of Chenji Jindan method seemed to be emerging, and Li Qi was also paying close attention.
"I seem to understand. My existence can help you understand that kind of thing, right?" Laqi said.
Li Qi had pushed him aside and was ready to do his own thing, but Laqi's words attracted Li Qi's attention again.
"Can you understand it?" Li Qi separated a Dharma body and said.
"You said that I have talent, don't you? Then it seems that you have the intention to cultivate me, and I am valuable to you, so... what can I do to attract your attention?" Laqi asked cautiously.
He has already felt the greatness of the 'shadow' in front of him.
Only then did Laqi realize that he had actually been living with a huge existence that could not be seen in its entire body, and coexisting with him in a world full of fog.
These giants passed over the top of the Manifold Clan, ruling everything invisibly, but they were too big, so people only felt the huge wind brought by it when it passed, but could not really know why the huge wind was caused.
The barrier of information is fog, but even without this fog, when it stands in front of you, you can only see the fur on its toes, and you still can't understand what it looks like.
It is not an exaggeration to call the other party a tyrant who dominates reality.
Although the other party looks very kind, his mere existence is enough to bear the title of tyrant. He does not need to do anything brutal, because his existence is violence against everything.
His existence is insulting "reality", insulting other creatures, and laughing at their nothingness. He uses his own stability to show the nothingness of other creatures vividly.
In front of him, everything will doubt itself.
This is a more terrible violence than killing, which is at least equal.
If the essence of killing is the destruction of one thing by another.
Then, Li Qi's existence is the evidence of destroying all things. He does not need to do it, because of his reality, all things naturally have no meaning of existence.
Therefore, Li Qi's existence is essentially equivalent to destroying everything. He proves that everything is meaningless, including the existence of Laqi.
What kind of killing can compare to this?
He didn't need to do anything, nor did he need to show his arrogance. He just existed, and everything lost its value of survival, and he didn't even raise his eyes.
So, Laqi used the title of "Lord of Creation".
But this idea surprised Li Qi again.
"You... didn't collapse?" Li Qi asked.
"Why should I collapse?" Laqi was puzzled.
"Normally, even some fifth-grade... oh, you just understand it as people who are many times stronger than you. Even people who are much stronger than you will collapse after recognizing this."
Li Qi asked: "Moreover, they can't even recognize this. Tell me, how did you know my power?"
"Intuition? When you dragged me out of there, I felt this way. I could feel that my existence was quite thin. In your hands, it seemed that even information and memory were swaying. As long as you gently shook my hand, I would no longer be myself." Laqi replied.
It was really a terrifying experience. Laqi didn't know why he didn't collapse. Maybe he was more generous.
Imagine a human being suddenly discovers one day that…
The performance is over, the actors take off their makeup, and the stage is dismantled—human history ends here.
Then, will he go crazy?
Will he have great doubts about the world he has been living in, so that his worldview and outlook on life will completely collapse and disappear?
This is the ‘collapse of the Dao heart’.
If it is a mortal, the collapse of the Dao heart is nothing more than continuous fatigue, loss of all motivation, and finally wanting to commit suicide.
But if it is a practitioner, they have a lot of Qi running in their bodies, which used to be regulated by the Dao heart. If the Dao heart collapses, these Qi will go out of control and then implode.
Of course, you can also directly become a demon and control everything with the demon heart.
But Laqi didn't choose either.
He said: "As for why it doesn't collapse... I think there is nothing to collapse about. Since it has happened and exists, just accept it. All this is not more difficult to accept than what was given to me at the beginning."
Laqi believes that all this is not more difficult to accept than what was given to him at the beginning. He has experienced it once.
This answer made Li Qi very satisfied.
At the beginning, Li Qi gave Laqi the information on his palm, which was part of the physical signs from the third level, and was the manifestation of Tao rhyme.
These Tao rhymes were completely inconsistent with all of Laqi's cognition. If he wanted to accept them, he had to give up everything he knew from the Manifold Clan.
Generally speaking, for mortals, this meaningless behavior would make them give up quickly, or indulge in it and mess themselves up.
Researching some meaningless things will not have any beneficial effects, and a formula that can change the world may not necessarily allow you to have a meal.
Moreover, these formulas can't change the world at all, because they are different from the basic operating logic of the world where the Manifold Clan is located. What Laqi has studied for a lifetime is actually some "settings" that do not exist in this world.
That is Li Qi's own setting set, which has nothing to do with the Manifold Clan. No matter how much research is done, it is useless. You can only sigh in the exquisite settings, and then it's over.
It is impossible for anything to be applied in reality, and it is impossible for anything to appear in reality.
He studies the knowledge of the alien world, which is completely different from the beginning, subverting all common sense and shattering all common cognition. If you don't shatter the original worldview, it is impossible to study it.
Therefore, in the eyes of any manifold, Laqi is a madman, a weirdo, just like a madman who has been brainwashed by Cthulhu knowledge and turned into a cultist.
No, it's not "as if", he is at all.
Li Qi is no different from the Outer God to him.
But he is still precise, with an extraordinary intuition and persistence, and finally waited for Li Qi to promote him.
So, at this moment, Li Qi said to him: "Very good answer, you have an intuition beyond imagination, and you have the tenacity to accept the subversion of the world's cognition, and you even have the ability to process information flow."
"I originally wanted to test you, but now I think there is no need for the follow-up."
"Lachi, do you want to be my disciple?"
Lachi asked puzzledly: "What is a disciple?"
"Nothing, you read the book first, and when you finish reading all this, you will understand, and then I will communicate with you again, and there will be no need to explain so much." Li Qi smiled, and then the Dharma body dissipated.
Lachi understood, so he started reading the book, he knew that he needed to make up for the knowledge of this world.
On the other side, the Wutu sisters were still carrying out their own fusion.
Li Qi looked at everything. The secret of Chenji Jindan Method was a first-class opportunity. The things contained in it could definitely benefit Li Qi. Strictly speaking, he was stealing the teacher.
But it was the rabbit that was stolen, so neither of them cared much.
There, their powers were completely intertwined, and between the rotation of yin and yang, the essence of time and space was also revealed.
That is, what is the most...basic unit that constitutes the current material universe? The answer is: matter can be divided "infinitely", and the result is that matter becomes smaller and smaller, but it will never be equal to zero. In the case of "infinite" division of matter, the only quantity that does not disappear is space.
This made Li Qisheng wonder.
Could it be that... the essence of matter is space, and space is matter?
This seems very likely.
