Chapter 923 The Endless Past!
The other party admitted Li Qi's story very frankly.
But Li Qi was a little confused in his heart.
Even if the other party admitted it, Yuzao was a man-made person made by the Miscellaneous Family based on the prototype of the third grade.
No... can it really be done?
Is Yuzao really a man-made person based on the prototype of the third grade?
Isn't it said that the Dao rhyme of the third grade will have copyright? If it is made based on this prototype, the will of the third grade will be awakened in Yuzao's body? This is essentially equivalent to the third grade creating a Dharma body, which is really meaningless.
But it is obvious that Yuzao is more than that.
Yuzao is not the Dharma body of the third grade, Li Qi can confirm this.
So, what is the situation with Yuzao?
As a man-made person, she is obviously related to the third grade in front of her, but this relationship is so subtle that although she has obtained something similar to "blessing" and her talent is also very outrageous, she has not become the Dharma body of the third grade.
If this kind of man-made person can be mass-produced, then the mortal battlefield really does not need to waste time for humanity.
The most important role of the mortal battlefield is to contain the high-quality ones, and the mortal battlefield is also necessary for incubating high-quality ones. There are many people who break through anytime and anywhere during the war.
Moreover, for the existence of high-quality ones, "higher wisdom" itself is also valuable.
A person who can think, has a unique worldview, and can conduct self-cognition and objective cognition is the greatest wealth of the universe itself.
Material resources are actually not that important. On the contrary, those mortals who have experienced various different things are the most valuable.
If you give up the mortal battlefield, it is equivalent to giving up the foundation of all Taoism.
Resources can be shaped at will, but the complex rational structure network formed by the diversity, communication and collision of countless worlds, those things called: wisdom, soul, rationality, spirit, mind, etc., cannot be shaped.
Even if it is shaped, it can only shape the existing mind, just like cloning memory, but cannot shape the unknown mind.
Even the known mind is difficult to shape, because after you create a mind, you can't control how this mind thinks and how it thinks.
If you control it by brainwashing forcefully, then... is this mind still a mind? This has become the thinking of the powerful, not an unknown existence.
Just like the demon, the demon believes that all "minds" are essentially extensions of the demon's own mind. There is no "other people's mind" at all, only oneself.
In Li Qi's view, this is because he likes to tamper with other people's minds too much, so that he turns "other people's minds" into "his own mind", and finally gets only a puppet.
What is the point of the powerful to distort the thoughts of the mortals themselves? Of course, they can easily distort or even destroy the will of mortals, but this is like a meat doll that can't move by itself, which has no interest. It becomes a doll that you fiddle with, not the doll itself.
Therefore, the high-quality beings are actually very clear about what kind of treasures are hidden in the spirits of those mortals.
High wisdom is the most common existence in this universe, but it is also the most precious wealth of the universe.
You must know that in the eyes of the Tathagata, that is, the Buddha, it is "all sentient beings are Buddhas, and enlightenment can see the Tathagata in the heart."
The Buddhist sect directly believes that everyone has the same wisdom as the Tathagata, but they just need to "attain" "enlightenment", and they are blinded by wisdom.
As long as they can get rid of their original ignorance through practice, let them see their true nature and see the Tathagata in their hearts, then all sentient beings are Buddhas.
This is the great cause of "Tathagata awakening the world".
The Tathagata is like this, and other sects also have their own views.
Li Qi absolutely does not believe that the human world will give up mortals and then do something like creating artificial people to replace the spirit of mortals.
But if it is not explained this way... how to explain it?
Li Qi does not know, the clues are not enough now.
Then, continue to fight.
The battle continues, but... the opponent seems to have found a breakthrough.
Four days ago, at 2 o'clock in the morning, Li Qi had a "choice".
So, this human world chose to interfere with this "choice".
——————————
The third-rank human world four days ago had just received a task instruction from the cardinals of all realms, asking her to choose her own mission location.
At this moment, a force from the void fell on her.
Almost instantly, the information from the ‘future’ was received by her.
She responded immediately.
So, what happened four days ago suddenly changed. The third-rank human being who was sitting obediently at that time chose to attack from a distance.
Her target was Li Qi four days ago.
The past four days ago was interfered with. Now, four days ago, when Li Qi was about to leave, a sudden attack came and rushed towards Li Qi.
The next moment, the ‘now’ four days later, just before the fourth-rank human being made a move, a force emerged and broke through the opponent’s defense.
That was Li Qi’s interference with the opponent.
So, the interference that went back four days before was invalid.
This was a battle that was difficult to understand.
The opponent wanted to interfere with Li Qi’s decision four days ago, because at that time, Li Qi was about to leave. She tried to interfere with what happened four days ago and let Li Qi choose ‘don’t come here’.
But before she made her move, Li Qi's attack had already arrived. Li Qi four days later, against Li Qi four days later, only attacked before the third level of humanity.
Before the other party interfered with Li Qi four days ago, Li Qi interfered with the other party's action in advance, which resulted in the cancellation of all the "events" after the other party's attack.
But the next moment, the other party attacked again, and this time she wanted to interfere with the moment before Li Qi interfered with her.
Four days ago, in the time of mortals, Li Qi had not been hit.
Because he had no experience of being hit, he only had the memory of being hit, but in fact that thing had not happened yet.
So this is why Li Qi launched an attack randomly.
This war involving time and space, if he could hit the person who tried to attack him before being hit, the matter would be resolved.
That person should be in his future direction, so just attack in the future direction.
Just send the magic in the future direction, it will hit, and prevent what happened in the past.
Their power is constantly shuttling between the past and the future.
But in fact, all these battles took place in the ‘now’, but it was the ‘now’ of the basic unit of the three-grade. What ordinary people could see was only the reality that was constantly being modified.
However, Li Qi was generally in a passive state of being beaten, and could only defend himself, because his ‘Tao’ did not allow him to interfere with the past in a complicated and fancy way.
Those were also real.
He could only interfere with his own affairs, but could not trace back to others.
However, correspondingly, he also gained a strong resistance to such interference. Since those were things that had happened, they should not be changed, so Li Qi could make many ‘late-starting and early-arriving’ operations.
Layer by layer of interference, the past and the future were constantly transformed in the present.
They shot at the past, and the bullets flew to the future, and finally hit the current opponent.
Soon, this interference changed from attack to a more secretive action.
For example, if the matter of taking keys when going out was interfered with, the opponent’s actions would be reduced by several options. Because they forgot to bring the keys, they could not go home. If they could not go home, their actions would be forced to change.
Interfering with this kind of thing is very simple, and it does not require any complicated means. Just make a hole in the other party's key chain and let the key be lost while walking.
Through this more secretive interference, the incident becomes confusing.
There are always some "key points" in the incident.
It is like whether you get into college or not. This is the key point of a person.
Commonly known as the "crossroads of life".
If you pass the exam, the ending will lead to one direction.
If you fail the exam, the ending will lead to another direction.
This kind of crossroads may not always be so obvious. Sometimes you may pass by a homeless person. Are you willing to lend a hand? Or there is a pile of garbage on the ground. Are you willing to pick it up?
The homeless person will actually become your benefactor in the future. Picking up garbage will cause you to be infected with herpes and make you lose your handsome face.
This choice will bring changes in the future.
Then, change this key node, for example... drive away the homeless person, or for example, blow a gust of wind to blow away the garbage and keep you away from the virus.
This kind of node is secret and difficult to know. If you are not particularly familiar with it, it will be difficult to find it.
But for the third rank, you can try.
The past was constantly retried.
Before the nineteenth universe restart -
When Li Qi set up the stage to try the grand sacrifice in Guangyang, a quiet demonic wind blew.
Li Qi, who was only a ninth rank cultivator, was on the altar and glanced down. Rabbit and Le Ya, the protector of Boyue at that time, were there.
The demonic wind stopped silently.
Everything was the same as before, and the Guangyang Grand Sacrifice was held as scheduled.
However, the power of Zhu Fengdan appeared quietly for a moment, but did not interfere.
Then, it was when Li Qi met the young dragon soul.
When Li Qi went to Chang'an.
However, during the time when Li Qi was inside Wushen Mountain, he did not interfere. Obviously, he would be beaten if he went in.
After the seventh rank Li Qi arrived in Chang'an, there were obviously more people interfering.
Li Qi could feel that the local existence in Chang'an began to take more actions.
However, Li Qi felt the help.
That day, not long after Li Qi arrived in Chang'an, the four young masters sat together. After the great witch Mi Xin went out, he came back with blood on his clothes (see Chapter 262 for details)
When the great witch Mi Xin walked into the room where the four young masters were, his clothes were bloody, and the young masters all looked up.
"Hush..." The great witch Mi Xin gently made a mouth shape that no one except Li Qi could see.
Li Qi nodded and thanked him.
With the help of the great witch Mi Xin, Li Qi survived this period in Chang'an.
Li Qi who studied witchcraft silkworms.
Li Qi who studied earth dragons.
Li Qi who was about to break through the sixth rank.
However, just when the human way was about to continue to work hard...
The opportunity for Li Qi to break through the seventh rank, at that moment, the power from the demon descended.
Many third-rank people of the human way chose to retreat. At the same time, the human way master also descended at that time, and the event of "the demon and the master confronted each other" occurred (see Chapter 330 for details)
"Tsk..." Li Qi was shocked.
The event continued to move forward.
The past and the future were mixed in the present.
This was Li Qi’s first time engaging in a retrospective battle, and it was really...interesting.
In this kind of war, all the existences above the third rank that are linked together by cause and effect are all intertwined.
Every first, second, and third rank that has appeared will realize the emergence of power at this time, and it depends on whether they are willing to take action at that time.
Countless forces are intertwined, and countless possibilities are mixed in it.
Fortunately, Li Qi is relatively "stable". Although his path cannot change these, it also makes himself more difficult to be changed, so the result is not bad.
Such a battle is still going on.
The circle of time and space in the "present" has also begun to change due to the butterfly effect.
However, other third-rank powers appeared in the void.
They collided and offset, and the "possibility" that Li Qi and the third-rank of humanity diffused was dispelled, so that the butterfly effect would not affect their war zone, nor would it affect their "present".
But where there is no third-rank shelter, the butterfly effect began to appear, and the collision between Li Qi and the third-rank of humanity in the "past" had an impact on the present.
Unknown influences began to appear.
Some people suddenly disappeared, and some people suddenly appeared.
The world line was changed, and the possibilities changed as a result.
In front of the third rank, all living beings seemed particularly illusory.
There is only one way to maintain oneself in the face of such a ‘collision’, and that is to have ‘reality’.
In such battles, time and again, those lives without reality were affected, some were wiped out, and some were born out of thin air.
Others were taken away by Li Qi because their existence would become a ‘key node’.
Take them away quickly, don’t stay here and become a flaw.
So, these people will become the former Li Qi.
In the beginning, when Li Qi was in the fifth rank, as a war zone commander, he had become such a ‘key node’, which led to his recall by Wushen Mountain. (See Chapter 631 for details)
Now, Li Qi did the same thing. He ordered the commanders of these war zones to leave with the authority of the third rank to avoid the bad consequences they would cause in the ‘future’.
The battle continued.
As the cause and effect gradually increased, the amount of calculation began to increase geometrically.
Who can know more about the other party, who can explore more secrets, who can find more key nodes, who can control more nodes, who can change the past, and finally lead the "present" to victory.
The battle continues to spread in this form.
Invade the past, change the present, and distort the future.
There is no past, no future, only the present.
Only this battle itself seems to be endless.
The order of time and space is broken, and only events exist in the universe, no longer related to each other.
