Enter the Immortal Cultivation

Because of the different life forms, there will always be differences between humans and sea gods. Many truths that humans understand naturally will be as difficult to understand as metaphysics for sea gods. And some simple concepts in the thinking of sea gods are as obscure as computer language for humans.

The simplest point is that the concept of time and space of humans follows Euclidean geometry, while sea gods are born with the perspective of Lobachevsky geometry.

Although these two geometries are equivalent to a certain extent, this is enough to cause huge communication difficulties.

In other aspects as well.

The most obvious one is "self-cognition". Although there are no obstacles for sea gods to communicate with humans now, at least it is difficult for humans to understand their views on the issue of "self-awareness".

At least Wang Qi thought so at first.

Therefore, he felt a little "nonsense" about Mi's behavior.

But when he thought about Sister Mi's question, he realized that he had never thought about "I".

——No, it was actually subconsciously avoiding thinking.

In the first years of his time traveling, he once thought that he was trapped in the experiment of the brain in a vat, and he was crazy about finding clues or evidence leading to the "truth".

And now, Wang Qi found that he seemed to have really fallen into the "brain in a vat". At this time, he didn't know how to prove that "I am me".

If "this me now" is the thinking of the brain created by Mi, then the memory of "this me" comes from the self-cognition of "Wang Qi". How should it be calculated?

At this time, Mi stood up.

Mi's appearance is no more than ten years old, and she is very petite. After standing up, she is only slightly taller than the sitting Wang Qi. However. Her calm expression and calm attitude made Wang Qi feel that she was the leader...

-Well, after all, Senior Sister is millions of years old...

Wang Qi thought almost subconsciously.

At this time, Mi stared at Wang Qi's face and said, "You are still restricted by your own 'narrowness'."

Wang Qi was stunned: "Narrow?"

"When I just finished this brain, I let my consciousness enter it." Mi said: "For me, it was really a terrible experience."

"You actually lost mental health because you tried the human way of thinking." Wang Qi exclaimed: "What does it feel like?"

"Narrow." Mi was sad: "It's terribly narrow, as if my mind is completely bound."

"Narrow? Bound?"

"There is a lake dug out for me under the Wanfa Gate. It should be big for you, right? But... my body once covered 50 million square kilometers. If I hadn't given up most of my body, I wouldn't even be able to enter there." Mi said: "If my body in its prime was to squeeze into that small pond, it would probably feel like that."

China's area is 9.6 million square kilometers. Asia. It is 44.6 million square kilometers. In Mi's prime, it was even larger than Eurasia. Even if the Wanfa Gate excavated an underground lake, it couldn't be bigger than this.

——Narrow, narrow, narrow.

——The whole mind is squeezing itself.

——Narrow, narrow, narrow.

——Want to get out.

Perhaps because the mind is too broad and strong, Wang Qi's thoughts about Mi appeared in his heart again.

The human brain is a shackle and a restraint for Mi's mind. She just injected part of her thoughts into it. She had the illusion of "unable to move".

"It's really a pity that our human brains are so small." Wang Qi shook his head: "So, your thoughts give me a completely opposite feeling."

Big, too big.

Wider than the sea, higher than the sky.

That is the heart of the sea god.

Wang Qi just peeked into a corner of it, and felt as if he was drowning in it.

"Do you understand? How narrow, small and ridiculous your self is in the eyes of my consciousness." Mi looked at Wang Qi. "So, I don't particularly understand your current entanglement. Even the 'gradual' approach of carefully maintaining the 'self' when you break through the realm is the same."

"Since you already understand that the answer to the proposition of 'I am me' is not fixed, but changes with the timing, why not break this 'I' from the beginning?"

"As long as your self can control the various effects brought about by the change of thinking organs from the beginning, then you can completely step through the three realms of the human world at a faster speed and touch the gate of the soul."

Wang Qi was shocked: "You are planning to..."

"Touch our realm, and you will know how your self limits you." Mi pursed his lips and smiled slightly: "Here, you will change your thinking organs in various forms. In this process, your narrow self will be shattered countless times. Until your consciousness knows how to control this change."

"For example, yesterday's various things died yesterday, and today's various things are born today?" Wang Qi felt that he was persuaded.

When most people hear Mi's proposal, the first reaction is definitely to refuse. Because most of them cannot accept Mi's approach of cutting into self-cognition.

However, Wang Qi was moved.

Because he had this idea from the beginning!

——There are always people who regard their bad habits as their personality, and their bad habits as their self. They obviously want to get rid of those bad habits, but when others persuade them, they always feel that their freedom is violated. This is clearly the manifestation of the mind being constrained by material conditions...

——The development of human character and the formation of personality are always disturbed by the material world. What you think of as "personality" is actually a collection of external infections. Don't you think that many people's bad habits are similar? My idea is to bring that kind of absolute freedom to everyone, so that everyone can completely dominate their personality according to their own ideas.

——I want everyone to have the freedom to dominate their own mind!

Wang Qi was ready to make a move on his self-consciousness from the beginning. He naturally wouldn't mind Mi's approach of crushing himself and then reshaping himself.

It's better to say that he still has a slight impulse to agree to Mi.

But now there is still one problem left.

"Sister, this me is just the 'Wang Qi' you imagined. If you let the 'Wang Qi' outside practice according to my experience, will it lead to this result - Wang Qi actually completed the practice according to Mi's fantasy?"

Mi looked helpless: "How can I tell you that I don't believe it... This is indeed you, and it is connected with the brain of you outside. It's just that your brain can't withstand six thousand times the consciousness time, so I made this brain."

"Believe me, because this is equally important to me. I also need your personality."

Wang Qi was surprised: "Why?"

"Aren't you surprised?" Mi He sighed: "We, who have no knowledge and views, are obviously the most suitable race to study the modern law. As a community, we have survived for more than a million years, far longer than the existence of the Immortal Alliance, but why is our civilization not as good as yours?"

"This..." Wang Qi thought for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know you, so I don't know."

"We can't complete the preconditions of the modern law." Mi sighed: "The mystery of the robbery god, the mystery of the sky, the mystery of the spirit... Why are these thoughts and the names of these cultivation methods named "mystery"? "

"Because they are a mystery, and can only be a mystery."

The emergence of science also requires preconditions. It is not a flash of inspiration from a genius or a genius, but a long-term accumulation of firewood, which is ignited by genius.

On Earth, the names of the "firewood" include ancient Greek philosophy, logic, medieval equations, and Renaissance thoughts.

In Shenzhou, the non-fate and heavenly will of the Mohist school, the Taoist school of learning from nature, and the learning of several schools are all the "charcoal fire" of the modern law.

Sea gods have no knowledge and views, they could have gone smoothly on the road ahead, but they got stuck on the previous step.

"Sea gods cannot have that kind of accumulation. Because no one can stick to their beliefs for a long time and form their own doctrines." Mi shook his head: "The people of the same race I know have overturned their beliefs and denied their own opinions; the doctrines I know will eventually be abandoned by the founders."

Wang Qi frowned: "Why?"

Mi pointed to his body: "Why do I have to become a human child?"

"I heard that it's because... your personality is close to that of a child, and you are always in the period of personality formation..." Wang Qi vaguely remembered that Mi had talked about this issue. But soon, he was surprised: "No way..."

"This is our shortcoming. Instability." Mi's tone was very calm, as if he was not talking about his own race: "It is difficult for us to stick to a doctrine for too long. Perhaps one day, a whim will allow us to abandon our past thoughts and even meet our past comrades in life and death."

"We can't make a theory. Accompanying us is only increasingly clever and increasingly difficult to refute logic, but no empirical evidence..."

Wang Qi asked: "Have you ever thought about improving this situation?"

"I thought about it. Then, most of the sea gods who held this idea died." Mi's expression was finally covered with a Wipe Sadness: "We can't fix our bodies. Fixation means that the body loses its community, which means death."

"When a sea god feels that his ideas are unparalleled, he is heading for death. The individuals in his body will condense into blocks, become rocks, sink to the bottom of the sea, lose vitality, and eventually become a fossil on the rocky core of the planet."

"Under your feet, any stone is deposited with the thoughts of those who have passed away."

"What you said just now is very right. Freedom is dancing with shackles. Its true meaning is not to do whatever you want, but to not do what you don't want. Now, it's time for me to find a pair of shackles for myself." (To be continued ~^~)
