Emperor Yutianwu

"Hiss!"

Chu Yan took a breath of cold air, and his heart was shaken.

Because the impact of this moment was too great.

Even subversive.

Chu Yan always boasted that he knew the Dao well enough, because he took many detours, so he went through countless trials and errors before he figured out the current system.

So, he always thought that he had seen through the essence of heaven and earth and the Dao.

But until this moment, he found that he might be wrong.

Wrong is very outrageous.

Not right, he is not wrong.

It's just that he ignored a very important point.

There may be a problem in his practice from the beginning.

He has been moving forward, but he ignored the back.

This is just like the old Taoist's previous practice in adversity.

The old Taoist, including the Lord of Humanity, the Emperor, the Four Emperors and all the people in the Nine Realms.

No, except for the Lord of the Imperial Dao, all the people Chu Yan knows at present are not proficient enough in practice, and their foundation is not solid enough.

This time, the old Taoist practiced in adversity to make up for some of the points that he had overlooked.

But is the Three Dust Realm really the beginning of cultivation?

Chu Yan narrowed his eyes and thought of a possibility: "Perhaps, the Three Dusts are not the beginning of cultivation."

The old Taoist was stunned: "What did you say?"

The Lord of the Imperial Dao looked at Chu Yan meaningfully and smiled: "Have you noticed it, young friend?"

Chu Yan nodded, took a deep breath, and said to the old Taoist: "We were actually wrong from the beginning. Not right, but not wrong, but we overlooked one thing."

"What?"

"The Three Dust Realm is just the beginning of cultivation in the macroscopic world, but it may not be the real place where the Dao begins." Chu Yan said.

The old Taoist was stunned, thought for a while and said: "You mean, there is actually another realm under the Three Dust Realm? A weaker realm?"

Chu Yan nodded: "Yes, that's almost what I mean."

The old Taoist was speechless: "But what's the use of this? It's useless. People are pursuing higher realms. Who would pursue a weaker realm? Isn't this completely contrary to the trend?"

Chu Yan glanced at the old Taoist and said calmly: "Not necessarily. If it is contrary to the trend, then what was your previous practice in adversity? You are obviously very strong, why do you have to go back to the weak realm? Polish one by one? "

The old Taoist was stunned, thought for a while and said: "Because of the foundation..."

After saying that, he looked enlightened: "You mean, there are problems with our foundation?"

Chu Yan nodded: "Yes, I have never thought about this before, but as the senior of the Emperor's Way finished speaking, I gradually had some ideas. Perhaps the Three Dust Realm is not the beginning, there is actually a lower realm. Moreover, this realm is not weak, but more delicate, or I would like to call it a microscopic realm. "

"Microscopic realm?" The old Taoist said.

Chu Yan nodded: "Yes, a more microscopic and more delicate realm."

At this time, he thought for a while and said: "In fact, this is also easy to understand. I will give you an example, and you can actually understand it very well."

At this moment, not only the old Taoist, but everyone looked at Chu Yan.

Listening silently.

Chu Yan was not stingy.

This is the Emperor's Way area. This microscopic realm itself is a test of breaking through the barrier. Even if he doesn't say it, these people who want to break through this barrier will sooner or later understand it.

Chu Yan said: "Take humans as an example. We are babies when we are born, so we all practice from babies, right?"

Everyone nodded.

"But what about before we were babies?"

Chu Yan said: "Our lives did not start from babies, but from cells, and we became babies little by little, and this process is what we all ignore."

Everyone was stunned.

Starting from cells?

Indeed, everyone thinks that their lives start from the moment they are born.

But in fact, it is not.

It starts from a cell.

Ten months of pregnancy.

This ten-month state is ignored.

Chu Yan continued: "It can also be understood this way. Our practice of the Great Dao, or the construction of the universe, is like building a building. What does it take to build a building and how to build it?"

The old Taoist said: "I know this, using bricks and tiles to build it little by little."

Chu Yan nodded: "Yes, this is our common problem. Our practice starts with bricks and tiles, and then we build a world, but where do bricks and tiles come from?"

"..."

The old Taoist fell silent.

Suddenly, he seemed to have grasped something vaguely.

But he couldn't explain it clearly.

But he roughly understood what Chu Yan meant.

Their path of cultivation did not start from the beginning.

Everyone thinks that a tall building starts from the first brick.

But this is actually not true.

Just as Chu Yan said, what about this brick?

Where did the brick come from?

"Bricks are made of clay, so the path of cultivation should start from the first clay!" Chu Yan said: "That's not right, clay is composed of water, sand and loess. Even loess and sand can be further split into the smallest particles."

"And this particle is the real beginning of the Tao, and it is the place where cultivation is truly opened!"

"The Tao is never a line, but a point!"

Chu Yan took a deep breath: "I actually overlooked this point. The reason why we think that avenues are lines is because when we were born, we saw linear avenues, but these avenues were also composed of points. ”

The old Taoist was confused when he heard this, and said strangely: "But, what is the point of doing this? In the path of cultivation, it is meaningless to pursue a weaker realm instead of pursuing a higher realm."

"not necessarily."

Chu Yan shook his head: "Old Taoist, let me ask you, do you control yourself now with hands, feet, and limbs as units?"

The old Taoist nodded: "Yes."

Chu Yan said: "Then give it a try. You start controlling every cell! The simplest thing is that your body will be more flexible and there will be more places you can control."

"Normal people can't feel the existence of cells. They can only feel intuitive things like hands and feet. But imagine that you can control every cell in your body. How flexible will your body be? Your hands and feet. , can grow anywhere at will, your feet can become hands, and your hands can become feet," Chu Yan said.

The old man was stunned, and he chose to give it a try.

But after a while, he was sweating profusely, but he couldn't do it no matter what. He shook his head: "No, it's too difficult... In normal fights, strong power is easy to control, but instead this weak power, I can’t control it?”

Chu Yan nodded: "Everyone is like this, micro-management is the most difficult. To give a simple example, the most difficult thing in the world is never killing people, but saving people. It is operating and suturing countless blood vessels. Your You can’t even shake your hands.”

"If you are stronger, you will kill people."

The old man fell into silence.

So did the rest.

The Lord of the Imperial Way showed a satisfied smile at this time.

"Very smart?"

Yes, what he taught at this level was the microscopic realm.

not only that.

Chu Yan's thoughts have always been very divergent. He often only needs one point to think of many things.

He took a deep breath: "Actually, isn't our universe the same?"

The old Taoist asked: "What do you mean?"

"Connecting dots to form a line is the avenue, connecting the lines to form a surface is the interface, and connecting the surfaces to form a body is the universe!"

Chu Yan said: "The biggest difference between the universe and the world is that there is the concept of time and there are eras!"

The veteran was stunned: "It seems to be true."

Both of them have opened the universe.

So it becomes clearer about the nature of the universe.

In fact, the truth of a universe is a surface connected by avenues, and this surface is the world!

When Chu Yan first reached the second realm level, two realms appeared in his world.

Later, the nine realms merged into one, forming a three-dimensional space with time changes.

And this is the universe!

"The four-dimensional universe!"

Chu Yan took a deep breath: "Dimension..."

This was the first time that he truly felt the existence of dimensions.

It turns out that he only knew that he opened the universe.

But he had never seriously thought about the difference between the universe and the world, the Tao, and the point. He just felt that the universe was a little bigger than the world.

Now he understands!

The universe is a four-dimensional space.

The world is three-dimensional.

However, it turns out that he only knew two dimensions.

Today, the Lord of the Imperial Way preached to him to let him truly feel one dimension.

"call."

Suddenly, Chu Yan took a deep breath, and then bowed deeply to the Lord of the Imperial Way: "Thank you, senior, for preaching. I have learned from you today."

He did not know the position of the Lord of the Imperial Way and was not sure.

There is a high probability that they will also be enemies in the future.

But at least at this moment, he was very grateful to the Lord of the Imperial Way.

It was the other party's generous advice that gave him new insights.

Of course, some people may think that even mastering one dimension is of no use.

Strength will not increase.

But Chu Yan clearly understood that this was not the case.

Controlling one dimension means more precise control of power and avenues.

For example, Chu Yan used to attack with avenues, but now he can split the avenues into points, which is more subtle.

not only that.

Chu Yan squinted his eyes, and at this moment he even thought of something deeper.

"My original universe is woven with avenues, that is, it is composed of lines. It is linear."

"But, if I can split the avenue into points, can I change the universe into a universe composed of points?"

The old Taoist said from the side: "Okay? But, is there any difference between the two?"

"The universe is the universe."

"Isn't it the same whether it is composed of points or lines?"

Chu Yan rolled his eyes at him: "Think carefully about the difference between dots and lines."

The old man was silent for a while, then shook his head.

Chu Yan sighed: "You are really stupid, hopelessly stupid. I really can't figure it out. How did you think of opening up the universe in the first place?"
