Myriad Paths

The inner demon died.

When the inner demon tried to take over Li Qi's body, it was counterattacked.

He met a person who should have died.

Li Qi.

That's right, when his heart was wiped out by the demon, Li Qi's soul was protected by the colorless world, and then hid in the Ten Thousand Heavens of the Three Realms.

When he took over Li Qi's body in the way of the inner demon, he found that Li Qi was still alive.

So, the inner demon died.

And Li Qi... in these countless billions of years of experience, felt all the creatures in the Ten Thousand Heavens.

There, he was tested.

He had to find a way to find a way to break through subjective cognition.

So, he stayed in the Ten Thousand Heavens.

There, he sometimes respected others and sometimes was respected.

Sometimes he was a guide and sometimes a follower.

Sometimes he was a child and sometimes an elder.

Sometimes he was a powerful being and sometimes an insect.

Sometimes he was a man and sometimes a woman.

Sometimes it was darkness and sometimes it was light.

Sometimes he is a tyrant, sometimes he is a slave.

In this kind of floating and changing process, there will be a moment of two becoming one from time to time. He is both a teacher and a student at the same time. He changes and teaches sentient beings, and draws new knowledge from sentient beings to improve himself, and then passes on this improved knowledge to others.

Therefore, he even goes far beyond both, becoming a creator, explorer, driver and bystander in the alternating cycle of aging and youth.

He is doing this reincarnation and observing this reincarnation. He also slows down and strives to move forward as his feelings change.

One after another, new images continue to emerge from this process.

These things are not so much a symbol as a "confirmation". This is an understanding rather than a picture. In other words, it is more appropriate to say that it is not a "feeling" but an awakening.

In this process, Li Qi reconfirmed his previous answer.

He found that there is truth.

But the "complete theory" that those pursuers desire, the absolute, perfect theory that makes people full of wisdom after reading it, does not exist.

Moreover, you should not desire a perfect doctrine, but should desire to make yourself perfect and flawless.

Just like everything, this theory is not in any concept or book.

Truth, or "Tao", is obtained through experience. Tao cannot be taught or described.

But in this process, he gradually gained a wonderful experience.

Beyond subjective time.

What is subjective time?

Imagine that a thing must have a logical order before and after, regardless of whether this logical order can be changed, such as the timeline of mortals, but in any case, the time sequence of a thing is always determined.

From Li Qi's birth to now, can his own time sequence be torn apart?

He was created by the demon on the banks of the Lishui River, and then he experienced so much. Everything actually happened in order. If the order was reversed, Li Qi's experience and thoughts would be confused.

Even for his own stability, he had to maintain the existence of these.

Otherwise, the existence of 'Li Qi' will completely collapse, and all the elements that can be called Li Qi will be completely lost.

So, how can we get rid of this shackles and transcend subjective time?

The method that Li Qi thought of is actually very simple.

That is the method of the demon.

Use the eyes of others to look at yourself.

As mentioned before, the demon is the demon thought itself, and everyone has a demon thought.

The demon thought is actually everyone's thought itself, and the demon is also a demon thought, so the demon is everyone's thought itself, so the demon can look at his own objectivity from the subjective perspective of others.

Li Qi's time sequence may not be in order for other people.

It is normal that subjective time and objective time are inconsistent. Time itself is like this. It is just a description of the movement of things, not an absolute value.

Then, looking at Li Qi from the perspective of other things can break through Li Qi's own subjectivity.

Imagine that there are three perspectives in total, Li Qi's subjective perspective, objective perspective A, and objective perspective B.

The three run at different speeds, so the time sequence they see is also different, and there will be a "clock slow phenomenon", but this description is only correct in the observer's reference frame.

And Li Qi, at this moment, has three reference frames with the help of the magic thought.

Five seconds have passed in Li Qi's subjective time, three seconds have passed in objective perspective A, and a hundred years have passed in objective perspective B.

It's like a person traveling at the speed of light. From his perspective, he has reached his destination in an instant, while from the perspective of others, he has taken as many years as he should.

The trajectory drawn by a moving particle in the four-dimensional space on the real number field is called the world line of this particle. Each point on the trajectory is called an event of this particle, and different world lines themselves may contradict each other.

For beings above the third rank, this paradox is easy to break. They don't follow the causal law of the outside world at all, and everything is based on their own subjective time.

This is also a major argument of the demon's magic thought.

Time and space are relative, which means that time and space are subjective.

This proves that objective, absolute time and space do not exist, so it is natural for one's own will to interpret the world.

But the problem comes again.

Even if Li Qi borrows the method of magic thoughts and uses other perspectives to watch, Li Qi even borrows part of the viewpoints of the demon for this purpose, but forcibly using many objective perspectives to observe his subjective time will kill him.

He looks at his subjective perspective from the perspective of objective perspective A, and he will find that his subjective perspective is misplaced, and there will be a "difference" between the two.

What I see is not consistent with what you actually see.

If you only focus on your own subjective time, then this inconsistency will not have any consequences. Everyone has their own subjectivity, and they do not interfere with each other.

But if you have to connect the two together and observe your own subjectivity with the objectivity of others, then the "cognition" will be torn apart by the "difference".

This difference can even tear Li Qi's time sequence to pieces, making his subjective perspective fragmented and unable to run self-consistently.

This may even lead to his possibility closure.

Because, if the time sequence collapses, when should he do what?

For example, in the next second, Li Qi is ready to make a move, and in this second, he starts to think about making a move, but because the time sequence collapses, he will never be able to make a move in the next second, because... the next second may not come at all.

Thinking about making a move and preparing to make a move may even be reversed, causing him to be ready to make a move without thinking, but never really making a move.

Even reality itself will be pulled around by the chaotic time sequence, not knowing where to go or what to do, after all, in the case of disordered time sequence, you want to pick up a glass of water.

But the next event jumps to the time when the water has been drunk long ago, or to some other strange time point.

Every moment, there is a completely unfamiliar landscape in front of you, every action has no consequences, and every event has no cause. This is the result of disordered time sequence.

Endless events flicker alternately in the chaotic time sequence, and each thing is independent of each other, unable to form a complete timeline and logical order, and therefore unable to take any action, after all, everything has no cause and effect.

How to solve it?

Li Qi couldn't find it before, but now, Li Qi finally found a solution.

It's very simple and ridiculous.

That is the 'absolute reference system'.

In other words, it is what Yang Zhenqian desperately sent to Li Qi...

The sun and the moon move.

The root of movement, absolute space.

Due to its nature and its irrelevance to external things, it is always the same and motionless.

The place of absolute stillness, the heavens revolve around it.

This is 'Chenji'.

A first-grade Tao foundation that exists now.

Obviously, in ordinary space and time, in the spatial dimension, there is no way to prove the absoluteness of a reference system.

But what if it is a mysterious space and time that is still from its existence itself?

It is indeed very difficult to prove the absoluteness of Chenji.

Many second-grades have done this, and all the second-grades who wanted to prove their Taoism with this have all perished, and they have not been able to fully prove the absoluteness of Chenji.

If this point is not proved, it is impossible to achieve Taoism with this.

So how can Li Qi prove this?

It's very simple.

Go for broke.

Just bet your life.

He directly tore his own subjectivity apart and fell into the tear of the difference of subjective time.

Then, if Chen Ji can solve his current state, it proves Chen Ji's absoluteness.

If Chen Ji can't solve it.

Then he will die on the road to enlightenment like those second-grade witches who fell before.

Enlightenment is like this, and even this process is difficult to describe, because all this can only be thought about on the basis of one's own cognition, which is the sum of all experiences from birth to now. People cannot understand things beyond their own cognition. If you understand, you understand, and if you don't understand, you can't explain it clearly.

But no matter what, the result is obvious.

He succeeded.

He destroyed the inner demon, and... he successfully supported Taiyi's body.

How many first-grade opportunities does Li Qi have?

The "three realms" composed of Amitabha Pure Land, Desire Realm, Ten Thousand Heavens and Formless Realm.

"Chen Ji" from the sun and moon.

And Taiyi's body.

Three in total, and the three complement each other, jointly creating Li Qi's current strength.

A newly born first-grade, but there are three first-grade opportunities, its strength is naturally beyond the ordinary first-grade.

The three realms are the eggshell desire realm of the demon, the formless realm created by the Tathagata, and the color realm created by Li Qi with his own second-grade path, using Taiyi as inspiration and reference. The three are combined to create something similar to the fairyland.

Chenji is the result of Yang Zhenqian's life. All his accumulation is to discover Chenji. This is the whole of a top second-grade, even beyond his life.

There is also Taiyi's body, the collection of all star officials.

And all of this constitutes the current Li Qi.

Li Qi stretched his body.

Taiyi's body followed.

At this moment, the battle situation reversed!

The battle situation of the first-grades was originally a delicate balance, which was broken.

"Are you surprised? Demon, can't you see my heart? Of course you can't, because the formless realm is now here with me." Li Qi said so.

"Is this why Wu Xian risked his life to grab the Colorless Realm?" The demon looked at Li Qi and asked.

The battle has begun.

However, the first-level battle is somewhat beyond imagination.

Li Qi felt that he was not fighting anyone, because time and space itself had collapsed under such a battle, and all possibilities were mixed together, and there was no need to search.

What they did was not fighting per se, but hard work more akin to planting trees and reclaiming land from the sea.

The battle did not break out head-on, but it was more terrifying and fierce than any head-on battle.

However, the occupation has been biased towards Li Qi.

Now Li Qi can keep up with the devil.

Everything has demonic thoughts, so the demon can appear in front of everyone at the same time without any hesitation. This is the speed of 'thinking', which is faster than quite a few first-class people.

But Li Qi could keep up.

No matter what possibility the demon jumps to, Li Qi will not be affected by the time difference. His reality is perfect and he can follow Li Qi from any perspective.

There is a saying that the observer's perspective is called "God's perspective".

This perspective, like an omniscient God, can observe anything without restrictions in an unrealistic way, unfold the narrative at different points in time at the same place, and have the voices of multiple characters alternately appear.

What is God’s perspective?

Is there really a God's perspective that can observe all perspectives at the same time?

In fact, there is, that is, having the ability to switch to all perspectives at the same time can be regarded as obtaining the God's perspective.

This kind of perspective is possessed by the demon.

Nowadays, there is also a first-grade Li Qi.

Moreover, the Demon here is not even as good as Li Qi, because the Demon still needs to follow his own subjective time, although he can switch perspectives anytime and anywhere and appear at any time from any perspective.

But Li Qi was one step ahead of him, because Li Qi didn't need to 'switch' this link.

With an absolute reference system, he has all perspectives at the same time and will not be torn by the time difference.

That's why Li Qi is faster than Tianmo.

In the war of possibilities, Li Qi suppressed the demon!

In this kind of fight, Li Qi sighed: "Oh... no wonder you are so calm. If you have this kind of speed, my struggle in the second-grade period will indeed be just a child's game in your eyes. Look, It looks like it's struggling, but it's actually just your toy."

"But it's different now. What, why don't you speak?" Li Qi asked.

The demon didn't reply, because Li Qi's speed indeed surpassed him.

However……

That's it.

Winning is not that simple.

The battle between the first rank is not that simple, Li Qi. (End of chapter)
