Myriad Paths

Li Qi's thoughts suddenly began to race rapidly.

I am something beyond the imagination of the devil...

In other words, his heresy is something that the devil has not yet imagined.

Can one imagine something that does not exist?

It's not that it doesn't exist, but... it's something he has never seen, never understood.

Not a collection of fragments of reality, but something that truly never existed.

For example, if someone imagines a beautiful girl with cat ears, but there is no beautiful girl with cat ears in reality, does that mean he has imagined something that does not exist?

No, this is just a combination of things that already exist. He is not imagining something that does not exist. He just put the cat and the beautiful girl together.

Suppose, then, that a person's imagination is so powerful that he actually imagines something that does not exist and does not contain any existing things or concepts.

Putting aside the feasibility, even if he really does it, no matter how hard he tries, he will not be able to describe this thing in reality unless he uses his imagination to set up an independent and highly autonomous system. Information transmission mechanism to describe this thing alone.

However, because he set up a set of this mechanism to describe it, others cannot understand it. Because it has nothing to do with any concept in reality, he cannot describe it in a metaphorical way, and others cannot even understand this set of mechanisms. , the demon is naturally completely unable to use its own transformation method to manifest it into reality.

Even the devil can't break through this barrier, right? This is a paradox that only exists in logic. As long as you still follow logic, you cannot break through.

This is a paradox.

If you can imagine something, you can explain it; if you can't imagine it, others can't imagine it, so they can't explain it, just like the invisible fire-breathing dragon in the garage.

(Note: There is a fire-breathing dragon hidden in the garage. It is invisible, floating in the air, spitting flames without heat and cannot be detected by any method, and only you can see it. Can anyone else prove that this fire-breathing dragon is not invisible? exist?)

So, to the demon, Li Qi is the fire-breathing dragon in the garage.

Moreover, Li Qi, the invisible fire-breathing dragon, appeared in the real world.

This is an existence that others cannot imagine, describe, or even falsify. A dreamlike thing appears in reality.

Moreover, I'm afraid it only makes sense to the devil.

For the witchcraft and humanity, there is no difference between the "existence" and "non-existence" of the fire-breathing dragon, so it is more concise to treat it as non-existent. If it exists, then it only needs to be included in the existence.

Their will is realistic and rooted in matter. They only need to acknowledge the things that exist in reality and do not need to get entangled with those products that only exist in consciousness.

The devil is different. The devil is a path constructed by absolute subjective idealism. The devil can ignore all reality, but it can only doubt its own imagination, because in the devil's view, even this real world is only their self-awareness. It’s just a projection from the outside world.

In the world, only one's own will is absolutely real, and everything else may be false.

Himself is something other than his self-projection, something that comes from outside the imagination of the demon. Apart from his own will, the demon has a second reality that can confirm its true existence.

Very simple logical deduction.

First of all, first, the demon knows everything in the world. His eyes are all over the sky, every world, and maybe even everyone, so he knows everything. Even Chang'an has his eyes, and I'm afraid he also has them in the human palace.

Demons are the sum total of all "known" things in the universe. Everyone has demon thoughts in their heart, so... everyone may be a demon.

Second, it is known that the demon knows everything about reality, and he regards all this as his own projection in the outside world. The evidence is that he knows everything, and everything in reality can be reproduced by the demon in the world of desire.

So, what is the difference between the desire world and the real world?

The answer is, there is no difference. There is no difference between a person's survival in the desire world and his survival in the real world, and it is impossible to find any difference. They are absolutely the same and no different.

Then, the things in the desire world are changed by the demon, which means that the things in the outside world may also be changed by the demon, but it may not be this demon.

Then, based on the first and second, the third point is drawn, that is: if there is something other than the self-projection of the devil, which is unknown to the devil, then it proves that in addition to the devil's self-only spiritual entity, There is a second spiritual entity in the world!

This second spiritual entity may not be Li Qi, Li Qi may be just an extension of this second spiritual entity.

But it doesn't matter, Li Qi's existence proves that Li Qi is not the spiritual projection of the demon, but the projection of other things.

Then, finding this second spiritual entity is the key for the demon to break through the shackles of himself.

In this world, the only thing that the demon can be sure of is the existence of his own thoughts, because he can transform everything into a demon, and he has enough reasons to suspect that everything in the world is changed.

Then, if there is nothing in the world and it is all a dream, and everything is the projection of his own thoughts on the outside world, then there cannot be anything in this dream that he cannot imagine.

However, it has been proven that Li Qi and the heretics behind him are things that the demon cannot imagine, which means that there is a second spiritual entity other than the demon itself.

That's why the demon cares so much about Li Qi, and only the demon would value Li Qi so much, because Li Qi is something other than the shackles of his self-conscious imagination, and is the key to breaking the shackles!

Even the other first-class ones are within his imagination and understanding, so the other first-class ones may also be the self-projection of the demon, but only Li Qi is not.

So, it is only natural that he bet big on himself.

Li Qi quickly thought about it in his mind and finally had to admit it.

If that's the case, then... I can indeed make the demon 'transcend'.

Rather than transcending this world, it allows the demon to transcend itself and ultimately include ‘existence’ and ‘non-existence’ in one’s own body.

He transforms into a demon of freedom, and will continue to be full of changes because of himself, instead of remaining the same.

Because a perfect thing must be immutable, the Desire Realm has become the sum of all real things after the demon became a first-class one. There is nothing in this world that is not included in the Desire Realm.

Therefore, when he transforms into a free-spirited demon, he is no longer free and unable to change.

only……

Li Qi trembled and felt his mouth dry.

The sum total of all real things.

It's so easy to say...

But think about it carefully, what kind of existence and what kind of power is this.

This existence...is targeting me?

"Alas..." Li Qi couldn't help but sigh.

After the Taifu heard his sigh, he began to continue: "But you don't have to worry, the demon used repeated statistics in the sense of time to restore the sum of things that happened in the same space in different time and space, and used this to form But this also imprisons the ability of the Desire Realm to change, preventing him from finding you. As long as you don’t go to the Desire Realm and provide your information to the demon, he will not be able to fulfill his wish. "

"That is to say...the way to ensure my safety is to stay away from the world?" Li Qi raised his head.

"That's probably true. However, we won't restrict you too much. After all, you are from Wushen Mountain." Taifu said calmly: "If you really insist on seeing the demon, no one can stop you, unless Wu Shenshan The sacred mountain will kill you to avoid future troubles.”

"So, do you have anything else to ask?" Taifu said without waiting for Li Qi to continue thinking.

Li Qi was still immersed in shock at this moment. When he heard this, he shook his head: "I know what I should know, but there is still one thing unknown. If anything before the Sansheng Ancient Mirror was arranged by the devil, What did I do when I entered the Tang Dynasty, and then I was asked to go to White Horse Temple to exorcise demons? "

The Taifu said: "I really don't know about this, but as far as the White Horse Temple is concerned, there is something wrong with the Three Lives Ancient Mirror. It can be seen that regardless of whether Kashemateng knows it or not, he is at least suspected, so Kashemateng The problem of the White Horse Temple under construction will not be that small. If you go to the White Horse Temple, you should have the same thing waiting for you. "

Li Qi shook his head.

It is difficult to move even an inch.

So many things you can't control, and one wrong move and you'll die.

Really...

Hard to bear.

But, is the old man standing in front of him a friendly army?

Probably not.

Humanity and witchcraft are not friends, and they will not be friends in the foreseeable future.

In fact, Li Qi actually felt that what the other party told him might not be the truth...

For example, are you just inducing yourself to reject the devil? Let yourself go and don't go to the realm of desire or anything like that.

Thinking of this, Li Qi sighed inwardly.

Can't tell, can't see clearly.

It seemed as if everything was shrouded in fog, as if he was walking blindfolded on a single-plank bridge alone. If he took one wrong step, he would fall into the abyss and die without a burial.

Who can believe it? What can be believed?

Li Qi took a deep breath, suppressed these distracting thoughts, and then asked: "Then...that side of the Witch God that the Tutor mentioned?"

The Taifu shook his head: "You have to ask the Witch God about this. About you...ah, your master is here. You can ask him the rest."

After saying that, he disappeared without even saying goodbye.

At the same time, Li Qi suddenly felt a huge pressure coming from outside!

He felt like he was hit by someone, and then, with a bang, the entire roof was blown away.

In the midst of the mess, Zhu Fengdan, carrying a shock wave and looking miserable, appeared in front of Li Qi the next moment.

There is a big difference from his previous appearance.

In the past, Zhu Fengdan was carefree, wearing loose and comfortable robes. He liked fashion and usually wore the most popular clothes.

He even put on his armor, but there was a huge gap in his chest, which penetrated his armor and came out from his back. There was still demonic energy attached to the wound, constantly eroding it.

In addition, other scars can be seen, but many spells can also be seen taking effect at the same time to drive away all of them.

"Teacher!" Li Qi stood up immediately, without even bothering to salute, and hurriedly went to help him.

But Zhu Fengdan opened him up and said, "You don't need to help me. Let Boyue and the others ask for leave for you and go back to the mountain gate."

"Yes." Li Qi immediately took out the terminal and sent a bunch of messages, and also sent a bunch of messages to Shen Shuibi.

After confirming that they had received the message, he then smashed the terminal with both hands and threw it aside.

Zhu Fengdan saw this and grabbed Li Qi's shoulders. Li Qi only felt a strange wave coming out.

Chang'an's forbidden air formation was directly shattered.

Energy flows like electric sparks appeared in the air within a range of thousands of miles, crackling.

"Zhu Fengdan!" An angry roar came from the distance.

Li Qi could tell that this sounded like Chang'an Jing Zhaoyin's voice.

But Zhu Fengdan didn't pay any attention to it, and quickly crossed the distance and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Li Qi couldn't see clearly, he just felt that it took him a while, but within a few seconds, he found that he had sat on Dapeng.

It's the big roc raised by my teacher.

Oh, it seems that they are not raised, but hired with money.

Among the pavilions on Dapeng's body, there was another half-dead witchcraft senior.

That was the great witch Mi Xin. He seemed to be seriously injured. Half of his body had turned black, and black smoke was emitting. His whole body had become as clear-cut as a panda.

Before he could sit still, the Dapeng accelerated directly.

There was a burst of lightning and thunder, and the world's strong wind layer was torn apart. Countless aircraft were affected and flipped to the side, and countless people cursed.

But Zhu Fengdan still didn't care. Dapeng quickly broke through the Gangfeng layer, and then left the world barrier in a dazzling light and entered the outside world.

Outside the territory, the sun and moon can be seen, rotating around a giant continent.

This is the second time Li Qi has viewed the world from this perspective. The last time he saw it was when he was taken to Wushen Mountain by a fifth-grade wizard.

It's just... this time, he found that something seemed wrong.

Outside the territory, floating... numerous corpses.

It seems to be the corpse of a demon.

There are demonic monks and there are pure demons.

The largest one among them is even one-third as big as the sun in the world. The remains of its body float in the endless void, as if it adds a shadow to the sun.

But the other corpses were even more numerous.

Hundreds of millions...?

I'm afraid there are more than one, there are at least tens of billions of demon corpses, like a black river, attracted by the gravity of the sun, falling towards the sun in a circle,

This scene is like hanging a black star ring on this huge star.

When he was trapped in that boundless darkness, what exactly was happening outside?

Li Qi immediately looked at the two great witches lying next to Dapeng.

Zhu Fengdan slumped on the spot weakly: "Don't ask, I'm too lazy to say, wait until I take a break——"

(The fourth volume ends and a new chapter begins, after which Li Qi will officially become an adult.)
