Myriad Paths

In the Realm of Desire, Li Qi chose to stop and turned into the 'normal form' he was used to, that is, he looked like an ordinary person, no higher than the fourth grade, and he could definitely tell the difference between him and ordinary people.

This is very different from the previous way of deliberately showing off one's power and showing oneself off.

"Deliberately ignoring it?" Li Qi, who had changed into a normal posture, was floating in the void, holding his chin with one hand.

Being like this, it's like a transfer student who kicked down the door in the classroom and then everyone ignored him. He was cold-blooded and isolated.

Looking around, although the realm of desire is so fantastic and magnificent, for the third grade, well...

In fact, that's it. It can even be said that the entire desire world is not too far from the real world outside. Although there are no so-called "physical laws" in the desire world, the "will" of all living beings makes this place pretend to have physics. The rules are the same'.

Yes, pretending.

Since everyone thinks there should be physical laws here, then there really are them here.

Then, in the same way, in other places, this place is exactly the same as the outside world. In the true sense, it is the ‘summation of all realities’, completely replicating all the ecology outside the normal territory.

The only difference is...beings of level four and above are all demons.

Yes, this is the base camp of the devil.

However, this also proves one thing, that is, it seems that it is not too difficult for these great leaders to recreate a real universe.

The only thing that cannot be reproduced is the existence of reality.

When it reaches the third level, it is not only realistic, but even unique, so it is even more impossible to easily reproduce it.

"Uniqueness..." Li Qi thought, tentatively creating a 'self'.

The 'Tao' that Li Qi understood was unique. It was made up of many thoughts, laws, subjective cognitions, and observations of objective reality. It was even fabricated by his own subjective consciousness and created a whole set of 'interpretations of reality' The ideological system of 'encompassing the world' and 'interpreting life'.

However, this does not mean that other people cannot have the same views. There are so many people in the world, what if there is someone who has exactly the same understanding of the world as Li Qi? Right.

For example, the person Li Qi created now.

He is using his own 'Tao' to create a human race. All the memories of this human race's past have been virtualized by Li Qi, and his 'Tao' is the same as Li Qi's. His knowledge and views on the world, Hedu is exactly the same as Li Qiru.

Once this replica is created...

The next moment, Li Qi felt that his consciousness appeared in this body.

Yes, it directly occupied the opponent's consciousness. Obviously the person created by Li Qi had his own consciousness, and he was even a living person. However, Li Qi's consciousness penetrated all obstacles and appeared directly in the opponent's mind. middle.

"Is this uniqueness? It's really overbearing." Li Qi was a little surprised.

As a third-level person, he already possesses uniqueness, which means that even if someone copies Li Qi, Li Qi's consciousness will immediately awaken in this copy.

Even if Li Qi's body dies, as long as the same 'Tao' appears as his, he will be reborn there immediately.

Super immortality beyond the mechanism of resurrection.

Immortality in the true sense of the word, eternal existence with the Tao.

It cannot be copied or destroyed.

So, if that's the case...when Li Qi was promoted to the third level, had Humanity already destroyed all the research bases on Li Qi?

Otherwise, the Li Qi replica they created should be completely noticed by Li Qi at this moment, but Li Qi actually didn't feel anything was wrong.

"It's a bit strange." Li Qi said, waving his hand to destroy the copy of himself in front of him.

What was very strange was that he really felt like he was being destroyed.

However, consciousness is not affected.

It's just like……

I opened two small accounts on my computer, and now one of them has been cancelled.

But there is something different. Regardless of the small or large size, there is a person behind it.

Li Qi himself was not sure.

He felt that now that his most powerful body was destroyed, in fact... he would not die.

However, does the current Li Qi have an ‘identity’?

He couldn't figure it out anyway, but based on his current experience, Li Qi could feel that his essence was filled with everything.

It's hard to describe what kind of state this is, but Li Qi can conclude that if there really is a 'metaphysical' thing, then he must be one of them.

"What is metaphysical is called the Tao, and what is metaphysical is called the weapon."

The abstract, transcendent origin of the senses, the ontology of all things, etc. It includes the past, present, future and the transcendence of space.

Today, for Li Qi, the material body or spirit itself is just his container. His essence has transcended the constraints of spirit and matter, and has developed into an indescribable state.

but--

Why?

What did he do?

He just gained some knowledge, did a dojo, and then placed the gods in his body according to the corresponding situation. Finally, he advanced his cultivation based on the skills and the existing situation.

Then, it became like this.

He didn't even know why.

It's like... when he was at the ninth level, he performed some rituals and then gained divine energy. Then when the divine energy accumulated to a certain level, he reached the ninth level.

It's that simple. As for the principle of promotion, Li Qi didn't understand it until he reached the seventh level. Before, he never understood why he could reach the ninth level, even though he was already the ninth level.

It's the same when you're at level three.

He only knew that he had reached the third level and had become a 'metaphysical' existence, but he didn't know exactly how he did it or even what he looked like.

It was like a divine power descended from heaven, suddenly lifted up by a certain great god.

This feeling has never appeared again since Li Qi's seventh grade.

In the past, when he was promoted, he had a clear understanding of his own status, the source of his strength, and the foundation of his cultivation. This was the case all the way up to the fourth rank.

But it was different now. After showing his strength, he didn't even understand why he was so strong.

Why? How did he become like this after he was promoted? What changes have occurred in him?

"Uncle Changqin, he said that there are many secrets that I need to explore. There are many things that he can't tell me, which will involve a lot, but if I find out by myself, there will be no problem..."

"Is this the reason?" Li Qi looked at his hands and muttered to himself.

While thinking this, Li Qi suddenly raised his head!

Someone was coming, and they were coming in his direction.

Li Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, with a confused expression.

The visitor... seems to be a demon? The fourth level of demon? But that kind of deep demonic energy doesn't look like a fourth-grade one.

how to say.

According to the feedback from Zhenzhi, the other party's cultivation level looks like the fourth level of the demon path.

But the demonic energy in the opponent's body is far beyond that, it has even reached the level of third grade, and it is still actively moving towards him.

"A demon? Such a typical demon, but it doesn't seem to be hostile?" Li Qi thought, put away his thoughts, and actively waited for the other party to approach.

Then, what appeared in front of him was a monkey.

monkey?

No way?

Li Qi suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.

This is a demon monkey, and the demonic aura on his body is quite violent, but compared with the mere fourth-grade demonic aura, the demonic aura is even stronger. The rolling demonic aura almost dyes the surrounding area black. When Jiayun comes, I only feel that the situation is very gloomy, with heavy clouds blocking the moon.

The momentum on Li Qi's side also changed. Light rain began to fall around him, mixed with miasma smoke. The temple was desolate and the drums were beating loudly, as if an old witch was dancing.

Li Qi looked at the monkey running over and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

He has a hairy face, a sharp mouth, and a short body, only about 1.34 meters tall, which is the height a monkey should have. He is not 'beautiful', but rather evil.

How should I put it? It's a bit like the 'demon monkey' that Li Qi knew.

But now Li Qi knows that the myths he knew on Earth are completely specious, just like those stories spread outside the territory. They seem to fit together in some places, but not in many places. If you really want to take that seriously , 100% will trap yourself.

It can only be used as a reference, but it must not be taken as true.

In many worlds outside the territory, there are also legends circulating around the world. There are more versions, and many of them are reliable. What Li Qi knows is actually the same as what they know.

Having said that, Li Qi looked at the other party seriously in the void, thinking about what was going on.

It seemed that he was only at the fourth level, but his body seemed to have the essence of the third level hidden in it, which was confusing. Li Qi used the true knowledge scan, but it seemed that he could not see through his true cultivation level.

How to put it... It's a bit like a third-level 'treasure', and then relying on one's own efforts to cultivate to the fourth level. Although it sounds a bit hip-hop, it is true that many people are like this.

For example, Li Shiwei’s jade pendant stone.

The stone is Shanxuan Baoyu, which is born with the sixth grade. If it is directly used to make a magic weapon, it will be the raw material of the sixth grade. However, he later became the seventh grade through his own practice, and then slowly climbed to his sixth grade essence. superior.

This is normal. After many treasures are born with spiritual wisdom, they will choose to practice on their own instead of directly accepting their own essence. Some will even abandon their original bodies in the end, reincarnate and rebuild, and then use the body of their previous life as a magic weapon.

After all, what you are born with may not be in line with your own ‘Tao’.

This monster monkey seems to be like this right now?

Seeing the other party coming forward on his own initiative, Li Qize immediately asked: "Who is your Excellency?"

Who would have thought that the monster monkey scratched his chin and said, "Ask me? You took the initiative to show off and caught my eye. Shouldn't you declare yourself first?"

The voice was sharp and sounded like someone was choking.

"Yes, that makes sense. Hello, I am Li Qi. I am a disciple of Wushen Mountain. As you can see, I am a witch." Li Qi said.

This introduction is already very clear. After all, with the name, the powerful one can even directly calculate the past.

However, the demon monkey in front of him turned his neck in confusion: "Witch? What is that?"

"You don't know Wu Jin?" Li Qi was stunned.

"I wonder, what kind of great person are you? Is it a crime not to know?" The demon monkey bared its teeth and looked at Li Qi with great dissatisfaction, even showing some kind of attack.

"No, no, I'm just a little curious, Brother Monkey... I'll just call you that, or can I ask for your honorable name?" Li Qi said politely and thoughtfully.

In the entire world of desire, only this person responded to him, and the other third-level demons all shrank.

So what's going on?

It seemed that because of Li Qi's attitude, the demon monkey's aggressiveness subdued a little, but he said: "You know the name, but the name... It's true, it's not impossible for you to call me Brother Monkey. I was born here." I have never left my home, and I have never seen anyone else. You are the first one to talk to me."

"The first one to speak? Ah, this is really..." Li Qi looked a little embarrassed.

It's not that Li Qi doubts the authenticity of the other party's words, because... as far as the power of the fourth grade is concerned, it is indeed easy to learn a language directly as soon as it is spoken, and can even 'know it from birth' and learn it from the void on its own. Deduced a whole set of methods.

After all, the fourth grade has incomplete reality. In other words, they can derive an entire world on their own. Although this world may be incomplete, it is enough to prove that...knowledge can be born out of thin air.

For language, which is not a profound knowledge, the two parties can even just rely on eye contact, or use energy waves.

"You don't look very happy, what? Are you not satisfied with talking to me?" The demon monkey seemed a little sensitive, and immediately got angry.

"No, no, Brother Monkey made a mistake. I'm just a little surprised. Was Brother Monkey born here?" Li Qi asked again.

"That's right? I was born in this place. There is nothing but me. I made some gadgets to amuse Menzi, but I can't get out." The monster monkey said.

While saying that, he also demonstrated it.

But he saw him take one step forward, breaking through the distance of thousands of light years in an instant. However, the next moment, the invisible chains turned into concrete forms on his body, and even a shadow appeared behind him. The shadow was like a heavy mountain, clanking. He was knocked to the ground in one fell swoop.

Then the chains tightened and he was dragged back into the distance.

It was really far away, it seemed to be where his seal was.

Li Qi immediately chased after him, and soon he came to a golden mountain floating in the void.

The mountain is not big, no more than 10,000 feet high. It looks like a straight up and down column, golden, and there are many worlds surrounding the mountain. These worlds seem to have been created by the monster monkey in front of me, because Li When Qi scanned it, he found that the intelligent creatures inside were all monkeys.

"Look, that's it." The demon monkey broke free from the chains and walked out from the bottom of the mountain as if nothing had happened.
