Myriad Paths

When you have reality and can control space and time itself...

You had a quarrel with your family, so you go back to before there was any quarrel. So, if you understand it in a more extreme way, wouldn't it be... you killed the quarreling family members and re-created a group of family members who didn't quarrel?

Or to put it another way, you pushed GAL to a bad ending, and your girlfriend's favorability dropped. You directly loaded the file, said it again, and then got the smile you wanted.

There is almost no difference between the two. You must first regard everything as being 'below' you before you can implement it.

Different orthodox traditions have different attitudes towards this.

Although there are individual differences, it is generally possible to summarize the cognitive attitudes of different orthodox traditions towards this kind of retrospection.

The way of witchcraft means that illusory things are also real. Although some witches don't care, most witches actually think that they shouldn't do this. They will not look back, or rarely look back, only when necessary. Only do this later, such as the battle between humans and witches.

And even more extreme, such as witches like Li Qi, their path does not even directly support their backtracking. They believe that the world is real, so it directly greatly weakens the ability to backtrack and can only weakly affect the future. .

As the mortal enemies of witchcraft, humanity is much simpler. Of course, they also believe that the world is real, and the essence of retrospect is to kill them and then reshape them.

So...so what?

Kill, kill. The third level of humanity will protect "people" when they look back and achieve the effect of group time travel, but they will not care about the life, death and survival of any non-human things.

If the situation is urgent and they are unable to protect others, such as when fighting the opponent's third-level battle in the Human Witch War, protecting mortals is obviously something that will reduce the winning rate, so... just regard this as a 'sacrifice', Like all sacrifices, just remember them.

Taoist practitioners, especially the Taoist practitioners of the Hermit Sect, all want to achieve "the only self". Except for their closest friends or friends, they will not care about the life and death of ordinary people, just like Shen Shuibi.

However, Taoist practitioners rarely encounter such a situation, because they basically don't interact with people who can't understand themselves. People who have the ability to understand the third level of Taoism must at least start at the third or fourth level. They themselves can resist retrospection. .

The real dragons are actually similar, but the real dragons are more cruel. The Taoist sect is just a 'me alone', and the real dragons sincerely look down on everyone who is weaker than themselves.

In the Demonic and Spiritual Paths, things are even simpler. They don't have any psychological pressure on backtracking. It doesn't even matter if they are backtracked. It's just an illusion.

It's just that the spiritual path is more gentle and independent. They rarely look back because there are few things that require their intervention. For them, finding the 'idea' that can explain everything in the spiritual world is much more important than external objects. Tao Jiji rarely interferes with the outside world, and they have no Tao disputes to speak of. Any conflicts are personal conflicts.

When it comes to Buddhism and the Demon Clan, they have no specific views on retrospection. These two orthodox traditions almost entirely depend on the individual.

There are those who are unwilling to look back, and there are those who are happy to look back, and there are those who care, and there are those who don't care. The orthodoxy itself does not have any specific tendency.

This also reflects another tendency.

Things change.

It is a very simple thing for a person to become something other than a person.

Practitioners emerge from among mortals, but as they progress they easily leave the group, and rightfully so, for they are indeed different from mortals.

So, is the current state of Zhongweiniao the same?

Li Qi did not continue to ask, he continued to live with Zhongweiniao.

About four hundred years have passed. Four hundred years are enough time for Li Qi to say something from time to time. These words can be accumulated into a short story.

Li Qi and Zhongweiniao talked about some things about various orthodoxies in the world, and about how the lives in the world should deal with the idea of ​​retrospection.

He didn't draw any conclusions, just stated the situation.

During their slow and leisurely process, the environment of this glacier planet gradually became worse and worse, and the living environment became more and more harsh, and Zhongwei Bird chose to leave at this time.

On the last day of this gray glacier world, all living things ushered in an unexpected, real spring day.

Mortals suddenly saw that the sky, which had always been turbulent, turned out to be clear and cloudless, and extremely quiet. It was really a special and strange thing.

The cold wind has completely subsided, the sea surface is very stable, and the same light blue color is everywhere, still.

The originally tiny sun now emits a warm but not dazzling white light. The desolate area in this area is soaked by this sunlight, as if it is slowly covered by a precious and rare thing. Even the most remote areas become happy and active.

There is a pleasant warmth in the air, exuding the breath of spring, and one can't help but pray that the weather will not change again in the future, and there will be no more gloomy days and snowstorms.

The dullness of the sea water is actually accompanied by the tranquility of the sky and the atmosphere, showing a "spring" tranquility.

On this day, the world gained a long-lost peace, but a being far greater than this planet left here.

When he left this world, he left behind the metal spear.

In Li Qi's deduction, this spear would lead this indigenous race to the path of civilization, eventually leading to the birth of a primitive feudal dynasty.

Well, this must also be part of the other party's calculations.

As for the fate of the dynasty, it depends on future generations.

After Zhongweiniao left this world, he did not even say hello to Li Qi, and his body directly transformed into his 'body'.

It is not suitable to say that it is the true body. For the third grade, the true body is a metaphysical existence. This is just his original body as a medium-sized bird.

His body diffused into certain subtleties that Li Qi would miss even if he didn't look carefully. It quickly rose and fell into the surrounding gravitational circle like a tide, and then converged again.

Just like that, he seemed to have established connections with many places.

Then, Zhongweiniao transformed into the human race of the world again and looked at Li Qi: "What you want is your Dao Yun, right? I asked, and it is true that someone gave you a wisp a long time ago. And we have others too.”

Li Qi raised his hand: "Thank you, so how can I get it?"

"Go and get it directly. It's natural for you to take such trouble to help me that you should get some reward. That thing is of no use if we leave it in our hands. It's better to give it to you directly, but... you are very good at dealing with demonic thoughts." Zhongweiniao Said this suddenly.

"Well... I can't say that he is very good at it. He is just a doctor after a long illness." Li Qi said.

"The method is very clever, but... it has limited effect on me, but it has also helped to a certain extent. Thank you very much." Zhongweiniao said.

"As long as I can help." Li Qi nodded.

Although he knew that the other party actually didn't come out at all, it was just a courtesy thank you.

"It did help. So, I have a question that I'm curious about." Zhongweiniao looked at Li Qi with a serious expression: "My demonic thoughts were generated during this retrospective. So, where did you know of my existence?”

"The Realm of Desire, I got a new clue from the destruction of the Realm of Desire, about all the third-grade demonic thoughts." Li Qi said.

"Oh... that's really a coincidence." Zhongweiniao nodded slightly and stopped talking.

This dialogue is the only meaningful sentence in more than a hundred years.

Li Qi also stopped talking. He had gotten what he wanted, and he had also received the other party's warning.

You are in the middle of the situation and don’t know the situation. When you know it, you are already an outsider.

However, for the third grade, this kind of impact should not be a big deal, they can recover quickly.

It's just... what happened to the third-grade Zhongwei Bird that Li Qi found?

Li Qi actually didn't know, but it was obvious that the reshaping of the universe had caused him to give up very important things, causing demonic thoughts to grow and become uncontrollable.

What Li Qi did was actually teach the other party his method of controlling demonic thoughts. The four hundred years of getting along with each other was not just about doing nothing, but also a subtle influence on each other.

Finally, Li Qi himself used the information from the Desire Realm as a guarantee.

That's enough, the deal has been reached, or... at least we have the most basic friendship.

Thinking like this, the other party disappeared.

Li Qi also disappeared without a trace, and he went to the nest of the Zhongwei birds.

The next moment, the Zhongwei Birds, who had already received the news, also took action.

Li Qi witnessed the real 'civilization' of the Zhongwei Birds.

How to describe it?

It is completely different from the life of ordinary people. It is indeed a high-level civilization that is completely different from the rest of the world.

At first glance, Li Qi seemed unable to understand the other party's way of living.

Their daily routine is to simply rotate around the gravity of the star, and they seem to get enough fun from it.

However, this behavior will greatly affect the world, because their rotation can easily propel entire galaxies to nearly the speed of light, and they enjoy the interactions and ripples in space and time that are generated in this way.

It's like a person enjoying the wind blowing on his face.

They are constantly igniting stars, accelerating changes in gravitational wells, and even causing stars to explode. This can produce a large number of gravitational waves, which are so-called ripples in space-time.

They float in the universe riding on the ripples of time and space, as cheerful as real birds.

If you just look at ordinary mesozoans, you will find that they are quite clumsy. Because they are too fast and do not interact, they appear bulky. However, whenever strong gravitational waves hit, they gain a brisk speed. Vitality is like a seagull awakened by the wind.

Mesozoic birds bump and jump on the waves of gravitational waves in their own unique way, which is more dexterous and lighter than some carefully manufactured spaceships.

Seeing that figure, it is easy to understand why the powerful ones named them "Medium Birds".

It is indeed a figure like a bird and a fish, but it is a pity that mortals cannot see it.

They could only see waves of super-powerful energy erupting at nearly the speed of light, with flashes of light clearly visible billions of light-years away.

But they couldn't see the tiny birds riding on such majestic waves and soaring among them as they pleased.

Of course, such an action is bound to cause a lot of damage, because the mesozoans don't care about the situation of mortals. Their hilarious behavior will detonate the star, which will naturally affect the surrounding planets.

What's more, the collapse of some massive stars can even cause supernova explosions, which will destroy all mortals within tens of light years in a straight line, and even fifth-grade stars will be directly exploded.

This thing is second only to Quasar Sword Qi.

However, a supernova explosion that is enough to kill the fifth grade is just a burst of joyful wind to the medium and small birds, and its level is just as exciting as riding a roller coaster.

Because matter and energy can hardly affect them, they do not interact with ordinary matter at all, and the only thing that can affect them is the gravitational field.

Therefore, the gravitational field is everything the mesobirds have, and gravitational fluctuations are all their perceptions. The mesobirds essentially live in a universe with nothing but ripples of time and space.

Their civilization seems to have always been filled with a touch of loneliness and self-entertainment.

Although self-entertainment is likely to lead to the extinction of other life, in the eyes of the mesozoans, they can't even see it. It can't interact with light, and naturally it can't interact with various electromagnetics. The universe is in their eyes. It was empty.

Therefore, they have their own unique understanding of the meaning of 'existence'.

When Zhongweiniao's cultivation gradually grows and they can master special techniques of change or simply modify their own life essence, they will attract the first wave of impact on the Taoist heart.

The universe turns out to be so dense and intense.

And I am out of place.

This is also a unique feeling of higher civilizations, just like the human race in the world.

The human race in the world is actually better than the special race of Zhongwei Bird. They will also feel similar, not lonely, but 'special'.

The human race in the world is the group closest to Haotian. They have been practicing for thousands of miles and are born with shortcuts. Humanoids in other worlds have difficulty in comprehending the 'Tao in water and fire'. How can they understand the natural world? This principle is completely incomprehensible in the eyes of the human race in the world.

In the eyes of the people of the world, feeling the five elements is simply instinct. If the people of the world are dragged to certain ninth-level worlds, they will even have one more sense to perceive fluctuations than others.

Not to mention the inner world that is so perfect that it can be said to be a 'shortcut'. It is extremely fast to practice any method. It can also build a virtual machine internally and store magic and energy in it.

Ordinary races have long been crying.

The human race in the world, if I must say it, is that the natives of the fairy world are essentially different from ordinary people. Their inner world is much more perfect than others.

Li Qi felt the giant gravitational ring built by the medium and small birds.

This giant gravitational ring is like a giant attractor...

No, this is the source of great attraction.

They were using a giant source to seal something, and it was something Li Qi wanted.
