If the world wants to improve, it will harvest strong human beings so that it can integrate all the power and evolve into a stronger world
Are human warriors actually just gu insects trapped in the consciousness of the world
Lu Li didn't know what to say for a moment.
The emotional side told myself not to listen to Pope Shenhua. This lunatic who dared to cut his consciousness into countless parts could never be trusted. However, the rational side is telling himself that at least 80% of what Pope Shenhua said is true.
How much energy is needed for a world to advance
And where does this energy come from? The aura of heaven and earth
Now that he has become Grandmaster Mingyou, he has a clearer understanding of martial arts. From spiritual energy to true energy, it is actually a process of energy purification. Even the power of breaking the Yuan, which can only be understood by heavenly and human-level experts, and the golden energy cultivated by the fundamental method, are actually a kind of "spiritual energy of heaven and earth". Purify.
So what is the essence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth
Where does it come from? From the world itself
Why does the world itself release the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to provide training for the human race, so that the human race can continuously give birth to strong men
Since the world itself is conscious, this kind of pure 'sacrifice for others' obviously does not conform to the logic of a self-awareness. Although it is impossible to use the logic of the human race to substitute the logic of thinking about a world, the "self" mentioned by Pope Shenhua at the beginning may be to pave the way for the current topic.
He knows very well what kind of concept self is.
Self is actually selfishness.
This is true for the human race, and it is also true for the alien races outside the world.
The same is true even for heavenly beings whose life levels have evolved.
Who can be sure that world consciousness with the concept of self will be completely selfless
"I know you won't believe what I say. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. Because this is the truth. Although it is very cruel, the fact will not change."
Pope Shenhua said lightly: "Some people discovered this among the ancient human race tens of thousands of years ago. For the world consciousness itself, the human race is a group of Gu insects. After tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years of reproduction, Later, when human martial arts are at their most prosperous, the spiritual energy surges, and the world consciousness will take back everything."
"So, in that ancient era, someone sealed off the road to martial arts and built the Gate of Heaven and Man. It cut off the passage between the true martial arts domain and the outside world, and also cut off the possibility for warriors to quickly improve their realm."
Lu Li frowned slightly. He didn't expect that the Shenhua Pope actually knew about the Gate of Heaven and Man.
But what he said was somewhat different from what he saw from the Divine Killing Seal.
Jingqian built the Gate of Heaven and Humanity to seal the path of martial arts. His original intention was to protect the Zhenwu Domain and the human race from being discovered by powerful people from outside the world. Although it is true that it prevents the improvement of the character of the Zhenwu Realm, from a certain perspective, this has nothing in common with the statement of the Shenhua Pope.
Pope Shenhua’s point of view is that there is great malice in world consciousness. It treats the human race as a worm in captivity. When the status of the world can be improved, the consciousness of the world will harvest everything the human race gets from it.
Jingqian created the Gate of Heaven and Humanity to isolate the martial arts, mainly to protect the human race and at the same time protect the true martial arts domain.
He didn't seem to notice anything unusual about the Zhenwu Realm, and his starting point was not to treat the world consciousness of the Zhenwu Realm as a very malicious existence to guard against.
So when Pope Shenhua mentioned the Gate of Heaven and Man, Lu Li felt like he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Should he believe everything he saw in the Divine Killing Seal, or should he believe the one-sided words of Pope Shenhua
This thought just flashed through his mind, and Lu Li said in a deep voice: "To be honest, I don't believe you. If according to what you said, the world consciousness has spent so much effort to cultivate those strong people just to be able to fight at the last moment. What will be the consequences of harvesting the strong men of the human race? What will be the consequences of harvesting these warriors?"
"Whether it's taking away power or life, with the current situation in the Zhenwu Domain, the aura of heaven and earth covers the entire world. Even those humans who have never practiced martial arts will be strong and live longer because of the warmth and nourishment of the aura of heaven and earth. . Is this part also what the world consciousness will take back?"
Lu Li stared at Shenhua Pope and said, "If even this part of the power is to be withdrawn, wouldn't the Zhenwu Realm become a dead world?"
"That's right."
Pope Shenhua smiled and said: "The consequences of the world's consciousness taking back everything will be the end of the world. Don't you understand? To the world's consciousness, intelligent life like human race is simply insignificant. Even the longest human history, in The concept of world consciousness may have gone through the process from establishment to destruction in less than a blink of an eye.”
"How long is the history of human martial arts? Thirty thousand years, fifty thousand years, or even one hundred thousand years?"
"This period of time that seems to us to be extremely long, in the perception of world consciousness, is actually like sleeping. It does not care about how many lives were born during this process, let alone the establishment of these lives. What kind of civilization has it created? The only thing it cares about is whether the 'gu insects' are mature."
"Think about it, it's like if you plant a fruit tree, it may bloom and bear fruit after you sleep. And all you have to do is pick the fruit and eat it after you wake up. Even if it is Your actions were a bit rough and destroyed the whole tree, but you only need to plant another one and wait one night. At this time, do you still care about the life and death of this tree? "
After hearing Pope Shenhua's explanation, Lu Li fell silent.
yes.
For the world consciousness itself, intelligent life like human race may be nothing more than fruit. The history and civilization of humankind are just like a tree that blossoms and bears fruit. No matter how long this tree has existed in the sense of time, and how many hardships it has gone through to grow into what it is today, to the world itself, it is just an accidental mature episode in a sleep that is not long. .
Whether it is tens of thousands of years or hundreds of thousands of years, if it is destroyed this time, a new civilization and a new 'tree' will always be born in the future.
"It's very desperate."
"Sometimes the truth is so disappointing."
Pope Shenhua changed his posture and said calmly: "Lu Li, not everyone is born a bad person. I once loved this world with all my heart, and like you, I regarded all those who tried to harm this world as enemies. . However, a long time will eventually change a person’s mind. When I learned the true face of this world, I was also very disappointed.”
"If this is the price of knowing the truth, I would rather know nothing."
"Unfortunately, there is no possibility of regret in this world."
"Don't you want to know what the meaning of artificial life is?" Pope Shenhua said this, slowly stood up, stared at Lu Li and said: "Artificial life is to save more lives."
"If the cultivation of warriors depends on the 'giving' of the world's consciousness, then powerful artificial life forms are like poisons attached to the world. Their strength depends on 'predating'."
"Artificial martial spirits, artificial heavenly beings, and even artificial gods. The more powerful the life created by the divine religion, the weaker the consciousness of the world."
"You think I want to destroy the world, you are wrong."
Pope Shenhua sighed: "Actually, the Shen Cult and I really want to save this world."
"But as I said, in the long years, people will always lose themselves. Maybe the goal of saving the world is too ambitious, and it is not that easy to be a god on earth, so whenever I see the world The ugliness of people will become more extreme. There will be an idea in my heart that maybe ruling the world is more suitable for me than saving the world."
"This is also the meaning of my existence, to get everything back on track before I lost control last time."
After saying this, Pope Shenhua stopped talking and looked at him silently, as if waiting for Lu Li to digest this information.
Lu Li didn't say anything, just asked: "Your story is very convincing, and the details in it can withstand scrutiny. However, this is not enough to convince me. If there is no better reason, I think that sooner or later, I will be with the Cult." There is still a battle to be fought. As for whether I will kill you or another you then, it depends on how long it will take for you to 'lose control'."
