The phantom flows, and the light and shadow intertwine. It didn't mean that based on that drop of blood, thousands of scenes evolved.
From the birds in the sky in the distance, to the glorious Heavenly Palace nearby, to the disciples and servants in the Heavenly Palace, and to the immortals and gods, all these...all of these are taken from the memory of the blood master. The? Scene.
And some of these scenes are blurry and some are clear, depending on the depth of the memory of the dead fairy god.
The Tiangong is majestic and vast, like a series of mountains hanging in the sky. There is a square market, a cold pond, a book pavilion, and a square. There are people coming and going in the square city, and there are people meditating in the cold pool. Competing sword fights, evolving fairy arts, people talking and laughing loudly, and flying cranes coming... Even though many details are blurred, most people's facial features are still hazy, but it is still very lively.
I didn't want to move forward in a leisurely way, but walked along the clear surroundings? The depths of the palace, only to feel that the surrounding
Then, he heard a majestic voice whispering slowly, the voice seemed to contain all kinds of rhymes:
"If a person with form is born from formlessness, then heaven and earth will live in peace? Therefore, it is said: There is Taiyi, there is Taichu, there is Taishi, and there is Taisu. Those who are Taiyi have not seen Qi: yin and yang have not changed, and the desert is too empty. No light, no form, no form, no name..."①
Yuan didn't want to stop and look around, but saw about twenty people sitting in a very simple palace. It seemed that a fairy god was teaching his disciples.
On the top of the futon is a "young man" dressed in a crane cloak, floating in the dust. He wears a Taoist robe, holds a volume of Taoist scriptures in his hand, and is dressed as a Taoist priest. His dark pupils contain divine light, his skin is like jade, and there are some mysterious divine patterns on his forehead, which are clearly different from ordinary people. He should be a natural immortal. god.
Seeing this person's appearance, didn't he suddenly? Suddenly.
This is obviously the immortal slough that I saw before, and now all these pictures are derived from the memory of the other party. Could it be that he is the master of the cave here
I didn't want to look at other people, but I saw a group of men and women sitting scatteredly on more than a dozen futons at the bottom. From the appearance, there were juveniles and old people, all of whom were concentrating and paying attention. Listen to teaching.
And these "people", just looking at their appearance, also have more or less mystical features, which are different from the human race, and there are still a few "people" who clearly have the characteristics of demons.
The only one who looks no different from ordinary people is the "boy" sitting in the corner. He is wearing the most ordinary coarse linen clothes. Although the weaving is extremely delicate, it is still difficult to hide the material. Ordinary and simple, his appearance is extremely outstanding. , even three points more beautiful than women? While the other people were listening to the fairy god's sermon with enthralled faces, he was a bit confused and anxious, sweating on his forehead.
Soon, the surrounding scenes changed, everything disappeared like clouds and smoke, and it was like a movie fast-forwarding. The fairy left after preaching.
This young man who fell in the corner also held up the book of Taoism and asked others for advice one by one. Although his attitude was sincere, the others gradually became impatient, and a few arrogant? boys? girls showed disdain.
"Yu, what are you asking so much for? What, it's just a waste of hard work. Do you still want to cultivate immortality and live forever?"
"Exactly. I waited for my spirituality to be natural, with extraordinary feet, and then I was lucky enough to enter the Miaozhen Cave, become a master and pass on the law of longevity. Your human race is born weak and weak, with low aptitude. If it wasn't for the catastrophe? How can you, the son of a vassal of the human race, be equal to me as a master?"
"... There are many princes of the human race. For a candidate like you, there are as many as two fingers in the rest of the cave. You have this opportunity, so you should work hard to stand out and become the only candidate. Not only will you honor the face of the master, but if you can If you win the catastrophe, you will also have the opportunity to become the emperor, even if you can't enjoy immortality, you can still enjoy the wealth and honor in the world."
"That's the reason. You don't want to be obsessed with the mysteries of Taoism all day long, and end up putting the cart before the horse and being completely out of the game."
In the "warning" of all the senior brothers and sisters, the boy in rough linen cloth turned red, as if he was ashamed, but he held the Taoist book in his hand even tighter, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I have failed my senior brothers and sisters!" It's kind, it's just that the Taoism of the Immortal Family is infinitely mysterious, I really yearn for it."
The others all sighed, also showing envy and longing? Some people said bluntly:
"To be honest, with your rotten wood-like talent, the immortality is far away, so don't think about it."
After saying a few words like this, seeing the young man standing upright on the spot, with his head lowered all the time, as if he had been hit by a blow, and his soul was wandering away, the others gradually dispersed.
"...Yu? Later? Human Emperor Yu?"
The surrounding scene seemed to be blurred again, why didn't he turn half a circle around the boy and click his tongue lightly.
... Miaozhendongtian? Tentatively, the master of the cave just now is called Taoist Miaozhen, and Ren Huangyu seems to be his disciple, so this is a clichéd story of a disciple killing his teacher
Just looking at the scene in front of him, he almost thought that what he was seeing was the deepest memory in Ren Huangyu's heart.
But since the drop of blood belonged to Taoist Miaozhen, and these scenes evolved according to Taoist Miaozhen's memory, it means that what happened just now was silently taken into the eyes of this immortal and stored in his memory.
It is not surprising that the gods and gods can see everything, but these little things don't seem to be enough to impress a god so deeply. It can only be said that most of this is the daily life here, and it happens every day.
Yuan Buwei gradually sketched some scenes in his mind.
Fairy gods and demons use the whole world as a chessboard to compete for qi and numbers, so the masters cultivated by both sides are shogi. The young Yu Yu was selected as one of more than a dozen candidates. Although he joined Taoist Miaozhen's sect, he was definitely out of tune with other disciples, and his talent was not outstanding, so he had to work hard all day long and practice painstakingly...
Just as he was thinking this way, he didn't catch a glimpse of Yu Yu who kept his head down as if he was in a state of despair from the corner of his eye. Suddenly his heart moved, and he raised his hand to flick it. The young man's drooping head immediately seemed to be pressed by a force. Lift up and show your face.
The expression on his face was blurred, and he couldn't tell the difference!
interesting! This memory is from the perspective of Taoist Miaozhen. Everything before was so real and delicate, yet he couldn't see Yu's expression at that time clearly, which shows that Taoist Miaozhen didn't notice these details, or subconsciously ignored them.
Yuan Buwei stretched out his palm, and slowly brushed across the blurred face from the air, as if to wipe off the dust stained on the mirror and restore its original appearance.
Gradually, the details that were neglected by Taoist Miaozhen's subconscious surfaced, and the blurred face gradually showed more features and expressions.
This is an extremely silent and calm? Face, the facial lines are tight, the lips are pursed into a line, as calm and expressionless as a stubborn stone. Only one pair of pupils glowed with brilliance, like an endless embers, burning quietly.
Not only is there no half-battered self-ashamedness, but it is full of extreme perseverance, determination, and stubbornness.
Even if there is no expression on the face, these eyes have already revealed all the emotions.
I didn't feel familiar in the trance.
"... It seems like an old friend came." He suddenly sighed, and then thought of the raving left by the Taoist Miaozhen before his death, "I... seem to understand something. So it's me!"
"Me?" Before the word fell, he suddenly pointed out.
The void seemed to be collapsing in an instant, and streams of air flow surrounded the fingertips, forming a turbulent vortex from small to large.
The surrounding scene that had gradually become blurred seemed to be frozen in an instant. In the distant sky, the projection of a long river of time slowly emerged, and the sound of flowing water passed by his ears. Countless scenes in front of my eyes began to fluctuate like water, and there was a strong resistance between the sky and the earth.
If it is said that it was just a picture in the memory of Taoist Miaozhen, then in the sound of the gurgling water, these scenes have a little more "texture", as if they are about to change from virtual to real.
The force from the river of time crushed down. It was not because there seemed to be an invisible mountain on the back. The waist was slightly bent a few degrees, and then slowly straightened again.
And a speck of light flew out from his fingertips and plunged into the vortex.
Suddenly, there was an imperceptible sound, as if a small stone had been thrown into the river.
Then there was the continuous sound of running water. It seemed that since the small stone entered the water, it had caused a series of turmoil. Little waves continued to accumulate, setting off huge waves, which turned into torrents and swept from the upper reaches. And down.
The world was silent.
In the upper reaches of the River of Time in this world, at a certain point in time thousands of years ago, a big star suddenly appeared in the daytime, and an invisible brilliance that others could not see fell from the sky, dressed in coarse linen The young man will walk out of the cave not far away, and the brilliance will fall into his arms.
Immediately, all kinds of supernatural powers and supernatural powers, including those of the human dynasty, exploded in his mind like countless light spots.
·
Inside the Miaozhen Cave, the sound of the River of Time gradually disappeared from the ears of the original, and the seemingly real and illusory scenes around gradually faded and became blurred again.
Because Yuan Buwei suddenly went back to the river of time unexpectedly, and dropped a "golden finger" to the past time node. Under the turbulence of the surrounding space, the memory image that could have continued to look down suddenly Fragmented.
Ever since, the dilapidated heaven and earth reappeared in front of Yuan Buwei's eyes, the sloughs of immortals lay on the ground, the stars dimmed, the Milky Way stopped flowing, and the ruins of the Heavenly Palace stretched like mountains.
He stood there quietly, exhaling lightly.
The system 999, which was imprisoned in a small black room for no reason, was suddenly pulled back for no reason. Just as he was about to cry out for injustice, he suddenly got a jolt, and felt that there was an inexplicable aura in the host that made him not dare to offend.
In short, the current host seems to be quite difficult to provoke. If it had met such a host for the first time, it wouldn't have dared to kidnap someone even if it had ten guts!
[Weird...] System 999 muttered quietly.
But Yuan Buwei stretched out suddenly, with a slightly lazy smile on his face again, as if nothing happened, and he was about to leave.
While walking, he did not forget to sort out his thoughts.
"The way of time, space and cause and effect is really strange. According to what is known, it is a certainty that the Human Emperor won at the beginning. This is why the Great Xia Dynasty ruled by the human race is now, and there is Xie Yuan in the trajectory of fate. Waiting for someone's entanglement... If I? Never came to this world, it should be like this. According to this principle, if I? Don't make a move, the Human Emperor should win. Then the original? How did he fight back? ?Woolen cloth?"
"... No. If I don't come, what is the fate of this world should be unknown?"
A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and Yuan Buwei suddenly said: "999, what mechanism did you choose to cross over? Did you detect the villain first and then enter the world, or did you detect the villain after entering the world?"
System 999 was stunned for a moment, and replied inexplicably: [Of course, it is first to check who the villain is. Outside of the small world, there is no way to detect the fate of the small world. For example, this time, the system first entered this small world, began to explore the trajectory of fate, and then discovered that Xie Yuan's soul had left, and then possessed it.]
"I see. I? I see."
Yuan Buwei had a happy smile on his lips.
When he was in other worlds in the past, he never thought of this, because he never changed the past destiny of other worlds, only the future was changed. Therefore, he always thought that the trajectory of fate detected by the system 999 was the trajectory of his own destiny before he came.
Even System 999 thinks so
And now it seems that is not quite the case.
From the moment he arrived, the fate of this world has begun to change. He is the biggest variable.
For example, when Ren Huangyu was born, he had to intervene—and this was inevitable. Even if he did not choose to possess Xie Yuan, but Wang Yuan, Zhang Yuan, Qi Yuan, anyone in this world, he would eventually choose to help Yu when he came into contact with the "truth of the past".
Therefore, the fate of this world in the past was determined by him, and humanity suppressed both immortals and monsters; thus, the human race prospered; thus, there was the prosperity of the Great Xia Dynasty, and there were the people behind Li Mo, Yuhua, Xie Yuan and others. ? The battle of the three qi numbers.
— That is to say, from the moment when Yuan Buwei came to this world, the past destiny of this world has been influenced by him and become a fixed number.
But before he possessed Xie Yuan, Xie Yuan's fate belonged to him, so what Xie Yuan saw was his own tragic future. What System 999 detected is also Xie Yuan's fate.
Using the phrase "Schrödinger's cat" that he once heard in the scientific world, if he didn't come to this world, then what is the fate of this world is unknown to him. .
Maybe thousands of years ago, the immortal way was prosperous, but now there are immortal cultivators everywhere in the world, maybe the demons turned defeat into victory, and they have already caused troubles in the world...
Suddenly want to understand these, the original is not because of the lips? The smile can't help getting bigger and bigger. At this moment, he seemed to have a deeper understanding of time, space, cause and effect, fate and the like.
"The great way is fifty, the Tianyan is fourty-nine, let's go to one. It seems that I am the "one" of this variable. "
The author has something to say:
The old man, after reading the director's article, can probably guess that it is Jhin. For readers who don't know, let me just say that because of Yu, the protagonist thinks of a friend Jin he once knew, so he helps out.
①From "Liezi" and "Dao Fa Hui Yuan", deleted and miscellaneous.
In addition, I don't know if the explanation is clear enough. The fate trajectory detected by the system each time is actually not before the protagonist's arrival, but after the protagonist's arrival. Because if the protagonist hadn't come, he wouldn't know the fate of this world, and since he came, he had already started to participate in the trajectory of fate as a variable.
It's just that every time it detects, the protagonist has not yet determined the object of possession, so it shows the original fate of the original body. (But in fact, this is after the protagonist has changed. Otherwise, maybe this world is not a place where the human race is prosperous at all, maybe there is no such person as Xie Yuan at all.)
[Equivalent to, before the protagonist enters, the fate of this world is text a. The moment he enters, the past changes, and text a is replaced by text b from beginning to end. The moment he possesses Xie Yuan, the future changes, and the fate of this world became the text bc.]
[The first few worlds have no intermediate steps, no text b, and the past remains unchanged. When the protagonist possesses the villain, the future changes, and the trajectory of fate directly changes from a to ac.]
It may be a bit complicated, but don't worry, it's just that this world is special, and the following world should be the same as the previous worlds, only changing the future.
In fact, you don't need to read my words, you may understand that it will give you a headache. The reason for the explanation is to consider that some readers may ask questions—
Seeing that he would be taken away by Li Mo in the future, Xie Yuan ran away, and then the protagonist entered his body. This was his original destiny. And Li Mo seized the human body to practice because the Human Emperor cut off the Dao of Demons and Demons back then.
Inferring from this logic, doesn't it mean that even without the help of the protagonist, in the original trajectory of fate, the Human Sovereign will also get a chance for other reasons, strong enough to suppress the fairy demon? Isn't the protagonist's actions superfluous
If it is because of the protagonist's help that the Human Sovereign can suppress the Fairy Demon, without the protagonist's help, Yu would not be strong enough to fight against the Fairy Demon, and would not even be able to become the Human Sovereign. So before the protagonist came to this world, how did the powerful human dynasty continue in the original destiny trajectory of this world? The first chapter at the beginning of this volume, shouldn't there be immortals, gods and demons everywhere
That's why I explained the logic clearly—
There is no "original trajectory of fate before the arrival of the protagonist". Before the protagonist came, the world was like a closed black box, and we didn't know what the fate trajectory was like; but after he came, the fate changed because of him. For example, Daxing Humanity.
The fate trajectory detected by the system 999 is all after the protagonist's arrival, not before the protagonist's arrival. It’s just because it detects when the protagonist is not yet possessed, so it shows the fate of the original Xie Yuan (and Xie Yuan’s fate is hidden in the background of Daxing Humanity, which is the moment when the protagonist arrives. changed destiny).
