Human nature is imperfect, that's why it's called a sub-gene creature. As Xiao Jinzi said, the biggest difference between personality and godhead is the inevitable weakness of personality. People can evolve very high-end powers, but weaknesses will always follow them, bringing about corruption and cowardice.
As strong as Lao Li, even a small amount of gold can't bear with a very slow punch. When faced with the image of Chen Miao transformed by the evil spirit, he couldn't help but feel ripples in his heart, and finally felt a trace of hesitation. Although it was only a moment, it was enough for the Sky Evil to launch a wave of violent attacks.
The terrifying cold evil energy swept and surrounded Li Muye in an instant, and the ghost claws were thick. The evil spirit released the evil force barrier and launched countless attacks on Old Li, who was as motionless as a wooden body and clay sculpture. The devil's claws used their maximum power to attack Lao Li. Perhaps Li Qizhi himself didn't expect to succeed so smoothly, so much so that he actually let out a strange shout of excitement.
The will-o'-the-wisp fills the air, seeming to burn and corrode everything. A voice suddenly came from the fire: "Teacher, are you enough?"
Li Qizhi, who had lost his humanity after transforming into a demon, stopped all his movements and looked at the naked old Li in surprise. The muscles all over his body were corroded terribly, but they were quickly regenerated.
What a terrifying regenerative ability this is. The evil man was secretly horrified.
His fire is the evil backfire, which is the negative energy generated from the source of life and represents his depraved, desperate and murderous side. Because it targets the power of life source, it is definitely not comparable to ordinary material force. Ordinary people who are awakened by the Force will immediately fall into the abyss of endless despair if they are contaminated even a little bit, and they will die a violent death. The reason why he dared to stay and challenge Lao Li was because of this trump card.
"If possible, I really don't want to come back to my senses." Li Muye's voice was full of sadness and nostalgia: "I really miss her!"
Li Qizhi said: "It turns out that I am not the only one who has changed. You have changed even more than me." After a pause, he continued: "It is impossible for those who have not lost their humanity to resist my evil evil. Only divinity Only then can we get out of that endless abyss.”
"Unfortunately, I have only changed half." Li Muye sighed: "I really want to die in your hands, but it's a pity that the other me doesn't agree."
"You can't kill me." Li Qizhi said: "Even if your other personality has completely evolved into a godhead, you can't even think of killing me completely!"
"Why do I have to kill you?" Li Muye said, "You were once my teacher. There is no need for me to become your enemy."
"I have become a demon!" Li Qizhi said: "You are half human and half god, but I am a complete demon with instincts that I cannot control myself. If you don't kill me now, one day when I am strong enough They will also come and try to kill you."
"Teacher Li, there are fewer and fewer people that I can remember and care about now." Li Muye said: "I want to keep something, but I can't stop the fact that I am becoming more and more ruthless. Maybe there are One day, whether you become a god or a demon, it will be the same to me. Until that day comes, I want to try to be a mortal as much as possible."
"You have awakened the energy of the source of life, but you don't want to evolve into a higher level of life?" Li Qizhi's eyes showed surprise: "Li Muye, are you crazy? Do you know how many lives have been competing on this road throughout the ages? Chasing, in order to achieve the goal, I would like to trample all competitors to death. In order to set foot in that field, how many people are desperate and will not recognize their relatives in the hopeless situation, just to cut off all earthly ties, and you... "
"Teacher Li, let's go." Li Muye suddenly lost interest and waved his hand: "Believe me, don't take such a risk next time. Your power of telepathy is not as powerful as you thought."
"What's the meaning?"
"Don't ask. Anyway, just live a good life and chase what you want to chase." Li Muye said, "Next time we meet, it may not be me you meet again."
Li Qizhi looked solemn, suddenly realized, and then turned into billowing black wind and fled hastily.
Li Muye looked at the direction in which he disappeared, with his head lowered in thought, his expression calm, and his eyes did not contain any emotion. The clenched fist slowly opened, and a ball of black fire danced in the palm. Is this what the other side of the source of life looks like? This kind of negative energy that exists in every living being does not seem to be as scary as imagined.
He made a fist with his left hand, and soon a ball of light lit up. The right hand holds the black fire. When the black fire rises, hundreds of thoughts will flood your mind, including greed, anger, and delusion. The sadness, despair, anger, and desire for destruction surged up in my heart like an explosion. Make him feel the desire inside him. At this time, the white light in his left hand lit up, and the haze in his heart was swept away. A warm and carefree feeling filled his mind, and it seemed that his whole body became light, as if he was about to ride on the wind.
At this moment, Li Muye suddenly realized, feeling sad and happy at the same time.
The source of life is not static, it can exist in two forms: tangible and intangible. The light of life has form and form, and represents the divine aspect of the source of life. The darkness of life has form but no form, representing the other side of the demonic nature of the source of life. There are seven emotions and six desires in life. Joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and surprise are the seven emotions. Eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind are the six desires. The former is the enemy of divinity, but the latter is the source of demonic nature, tempting life to develop seven-emotional feelings and stay away from divinity.
The source of life gives life all its instinctive desires. Whether it is becoming a god or a demon, it is equivalent to awakening the energy of the source of life. Xiao Jinzi represents the bright side of the source of life, while Li Qizhi, who incarnates as a demon, represents the dark side. The instinct of light is generation and fusion, reproduction and creation. And darkness is killing and lust, destruction and death. The former is holy but the most ruthless, the latter is dirty and sentimental.
Born as a demon, died as a god. The dead and unawakened gods will return to the source of life in the universe, and the living beings that are still alive will always be demons. Once you awaken to the bright side of the source of life, you will initially have the ability to integrate and plunder the invisible side of the source of life in other people or other substances. Awakening the dark side of the source of life is equivalent to having the ability to destroy and devour the tangible side of the source of life of others. If any form of life source is deprived, life cannot continue to survive.
In the battle just now, the Heavenly Evil took advantage of Li Muye's human weakness, took advantage of it, and almost destroyed Li Muye's body. But the divine Lao Li took action at the critical moment, stopped him, and used his bright heart to fuse the elements of all things to reorganize his body. Li Qizhi's power of evil is limited, and he is no match for the divine Old Li with complete divinity. But the dark power of the source of life he exerted on Lao Li helped him awaken the other side of the source of life. And communication is one of the instincts of the Quantum Demon.
So now Lao Li has realized the divine life source in his spiritual realm, but his body has awakened the demonic life source.
Just go on living with the emotions of love and hate. Li Muye said to himself in his heart.
The next moment, the light in his left hand and the black fire in his right hand disappeared.
Life in Zhige City is as calm as water, safe and free but tasteless. Many animals appear in the life zone, and abundant rain makes crops grow vigorously. As long as the residents of the city are willing to work, it is not difficult to fill their stomachs.
Hungry people have no thoughts. People only have so many emotional needs when they are well fed and worry-free. Commonly known as being full after eating.
Residents complained that life in Zhige City was poor and boring, and began to envy the outside world, where they could enjoy everything without having to work. At first, they just suggested that the city lord bring in some modern things to facilitate everyone's life. After being rejected, they became dissatisfied. In their spare time, they contacted each other to discuss how to overturn Lao Li's rules.
moment.
They came here because they could not accept the strict rules of the artificial intelligence government and were unable to fight. Now they cannot stand the poverty and loneliness here, so they want to try to fight against Lao Li's rules.
Lao Li does not prevent anyone from leaving, but those who choose to stay must abide by the rules of Zhige City. For him, absorbing other people's beliefs and devouring the physical form of other people's life sources is no longer a matter of hesitation. The divinity is too ruthless, and has natural psychological advantages and absolute suppression over low-level life forms. The devil is selfish and passionate. As long as it is not something he cares about, there is nothing he cannot give up.
Finally, someone asked Li Muye to leave Zhige City. But just when Lao Li said that he could not come back after leaving, these people immediately turned against each other, saying that Zhige City was the Zhige City for all people. Their relatives lived here, and of course they could return here at any time. . Since you, Boss Li, originally built this utopian home for the welfare of everyone, you should continue to protect it unconditionally today. Everyone's entry and exit should not be restricted.
This is the depraved side of human nature. You always feel that your decision is right, and you always only want to accept what you want to accept. Morality can only restrain the ideological consciousness from making mistakes, but it cannot restrain its instincts. These people have forgotten those sad days when they were hungry and cold and had no food to eat. They can't find an ideal life in Zhige City but they don't want to blame it on their own lack of hard work.
Wang Hongjun is right, some people are born to feed unfamiliar white-eyed wolves. When he said this to Lao Li that day, he was targeting Wang Hongye, who took the lead in looking for Lao Li today. Although they are cousins, Wang Hongjun is very disgusted with this girl's selfish, ruthless and domineering behavior.
Xiao Jinzi was watching the excitement and was not afraid of big troubles. He smiled and said to Lao Li, look, your Judas has appeared, and there will be more later. What follows is endless decadence and betrayal. The more love you give, the worse they will become of course. Apart from faith, I really can't think of any way to make these sub-gene creatures develop a personality that yearns for light. If you want them to believe in you, you must use punishment.
After returning from Baiyun City, Lao Li did not tell him about his encounter with the Quantum Demon. Although Xiao Jinzi seems simple, he is by no means simple. This guy treats ordinary humans, including those who have awakened with the Force, as if they are ants and aliens. But he can maintain awe when dealing with life forms of the same level. He is not foolhardy. It's just that ordinary humans have long disdained the use of strategies.
For the time being, he regarded Lao Li as an ally, and Lao Li was also trying to make friends with him. But at this stage, the friendship is not that strong. He is the awakener of the source of light, but Quantum Evil is the energy element formed from the dark side of the source of life. He and he were on the same level as each other. So Lao Li still can't let him know his secret.
The devil is selfish and sentimental, and only cares about what he cares about. Moreover, he likes the new and dislikes the old, and is cruel and bloodthirsty. Li Muye has never been an indecisive man and a believer. After being contaminated by the demonic nature of Quantum Demon, his inner world has become more indifferent. He has already been tempted to kill those who are unwilling to stand with him.
He verbally readily agreed to Wang Hongye's request, allowed her to take people out of Zhige City, and welcomed her back at any time.
Xiao Jinzi ridiculed that there is no need to use such tricks when dealing with a group of sub-gene creatures, simply summoning a heavenly punishment is enough. Lao Li responded with a smile, this is God's way of doing things, and I am still a human being. Xiao Jinzi might as well say teasingly, why resist? The implication is that since you have awakened the source of life, it is no longer possible to be like these sub-gene creatures. No matter how much you resist, the end result will not change.
Lao Li said, this is like a very interesting game, and I am a child participating in the game, trying my best to make the game last longer.
Xiao Jinzi asked: "So what are you going to do with these Judas?"
Lao Li did not answer directly, but asked: "You have done many experiments on human nature. In your opinion, do you think the only way to solve the problem is to kill all these people?"
"The real problem is corruption and betrayal." Xiao Jinzi said: "They will slide all the way to the abyss and be unable to return to the embrace of the light. For a high-level being who has awakened to the source of life, this is an unforgivable humiliation. It must be paid for with blood. Washing, from my experience, this is an inevitable trend." He added: "People will temporarily go to higher places under the constraints of morality and religion, but in the end they will not stay at high places forever, and water will move towards higher places. It gathers in low places, but eventually turns into steam and rises into the sky.”
"When people go to lower places, water flows to higher places?" Lao Li thought thoughtfully.
"This is the instinctive law of life." Xiao Jinzi said: "It is obviously easier to fall than to evolve towards the light."
"Have you never believed in humanity?"
"I have met countless of the most devout pope-level believers." Xiao Jinzi said: "When I was a teenager, my heart was bright, but as an adult, without exception, at a certain stage of my life, I chose to degenerate and surrender to money. Power and beauty are actually about surrendering to one’s own desires.”
"Religion has become a machine for you to harvest the source of life, and it has also become a tool for them to gain fame and fortune."
"Fame and wealth can make humanity lose its way, even go crazy, and it will eventually be sacrificed to dark instincts." Xiao Jinzi said: "If you are willing to explore, you will know that among these sub-gene creatures, behind every so-called powerful person in history There are countless dirty transactions and bloody killings hidden. What you call human civilization is a history of killing and depravity. You will reflect on it every time it is destroyed, but as long as your belly is not hungry and your body is not cold, these sub-gene creatures will He soon returned to his old ways.”
"So you're ready to end the world?"
"I can give you some face." Xiao Jinzi said, "You can keep whatever you want to protect."
"Actually, I really don't want to admit it, but in fact Zhige City is an experiment on human nature." Old Li said: "Judging from the current situation, you won."
"I have done similar experiments many times, with mice, ants, bees, poisonous snakes, and of course at most sub-gene humans." Xiao Jinzi said: "I sent bronze guardians to guide them towards the light, and also sent silver guardians. The guardians lead them to open up the path of spiritual evolution, but in the end, they disappoint me every time. They are short-sighted and impatient. When they achieve a little success, they will be arrogant and forget about it. They will first stay away from faith and then step into the abyss of depravity."
Lao Li sighed softly and asked, "Have you ever experienced so many civilizational eras without any exceptions?"
"Not once!" Xiao Jinzi said: "Whether it is a magical civilization, a technological civilization, or other eras of The Force Awakening, they have all fallen in the end. Every time, I will end everything before the Quantum Evil evolves among them." He Speaking of this, he sighed and said: "I just didn't expect that those barbarians from the Tianlong Clan would wander here and bring with them the evolved Quantum Heavenly Evil."
"If you have failed so many times, why do you continue again and again?"
"I need to harvest enough life source power, and I must create life again and again, let them evolve and become stronger while maintaining devout faith in me, and dedicate their life source energy to me. This process is like growing crops, but this kind of crops But it will evolve and deteriorate on its own. When the crops start to deteriorate, my faith will be shaken, and it will be difficult for me to harvest the pure source of life, so it is time to restart civilization."
"As far as I know, those Tianlong tribe also hold the key to restarting civilization." Old Li said: "Why did you cooperate with them before the end of the last civilization era and tolerate them until now?"
"That one is called Pangu
The Tianlong clan awakened to the force of chaos and determined to sacrifice themselves to trap the Quantum Evil. "Xiao Jinzi said: "The host of the Quantum Demon had a powerful talent for the force of time and space. It could not only block time and space, but even reverse time and space. That was an eleventh-level ability. Even I couldn't kill the monster completely. , Pangu made a huge sacrifice, and I promised him to enter a new round of dormancy and hand over this world to his descendants before waking up. "
"Is that why there are so many legends about evil dragons eating people in the East and West?"
"The Tianlong tribe is the most savage, greedy and warlike race in the universe that I know." Xiao Jinzi said: "The world is left to them to dominate, and it is not an accident that it has developed into today's situation. Qingdi Wanghuo, Baidi Xuanhao has wisdom beyond my expectation. Under their leadership, the east and west were separated. This guy Wanghuo also imitated my methods and created a bright Buddhism to harvest faith under the slogan of compassion and equality. , finally gained enough power to bring the Guixu Universe to this world."
"It turns out that Buddhism was created by the Celestial Dragon Clan. No wonder there are so many powerful Celestial Dragon Kings and Bodhisattvas in Buddhist scriptures." Old Li suddenly realized, and he said with all his family treasures: "Nanda Dragon King, Bananda Dragon King, Sakara Dragon King, and Xiuji Dragon King , Dragon King Deyijia, Dragon King Anavadatta, Dragon King Manas, Dragon King Fubola..." He suddenly paused at this point, with a cold light in his eyes, and said: "I hope you will get this good boy. deep!"
Xiao Jinzi said: "Yes, he has actually awakened the source of life."
"Whether it is the Buddha of Light or the God of Creation, they all follow the same routine. They first advertise justice and benevolence, and require believers to maintain absolute devout faith, otherwise they will become demons." Old Li said: "You are right, they are indeed Replicating your ways."
"Their tricks are much more vicious than mine." Xiao Jinzi said: "In the past two thousand years of the earth, billions of people have been deceived and believed in piety with the idea of not cultivating this life but cultivating the next. At the last moment of their lives, Dedicate all your life source energy.”
"The theory of reincarnation." Old Li said with deep approval: "It is indeed much more powerful than your theory of heaven."
Xiao Jinzi said: "Look, this is the weakness of human nature. They would rather be slaves of faith, waiting for others to take them out of the sea of suffering, than be the master of faith, but pursue their own bright heart."
"We have native Taoism in the east, which has driven the Tianlong people to the west for a long time. There have also been many powerful powers who have awakened high-level force."
"But in the end, they disappeared in the long river of history. Before the era of The Force Awakens, Eastern Buddhism was the largest religion." Xiao Jinzi said: "I recognize the value of Taoist thought, but seeking the Tao is an arduous road. , obviously does not apply to all living beings. The reason why the influence of better Taoism is much less than that of Buddhism is determined by the bad nature of sub-gene creatures that like to be idle and hate work."
"So you mean it's hopeless?"
"I mean, it's not just the few people who walked out of Zhige City." Xiao Jinzi said: "The whole world has fallen. I have decided to activate the civilization restart device on the Wuqi Country. Within the next ten years, The amount of water in this world will triple!"
Lao Li suddenly remembered a Western movie he had watched many years ago. In that movie, God was described as a blue-collar worker in a high-level life, building the solar system and the earth's ecological chain according to the design and construction of engineers. He pulled a water pipe from the universe to water the earth, eventually turning the earth into a water ball.
"What if I were to stop you from doing this?"
"What reason do you have to stop me?"
"Because I don't think the fall of man is a big fault."
"I can promise you that I will allow you to keep the humans you care about."
"You misunderstood." Old Li said: "I don't want to stop you because of the small group of people in Zhige City, but because I think there is still significance for human society to continue to evolve and develop."
"To be honest, I really want to see it with you, but unfortunately, we don't have much time." Xiao Jinzi said: "Before the noble army from the Pleiades cluster arrives, we must tell everything in this world to the Quantum Sky The marks related to evil must be wiped away, and the leaders of the aristocratic army cannot see that there is a dirty and degenerate sub-gene group on this planet. In the Pleiades star cluster, conducting this kind of civilization evolution experiment requires privileges."
"Is this why you want to spare Ouranos's life?" Old Li said: "You don't have such a privilege, but Ouranos does."
"This beast came from a very important noble family in the Pleiades star cluster." Xiao Jinzi said: "His family conquered my family. I was made into a human by it when I was very young. I have a twin sister. She was also my wife, but she was eaten by it.”
"Is your sister also your wife?"
"In the world where I was born, anyone other than parents could get married." Xiao Jinzi said, "My sister and I were born together. We should have been the most perfect couple."
"I think you'd like a drink now."
"Your wine is very good, but I can't taste the meaning of Jianghu from it like you said."
"Then drink more." Lao Li said: "I will accompany you, forget these bad things and the differences just now, and have a good drink."
"Alcohol makes people intoxicated and depraved." Xiao Jinzi said: "Your world is full of negative energy of decadence and depravity. I can't be fooled by you."
Lao Li laughed and said: "If you think about your wife, then think about your hometown and the taste you have tasted during the many years of living in this world, you will understand that the benefit of wine is not anesthesia. , but lies in forgetting worries, as the saying goes, things in the world are ups and downs, and things are often unsatisfactory. How to relieve worries, only Du Kang... "
"I seem to understand a little bit." Xiao Jinzi stared at Lao Li's eyes, was silent for a while, and said: "If I finish this drink and I still can't understand what you call Jianghu and the human world, you and I will have to fight for each other. The future destiny of this world has come to an end!"
Lao Li said: "I would rather be friends with you than be your enemy."
Xiao Jinzi said in English: "Me too!"
Lao Li said: "I actually don't believe in human nature either."
Xiao Jinzi said: "Me too!"
Lao Li said: "But I really want to know whether the result of falling to the bottom will be better than keeping faith and yearning for the light."
Xiao Jinzi said: "If you yearn for the light, you may evolve a divine life form. If you yearn for the abyss, the result may be the birth of a new quantum evil. This is an unacceptable result under any circumstances."
Lao Li said: "Don't drink?"
Xiao Jinzi nodded and said, "I'm not interested in your self-degrading way of life."
Lao Li said: "Must we use our fists to determine the truth?"
Xiao Jinzi said: "I have been thinking about your punch these days."
"My slow boxing is mediocre, what is there for you to think about?" Lao Li asked with a smile.
Xiao Jinzi said: "That punch was very focused. Your life source energy is not as good as mine, but it is purer than mine. This was especially true for that punch. My life source energy was firmly attracted at that time, so I lost to you."
"You can't count yourself as losing to me." Lao Li said: "It's just a discussion. I didn't win and you didn't lose. It's good to make friendly friends with each other, but if we fight again this time, I'm afraid it won't be so good. The result."
"I have already thought of a way to resolve your slow punch." Xiao Jinzi said: "If I beat you next..."
"I will kill everyone in Zhige City, destroy humanity and say goodbye to this world completely!" (End of Chapter)
