If the foundation is laid in illusion, the achievement will be illusion; if the foundation is laid on the ground, the achievement will be real.
The system of laws of heaven and earth is certainly not illusory, but it has been subject to too much "interference" and "contamination" and has been immersed in it for a long time. It is destined to spend a lot of time on "removing the false and preserving the true." Moreover, "dirty" is "dirty" and "old" is "old". When surrounded by it, no matter how hard you try, your vision will be obscured and you will be unable to escape.
In contrast, only the few laws at the top, because they are the least contaminated, can be regarded as the most real, or at least the closest to reality. Standing there, it is possible to enter the "realm of reality" ——This is the mysterious level where Yu Ci just "met" with the Yuanshi Demon Lord.
Whether it is an earthly immortal or a divine lord, after reaching the top of the system of laws of heaven and earth, what they seek is to completely "eliminate the false and preserve the true" and throw away all "disguise" and "dirt", that is, to completely break away from the system of laws of heaven and earth and realize the understanding of the universe. True mastery of nature.
It is a bit mysterious to say this, but the most realistic point is that if you are contaminated by these laws, you are destined to never be able to escape the threat of "catastrophe of heaven and earth".
Back then, Qu Wujie was known as the "Ninth Tribulation Sword Immortal". In fact, he had refined and separated from the system of laws of heaven and earth. It was almost to the extreme. All kinds of tribulations, including the fourth and ninth tribulations, could not implicate him. At this point, sword cultivators use divine will as their frontline to cut off all pretense and falsehood. After surviving the catastrophe of emptiness, they can directly reach the realm of reality, which indeed has a natural advantage.
However, Qu Wujie had a foundation, friends, disciples, and enemies. All of these still formed an indirect network of calamity, which trapped him in the Sword Garden for thousands of years, and he could not escape.
The situation of the Yuanshi Demon Lord is much more complicated.
As the top divine master, the Yuanshi Demon Lord has already entered the realm of reality, and has gone much further than most people. But he was bound by far more than anyone else.
Because, he is the devil in his incarnation.
It is said that "others transform themselves into freedom", which means that one cannot achieve oneself and must destroy others' ways to achieve great freedom. Fundamentally speaking, it is a "parasitic" state, which is the essence of the demon clan. This surname was brought out of the womb when the laws of heaven and earth were innately combined and transformed, and it has since become the foundation of his Tao. Even if the Yuanshi Demon Lord has vast supernatural powers and boundless magic power, he cannot change it.
Such a surname has restricted the path of enlightenment for the Yuanshi Demon Lord. It was destined that he could not be refined and break away from the influence of the law system of heaven and earth, and even fell deeper and deeper as his power level continued to increase. After all, the attainment and liberation of all creatures are based on the elimination of evil tribulations. This is a process of ebb and flow, thus forming a serious paradox:
Do you want to be detached? Magical power is the foundation, all of which come from demon dyeing. The more creatures that are dyed, the higher the level, and the deeper they are affected by the law system of heaven and earth;
Want to unwind? If he ignores or fails to do anything, as the monks break through layer by layer, the demon clan will only become weaker and weaker, and eventually tear him off from the highest level.
This creates an irreconcilable conflict: on the one hand, Yuanshi Demon mainly maintains the Heavenly Demon clan and maintains the Demon Sect's legal system, because that is his foundation; on the other hand, the more he maintains it, the more he will be affected by the old law system. The drag gets deeper and deeper, to the point where I can't extricate myself.
So, for a long period of time, the Yuanshi Demon Lord was fighting against himself.
Until he found the possibility of breaking the knot.
There are two ways. One is to fight against the entire system and taint all living things. When all the laws of heaven and earth are brought under his rule, and they are born, destroyed and reorganized in his own way, he will naturally have enough resources and abilities to analyze The truth behind it. But this method is also the stupidest method. With the vastness of the universe, the prosperity of all things, even with the boundless magic power of the Yuanshi Demon Lord, and the long life span comparable to that of heaven and earth, if you want to do this, you can't see the end. .
As for the other kind...
In the field of the system of laws of heaven and earth, there is an absolute truth, that is, "the system of laws of heaven and earth cannot afford the power to transcend the system of laws of heaven and earth." Just like holding your hair and lifting yourself up, it will always be a useless effort. The most typical manifestation is the scene of void collapse and distortion derived from the original power.
But the Yuanshi Demon Lord saw an opportunity.
When the void collapsed and twisted, the system of laws of heaven and earth completely lost its effect in that area. What is the fulcrum of a scene that does not depend on the system of laws of heaven and earth?
The relationship between the laws of heaven and earth and the nature of the universe has never been antagonistic, but a relationship of inheritance and explanation. In the system of laws of heaven and earth, it is possible, or more accurately said, to inevitably touch the true level of the universe. Every move of all living things is actually connected to it. It is just a question of more or less, far or near, and whether it is conscious or not.
In this sense, if we use the elimination method, we can naturally draw the conclusion: through that scene, it is possible to eliminate the role of the law system and reach the other side of reality.
But by extrapolating the phenomenon of void collapse and distortion backwards, it is also easy to reach another conclusion: after certain conditions are met, collapse and distortion can continue indefinitely. In other words, the universe will end here!
This is indeed a prohibitive result. However, through tens of thousands of years of continuous deduction, the Yuanshi Demon Lord has obtained a very "interesting" possible surname - when this scenario evolves to the ultimate stage, there will be a breakthrough Then succeed, succeed after failure, and reshape the nature of the universe.
More importantly, this is a feasible method that can bridge his essential shortcomings and resolve fundamental contradictions.
It can be imagined that the Yuanshi Demon Lord will never let go of this opportunity.
Fortunately, what is fortunate for all living things is that the Yuanshi Demon Lord is not a reckless man who just does what he thinks. He has shown a very rigorous and cautious attitude towards this judgment. Over the past ten kalpas, he has conducted more than ten thousand related experiments in every corner of the endless starry sky, and Donghua Void was one of them.
Of course, this experiment was set up and conducted under the advice of someone...well, it must have been Mrs. Huangquan's suggestion.
Yu Ci will not be able to analyze the more specific situation in a short time, and a more fatal crisis is imminent.
Due to the presence of Yu Ci and the unexpected damage from the outside, this experiment is destined to fail. Without the "fuel" transportation of Tai Amohan and Donghua Void, the original power as the core of evolution will burn out in the next period of time under the influence of the terrifying power caused by the collapse and distortion of the void.
The collapse and distortion will cease, and the violent heat flow will sweep across the entire Donghua void, completely destroying it.
From the perspective of the nature of the changes in the void of heaven and earth that Yu Ci had previously understood, this is a process of "smoothing out wrinkles". However, for the ants attached to the "folds" of the void of heaven and earth, this process is too rough. At best, they are bounced to the unfathomable depths of the void, and at worst, they are directly evaporated in the rough process.
What Yu Ci has to do now is to grab a way out of the boiling soup-like heat of the void and the forcibly stretched structure of heaven and earth.
Before that, he had to revive his body, which was only one breath away.
Yu Ci Xingshen was negatively impacted by the Yuanshi Demon Lord, and was only a thin line away from complete collapse. But this "thin line" is a barrier that even the First Demon Lord cannot easily cross.
Because that is the law of life and death, a direct reflection of the reality of the universe.
This is Yu Ci's biggest reliance at this stage and the only chance to escape.
In a sense, everyone can touch reality and feel reality, but "understanding", especially "utilizing" reality, requires immortality. The realm of real people is the lowest standard. Yu Ci was able to use the law of life and death, on the one hand, because of the magical foundation laid by Tianyuan's natal golden talisman, and on the other hand, he relied on the magic power of the God Lord to bypass that restriction.
But now, the God Lord network has collapsed; the twisted and collapsed void has isolated the connection between the inside and outside; he has just stepped into the realm of reality but was bombarded back by the Yuanshi Demon Lord. It is no longer possible for Yu Ci to borrow external power, and everything can only be relied on he himself.
The power of the Ping Ping Pearl has been exhausted, and the void law domain in the heart has also been washed to pieces by the negative impact. However, as a true reflection of his "object image", there is still a limited area at this time, which seems to be crumbling. In fact, it is firmly supported at the core of the collapse and distortion of the void.
Yu Ci is here, making a last-ditch effort for his own life.
He had a chance - precisely because he was in such a desperate situation, the opportunity crossed the boundless void of heaven and earth and arrived "early".
As the analysis of the massive information poured in by the Yuanshi Demon Lord gradually got on track, Yu Ci was able to separate part of his mind and re-open his sense of the outside world. The extremely distorted void of heaven and earth also has an irresistible binding force on the soul's induction. There is only one reason why Yu Ci can freely enter and exit his consciousness, that is, he has entered the "Real Realm", the level of consciousness, in a certain sense. The power of reading is beyond the realm of heaven and earth, so it is unrestrained.
Of course he also remembers that the Yuanshi Demon Lord is here. so what? Things can't get any worse. All it takes is a little courage to re-enter the "realm of reality".
But at this time, he did not find the Yuanshi Demon Lord. It seemed that after confirming the experimental results, he was too lazy to pay attention... maybe.
Without the influence of the Yuanshi Demon Lord, he immediately captured several clear induction sources and made contact with them.
Sure enough... his judgment was correct!
The consciousness that enters the "realm of reality" seems to see a huge background curtain, blurry and deep, as if an invisible hand is kneading a certain place into a ball. There are several scenes clearly visible in different areas on the curtain:
He saw Guiyan disintegrating into smoke on the periphery of the twisted void; he saw the four-foot green blade falling to the ground in the empty quiet room; he saw the sky rails set up in the depths of the endless starry sky collapse and dissipate; he even saw The three-dimensional void core that had been trapped for more than ten years broke free of its shackles and disappeared into the air, disappearing without a trace.
Some parts belonging to him were transported across the twisted void of heaven and earth under the influence of strong gravity.
As for the chaos caused, I couldn't care less about it for the moment.
The speed of thoughts is unparalleled. The void is twisted, the internal and external routes are twists and turns, and the differentiated and outward thoughts are still familiar. Following the old example of the true meaning of the Ping Ping Pearl, it penetrates in, gathers and reorganizes with the physical, spiritual and legal body, and bridges the major shortcomings of Yu Ci's soul.
In an instant, the soul structure returned to completeness.
Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.
After years of hard work and opportunities, although Yu Ci is a Buxu "fledgling" who has never been to the outside world, he is only one "perfect soul" away from the realm of "real people". But now, even this shortcoming has been made up.
Yu Ci was not overjoyed - his current state did not deserve this. Under the pressure of negative impact, he was still only one breath away from death. What he has to do now is to completely reverse this situation.
The four seed talismans, namely the Soul-Reviving Fixing Star Curse, the Life-Expanding Urban Star Curse, the Taiyin Service Banning Ghost Technique, and the Beidou Soul-repelling Death Technique, are linked together and light up one by one, just like a talisman that has just emerged from hibernation. The snake that woke up was groggy at first, but its agility gradually emerged.
Around this vein, countless talisman shadows are looming, seemingly clueless, but there is a vague sense of interlocking fit with each other. This is the structure of Tianyuan's natal golden talisman, reshaped on the basis of the law of life and death. , only in Yu Ci's thoughts.
But at this time, Yu Ci hesitated.
Should we follow the old path?
Before entering the "Realm of Reality", Yu Ci would not be so entangled. But after deeply understanding what the reality of the universe is, he had some inadequacies in the natal golden talisman system established based on the system of laws of heaven and earth.
"Real people" can understand "reality", but most people lose this opportunity due to compromise with the will of the laws of heaven and earth. Correspondingly, sword cultivators often have more opportunities to touch the truth because they do it more simply.
Yu Ci is facing such a problem. Should we choose to compromise, or should we just go with the "real" one?
Choose the former, and everything will be done step by step, like most monks, compromising, overcoming calamities; compromising, overcoming calamities... the cycle repeats. After climbing to a sufficient level, he can search, refine and transcend again, if he is not lost at that time.
Choosing the latter is absolutely correct in terms of fundamental legal principles, but what he faces is a situation where several catastrophes merge into one, the Heavenly Jealousy Pass, the catastrophes that he avoided after suppressing Lu Suhua, the difficulty that increased sharply due to his uncompromising help, and then Coupled with the indescribable pressure that comes with being in touch with reality.
There is this memory in the consciousness of the Yuanshi Demon Lord: he must bear the weight of heaven and earth and form an orderly movement of time and space; he must form a seamless world by himself and not compromise with the will of the laws of heaven and earth. It must be firm and stable, the legal principles must be rigorous, and it must be a self-contained system...
Countless harsh requirements, he...can't do it!
Yu Ci sighed slightly, his breath overflowing from his dry and shrunken nose and throat, and he heard an echo. At this moment, the severely distorted void of heaven and earth began to recover, and astonishing heat was projected outward.
