Chapter 375: The Evil One
Li Qi felt that he was very lucky.
Of course, maybe it was not very lucky, but very unlucky.
Because he found that neither the real know Yun nor the naked eye could observe how this scene worked.
It was difficult for the real know Yun to peek at this huge demon dragon. The other party's status was too high, beyond the real know Yun's observation level, which meant that this demon dragon was at least a fifth-grade dragon when he was alive.
Li Qi did not try to observe it by force, because he would die. Although he dealt with the fifth-grade dragons on an equal footing all day long, it was precisely because of this that he could understand the power of the fifth-grade dragons. The moths that tried to get close to the flame were doomed to perish.
But the naked eye could not observe it. The naked eye could only see the light, and the mysterious fluctuations and runes, which spread out from the demon dragon's body little by little, connecting all the dragon veins of the forty-nine caves together to form a genuine "earth dragon", but that was all. He could only see the surface and could not see anything real.
So Li Qi said that he was lucky.
Three days ago, he finally gained some of the ability that might be the clairvoyance, that is, the information flow vision that can see through a certain essence.
At this moment, Li Qi found that among all his senses, only the information flow vision could observe the changes of this demon dragon.
I hope this is just a coincidence.
However, those are all later. At this moment, Li Qi has been paying close attention to the process of resurrection.
The mysterious runes lit up on the body of the demon dragon little by little. Li Qi could see that many "components" were piecing themselves together.
Resurrection is a very difficult and taboo thing.
Li Qi has heard a story.
It is about the witches in the human world.
The book records: "At that time, there was a witch named Cai who used ghosts to confuse the people and claimed that she could resurrect the dead. The people in the city thought she was a god. The superiors verified her falsehood and requested to move to the border. The wise man said: "If the dead do not come back to life, it is a demon; if the dead come back to life, it is even more sinful.'"
It is enough to show how taboo this kind of thing is.
Almost all paths have some concerns about this.
The resurrection of the dead is not reincarnation. Reincarnation is re-entering the cycle of reincarnation, but the mind is retained. However, your previous life is indeed dead and has become a part of the cycle of reincarnation.
The resurrection of the dead requires resistance to reincarnation and escape from the basic order of the heavens and the worlds, just like escaping from the starry sky.
The starry sky was originally an order created by the star officials.
For Li Qi, this is basically nonsense. He can never do such a thing.
However, for the stronger ones, there may be a possibility of taking advantage of loopholes.
However, there are only such things that can allow Li Qi to clearly see the "boundary".
The boundary between big and small, the boundary between groups and individuals, or the boundary between fast and slow, although these boundaries exist, they are too small. Li Qi cannot observe too small boundaries. He is not at that level.
Only things at the level of the boundary between life and death have such a huge difference. This kind of drastic transformation can produce enough conspicuous traces for Li Qi to observe.
He is ready.
Obviously, the demon dragon was also ready.
I don't know what level of power it was! The whole Imperial Academy was suddenly shrouded in a terrifying energy field!
Thunder and lightning were dark, and a dragon was rising up, taking advantage of the anger and roaring!
The dragon roared, and the sound was heard for dozens of miles, and the sound was heard in Changchuan, and the river water flowed backwards!
There was red air like crimson in the northwest, and purple air came from the east in the southeast, and the two airs roared towards Chang'an!
The sky thundered, and the male pheasants raised their heads and roared wildly.
Within a radius of 3,000 miles, all the roosters raised their heads and roared to welcome the sun, echoing the thunder and roar in the sky.
However, these are just superficial. In the past, Li Qi might have focused on examining these special effects and then tried to find the hidden symbols and secrets in them, but now he has a more intuitive feeling.
The information flow vision clearly reveals the whole process of a mind resurrecting from a dead state.
However, it has not yet reached the limit of resurrection, and it has attracted strong attention.
Not far away, the Dharma body of the Imperial College Master unfolded.
"Who is this monster!" With a female roar, a phantom of a ruler came over.
It seems that the Dharma body is not the real Imperial College Master, but the Dharma body of the ruler that Li Qi saw before.
Li Qi ignored the ruler.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
This ruler... is not a threat.
Li Qi continued to watch the process from death to life, and countless information flows left traces in his mind.
The information flow vision does not rely on the naked eye and brain, does not rely on the five aggregates, and even does not rely on the soul. This pure mental observation is the observation of the material world by the 'spiritual entity'.
This world seems to be divided into two parts.
One part is the bottom-level operation, similar to the information flow, and the other part is the material entity seen normally.
The two run in parallel and together constitute this world.
Li Qi was particularly touched at this moment.
The ruler reached over, but was knocked away by an invisible force. A serious female figure can be seen flashing in the ruler, seeming to be very surprised.
But it was not a rebel, nor was it the power of a demon dragon, but another strange existence.
At the same time, the situation that Li Qi had expected also happened.
The space around him was distorted.
The black fog slowly came out, like mercury, and like silt, it submerged the area where Li Qi was.
The place covered by these black fogs was dark, hibernating insects were covered, and the grass and trees were scattered. A strange yin energy spread out.
In this yin energy, an iron city was faintly visible.
The city gate was towering, and the black fog rose to the sky!
There were many guards, all with ox heads and dragging faces, blue bodies and blue hair, each holding a spear or halberd, sitting or standing on the left and right of the gate.
Li Qi watched this scene carefully.
Sure enough, the resurrection of a high-quality strongman would inevitably attract the Yin messenger.
But this is exactly what is needed.
The underworld, or the underworld, reincarnation, whatever the name is, it must be in conflict with the world of the living.
Li Qi had never seen the underworld, and of course he would never see it unless he died.
But now is the time to see part of the appearance of the underworld.
The underworld and the world of the living merge!
The collision of life and death!
That boundary will definitely stand out in this collision, and Li Qi will take it all in!
Li Qi is not going to make a move, nor is he too lazy to help the demon dragon revive.
There is no need. His life or death is meaningless to Li Qi. All Li Qi has to do is observe. Whether he is alive or dead, he will use the last flames and ripples of his life to illuminate the way forward for Li Qi.
He is as steady as a mountain, sitting cross-legged in place, concentrating on observing, recording, and thinking.
Wu shamans are originally high-ranking neutrals.
They judge the conflicts between heaven, earth, people, gods and ghosts, and communicate the contradictions between heaven, earth, people, gods and ghosts. They have always been in the center, indifferently examining other existences.
Wu shamans are scales and bridges. They only care about one thing, that is, through their own judgments, they can make the world move towards a better future.
That future is a world where the source of the world is extremely powerful, all life is like the innate gods, everyone is a producer, and can create things by their own existence, rather than consuming other things to maintain their own existence.
The entire path of the Wu Dao is built on such a vision.
Therefore, Li Qi also maintained this mentality at this moment, although he was the one who planned this resurrection.
However, he just pushed it and gave the demon dragon a chance.
Give you a chance to revive in exchange for a viewing ceremony.
It is so fair that no one can criticize it. Although this opportunity is given by force, I believe this demon dragon will not refuse it.
If he would refuse, he would not have chosen this way to maintain his possibility of resurrection.
Li Qi continued to observe, and suddenly saw two ghost messengers with ferocious looks, who came to him, holding a lock in one hand and an edict in the other, and shouted: "The underworld is chasing, no one is allowed to enter!"
After speaking, they posted the edict in the air.
The invisible stand unfolded, isolating everything from the outside world, but Li Qi was still in the barrier.
Li Qi was stunned.
This... this move, isn't it the method of Wu Dao? He used it a few days ago, drawing a map, and then easily blocked all the paths around.
In the reincarnation... is there the participation of Wu Dao?
It's not that unacceptable, after all...
The Great Earth Witch God is the one who shoulders the reincarnation. Li Qi saw with his own eyes that giant, carrying the entire reincarnation, and then using the sacrifice to dissolve the difficult Yin Qi in it and maintain the existence of the reincarnation.
In other words... Wu Dao actually intervened in the reincarnation?
Li Qi kept observing, and a little bit of thought came up.
Then, he saw that in the Iron City, dozens of Yin Messengers came out and rushed towards the demon dragon.
There were Yakshas who cut its chest with a blade, and there were bull heads who smashed its heart with a hammer, and there were long-tongued ghosts who bound the demon dragon's body.
The demon dragon was besieged, skinned, stabbed, and its heart was gouged out, but the demon dragon did not wake up. Although there were cries of resentment and pain, and the sound of pain shook the earth, there was no other reaction.
However, the red and purple air around it also began to swarm in.
And the demon dragon roared.
Dragons have the ability to thunder.
Li Qi murmured, "Zhen is in Kunkun, so it is said that "thunder comes out of the ground". Thunder is yang energy, and it is also called dragon. After the summer solstice, yang energy reaches its extreme and yin is born. Yin and yang collide, and thunder is formed..."
The thunder is so fast that it looks like a dragon leaping swiftly.
A demon dragon Dharma image emerged in the sky, taking shape with the help of external wind and clouds, holding yang energy, and shining life down.
Rolling black fog also emerged in the iron city, with yin energy and darkness, covering the light of the sun, fighting against the Dharma image of the dragon of wind and cloud!
The battle has begun.
The contest between life and death has begun.
This is a tug-of-war. The yin messenger wants to pull the demon dragon to the side of "death", while the demon dragon Dharma image is just the opposite.
Li Qi can be a referee in theory, but he is not qualified now and can only be a spectator.
The special effects have been seen almost enough, and it is time to focus on the essence.
Countless information streams are combining.
Li Qi has not found anything special for the time being, but he can perceive some strange phenomena.
It's like a puzzle.
Forty-nine different living things cut themselves off and put them together.
This made Li Qi confused.
Forty-nine different living things, put together to become dead things, and then prepare to become alive again?
What is going on?
What is "alive"?
But those forty-nine living things, that is, forty-nine caves that still maintain their activity, have no mind, just a piece of body that has not yet died.
It's like the frog's leg that was cut off in the laboratory. It can move and is not dead, but it is not alive and has no mind.
This gave Li Qi a strange feeling.
He had previously believed that the physical body and the spiritual mind were united to form a person.
But if that was the case, then what were the forty-nine caves?
According to the current situation, what was the mind in the flesh?
If the mind of life was equivalent to the bees attached to the hive, then consciousness was to life, and even to species and the continuation of life, just like shoes to people, just a way, a possibility.
So it can even be said that the mind of life is really a narcissistic thing, parasitic on the species, but dare to claim that it is the species itself.
You can look at those wild beasts, those wild beasts that are attached to the Tao, they can also reproduce, and their grades are even very high, but they obviously don’t have the so-called "mind". Their actions are completely based on a specific rule, and everything is a reaction under this rule.
Or, to use a more extreme example, a robot with completely independent action capabilities, or according to the world, a puppet.
High-level puppets are almost the same as real people. These puppets can speak and react. They are smarter and more decisive than many real people, and even have emotions, but it is obvious that they have no "mind", or what Li Qi now thinks is a "spiritual entity".
So, what is the logical core of their usual reactions and judgments? No mind, no spiritual entity, but they have full thinking ability like humans.
These puppets, can they be considered alive?
Looking at the scene of resurrection, some doubts in Li Qi's heart were answered, but more doubts followed.
However, those doubts are things to be solved in the future.
There is no need to wait until the future, as long as the "boundary" is explained today, maybe it will be figured out tonight.
Li Qi raised his head and took a deep breath.
The battle between the Yincha and the demon dragon has reached a fever pitch!
The tug-of-war between life and death is becoming more and more intense.
The forty-nine caves gradually merged into one, and then turned into a complete human body.
Then, this little world in the human body came alive——
Li Qi immediately widened his eyes and focused all his attention on it!
Here it comes!
As Li Qi watched, the little world in the human body suddenly took shape, and then flesh and blood grew. A demon dragon rose out of thin air, and the Dharma image fighting with the Yincha in the sky suddenly solidified, and a complete light burst out from the dragon's eyes!
At the same time, Li Qi also saw it.
The moment from death to life!
The information flowed and changed dramatically!
At this moment, the nature of life and the nature of information flow all underwent tremendous changes!
The boundary, found!
