Chapter 720 The Possibility of the Divine Will of Martial Arts
In this world-class ship, Li Qi was sitting opposite Shou Yu, whom he met by chance, and talking about some ordinary things.
It was really ordinary. The two young geniuses who had only heard of each other's reputation but had never met each other were exchanging their experiences with each other.
This was a kind of "open and honest", probably just that both sides exchanged their own foundations and what they were doing at the moment.
Li Qi did not hide the fact that he was on vacation, and while thinking about it, he also told the story of his dealings with people like the Demon Prince, Yao Ji, Zhang Zong, and Liu Junyi.
Correspondingly, he also knew what Shou Yu had encountered over the years.
After being defeated by the Demon Prince, his Overlord Dao Foundation was completely shattered.
In this world, there can only be one Overlord Dao Foundation. Once two or more appear, defeating others will become a must for all Overlord Dao Foundation holders.
So, he lost.
Along with his Dao Foundation, his martial arts divine will also shattered.
It may be a coincidence that as a warrior, Shou Yu set himself the goal of "invincible within a hundred miles".
Within a hundred miles, there is no opponent, and everything will be defeated by him.
Of course, this is just a goal, his "future", and what he has to do now is at least to defeat anyone who is his enemy within a hundred miles.
Yes, anyone.
Shouyu is even crazier than the Demon Prince.
What the Demon Prince pursues is invincibility at the same level. He hopes that under any circumstances, no matter whether the Demon Prince is in a good or bad state, no matter what the opponent is good at, he can defeat the opponent of the same level, and he has indeed done this.
This is at least understandable. It is not surprising to work hard for invincibility at the same level.
But Shouyu...
As long as he is his enemy, then, even if the opponent's grade is higher than him, Shouyu will still defeat the opponent.
Isn't it a challenge across levels? Just fight.
And Shouyu has always done this. When he was not in the grade, he fought against the ninth grade, and when he was in the ninth grade, he fought against the eighth grade. Before the seventh grade and the Demon Prince fought, he had just hammered to death two sixth grades.
And he did not take shortcuts and encircle and kill like Li Qi. The tactics he adopted were to fight head-on and smash the opponent to death.
The classification of warriors is very vague. Generally, they are classified by their battle records. If you kill a sixth-rank warrior, you are a sixth-rank warrior. Therefore, many people at that time thought that Shouyu was already a sixth-rank warrior.
However, Shouyu himself knew that he was actually no different from when he was a seventh-rank warrior. The reason why he could win was just because his opponent was too useless.
This point was also shown in the challenge of the Demon Prince later. The Demon Prince thought that Shouyu and he were opponents of the same level, at the same level.
At that time, Shouyu was not like he is now.
He was called the Little Overlord. He was heroic and vigorous. He seemed to be about to jump up. His martial arts spirit laid an absolute domineering aura, and no one dared to challenge him.
After that, it was a battle with the Demon Prince.
Shouyu did not say the specific content of the battle. He jumped over, but the result was obvious. He lost.
According to Shouyu himself, after his foundation collapsed, the Demon Prince did not kill him, but said to him: "Very good... In this way, you can be sure of others."
After speaking, he gently put Shouyu on the ground, and then left without looking back.
After that, Shouyu lay there for seventy years.
For seventy years, he did nothing, letting the dust blown by the wind and sand bury him, lying dead on the ground.
What Shouyu was thinking about, he didn't say, but Li Qi could imagine it.
But...
Although he could imagine it, Li Qi couldn't understand it.
For Li Qi, failure was completely acceptable. How could anyone be undefeated? Even the Demon Prince would definitely suffer a big loss in the future. Pursuing undefeated... It was completely meaningless.
Even if he failed once, so what? So what?
Who dares to claim to be invincible? Who dares to claim to be undefeated? Those who claim to be undefeated will eventually be slapped in the face. There are always people who are better than you. There will always be someone to deal with you. Even though the Demon Prince is jumping hard now, he will definitely be slapped in the face when the time comes.
No one will deal with you when you reach the fifth grade, but when you reach the fourth grade, you will face the monsters of the fourth grade.
When you reach the third rank, you have to face third rank people. The third rank beings can't even be described as monsters. In the end, there are even second rank and first rank.
You don't want to say that you have been promoted to the first rank and are still invincible at the same level, right?
You may not even be able to reach the third rank.
So the pursuit of invincibility itself is just a meaningless act. In Li Qi's eyes, it is meaningless to practice. After all, practice itself is not for getting stronger.
Getting stronger is just a side effect of following the path.
So, Li Qi raised his doubts here: "Is invincibility... so important?"
"For you, it is not important, because failure is also a part of your world, and you are not afraid of failure." Shouyu said: "But don't you have the same fear? For example, find out that you are wrong?"
"Knowing your mistakes and being able to correct them is a great virtue, so why fear?" Li Qi was puzzled: "If it is wrong, it means that there is a correct way, isn't that a great thing?"
"That's what you said, but that is only limited to the following mistakes, right? If your concept is wrong, can you still be so indifferent?" Shouyu said.
If the saying "finding out that you are wrong means there is a right way" is wrong, then how should Li Qi deal with it?
To be honest, Li Qi did consider this question, and he also has his own answer, which is 'self-evident'. These things do not need to be proved. It is enough to assume that they are real. These common sense are self-evident and should be accepted without proof. Questioning this is purely asking for trouble.
All high-rise buildings must be built on the foundation, and this foundation actually needs to be established by oneself.
However, as a warrior, Shouyu said such a thing, which really surprised Li Qi.
So, Li Qi replied: "If even the most basic foundation does not exist, then everything does not exist. That is the ultimate pursuit of Tao. Let's be down-to-earth."
"So, my invincibility is also down-to-earth." Shouyu said to Li Qi: "Do you understand?"
Li Qi was stunned at first, and then he immediately figured it out and understood it immediately.
Haha, it's really clever.
Since Li Qi can set an 'axiom' as his foundation, this axiom itself does not need to be questioned, so Shouyu as a warrior is also the same.
Invincibility is his axiom.
After that, all his power was derived from this axiom.
"But, this is too subjective?" Li Qi continued to ask curiously: "If so, then you build the foundation of the Tao in such an arbitrary way, isn't it too dangerous?"
"Too objective means there is no end, just like the Tao of Reason, they directly gave up the pursuit of the ultimate Tao, the reason is that because it is too objective, they lost the ability to continue to pursue, asking why everything, and finally there is a why that can't be answered." Shou Yu said, but at this time, he interrupted the process of discussing Tao, and suddenly said: "By the way, I have been outside the domain for so many years and have never drunk the wine in the world. Do you have any wine on you?"
"Yes, I have, but I can't take it out now. My inner world is blocked and I can't take things out for the time being." Li Qi said.
Shouyu seemed to shake his head with some regret: "That's it, let's continue and see if we can get the answers we want from each other."
"Okay, let's continue." Li Qi nodded: "Just now we talked about the instability of the overly subjective foundation of Taoism. How did you solve this problem?"
"There is nothing to solve. God's will is God's will. It is what the mind and will are. So it is like this. Why bother about other things? After exploring and exploring, what you want is nothing more than peace of mind. Your peace of mind is outside. You feel happy when you understand the outside world. Warriors don't like to think so much. No matter what the outside world is like, I will punch it. As long as I understand myself enough, that's enough. It's that simple." Shouyu replied.
This made Li Qi nod slightly, and he seemed to understand something.
Although the two met for the first time, the conversation was simple and the purpose was pure. There was almost no need for too much greetings and testing. The topic went directly to the point that both parties needed.
This feeling made Li Qi very comfortable. When communicating with ordinary people, there would always be doubts and temptations. Their need for "survival" was too great, and their need for "Tao" was too small, so they would always be suspicious.
But talking to people in the world, it was much more straightforward and comfortable.
This kind of communication lasted for about a day and a night.
Through this kind of communication, Li Qi was able to re-recognize the "Martial Arts".
Of course, it is not about the entire martial arts, but the martial arts of the little tyrant Shouyu, that is, where his Tao foundation came from.
He benefited a lot from the communication of one day and one night.
The core of the martial arts is "conquest", which is also the original intention of the martial arts. No matter what it is for, the martial arts is born for fighting.
Then, for fighting, there will be many branches, such as understanding the enemy, or understanding yourself.
If you understand the enemy, then you can't understand it all. How many kinds of enemies are there in the heavens and the world? How many kinds can you understand? Like Li Qi, go to read a lot of books and see all the ways, will that work?
It is definitely not possible. Li Qi himself cannot do it. He dare not say that he understands all enemies. He still needs to learn slowly.
So, instead of learning the power of the enemy, it is better to focus on yourself and make yourself "invincible". No matter what type of enemy, you can penetrate it. Isn't that enough? How simple it is.
As for whether it can be done or not, it depends on "divine will".
So, focusing on one's own subjective will and then distorting objective matter is the martial arts divine will.
Shouyu's martial arts is to use the internal energy of martial arts to influence objective matter, and to use the martial arts divine will to influence subjective spirit. In this way, all weaknesses can be completely ignored and their killing power can be maximized.
So when his foundation collapsed, his interference became much smaller, because he could no longer maintain his invincible state similar to "self-hypnosis".
It may sound ugly, but Li Qi just feels that the so-called martial arts divine will is "self-hypnosis".
Although this kind of self-hypnosis may be very terrible in reality.
After thinking about it, Li Qi thought that he might not be able to master this kind of power anyway.
After all, this is not his way at all.
From the beginning, Li Qi could not have "believed that he was invincible" and then built his own foundation. Although Li Qi would also build a system similar to "axioms" to support his various inferences and logic, these axioms were also universal phenomena based on objective reality, not subjective judgments.
In the final analysis, he could not accept this illusory Dao heart.
However, the magic, martial arts, or spiritual paths were very happy, and they did it.
This exchange made Li Qi realize what he had overlooked before.
The essence of the martial arts divine will is the subjectivity of the world.
This is certain. When this world itself has objectivity, it can also be distorted by subjective will, at least this is the current observation result.
When Li Qi was building the world, he created a parallel world with the fourth-grade Dao rule and used the real universe as a template. He had already noticed it, but he could not explain it.
Li Qi could not explain it, and it was not easy to explain it.
Why?
Objective and real matter should be certain, but it can be distorted by illusory "thoughts".
Just like the first appearance of the ‘Observer Effect’, observation itself will cause disturbances to the material world.
He can of course forcefully understand ‘thoughts’ as some kind of objective substance, such as understanding psychic energy as some kind of magic, and forcibly classify it as objective materialism.
But that obviously does not conform to Li Qi’s observation phenomenon, because he is very sure that if he really knows that Yun saw it, it is just an illusory thought, and there is nothing else. It is not the matter that affects the matter, but the spirit that affects the matter.
It is simply incredible and too contradictory! The contradiction is so great that Li Qi’s cultivation is even about to explode.
And there is an answer to solve this contradiction.
That is... there is no objectivity in the first place, and all of this is ‘absolutely subjective’, that is, flowers bloom when you open your eyes, and flowers are silent when you close your eyes.
In other words, it is the way of magic.
But Li Qi is unwilling to accept the way of magic.
He must find a new answer.
Li Qi only felt a headache.
I can only say that fortunately he was lucky that he had sealed his cultivation before, otherwise it would have exploded, and the devil would be absolutely irresistible.
After putting aside these distracting thoughts, Li Qi simply raised his head and said, "So, you came to the Illusion Realm this time... Are you looking for the improvement of the martial arts spirit in the Illusion Realm?"
"Yes, but I needed to refuel on the way, so I just found a world at random. I didn't expect to meet you. What a coincidence." Shou Yu smiled and admitted this.
That's right, he came to refuel.
As for the gas station, it is the Forward Alliance below.
It just happened to run into it.
