Myriad Paths

Li Qi tried to "feel" the existence of this person named Ming Leshan.

Then, he felt it immediately.

A concept, a kind of... I don't know how to describe it.

Li Qi sighed, and then said: "Spiritual Dao, it's really..."

"For someone like you who regards material and spiritual as equal, it is indeed difficult to accept." Ming Leshan said so.

In fact, it is not "saying", to be precise, it is a kind of communication of ideas.

In this place, there is no "sense" of any form.

It is even more extreme than the Desire Realm.

There are all kinds of spiritual phenomena and spiritual feelings in the Desire Realm, but even these have disappeared here. Everything is just pure "concepts".

This is also what Ming Leshan said "It's hard to accept".

It's like a person who thinks "money is important" and a person who thinks "money is not important" are debating.

No matter how you argue, you can't get a result. The difference in the recognition of value between the two sides is so huge that both sides think the other side is too weird.

Li Qi felt that a world with only ideas could not be called a qualified world, while the other party felt that Li Qi was entangled in a lot of nonsense, which was too meaningless.

But it didn't matter. Both sides knew the existence of this difference and would not conflict because of it.

Seek common ground while reserving differences.

"So, why did you come to us? Few people would come to us." Ming Leshan asked.

"I have this question too. Why did you take the initiative to contact me?" Li Qi asked back.

"That's why I asked you, because I was curious. I was curious about why you came, so I came to ask you." Ming Leshan replied.

"Well... I'm here to find something that can be compared to the desire world." Li Qi said.

The moment he finished speaking, Ming Leshan disappeared.

Curiosity has been satisfied, the answer has been obtained, so there is no need to communicate with Li Qi anymore.

This even made Li Qi a little surprised.

This is a bit outrageous.

Lingdao is really... individual.

But maybe it's just the other person, Li Qi thought, and prepared to find what he wanted in this real territory of the spiritual path.

Li Qi began to observe the surroundings and use his "heart" to feel the situation here.

It's wonderful here, because Li Qi found that there is no "distance" in any form here. He can sense the existence of all "concepts" at the same time in an instant, but he can't understand any "concept" specifically.

How to describe it... It's like looking at a menu, and it's like clicking on the options on the screen on a computer.

Is there a "distance" in the storage content of the computer?

Of course not.

However, the absence of distance does not mean that everything is piled up in front of you, because... "being close" is actually a kind of distance.

The form at this moment is more like everything exists in your "heart" at the same time, and what you want to recall and what you want to contact must be directly felt through your "heart".

Then, without any extra operations, you can directly experience it.

In between, there is no "matter" to hinder.

However, Li Qi clearly felt the gap.

It felt like everything was tied with sandbags, just like the sandbags tied to the side of the ship to ease the impact of the collision with the dock. His huge ship could never really touch the dock.

Everything seemed to be in the fog, and it was not real.

Any impact and contact were tied with sandbags to slow down its reality.

Every word said by everyone was diluted in advance. Was it to prevent collision? Or... was it directed at Li Qi?

Even the feelings between each other became numb, some touching impacts disappeared, and the feelings themselves were delayed here.

"Strange." Li Qi felt the situation around him like this, because he couldn't completely abandon the material? Or what was the reason? And what about other spiritual existences?

Li Qi played his excellent qualities, that is, he didn't hesitate to ask questions, and wanted to find someone to ask what was going on.

Compared with guessing blindly, asking people is obviously a better way.

But, he found... no one paid attention to him.

Damn, you Lingdao are a little bit ungrateful, after all, I am a second-grade, can you ignore me?

So, Li Qi prepared to make a fuss and make some noise.

But when he started to make a fuss, he was shocked to find...

Wait, what is the fuss?

Outputting distracting thoughts? That seems to be a method of the magic way. In the Lingdao, the concepts of all things are summarized and integrated, even "war" and "destruction".

Therefore, the output of distracting thoughts has only one effect, that is, Li Qi will be "classified" out, and will not affect other people and other concepts at all.

How can you hurt an "idea"?

You can smash the mountain, but can you eliminate the concept of "mountain"?

After smashing one mountain, there is still another mountain. Even if all the mountains in the universe are smashed, the existence of all "mountains" is eliminated, and everyone forgets that there is still a "mountain", but in front of the concept of "mountain", there will still be continuous "mountains" being created.

The mountain-building movement will never stop, and the raised ground will always exist. They are just the manifestation of the concept of "mountain". As long as the concept exists, matter will continue to imitate it.

So, what is the concept of "mountain"?

As an abstract concept, the concept has no intuitive expression. Since there is no intuition, even if we use logic to trace it infinitely, we will eventually find that it is indescribable and can only be "understood".

Therefore, in order to facilitate understanding, we need to give it an intuitive image, and this intuitive image is the manifestation of this concept in matter, that is, the "mountain" itself.

In the end, we will find that in the world of "spirit", this kind of struggle is meaningless.

All people's consciousness and general concepts do not rely on any material entity, nor do they follow any material laws. They are completely separated from each other.

If Li Qi wants to influence others, he must think of other ways.

If it is just for "war" and "making a fuss", then for the absolutely eternal concept itself, this war itself is also immovable and eternal.

Everything is the externalization and embodiment of its concept in the process of movement and change, so when you really come to the "concept", you will find that the world is "static" in a sense.

So, Li Qi "sat" down.

Since no one came to talk to him, he could not influence other things, so he would understand it by himself.

Don't underestimate the second grade.

Li Qi let go of his perception and began to feel these eternal concepts through those sandbags.

Although it was so unreal, so vague, and like seeing flowers in the fog, but... Li Qi still began to invade these "concepts" through his senses.

The second grade can easily define his own body sense time. Li Qi began to exhaust all the "concepts" he could touch in this endless process.

How long did he take?

Don't care, don't care.

It is seen in the collection, questioning and debate.

Knowing his learning, supplementing it with literature.

But Li Qi read everything in it, and remembered everything he read, and used his huge information processing ability to forcibly and violently understand all the things represented by the "concepts".

The saints of humanity have subtle words and profound meanings. A simple sentence requires others to think hard and search hard, and to be able to reach the extreme. They must carefully examine and carefully select the principles of the hundreds of schools of thought, the historical texts of the past dynasties, and the right and wrong gains and losses.

Then, when facing pure ideas, the so-called "subtle words and profound meanings" are more like a profound summary and metaphor of the idea.

Li Qi started from this point and learned the ability of the great men to summarize the ideas. He wrote the ideas into articles, and used his wisdom and insights to run through the past and the present, repeatedly examined and returned to the classics, and did not gallop with empty words, supplemented his intentions and words, and supported the classics.

Through this method, even if he could not really understand what the "concept" was, he could forcibly summarize the characteristics of the concept and the idea.

So...

After a long time, Li Qi finally found the flaws of the "idea".

The idea is perfect and eternal.

Therefore, the idea can even be said to be ‘absolute’, and an ‘absolute’ thing, like logic itself, will constantly separate its opposites due to its inherent negativity.

This is very simple. If the idea itself is absolute, infinite, and eternal, then the idea itself must contain the negation of the idea itself.

Otherwise, it is not absolutely infinite and eternal.

If the idea itself contains the negation of itself, then the stillness of the idea will be broken.

Therefore, the idea is not completely still. Although the ‘idea’ itself is still and eternal, there is still ‘movement’ between the ideas.

Through his own understanding, Li Qi began to realize that the idea is not intolerant of contradictions, but on the contrary, there are contradictions everywhere in the idea.

The mutual movement between ‘ideas’ produces ‘contradictions’, and the contradictions transform into each other, and finally give birth to ‘changes’ and ‘possibilities’.

A single idea is still and eternal, and a large number of ideas together are moving and contradictory.

And in this contradiction, the idea itself can also progress.

Mutually exclusive things are combined together, and different tones create the most beautiful harmony.

Is this the contradiction that Lingdao thinks of?

Li Qi started from this point, combined it with his own "contradiction", and then from the conceptual level, let his "Tao" gradually "penetrate" into Lingdao.

At a certain moment-

Suddenly, Li Qi was completely immersed in the moment of "thought", and the "sandbags" or "gloves" around him became thinner.

Li Qi finally established an intuitive perception of "ideas".

He successfully established the point that "matter and spirit are homogeneous". Through the "contradiction" characteristics of the idea itself, the material cognition itself was added as a purely abstract empty concept to the nature of the "idea".

So, he finally had the "five senses" again, had the "five aggregates", and could accept the existence of the "idea" with intuitive senses.

Li Qi opened his eyes in the world of "ideas".

The white world where only ideas exist is so quiet, and as the dawn reveals little by little, it makes people feel an indescribable beauty.

But Li Qi didn't care about these, he just carefully paid attention to his steps.

Except for his own heart pounding, he could not hear anything else.

However, although he was careful, he was not afraid at all. At this moment, there was no room for fear in his heart. He only thought, "Quick! Quick! Quick!"

He had to hurry up, don't let anyone find out!

He could clearly see the existence of other "ideas", and that was why Li Qi had to hurry up.

Li Qi could now see the existence of all the "high-level spiritualists".

If he had to describe it, the high-level spiritualists at this moment were simply... how to say it... If Li Qi had to describe it, it would be "arrogance".

Fortunately, they did not surround him because of their arrogance, so Li Qi could breathe as loudly as he did now.

The arrogant trick of the spiritual path is to "demand" and "restrain" oneself severely, and to cover up one's own existence strictly until the "idea" forms a self-enclosed transparent small sphere around oneself.

In the middle of this small sphere, the high-level practitioners of the "spiritual path" sit upright.

Self-righteous, self-respecting, and self-denying.

Those high-level practitioners of the spiritual path sit in their own "idea bubble" and look down on everything.

They think that their "ideas" can interpret everything, so there is no need to get involved in anything in everything.

In the final analysis, things in the outside world are meaningless to them.

They think that their "ideas" have interpreted the world, the world itself is inferior, and their ideas tell everything, so they only need to read the "ideas" and there is no need to care about things in the world.

They are invincible gods in that transparent world of ideas.

No one can deny that the territory of that idea is their territory. Everything is there in the territory, and the outside world is worthless, so how can they invade others?

Therefore, these high-level spiritual paths feel complacent from the bottom of their hearts, and even "superior".

For example, Li Qi now knows that the spiritual path will not do anything to him.

No, that is part of the "superiority" of the spiritual path.

The spiritual path is too superior, and he doesn't care about what you do. He just needs to be complacent in his bubble and think he is superior.

However, in Li Qi's opinion, what is the spiritual path superior to?

This arrogance made Li Qi frown, and it was also the reason why he wanted to be "fast".

Because... what Li Qi has to do at this moment is to "pop the bubble".

That's right, Li Qi opened his eyes in the world of ideas, and he is now running in the world of ideas, and he is approaching the central idea.

When he gets there, he can grab——

Li Qi's hand was grabbed.

Is there anyone else who can maintain materiality in the world of ideas! ?
