Myriad Paths

In the realm of desire, in the void, at the bottom of a golden mountain.

Li Qi originally thought that when he came to the Desire Realm at this time, he would encounter strange spirits and strange waves, washing in the sea of ​​desire. He would face the onlookers and gazes of many third-level demons, and he might even have a fight or something. of.

After all, he came to the Desire Realm to end his many connections with the devil, so that he could be promoted to the third level safely without having to be shackled by the devil in the future.

He had anticipated various situations, such as now, where no one paid attention to him and left him alone in the world of desire.

But what he didn't expect was that he would meet a strange demon monkey.

To be honest, Li Qi really had a sense of déjà vu.

Sun Wukong, this name is so familiar to Li Qi that it is unbelievable. Compared with those unfamiliar names like Qishan, Sun Wukong is the most serious one.

However, like everything in his memory, it was completely specious. It seemed like it was, but in fact, at first glance, it seemed not.

For example, the demonic monkey in front of him gave him an extremely strong sense of déjà vu. Even the ‘golden mountain’ in front of him looked like a stick...

But it is a kind of seal, and it doesn’t look like Wuzhishan. Moreover, this is the world of desire, not the real world. Everything here is transformed by desire. Whether it is spirit or material, it is actually the manifestation of desire. It's just transformation, including this boundless void. The reason why there is boundless void is because the creatures in the outside world believe that "there should be void outside the territory."

In Li Qi's perception, this place is a collection of imaginations of all living beings.

Although this imagination sometimes goes awry.

Imagination actually requires training. The so-called "be confident" actually means being able to imagine a complete bamboo.

This is actually quite difficult. When you imagine something, there is a high probability that what pops up is some kind of 'impression', a kind of 'feeling', rather than a detailed picture. In fact, if you think about it in detail, it will actually make you think more carefully. You will find that it is beyond recognition.

A simple little game can illustrate this point, allowing you to imagine a ‘future wife’.

Your first impression will be an 'impression' that you think is realistic, and then you start adding details to this 'future wife'.

What color are the eyes? What shape are your eyelashes, what hairstyle, what clothes, what personality, what is your oral habit, where do you work, what is your education, what are your hobbies, what do you like to eat, what does she like about you?

Supplement these things one by one, and when they are finally completed, you will find that there is a huge gap between the impression you originally imagined, and your initial 'blurred impression', if realized, is actually just a blur. A completely invisible mosaic.

In Li Qi's estimation, the world of desire is a dangerous sea composed of this kind of 'mosaic'.

But looking at it now, the nature of the desire world is stable, not too far from an ordinary world. The demon monkey in front of me is even more vivid. Although the demonic energy is deep, it doesn't look like a fantasy.

This confused him quite a bit.

"Huh? Why are you so stunned? You haven't said why you came here. I was born here. I have never seen any visitors. I can't get out. Now I finally have a visitor. How can I get here? Or a fool?" The monkey ran out from the bottom of the mountain and circled around Li Qi.

Only then did Li Qi react from his thoughts, so he shook his head and said, "I was just thinking about something. Brother Monkey, you said you were born here and you don't know your name. Then your current knowledge is all Did you derive it yourself? The same goes for your practice?"

The monkey said: "Yes, it's all like this. I'm also curious about my current situation. When I was first born, I thought everything in the world looked like me. But then I reached the current state, creating the world and observing The operation of it, civilization is born out of thin air, I gradually learned this. You are the first outsider I have seen. How about you tell me about the outside world? "

He looked very curious and looked forward to what Li Qineng would say to him, which was why he took the initiative to show up.

In fact, Li Qi was as curious as him.

A magical existence with the essence of the third grade, a demon monkey full of demonic energy. He was born here and has never seen any foreign objects. However, relying on the wisdom of the fourth grade, he creates things from the void, creates the world and civilization, and then observes it. My own creation and civilization, from which I stepped on the left foot and stepped on the right foot, went from knowing nothing to what it is now.

fantastic.

But this is really the case, as the saying goes, 'Tao generates one, generates two, two generates three, and three generates all things'.

As a being born with the third-grade essence, this demon monkey was born in the boundless void with nothing. If he were a mortal, he might not even be able to be born with self-consciousness.

However, as a great thing with reality and capable of becoming the 'first cause', he directly used himself as the starting point to forcibly create a world, creating a 'world with nothing', and then in all the surrounding worlds, for a long time, Time, and the Tao itself, began to evolve.

In the absolute void, there is the existence of 'Tao', that is, there are 'rules' themselves. Based on the rules themselves, coupled with the nature of third-level existences that can 'make something out of nothing', life began to evolve here, and finally civilization appeared.

That is to say, the surrounding worlds, although in Li Qi's opinion, the intelligent life in those worlds are all monkeys, and the homogeneity is very serious, they are complex enough for the most basic civilization.

As a result, the demon monkey produced civilization, and civilization fed back to the demon monkey. The demon monkey took advantage of this to take a step further, stepping on the left foot and the right step by step, forcing this demon monkey to reach the fourth level of cultivation by its own strength.

Although his essence is third grade, his cultivation and essence are two different things.

This is simply unbelievable, can it still be like this?

Can the wisdom born under this model really reach this level?

"Hey, I asked you to talk about the outside world, why were you stunned again?" The demon monkey yelled at Li Qi dissatisfied.

"Oh, I'm observing the world around me. Sorry, I'm sorry, then I'll talk to you. Please listen." Li Qi said with a smile, and then started to perform.

He mouthed the words, and scenes of what he was describing began to appear around him.

Daoyin's information density is extremely high, it can convey more things, and the surrounding visions are constantly showing scenes from the outside world.

Li Qi continued to show the reality of the outside world to the monster monkey in front of him.

The demon monkey looked straight in the eye.

As if he felt that his eyes were not enough and his ears were not good enough, he suddenly gave birth to three heads, with a total of six eyes and six ears, each extending in different directions, controlling all six directions.

Upon seeing this, Li Qi also increased the information density and began to narrate the history of civilization and even many major events outside the territory at a faster speed.

In this way, six eyes and six ears are no longer enough.

He scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and then grabbed a few monkey hairs. Then he had an idea, and suddenly blew the monkey hairs, transforming into thousands of clones. Each clone looked at one side, and a massive amount of information was absorbed into his mind.

How should I put it? Li Qi wanted to complain when he saw it, but after thinking about it, he let it go.

Is this magical power...this expressive power really what I think it is? But something doesn't seem right. All in all, it feels specious.

But Li Qi did not stop performing, but continued for about a month.

This month, Li Qi told an epic about life outside the territory.

Along the way, there are thorns, frost and dew, so we don’t have to be sad alone. We turn into grains and millet and sigh in this generation. Even if the laws and regulations are scattered, the tragedy of the burning of elegance in the school hall has been recorded. The emperor’s picture and the emperor’s book are the theme, even in ancient times. As a result, Xi Yan has come since the beginning of the article, and now, the five fortunes and rules have been accommodated, sorted out, and narrated by Li Qi's vast knowledge base.

When searching for similarities and differences, we must mention all the strange things. The articles on the charter and ancient history are collected and recorded in Qi Zong. The rhetoric is overly interesting, the meaning is broad, and the reasoning is old. It mostly refers to Zhenxiang's books, and it is based on the things of gods and immortals, and all the wonderful things are described in it.

Various civilizations and world groups are like various cells in biology that constitute the life of the universe. They are constantly dividing, generating, aging and annihilating, and constantly cycle. "Existence", "death", "speed" and "eternity", in such a huge Over time, the meaning of these words is no longer their "original meaning."

Even if all of this is actually just Li Qi's 'knowledge', which he has reproduced based on his current known knowledge, the future may not be like this, and the universe may not be like this. There are infinite things in the universe. Various civilizations have been excavated, but all of this is shocking enough.

The demon monkey even cried at the last moment.

For a being who is actually at the fourth level of cultivation and is essentially at the third level, this is really weird, but if he thinks about it carefully, his living environment does not allow him to have a deep understanding of the city. He was indeed shocked and moved.

So, he cried loudly, freely releasing his emotions after being shocked and moved by all this. With his tears, the world around him was also shaking.

In the picture painted by Li Qi, the demon monkey saw a fact that moved him but also left him dead.

Every life is a spark in nothingness.

For the long history, even the immortals can only be a flash of light. What can be left behind? As powerful as the ancient holy emperors, didn't most of them die in the ancient times?

They briefly lit up the boundless void, and there might still be warmth in the air, but it would eventually cool down.

"Since everything must die, why must it be born again?" the demon monkey actually asked.

Li Qi heard this question, but smiled and said: "The birth just happened to be born, it has no meaning. The meaning is what you and I want to do at this moment."

"Then...is there any difference between the desire world we are in and the outside world?" The demon monkey already had basic common sense about the outside world, so he asked again.

"I don't know either. My purpose of coming here this time is to find this answer." Li Qi said with a smile.

"If you find it, can you tell me?!" The demon monkey immediately approached Li Qi.

However, with basic common sense, he immediately realized that his behavior was slightly inappropriate, but he did not give in, but shouted as if to cover up: "I will reward you!"

"There's no need for compensation or anything like that, I'll tell you." Li Qi smiled and waved his hand.

This attitude greatly satisfied the demon monkey, so he became even more excited: "You are really a good guy, why don't you and I sworn brothers, and treat each other with sincerity from now on, just like the story!"

Looking at the other party's excited face, Li Qi felt... if he refused, the monkey might turn against him on the spot and turn from brother to enemy.

But...does he really understand what 'sworn brothers' are?

Li Qi was a little skeptical.

So, Li Qi suddenly turned serious: "Brother Monkey, do you really know what 'sworn brothers' means?"

Li Qicong's smile suddenly changed, which made the demon monkey a little at a loss. However, after hearing what Li Qicong said, he immediately burst into laughter: "Isn't it just that we share life and death, and share blessings and misfortunes? What's so difficult about this?"

"The promise is very heavy. This kind of cause and effect, Brother Monkey, cannot be taken lightly." Li Qi said: "If it is serious, I will naturally welcome it. If it is a joke, don't mention it again."

These words made the demon monkey angry: "Does Li Qi think that I am a child's play? Although I have no name, I am still upright and I will not let you despise me! Let's make a bet——"

"It doesn't have to be like this, Brother Monkey, if you are willing, I will bear the name of this brother." Li Qi saw the other party's excited look. He didn't know why, maybe the name Sun Wukong still had some emotional impact on him, but he actually Agree.

Seeing this, the demon monkey turned from anger to joy, and pulled Li Qi, insisting on sworn sworn vows.

Perhaps because of his survival experience, this monster monkey has an upright temperament and has obvious joys and angers, but now Li Qi is actually not that easy to trust others.

Appearing to be upright may not really be upright.

However, he felt that this demon monkey was really simple-minded and ignorant of the world. In addition, his painting style was so similar to that of Sun Wukong. Li Qi seemed to think that there was nothing wrong with this... Moreover, his sixth Feeling constantly encouraged him to do this.

Wu Jin's sixth sense is very metaphysical, and Li Qi usually believes it.

As a result, the two really became brothers here, and what surprised Li Qi even more was that when they were sworn to swore blood, the monster monkey actually showed his true form openly.

Li Qi could clearly see that when he was bleeding, the true form shown by the other party was the 'Demon Thought'.

And it is pure demonic thought.

However, I have said before that not all demonic thoughts are malicious.

Just like the current desire realm, demonic thoughts are an object, and there is a wonderful existence in the vacuum. It is both empty and existing, and it is true or false. It is almost in a superposition state, and it is impossible to distinguish good from evil.

Demonic thoughts cannot be dualistic. After all, in the realm of desire, mind and matter are the same, and the mental karma of trillions of sentient beings forms a common cause, including all living things, even heaven and earth, etc., and a common dream is woven world.

Demonic thoughts can also be very pure and kind.

The demon monkey in front of me seems to be the same.

After the sworn vows, the demon monkey was overjoyed and insisted on pulling Li Qi to talk.

As he was talking, he seemed to think of something, and suddenly clapped his hands: "Brother, what do you think I should give a better name?"
