Myriad Paths

The meeting with Lachi made Li Qi feel very happy.

The young Wu Jin has grown up very well. He has his own views on the world, and uses this set of views to measure the world itself, practice it personally, and understand it.

This is pretty cool.

To judge whether something is good or bad, the first thing you must have is a standard. Without standards, then all things will be the same and there will be no distinction between good and bad.

If you want to judge whether something is good or bad, it is necessary to establish a standard. Moreover, Tao must be implemented and implemented. If it is not implemented, then the standard will be empty talk.

And this standard is the way you view the world, which is the so-called ‘own way’.

Awake beings will consciously establish this standard and then implement this standard. They will absorb the experience around them and combine it with their own thinking to ultimately improve their understanding of various phenomena in the world.

For example, "Is light a wave or a particle?" "Is it wrong to violate discipline in a group but achieve good results?" These questions are manifestations of some phenomena in the world.

Is it a wave? Is it a particle? Or wave-particle duality?

Miscalculate? Is it right? Which is more important, results or discipline?

These are all part of the standards. Everyone’s standards are different, and some people even have double standards. But you must know that behind all double standards, there is an implicit and unique standard.

If you don't consciously establish this standard, you can only accept the so-called 'experience' from the outside world.

If you accept external experiences without thinking, absorbing, and accommodating them, then these experiences will easily make the world your only standard, and eventually you will follow the crowd and become a "non-righteous person."

He has no way of his own, only the discipline of the world.

It is true that when you are young and have nothing to do, many of your self-righteous opinions and conclusions may be wrong, but the thinking itself is not wrong.

People have their own thinking direction and approach, which is fundamentally different from being confused and making blind guesses, or simply following the crowd.

So Li Qi didn't interfere too much. He had already protected the other party, so let Lackey deal with whatever happened to him. He would always hit something.

He is still young, relaxed, and happy, with youthful vitality overflowing in his body. He has no worries, but as a little bit of realistic pressure approaches, he seems to feel that he should do something, but he doesn’t really know what to do. , but he didn’t seem to be in a hurry, so he took his time and enjoyed his life.

Isn't this great? There is no need to be beaten every day like Li Qi. You have to be wary of demons and humans at all times.

Before leaving, Li Qi gave a sermon to his daughter and apprentice.

A vision was born, flowers fell from the sky, and golden lotuses sprouted from the ground.

Listening to Master's sermon, Lachi had a strange feeling in his heart.

He felt that something in his body, his most essential spirit... prompted him to continue pursuing something.

Strengthen your will and never back down, because fate favors you and gives you this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This idea overcomes all the cowardice in Lucky's heart.

He knew that not only could he explore the deepest reaches of the universe, but he would also have the opportunity to discover what role life and mind played among the stars.

Now Lachi is thirsty for knowledge. In addition to his desire to explore the universe, more importantly, I am eager to understand the meaning of the existence of all things, or the meaning of all sentient beings in the universe.

This universe is not only filled with celestial bodies composed of material and dust, or those stunted creatures, this universe also has layers of prosperity and wisdom.

Lucky thought.

And Li Qi sent them away.

Immediately afterwards, Li Qi took Yao Ji back to Xuanjing Mountain.

There was no one in Xuanjing Mountain Cave Mansion at the moment.

The two sisters, Yang Ning and Shen Shuibi, went out to play. Li Qi knew their location, but there was no need to spy on them. The two sisters had to take care of their travels, which was too broad. Li Qi was not that heavy-handed. man.

Naturally, there are no outsiders at home. Li Qi and Shen Shuibi are both people who like to be quiet. Generally, only family and friends come into the cave.

However, within a few thousand miles outside Xuanjing Mountain, things are flourishing. I heard that the bezoars have recently reached the sixth level, which is very gratifying and congratulatory.

And because of Li Qi's relationship, the status of the cave here has also increased. I heard that there is a temple about Li Qi down there, but I worshiped the wrong person, and the honorary name and the statue were all messed up, so Li Qi didn't receive incense or anything. of.

But after receiving it, it was just wiped out. Li Qi was not prepared to become a god.

Although he is indeed half god and half earthly being now, those are only the characteristics of his physical body.

Real gods are quite tiring.

Moreover, he now got to talk to a god himself.

After bringing Yao Ji back to Xuanjing Mountain, Li Qi looked at this proud god, the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven.

Yao Ji still looks like that, she looks flawless, beautiful, and her body is in perfect harmony. Her expression is not actually cold, but she is very normal overall, with joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, and is quite rich in emotions.

It's just that... she has a relatively indifferent attitude towards mortals. She has no empathy for mortals, and she doesn't think that what happens to the other person will have any impact on her.

But at this moment, Li Qi and she were of the same race, so she flashed her beautiful big eyes, waiting for Li Qi to speak.

So, Li Qi took the initiative and said: "In your own words, Yao Ji, you... are reincarnated and re-cultivated, right?"

"Ah, didn't I say that? I remember saying that, right?" Yao Ji recalled the past.

She probably didn't hide it.

The daughter of the Emperor of Heaven is only in the fifth rank, not because of anything else, but because she has been reincarnated and cultivated again.

She is the kind of brave person that Li Qi has always admired, a brave person who can give up reality and give up all the constraints of the past and start over again in order to take a further step on the road.

Although Yao Ji is not a good person, everyone is complicated. Her coldness and lack of empathy towards mortals and insects does not mean that Yao Ji does not have her own advantages.

"Indeed, you said it, but... I didn't think about it at the time. I thought you were just an ordinary reincarnation, and I never thought that your previous life could reach that height." Li Qi said.

"Yes, it is indeed difficult to imagine the power of the third level before actually coming into contact with it, but it doesn't matter, so what are you looking for me for?" Yao Ji looked at Li Qi in confusion.

I came here with great fanfare just to confirm whether I had a past life?

"Haha, I just mentioned it. I called you here mainly for another thing. Yao Ji, the Emperor of Heaven asked you to follow me. I thought it was to protect you, but now it seems that it is not protection, but surveillance. Ah." Li Qi changed the topic and came to the main topic.

Yao Ji nodded: "I think so. After all, the Emperor of Heaven doesn't trust me too much. Taiyi and Huanglong have their own reasons to fight for the position of the center of the universe."

As soon as he said this, the vein on Li Qi's forehead jumped.

yes……

He saw it with his own eyes last time. Huang Long took action and provoked Tai Yi. Finally, Haotian took action to stop the two from fighting.

It's the same now that I think about it.

Taiyi is the center of the four phases, the lord of star officials, exists as the ‘Emperor Star Ziwei’, and is located at the center of the entire sky.

The yellow dragon is the "fifth phase" and the "leader of the four spirits". It is in the center of the four directions and holds the rope to control the four directions.

The Yellow Dragon is the source of all things and can change with the changes of time and space. Its head rests on stars and Zhang, and its tail hangs willow and Bing. It reflects the three platforms: Si Four Seasons, Si Zhongyue, Si Zhongtu, Si Shui, and Si Luo Chong.

The status of the two overlaps, and it is natural for them to argue with each other.

So, was the competition between Huanglong and Taiyi for the ‘Emperor Star’ and ‘Four Phases’ suppressed by Haotian?

"So, is Huang Long a god?" Li Qi suddenly asked Yao Ji.

"Of course, Huang Long is a pure earth creature, but he is similar to Chang Qin. Although he is a god, he did not join the Shinto. Instead, he promoted the birth of the 'True Dragon' race." Yao Ji said .

Prompted the birth of the true dragon race?

This made Li Qi frown.

He had never heard of this.

"The seventeen stars of Xuanyuan are located in the north of the Seven Stars. They are the god of the Yellow Emperor and the body of the yellow dragon. The star of Xuanyuan is also the yellow dragon. The two fish have the image of Xuanyuan, so it is named Xuanyuan." Yao Ji said.

As soon as he said this, Li Qi immediately stretched out his hand, pressed his temples, and rubbed them hard twice.

One of the emperors, Emperor Xuanyuan, or the Yellow Emperor, once conquered many civilizations in ancient times and then subdued them.

Then, after unifying the large and small tribes and combining the characteristics of the tribes, the image of the 'dragon' was created. Therefore, the dragon looks like a mixture of many kinds of creatures, possessing the characteristics of many kinds of creatures.

As the saying goes: "It can be huge, it can be thin, it can be quiet, it can be bright, it can be short, it can be long, it can exist and it can perish."

So, are dragons a race created by Emperor Xuanyuan? And Emperor Xuanyuan also possessed a dragon body because of this? He thus became the true dragon who created all true dragons.

"Wait a minute, isn't Emperor Xuanyuan on the side of people?" Li Qi looked at Yao Ji in front of him and asked again immediately.

"Then I don't know. I haven't fully woken up yet, and the mystery of the womb has not been completely solved. I am only at the fifth level now." Yao Ji pointed to her head and said indifferently.

Li Qi was silent for a while.

He needs some time to think, some time to deduce, and some time to review what happened in the past.

During his silence, monstrous mana swept through the timeline of Li Qi's past experience, and at the same time spread to cause and effect, connecting many things that Li Qi had seen, as if he wanted to track down something.

For a period of time, Yao Ji did not appear nervous at all.

Seeing that Li Qi was silent, she stood up and started rummaging around the cave.

She is very familiar with this place. After all, she has been here many times. Li Qi has no plans to redecorate it, and the positions of various furniture have not changed.

So you can see her familiarly opening the cabinet, taking out Li Qi's tea, and then running to the spiritual spring outside to find water to make tea for herself.

Then he rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find snacks for himself. He found the medicine gourd filled with rabbit medicine and poured half of it out to use as jelly beans.

Finally, he found a stone, lay on it, drank tea, tasted elixirs, and waited freely for Li Qi to wake up.

If the true meaning of Taoism is freedom, then Li Qi feels that Yao Ji has already acquired the samadhi.

I really consider this place my home.

But... as far as Yao Ji herself is concerned, maybe for her, the whole universe is her home. These things should be hers in the first place. This universe was shaped by Haotian and the gods, and she naturally Has dominion over all things.

Li Qi was opposed to this. He didn't think that all living beings should surrender to gods. However, as far as eating snacks was concerned, Li Qi didn't care about her. They were all cheap things, so just eat them.

However, there are many fourth-grade elixirs made by Rabbit. She only has fifth-grade elixirs. She can eat them if she likes, and eating them will count to death. Haotian will not go to the underworld to fish for people.

Li Qi thought about it for about a quarter of an hour. During this period, Yao Ji played with herself. She even made a small world next to her, which was not good enough.

However, there are also three thousand miles in length and width. In her hand, it looks like a crystal landscape ball. The continents in it are square, and the four corners are pulled by four sky-reaching locks, suspended above the sky, and then in the square There is half a ball of water below the continent.

This move is actually quite amazing.

Most fifth-level players can easily destroy this kind of world, but if you want to create such a small world at will, you actually need skills.

It's like origami. Anyone can tear off origami. Destruction is very simple.

But not everyone can fold beautiful paper flowers. This is also a professional skill, just like radish carving. It has nothing to do with your magic power, your weight lifting and muscle level, but it is very important to your profession. There are certain requirements for proficiency and knowledge accumulation.

There are some fifth-level people who can rely on this craft to make a living. In a world where precise customization and complete standardization are run, it is still a good business.

Unfortunately, this business is now extinct.

This kind of thing "world" has completely disappeared in this reopening of the universe. Only a few entities can continue to create worlds.

Now Yao Ji can customize such a world purely because she, as a god, has the talent and power in this area.

Mortals no longer have the chance to see the place where life sprouts called the ‘world’.

In today's universe, life is nurtured by 'planets' and many similar 'celestial bodies'.

The rules have changed, and everything can only obey. Except for the third-level and above who are the foundation of reality, and some individual gods, they have their own room for maneuver.

As for Li Qi, he had already finished thinking about it at this time.

He looked at Yao Ji and said: "Really... Then, Haotian handed you over to me, most likely to let me watch you. After all, you have a conflict with Haotian, and now Haotian Teng I won’t come to see you.”

"Yao Ji, you are not possessed by a demon, are you?"
