Chapter 839: The Person Who Is Hated by Others
Outside the domain, in a small flying boat.
The flying boat is very simple, but the simplicity is only in the decoration. In fact, the performance of this thing is very terrible. It has reached the peak of the fifth-grade magic weapon, which is also the limit that the Demon Prince can control.
He cannot control the fourth-grade magic weapon. Even if the fourth-grade magic weapon can break the limit of the Heavenly Dao, the Demon Prince himself still cannot break through, so being carried by the fourth-grade magic weapon will die, and he still needs to slowly adapt.
Yes, adapt.
The Demon Prince has fully understood the power of the fourth grade, and he has made all preparations for his promotion, but given the nature of his magic, he still needs to slowly change his "concept".
For the magic, this requires full psychological preparation to change his subjective concept.
This is difficult, similar to that although we all know the wave-particle duality of particles, and we all know that matter itself is a "wave", but at the same time it has stable properties in the macroscopic sense.
However, it is still difficult for everyone to get used to recognizing matter as a wave, and even in daily life, they will subconsciously ignore the properties of matter "waves" and directly treat it as a stable particle state.
This is, although the knowledge is there, the "concept" has not changed.
The magic path is extremely dependent on the cognition of subjective will, so even if the Demon Prince has recognized some clues of the fourth level, he still cannot really change his inherent cognition of the world.
After all, this inherent cognition is what he has accumulated little by little over the past many years, and he may need the same amount of time to change this "habit".
After all, not everyone can break through easily. For most people, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to get a perfect score in the exam. It is clearly written in the textbooks, and it is all old almanac knowledge from hundreds of years ago, but they just can't understand and use it.
It is very difficult to break through the path. For many people who are not talented, even learning existing knowledge is very difficult, let alone breaking through themselves and creating new knowledge.
Create new knowledge and incorporate it into your own path, so as to update your cognition of the world, summarize the value structure of the universe's material, and then use this cognition as a guide to "invent" a method and magic that can actually change your strength, and advance your own cultivation to a higher level.
This whole process is considered a ‘breakthrough’.
It is very difficult, and its difficulty is no less than the upgrade from the first level civilization to the second level civilization. It requires an all-round breakthrough.
First, you need to correctly recognize this world, and then use your own cognition to summarize and transform this world, so that your state fits your cognition. This is the whole ‘breakthrough’ process.
Countless people are stuck in the middle, unable to move, because they neither know what this world is like, nor can they creatively transform this world.
If you ask a person in the feudal era to understand that matter is a ‘probability wave’, even if the answer is told to him, he may not understand it, because his entire worldview does not support such a conclusion.
The Demon Prince is like this. He has reached a conclusion on his own, but he cannot accept this conclusion. He is currently struggling with his subjective will. In other words, his ‘capacity’ is not enough.
His ‘capacity’ cannot accommodate this conclusion. At present, he cannot accept this ‘fact’ that is completely incompatible with his previous concept.
It’s like a baby cannot accept that ‘invisible things still exist’.
For a child, only when he sees something, he thinks that it exists. Once it disappears, the baby will think that it no longer exists.
Because the concept of objects for babies has not yet been fully formed, for children at this stage, the existence of objects is not independent, and the world is connected with the child's own actions and perceptions.
In other words, children think that the reason why only part of the objects are exposed is because they are disappearing, not covered by other objects.
Therefore, when the baby starts to try hide-and-seek, it is a training of growth capacity, which shows that his cognitive ability has developed to a new level.
When he completes the training, the child's understanding of objects will gradually change from "the object disappears and does not exist" in infancy to "the object disappears in front of my eyes, but it still exists."
This is the typical cause of the law of causality, that is, "the object does not change".
In other words, life must be able to understand that when a certain "object" disappears, it still exists, and can also understand where the "object" goes. This fact will constitute the basis of people's cognition of the world, that is, the schema construction of the object's permanence is closely related to the entire space-time organization and causal relationship of the real world.
Now, the Demon Prince needs to break this permanent perception of the object, and return to the infancy of "If I can't see it, it doesn't exist", the world is empty, and his own perception is also empty, and completely subvert his solidified perception.
He also needs some time to grow his capacity and allow himself to accommodate these completely different and conflicting concepts.
He also needs to live longer and see more, and this adaptation time may be as long as his life.
However, considering the age of the Demon Prince, this so-called change actually doesn't take long, and 10,000 years is more than enough.
If someone says that someone has broken through to the fourth level in 10,000 years, it may scare a lot of people to death.
Outside the domain, there are many people who have lived for 10,000 years and are still at the seventh level.
Even the notorious Demon Prince is actually working hard for cultivation. He is not waiting for his cultivation to come. In fact, even if he has the top talent and the Dao rhyme from the ‘Earth Mother’, he cannot reach the level of the Demon Prince now without making corresponding efforts.
Li Shiwei, who was watching the Demon Prince training, was like a baby playing hide-and-seek. The baby would hide things and then take them out, constantly trying to verify the ‘object permanence’.
The Demon Prince is constantly trying to train himself to make things outside his subjective consciousness ‘disappear’, and then ‘create’ them, so as to train himself to recognize the nothingness of things, so that his subjective will can completely replace the existence of the ‘law of cause and effect’, and from then on he no longer needs objective things to support himself.
Although they both recognized the possibility of the fourth level, the Demon Prince and Zhong Minglou adopted two completely different methods. It can be seen that even if they are both fourth-level, their paths may be completely different.
Although they have the same goal, the "different paths" themselves are their biggest difference, and this difference is the source of all conflicts.
Watching the Demon Prince's training, Li Shiwei was puzzled. She took the initiative to ask: "Uncle Mo, why do we have to leave the world?"
"No reason, I just came here for pleasure." The Demon Prince answered casually, blocking Li Shiwei's words.
It's that simple, coming here for pleasure, this is the most rogue and most common "reason" of the Demon Dao.
"Impossible, is it because of my father? I heard that Li Qi came to the hot sand, repelled four demon kings, refined one of them, and then swaggered away." Li Shiwei said.
"Really? He is quite capable, one against four." The Demon Prince did not comment, and said casually, continuing to focus on his training.
"Not one, he also brought a warrior, two people joined forces, it seems that he is determined to target the Demon Dao." Li Shiwei said.
"Oh." The Demon Prince replied.
"Uncle Mo, you should know something?" Li Shiwei did not give up.
At this time, the Demon Prince put down his training, turned around, and glanced at Li Shiwei.
Li Shiwei's hair stood on end! A piercing chill as if being stared at by a beast came over her, and her blood, tendons and bones were almost frozen in an instant, and her heart slowed down.
But corresponding to the feeling of cold, she began to sweat crazily, and the cold sweat soon soaked her clothes.
Just one glance, Li Shiwei fell silent.
"Be quiet, I'm not your father. If you think there is any problem, you can go back now." The Demon Prince said lightly, then turned his head and continued his training.
Li Shiwei stopped talking, just sat in the back, watching the Demon Prince practice.
The Demon Prince did not hide it, and his training method could be clearly seen. In his hand, he held a fifth-grade gem, which could be used as a magic weapon raw material, but here it was just a plaything.
This gem would disappear when the Demon Prince closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, the gem would appear again.
Then, he pinched the pearl with his hand, and the pearl disappeared in a place where he could not see it. When he took away his hand, the pearl appeared here again like a magic trick.
Within my sight, it exists.
Outside my sight, it will disappear out of thin air.
All this depends entirely on "me". These things have no reality and are completely dependent on "me" observation.
Flowers bloom with open eyes, and flowers are silent with closed eyes.
The real world gives the existence foundation of all things, and the Demon Prince can now give things or even deprive things of their existence foundation.
Yes, Li Qi is completely different. Li Qi's fourth rank cannot deprive others of their existence foundation. Although he can choose the future, rewrite reality to a certain extent, and achieve the degree that he is equal to reality and can make himself self-sustaining, the existence of others is also given by the real world, and he cannot easily deprive them.
The Demon Prince is different. He not only gives himself reality, but also deprives the existence foundation of things without reality, making them completely disappear, and achieving "existence erasure."
It is a terrifying ability.
Li Shiwei witnessed all this, closed her eyes, and stopped watching.
Whether it was Uncle Mo or my father, it was the same.
The things they touched were absolutely beyond her reach, and it was difficult for her to catch up with their footsteps even if she tried her best. She could not help with the things they usually talked about, the things they touched, and everything else, and she was not even qualified to understand them.
It was this feeling of powerlessness that made her choose the magic path and break through to the fifth level.
Although... after she broke through, she found that she was in the way again.
Her father did not need her help at all and could win. She went to the magic path to borrow strength, but instead caused Li Qi to fall into greater trouble.
Li Shiwei also fled from her father because of this.
Yes, she fled. She could not stand the fact that she was useless, and she could not stand the fact that even if she gave up her original persistence and fell into the magic path, she could only cause trouble to her parents.
For this reason, she came to the side of the Demon Prince to find a place to stand.
Unfortunately, it was not long before the Demon Prince had fully demonstrated a fact.
He did not need Li Shiwei, but Li Shiwei needed him.
That is to say, even by the side of the Demon Prince, Li Shiwei is still the one who causes trouble.
Think about it carefully, she has never been very popular since she was a child. No one has ever praised her as a "charming" person, and basically no one likes her. Yun Fang Da Wu may be the friendliest to her, but that is because Yun Fang Da Wu is particularly friendly to everyone.
In the end, no one accepted her. Her parents took care of her because of their duty to give birth to her, but this shelter made her more aware of her own situation.
She lives in this world because of "parents' pity". Apart from that, she actually has no value in this world.
She relies on others, but no one relies on her.
She longs for power, because power can make her independent, so that she can help her parents who have raised her, or help Uncle Mo in front of her, but even if she has obtained power that she could not imagine in the past, she finds that the power she gave up so much in exchange is not even as good as the other party's finger.
From beginning to end, she is like a clown, pulling herself and moving herself.
No one cares about her efforts and sacrifices, and does not care about her help.
There are always some people who are indispensable, and there are always some people who are dispensable.
These two can be converted. A person can be dispensable in one place and indispensable in another.
For example, a father with ordinary ability is dispensable at work, but he is an indispensable pillar in his own home.
Therefore, for this father, home is his value and his spiritual pillar. Although he is not good at work, he can survive many difficult difficulties for his family.
But Li Shiwei is different.
She deeply realized that she is the kind of dispensable, and this is true everywhere.
No place needs her, she can't find her own value at all, and she is not anyone's pillar.
She is not liked, and some people even hope that she will not appear at all, and they are annoyed when they see her.
Facing the demon prince who ignored her, Li Shiwei stood up.
She subconsciously touched the jade pendant on her waist.
But after realizing this, she let go of her hand again.
The stone has too many words and is not pleasant to hear. She sealed it up and just carried it with her, but she didn't want to listen to the stone's nagging.
