Chapter 855 The Five Elements Demon? !

Just when Li Qi was about to close the crack, he suddenly felt a will descending behind him.

However, there was no hostility.

Moreover, the time around him had also stopped, and all the matter was fixed.

Unable to move, the matter had been locked.

The only thing that could move was the mind.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to intervene, and time has stopped." A voice came from behind Li Qi.

The voice was very strange, and the gender could not be heard, but it was very nice, with a crisp feeling like music.

Because time was stagnant, Li Qi's own body and cultivation were all stopped. In other words... he couldn't move now, and the 'time' of the material world was paused here.

It was simply a horrifying power.

You know, this is not as simple as it sounds, although it seems not simple to say... However, now, the time of reality and thinking is misplaced.

All movements in the real world are still. At this moment, it can be said that it is absolute zero or that 'entropy has reached its maximum'. In short, the internal energy has returned to zero, the matter has stagnated, but at the same time, the thinking has not stagnated.

Time in his mind was still passing, reality and thinking were completely misplaced, Li Qi couldn't even figure out what the principle was.

How could it be possible?

For the subjective, there would be two time axes? Although Li Qi knew the existence of relative time, this was too relative!

Li Qi suppressed the shock in his heart and wanted to mobilize his perception and true understanding to look back to see what was talking to him.

"Don't look, you can't see me, or... you will never be able to recognize what 'I' is." The voice said so.

"Senior... why did you come to find me?" Li Qi calmed down and asked.

There should be no hostility, otherwise, there would definitely be a corresponding first-grade attack now. He was watched by the witch god, and the first-grade would be wary of each other, so that one would not move while the others did not move.

You must know that the demons came to find him at a great cost, and it makes no sense that others would not pay.

"You are very talented, I want to teach you some knowledge." The voice said so.

As the other party spoke, Li Qi's mind was also running fast.

Who would suddenly come at this time?

"Don't think too much, I am... the Five Elements Demon." The voice said.

If Li Qi's heart hadn't stopped now, his heartbeat would have stopped directly.

First grade, Five Elements Demon.

Damn, the demon path and himself really have a grudge.

What are you doing, one of the four demons actually showed up in person to find me, and said that I am very talented...

It can't be said that it's wrong, Li Qi himself knows that no matter what, he can actually be regarded as a "genius".

"Don't think too much, as I said, I have no hostility, I just suddenly discovered your existence, it's really amazing... When you were at the seventh grade, you received a drop of my blood, and then nothing happened, and you even gained the ability to see through the five elements and directly receive information with your mind. Li Qi... No wonder the demon likes you so much, I'm starting to like you a little bit." The voice of the Five Elements Demon said so.

Unlike the bewitching and charming tone of the demon, the tone of the Five Elements Demon sounds very "normal", just like a rational, objective and calm netizen typing with you.

However, Li Qi couldn't help but shudder, even though his physical body didn't move at all.

"Senior, you're joking. How can I be so worthy..." Li Qi's mind was a little stiff, and his words were a little dry.

"No, you can, don't worry. As I said before, I have no hostility, and I don't intend to let you bear anything. I just want to tell you some knowledge."

"Do you know what is the most important thing in this world?"

"Senior..."

"Answer my question. This is a first-grade Dharma transmission. You should understand how great an opportunity it is, right?" Wuyun Demon said.

Li Qi wanted to take a deep breath to relieve his tension, but unfortunately he couldn't do it. He could only simulate this action in his mind and then force himself to calm down.

Don't care whether the other party is first-grade or not, just listen to the other party's knowledge.

It seems that he felt that Li Qi's state of mind had calmed down, so Wuyun Demon asked again: "Then... tell me, what is the most important thing in this world."

"It is the essence, that is, the 'Tao' that exists before everything exists." Li Qi replied.

"This is the view of the Wu Dao and the Taoist sect. The 'Tao' of the Taoist sect and the 'nature' of the witches and shamans both exist before everything." The Wu Yin Demon did not go crazy and think that subjective consciousness was everything, but seriously analyzed it with Li Qi.

"The reason why the Taoist sect is called the 'Tao Sect' is that they use the virtual 'ultimate great way' as a guide, and the witches and shamans have integrated this view and proposed 'Tao follows nature'. In essence, you are in common on this point, so the Taoist sect and the witches and shamans have no Tao disputes and have a good relationship. You and your wife can get along well because of this."

"However, can you recognize such an essence?" The Wu Yin Demon asked: "Li Dao has analyzed this issue, right?"

Li Qi was a little surprised at the Wu Yin Demon's clear logic. He originally thought that the magic path was all mentally ill, but the Wu Yin Demon spoke too methodically.

It was completely like a normal person, not a magic path, and even 'possibly' one of the four ultimate beings of the magic path, the 'Wu Yin Demon'.

Yes, Li Qi still doesn't fully believe that the other party is the Five Elements Demon. He said yes, so that's it? Li Qi also said that he is a witch god. He can also scare the seventh and eighth grades and not tell whether he is a witch god or not.

However, Li Qi did not stop answering, but said: "Yes, Li Dao has given the answer."

Li Dao's understanding of the 'ultimate avenue' is actually very simple, that is, 'there is no ultimate avenue', or, 'the ultimate avenue is unknowable'.

Because there is no limit to 'why', even if you find the 'ultimate avenue', you can continue to ask: "Why is there an ultimate avenue?"

As long as you keep asking, then this question is unsolvable, unless there is an answer that can be completely logically complete and can solve all forms of self-referential problems and agnosticism, rather than ignoring them, which can prove the existence of the ultimate avenue, or prove that it is the ultimate avenue.

The essence of this question is very difficult. The key is, how to make a question answer itself?

This is not the previous question. For example, a book contains all the books in the universe, so does this book contain itself?

If it contains itself, then part of this book also contains all the books in the universe, and then this part contains all the books in the universe.

Infinite recursion.

Shen Shuibi gave the answer to this question, which is ‘fractal’. Local self-similarity is possible. A pattern with infinite details can achieve ‘one is all, all is one’. The characteristics of a certain part are all the characteristics of the whole infinity.

However, if the question is slightly modified.

It becomes: "One answer can answer all questions, so what is the question of this answer?"

What is the question of an answer that can answer all questions?

So, how does this ‘answer’ answer this ‘question’?

Suddenly, it got stuck again.

This is natural. If it is not stuck, it means that the ultimate avenue has been found.

It is precisely because it has not been found that it is stuck.

Li Qi shook his head and said, "This question is meaningless at the moment. Unless all questions are exhausted and this answer can answer them, it cannot be proved that this answer can answer all questions."

"You are right. This question itself is meaningless, because there is no magical power that can exhaust all questions, so this question cannot be verified." Wuyun Demon said so.

"That is why you should realize that in this universe, what is important is never the essence or appearance, but the 'interpretation'."

After Wuyun Demon finished speaking, he did not continue.

Because it is enough.

Li Qi's talent and understanding can definitely understand.

If he can't understand, then he is not worthy of Wuyun Demon to continue.

Li Qi was suddenly stunned.

What is important is not the essence, nor the appearance, but the 'interpretation'.

What is the essence of this world, is it important? What is the world we see, is it important?

For example, 'seeing a beam of red light', this event happened.

What is the essence of red light? Is it 'red', or 'electromagnetic waves of a specific wavelength', or 'hot', or 'sun' and other extended meanings?

What is the essence of red light? There is no way to find out. Just like what was argued before, no matter how you try to explore the essence, you will eventually find that it is empty and endless "why". It is because of this answer that Li Dao gave up the pursuit of the ultimate road.

So, what is the appearance of red light?

Is it "red"? Or something else?

No, it doesn't really matter, because for the Five Aggregates Demon, just slightly twist the Five Aggregates, and the red light will turn into blue light, or even apples or oranges.

Yes, twisting the Five Aggregates and twisting the information into another form is what the Five Aggregates Demon lineage is best at.

So, for the Five Aggregates Demon lineage.

I saw the red light. Is this red light real?

Li Qi thought about it.

The answer turned out to be: Yes!

In any case, to your subjective consciousness, the red light is real.

I saw the red light, that is the red light, even if I am actually color blind, or my mind has been distorted by the Five Aggregates Demon, but to my subjective consciousness, that is the red light.

Similarly, the world is the same.

How I perceive this world is what this world is like.

My perception is the appearance of this world, because no matter what the essence of this world is, it can only enter my subjective consciousness in the way of being ‘perceived by me’.

This is ‘what is important is not the performance, nor the essence, but the ‘interpretation’. ’

The most important thing in this world is how ‘I’ ‘interpret’ this world.

Why do we need to find the ultimate way?

It is because we want to interpret this world.

From this point of view, the Five Aggregates Demon lineage is also crazy!

What they pursue is not the interpretation of objective reality, but the interpretation of their own subjective will!

Therefore, the Five Aggregates Demon distorts not the human senses, but the interpretation of the ‘consciousness’ of this world, and holds the interpretation of this world in their own hands, so... they have the final say in this world.

There is no extreme and crazy egoism like the Heavenly Demon.

There is no violent destructiveness like the Death Demon.

But...

That feeling of being high and mighty, and treating the world as a toy in one's hands, is not weak at all.

Sure enough, it is still the path of magic.

However, Li Qi couldn't figure out why the Five Elements Demon came to him.

"Senior... I understand your conclusion, but I'm afraid I can't agree with it for the time being." Li Qi said so.

"You don't need to agree. I just told you all this. By the way, I'll give you another gift." The existence who claimed to be the Five Elements Demon said so.

Then, Li Qi suddenly felt that his "True Knowing Rhyme" had five more strands.

A full five strands, even more than Li Qi had before.

"This thing can make you directly aware of the existence of "information", and it can also make you more intuitively understand the so-called "interpretation". It's a very good thing. I give it to you... It's considered returning it to its original owner." The Five Elements Demon said so.

The next moment, time began to flow.

Everything returned to normal.

Li Qi was finally able to move, which made him look back.

Looking back, there was nothing, everything seemed to have never happened.

But... the strength of the true knowledge has doubled... about five times.

That's right, it's multiplied, not five times, but five times.

Li Qi unfolded the true knowledge, and it was only a moment, this Dao rhyme... No, this is not just the level of Dao rhyme, this is a usable 'Dao rule'!

The so-called 'Dao rhyme' is actually the world, wonders, magic weapons, or the debris of the 'Dao' of high-quality practitioners.

And a complete avenue is the embodiment of a practitioner's life.

Although the true knowledge in Li Qi's hand is not as good as a complete avenue, it has already gone beyond the level of 'Dao rhyme'. This is no longer a wreckage. If you have to describe it... it should be called 'part'.

"Part?" Feeling the infinite spread of true knowledge in the desire world, Li Qi couldn't help but sigh as he easily obtained hundreds of times more information than before.

Moreover, it seems that it can continue to expand, and it has not reached its limit at all. The reason why it has only expanded to hundreds of times is because Li Qi can only process so much information for the time being.

It is Li Qi who has reached the limit, not the true knowledge.

So, if it is complete ‘true knowledge’, what is the effect?

What does the demon think? (End of this chapter)
