Chapter 209 Analysis and Unexpected Surprises
After leaving Qingzhou, we went all the way to the 800-li Qinchuan in Guanzhong of the Daqian Dynasty.
The drought had not yet come here, and there was lush greenery everywhere. It was spring, and the grass and trees were more vibrant.
At this moment, the long night was like a cover, covering the four seas.
The mountains and fields in the distance stretched and undulated in the dim night, like a dormant dragon. The mist rose from the forest and kept changing under the new moonlight, sometimes condensing like a long snake exhaling, and sometimes drifting like butterflies flying.
A fire kept jumping in the night.
This is an ancient temple.
The stone lamp was covered with moss, and vines were creeping along the wall. Even the Buddha statues in the temple were covered with dust.
Lin Chen and Xu Yue were sitting by the fire, and then roasting the prey they had just caught.
"Brother Lin, why don't you see the man from the aristocratic family next to you?"
"Oh, he is still useful. I arranged him to go somewhere else."
"Is that so..." Xu Yue responded, poked the fire with the stick in his hand, and fell silent. Lin Chen did not continue to speak, and the scene fell into silence for a while.
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Yue hesitated again and again, and finally said, "Brother Lin, what do you think of the Huangtian method of governing the world proposed by Taiping Dao?"
"What do you think..." Lin Chen paused for a long time before sighing softly, "A very good way."
"The Gu worm only parasitizes the human body, only transmits data to consciousness and law enforcement, and does not control people's thoughts. In this way, it will not turn everyone into a Zerg that only obeys orders."
"Instead, it retains its wisdom and thoughts, which to a great extent retains the creativity and imagination of a society and provides it with a source of continuous innovation."
"And the upper echelons who control the entire society and have the power and interests of the entire society are as cold and ruthless as the way of heaven. Without partiality, there will be no artificial exploitation and oppression."
"They also use the most fair mathematics to connect the upper and lower levels, govern the society with mathematics, and transform the output, consumption, and even operation of the entire society into a constantly changing mathematical model to find the best implementation plan."
There was a hint of admiration in Lin Chen's tone.
"Of course, their path is not without hidden dangers. But they also have enough backup plans."
"Before leaving, we have observed that the death of the worm mother will not affect the host of the parasitic Gu worm, which means that if the upper layer is invaded, they can directly self-destruct to avoid affecting the whole world."
"And the heart-eating Gu in people's bodies can be artificially eliminated, that is to say, if there is a problem with their path, future generations can choose to directly expel the Gu worm and move towards a brighter path..."
"Eliminate the exploiting class, let the world gain eternal peace, and maintain the vitality of society's continuous upward development, and just in case, leave enough means to overthrow them. What did this little guy experience in ten years that he came up with such a method..."
"So in this way, isn't this a true way to eternal peace?" Xu Yue didn't care about Lin Chen's inexplicable words later, but flashed an inexplicable light in his eyes.
If this road is really so perfect, then perhaps it is really a road to heaven for all people in the world.
But what he didn't expect was that Lin Chen looked at him and shook his head and said, "This is not necessarily true."
"Huh?" Xu Yue was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you just say..."
"In the early days of the creation of etiquette and law, everyone abided by it, and since then, the Spring and Autumn Period of 800 years has begun. The formation of morality has given birth to human nature and established civilization. The birth of law has regulated the entire world and condensed order..." Lin Chen said lightly.
"All of this started out beautifully, but the sages underestimated time and human nature. So, I don't know if this path is correct."
"I believe that the people of Taipingdao also have this concern, so they let us go and left the biggest variable. After all, the world's running water does not rot, and the door hinges do not rot. Only by keeping changing forever can the future have more possibilities."
After hearing this, Xu Yue was silent for a long time.
He thought of the high-ranking officials of the Taiping Dao who had become like wood, their emotions and humanity completely worn away, and they were even ready to die. He couldn't help but sigh: "If they were in ancient times, they would be the sages of the generation."
"The leader of the Taiping Dao, he deserves this name. The Taiping Dao is also qualified to bear this name." What Xu Yue didn't know was that Lin Chen's feelings were deeper than his.
Originally, he spread the method of inner alchemy, just wanting to simply create a martial arts golden elixir and walk out his own golden elixir road.
But unexpectedly, this small Daqian Dynasty is really full of talents.
The method of holding the elixir, the way of Gangqi, the illusion of reality, the human brain computer array, the blood art, the return of the flesh to become a saint, and the method of Taiping...
In fact, Lin Chen originally thought that as long as the holding elixir continued to extend, condensed the human body's spirit, and engraved it into the inner elixir, his golden elixir road would have a way forward.
After all, what he wanted was the specific method and data to engrave the information of his own spirit into the spiritual energy. Whether it was active or inert was not the key.
So as long as the method of holding the elixir in the martial arts continued to study and evolve, he could get the result he wanted most.
As for the others, it was really a pleasant surprise.
For example, after careful analysis of Xu Yue's Gang Qi, Lin Chen found that he could directly transfer to the system of spiritual energy cultivation, and he could continue on.
Now, as long as he has the spiritual stone and integrates its spiritual energy into the Gang Qi, he can easily break through several levels and achieve foundation building.
Even for future cultivation, you don't need to condense the golden elixir, but place your self-consciousness in this Gang Qi. You can completely achieve the style of the ancient Qi refiner in the Taoist legend of Lin Chen's previous life!
The purple energy stretches across thirty thousand miles, and the world respects me as a true immortal!
Another example is the Taoist dream world and Chen Huan's illusion method.
Since the inner alchemy method is only practiced, it can only be achieved by blinding people's senses or modifying the brain. It is still unable to truly penetrate into the soul and distort the world.
But if they are exposed to aura, aura that can be transformed into all things, then it will not be as simple as the five senses and the brain, but will truly go deep into the soul and reverse reality.
By then, their abilities may be comparable to the legendary [Demon] and [Nightmare]!
‘In fact, the research on these two is the most dangerous. The other results are all based on the research on the essence and Qi in the three flowers of the human body. Even the method of peace is just using the inner elixir to cultivate and guide the mutated Gu insects with the accumulated essence and blood. At the same time, it involves some spiritual Contact on...'
'But illusions are different from dreams. These two things can really make people crazy...especially the Taoist dream method. ’
Thinking of this, Lin Chen couldn't help but frown slightly.
The illusion was okay, but the more Lin Chen studied dreams, the more he felt something was wrong, and a very strange premonition arose in his heart.
This feeling was the same as when he first learned about Tianji Technique and the existence of luck.
He always felt that dreams, heavenly magic, and even luck itself were completely incompatible with this world of spiritual cultivation.
It felt like...an outsider.
'I would rather use the soul computer to build a virtual world than create a dream world. I just always feel that there might be something underneath the dream that I cannot touch at this level...'
'The Dao Sect is just a half-finished dream, and most of it is a virtual world composed of information. There may not be any problems, but if it sinks into the depths of the dream, I'm afraid...'
Um?
Lin Chen, who was thinking, suddenly paused slightly and turned his head to look out the door.
"Is someone coming?" Xu Yue also sensed this.
"Seems like an ordinary old man." Xu Yue seemed to see the scene outside even though he was separated by a wall and a wooden door.
"An ordinary old man?" Lin Chen couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "How can an ordinary old man appear in the wilderness and still seem to be fine?"
"This..." Xu Yue's words paused, and he secretly prepared himself for action.
But Lin Chen raised his head, as if looking into the distance, and said with some surprise in his tone: "No wonder the ancients said that you should not enter the temple when you are there. It turns out that entering does not do any good."
"But what day is it today? Why are there so many interesting guys here?"
