Wandao long distance

Chapter 1066 Next step

  What is there to contain subjective mental consciousness?

After the devil wiped out Li Qi's subjective will and soul, where did Li Qi's soul go?

According to what the Tathagata has preached, the mind should be "immortal".

Even if there is death, even if there is destruction, there is still reincarnation.

In the cycle of reincarnation again and again, the mind gradually becomes clearer, gradually "awakens", and then realizes the reality of the mind, acquires long-term memory, and finally awakens and becomes a Buddha.

The heart is immortal, the heart is the foundation of all things, and everyone has his or her own "heart".

The interaction between hearts can only be achieved through a subtle, indescribable way that only the heart itself can understand.

But I've said it before.

This approach is 'arrogant'.

  So what's the non-self-righteous way to do it?

A way to live in harmony with the immortality of the soul while bypassing high walls and connecting with others.

In fact, there are.

That is Haotian’s favorite thing.

music.

The origin of all music and its true meaning which has almost been forgotten by the world.

In ancient times, music, dance and any other artistic activities were part of witchcraft.

This is also one of the means of performing witchcraft.

It starts with rhythm, the art of drumming developed by clapping, stomping feet, and hitting various primitive instruments such as palms, wood, etc., allowing many people to "keep in time" with each other.

Through this ritual, the shamans allow their breathing, heartbeats and emotions to blend into the same rhythm, arousing the power within people.

Thus, the original power was born. Many warriors would gain courage from this ceremony. They could feel integrated with the people around them, and then they would fight with great bravery.

Music has maintained this original, pure essential characteristic - a characteristic related to the "heart", and its history is longer than that of any other art form. People only need to briefly look back at the discussions of countless great people on music to understand this.

When the world is at peace and all things are at peace, and everything is transformed into the upper realm, happiness can be achieved.

To achieve happiness, one must control one's desires. If one does not control one's desires, then happiness can be pursued.

The art of pursuing happiness must come from equality. Equality comes from fairness, and fairness comes from the Way.

Therefore, only those who have attained the Tao can be involved in music.

All music is the harmony of heaven and earth, and the balance of yin and yang.

Music plays a dominant role in the whole world.

This is true from the baryon acoustic oscillations of ancient times to the music controlled by witches and shamans.

People even believe that the rise and fall of music is directly related to culture, morality, and even the state of the entire Taoist tradition.

The powerful people who are good at music are given the important task of strictly guarding the purity of the "tone", which is called "zheng", so this title is also called "yuezheng".

Even in humanity, the decline of music has become a sure symbol of the demise of a dynasty and a civilization.

Humanity has recorded many terrible stories, describing all kinds of decadent music that go against the will of heaven. For example, the "Qing Shang" and "Qing Jiao" are known as the "sounds of the country's destruction." Once these blasphemous tunes were played in the imperial palace, the sky would suddenly darken, the city walls would collapse, and the dynasty and civilization would immediately perish.

Music is like the ever-expanding ripples in a pond. As wishes and ideas spread, people's hearts are brought together through music.

"So, has it been hidden?" In the formless realm, the great music master Chang Qin said to his younger brother.

Zhu Fengdan didn't say anything.

They just stared at the Formless Realm nervously. This thing was their only shelter and the only way for them to get close to Taiyi's body.

  While saying this, he was also composing a new 'score'.

Music is not the five-line score. In fact, the five-line score is just a description of "music".

This is similar to what happens in the field of mathematical symbolic logic.

Those symbols are not mathematics, they are just tools to describe mathematics.

In the process of analyzing and studying music, people began to capture the flow of music using physical and mathematical formulas, forming a visible "score".

Soon after, music began to use this playful method to measure the formation of language structures, just as physics measures the changing processes of nature.

Since then, people have continued to discover abstract formulas obtained from this path, through new relationships, new analogies and new points of connection.

For example, a series formed by the components of a certain wave being separated and arranged according to a certain variable feature, just as the saying goes, "all elegant music is composed first and then the score is completed."

First there is music, then there is the score.

The score is the formula that describes the music.

As for other things, such as history and greater paths, they are all described as "composing". If you are not good at doing things or are not trusted, you will be called "unreliable".

This is enough to show the importance of "score".

What they are currently compiling in the formless realm is the 'score'.

A kind of music that can communicate the understanding of the soul.

At this moment, there was a great battle going on in the outside world. The Heavenly Demon was using all his strength to promote the decay of his vitality, and so was Yao Ji. However, Haotian was happy to see it happen and chose to wait and see.

The other first-rank ones are trying their best to delay the decay of their vital energy and use all means to prevent the arrival of the Dharma Ending Age.

The shamans' great music master, the long zither, was one of Wu Xian's "methods".

Wu Xian tried many methods, no one knew how many, but Chang Qin and Zhu Fengdan knew clearly that they were one of the methods. For this reason, Wu Xian even forcefully captured Wushijietian.

This is a difficult task. The Formless Realm was originally in the hands of the Zombie Demon Prince, but was later taken away by the Heavenly Demon. Wu Xian paid a huge price to take back the Formless Realm.

All of this was done in order to utilize the formless realm's concealing power to allow them to sneak into Taiyi's body.

Taiyi's real body was defeated by Haotian, but his body remained with the zombie Li Qi.

Zhu Fengdan and Changqin were in the middle of this ambush.

If they can succeed, they may be able to take Taiyi's body back, and then they may be able to find a chance to turn the tables.

"It's almost done. We should not be discovered." Zhu Fengdan said.

"According to Wu Xian's idea, this may be a big trump card. He really thinks highly of us." Chang Qin said with a smile.

Zhu Fengdan said nothing and continued to compose as it should be.

The personalities of the two brothers seemed to have reversed.

Normally during their interactions, Zhu Fengdan was the one who talked nonstop, while Changqin was the one who smiled and listened quietly beside her.

But when it came to this real battle where even a first-rank official had to risk his life, Prince Changqin spoke more, while Zhu Fengdan just buried his head in his work in silence.

"Brother." At this time, Zhu Fengdan suddenly spoke.

"You say." Changqin smiled.

Zhu Fengdan said: "Father is still serving Haotian, and Haotian is willing to accept the decay of his vital energy just to see what everything will look like after the decay. You say, for him..."

However, when he said this, he was interrupted by Changqin.

"There's no need to speculate so much. Father is the most orthodox god. He is different from us after all. For him, following the Emperor of Heaven is the only choice." Chang Qin did not question Zhu Rong, but stopped Zhu Fengdan from thinking in this direction. There's no need.

Zhu Rong is the Lord of Fire, the controller of the 'fire' among the five elements. He is almost one of the first witnesses of Haotian. Even as the first god, he is one of the most experienced ones.

The primordial energy becomes chaotic energy, and then chaos differentiates into yin and yang energy, the five elements and five energy, and so on to the next level of energy.

The so-called "one yuan, two principles, three talents, four images, five elements and six combinations", the "one yuan" here refers to the vital energy.

As one of the five elements, Zhurong is a natural supporter of Haotian.

On the contrary, Emperor Hundun and Emperor Jun began to disobey Haotian because of their different attitudes towards mortals.

However, in this war, when Haotian showed his complete indifference to mortals, Emperor Hundun also turned against him and returned to the service of the Emperor of Heaven.

This is the command power of the Emperor of Heaven over all the gods.

Although Yao Ji is still the "remnant of Haotian" and has become the main factor leading to the decay of Yuan Qi, Haotian is still Haotian.

It’s really... indescribably powerful.

After all, both Zhu brothers witnessed once again the might of Haotian suppressing almost all the first-grade masters. Taiyi and Renhuang were no match for Haotian at all.

There is still a long way to go for humanity to replace heaven with man.

With the successive deaths of two human emperors, humanity is probably entering a period of serious decline. I wonder if the three ministers can hold on until the next human emperor takes the throne.

The position of the Human Emperor has been vacant before. It's not uncommon for humanity to have been divided at that time, and it was also a time of chaos.

As they said these words, the two finally arrived at Taiyi's body under the protection of the formless realm.

Taichi's body...

Just by looking at that body, you can feel its greatness.

All the 'living beings' we usually talk about actually live within Taiyi's body.

Only the space and time such as "the heavens" independently opened up by beings above the third level are independent of Taiyi's body.

Of course, the many possible branches that are independent of the real universe and opened up above the second level are also outside.

These independent time and space are of course also part of the 'universe'. After all, the universe is all time and all time, but it is not the 'universe' in the cognitive sense of sentient beings.

The universe as understood by ordinary cosmic civilization is the universe governed by star officials and the universe where gods truly exist.

What those higher intelligences usually call the real universe is Taiyi's body.

A supreme symbolic form of harmony and perfection, a most subtle and delicate way of existence.

The existence of Taiyi allows individuals to transcend all individuals and multiplicities and reach a single self-soul, that is, to achieve the complete manifestation of divinity.

This is the first-class celestial god.

Those thinkers once regarded the lives of all living beings and their various goals as a kind of "process" leading to divinity, and believed that the diverse phenomenal world could only reach perfection and the ultimate goal in the divine unity and harmony.

And they are not wrong.

Taiyi is the complete embodiment of this ultimate goal.

The complete divinity of all living beings gathered together is Taiyi, the lord of the stars.

The star officials dominate many things in the real universe, and those civilizations also live in them. All the star officials together constitute the chaotic and contradictory structure of Taiyi.

And now, Zhu Fengdan and Prince Changqin, relying on the power of the second rank, are independent of the real universe, in their own time and space, quietly approaching the interior of Taiyi.

Keep going, keep going.

Finally, they arrived at the zombie Li Qi.

Here, zombie Li Qi is carrying Taiyi.

Zhu Fengdan's expression obviously became a little annoyed, because he knew that the person in front of him was just a zombie, not Li Qi.

But then he relaxed again.

He came here to wake up this zombie.

When zombie Li Qi saw Zhu Fengdan, he immediately transformed into a Dharma body and bowed to Zhu Fengdan: "Teacher, uncle, you are here? What is this?"

He looked curious.

Prince Changqin glanced at the zombie Li Qi.

Just from this one glance and what Li Qi said, he couldn't tell that Li Qi in front of him was already dead.

The devil's methods are truly terrifying.

If he used this trick on certain specific people and then let the zombies do certain things, there would probably be no loopholes to be found.

"Yes, we are here." Zhu Fengdan said.

"Teacher, uncle, what are you doing here? Is there anything I can help you with?" Li Qi asked.

"Stand still." Zhu Fengdan said, "I have something for you."

"Oh." Zombie Li Qi did not move, and even opened up his inner world.

Even though he is a zombie, he has memories and full intelligence, and he will still do what he thinks he should do.

In the zombies' memory, this is the time to do it.

Even the zombies themselves don't know what they are doing.

No... The zombie doesn't have a self at all. He just does what he 'should' do. He has no feeling of what he is doing.

Prince Changqin sighed: "It was not in vain that I accepted you as my disciple."

"Of course." Zhu Fengdan said with a smile.

Then, the two of them embedded the Formless Realm into the 'Three Realms' in Li Qi's body.

The Three Realms are creations that imitate the heavens of immortals. They are composed of the Desire Realm, the Form Realm, and the Formless Realm. They are essentially things of the first rank. Li Qi and the Demon Prince act as "thoughts" floating on the surface to manipulate the Three Realms and then participate in the First Rank War.

Even though the result was tragic.

It was just as tragic as Xiantian’s death.

Things like the immortal heaven can never beat the real first-class ones.

  But, have you spotted the blind spot?

Li Qi and the Demon Prince once transformed into "thoughts" floating on the surface of the Three Realms, and used that thin layer to control the entire Three Realms.

This is what Wu Xian wanted to do.

Zhu Fengdan and Prince Changqin began to assemble the three realms.

Then--

He uses the ability of music to communicate with the soul, and uses the long zither as the "score" of all the music of Wudao Dayuezheng, trying to wake up Li Qi.

Then, with the help of the four witch gods, he took over Taiyi's body!
