Chapter 428 Expulsion

"I once heard a story from a doctor friend," Bisji suddenly said, "a young man who had a car accident claimed that his biological parents were fakes. When he was in front of them, he thought they were strangers. But when he answered his parents' phone and only listened to their voices, he was sure that they were indeed his parents. It's very strange, right?"

Huh? Killua was confused.

Xiaodi asked, "Because of the difference in vision and hearing?"

"Yes!" Biscuit snapped his fingers in his white silk gloves. "The car accident caused damage to the visual area of ​​the young man's cerebral cortex, making it impossible for him to connect the visual signals received by his eyes with the emotions he has for his parents. Therefore, even though his biological parents are right in front of him, he only thinks they are a pair of 'strangers' who look exactly like his own parents."

Jing Yang said: "But the auditory nerves are not damaged, and the connection with the neurons that store emotions for parents is intact, so it is not affected?"

"Yes!" Biscuit snapped his fingers again.

"So?" Killua interrupted, feeling absurd and unconvinced, "What do you want to say?"

Biscuit tapped Killua's forehead and smiled: "Just a little damage to the cerebral cortex can completely cut off a person's love for his biological parents. Isn't it scary?"

Biscuit, who looks like a lolita but is a middle-aged woman in her fifties, sighed, "Dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, endorphins... just a tiny change in the chemical elements in the brain can turn a person's emotions and cognition upside down. When I was learning martial arts from President Netero, a Taoist priest of the Dragon and Tiger School mentioned a term called 'cultivation of the truth', which left a deep impression on me. In cultivation of the truth, the 'self' is an illusion, but a false illusion does not necessarily mean that the 'true self' cannot be cultivated."

Netero smiled and said, "The old Taoist died the following year. It's rare that you still remember him."

Xiao Di was surprised and asked, "What Bisiji calls cultivation is to cultivate the false self into the true self?"

Jing Yang said: "In other words, it means that when one cultivates to such a level that one's self-awareness can completely break free from the limitations of the flesh, no matter whether it is dopamine or this substance or that substance, or that brain region or that neuron, it cannot affect 'me' in the slightest?"

This requires cyber ascension, right?
Is this why Pe chose to transform himself into a digital life and upload it to the Internet?

He couldn't help but say, "But, it can be done, right? As long as you develop this kind of telepathic ability, the soul can leave the body, and the telepathic power can be used to split the body. There are many ways, and it's also very simple!"

Biscuit said leisurely, "Isn't 'thought' a substance?"

Jing Yang choked.

Netero said slowly: "Matter and consciousness, body and spirit, are inseparable yin and yang. Life energy, qi, mind, no matter what you call it, is the same. Qi is excavated from the body, but if there is no spiritual guidance, what kind of mind can we practice? If qi does not have spiritual properties, how can the mind-reader use qi?"

Jing Yang listened thoughtfully: "Since you mentioned the concept of yin and yang, that is to say..."

Netero said: "The longer the energy in the natural environment exists, the weaker the spiritual attributes it contains. The yang is strong and the yin is weak. If you rashly introduce that kind of thing into your body, you will simply end up killing yourself."

Biscuit added: "Even if some Nen users can borrow energy from nature, they are usually 'places' such as forests and oceans that are already full of countless lives."

"The Yin attribute is not that weak," Xiaodi guessed, "so it can be borrowed? If it is natural energy with the spiritual attribute completely wiped out, to humans, it is just a huge corpse that cannot be pushed."

Jing Yang had a strange look on his face. What on earth was that thing his buddy had inhaled?

He asked Netero: "According to what you said, my magic should not have been successful from the beginning."

"Indeed." Netero nodded.

"But not only did I succeed, I also made you succeed as well." Jing Yang clasped his hands together, his mind energy surged, and he also conjured up a hundred forms of Guanyin behind him, which were very lifelike. "What do you mean? If the natural energy we introduced into our bodies is something that causes an imbalance of yin and yang, then we should have gone astray a long time ago, right?"

Netero said: "Everything I just said is based on the identity of a human being. But what if you were not a human being from the beginning?" What the hell?

Jing Yang was really shocked, who was he calling a non-human?
"When I say that the yin and yang of nature's qi are out of balance, I am referring to our qi which is in balance."

Netero stroked his beard slowly. "Even if the energy in the natural environment is strong in Yang and weak in Yin, it is still safe and sound. It is because we, as human beings, need spiritual stability to maintain the balance of Yin and Yang. Nature does not need spirit, so there is no such thing as balance. Or maybe, people like him were born in an environment with abundant natural energy..."

At the end, Netero looked at Naniga behind Killua, "A special gas life. What kind of existence is his spirit and self? I really can't even imagine it."

Killua became nervous. How did this old man know about Naniga?

Netero said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous. We have seen many of these little guys in the Dark Continent."

Jing Yang asked in confusion: "So, what exactly do you want to say, old man?"

Bisiji crossed his arms and said, "He said that the reason you were able to successfully achieve the 'immortal method' is because your spirit was different from that of ordinary people from the beginning - ordinary people here refer to all human beings."

Netero looked at Jing Yang and said meaningfully: "Your self-awareness is not bound to the flesh. It is something more transcendent. How should I put it? 'True Self'..."

"That's why you can sense the omnipresent natural energy and use the power of the imbalance of yin and yang. Because if you want to talk about imbalance, your own existence is originally unbalanced." Biscuit paused, looked at Jingyang and then at Naniga, "Perhaps you and him are more like the same kind. Jingyang, you want to go to the Dark Continent so much, isn't it some kind of instinct to return home?"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"Mother-in-law, isn't it a bit too much to directly excommunicate me..." Jing Yang was punched by Bisiji before he could finish his words.

In other words, his own magic of enlightenment is essentially to create a temporary "true self" for Xiaodi, Biscuit, Netero and others?
Netero agreed with this guess.

Xiao Di asked curiously, "Then when the progress of the natural system exceeds 50%, will the temporary true self become permanent? The true true self?"

According to this line of thinking, I was the real me from the beginning, so the reason I’m stuck at 49% is simply because my level is not good enough?
Jing Yang looked at Netero and said, "President, you said before that you can't exceed 50% even if you don't want to. What do you mean? I don't understand. What do you mean by not wanting to?"

Netero gave him a strange look. "If it's more than 50%, I'm afraid you can't even call yourself a human being anymore. I've been a human for over a hundred years, and I don't plan to change."

Xiaodi said bluntly: "The reason why you have such a stubborn idea is that it is also the instinct of this human body to maintain the status quo?"

Netero smiled and said, "Maybe! It doesn't matter if it is or not, it's all the same, I don't mind."

"Why?" Xiaodi asked curiously.

Biscuit said leisurely with his hands behind his back, "If self-consciousness is an illusion, then our true self is actually the totality of this body. Each DNA is the basic code that makes up us, and these codes will change. From a macro perspective, the human group is constantly evolving because of these changes. From an individual perspective, we are also constantly reshaping ourselves with these changes. We are innocent when we are young, we are not confused when we are middle-aged, and we follow our hearts and minds when we are old. Abandoning this body and abandoning our human identity is probably just a fixed program that never changes. The state of the spirit is permanently fixed at the moment when it is untied from the body."

Jing Yang asked: "The reason why you have such a self-evident thought is that this human body has an instinct to maintain the status quo, isn't it?"

Biscuit said unhappily: "It's just a parrot!"

Jing Yang spread his hands.

Anyway, I am determined to reach 100% to see what level it is at.
