Chapter 151 The Possibility of Life "Cultivation"

What is the essence of life?
From a biological point of view, it focuses on two points - metabolism and intergenerational reproduction.

The former is the survival basis of individual life, and the latter is the foundation of the continuation of life race.

Of all things in nature, only the form of life, which is an object, shows the characteristics of a short-term anti-entropy body. Although the ultimate ultimate life will eventually die, the race will also perish, and it will move towards the irreversible ultimate direction of the universe, which is entropy increase. However, at least in the initial time, the orderly entropy reduction expressed by life is real.

The root of it is the orderly utilization of energy and matter, input energy to rearrange the matter that makes up itself, so that these matter always maintain regular order and reduce their own chaos.

This is the essence of life.

Li Heng was sitting cross-legged on the floor of the central stone room. He had been sitting here for a day and a night. Since celebrating the anniversary of his parents' death, he had entered into self-cultivation non-stop.

This kind of "retreat" is not the kind of dry sitting improvement mentioned in martial arts fantasy novels. A more strict description should be called-traversing oneself.

Traversal is a very commonly used concept in the field of computer science. To put it bluntly, it is "look one by one", usually using a loop program.

Li Heng's current situation is similar. He is using his mental power to scan himself cyclically, starting from the microscopic structure of his own biological structure, and performing very precise and meticulous traversal, just like a super lathe calibration machine.

Although he currently can't scan every cell, the order of magnitude is too big, about a trillion billion!

This astronomical magnitude is difficult to analyze and store even with the most advanced supercomputing and array disks with the largest storage capacity in the world. Therefore, his scanning level is still at the level of tiny tissue units consisting of hundreds of millions of cells. superior.

But even so, the order of magnitude that needs to be traversed and scanned has reached a million, which can be called a super project.

This is not something that can be accomplished overnight. Li Heng naturally knows the truth that haste makes waste. So far, his "traversal objects" have mainly focused on several core internal organs, arterial nerves, and meridian hubs.

And the reason why he wants to start such a vast "human body engineering" is to pave the way for his next step - building a foundation!
Yes, you heard it right, he is about to attack the "foundation establishment" realm on the road of "cultivation".

Could it be that Li Heng is really cultivating immortals?Or have you found the way to cultivate immortality?

In fact, his real plan was even more outrageous than finding the way to cultivate immortality.

He wants to create his own "path to comprehension"!
There is no road in front of him, everything is unknown, and most of the so-called previous experiences are ambiguous and specious theories. He has learned some knowledge from it, but he cannot fully use it. Neither suits him.

In that case, why not dig my own way?
As long as we can go on and verify, it makes no difference whether the so-called "law of cultivation" was created by the ancient sages or myself.

There is no way of practice in the world, so I will create one myself.

In fact, he had had a vague concept in his mind a long time ago, and he was constantly practicing it himself. It was not until recently that he had some relatively clear ideas.

The most critical turning point is that he has mastered his own bioelectricity!
The completion of the "Divine Power of Transformation" is undoubtedly a huge leap for him, not only has his combat power been qualitatively improved, but more importantly, he has excellent means to deduce himself.

In modern times, he has already "carried" his own neural electrical signals into biological currents, and used this mechanism far exceeding the normal electrochemical power to complete the transmission of neural signals. In an instant, his biological information transmission rate and quantity have risen to a higher level. , It's like changing from a 2G small water pipe to a [-]M optical fiber!
In the past, although his brain was very powerful and had the ability to rival high-speed computers, he still relied on the original "old" nervous system when it came to directing his body, making his signal transmission always stay at the human limit.

It wasn't until he was able to finely use biological circuits for "signal amplification" that his reaction speed, brain frequency, and computing power all increased by leaps and bounds, which finally allowed him to break through the human biological ceiling barrier.

And this is also the confidence that he was able to start such a huge project of "traversing himself"-only when the Internet speed is up, can such a large-scale work be completed.

"Building a foundation in a hundred days, absorbing energy into the body..."

Gently chanting this alchemy scripture that is already very familiar, Li Heng now has a new understanding of these two sentences.

According to his philosophy, at this time, he has already gone through the earliest stage on this "road of cultivation" - absorbing energy into the body.

According to Xiuxian's novel, he has now left the Qi refining period and is entering the "foundation building" stage.

In fact, according to his performance and actual strength, he should already "break through the realm", instead of staying at the stage of "absorbing energy into the body".

The reason why he failed to "establish the foundation" was because this realm had not yet been developed and was waiting for him to "create".

Before he thought about it, the highest state of practice in this world was "qi training".

"Refining qi, that is, absorbing qi into the body, to put it bluntly, it is to develop other energies that the human body can directly introduce into the natural world"

The reason is also very simple, but it is difficult for human beings.

The most effective way for human beings to take in energy is always food, through which they can capture the energy embodied by other life forms to support themselves.

Although there are various and complex energies in nature, they are all "foreign objects" to the human body, and the direct use of foreign objects is a huge problem for the human body.

The human body does not have corresponding organs to "digest and absorb" processing.

"The so-called aura, of course, is not real 'qi', it is meant to refer to the complex energy forms in the natural world, such as sunlight and moonlight, wind and rain stars, lead and mercury ore, earth vein electromagnetic, plant essence...etc."

So there is no spiritual recovery in the world at all, or the spiritual energy has never faded!
Unless one day the sun explodes, the earth cools down, everything withers, and everything dies, then it will be called the end of the age when the aura dissipates, or simply called the end.

So aura has always existed, but humans cannot directly use it.

Human beings are not born to "cultivate Taoism and become immortals", and the basic hardware configuration does not have this function.

If it weren't for the opportunity provided by [Transformation into Saint], Li Heng would not be able to touch this level and understand these mysteries.

"In fact, I have reached the state of absorbing energy into the body a long time ago. It has already begun since I can feel the 'qi field' of other creatures and the 'potential' of mountains and rivers."

Whether he used the special environment formed by the fungus in the cave in his hometown to nourish his breath, or used the five poisons to refine elixir, and later practiced alchemy, he breathed out every day at sunrise and morning light, and even entered the Tibetan essence to absorb this special medicine. The energy in the compound, until now he can directly sit here and lead the "sha" of the earth veins into the body, in fact, it is to induce the energy of foreign objects in nature to enter the body, and digest, absorb, melt and transform it.

They may be some kind of vegetation, some chemical substances, or even radiation, something that can't be seen clearly...

However, they can all be called "reiki" in a broad sense.

And his practice method has always been "refining Qi", and as his understanding of himself became clearer recently, Li Heng also felt the limit of this kind of melting and transformation, and he himself had already approached this limit.

If he can travel to the world of cultivating immortals, Li Heng can also say "without shame": "I am also an entry-level monk at the ninth level of Qi refining."

Of course, he is the only one on this earth who can practice the so-called "qi refining method" and "absorbing qi into the body". The kind that comes back.

As long as he can "traverse and scan" the micro-microbial structure of his body as much as possible and understand the mechanism, he can start the next step of "foundation building".

According to the novels of Xiuxian, usually after a certain stage of qi refining, the "spiritual energy" incorporated into the body is transformed into enough "spiritual power", and then the "spiritual power" is condensed to form a liquid with a higher concentration of "spiritual energy". liquid".

But as I said before, the aura in reality refers to natural energy in general, not a real gas. Of course, the outrageous phenomenon of condensation and liquefaction cannot occur.

But looking at it from another angle, this idea is actually correct. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than that after the disposable energy rises to a gradient, if you want to continue to increase power within a limited range (human body), you need to increase the energy density.

Just like changing a sulfuric acid battery to a lithium battery, the latter has a higher energy density, so it is also understandable to use the intuitive transformation of "gas" to "liquid" as an abstraction.

Li Heng can basically say that he has touched the upper limit of this energy density.

Even if he sits here every day and meditates non-stop, attracting the earth into his body, he can't improve without limit, because his own energy tolerance has a limit.

[Sha] is like a special "radiation" produced from the earth, which stimulates his body all the time. When the "radiation" passes through his body, it induces his cells to produce certain chemical substances, and part of the energy It is stored in his body in the form of this chemical energy.

However, this kind of high-energy substance cannot be produced without limit. It is impossible to accumulate this energy storage substance indefinitely in normal cells, and there are a lot of other life activities going on in the cell space.

At this point, the bottleneck of receiving Qi into the body or the realm of refining Qi has been revealed, and the energy has reached the upper limit.

If it is just the survival needs of ordinary people, this energy level is completely sufficient or even exceeds too many conventional needs.

But for a transcendent like Li Heng, who sometimes needs to overthrow an army by himself, it may not be so.

Especially after mastering power generation and control, Li Heng felt more and more the rate of energy loss. In the past, he only released energy in the form of ordinary human activities such as punching, kicking, jumping, and running. It is also kinetic energy or thermal energy, and the abundant energy stored in the body seems to be inexhaustible.

But after mastering the high-power "output method" of directly controlling the current and releasing electromagnetic pulses, it is a bit stretched in an instant.

According to the novels of cultivating immortals, these supernatural powers consume spiritual power, and non-qi refining monks can control them.

Then the only way is to improve the realm, "expand" yourself, and increase the energy density.

Transform the current relatively "thin" energy form into higher-density bio-energy.

Li Heng's idea is also very simple and straightforward. In fact, in humans or most animals, there is a similar mechanism-energy storage substances with different energy densities.

Fat is the energy compound with the highest density in animals. Animals differentiate special fat cells to store fat and store energy for emergency needs.

Li Heng's thinking is also similar. Since there is an upper limit to the high-energy substances that ordinary cells can store, he will differentiate a special kind of cells, which will be responsible for storing the energy substances and transforming and releasing them when needed without doing anything!

This is the so-called "condensation of gas into liquid". Ordinary cells can only store high-energy substances equivalent to about one-thousandth of their own cytoplasm, but this specialized cell uses all the cell space except for a few necessary organelles. As an energy storage space, it has reached about half of the total cytoplasm, and compared to this, the energy density has instantly increased by [-] times!
This is a very exaggerated improvement, which means that Li Heng in the "foundation period" in the extreme state will be five hundred times stronger than he is now!
Of course, this kind of argument is impossible. After all, it is impossible for him to convert all the cells in his body into energy storage cells. That would just turn him into a super bomb, unless he wants to play a game of self-explosion for fun.

The normal way is naturally to store the differentiation of this part of the high-density energy cells in a certain part of the body, and unlike fat cells, they must not be exposed to the vulnerable parts of the body surface.

Fat has its own defects, and the process of releasing energy is very long and slow, which is also the reason for its safety, and can even serve as a buffer and defense layer.

But this kind of "foundation building cell" is different. In order to meet the requirement of instant access to energy when needed, its energy substance cannot be released too slowly, which means that it will not be too stable and must not be easily attacked. Otherwise, it will explode directly.

After thinking about it, the most suitable location for this energy storage part is the dantian. It is far away from the key organs such as the heart and lungs, and at the same time it is located at the hub of several major meridians. It can naturally become a channel for transmitting energy. "It can infuse all the limbs and bones of the whole body, and at the same time, the muscles here are condensed, and the body itself is under the strong body surface protection.

In this way, under the dantian, it becomes the sea of ​​vitality that is the source of energy for the whole body.

Li Heng called this energy storage organ composed entirely of high-energy cells—the Sea of ​​Qi!
