The reincarnation of the heavens begins with the path to immortality

Chapter 42 Who am I?
When another person's memory is forcibly inserted into a person's mind, is that person still the same person?Or will he become another person?

At the end of Zhetian, the empress said to Ye Fan: "It's not you, but if I inject his past and experience into your sea of ​​​​consciousness and never fail to reappear, maybe it will be you."

What does this mean?Will a person's understanding of himself change because of changes in his own memory?If Ye Fan is really injected with the past and experience of the Empress's brother, will Ye Fan become the Empress's brother?This is a bit too scary!

However, Shen Pingkang felt that it was really possible for the empress to do this. This woman was really a little crazy. What she remembered most deeply was the time spent with her brother when she was a child. She simply engraved this past in her heart. In her own soul, she even refined this past into her own Dao Fruit, and she has never forgotten it. Even if she becomes an Immortal Emperor hundreds of millions of years later, and even sacrifices to the Dao, as long as the Dao Fruit remains unchanged, she will not forget it. Just a few years have passed. If she wanted to attack Mark, erase his other memories and experiences, and inject her brother's past, maybe Mark would really become her brother, but she didn't do that. .

More importantly, what worries Shen Pingkang is that he himself is actually facing this kind of great terror. He traveled to the world of Zhetian and became the Immortal Lord. He also inherited the millions of years of memories of the Immortal Lord. Isn't it like being forced into another person's memory and past?

Compared with the millions of years of memory experience of the Immortal Lord, the memories and past of the past two to thirty years are really a very short memory. Although Shen Pingkang still firmly has his own knowledge and knows that he is Shen Pingkang, It was no longer Changsheng Tianzun, but he had to admit that he was still impacted by Changsheng Tianzun's long memory.

For example, he will miss the brilliance of the mythical age. Facing the desolate and lifeless Kaiyang Star Changshou Palace, he will also feel melancholy and reminisce about the memories like a real Immortal Lord. These are the memories brought to him by the Immortal Lord. However, in fact, Shen Pingkang is not the Immortal Lord, and has never experienced the experience of the Immortal Lord!
Could it be said that one's memory really affects one's cognition?This is still less than ten years. The time is short, and he has been affected by the memory of Changsheng Tianzun. But if it takes a long time, will he forget that he is Shen Pingkang, not Changsheng Tianzun. He comes from another time and space, and another The earth in the universe no longer belongs to this world?
Even after millions of years, if he looks back on the past, will he no longer be able to remember what his original world was like, what his parents were like?
He is no longer the original Shen Pingkang, but has become the Immortal Lord of this world. Those short memories of 30 to [-] years may be forgotten and never remembered again!

Just thinking of this, Shen Pingkang couldn't help but feel excited. He had not noticed this before, but after reading "Zhan Wo Ming Dao Jue" in "The Classic of Luan Gu", he discovered this problem of his own. This is a self-consciousness. Cognitive problems, subtle problems, this kind of subtle problem are the most difficult to solve!
After discussing the "Immortal Art" with Emperor Luan Gu, Shen Pingkang couldn't help but admire the empress's amazing talent for being able to create such a mysterious method.

Immediately, he naturally turned the topic to the "Zhan Wo Ming Dao Jue" in the "Luan Gu Jing". He asked with a smile: "Fellow Luan Gu Dao, to be honest, the "Luan Gu Jing" you created has too many achievements. Many places have borrowed the "Immortal Art" of this ruthless emperor. In fact, there are not many innovative techniques that you have actually invented. Only the "Zhan Wo Ming Dao Jue" is quite unique, but I don't know how you created such a method. The legal decision?"

I heard that Emperor Luan Gu was not angry at all, because Shen Pingkang was right, his talents were indeed limited, and his "Luan Gu Sutra" did draw on a lot of things from "Immortal Heavenly Power" and "Void Sutra" , especially "The Power of Immortality". Anyone who has read these scriptures can realize this.

However, he also has his own unique things, such as the Killing Wo Ming Dao Jue, which is his original method.

Emperor Luan Gu gave a bitter smile and sighed: "Fellow Taoist, you have a keen eye. It is true that this "Luan Gu Sutra" borrows a lot from "The Immortal Art of Heaven". My talents are limited and I can only do so!"

"As for this method of killing me, it is my own original method. Do fellow Taoists know my experience of becoming an emperor in the past? It was difficult for me to achieve enlightenment back then. I don't know how many prodigies are better than me. I am no match for them. I will lose once." Defeat again. In this process, too many tragic things happened, and the Taoist heart almost collapsed because of it, and I was unable to recover!" "But I am not willing to let it sink, and I am unable to recover! I want to take revenge and defeat all opponents and enemies. ! But I was in really bad shape at the time. I was defeated again and again, and my inner demons were all over the place. I couldn’t calm down to practice. In the end, I created the Art of Killing My Mind to cut out my inner demons and all the pain and sorrow. Accumulated in the Immortal Platform, I can keep my mind clear, and then use the "Immortal Heavenly Art" to practice and transform into a demon fetus!"

"The reason why it is said to be a demon fetus is because this demon fetus is filled with my hatred for my enemies and opponents, the pain and sorrow I feel for my relatives, friends and teachers who died tragically, as well as the nostalgia and sentimentality for the past, and all the pain. Hatred, nostalgia and sentimentality are what gave birth to this demonic fetus!"

As he spoke, Emperor Luan Gu sighed. In this sigh, there seemed to still be melancholy and sentimentality about the past.

When Lao He saw this, he couldn't help but worry: "Great Emperor?"

Emperor Luan Gu sighed with a smile: "I'm fine, Xiaobai, don't worry. After so many thousands of years, my opponents and enemies back then have already died in my hands. I avenged them! But now that I think about those years, I still can't help but feel a little bit sad." It’s just sentimental!”

Laohe Moran, even his companion, felt that the past was too miserable and could not bear to look back, let alone Emperor Luan Gu, the person involved?Even after so many thousands of years, I still can’t let go!
However, Shen Pingkang ignored Emperor Luan Gu's sadness. He thought to himself: "Cut out hatred, pain, grief and anger? Use this practice to cultivate the devil's womb? No wonder he killed me Ming Dao Jue. He really killed himself first. Only then can we understand the Tao and practice it!"

"This is also of some reference value. The memories of Changsheng Tianzun and I are intertwined. It can't go on like this. As time goes by, it is inevitable that I will not be assimilated. Maybe I should kill myself first and separate the memory of Changsheng Tianzun and My own memory is completely separated, and then Changsheng Tianzun is Changsheng Tianzun, and I am me. Changsheng Tianzun's memory can no longer affect my emotional cognition in the past. If possible, I can even put Changsheng Tianzun's Cut everything off and start over!"

"Hmm! Or maybe in order not to forget the past or who I am, I should be like the empress and deeply imprint the memories of the past twenty years in my soul into my own. Tao and Fruit, in this way, no matter how you practice, as long as Tao and Fruit are there, you will never forget the past and who I am!"

who I am?Where do I come from?Where will I go?

Perhaps, this philosophical proposition is the most difficult problem Shen Pingkang has to face!
