Chapter six hundred and seventy third step forward(1/2)
The changes brought about by the times are everywhere in this world. The seemingly magical technology and magic (without psychic powers) have become unreliable rules that limit conditions (within this world).
The first rule of psionics is that psychic consciousness can distort reality. The only rule in this world is that there are no rules. As long as the psychic power is strong enough and a high-dimensional person with "authority" to use it, he can trample on the powerless at will.
The so-called reality and rules.
But this does not mean that some things are completely gone. On the contrary, since the laws of psionics have been determined, the importance of "consciousness", and the lessons of culture, philosophy, history, and mythology, probably even those warriors cannot escape.
,
And these things influence this era on a deeper level.
The three major identities of cultural identity, national identity, and racial identity are the root causes of the entire human civilization, which is obviously fragmented and fragmented everywhere, but has never really broken into one piece.
"As long as you think you're human, you are."
What Zheng Li said to Rabbit at the beginning contained so much historical inheritance and so many painful lessons from failure. I am afraid that the people who spoke and listened did not quite understand.
The history that is cruel and boring and full of sacrifices and blood has allowed mankind to form the most basic "consensus", that is, "foreigners cannot be trusted", and the derivative "when there is no pressure from foreigners, the same race cannot be trusted either" cough
Well, that's a bit too far off topic. The main point is that even in the cruel competition among the gods, individuals who are separated from the protection of the group have no future.
You can sell your family to seek glory, but others can also sell you.
When the year is good, they are second-class people. When the year is really bad, the lackeys have to be slaughtered or sold first.
After all the "running dogs" and "traitors" have been repeatedly whipped by history, the painful lessons learned time and time again will make many people think more about it when making important decisions.
Liberal arts, on the contrary, have become more important and brilliant in this era. This is probably a result that no one expected in the previous era. The most obvious one is probably the cultural capital like Beishicheng.
And some things are indeed passed down, such as the differences between Eastern and Western philosophy.
"Yin and Yang have always been one of the core and sources of Eastern philosophy. From a Western perspective, Yin is Yin and Yang is Yang. It is quite creative to create a picture where the end of the holy light is darkness, but it is still '
One' is 'one'. But according to the Eastern concept, yin and yang are one, and where there is yin there is yang. The whole is actually indivisible."
Time and space, yin and yang, sun and moon are all opposing concepts that have one and the other. The high intention of "Mengling's Double Sword" is also a reflection of Zheng Li's expectations and ambitions.
In fact, they have always fed back to Zheng Li that the rewards are worthy of the investment. However, Zheng Li himself has not fully developed it.
"let's start."
Meng Ling's two swords were placed together, and Meng Ling's "sister and brother" held their hands together, feeling a little nervous between them.
Different from every previous breakthrough, this time, everyone knew that it would be a transformation, not only for the spirit blade, but also for the sword master and the spirit clan.
In the past, it was a mortal journey, one step at a time. This time, I just took a plane directly and tried to hit the real higher dimensions.
Originally, the success rate of this thing was quite low, and even if it succeeded, it was still unknown to what extent it would reach and whether it could satisfy the sword master's demand for mythical components.
"Will I have an independent body this time?"
Xiaoling was a little hesitant. He or she had already gotten used to her sister's mirror body. Although there was nothing inconvenient about it, it was still a bit uncomfortable for independent individuals because they couldn't stay away from each other and share it in all directions.
Even though the relationship between sisters is excellent, as she grows older, she also has her own needs for privacy.
Zheng Li paused for a moment, then shook his head without hesitation.
"It's impossible. You are actually two parts of a spiritual blade. In a sense, you are two sides of one person, two sides of yin and yang. This is my personal understanding, and this is yours.
The reason for the formation. Uh, don’t look at me like this, I’m not saying you are your sister’s accessory, you are you, your sister is you, you are spiritual beings as intelligent creatures, not just spiritual blades.”
Zheng Li patiently explained to Xiaoling.
He knew that his little girl was not as mature as she looked. After all, she was only over three years old, and she had always been under the protection of her sister.
And this was the reason why he did not fully develop Mengling's double swords as his main weapon.
The spirit blade is never a simple weapon. The spirit race is the soul born in the spirit blade, just like the soul born in the mortal body.
As for the soul, it needs time to mature in a short period of time. If you turn it into a killing weapon, you will only get a pair of bloodthirsty magic blades.
It's not that there's anything wrong with the Demon Blade, it's just that Zheng Li placed the highest expectations on the double blades. In a sense, he prefers a pair of ceremonial swords. It's not that they don't stain blood, but that they have a tendency to bring out their value better.
Even without using his power, Zheng Li knew that Xiaoling's extra body was hopeless.
Yin and Yang are originally one body, and the sun and moon reflect each other. How could there be a "shadow body"? In fact, it is lucky enough.
The spiritual blades with high affinity will respond to the sword master's desire, just like the invisible chains after the evolution of Meng Ling's double swords, but the most fundamental thing is difficult and impossible to twist.
Zheng Li believed that "yin and yang" and "time and space" are integrated, so the pair of swords are actually a spiritual blade. He also believed that "yin" and "yang" are parts of yin and yang, but were singled out to refer to concepts.
It is the reflection of the entire concept of yin and yang in the real world, so it is a double sword and nothing else.
In fact, whether it is time and space, yin and yang, or the sun and the moon, what Zheng Li really depicts is the world.
It is an Eastern philosophical worldview constructed with the "balance of yin and yang" as the core, and it is the myriad worlds in his eyes. In a sense, he really plays with the principle of "adaptation of consciousness to the world" of psionic science.
A thoroughly smart man.
Unless Zheng Li is crazy enough to replace the core concept of essence, Yin and Yang must be one, and Xiaoling is destined to be with her sister forever. Zheng Li also did not expect that a sword would produce two souls. This was everyone's plan from the beginning.
Out of range.
Xiaoling complained a few words and took the opportunity to ask for next month's pocket money, but said nothing more.
In fact, she had already known that she was just a girl who had entered puberty, and it was really an abnormal reason for wanting to sleep in a separate room with her sister.
It's not that Zheng Li couldn't bear to part with two rooms, but once one of the sisters loses consciousness, the other will naturally shrink back into the body. Simply put, they will definitely stay together when they fall asleep.
Sometimes, Zheng Li really thinks about what to do if the two of them get married in the future. Maybe the other party will be happier, but no, they will definitely not get married!
Zheng Li shook his head and got rid of unnecessary distracting thoughts.
Mengling's double swords are his core weapons. They are the "axis" and "reference coordinates" for him to describe the world step by step and build his own conscious world. This step is too important to him, and he is also worried about gains and losses.
But Xiaoling's interruption also made him calm down and understand more clearly what he wanted.
"let's start."
Some things may sound complicated, and there are many things to consider, but how long does it take to eat something?
Xiaoling, after swallowing the "mirror cake" that was delivered to her in two or three mouthfuls, everything started and then ended.
In just a moment, the change happened.
The twin sisters returned to the blade body, and the red light swallowed up the two swords. The intense light made Zheng Li suspect that everything was out of balance, but the next moment, calm was restored.
It was a slender red thin sword, with the sun's gem as the hilt. There were photoelectrics scattered on the blade. The decoration was minimal, but the entire blade was like a blade of light.
The overall decorative style is like the hands of a clock. There are gaps between the blades. The blade is like an empty work of art. The thin blade is more like a decoration than a weapon.
But when the surroundings of this "artwork" are exuding the luster of the sun, and the overflowing solar blade fire burns the atmosphere, no one will really regard it as a decoration.
The red sword on the table doesn't look like a mortal thing.
"Wait a minute, why is there only one handful!"
At this moment, Zheng Li was completely frightened. Could it be that the two sides still haven't reached a balance? The sun's godhead overwhelmed the mirror god fragments, and Xiao Meng swallowed Xiao Ling?
No, even if the instinct is out of control, Xiaomeng will suppress his eating instinct.
[Stupid, I am here, two decimeters to the left of my sister.]
The next moment, Zheng Li rushed up and touched Xiaoling's blade, but it was still invisible to the naked eye.
And when he really concentrated on observing, changes occurred again, Xiaoling's blade emerged, and Xiaomeng's blade became invisible.
It was invisible rather than disappearing. Zheng Li could feel the weight of the sword in his hand, but he couldn't observe it even with his magic eyes!
"Does a conceptual denial exist? It is indeed an ability worthy of his wealth, but why do I only think it is a good weapon for Yin people?"
When he thought about the fact that there were two swords, but one of them was destined to be invisible, countless vicious thoughts flowed through Zheng Li's head.
But now, what is more important is Xiaoling herself.
Compared with her sister's upright "brightness", Xiaoling's blade has another style.
Crystal sword, or the whole glass sword.
The translucent blade body is one-piece. Except for the decorative style of "clock hands", there is no other unnecessary decoration, and there is no color overall.
But Zheng Li also noticed that her color is changeable. When there is a red tablecloth underneath, she is a light red ruby sword. When she is stuck on the soil, it is a majestic topaz.
The sword, and if it is simply held in Zheng Li's hand, it is indeed a translucent and colorless crystal sword.
The overall appearance, compared with the previous sinister dagger, appears more pure and harmless. However, the poison of time that Zheng Li senses from it is definitely increasing.
One long and one short, a thin sword and a dagger, the "minute hand" and the "hour hand" are interdependent. This is time and space, yin and yang, the sun and the moon. At the same time, it is also
"Life and Death."
Inexplicably, Zheng Li had a bunch of forbidden knowledge and concepts in his head, some of which came from the "Sun God" and some from the "Mirror Maze".
Just like that time in the land of men and horses, Mengling turned the "excess" she couldn't digest into a "burden" for the sword master.
And part of it also has the new power of Meng Ling's double swords, and there are more than one.
"Is this the power of the mythical spiritual blade?"
Yes, Zheng Li has confirmed that this is not a quasi-mythical spiritual blade.
All the food he ate along the way was god-level materials. At this moment, Meng Ling's double swords had stepped on the edge of truly high dimensions.
Zheng Li silently put away the blade and integrated it into his body. The surging spiritual energy jumped out. At this moment, Zheng Li felt that he had made another big step forward.
To be continued...
