Ye Mo finally got his wish and began to accept Yan Chixia's teaching.

And the first lesson taught by Yan Chixia is how to understand this world, simply put, it is the worldview that belongs to this dream world.

"Heaven and earth are formed by vitality, and all things are multiplied by heaven and earth. Yan Chixia opened the chapter with a question, explaining what the basic composition of the world was in his eyes, or in the eyes of cultivators.

Ye Mo, who had checked a lot of information, understood as soon as he heard it, this sentence came from the pre-Qin "Crane Guanzi Tailu", which roughly means that heaven and earth are generated by vitality, and they are the ancestors of all things in the world.

Such a viewpoint, in the classification of modern philosophy, can be called ancient naïve materialism, which believes that the origin of the world is composed of one or several specific "things", and in the traditional concept of China, such "things" are called qi, which is a kind of gathering and dispersing formless, and can be transformed into the origin of all things.

This may seem to be the same as the modern scientific worldview of the whole world, which is made up of different elementary particles, but in fact the difference is huge.

Because in reality, those elementary particles are by no means as shown in this dream world, which can gather and dissolve intangible, forming all kinds of magical and controllable forces that exist in the nature of mutual restraint.

Ye Mo is not difficult to understand this worldview, after all, these traditional Chinese ideas are rooted in the hearts of every Chinese through the inheritance of culture, but he is very skeptical that such a statement can also be realized in reality.

The theory of vitality, in the real world, also stays in philosophy, and can only be called a philosophical point of view.

Putting aside this worry, Ye Mo did not disturb Yan Chixia's continued discussion.

"The essence of all things, this is life. The lower grains are born, the upper ones are the stars, the ghosts and gods are called between the heavens and the earth, and the saints are called the saints who are hidden in the chest, which is why ......they are famous."

"Man is also connected to heaven and earth, and corresponds to the sun and ...... moon"

"The life of a person is also the gathering of qi. Gathering is life, scattering is death......"

Excluding those mystical statements that were too philosophical, Ye Mo gradually had his own understanding of Yan Chixia's expression.

To put it simply, at least in this dream world, everything in the world is composed of various "qi", and the most magical existence among them is the "divine soul".

That's right, there is a soul in this world, and for human beings, although the vitality that makes up the body is important, the soul that is also composed of some magical qi is the root of everyone, and it is the origin that distinguishes you, me, and him.

According to Ye Mo's understanding, this so-called divine soul should be a collection of consciousness and spiritual power, fortunately, the two elements of consciousness and spiritual power in this point of view also exist in the real world, but they are more ethereal and difficult to observe.

Why do you emphasize the divine soul, because the countless miracles in this dream world are precisely due to the joint action of the divine soul and the vitality, which presents the current appearance.

For example, the first "magical creature" that Ye Mo came into contact with, the ghost, was formed by the divine soul that had not dissipated due to various reasons after the death of a person, and after gathering a certain amount of yin qi.

There are many reasons for the formation of ghosts, it may be because of the unwillingness to die unjustly, resulting in the soul not dissipating immediately for a while, and it happens to be buried in a place where the yin qi is abundant and there is no sunlight; of course, it may also happen to be buried next to some existence, or it is deliberately collected and controlled by life, and it cannot be reincarnated smoothly.

Yes, since there are souls, it is natural that there will be netherworld and reincarnation.

Since the whole body is composed of divine spirits and yin qi, ghosts can also show the texture and even weight of ordinary people, after all, they are also composed of vitality in essence, but because this yin qi composition is much shallower than the structure of the normal human body, which is steadily deposited by countless kinds of vitality, it has the characteristics of gathering and dispersing formless, and sometimes it can be expressed as weightless.

In fact, in order to reach a realm that can be touched by ordinary people, not all ghosts can achieve it, and this still requires a little cultivation to support, that is, it needs to accumulate more yin qi.

And the second kind of magical creatures, those dry corpses hiding in the shadows of Lanruo Temple, in fact, the vitality of the divine soul has been basically sucked away by the tree demon grandma, and the remaining little unwilling soul is formed after coming into contact with the little yin qi leaked by the tree demon grandma, but the power of the underlying demon ghosts formed by such fragmentary power is naturally almost negligible.

And the dissipation of the dried corpse without resistance in the sunlight is due to the natural growth and change of the most fundamental vitality between the two heavens and the earth.

Yin and Yang dominate the day and night of the world, respectively, and although the two energies can actually be transformed into each other, in a more straightforward expression, the two are more restrained by each other.

There are many cultivators in the human world who use yin and yang energy, but among the groups of demons and monsters, almost all of them regard yin energy as the foundation of their existence.

In this way, under the condition of the scorching sun and endless yang energy of the dry corpse during the day, that shallow yin energy was naturally consumed in an instant, even if it was a ghost thing with some cultivation such as Nie Xiaoqian and Xiaoqing, because it was all composed of yin energy, they also did not have much resistance to the daytime environment.

On the contrary, a demon like the Dryad Grandma, because she has the body of a tree, will not be harmed by the sunlight during the day, but in the daytime environment, her power, which is mainly composed of yin qi, also has the problem of declining power.

This is the reason why almost all of these monsters and ghosts near Lanruo Temple are only active at night.

The power of the Yuan Qi controlled by the Divine Soul is difficult to be restrained by pure physical attacks due to the uncertain nature of gathering and dispersing, and although Ye Mo's internal Qi is also a type of Yuan Qi, or it is also composed of Yuan Qi, the relationship with the Divine Soul is still one layer worse after all, so although it can dislodge the power of ghosts and dryads, it is difficult to fundamentally wipe them out.

So far, all the strange things that Ye Mo encountered after entering this movie world have basically been explained to a certain extent, and this is the worldview of this world, which is the so-called "rules" or "settings".

"Why does the Dryad Grandma need to be confused by a female ghost before she wants to absorb people's vitality?" Ye Mo finally asked.

"That's just because, when a person is fascinated and his mind is completely confused, his body and soul will be more vain and more easily plundered. Yan Chixia said helplessly: "Those seemingly charming ghosts are all life-seeking yakshas, but it is a pity that most of the men who come here can't see through them." ”
