Chapter 676: Shen Lang Goodbye Mother! Crossing the Truth (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
(At the end of the previous chapter, about 2,000 words have been revised and added to Jiang Li's death, if you are interested, you can go back and read it, thank you)
From Shen Lang's soul fusion, all the way to Jiang Li's death.
It may be a long time in the microcosm, and almost every soul particle is being destroyed and reborn.
After Jiang Li's soul was detonated and fused, he was devoured by Shen Lang little by little, until the fragment of the god in the depths of his soul was devoured by Shen Lang, and the whole process lasted for a long, long time in the microcosm.
But in the real world, it's really only a moment.
If you don't forget, there will be an echo!
Shen Lang's soul who experienced death and was reborn in Nirvana.
I am forming little by little.
Along with the ultimate dragon perception, it is also underway, irreversibly going on.
At this time, Shen Lang had another thought.
Was all this directed by the Chaos Prophet?
Including the ancient world, Jiang Xie's betrayal turned them all into fossils.
Including this world, Jiang Li destroyed nearly half of the planet?
Even including all that is happening now, not everything directed by the Chaos Prophet?
There is a fragment of God in the depths of Shen Lang's soul, and there is also a fragment in the depths of Jiang Li's soul, and only by combining the two fragments into one can the true ultimate dragon perception be completed? Who put this fragment of God into the depths of the souls of the two?
Is this the fate of two people who can only live one?
Is it fate that Shen Lang is alive and Jiang is dead?
Is Jiang Li's part of the divine fragment destined to be devoured by Shen Lang?
Or to put it more directly, the sacrifice of the Ancient Ming King, the Mother of Dragons, and the Empress Medusa was to help Shen Lang complete the high-level dragon perception.
Is it still not only Jiang Li's sacrificial sacrifice that can help Shen Lang complete the ultimate dragon perception?
This rises to a philosophical question.
Does justice really triumph over evil, and can emotion really triumph over reason?
Of course, maybe all of this doesn't matter now: the most important thing now is Shen Lang's choice.
This upcoming Ultimate Dragon Perception.
If you want to ask Shen Lang, what is the ultimate dragon perception, what is the feeling in front of you?
It was truly a chaotic unknown.
He only knew that what he wanted to perceive was the laws of time and space.
And the first instinctive impulse that sprung up in him was to go back to thirty-five years ago, to save his mother, Empress Bai Yujing, to save Gangichi, or to save this withered planet?
And once the urge arises, he has to make a choice.
Because, in itself, this is also an important part of perceiving time and space, which is also part of the ultimate dragon perception.
And back thirty-five years ago, this path was the best and the most tempting.
Even, it seems to be the most direct way to complete the ultimate dragon perception, and it is also the embodiment of the ultimate dragon perception.
But once it is wrong, it will be a catastrophe for the whole world, a disaster ten thousand times more terrible than what Jiang Li did.
In Da Liu's "Three-Body Problem", there is a virgin heroine, who is extremely kind, full of emotion, and likes to be emotional in everything, but in the end it destroyed the entire earth, and then destroyed the entire universe.
If it is replaced by the previous Shen Lang!
He will do whatever he wants, because he represents emotion, and Jiang Li represents cold reason.
But...... Now that Jiang Li is dead, the entire responsibility is on Shen Lang, he not only has to represent emotion, but also reason.
Shen Lang did not choose immediately, but entered his deeper soul world!
"Boom......" A figure appeared in front of Shen Lang.
It's the bald head Okaichi, the last heir of the Great Tribulation Temple, who is so handsome that he is a mess, the lord of the Hanging Temple who sacrifices his soul at the last moment, even if it is meaningless.
"See His Majesty Shen Lang. Okaichi bowed down to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang said: "It's been a long time, Gangyi!"
Gang Yiyi: "Your Majesty Shen Lang, I know what you are thinking, you are full of guilt for our sacrifice. And you think that our sacrifice was only exchanged for your high-level dragon perception, so you have always wanted to give us back our lives?"
Shen Lang said: "Yes." β
Gangyi: "Your Majesty Shen Lang, I only want to say one word. Some people are dead, and he is still alive. There is a man who is alive, and he is dead. For those of us, it doesn't matter if you die, it's about dying worthwhile. Of course...... I don't know if I'm worthy, because it seems that your high-level dragon perception doesn't seem to have any effect on the souls of more than 10,000 of us. But at least at the moment of the sacrifice, we are filled with pride and glory. β
"Your Majesty Shen Lang, goodbye then. Before I say goodbye, I send you a poem, which is also a poem written by you. β
"Those who forsake me, forsake me, the day of yesterday shall not remain!"
Then, Gangyi's figure dissipated into the depths of Shen Lang's soul.
"Boom ......"
There was another flash of light, and another beautiful figure appeared in the depths of Shen Lang's soul.
The mother of Shen Lang, the empress of Bai Yujing.
"My child, you don't want to save me all the time, you seem to be mean and unkind, but in fact you are more affectionate than anyone else, you are the pride of my life. β
"Of course, I know that you are not exactly my son, but at least half of it is mine. β
"That's right, my life has been wiped out, and it was wiped out by a finger from your father, Jiang Li. But you're a continuation of my life, aren't you? You've inherited not only my life, but also my aspirations. Does it matter if I'm alive or not?"
"Everything is cause and effect, a few decades ago, when the Great Qian Empire was crusading against the Great Yan Empire, I killed Jiang Li with my own hands. From that moment on, I thought that one day, I would be able to be killed by his own hands and end this cause and effect. So Jiang Li killed me with his own hands, which is very fair. β
"Everything is cause and effect, Jiang Li's mouth is to get rid of low emotions, so he killed me lightly, and a finger made me go up in smoke, even though I used to be his wife. But did he really not leave a mark in the depths of his soul when he killed me? didn't leave a scar? Not really...... Can he really get rid of low emotions? Not really!"
"It's all perfect, and it's even more perfect to leave regrets. β
"I love you, my child. β
Then, the figure of Empress Bai Yujing also dissipated from the depths of Shen Lang's soul.
"Boom ......"
Another flash of white light.
A handsome and incomparable man appeared in the depths of Shen Lang's soul.
This person is Jiang Li.
Of course, the souls of these people above are not real, they are just the reflections they once left in Shen Lang's soul.
Jiang Li and Shen Lang were silent.
"Shen Lang, I stick to my path. Therefore, at the time of the high-level dragon perception, I abandoned my body, abandoned the emotional bond, and I used the coldest reason to complete my mission. I think that's the direction of human evolution. β
"I stuck to my word until I was finally gone, and I didn't regret it or change it. β
"You have a fragment of God, and I have a fragment of God. You first soul fusion, and then you detonated my soul fusion, and the collision of our two souls was like the collision of two suns. β
"Of the two of us, only one of us can survive, this is fate. β
"I'm really unwilling, why am I the one who failed?
"Is it just because you were reborn in Nirvana that I became the Sacrificer?
"Even, is the soul fragment in the depths of my soul half a level lower than yours, and is it destined to be devoured by you? Is all this a conspiracy of the Chaos Prophet, is he directing everything?"
"Why is it that I am the one who sacrificed? I am the one who sacrificed? Is the Chaos Prophet just a stepping stone for you to make me go through so much?"
Jiang Li's words made Shen Lang also fall into deep thought.
Why would Jiang Li lose and die?
Is it just because Shen Lang is more courageous? first completed soul fusion, first completed Nirvana rebirth?
And Jiang Li's soul was induced by Shen Lang to burst into fusion, and then began to be reborn in Nirvana, but it was one step too late, so it was about to be devoured?
Jiang Li said: "So before I died, I was full of infinite unwillingness, infinite pain. But the moment I died, I understood a lot. β
"Shen Lang, fate is fair to us. The soul fragments in the depths of the souls of the two of us are of the same level, and there is no distinction between high and low. β
"What is destiny is the choice we make at the critical moment. β
"Every life is like full of forks in the road, and every choice leads to a change in fate. β
"After I carried out the high-level dragon perception, because of infinite guilt and pain, I chose to completely cut my own body and reshape a so-called perfect body. I felt like I had become perfect, and I felt like I had abandoned the lower emotions. I feel like I'm on the right path to salvation. β
"But...... This in itself is a kind of evasion! a kind of cowardice!"
"Shen Lang, you're right. Don't dare how powerful I behaved, how ruthless I was, and even mastered half the world's energy. But what I want to do, it's always cowardly. The sun is about to fight back before it dies, and the whole world is about to be destroyed, and I want to build a ship that has never been seen before and escape with hundreds of thousands of souls. β
"No matter how much I package my plans, what kind of survival instincts, what is the ultimate evolutionary way. But at the end of the day, it's an escape. Just like when I was a high-level dragon, I chose to abandon my body in order to escape the pain and guilt. β
"And you are different from Shen Lang, after the high-level dragon perception, you choose to return to the shell. In the face of the imminent great nirvana, although you don't know what to do, you always have a thought, never abandon this planet, never abandon this civilization, naΓ―ve or stupid, but at least you are braver than me. β
"Our final battle is ultimately a battle of souls. β
"Your soul fuses and then nirvana is reborn. My soul was also detonated and fused, and Nirvana was reborn. β
"But you win, you really complete Nirvana. And I lost, and was reduced to a sacrifice. This was not a conspiracy of the Chaos Prophet, but it was predestined from the start. Because I have abandoned my body, my soul is already incomplete. β
"Shen Lang, I have abandoned my body, and then I want to abandon this planet and our home. Such a soul is inherently crippled, so how can we achieve nirvana?"
"Even I don't dare to admit that I am Jiang Xie, but only admit that I am Jiang Li, how can such an incomplete soul be nirvana?
Jiang Li's words were deafening.
Alone, no matter how strong you become. But if you abandon your hometown and motherland in your heart, then this soul is destined to be incomplete, how can you achieve nirvana?
Even if you explain it a thousand times, ten thousand times, it is useless to arm yourself with incomparably lofty theories, such as the motherland where there is freedom.
"Shen Lang, you destroyed the Ancient Prison and buried Jiang Xie's body at sea for the last time. Jiang Li said slowly: "You are not willing to take advantage of my weakness to attack me, this is a kind of strength in itself." But that shell wasn't just my weakness, it was the missing part of me. β
"So, countless years ago, my failure was doomed. β
"This time my ultimate nirvana failed, and it was also doomed. I am destined to become the power of sacrifice and let you complete the consciousness of the high-level dragon. β
"Because, my soul is broken. A very important part of that, which remains in my shell, is my emotions. β
After saying these words, tears slipped from the corners of Jiang Li's eyes.
Of course, he is still not the real Jiang Li. Jiang Li is already dead, and this is just a projection in Shen Lang's mind, which can be regarded as an echo after death.
"Shen Lang, my son. You said earlier that a child first worships his father, then understands his father, and finally defeats his father. Now you're done, and you're solid every step of the way!"
"Now you have the most critical step to make, and you have to make the most critical choice. β
"Shen Lang, you are in the process of the ultimate dragon perception. I, as a loser, can't guide you in anything. But as a father, I would like to have a few words to say to my son. β
"The first sentence is that pain and regret are part of life. Don't do anything to isolate me in order to redeem my pain and regret, I am the worst end. β
In the second sentence, what happened in the past is destined to become a thing of the past and irreversible. If you want to reverse, you mean denying the past. To deny the past is to deny the self. And once you deny yourself, it means total destruction. β
"There's a third sentence, I don't know if it's right to say. β
Jiang Li sighed softly.
"Shen Lang, my son, do you think the Chaos Prophet has completed the Ultimate Dragon Perception?" Jiang Li asked.
Shen Lang did not answer.
Jiang Li said: "He should, maybe life and death are done." But...... Why is you needed to save the world, not himself?"
This sentence is even more deafening, and even reveals almost all the truth. Of course, it may not be revealed, because it looks even more confusing.
If the Chaos Prophet completes the Ultimate Dragon Perception, what did he rely on to do so?
The so-called dragon perception is, in the final analysis, energy exchange, to put it more bluntly, that is, devouring.
What energy can sustain the Chaos Prophet in completing the Ultimate Dragon Perception?
And most importantly, if he completes the ultimate dragon perception, then he should also save the world?
Isn't it......
The Chaos Prophet also made a huge mistake when it came to completing the Ultimate Dragon's Perception.
He also wanted to redeem his pain and regret?
That's why it's all the things that we're in now?
Who was the Chaos Prophet? was he from the Ancient Times, from the Ancient Times, or from the Ancient Times, or was he from where? When exactly did he come to the Ultimate Dragon Sense?
"Well, my son, farewell. Jiang Li said: "I lost, I wish you a bright future here and never regret it." β
Then, Jiang Li's figure completely disappeared from Shen Lang's field of vision.
....................................
All the soul reflections have dissipated!
Shen Lang returned to the strange and chaotic space, a completely lonely world.
He was going to continue his ultimate dragon sense.
Go back in time, go back to thirty-five years ago, save Okanichi, save her mother, Empress Bai Yujing, save this shattered world?
The thought is very tempting.
However, the past is completely gone.
To deny the past is to betray and to subvert cause and effect.
The road looks beautiful, but it's ...... Can't go!
Well, since you can't go back in time.
What is the content of the ultimate dragon perception, and what is the time and space of the perception?
Soon!
Shen Lang understood that he was the most suitable person for the ultimate dragon perception.
He is the best person to comprehend time and space.
Because...... He is a traverser himself.
His crossing is itself the product of the ultimate dragon's perception.
Everything was chaotic and unknown before, and the so-called ultimate dragon perception, Shen Lang didn't know how to proceed, the only thing he could think of was to go back to the past.
But now, Shen Lang's heart is gradually becoming clearer, and the goal of the ultimate dragon perception is gradually becoming clear.
"Thank you, Your Majesty Jiang Li, thank you for your sacrifice, thank you for your admonition before you die. β
"Thank you mother, thank you Okanichi. β
"I know what to do. β
Faced with this chaotic and unknown strange space, Shen Lang knew what to do.
Don't go down the path that seems the most tempting and the easiest, and don't try to go back in time and save everything.
It's about going bravely into the future and into the unknown.
The so-called ultimate dragon perception has become an ultimate philosophical question.
Where am I from?
Where am I?
Where am I going?
Shen Lang's journey from the earth to this world is itself a journey through time and space, which is part of the ultimate dragon's perception.
Then now Shen Lang has to thoroughly comprehend these three questions.
He had to understand thoroughly how he got here from Earth.
How does space go? How does time go? How does this crossing work?
After completing the perception of this first philosophical question, his ultimate dragon perception is completed.
Step 2: Where am I?
This is also important.
Because now Shen Lang's soul perception is in a very strange and mysterious space.
It was as if it was completely out of this world, with no time and no concept of space.
Could this be the legendary four-dimensional space? Or is it a higher level? After understanding how to travel from the earth to this world, Shen Lang has to thoroughly comprehend where this place is and what the concept is?
Step 3, where am I going?
It is a completely separate space, not of this world, nor of this dimension.
And if Shen Lang wants to return to the real world, he must find a way to leave this special and strange space.
And once he managed to leave.
It means that he has mastered the secrets of time and space, and it represents the end of the ultimate dragon's perception.
These three steps of comprehension must be completed, otherwise Shen Lang's soul will be trapped here forever and forever, and he will never be allowed to go out.
And after completing the ultimate dragon perception, then there may be real hope for the salvation of this world.
....................................
Time is like water, time is like a shuttle, and the days when you can't pretend to be forced still pass quickly day by day.
Half a month later!
Jiang Li's new dragon, Shen Lang's dragon, flew to the moon again.
Dead silence on the far side of the moon.
Inside a huge whirlpool.
Jiang Li's figure had disappeared without a trace.
Shen Lang lay quietly in the deepest part of the whirlpool.
Jiang Li's new dragon let out a wail.
Then, it knelt down towards Shen Lang.
Jiang Li said that after half a month, no matter who survives, he will be the only owner of the two dragons.
Shen Yilong said: "You go, you take the master home." β
This Jiang Li's new dragon is still its son.
Xinlong gently picked up Shen Lang's body and put it on his back.
The two dragons, with Shen Lang, left the moon and returned to the world.
