According to his own estimates, Yang Yi reduced his own output - and then, between the collision with Hong Xuanji, the result was the same as the previous one.

What does this mean? Naturally, Hong Xuanji's output has also weakened......

Is it because Hong Xuanji is affected by his current state, which makes him unable to do his best?

Of course not, because his current state can be said to have been brushed on him after Yang Yi's careful calculations - in addition to the aspect that Yang Yi wanted to influence, which "will definitely not affect the state of the shot", it was also affected by the spirit and Dao heart. However, it is well known that sometimes a psychopath can exert more lethality than a normal person.

"This is the darkness under the lamp......" Yang Yi, who didn't know what he should say, could only sigh to himself, and by the way, he eliminated the attack that was about to fall on Hong Xuanji's body - Yang Yi specially cut off the spirit lock component in the attack, so the two shots were actually allowed to dodge.

But Hong Xuanji was in a normal state before, and after finding that he was crushed, he naturally tried to dodge, and then he dodged. At this moment, Hong Xuanji has fallen into a state of mental disorder-

In Yang Yi's view, Hong Xuanji can be regarded as a guinea pig who helped his experiment succeed - in some sense, he can be regarded as a meritorious hero. As for the previous incident, it has been solved from the root cause anyway, so you don't have to worry about it, right? If you're in a good mood, let him go.

"But the experiment still has to be done, and the final verification ......" After that, there is no longer any intention to care about Hong Yi and Hong Xuanji's father and son, Yang Yi said softly in his heart.

And what is he going to verify? Of course, it is necessary to verify whether the things that have been discovered before are correct - even if they are actually certain, but there must always be a spirit of experimentation. Rigorous, rigorous......

'Faith, or obsession, or just mention the word [persistence]...... the position of the yang god simulated from his body is still there, and Yang Yi finally added something to it that he had never thought of before, or that he had never cared about.

-- It was a bit of attachment that he simulated.

Then, from the perspective of the Yang God, in the "eyes" that had reached the end and could not see a trace of the brilliance of the road ahead, suddenly a light brightened! The breath of the yang god seems to be the rising sun and the sun is in the sky, and the difference between them is only whether they have a firm foothold in this realm.

However, after all, the sun has a [reincarnation] of rising in the east and setting in the west! It's day and night! Even if there is a polar day at the poles of the planet, there is a polar night opposite to it...... Besides, no one must be unaware that the sun itself is not eternal, although the day it goes out is not at all possible for mortals to see......

But at this moment, the [Yang God] that Yang Yi himself simulated suddenly separated from the trace of "self" that he had separated and integrated into! It seems to be caused by his little [attachment] - and then, a bit of [attachment] suddenly merges with the separated [Yang God], and once again loads that trace of "self" into it.

Loading - The difference from the previous one is that this time it's just loading! The previous [Yang God] and that bit of "self" were fused together, but this time it was just loading, and the two were still distinct, like a ship and the people on board......

Yes, the [Yang God] seems to have merged with the [Attachment] and turned into a ship! Hold yourself on it, and in the perspective, it was originally just a "dead end" that changed from a promising future and turned into a radiant "dead end", in which the dazzling brilliance finally became softer, but not dissipated, but most of it condensed together and settled down, turning into a sea below! And the "boat" that carries the "self" and is transformed by the [Yang God] and a little [Attachment] has become a boat to cross the sea!

The direction of progress can be seen clearly, and the end is a "other shore......

"This is the realm of the other side." Explained in an infinitely flat tone, with an infinitely calm attitude, facing this fact that any monk in this world yearns for incomparably - he has seen a higher realm than the "supreme" Yang God realm in this world, and what's more, as long as he is willing, as long as he takes another step now, in the original work of "Yang God", the other side of the realm that the protagonist has not been able to truly achieve in the finale will also be easily reached by him!

But it didn't mean anything to him.

He studied the cultivation system in this world, after all, just to pursue his own answers. And now, he has got the answer he wants - it is all just a process, a process that seems like a joke to him from a high vantage point. It's as if it is absolutely impossible for a monk in this world to be like him, relying on a joking, random and imaginary point of [attachment] that is not real at all as the foundation for cultivation progress, or even achieve the realm on the other side!

"Faith, obsession......" Yang Yi still seemed calm, but after some exploration, he finally found the answer to a question, and joy was also inevitable - or a sense of accomplishment. Therefore, he vented his emotions in a way that he expounded his results in a way that talked to himself.

"Or to put it mildly, the so-called 'paranoia' is actually a similar existence, and the essence is the so-called [attachment]...... In this world, all the monks who have achieved something have their own ambitions...... That is the goal that he has to strive for all his life, which is naturally his belief, and in the final analysis, it is also the ...... of "persistence."

In fact, the importance of the so-called attachment in the cultivation process is self-evident...... Basically, it can be said that in every cultivation system, the shadow of this thing can be seen. It's just that the cultivation system of this world is more biased towards [idealism] than most systems, which leads to its direct connection with combat effectiveness...... I temporarily broke Hong Xuanji's Dao heart, and the [attachment] in his heart, or the belief, was also questioned by himself, and it was no longer stable, and even collapsed. ”

In this case, his will will also lose an increase and bonus, and he is no longer so strong, and his strength will naturally be suddenly weakened...... In other words, the answer to the question of why Confucius's will was so tenacious, and this is where I was looking for the answer......"

"[Persistence]!" Speaking of this, Yang Yi suddenly had a helpless smile on his face, which seemed to have a little bitterness, but it seemed to contain a slow and free and easy.

"No wonder...... It is no wonder that in the competition of wills under the same conditions, I feel that I will not be the opponent of Confucius, so I must crush the power of a million huge forces to achieve things...... What attachments do I have? I don't have it......"

"It is also the will under the blessing of the three-peak consummation level of state of mind, I have no obsession, but others have the blessing of an additional obsession...... This is similar to the size of the poker draw, both of them draw five cards of the same size, but in the end they are told that they can draw the sixth card but they can't, and the gap naturally exists. ”

With that said, everything is clear.

What is wrong with Yang Yi?

The difference is that he has no faith, he is not paranoid, he has never had a lofty goal or ambition - he has no attachment.

Speaking of which, if you think about it, isn't it a little sad for someone like him? People live without a goal......

But is that really the case? Looking at Yang Yi's face, the proportion of helplessness and bitterness is decreasing, but the kind of free and easy seems to be more and more pure, and a kind of detached aura begins to manifest on his body......

At least, Yang Yi himself should not feel so.

"yes...... I don't have an obsession, but what's the use of me being obsessed? Or conversely, what's the use of obsession with me? He was still talking to himself, but this time Yang Yi was not venting his emotions, but as if he was explaining his ...... Belief?

Just said that he didn't have faith, why did he have it again at this time? Well, maybe it's not faith, or maybe it's not all faith, but it should be called "Tao", right?

He didn't care about any of that.

The position of the Yang God that evolved had been taken away by Yang Yi, but at this time, it was reloaded by him, and this time he did not end up with "taking a boat on the sea", but took another step forward.

The other side.

What is different from before is that while achieving the realm on the other side, that trace of "self" is infinitely strengthened by a mysterious power in the dark, constituting the two major elements of the "boat crossing the sea", but the [attachment] in it begins to gradually disappear - strictly speaking, it is not disappearing, but transforming into another form.

Yang Yi's voice with the meaning of "as expected" continued to sound.

"Sure enough, it was like this...... Even under this cultivation system where the importance of the mind has been magnified a lot, the so-called [attachment] is only a transition...... The need in the early stage is even more important when passing a certain level, and the slightest flaw is a big trouble. ”

"But it's like the so-called 'final glory', in the finale of the original work of "Yang God", Hong Yi wants to achieve the other side of the same way until his grand wish is completely completed, and before that, he can only take a boat to move forward and float on the sea. The process of achieving the other side is the process of eliminating one's own attachments! ”

"Obsession is helping, this is true, helping people break through. But in the same way, it is also an obstacle, and at the last moment, it hinders people from achieving enlightenment! ”

"So, since I don't need this help, and I can get to the point where I need to get rid of this so-called 'help', what is the use?"

The last sentence, Yang Yi said with a smile, inexplicably posing a posture of looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, but it surprisingly looked very forced rather than like a second force.

"So be it, more than ten years is not waste...... Although this answer itself is of little use to me, it has led me to many other things, eh...... It was an unexpected surprise. As the saying goes, I am happy to get by, and I have fun in time, which may not be a good attitude towards life, but it is just a little ugly. ”

In the blink of an eye, Yang Yi had disappeared without a trace - he had really disappeared from this world.

――――Dividing Line――――

Many people, including many of Yang Yi's close friends, have expressed their incomprehension of Yang Yi's attitude towards life and cultivation.

It's just that the friendship between them and Yang Yi has either not arrived, or the friendship has arrived - those who have not yet arrived, what Yang Yi wants, it is not their turn to speak, that is called shallow and deep, taboo. And when the friendship arrived, they were very aware of the many special features of Yang Yi - that itself was beyond their understanding and even imagination. In this case, they simply don't know which angle to open their mouths.

Since it is to persuade people, you have to come up with a reason. And they didn't, so in the end they had to accommodate.

But there are always secret complaints, and the most complained about is undoubtedly Yang Yi's progress speed - if it is just a step-by-step path to receive the inheritance, no matter how fast the progress is, they can understand it. But Yang Yi's progress in the way of self is also not slow, and he has even stepped through the three peaks one step earlier than the way of inheritance.

Could it be that the true meaning of cultivation lies not in single-mindedness and unswervingness, but in wandering around without heart or lungs?

In fact, Yang Yi himself has always been quite curious about these questions, but he has never been too lazy to dwell on them - because he doesn't see the need to dwell on them for the time being, or if he is entangled, he can't find the answer. The so-called obsession and the so-called grand wish always require a person to have some ideas from the bottom of his heart, and then sincerely set them for himself.

But he has cultivated so far, he lacks nothing, and he doesn't worry about anything-obsessed with a fart? If you force yourself to find a goal, that's not called ambition! What is the difference with the so-called "worrying about new words"?

After thinking about this, combined with today's many insights, Yang Yi can be regarded as truly understanding - this is probably also accepting some of the benefits that come with that inheritance, right? From the very beginning, I don't have to go through the tempering of the attachment from nothing to something and then from something to nothing, just like everyone else.

For myself, the so-called "getting by" is not a good attitude towards life......

Or, you can even say that you actually have an obsession - if the so-called "living a day counts as a day" and "having fun in time" also counts.

Well, to be honest, although he comprehended this, Yang Yi himself couldn't understand it for the time being.

In other words, some of the things in it are really ugly to say, and he himself doesn't quite agree with them.

But he also knew that those things would be understood sooner or later.

When the time comes, many of these benefits will naturally be realized by him.

In the dark, someone seems to sigh -

In the void, there are only two kinds of obsessions left, one is a madman, and the other is on the road to becoming a madman......

――――Dividing Line――――

Hong Yi, who was ignored, seemed to have a halo of the protagonist, although the Dao Heart was also broken, but it was not thrown into the well like Hong Xuanji, and naturally the Dao Heart was stabilized again - Yang Yi was not heavy after all.

Then, many of the words between Yang Yi's self-talk were also listened to by him, especially some of them aimed at the cultivation evaluation of the Yang God and the other side realm, although he didn't understand it for the time being, he could write it down, and the value was immeasurable.

Coupled with the fact that he has broadened countless horizons, and Hong Xuanji, who is still crazy and allowed him to slaughter, his fate seems to have taken a subtle fork in the road.

I just don't know if this fork in the road leads to the known or unknown...... (To be continued.) )
