Chapter 20: Knowing the Self
ββ¦β¦ What the? β
An incomprehensible confusion rose in Lin Yumo's heart, and he seemed to suddenly fall into a long-term contemplation...... Others...... And ...... themselves? A flash of spiritual light flashed in Lin Yumo's heart, and after thinking about it for an unknown amount of time, Lin Yumo seemed to have finally gotten the answer that belonged to him, so Lin Yumo replied in a heavy and steady tone:
"Unheard of!"
The infinite faces in the dark void invariably stopped talking.
"Never seen before!"
These 360 degrees represent the 'whole' space, above and below, left and right, in front and behind, it seems that all the faces are turned to face Lin Yumo's direction at this moment.
"Unsightly!"
In an instant, countless faces opened countless pairs of eyes, and those pitch-black pupils swung irregularly in searching, and finally locked on Lin Yumo who was in the center.
"You can't speak!"
The mouths of those faces opened wide unconsciously, as if they were amazed, as if laughing, as if they were shouting with anger, as if they were screaming in horror, but even if they opened their mouths, they could not make any sound!
"No one else!"
The dark starry sky seemed to suddenly appear with many subtle cracks, and these cracks continued on those faces, causing those pale masks to be torn and crushed by the cracks, and finally the entire empty void finally turned into a pale "nothing" in a crisp cracking sound after holding on for a moment.
"Look at me!"
As Lin Yumo uttered this god-like declaration, the pale 'nothing' in front of him also revealed its true face!
Incomparably huge, incomparably majestic, it seems that the entire universe is only a part of it, Lin Yumo is facing a pale face that can't tell how big it is, this face is suspended above Lin Yumo's head and casts a huge shadow, but Lin Yumo standing at its feet does not have the slightest sense of fear.
"Do you hear that? That's my answer! β
Suddenly, I saw that the pale mask opened its eyes, and its eyes were exactly the same as Lin Yumo's 'self' 'my face'.
If you want to know the truth, you must break through the barriers in front of you, the hypocritical infinity cannot see your own existence, and your own choice must be up to you! yes, aren't the weird organs on the previous page making up their own composition? Isn't the whole starry sky on this page my real 'face'?
There is no real 'my face' in that world, and if you want to see yourself, you have to jump out of the shackles of this world!
Although this huge mask seems to be hiding his face, he always has a sense of awkwardness, obviously it is also his own face, why does he feel so strange? It was as if because of the long and depressing pursuit, and unconsciously under the baptism of time, he forgot his original intention, and unconsciously brought on a mask called pursuit, yes, this mask - as if it was the embodiment of the lost self!
It's just that Lin Yumo, who has found himself, has not yet found himself, and at this time he seems to hear someone whispering in his ear: "Then, let's start like this!"
Lin Yumo's closed eyes slowly opened, and countless unknown and vague murmurs sounded in his ears, at this time, the mask hanging high in the air seemed to slowly open his closed eyes, and the eyes behind the mask flashed with a bright light like stars, no, it should be said that it was the light of the stars, the pupils looking at the unknown seemed to see through their own lives, and at this time, the mouth that was so exaggerated that it was impossible to understand.
In its slightly open mouth, there seemed to contain countless small mouths, these small mouths were constantly wriggling, muttering all kinds of strange syllables and vibrations, and in the end, these syllables and vibrations seemed to be under the influence of unconsciously forming a strange sentence in Lin Yumo's mind that although he could not understand it, he could clearly know its meaning.
"Let me ask, what is the end of the mystery you seek?"
In the dark, it seemed that someone had sent such a question to himself in his mind, but in the face of such a question, Lin Yumo suddenly had a feeling of being caught off guard!
It's not that Lin Yumo doesn't know how to answer, but he hasn't thought about something like that carefully, his previous life was to bury his head in hard work, work hard, and then bury his head just to move forward, and never think carefully about what lies ahead of him!
So, at this moment, Lin Yumo began to torture the true meaning of his heart!
ββFor me, what is the end of the mystery I seek? After contemplating constantly, and unconsciously entering the previous state of incomparable concentration and heart like a mirror, Lin Yumo finally got his own conclusion, so he didn't hesitate to speak: "Although I didn't think about it before, if it is now, I am sure that the mysterious end must have a hazy unknown, but it can allow me to find happiness, happiness and something amazing to realize my heart's desire again!" β
Such a simple and pure prayer is the embodiment of Lin Yumo's heart for the future he envisions, but it seems that this answer is not enough to satisfy this voice, so the rune that is now in Lin Yumo's mind has started a new round of changes, and it asked:
"Tell me, what happiness do you seek?"
"For me, happiness is the ability of a family to be happy together and live a pure and unfettered life, but because there are many constraints in the world, I can only pursue more power, more powerful power, the power to be able to ignore all obstacles and break a taboo! I once heard a saying - in this world, all tragedies are caused by the powerlessness of the person concerned, because of my powerlessness, I can only watch my own parents leave me forever! β
Speaking of this, Lin Yumo concluded in a strong tone that could not be suppressed even if he fell into the state of the mirror stopping water: "So, I want to find this power, which appears at the end of the mystery, can distort this qiΔ power!" β
"Rhetorical question! What happiness do you want? Is that the end of the mystery that you seek and chase? β
Hearing it, the voice seemed to be a little disappointed, but after Lin Yumo, who had fallen into a pure situation at this time, found out this, his response was the truest portrayal of his heart, and he seemed to hesitate, Lin Yumo continued: "If it can be realized, if it can be realized, if it can be realized, if the previous ones can be realized, I want to see if the scenery at the end of the mystery is as beautiful as I imagined!" β
Even if it is a shameless delusion, even if it is called too greedy, even if it is a miserable and inappropriate desire, but the real thoughts that emerge in Lin Yumo's heart at this time are really only this.
"The thoughts of a childlike child can only stop here, and that's all!"
Although the existence in the dark can not speak, but Lin Yumo can feel its deep helplessness from between the lines, for this, Lin Yumo can only take a deep breath, and then with sincerity and firmness, he said categorically: "Although it is disappointing, but that is me, and it is also the most real idea of Lin Yumo's humble existence at present, this is the idea that I have decided, and no one can change it!" I am who I am, and I will follow my own will, even if I am lonely, I will keep going! β
After saying this, even in this state of clarity, Lin Yumo still showed a relieved smile. Then, at the same time, his consciousness fell into darkness. It's just that in the space of consciousness that he can't see, the strange book changed back to the appearance of a seed after Lin Yumo lost consciousness, and a kind of flocculent entanglement like a net can be seen inside the seed, as if it was in contemplation, constantly flickering with a faint light, and the shell of the seed also emitted a flicker like breathing, bright and dim.
"In that case...... I shall obey your will, and your wishes will be fulfilled by your own hands! β
Therefore, this seed finally decided to leave Lin Yumo with the last glimmer of hope - as for whether Lin Yumo fell back into Chenlun or gained true transcendence in the end, this qiΔ will be a decision made by his own will, and he will no longer be involved with others!
At this moment, all kinds of mysteries and anomalies that Lin Yumo had experienced and accumulated before finally reached a qualitative change at this moment, and ushered in the most thorough outbreak, it is foreseeable that from this moment on, Lin Yumo's life and even his fate will usher in a complete change, but no one knows what its development direction is!
And in the very center of Lin Yumo's consciousness space, in the spiritual void that shimmered with golden streamers, under the quietly suspended seeds, a little golden liquid like ears of wheat suddenly accumulated, and this unknown liquid gathered more and more, until finally it could no longer attach to the bottom of the seeds, and turned into countless warm golden droplets sprinkled on the countless golden streamers in the spiritual void!
At this moment, the entire consciousness space seemed to hear the clear ding dong sound like a spring falling into a deep pool, and with the countless droplets of water as the core, in this silent and monotonous void, a series of vivid and warm golden ring-shaped ripples rippled in a circle, transmitting out to the endless distance.
And in the place where the ripples passed, the golden streamers all turned into the same golden sea water, and the entire consciousness space was almost occupied by the golden sea water, starting from a small water droplet, the entire consciousness space was under this uninterrupted change, and finally the entire consciousness space was completely rendered, becoming a sparkling microwave spiritual sea.
That seed, at the moment when the golden ocean completely occupied the consciousness space, completed the transformation from glazed mixed with golden light to complete transformation into brilliant gold, and with the ** tide on the spiritual sea, the surface of the seed also began to slowly spread out a strange pattern from simple to complex, which looked mysterious and abnormal, and could not be understood at all.
With the birth of the pattern, the tide around the seed is getting bigger and bigger, in the rising tide, under the influence of unknown forces, gradually formed a whirlpool that spreads to the entire spiritual sea, and the liquid golden light is constantly purified by the whirlpool, and then turns into a wisp of incomparably pure liquid golden light, which is absorbed by the seeds in the center.
And in this process, this golden light is still constantly stretching out its roots towards the void beyond the spiritual sea, and it is obvious that now this mysterious seed has not only completed its own recovery, but also begun to take root in this consciousness world that originally belonged to Lin Yumo.
As time passed, the golden seed beat faster and faster, and gradually produced a heart-like beat!
The sea surface that had already formed a whirlpool of waves before had now set off monstrous waves, and the mystical pattern, which had been completely constructed, also seemed to come to life and turned into countless spinning and flowing threads of light, which began to intertwine and entangle in mid-air, and finally formed a complex light cocoon composed of light that does not know how many layers there were.
At the moment when this light cocoon was formed, the spiritual sea that originally surrounded it suddenly became illusory and blurred, under the influence of the middle light cocoon, it seemed that the boundary between truth and falsehood was being broken by an unknown force, and at this moment, if he had already achieved the transcendent power of existence, then he could find that this seed had only completed the basic steps of creating the world by borrowing the insignificant power that it had stolen when the inhibition force fought against the alien magic power.
Although this is an illusory world that does not exist in real matter, the meaning of this act itself almost completely subverts the rules of conservation of energy that are almost unchangeable in the world.
After completing this action, this seed suddenly stretched out the wisps of filaments that appeared when stealing the magic power of the xenomorphs, and these filaments were interspersed with the void, and after a while, Lin Yumo's consciousness that he didn't know where to store in the void was pulled out, and then inhaled into his body.
After this, the entire Sea of Spirits seemed to have completed its mission and gradually began to fall silent, and even the time of the entire Sea of Spirits was temporarily stopped!
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a sudden vibration was generated in the depths of the spiritual sea, and countless shimmering glass-colored substances continued to overflow from the seeds, and finally these viscous tangible and qualitative substances seemed to be reshaped into Lin Yumo's body by a pair of invisible hands like a clay man, and then Lin Yumo's ignorant original consciousness also reawakened on this body, and the seed re-infiltrated Lin Yumo's soul and re-transformed into the core.
I don't know what I have experienced, at this moment, there are actually some more vicissitudes in Lin Yumo's gaze, and before Lin Yumo can react, the entire consciousness space suddenly excludes him, and at this time, the consciousness space regains silence again.
