"Master Merlin, could it be that your 'Beyond Limit Cognition' realm can enlighten living beings?"

"Enlightenment? Barely so. But that's not the point I'm going to make. ”

"Oh?"

"After the Divine Ruins Treasure House came out this time, a few of our old guys discussed it, and we have basically determined what is going on with 'Shenwei'."

"What?"

When Ji Xun heard this, he immediately became very interested.

He had learned the divine power of Gong Wu before.

But even the old man himself couldn't tell what it was.

If you really want to say it, it's an "indescribable" feeling.

Now figured it out?

Merlin glanced at Ji Xun and continued, "Your physical foundation is very good, far surpassing any card master of the same level I have seen. Because of this, the bottleneck behind you will be unusually high. So you have to be prepared in advance. ”

After a pause, he smiled again: "That old guy from Gong Wu pointed out a clear path to 'Shenwei' for everyone. And it just so happens that my ability can be regarded as a shortcut on this road. ”

Ji Xun knew that this legendary master was going to guide him, so he sincerely asked: "So senior, what is Shenwei?" ”

Merlin smiled mysteriously and said, "Before that, I'll ask you a question. ”

After a pause, he said, "What do you think 'meaning' is?" ”

"This."

Although Ji Xun touched the threshold of Yi.

But that's a feeling, and I can't describe it exactly.

If you think about it carefully, what can be described is what "crisis sense" and "sixth sense" are.

Merlin didn't wait for him to answer, and slowly said: "Eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, among the five senses of people, only 'vision' is the strongest. But at the moment, it seems that the 'world' can be seen with the naked eye, and I estimate that it is less than 5% of the real world; Meaning is the sixth consciousness of human beings. It allows people to perceive the world that the five senses cannot touch. It is like a legendary deity, in the eyes of ordinary people, it cannot be looked at, cannot be described, and cannot be named. Strictly speaking, it is actually a limited perception. Your 'mind' can't express what you can't understand, so you can't see it. ”

“.”

Ji Xun listened and fell into deep thought.

I've heard this before.

And the more you improve, the more profound the experience.

Now that he had advanced to the fourth order, he would find that the laws of the universe in his eyes were more mysterious than what he could see in the previous third order.

It's just that the more you know, the more you feel, the more you feel "ignorant".

And Master Merlin's words gave him a vague concept of "meaning".

Meaning is like a pair of eyes that can't be seen.

Ji Xun pondered for a moment, guessed something along the way, and suddenly said, "So, meaning is the introduction of Shenwei?" ”

"Yes!"

Merlin confirmed this statement in a firm tone for the first time, "Didn't I say it before, I have researched and confirmed that the human soul is not in any part of the body. Not in the heart, not in the brain. And guess where? ”

This question whetted his appetite, and Ji Xun was also very curious.

He uttered one of his conjectures: "Like 'qi', attached to the whole person? ”

Merlin shook his head and said negatively, "No." ”

He pointed to the research table and did not answer directly, but asked again, "What shape do you think this lamp is?" ”

Ji Xun looked at the hexagonal alchemy lamp, and said in an unconfident tone: "Hexagon? ”

He knew that what this master wanted to ask would not be so simple.

But I can't think of any other answer.

Merlin didn't say right or wrong, a glimmer of wisdom flashed in his eyes, and he continued to ask, "What about this lamp. What about the shape on that piece of paper? ”

Shadow?

Ji Xun vaguely caught something, and responded: "It's like a twisted leaning tower." ”

"Yes."

Merlin nodded, and then asked, "If we are low-latitude creatures living on that piece of paper, can you be sure that the tower you see is the true form of the lamp?" ”

After a series of rhetorical questions, Ji Xun fell into deep thought.

The shadow is just a phase, not the lamp itself.

Merlin didn't sell it anymore, and directly said the answer: "'Consciousness' or 'consciousness' is the projection of the soul in the body. ”

“.”

Ji Xun listened as if a flash of thunder flashed in his mind, and his gaze froze.

I also understood why Master Merlin asked the question of the table lamp.

The light they saw with the naked eye was hexagonal, but when it was projected on paper, it was a strange shape.

The shape seen is directly related to the visual angle.

It follows from this that even what is seen with the naked eye may not be completely accurate.

It may be a limited cognition, distorted.

Seeing this, Merlin continued: "Meaning is the projection of the soul in the body, and knowing where it is, this is the stability of the personality. And when you comprehend divine power, the person is raised. At the soul level, it is actually the difference between the personalities of 'personality' and 'demigods'."

As soon as these words came out.

For the first time, Ji Xun so clearly perceived what "meaning" was.

The feeling that was ethereal before has become descriptible, and you can even try to control it.

It's like a light in the dark.

There is also a clear direction for thinking.

For a moment, he fell into a very strange state of epiphany.

Merlin had already guided him in the right direction, and continued: "The world that human beings see must be limited by their own level of self-knowledge. Therefore, 'meaning' is a very important transcendent means of perception to understand the universe. The stronger this perception, the faster you will comprehend the law."

At this point, he paused and finally stated: what is Kamui.

Merlin said: "'Yi' can be tempered and strengthened. Make it tough and take on its own form. The so-called 'iron will', 'rock-like will', and 'flame-like will' are actually the process and result of this tempering. And the final form is stable, and the meaning at that time can be called. Divinity! ”

Merlin hadn't been able to articulate that vague feeling before.

But now that I went to the treasure house of the Divine Ruins, and the example of Gong Wu, everything is clear.

"You've just advanced, and your rank is unstable, and that's when you're most malleable. And you have just touched the threshold of 'will', which is not stable enough, and it is also the best time to guide. And my realm is just right to guide your mind."

Ji Xun listened, his eyes gradually drifted.

I just felt as if someone was talking in my ear.

But at the moment, he was already immersed in some kind of mysterious state of perception, wandering out of the world.

It was as if the mind and the world were stiff.

Ji Xun didn't know that in front of him, Master Mei Lin had quietly expanded the field.

I don't know how long it took.

Ji Xun's dilated pupils gradually focused.

It was as if the soul had just returned to its body, and the sound of saws sawing bones was heard.

And Master Merlin's admiration: "Yo, that's good." It lasted two hours, which was much higher than I expected."

When Ji Xun heard this, he was a little incredulous, and instinctively asked, "It's been two hours?" ”

In his perception, it was like wandering for a moment.

He also immediately guessed that this was due to the influence of the field.

Master Merlin's ability made Ji Xun instinctively pop up some strange words in his mind: 時間よ止. AVI

Although it is not a pause in time, human perception is really unaware of the passage of time.

If you really want to be hostile, two hours is enough to kill him 10,000 times.

"yes."

Merlin explained, "I used 'Beyond Limit Cognition' to help you improve your brain domain development a little bit, and also helped you guide 'Yi'. This will make your perception and perception efficiency much higher later. But after all, you have to rely on your own penance. ”

It sounds like the principle of a flash flood widening the river.

Ji Xun didn't rush to think about what happened, and said respectfully: "Thank you, Master Merlin." ”

"You don't have to be so polite."

Merlin didn't mean to say much, and continued his research on his own.

Whether it was Gong Wu's entrustment or that young lady, he had 10,000 reasons to help Ji Xun.

Even if it takes a lot of energy.

The process is far from as easy as it seems.

It's like crafting a work of art, and the slightest mistake can be destroyed in no time.

Merlin didn't elaborate on the process, but said indifferently: "Okay, now that you have successfully advanced, don't stay here." I'm not safe here now. ”

Hearing this, Ji Xun glanced at the person wrapped in the shroud in the glass jar, and knew what he was referring to.

This eighty percent is a dangerous "pollution source" of scarlet pollution.

Master Merlin gave a big gift, all the words of thanks were too pale, Ji Xun didn't say much, turned around and said goodbye: "Master Merlin, then I'll go first." ”

Merlin didn't look back: "Hmm. Be sure to send some blood samples every once in a while. ”

Ji Xun: "Okay! ”

I have just advanced to the fourth order, and my realm is not yet stable.

Ji Xun left the laboratory and casually found a deserted basement to continue meditating and retreating, digesting and stabilizing the realm.

In the dark room, he lit the lamp and meditated while flipping through the books.

The perception of "meaning" is now very clear.

He could clearly perceive that the world in his eyes was obviously different.

Ji Xun can't accurately describe how much he has improved.

However, not long after he sat down, he was looking at the classics, and immediately found the problem: "Hey, your thoughts are so clear?" ”

Only then did he realize what Master Merlin meant by helping him improve his brain domain development by the way.

Although I can't forget it, what my eyes see still needs my brain to digest and remember.

And what he is holding in his hand now is the exclusive secret method [Joker's Shadow Trick] that he got before.

I've seen this secret method before.

Even if there is a temporary comprehension blessing in the secret realm, it is very obscure.

The more difficult the content, the slower the brain will process it.

But now, looking at the characters and patterns he had memorized before, he was now very smoothly deducing words in his mind that he could understand.

Ji Xun looked at the secret method that was gradually being understood, and gasped in his heart, "Hey, is this the benefit of brain domain development?" ”

The brain's processing efficiency is so high that it feels like a dream.

Thinking of trying again, he took out a few high-level card master classics that he had been reading very hard before, and opened them.

This time, the look on his face became more and more intense.

Ji Xun's original reading efficiency was very high.

The efficiency of reading a book will vary depending on the depth of the book's content.

However, at this moment, his eyes flickered frequently, and he glanced at ten lines.

What I thought was obscure before is now clearly written down and understood in my mind.

"That's amazing."

Ji Xun's eyes could not hide the sparkle.

He felt like his brain was like a newer computer, several times faster than it had been able to process information before.

The improvement of wisdom brought by brain domain development is not superimposition, but geometric multiplication.

It feels very good!

Seeing this, Ji Xun had confirmed that the "wisdom ascension" he had obtained was real, and said to himself: "I really owe Master Merlin a great favor."

Thinking of this, he sighed again: "But then again, the card master of the [Wisdom] path turns out to have such a strong learning ability." No wonder those polymaths claim to be mobile libraries"

Ji Xun was thoughtful.

Even if he has already thought about his future career advancement, he can consider ways to improve his wisdom.

As soon as his mind turned, he immersed himself in effective meditation and study.

Flashing for days.

After the battle of the "Treasure House of Divine Ruins", the population of the city of innocence is not one in a hundred.

This also frightened countless speculators and hunters who wanted to make a fortune in the Old World.

For a while, the bustling city of innocence became deserted.

But as the news spread throughout the Federation that the survivors had received advanced inheritance in the treasury, a large number of legends of the sudden wealth were printed in the newspapers. In the blink of an eye, it attracted countless adventurers to pour in one after another.

Moreover, the "Seventh Order" has turned from a legend into a reality, and the strategic significance of the Old Continent is even more extraordinary.

The five federal parliamentarians and those big forces knew that the opportunity could not be lost, and they also increased their investment one by one.

Countless official legions, hunter regiments, and mercenaries also arrived day and night.

In just a few days, the city of innocence has returned to its former bustle.

Ji Xun originally planned to stay in the basement for a few more days.

Unexpectedly, the ruins where he was hiding were favored by a group of real estate developers, and the roar of steam machinery interrupted the penance.

Fortunately, the realm is almost stable, and Ji Xun also feels that he should go out for a walk and breathe.

Not long after, Ji Xun came to Downing Street.

This entertainment district is even more bustling than before.

The streets are full of people and traffic.

But most of them are new faces.

Downing Street was previously controlled by the Brotherhood gang and the old gangsters of Innocence City, and now there are basically no familiar faces in sight.

There are benefits, though.

The original pattern was completely broken, and a new order was established.

Now there are a lot of uniformed sheriffs on the streets.

The City of Innocence has changed from a chaotic crime city to a bustling city with stable law and order.

Walking and walking, before I knew it, I came to 1 Downing Street.

Honglou is still bustling and lively.

Ji Xun looked at the familiar Hong Lou, and his eyes gradually deepened.

He walked in.

The hall is still full of lively performances.

However, most of the actors on the stage are fresh faces.

Obviously, it has only been more than ten days, but this feeling of being a person makes Ji Xun feel as if time has passed a long, long time.

He didn't know where he was going.

Aimless.

Walking and walking went backstage again.

It's still a familiar line, it's still a familiar chief dressing room.

Ji Xun saw a familiar fat man.

"Oh, Monica, you're so beautiful today. Sorry I've been too busy lately. I don't know why my grandmother left the business of the family's Innocence City completely in my hands, and I have to deal with too many things in the Chamber of Commerce every day. And a month later, I have to go back to Black Gold City to participate in the family council. ”

"I know you love dancing and acting, and although you agreed to my proposal, I will not interfere with any of your decisions and respect everything about you. I mean, we can go back together this time, and I'm sure we'll be blessed by the elders of the clan."

“.”

Ji Xun glanced at it.

Song Can, who was dressed in a straight suit, was particularly capable under the light.

Looking at this steady and mature outfit, he guessed that this fat man had begun to take over the high-level management authority of the Song family.

Slowly, he will take over the entire Song family.

And this fat man seems to be in a good relationship.

Miss Monica, whom she had seen in the secret realm before, did not refuse.

The words of the two were full of affection.

Ji Xun glanced at it and smiled slightly.

Although Monica's identity was doubtful, since Song Can knew, he didn't want to talk too much.

Just bless.

Ji Xun walked through the dressing room, and he didn't know where he was going for a while.

Song Yu is gone, Qin Ru should have gone to the Old Continent, and Nanjing doesn't know where she went after seeing her mother.

Ji Xun found out that in the Hong Building, he didn't seem to have any friends to find.

He originally wanted to leave, but as if he was guided by some mysterious force, he walked to the back of the stage.

There are a few small rooms in a remote corner that are hardly frequented.

Ji Xun didn't know why he came here while walking.

I wanted to turn around and leave, but I didn't think that he had just walked past one of the warehouses full of stage props, but he suddenly stopped.

There was a sign on the door: Screenwriter's Office.

The door was half-hidden, Ji Xun glanced at it, and stood on the spot.

He looked into the room, in the orange light, a plainly dressed guy was burying his head in writing and drawing on the script.

The man also sensed something, looked up, as if he saw an acquaintance, and smiled slightly.

Ji Xun's pupils shrank suddenly: "Jia Yu? ”

He never expected to meet acquaintances here.

No.

To be precise, it was not Jia Yu he knew in front of him.

Ji Xun walked in and looked at the thin mushroom head in front of him, his expression was very complicated.

It seems to be the person I know.

But there is also a stranger feeling.

It's like a familiar soul in a familiar body.

Both are familiar, but when put together, they are a little unfamiliar.

And before, he obviously watched the "mushroom head" die in the secret realm.

Jia Yu was very indifferent: "Please take a seat." Here's where the conditions are a little worse. Drink tea? ”

As he spoke, he poured a cup of hot tea, "I only have tea here." The 'red plum tea' of Heijin City tastes very good. My teacher used to like to drink a lot. ”

Ji Xun took the teacup: "Thank you." ”

After the mushroom head arrived at the tea, he picked up the pen again and began to hurry, "You wait a little." This is the script that the regiment will use tomorrow, and I have to change it. Oh, the new supervisor really didn't understand art at all, and he made a mess of my script."

"Hmm. You get busy first. ”

Ji Xun didn't speak when he listened.

Just silently looked at the mushroom head in front of him like an ordinary screenwriter, with a bitter face on the script that had been painted everywhere, revising some character dialogues.

Although Ji Xun guessed that the occupation sequence of this mushroom head was [Bard].

But I really didn't think that his real profession is really an ordinary screenwriter.

It's not just him.

In other words, no one would have thought that the famous leader of the Thirteen Kamen Riders, "Light Chaser", would be an inconspicuous screenwriter of the Royal Song and Dance Troupe of the Federation.

A few minutes later, Jia Yu finished writing and happily closed the pen: "It's done!" ”

Turning his face, he looked at Ji Xun: "You have advanced." Congratulations. ”

"Thank you."

Ji Xun hesitated a little and asked, "What should I call you?" ”

Jia Yu didn't care: "It's good as usual." ”

Ji Xun still felt a little unfamiliar, and confirmed: "Are you a light chaser?" ”

Jia Yu said casually: "Hmm." ”

This time he didn't say anything awkward, "I'm the one who chases the light, but the one who chasers the light isn't me."

Instead, he admitted it outright.

Ji Xun's eyes narrowed slightly as he listened.

But at the same time, he looked at the pale and weak face in front of him, and his brows furrowed.

Although he didn't know what was going on with the mushroom head.

But this guy's qi is very weak at the moment.

It's like a flickering candle flame that could die at any moment.

It is impossible for a powerhouse like a Light Chaser to not even be able to control his own qi.

The only explanation is that he was very badly injured.

It's so serious that you can't solve it at all.

The white hair on his sideburns also reminded Ji Xun of his own previous situation when his life was approaching.

In an instant, Ji Xun's thoughts flew and he thought too much.

He asked in a deep voice, "Why was the [Sismark Holy Grail] before. You're going to give it to me? ”

Now it's over.

Everything is laid out clearly.

If he guessed correctly, Jia Yu went to find the Holy Grail before, but he didn't just want to help.

Most likely, it was guessed that the cost of this plan was very high.

Even only the Holy Grail could save his own life.

But even if he foresaw today's result, he didn't mention it at all.

Instead, he asked Ji Xun to drink the holy water.

The water of the Holy Grail takes at least a few decades to accumulate into a cup.

In other words, he gave what may be the only chance to survive to Ji Xun.

When Jia Yu heard him ask this question, he didn't deny it, and said very indifferently: "That's not important. ”

And it doesn't matter yet?

Ji Xun's expression became more and more complicated as he listened.

Looking at his expression, Jia Yu smiled, didn't explain much, but said an irrelevant proposal: "Play poker?" Rhodes cards, two people can play. ”

Ji Xun glanced at the poker he had already taken out, and hesitated for a moment: "Okay!" ”
