Chapter 16: Goldfinger
My gold finger is so special, so special that I've used it 377 times and still don't know what it is.
On the first night I crossed over to this Xiuzhen Xianxia world, that is, the night when I was saved by my master Xie Kang who discovered that he had an ethereal root, and it was also in the middle of the night that I entered the Golden Finger Space for the first time.
Then, I went through a lot.
After a long year, I tried a little bit, and I can be regarded as summing up something about this golden finger space.
First of all, when I enter the space, I stay there for twenty-four hours, which is a full day and a night. I've counted this time with breathing, and I've measured it with other counting methods, not a minute or a second, and it's not less.
But how long did it take for me to be inside for twenty-four hours from the time I entered the space to the time I left it?
I've also measured.
I deliberately knocked over a cup of tea when I entered the space, but when I left, the tea was still in the air. I deliberately slipped a needle between my fingers as I entered the space, but the needle was still hanging between my fingers when I left. I used many, many methods before I finally understood. Maybe the time interval between me entering and exiting the golden finger space is completely immeasurable from the outside world, it is seamless, and there is no gap.
Therefore, Master Xie Daoqing has been monitoring me for a long, long time, but he has not found any loopholes, mistakes, or abnormalities in me, and he can only be classified as gifted, rather than hiding some genius treasures, psychic magic weapons, and the souls of his predecessors.
Secondly, I found this space to be an illusory, a fantasy world. Although it has a boundary, I have also measured, it is a huge cube of space that is ten kilometers in length, width and height.
Then, I can "create" in this world. With my imagination, I can construct a chair, a bed, a wall, a bridge, a tree, a dog out of thin air. Then, last month, I built "myself" for the first time.
A wooden man-like blank self. Naked, like a biochemical robot in a science fiction movie, his eyes are glazed, his body is stiff, and he can't make any movements.
But I'm still happy.
Because this blank "self" is now cultivating the "Pure Cultivation Chapter", in the span of thirty-three days, "he" has already cultivated to the second level of the Qi refining period. Next to "him", there is also an identical "me", this "me" is created by me last night, and the cultivation is the "Qingxiao Thunder Yuan Jue" that I found last night.
However, it is not the version I gave Xie Baoqin.
On that inscription rubbing, in addition to "Qingxiao Lei Yuanjue", there are actually many things. Those patterns, bird seal runes, and ghost runes actually have a role. Even those deformed Thunder Seal Runes have new and deeper explanations.
This is based on one of the most powerful functions of my gold finger.
Space and creation are just the outward appearance of my golden finger, in fact, it should be regarded as a kind of "system" with super computing power. It can be said that it is the kind of powerful light brain of aliens in science fiction novels, or the computing power of the gods in the DND world, or the pure yang magic weapon in this world that deduces the heavenly machine, anyway, it is very powerful, too powerful.
I can only define its power by the naïve concept I learned in the last world computer class, which is to measure its speed by simulating binary calculations. But I'm not a computer science student, so I can only say that it's more powerful than all the computing devices I've ever played, seen, or theoretically recognized, and probably more powerful than the supercomputers in the previous world.
Billions per second, hundreds of billions per second, trillions per second, trillions per second, trillions per second?
After the first 10 days of excitement, I don't care what it works now, I just use it. Use it as a "black box" and use it with all its functions and all its limits.
I stretched out my fingers and let go of my mind, and the myriad streams of information flowed out of my mind and escaped in the air. Then there was a slight fluctuation in the space, the light and shadow were swaying, faintly hazy, and a green curtain of light appeared in front of me. Then, what I have done, what I have said, what I have read, what I have thought about today, all come to mind.
And then there's the datawaterfall that I set up to mimic The Matrix. Countless green figures slid down from the top of the light curtain, surging like a waterfall. Countless things that I can't see are working behind the waterfall, countless information is interacting, countless programs are working, countless equations, logic, judgments, and thresholds that I have set are working, countless information that I have stored in front of me is extracted, countless possibilities are exhaustively enumerated, and countless probabilistic processes are listed.
It only took ten seconds for everything to come to fruition.
Very good.
Today, my daily behavior is in the room for error that can be expressed. Like a fourteen-year-old boy from this world, he is confined to his own family background, so he uses his own mind to climb, but he is careful but does not know that the sky is actually watching his ignorance. Like a fourteen-year-old boy who has just developed, he has a hazy affection and pursuit for girls, but he doesn't know how to express it, so he always makes some small movements that pretend to be old and are actually ridiculous in the eyes of the superiors. Like a fourteen-year-old smart boy, he knows that his position as a senior brother is actually empty, has no foundation, and is roasted on the fire, but he is obsessed with power, and even more obsessed with the bright future that his own spiritual root excellence can bring, so he insists on not investing easily while anxiously looking for more knowledge.
I was very successful in my performance.
I had to be so careful, I had to go and perform as well.
In the last world I died I was already a forty-five-year-old adult man, and a full-grown man with a lot of experience and thoughts, and in this world, I was just a little boy of thirteen or fourteen years old. If I didn't have the golden finger, although I would have been a little clumsy at the beginning, and there would have been some mistakes, I think it would be okay to use my past life experience to lurk and mix in with Lianyun Peak and be an ordinary disciple. Find the best qi method you can find, and then cultivate step by step, gain strength, fight, kill, plunder wealth, plunder women, establish a family, build power, climb up, and go to this new life in style.
However, on the first day I crossed over, I found out that I had a super powerful golden finger. I easily cut off all the memories of my previous world, and easily sorted them out of the mess, so that I understood how many mistakes I made in the previous world, how many bad things I did, how many people I failed, and let me understand what was going on with the thorny nets that were wrapped around me in the first place, and how I should fight back, attack, and kill correctly. According to Goldfinger's deduction, if I can do half of the muscular tough guy in those Hollywood spy movies, I can easily escape, if I can do the same as them, I can get revenge, if I can do exactly the same as Goldfinger's list, maybe I will be the winner, to be the new American senator, to rule everything about those enemies, to play with their families for the rest of their lives, and to make them all fall into hell.
It was like an epic that shook me.
And then the memories of the physical body that I inherited in this world were also easily cut off, and they were also easily calculated, and many, many possibilities were listed. Learning from the results of the information explosion in the modern world of the previous world, I saw through it on the first day, and the path I had thought of was actually impassable.
Although the mother of this body is just a concubine with a very low status, and she is only a concubine who is about the same as a slave, and the status of a mule in the Chen mountain city, the difference between him and a real slave is that he can read, his surname is Chen, he can practice martial arts, he can enter the clan to read, and he can follow the elders to broaden his horizons. According to the original trajectory of fate, if he is not disturbed, he will be determined by the Chen family according to the assessment of academic progress, temperament, body, martial arts progress, life and so on, as a training object such as officials, literature, military generals, chambers of commerce, housekeepers, Zhuangtou, and Kutou, so as to serve the real descendants of the next generation of the Chen family.
But the truth is that the Chen family's plans are not reliable, and my own plans are not reliable.
From the memory of this body, Goldfinger extracted all the words he had read, all the things he had experienced, and all the experiences he had learned about the fundamentals of the world, and showed me a cruel world of cultivation.
A huge plane so vast that mortals don't even know the edge, a vast sea of the sky that is unimaginably magnificent, and countless landmasses much larger than the Eurasian continent are distributed like islands in the sea of the sky. On the top of the heads of mortals are countless cultivators, above the heads of cultivators are countless powerful monks, and above the heads of powerful monks are Dao ancestors hanging high in the void starry sky. The number of mortal sects, the number of mortal cultivators, and the unknown number of cultivators have monopolized almost all the resources in this world.
Wealth is dependent on power, abundance comes from war, and prosperity is based on killing.
The laws that are common in the earth world are also common in this world.
Qi training, foundation building, Jindan, Yuan Ying, Yuan Shen, Dao Ancestor, the six simple levels of cultivators. Dao spells, heart and nature, the six characters of cultivation that have been circulated. Qingyun Mountain, Shangqing Mountain, Taixuan Mountain, Tianmu Sect, and Shendan Sect are recognized as the top sects in many cultivation worlds. Langxie Mountain King, Luofu Mountain Chen, Zhuzhu Mountain Willow, Kunshan Zheng, Xingchen Mountain Fu, Huanglong Valley Village, Longkong Mountain Forest, Quyang Mountain Kong, these are the twenty-two top gate valves inside Qingyun Mountain. Lian Yun Feng Xie, Hongyun Feng Du, Zhiyun Feng Lin, Xiao Yun Feng Fan, these are several Jindan real people around Lian Yun Peak. Xie, Liu, Ni, Fang, He, Qin, these are several ruling families in Lianyun Peak.
And then there's that.
Before I was not a third-generation disciple of Lianyun Peak, the Chen Clan's mountain city was under the jurisdiction of Uncle Fang Datong, the southeastern governor of Lianyun Peak, and was located in a strange place called Dongbo Mountain, and fought back and forth with more than a dozen mountain cities around it, just like the chaotic Warring States period of Japan.
That is to say, in the past year, I have secured the position of senior brother, so that the Chen mountain city can become independent and become an independent mountain city under the jurisdiction of Uncle Fang, so that I can get out of the chaotic war situation around me and have a little time to recuperate.
