Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 146 Concept
At this time, Lin Qianxing felt that his strength was enough to deal with Moro.
But now he is no longer in a hurry to complete the game.
He planned to live with Zhong Ying for a while longer and learn more about the world.
In the past, he always had the obsession of defeating the devil in his heart, so he couldn't enjoy life properly.
So now he wants to make up for all the wasted time.
So Lin Qianxing took Zhong Ying to travel and enjoy the scenery, and they spent hundreds of years happily.
During these hundreds of years, Lin Qianxing clearly felt that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was not as strong as it was at the beginning.
It's become a little thinner.
In fact, Lin Qianxing has always known about this.
But he didn't care too much about it before. After all, even if the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was thin, it would have nothing to do with him as long as he passed the game.
However, over the long life, Lin Qianxing also developed some feelings for this world.
So he suddenly became concerned and wanted to solve it.
Lin Qianxing went to the underworld and found the three Yamas. He asked them about the principle of reincarnation and the reason why the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became thinner.
"After we build [Reincarnation] with the [Book of Life and Death] as the core, the creatures of this world can enter a cycle through reincarnation. When the creatures enter the cycle, they can drive the self-circulation of the world, thus restoring order to the world." Yan Tai explained to Lin Qianxing: "However, in the process of this reincarnation cycle, there will be losses after all, and the matter and energy between heaven and earth are limited, so the cycle will suddenly stop one day, and the world will fall into deathly silence..."
Listening to Yan Tai's story, Lin Qianxing seemed to understand something in his heart.
Isn't this entropy increase?
In an isolated system, the operation of all things will lead to an increase in entropy until death.
The only way to solve this problem is to make it no longer isolated and introduce external forces.
But where does the external force come from?
This is a dead end!!
Ever since the collapse of the Heavenly Dao, this world can no longer operate under the regulation of the Heavenly Dao and obtain energy from the chaotic energy of the boundless void.
"Is it possible to recreate a Heavenly Dao?" Lin Qianxing asked on a whim.
"Impossible." Jiang Ze, the Yama of Samsara, shook his head and said, "No one can replace the Heavenly Dao. It is the absolute existence that coordinates the operation of all the rules of the entire heaven and earth. Its power is absolutely incomparable to that of ordinary cultivators. Even if there are a thousand or ten thousand Daoists, they cannot replace the existence of the Heavenly Dao."
Lin Qianxing also realized that he was overthinking. He shook his head and said, "Let's think of a way to make this cycle more detailed. At least that way, maybe the world can last longer."
Soon after, Lin Qianxing left the underworld.
He walks in the world of the living, observing their civilization in the present mortal realm.
Today's spiritual machines have been integrated into the lives of mortals, guiding every aspect of their lives.
Although compared to cultivators, the spiritual energy they can directly utilize is much less, and the structure of the spiritual equipment seems simple and crude, but many aspects of it made Lin Qianxing's eyes light up and he was greatly inspired.
For example, a furnace built by connecting a single "fire-starting" pattern in series.
A single fire-starting pattern is just a small flame, but when there are enough of them and they are gathered together through spiritual machinery, their high temperature is enough to easily melt various ores.
Moreover, its consumption is also extremely small. At the bottom of the furnace, spiritual energy is gathered through the "Spirit Gathering" Dao pattern, and then stored in spiritual jade and preserved until it is activated when needed.
The structure is simple and efficient.
In today's world, many spiritual machines are based on this principle.
At this time, a spiritual mechanical bird slowly flew across the sky , and its shadow covered Lin Qianxing's figure.
Lin Qianxing looked up and was filled with emotion. The few casual moves he made at the beginning could actually develop into what it is now.
Unfortunately, if this civilization cannot transcend the world, it will eventually perish and fall into extinction.
Shaking his head, Lin Qianxing didn't think any more, but took a step forward and returned to Sanbao Temple.
Time continues to pass as Lin Qianxing tries to solve the problem of the cycle of heaven and earth.
Soon, Lin Qianxing was already three thousand four hundred years old.
During this period of time, the development of mortals exceeded Lin Qianxing's imagination. They developed extensively, built cities everywhere, updated spiritual technology, created many spiritual weapons, and fought several major battles. The destructive power of some spiritual weapons was even enough to rival the power of top spells.
When Mount Lushan was almost affected, Lin Qianxing directly used his own great power to move the entire Mount Lushan into the spiritual world.
The spiritual energy in the spiritual world is rich and is actually more suitable for cultivators than the outside world.
Of course, in today's world, the spiritual energy of the spiritual world is also becoming increasingly thin, but it is not noticeably thinner, so most cultivators have not noticed it.
After living in the spiritual world for two years, Lin Qianxing suddenly discovered that he seemed to have a solution to the problem of the world gradually falling into silence.
In a sense, the spiritual world is also an isolated system.
It is just that it can convert and obtain spiritual energy from the outside world, so as to maintain the rich spiritual energy inside for the monks to practice.
So, if this entire world could obtain energy from the chaos of the boundless void like the spiritual world, the problem of death would be easily solved.
Lin Qianxing found Yan Luo and told him his thoughts.
"We have thought about this method and even tried it, but absorbing spiritual energy through formations and obtaining energy from the boundless void are two completely different things." Jiang Ze explained to Lin Qianxing: "The chaotic energy in the void can dissolve all things and is harmful to the world itself. Only under the filtering and guidance of the way of heaven can it be decomposed into various energies and substances that are beneficial to the world."
"Is it a concentration problem?" Lin Qianxing asked.
He had only learned a little bit of information about the chaotic energy in the boundless void from Zhou Quanhai. He did not understand the specific situation, so at this time he could only rely on speculation to understand the information about the chaotic energy.
In his opinion, the boundless void might be the ocean, the chaotic air in it was the sea water, and the world was the islands in the sea water.
It is impossible for people living on the island to drink seawater directly, so the island’s soil and various ecological cycles are needed to convert seawater into drinkable fresh water before it can be drunk and absorbed.
"That's not wrong." Jiang Ze nodded.
"Then wouldn't it be enough to just dilute and filter it?" Lin Qianxing said.
"That's the problem. How to dilute it?" Yan Tai took over the conversation and said to Lin Qianxing: "The chaotic energy contains infinite rules and information. It is extremely chaotic. Apart from the Heavenly Dao who can control the operation of a certain world, who can dilute it and then accurately absorb the beneficial substances and eliminate the harmful ones?"
Lin Qianxing fell silent. The Heavenly Dao was like the important core of the world. It coordinated everything and kept everything running.
Once lost, the world will find it difficult to maintain even the most basic cycles, and it seems unlikely to regain vitality.
If it is impossible to obtain energy and materials from the outside, the internal cycle will sooner or later die.
This really seems to be a dead end?
"Don't worry, we still have time." Yan Tai patted Lin Qianxing on the shoulder.
Lin Qianxing shook his head and left the underworld again.
After returning to the spiritual world, Lin Qianxing sat in Lushan to think for several years, denying his own ideas one after another.
After such a long time, the three Yamas must have thought of all the possible solutions.
The possibilities he could think of now were probably already proven to be unfeasible.
With a thought, Lin Qianxing released the seal on the demon in his body.
In the past three thousand years, Lin Qianxing has been sealing Moro's perception and speech, preventing him from having any contact with the outside world. After more than three thousand years in this situation, no one knows what Moro's current state is.
In fact, at the beginning, Lin Qianxing did not intend to lock him up for so long. He only planned to lock him up for a few months, a few years, or even a dozen years to wear down his will and make him more cooperative.
But Lin Qianxing ignored this matter as he was imprisoned, and later he didn't care about it at all. He just planned to release him and kill him when he passed the level.
Now he really has no other choice but to let Moro out to get some fresh air and communicate with him to see if he can get some relevant information.
"Moro, how are you?" Lin Qianxing asked.
After a long time, a vague answer was transmitted to Lin Qianxing's sea of consciousness.
"Kill...Kill me! Give me a quick death!!!"
Moro's mental fluctuations seemed a little agitated. After being cut off from his perception for more than three thousand years, the fact that he had not gone completely crazy already showed that he had a strong character.
Now he had only one thought, which was to let Lin Qianxing kill him and stop torturing him.
"I want to get this world back to normal, do you have any ideas?" Lin Qianxing asked.
There was also a long silence, and then, driven by the plug-in [Divine Spell Master], the voice of Mo Luo was heard, and he replied: "It's impossible. Without the Heavenly Dao, this world can no longer function. Now it is like a corpse with only a shell left. Without a soul, it is destined to die..."
"Stop!" Lin Qianxing suddenly stopped Mo Luo and asked, "What did you just say?"
"This world can no longer function and is doomed to die," Moro replied.
"Not this sentence. You said the world is like a corpse with only a shell left?" Lin Qianxing said.
"That's right. If we regard the world as a living being, the world itself is its flesh and the Heavenly Dao is its soul. After the Heavenly Dao collapses, it is like a body without a soul, destined to die." Mo Luo said anxiously: "I can tell you everything I know, can you give me a quick death? I really can't stand it!!!"
Lin Qianxing didn't care about the second half of Moluo's sentence, but was thinking about the first half of what he said.
A body without a soul, isn’t that a zombie?
Zombies can move from death to rebirth, and then give birth to spirituality and possibly even souls. So can the world also use a similar method to give birth to a new way of heaven?
Just like enlightening spiritual plants, enlighten this world!!!
