"It's a pity that you can't drink, otherwise I could share this mountain brew with you."
In a sea of clouds hundreds of feet high from the top of the cliff mountain, Zhang Yan was half lying on the clouds, using the clouds as a lounge chair, holding a wine bottle in his hand, and a jar hanging on the side. He was drinking and joking while talking to a cloud-turned eye a few feet away in front of him.
The wine can indeed be called fairy wine. It was an immortal product that Wang Nian dug and sifted from the medicinal fields managed by Liu Xin and the grains grown in spiritual food. After many attempts and adjustments, it took hundreds of years to brew it. Putting aside the aspects that are helpful for cultivation, the taste of this wine is already the best among the wines Zhang Yan has ever drunk, bar none.
This made Zhang Yan, who had not drank alcohol for many years, suddenly regain some of the fun he had when drinking. Of course, it refers to the fun he has after drinking too much. There is no pleasure in drinking for a light drinker.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Yan finished speaking, a cloud-shaped human figure appeared next to him, reaching out and holding a cloud-shaped bowl in his hand. The meaning couldn't be clearer: pour some and taste it!
Zhang Yan was stunned by this scene. The wine bottle in his hand tilted subconsciously, and a stream of wine poured into the bowl that the other party stretched out.
"Can you taste it?" Zhang Yan suddenly found it funny when he came back to his senses. What he just said as a joke caused the other party to try. There is a sense of seeing the cow playing the piano and the cow really jumping up and down, which is weird and full of joy.
A voice with an awkward tone sounded from the mouth of the cloud-shaped humanoid: "It's just taste, what's the difficulty?" As he said this, he swallowed the wine in the bowl in a few mouthfuls, imitating Zhang Yan.
"Hahaha..." Zhang Yan laughed so much that he leaned back on the chair. After a while, he asked the other party: "Does it taste good?"
"I have no idea."
"Hahaha..." This was the answer Zhang Yan was waiting for, and he laughed so hard. "Do you think "taste the taste" means just having a sense of taste? Some people like spicy food, while others regard it as a savage beast and avoid it. Taste preferences vary greatly depending on the living environment.
Even the fairy wine I am talking about is just a subjective judgment of a good drinker. As a non-drinker, he would have thought that the sweet fruit wine on the roadside was much better than this.
Therefore, based on your experience, even if you have the most sensitive taste in the world, you will not be able to know what is "delicious" and what is "not delicious". You're just wasting my good stuff. "
The cloud-shaped human figure seemed to be thinking, and then dispersed after a moment. But the sound still came from all directions.
"You mean that I lack the life experience and habits of a living being? So no matter how similar I am, I can't be considered a living being, let alone have the feelings of a living being, right?" This time the voice no longer had the awkwardness before. His tone didn't even contain emotion.
Zhang Yan was more accustomed to the other party's tone. He smiled and said: "Yes. You are the main consciousness of the world. Although you have evolved living beings, from the moment the living beings appear to the time they die, they actually have nothing to do with you. There is no commonality at all, and There is no possibility of imitating each other.
Just like I can't guess your thinking pattern.
There is a saying that "summer insects cannot speak of ice." Although it is not accurate, it can clearly express the huge limitations of both.
Not to mention, why would you try to see things from a living creature’s perspective? Shouldn't you have your own way of doing things and thinking? "
This was a rare situation where Zhang Yan had communicated with the main consciousness of the Wild Sky Territory and the other party took the initiative to find him. And straight to the point is a question that Zhang Yan finds quite "nonsensical": How can we look at problems from the perspective of a living being?
In Zhang Yan's view, the main consciousness of the Wild Sky Domain represents the Wild Sky Domain itself. It is another existence higher than living things. He didn't even dare to say whether the world was a different kind of "living entity".
“The world’s way of thinking doesn’t suit me anymore.”
Zhang Yan was surprised to hear the other party's answer. He has always felt that the world has a fixed evolutionary line, and they follow this line to constantly change themselves, and finally reach a certain limit. Or there are no limits.
But now hearing what Huang Tianyu said, it seemed that it was not what Zhang Yan had always thought.
"The thinking of the world is related to evolution, and is derived from evolution as the main goal. Some are like creatures deriving various abilities or means of survival in order to survive.
Now my evolution has deviated from the path I should have taken. Many things also require me to think and judge, and I can no longer do what I did before.
So I need some new ways of thinking to solve today's increasingly complex evolutionary problems. "
"Deviation? Can evolution deviate from its direction?" Zhang Yan curiously raised his doubts. In his view, isn't evolution just a way of adapting to external forces and then naturally adapting to this force? Is there any clue to follow?
Unexpectedly, what Huang Tianyu said next directly subverted Zhang Yan's long-standing conjecture about the existence of this world.
The calm voice continued: "Do you dare to say that your practice trajectory is the same as the power system you inherited?"
"Of course..." The smile on Zhang Yan's face froze after he said the first three words. He really couldn't say that his cultivation path was the same as that inherited from the great world. The only thing that can be called "the same" is his cultivation stage and the methods and methods he used in the great world. But the core is very different from the inheritance of the great world.
Seeing Zhang Yan's hesitation, Huang Tianyu continued: "Do you understand my situation now? It's not easy to deal with odd numbers."
"So, your current evolution is all the direction you thought about yourself?"
"Yes. It evolved from the original evolutionary direction. Although it has gone in a different direction, it is still continuing in the original context for the time being. But many attempts are different from the original context."
"New attempt?"
"Yes. It is also those new attempts that make me feel that I can no longer just use the original way of thinking to look at the problem, but need to incorporate the way of thinking of living beings. In this way, I may be able to find key benefits in those new attempts, as well as follow-up The direction of evolution.”

Zhang Yan was silent for a moment and had to put away his previous dull mood, and began to pay attention to the affairs of the Wild Sky Territory. After a moment, he said: "Is the direction you are trying to go in the direction of the new independent spaces that appear in the cracks of space?"
"Yes, but not entirely. If the world wants to be thick, it must either continue to evolve new spaces, or evolve to thicken the energy structure. My idea is to evolve both together."
"So you have a problem?"
"Yes. The evolution of space must be accompanied by the generation of energy. I borrowed your emotions, and in the end there seemed to be some unexpected and strange deviations..."
