This move alone is enough to show Cao An's strong foundation and strong sense of the energy of heaven and earth.
Ordinary martial artists, let alone the realm of gods and humans, even those in the realm of Yin and God, may not be able to do all this as easily as him. Huangfu Meng was slightly shocked, but was quickly pulled back to his original state by Cao An's actions. among the topics.
Under Cao An's guidance, the energy body gradually became clear and fixed. It was a small piece of land with water, mountains, and vegetation. Although it was not substantial, there were humans and two beasts, one large and one small.
"Let's think of this person as a sentient being with intelligence between heaven and earth, and this piece of land is regarded as this world. At this time, there are mountains, water, grass and trees, and wild animals in the heaven and earth. In order to survive, the wisdom species will Eat whatever is edible to satisfy your hunger, including vegetation and wild animals, large and small.”
"When one day, the wisdom seed changed during the days of eating hair and drinking blood, his thinking gained a further understanding of the world, and he was no longer content with this life. He began to feel that there should be a better life. Although he himself did not understand what kind of life this was at this stage, the idea became stronger and stronger until this moment."
As Cao An spoke, a sudden thunder struck the forest trees, and fire appeared, along with beasts scorched by the fire.
For some reason, this sudden scene startled Huangfu Meng, who had already practiced to a high level and was in a rock-like state of mind. It was not because of the thunder, but because of the thoughts that Cao An was going to express next.
In the small picture, the wise species ate cooked food, and then controlled fire at an extremely fast speed. Soon, the life of the wise species changed dramatically, including slash-and-burn farming, animal husbandry, and city-states. Although everything was There is only 'him'.
In this small world, rain, disease, and natural disasters appear from time to time, as if there really is such a small world that is evolving.
"The intelligent species are not satisfied with the current life. They cannot explain all the disasters that occur in nature, at least for them, so they can only judge and classify the world based on their own ideas. , they feel that there should be a more powerful creature controlling all of this..."
As Cao An's words fell, the wisdom species in the small world began to kneel down and worship, gradually perfecting it, with rituals, sacrifices, offerings, and everything complete.
"So there are gods in this world..."
"Wisdom is planted in this world. They get warmth and produce their own food. They have the capital to travel far. They want to see what the world is like. They fantasize about this world that they have not yet understood. There should be something in the corner, so they took the first step and walked out."
Cao An moved his fingers together, and the world the size of a fingernail began to change. It was getting bigger, with higher mountains, bigger mountains, bigger rivers, wider lakes, and land without water at all.
Huangfu Meng took a deep breath and looked at the world outside that had completely plunged into darkness. Inside the small hall, the evergreen lamp had already been on, illuminating the place.
"So, what you are saying is that it is not that the world exists and humans are gradually exploring it, but that the world exists because of people. The size of the world is determined by people's knowledge? Wherever they see, they will Derive something new?”
Cao An shook his head, "It's not just humans. I told you, it's a species of intelligence. It's not just humans here."
Huangfu Meng stretched out his hand, "Stop, we can't continue."
Cao An's realm was not high enough to sense it, but Huangfu Meng discovered that there was a faint terror between heaven and earth. He began to notice this side. This is no longer a theory, lu
To put it bluntly, in order to reflect all this more truly, Cao An also used the power of heaven and earth to demonstrate all this, so much so that it alarmed some beings.
When Cao An heard this, he opened his fingers and withdrew his power, and all the illusions between the two people disappeared.
He clapped his hands and smiled, "I once thought about something. If someone has the intelligence to control the whole world, after a certain moment, he can completely stop all thoughts. When the stop time is long enough, he will Or will this world cease to exist in just a moment?"
Some things, with just a little guidance, are enough to make people think of more things and make their thoughts go further. Although Cao An only deduced a small part of it, it was enough for Huangfu Meng to understand more and think more. , think further.
She used to think that her dream world was already a very taboo thing, but compared to Cao An's thoughts and what he just said he had thought about, she suddenly felt that the dream world was just like that. Compared to Cao An can't be called dangerous or taboo at all. The person in front of him is the real taboo, right?
She desperately wanted to change the topic, "Pindao, there are some faint traces of time in your practice. Is Fellow Taoist Cao's Yin Shen planning to use time as the true meaning of the field?"
"Time?" After hearing Huangfu Meng's words, Cao An subconsciously thought of her Sword Twenty-Three, and she probably found clues from it.
"Not the time!"
"Not the time?"
Cao An nodded, "It is indeed not time, but if you define it in terms of time, it is not impossible."
"how do I say this?"
"What does Fellow Daoist Huangfu think time is? Or let's change the question. Does Fellow Daoist Huangfu think time really exists?" Huangfu Meng brought the topic to time, but Cao An happened to have a good talk. Huangfu Meng was a A good communication partner. Her strength and practice are enough to support all conversations with Cao An.
This allows Cao An to express his true thoughts without any scruples. Of course, there is also the reason why the two of them have similar mental states. Otherwise, Cao An is not the type to talk to others when he meets them. He has never met anyone with a higher level of cultivation. It’s not that there are no people.
"Do you think time does not exist?" Huangfu Meng's voice rose slightly. Invisibly, a barrier was placed above the entire small hall by Huangfu Meng at some point.
"In my opinion, in the real world, there is no such thing as time. It is just introduced by the intelligent species to facilitate its own unit. Can the unit understand it? It is like a pound and a mile. Time , we need to understand from its essence, what is its essence? Here is a very clear and easy to understand phenomenon. The time we can see is the change of seasons, the vicissitudes of the sea, and to a lesser extent, the buds of trees and grass. growth."
Cao An did not pause and continued: "But the so-called growth of trees and grass buds, if you look at it at a smaller scale, is the interaction between some subtle things that are difficult to reach with our naked eyes. How should we understand the interaction?"
"I understand!"
Cao An was stunned for a moment, "Well, that's good. So, what I understand as time is the interaction between all things. For example, what we see is the decay of mountains and rocks, but its essence is rain, dew, The final result formed after the interaction of sunlight, soil and wind with it is only what we can see. Going down to the details, it is the interaction between smaller things that are difficult to reach with the naked eye."
"Amazing and amazing!!"
A gentle smile appeared on Cao An's lips, "Understanding its essence, when we have the ability to grasp its role, we can have the so-called ability to control time. Time acceleration is nothing more than speeding up a certain area or a certain matter. It's just the interaction that happens on the body, and time stagnation is nothing more than delaying the occurrence of this interaction indefinitely, or even directly stagnating it."
Hearing this, Huangfu Meng smiled for the second time, but this time his smile was a little cunning.
"People with great supernatural powers can cross the long river of time and go back to the past. I want to know, how does fellow Taoist Cao explain all this?"
There was no surprise or anything else on Cao An's face as she expected, and he remained calm, "I have my own reasons for this, but I can't explain this reason to fellow Taoist Huangfu, because you can't understand the meaning. Say. It’s useless.”
Huangfu Meng looked at Cao An. She wanted to see the clues on Cao An's face, but she found that what Cao An said seemed to be true.
"It's still early, why don't we chat?"
Without waiting for Cao An to nod, he just suddenly felt a little lonely, stood up and walked to the door, "If you want to discuss it, you can explain it clearly, but I have no intention of it today. My explanation of the long river of time has only one word, dimension!! Everything in the world is just a worm beneath it."
"Fellow Taoist Huangfu, let's stay here for today."
Huangfu Meng stood up and waved his hand to close the barrier, "That's it. Fellow Taoist Cao will rest in the temple today. I will give you a gift tomorrow."
