Wandao long distance

Chapter 996: Second Rank Battle

Mu Yu began to analyze Li Qi's actions.

Does Li Qi really want to destroy the devil? It seems a little strange. What he is doing now actually has nothing to do with the devil. For him, a third-grade rank, the Dream City is not a big problem.

All the dream cities were razed to the ground. As long as no one interfered, a third-grade magician could easily rebuild them all.

  So what is the significance of the action against the Dreaming City?

No, it is meaningful, but not to the evil ways, but to those sentient beings who are persecuted by the evil ways.

So, looking from this perspective, Li Qi’s goal is not to fight against the devil, but to protect all living beings?

Mu Yu felt uneasy.

Qidian's slogan has always been 'Fight against the devil'.

However, Mu Yu knew that viewing the enemy as an unforgivable evil demon was one of the most classic reasons for starting a war. As long as it was explained that the enemies believed in wrong ideas, were extremely evil and stubborn and must be eradicated, then the war would become just.

First, if the war is really justified and justified, and is launched to spread "good ideas", then why not attack the ideas? In this way, we can at least roughly estimate whether the war is really more beneficial than harmful.

However, Li Qi did not do so, because in Qidian's propaganda, it had long been determined that those enemies were all evil and deserved to die, and any other idea would be tantamount to betrayal to us.

  If a war is truly necessary and noble, do we still need to use such lies to unite the members of Qidian against a common enemy?

Must each of us, like those tacit insiders, endure the torture of lies just to make others understand what we do?

If these lies are the only things that can make war beneficial and without any harm, then perhaps there is some meaning in us enduring such torture.

The enemy's image is vilified, and the stupidity of their customs and personalities is fully exposed, portraying them as evil beings. In this way, the soldiers will hate the enemy and regard the opponent as something different.

This reminded Mu Yu of a sentence:

The idea of ​​war as a struggle against evil is a very appealing one. The thought of making brave sacrifices, even at the ultimate cost of one's life, to defeat evil seems sacred.

Unconsciously, wars have become more deadly and more horrific, while the excuses for war have become more benevolent and selfless.

Although the damage caused by war is incalculable, propaganda shows that war is now waged entirely out of kindness, love, and generosity, and we are fighting entirely for the benefit of the world.

Most of what we think of as justice only exists in our consciousness, or in the so-called imagination, while those so-called amateur teams are the real world, which is beautified and internalized by imagination, words, and consciousness. In this way, people think that is reality, not because the reality is too bad, but because the imagination is too simple and divorced from reality.

After Mu Yu realized this, he immediately started to contact Li Qi.

He wanted to question Li Qi in person.

What was going on in Qidian? Were they all fooled by this second-rank official?

However, these current thoughts are most likely caused by evil thoughts, so we must be on guard against this.

Therefore, Mu Yu made a decisive choice. He first sealed his own cultivation to prevent himself from rioting and causing problems, and then activated the magic weapon and summoned Li Qi.

The moment he summoned Li Qi——

On Li Qi's side, there was a light chuckle.

really.

  The devil couldn't help it, which devil was it?

Li Qi's power freezes time and space, and then traces the source.

  This feeling is... karma demon?

Karma demons can create obstacles.

This demon can make people commit all kinds of karma. The so-called "karma" is actually "feedback".

It's like a reaction force.

If you push someone, then in fact, this person also pushes you, and you will experience almost the same reaction force. This is called "karma", which is divided into three types: physical karma, verbal karma, and mental karma.

Physical karma is the karma created by physical actions, verbal karma is the karma created by verbal actions, and mental karma is the karma created by thoughts.

This reaction force is widely present in all things and will eventually turn into "retribution", which is the so-called "karma".

Taoism and Buddhism both support the existence of karma, while witchcraft and humanity also acknowledge the existence of a natural phenomenon of "reward."

In Li Qi's cognition, karma does exist. However, the existence of karma is neither a punishment nor a reward, it is just a law of nature.

The actions of all living beings will inevitably produce corresponding "karma" both at the time and afterwards.

Karma is like a shadow, following the person who does this thing closely and exerting corresponding force on the person at all times.

It is like planting a tree. You planted a tree ten years ago, and then the tree grew up. This is karma.

For example, if you study hard and obtain a high level of education, this is also "karma."

Your act of studying hard is creating karma.

Your academic qualifications and your knowledge are the 'karma'.

This kind of karma has nothing to do with good or bad. Although some people would say things like "good karma and bad karma", actually there is no good or bad karma. You may be deliberately targeted by bandits because of your high education and knowledge, or you may get a better job because of it. These are all part of the rewards.

It is even possible that because you have a high level of education, you look down on a simple girl on the street and choose a grown-up girl. In the end, you lose the simple girl and are kicked away by the grown-up girl, missing out on a lifetime of happiness.

All of these are the result of karma, and there is no good or bad distinction between them.

The karma demon is good at manipulating this kind of "karma" and directing all the "karma" to karma that you don't like, are unwilling to, and cannot accept.

The same thing can trigger many kinds of karmic consequences, some people like them and some people don’t.

They all join the army, some want to survive and return home, some want to die gloriously on the battlefield, both of these karmas exist.

What the Karma Demon does is to make those who hope to die on the battlefield return home disabled and suffer, and to make those who hope to survive be directly blown to death.

Always direct the "karma" to the direction that sentient beings are most unwilling and dislike, and then absorb their "self-inflicted consequences", or "self-results".

  Who should be blamed in the end?

I can only blame myself, after all, all the problems are caused by myself.

Why do I study? Why do I join the army? Why do I do good or bad things? No one forced me. Everything was my own choice...

In the end, he blamed himself, felt sorry for himself, and became obsessed with evil thoughts, becoming food for the demon of karma.

"Found you." Li Qi grabbed Karma itself.

Using 'karma', the Karma Demon has been secretly manipulating something, and the flaw revealed by Li Qi was caught by the other party.

Fortunately, Li Qi was pretending.

"Really?" responded the demon.

Then, wind, clouds, thunder and rain appeared wherever they were, and wheat, millet, beans and barley grew wherever they were planted, with the utmost solemnity and respect.

They spread strange, lewd and absurd stories, begged for mercy from the Buddha and were served by ghosts and goblins. They were as big as dragons and as small as eels. They controlled floods and droughts and owned the power of abundance and poverty, and regarded the country as useless.

This is Li Qi’s karma.

This is the karma of witches and sorcerers.

Karmic feedback, all the things Li Qi had done in his past history, all emerged at once.

The steps of the altar were in ruins, and there were no walls on the sides. The shabby house had only three rooms. The sacrifice was overgrown with weeds and the burning was just over.

The earth's energy did not respond, and the pagodas were awakened. In the temples and mountains, many witches and shamans were seen running and bowing, chanting incantations, but the heaven and earth were indifferent. The spirits surrounded him, but they were unwilling to communicate with Li Qi anymore. The world was resisting Li Qi.

This was because Li Qi had once been a shaman who extracted the power of heaven and earth as a result of his karma.

It shouldn't have been like this, because although Li Qi did some things that damaged Dayuan, he also did a lot to make up for Dayuan. Normally, he wouldn't have ended up being hated by gods and ghosts like this.

But... the karma demon caused all the karma to surge up together, and the unconscious and spiritual spirits of the source of heaven and earth were swept up by it and expressed resistance to Li Qi.

This is the bad thing about the spirit of heaven and earth: they are ignorant and unconscious but have spirits and are easily manipulated by others.

However, correspondingly, it is precisely because of this that shamans can easily communicate with them through sacrifices. If they are stubborn and refuse to respond, it will be difficult for the priests to communicate with them.

However, this trick is of no use to Li Qi.

Li Qi is more than just a wizard.

His inner world unfolded.

His inner world has changed now. It is no longer a perfect creation. On the contrary, it is full of leaks.

It was so fragmented that if you looked closely, you would see that there wasn't even a unified soul or consciousness. Various pursuits and different things were lurking in the terrifying and huge body of the Second Grade.

Experiencing all kinds of conflicts, enduring all kinds of divisions and pain.

There is no going back, neither to the jackal nor to the child. Everything was not created in its purest form; everything, even the simplest things, once created, is its own master.

There is no creator; everything is its own master.

This is Li Qi’s attitude towards all living beings and all things.

It is a product of spiritual demands, a distant, fascinating and frightening possibility.

To accomplish all this, one must endure all the pain and try different kinds of death.

Desperate self-love, struggling to experience it all.

Only by facing death with equanimity, being able to be reborn and transform oneself can one reach the immortal state we have today.

The very thin universe has become a cold universe that will put more and more worlds, even the whole world, into its painfully enlarged soul, and then it will end.

In this way, Li Qi has the ability to resist karma, and the so-called "rejection of Li Qi" has become nonsense.

Because Li Qi swallowed up the spirits of heaven and earth and made them a part of himself, there is no such thing as "resistance". Li Qi is a god and a star official, and he has such ability.

"Is that so?" The Karma Demon seemed to be talking to himself, and karma continued to brew.

At this time, Li Qi also launched his back-up plan.

Open the hall and unfold it.

A grand sacrifice was officially completed under Li Qi's control.

The super-grand ceremony that lasted for hundreds of millions of years, involving an observable universe at an inaccessible cardinality level and involving an unknown number of people, and hosted by multiple second-grade masters, began to exert its power at this moment.

However...in response, the Karma Demon also made his own response.

wrong……

  It was not the Karma Demon who responded, but the Demonic Path that responded!

The dream cities that had been eradicated long ago began to emerge.

Where does it emerge?

In the 'heart'.

Inside the Qi Palace, everyone still remembered the existence of the City of Dreams.

That's enough.

Because... they have 'inner demons'.

Another second-grade demon, the inner demon, appeared.

Buddha is born from the mind, and so is the devil.

As long as you cannot control your inner self and put yourself in the shackles of your inner demon, you will be used by your inner demon and then "what you wish for will come true".

That’s right, this is the power of the inner demon, imagination is reality.

The City of Dreams has never disappeared from the hearts of everyone in Qidian, so the inner demon can take the City of Dreams out of their hearts again.

Then, Qidian collapsed.

Yes, Qi Dian is a weapon, and Mo Dao knew it from the beginning, just as Li Qi knew that Mo Dao had a backup plan.

Everyone knows that there is a second hand, but they are not sure which one is the second hand, and they don’t know who has more cards.

After the inner demon took action, Qi Palace began to fall into chaos.

The people in Qidian discovered...

Everything they had destroyed, their past enemies, their feared opponents, those long-dead demons, the enemies they had fought for their entire lives, the enemies they had outdone themselves with, all resurrected at this moment.

This is not even a backtracking, so that the third and second ranks on Li Qi's side are unable to launch an effective counterattack.

This is the 'inner demon', and now, everyone in Qidian will have to face their own inner demon, so that it cannot be effective in the grand ceremony, and cannot provide enough support for Li Qi in the battle of the second rank.

The magic weapon of Qidian stopped working.

But as mentioned before...

Li Qi has more than one Qi Palace.

  At this moment, he opened the second one!

Although it's not called Qidian, its effectiveness is almost the same. However, this one has not experienced the war to destroy demons, nor has it fought in the City of Dreams.

The appearance of this second Qi Palace successfully allowed Li Qi's power to overwhelm the Karma Demon!

Then, the third second-grade demon appeared.

The good knowledge demon who was once caught by Li Qi.

The Good Knowledge Demon appeared, and Li Qi's second Qi Palace, its components, all had "inspiration" against the demonic path in their minds.

  Maybe... by doing this, we can defeat the devil?

Perhaps, as long as I think this way, I can suppress the evil thoughts in my heart.

One by one, they all began their own 'epiphany'. Facing the war in front of them, they all had good ideas and clever plans.

The good knowledge demon has quietly sneaked into their hearts.

The second-rank soldiers finally started fighting.
