I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 637: Within Limits

Mo Ling was very familiar with everything that happened next. He had experienced it more than once in other perceptions.

The depths of Tianjin Mountain slowly turned into a sea of ​​blood. The bloody fog slowly spread as the predatory birds hunted, occupying the entire valley.

Even the clouds on the mountains were dyed blood red. Under the illumination of the red light, the vines in the clouds looked even more bizarre.

"Why did the vine create so many creatures?" Mo Ling couldn't help but ask.

It seemed that it didn't get any benefits and was still hiding timidly in the clouds.

When the blood mist filled the air, it hung down to the ground and stroked the earth with its thin roots, as if it was licking Tianjin Mountain. At other times, it stayed hidden inside the clouds, and no one knew what it was doing.

And the creatures it created have long been thriving and multiplying in Tianjin Mountain, becoming a part of the ecosystem.

The predatory birds completely changed the ecology of Tianjin Mountain and became the source of the war.

"It? I don't know..."

"It just droops sometimes and shrinks sometimes, and I can't see it or understand it."

Mo Ling was surprised by Bubble Eyeball's answer.

Even if you can see the past, can't you see the purpose of the vines?
"Is it to start a war?" Mo Ling asked. He guessed that maybe the vine could gain something from the war.

"Maybe." Bubble Eyeball's answer was still full of uncertainty.

It stared at the rampaging birds of prey, its gaze moving closer and closer until it finally landed on the pink feathers.

The whole body of the bird of prey is pink, its feathers are pink, its beak is pink, its claws are pink, and even its eyes are pink...

The huge bird's beak was slightly open, and some pink saliva flowed out from the gap on the edge. It looked disgusting and hideous, but the line of sight of the bubble eyeball continued to go deeper and deeper, falling into the dark giant mouth.

"These birds don't actually need so much food." Eyeball said suddenly.

"What do you mean?"

"They hunt just to get a taste of different flavors... They tear their prey into pieces to get a taste of its bones, and they devour their companions to get a taste of their companions. All of their hunting behaviors are just for tasting."

His eyes fell on the pink bird of prey, telling Mo Ling a shocking fact.

"They hunt other creatures not for survival or reproduction, but simply to taste the flavor of those creatures... Their food requirements are actually very low, and they cannot digest all the food they eat. They will even excrete the flesh and blood intact."

"They hunt large prey simply because the taste of those prey is more complex... the flesh and blood have one taste, the bones have another taste, and the acid in the stomach has another taste. Unlike small prey, the tastes are all mixed together."

"Eating is simply to taste and feel this world. They are purer than any other creatures, so pure that they don't even seem like living creatures."

The bubble eyeball stared at the ferocious bird of prey and spoke to Mo Ling.

Mo Ling was very surprised, he never thought that those ferocious predatory birds could get a "pure" evaluation from the Bubble Eyeball.

"Did you see all this?"

"Yes."

"What else did you see?" Mo Ling continued to ask, trying to get other information from the bubble eyeball.

“I see the limitations.”

"Limitations?"

"Yes, the limitation of perception..." The field of vision of the bubble eyeball suddenly shrank, and it was taken back from the raptor bird and returned to the sky above Tianjin Mountain. Its gaze swept across the ups and downs of the trees, fell on the finger-like finger insects, and then drilled into the tree hole, staring at the ear flies that looked like ears...

The sight moved rapidly, and the sound of the eyeballs continued to come:

"If you touch the world clumsily, you will perish in darkness."

"If you simply listen to the world, you will get lost in the vibrations." "If you hide in the smell, you will be trapped in the environment and unable to break free."

"Just to taste the flavor, you will become a puppet of desire..."

"Perception has its limitations. No matter what kind of perception it is, the world we perceive is partial, local, and fragmented... Those creatures cannot escape this fate. Their tragedy stems from their weakness and the limitations of their perception. I see this limitation, but I don't see a way out."

“Even though I understand everything, I am no different from them…”

There seemed to be a hint of helplessness in the words of the bubble eyeball. It clearly saw everything, but it could not change anything.

"What do you want to tell me?" Mo Ling asked.

Bubble Eyeball said so many confusing words, as if it wanted to convey some kind of message.

The eyeball did not answer, but silently pulled the ends of flesh and blood out of Mo Ling's body. As those flesh and blood threads returned to the eyeball, Mo Ling's vision returned to normal.

The bubble eyeball was still floating in front of him, and the dark eye spot was fixed on Mo Ling, as if it could see through all the molecules in his body. However, the trembling black spot seemed a little confused, and a trace of turbidity rose in the transparent bubble, and disappeared in the blink of an eye...

"When your eyes fly in the sky, you think you can see everything, but light doesn't turn, and what you see is not the whole picture..."

"Outsiders have detached memories and think they are outside the world, but their perceptions are still within the world. What they touch, hear, smell, see, and realize are not the way out..."

"Weak perception will lead to weakness, and transcendent perception will lead to transcendence. You have actually already felt those things that do not exist, and that is the real way out."

"The intangible, vibrationless, never-collapsed, back side of light..."

While saying these confusing words, the bubble eyeball drilled into Mo Ling's body again, constantly searching for something inside, but could not find it.

"You have to find it yourself, I can't find it." It muttered somewhat frustratedly, its black eye spots drooping and the bubbles becoming somewhat wilted.

However, after listening to these strange words from Bubble Eyeball, Mo Ling's thoughts seemed to be suddenly opened up. He followed those strange words and associated them with everything he had experienced in Tianjin Mountain.

"Untouchable..."

Mo Ling recalled the huge cube-shaped hole in the sea of ​​sand that he could not touch but could vaguely feel.

"No vibration..."

He remembered the vibrations that were completely wiped out when he turned into an earfly and fought the raptor in the cave.

"Never collapsed..."

This refers to his current body, a mass of uncollapsed odor molecules, which is also something that should not exist.

and also……

"The back side of the light."

Where is the other side of light?

How can light have a back side?

Mo Ling's thoughts were stuck on this strange word. He couldn't understand what the "back side of the light" meant.

He kept imagining this nonexistent concept, trying to associate this strange word with familiar experiences.

But contrary to expectations, abstract words cannot form a concrete picture.

"How can one imagine it if one has never felt it?"

Just like that, Mo Ling was stuck in the limitations of his perception, unable to move...
