Chapter 64 Swamp People - Taiyin

(The essence of man is the sum of all social relations)

Listening to the words of the cube man, Taiyin's face turned gloomy and he clenched his fists.

But even though the laws of the extremes were pervasive, and there was an infinite force between his fingers and palms that was enough to shatter a section of the starry sky, it could not cause any effect on the immortal body in his palms.

Instead, the bones of his own palm made a strange sound as if they were colliding with fairy gold.

The reason why he lost his composure was that he suddenly realized that he seemed to be a little different at this moment.

With a gloomy face, he looked inward.

Everything seemed to be swept away by dust.

From the near-death state after the collapse of his body and soul, to the recovery of his body and soul, the five secret realms in his body seemed so clear, and his blood was as pure as moonlight.

The reorganized soul is like a noble bright moon, rising far above the secret realm of Xiantai.

The entire Xiantai secret realm is like a bright mirror that has removed the shackles of cause and effect, reflecting the laws of the heavens and every thought in the soul.

He clearly felt the bloodthirsty killing intent and appetite he had just devoured from the flesh and blood of the five supreme beings, as well as the brief satisfaction and subsequent emptiness after devouring them, and the rage and confusion caused by the sudden approach of death...

All emotions and thoughts are clearly reflected in the soul, like rolling pearls.

He was aware of his emotions but not controlled by them.

Recalling the past, on the mirror-like immortal platform, all kinds of anger, greed, bloodthirstiness and negative emotions in the memories of the past years emerged.

There are also rare positive emotions such as happiness and joy.

A feeling of disharmony arises in my heart.

"Shouldn't..."

These negative emotions shouldn't be so intense, and these positive emotions shouldn't be so rare.

It was as if a mysterious existence had planted the seeds of greed, murder and rage in the deepest part of his soul.

It is like a vine with mysterious vitality, deeply rooted in every corner of the soul, inducing negative emotions while suppressing all positive emotions.

However, at this moment, all those irrational negative emotions had been cut off at the root and were slowly fading away bit by bit.

It seems like I used to be just a puppet, a puppet controlled by some force, whose emotions were manipulated like a toy, to kill and destroy.

After a deep breath, Taiyin's eyes gradually regained clarity and calmness.

"It saved me?"

"Why did you save me?"

His anger had gradually subsided, leaving only a hint of doubt. Taiyin asked indifferently, "So?"

"If, as you say, I'm not the Taiyin you know, but the Dark Evolver you mentioned, then why did you trick me into drinking that milk so that I would no longer be affected by the black energy?"

"What are you going to do now?"

A voice with some sadness rang out: "I'm really sorry. I've only known my friend for a few days, and suddenly I realized that he might be dead. This makes me very sad."

"I want to find a way to kill you and avenge him."

"But I'm also confused. If you really are the brand new dark spirit that was bred in his body after being corroded by the black energy that tracked through time, does that count as you killing him?"

"Or, new Taiyin, are you also an innocent person, just a puppet created by the black energy, a victim whose emotions are involuntary?"

"Is Taiyin the same as 'Taiyin'?"

"Should I still consider you Taiyin?"

When it realizes that there is no thinking process within itself, it no longer needs to give the illusion of needing to think.

No matter how long it takes, as long as it is a question that Fang Zheng as a human being can slowly think about, it can now give an answer immediately.

It narrated the answer to Taiyin. Combined with what Taiyin had said to Fangzheng in the Jiang family secret realm, this was clear.

Time is like a long river with branches, and we can get a glimpse of the future through divination.

And the strange black air that should exist in the future can invade the peeper along time.

Combining Taiyin's performance with Taiyin's description of the various manifestations of the so-called Dark Evolvers, we can also know that -

The erosion of black gas should be a gradual process. The stronger the target, the slower the speed.

However, what 'Taiyin' showed was the birth of the Dark Spirit.

This means that the black energy did not erode it after the Taiyin divination, but most likely invaded through time and went to a more distant past, eroding its weak past.

In this way, it can be used as a kind of beacon to guide the invasion of darkness.

It is also taken into consideration that Taiyin's interference with time will bring about a huge backlash from divine punishment.

From this we can also know that, with high probability, in order to weaken the backlash of the long river of time as much as possible, the black air that erodes Taiyin's past along the connection of time should maintain the similarity of Taiyin's life trajectory with Taiyin as much as possible before reaching the current time node.

Only when it is closer to the current node will it appear more eroded.

So, if two people have the same appearance and almost the same life trajectory, should their memories and personalities be extremely similar?
The dark soul conceived by the black energy, if it has the same experience as the original body, has almost the same memories and a similar personality, but is more irritable, bloodthirsty and greedy.

So, if the negative effects of the Dark Spirit's black energy were removed, so that it was no longer irritable, bloodthirsty and greedy, how much difference would there be between it and the original body?
Should two beings with almost no difference in appearance, memory, or personality be considered different individuals?

Fang Zheng, should you continue to be friendly with the Dark Spirit Taiyin?
"That's it?" After hearing Fang Zheng's narration, Taiyin felt a sense of absurdity, which made him laugh.

"If what you said is true, in just a few days, you have already formed a friendship with that Taiyin?"

"Ha!" He covered his face and laughed.

"What a ridiculous and childish guy!"

"How can you be sure that even if the so-called real Taiyin really exists, he is not thinking of using your ability and deceiving you with words like me?"

"If I am really the dark spirit conceived by the black energy, even if the so-called milk you gave me has removed the influence of darkness on my spirit, I still have almost the same memories as Taiyin, and my personality is extremely similar."

"But I am a different being after all. Facing someone like me, you still have pity for me?"

"Hahahahaha!"

The wanton laughter resounded through the void, creating cracks in this corrupted space and time.

Despite his laughter, the cube man remained unmoved, and spoke calmly once again: (It is enough that a human named 'Founder' would think so.)
(You must first understand that I have no need of you)
(It is you now, it is Taiyin in the past, you have a need for me)
(Dark Evolvers will devour each other and be manipulated by those behind the scenes to become puppets. Now that you have been freed from their influence, will you still be considered a member of the same group as other Dark Evolvers?)

(Even if you are considered to be of the same kind, the Dark Evolvers will not stop devouring you just because you are of the same kind. Rather, according to Taiyin, in that future tributary, devouring one's own kind is the fastest way for the Dark Evolvers to become stronger.)
(If the future that Taiyin saw was coming true, the entire universe of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, within the Sea of ​​Boundaries, would already be enveloped in darkness.)

(So, when darkness officially invades soon and threatens to erode the entire nine heavens and ten earths, can you still remain unscathed?)
"So, you are threatening me?" Taiyin stopped his wanton smile, and stared at the square figure in his hand with cold eyes, with a strong murderous intent overflowing.

The bland and empty words continued: (You may take my words as a threat)
"Ah"

He chuckled softly, his murderous intent dissipating as he smiled playfully. "Indeed, if the information is true, I want to continue living, and I don't want to become a puppet manipulated by others. No matter what, I must fight against the darkness."

"However, even if I need to fight against darkness, it doesn't mean that I need to be like the Taiyin you described, protecting all living beings in the nine heavens and ten earths."

Feeling the clear, mirror-like spirit, Taiyin chuckled softly, "Indeed, I am different now. I am no longer like the me in my memory, my mind affected by the unknown."

"But this doesn't mean that I have become like the Taiyin you remember, willing to fight bloody battles for all living beings."

"His way is not my way!"

"Then, how do you intend to threaten me and make me fight to the death to protect the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?"

"Are you trying to threaten me and stop me from continuing to provide you with your unlimited resources?"

The so-called swamp man paradox: If a slime devours a person and mimics that person, it will perfectly inherit all of their memories and personality, and no one will be able to detect its behavior.

So, in sociology, can this slime still be regarded as the original person?
