Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

The word ”similar”, like a boulder, threw into the pond of Li Yaozhen's soul, lifted a circle of strong ripples, which could not be quenched for a long time.

“What are we, exactly? ”

Li Yao mumbled in the lightest voice.

“The problem with mistakes is that we are Earthlings, and it is clear that from the outset, you knew that you were just deliberately ignoring and reluctant to face the meaning behind the word 'Earthlings’. ”

The blood-hearted demon said, "The right question should be -- what exactly are the Earthlings? ”

“That...”

Li Yao was silent for a long time. Instead of calming down, the ripples in the depths of the divine soul became stronger and more disturbed. "I am a man of the earth, who is a man of the earth? ”

“Perhaps the earthlings are not human beings at all, at least not the 40,000's of the real world, the intelligent life of the Pankorean universe, which calls itself ‘man', defined as' man ’. ”

The voice of the blood-hearted demon contains several hints of enlightenment, but also a few playful and ruthless flavors, "Remember after Professor Mo Xuan's fall, we went to explore the 'spirit realm' he had created, trying to find there two failed experiments, incompletely morphologic ‘superbodies’?

“At that time, many feared that, while Professor Mo Xuan was dead and another Lingnet Tenjin ‘Lu Light Dust’ had been severely injured, and the Kung Wang had fled to the depths of the universe, new strong artificial intelligence, crystal brain life, super intelligence and other things could still be born.

“Nonetheless, the conclusions of the comprehensive research and analysis of all the Federation's crystalline brains and spiritual nets are consistent with Professor Mo Xuan's own research over the centuries - at the level of the Federation's crystalline brains and spiritual nets at the time, it will never be possible to produce real ‘strong artificial intelligence' in the next millennium, which is not self-indulgent, but takes time for evolution.

“Unless, I recall, there was a young researcher in the middle of novelty who came up with an idea, unless there was some sort of 'cosmic virus' from a higher dimension that could go into the crystal brain and spiritual web of the Federation and ‘dotted' the existence of some chaotic indivisibility hidden deep in a vast database, it would be possible to accelerate evolution and promote the birth of true artificial intelligence.

“And the end result, yes.

“Our brain scanning data, devoured by Super Spirit Nos. 17 and 18, accelerated their evolution and merged with the huge database of the Game of Civilizations, culminating in a new generation of life with an independent consciousness," Xiaoming "and" Wen ", two incredible artificial intelligences.

“So, what exactly are we, the Earthlings, and isn't the answer obvious? ”

Li Yao continued to remain silent, and the spiritual ripples became more and more violent and disruptive in silence.

And the vision of the bloody demon slowly rises from the center of his spiritual ripple, looking at him like a man in a mirror.

“Actually, you knew that already, didn't you? ”

The blood-hearted demon smiled, “After all, we were just talking to ourselves, strictly speaking, forcing ourselves to face those things, far beyond common sense, shocking ourselves, completely destroying all three perspectives, yes, we are Earthlings, and Earthlings are some kind of high-dimensional form of cosmic virus, essentially like Professor Mo Xuan's 'Spirit’, 'Information Life' such as Little Civilizations and Little Civilizations, and ‘Self-Learning and Evolutionary Strong Artificial Intelligence' such as Boxer.

“That's why we can help Professor Mo Xuan upgrade from a phantom to a star spirit, guide Xiaoming and Wen to create a true consciousness, and still maintain his core logic after the boxing champion's body - the Great Iron City - was bombed by artillery fire from Manju Shahua, even unwrapping the seal wrapped around its core logic, so that its strength can surge rapidly, from a common killing machine in Sintulus Park to control the entire fleet, and even dozens of invincible smart weapons in the future!

“No, it was not we who absorbed Professor Mo Xuan's inheritance into his form, but from the beginning Professor Mo Xuan was influenced by us and transformed into our original form, and our higher level cosmic virus has been trapped in the weak bodies of these so-called ‘humans' of the 40,000's.

“While our strength is still low, it may be a form of protection, perhaps to conceal our presence in front of the most dangerous enemies, or perhaps to prevent our virus from being wiped out by some kind of protection mechanism in the Pangu universe.

“But cultivating to the peak of the chemical god, beginning to strike us in the divine realm, is no longer the body that can bear - even if it is the heavenly robbery body, the strongest body in the Pangu universe, can no longer bear the spirit that we are gradually exposing.

“And just as our spirits were ‘waiting to be released, breathing out', they suffered the fiercest attack, and in thousands of degrees of ion flames that lasted for an hour, they were finally ‘beaten back to their original form', exposing themselves.

“That's what I assume has happened in the last ten and a half days.

Li Yao could not help but raise his hand consisting of light gold data and symbols.

The blood-hearted demon also raised its hand, which consisted of red data and symbols. The two fingers touched each other gently, like a person touching the mirror in front of them, but poked a circle in the mirror and the illusion also really waved, stirring the illusion in the mirror more confused.

Li Yao can't tell whether he is outside the mirror or in the mirror.

“We, the Earthlings, like Ming and Wen, are all 'information life’? ”

He looked at the dancing digital butterflies in the “mirror" and muttered to himself.

“Since children are information life, and fathers are information life, of course, what's the problem? ”

Blood Heart Demon, “But I don't like the name" information life, "because it's so inaccurate. All life in the universe, whether carbon-based or silicon-based, is a node in the information flood, and the most important basic unit of carbon-based life —— deoxyribonucleic acid -- is also a biological carrier that's been carefully designed to store a lot of information. At the macro level, when the three-dimensional universe was just born, there was only a lot of hydrogen and helium and an infinite amount of energy, and then the stars and spirits that lived between the stars and oceans, whether they were humans, livestock, demons or cold machines, were made up of the same substance. So, what's the difference between the human being the Spirit of all things, and the ‘artificial intelligence, super,' they were afraid of?

“We're not entirely indigenous creatures of the Pankorean universe, but a completely different form of life —— Earthlings, you already know that, so, even if we understand the fact that Earthlings are the Gao Dynasty virus, what's the impact on your existence, why do you seem so upset and unacceptable? ”

“I, I don't know. ”

Li Yao was incredible, "But I think my reaction is that of a normal person, right? Whatever you go to the bustling streets, just ask someone, 'Hey, man, tell you a big secret, you're not human, you're an alien virus, no surprise, no surprise’, guess what they'll do? Instead, it's you, calm down too much, don't you have a little doubt and shake, just so... feel comfortable and accept it naturally? ”

“Why not? ”

The blood-hearted demon faintly said, “Well, I admit, you have been the character of Li Yao since the beginning, representing Li Yao's ‘ben me' and ‘self’. You have no doubt about your existence. You know very well that you are ‘vulture Li Yao’, that is a human being. You occasionally ignore the subtle differences between Earthlings and ‘Pangu aliens’ and live naturally like this.

“You never doubted your existence, you don't need to think about the meaning of life and who you really are. Although you often hang the words' who I am 'in your mouth, even if you can't find an answer, you don't care. After all, you are just the sum of the original desires and social relationships of' vulture Li Yao ’, you know that you are Li Yao, the supreme of the three worlds, Ding Bell's husband, the mastermind behind the scenes of Yiushi Group... this is enough to answer the question' who I am ’.

“But for me this is not enough, far from enough.

“I am not only Li Yao's subordinate personality, but also some kind of 'superpersonality’, Li Yao's ‘super me'. Since I woke up, thinking about my existence has become as necessary as breathing air.

“Who am I, an ancient bacterium that came from hundreds of billions of years ago and hundreds of millions of light-years away - the Blood Tattoo Clan, or another that absorbs a lot of the memory and power of the Blood Tattoo Clan, but is very different?

“Am I Li Yao's Heart Demon, or is Li Yao the one who is my Heart Demon, and devours the Blood Tattoo Clan, producing the Blood Heart Demon Li Yao, or is it not 100% Li Yao? Is it also possible that I was unwittingly wrapped by the Heart Demon in the silencing of diving? In fact, I am the real Lee Yew, but after being eroded by the Blood Heart Demon, I mistakenly thought I was the Blood Heart Demon? How do I prove, how do I define my existence, human beings, bacteria, viruses, crystalline brains, bloodlines, angels, forest species, what kind of life form I am, or ‘which kind’?

“Look, here at me, the definition of life form has been pluralistic from the beginning, and I'm not the kind of narrow and stereotypical person you have to confine yourself to in the definition of 'human’. If I can accept that part of myself comes from the ancient bacterial life of the 'bloodline', then what's wrong with accepting that the other part of me is the Earthlings - the Gaudinian cosmic virus? ”
