Into the Immortal Cultivation - Chapter 2187

[Chapter 200]

“Your Majesty, then, what is the past in your eyes? What can be changed and what can’t be changed?”

Wang Qi noticed a very crucial point.

“Past and future come together” has two very clear iron rules.

1. The past is not unique, the future is not unique, and the present is not unique.

2. The ability of foreknowledge cannot interfere “before the moment of enlightenment”.

In fact, there is a huge contradiction between these two things.

That is… the matter of “Proving the Way” itself.

If the past can be changed, then the event of “Proving the Way” is itself a “past” and a “future” of the more distant past.

Knowers of the distant past can intervene in this matter by choosing the future. And the present and even the future knower can intervene in this matter by choosing the past.

It makes no sense to say that “this individual is destined to preach at this point in time anyway”.

This is a bit too deterministic.

Even if the world line ends, there will always be fluctuations at the specific time point, right?

Chaos theory shows that in the macroscopic world, it is difficult to have a definite development process for such non-linear things.

In other words, the event of “proving the Tao” itself can be disturbed.

It can be delayed and, of course, brought forward.

Even if a former seer himself cannot interfere with anything before the sermon, and cannot let the reverse-chronological consonance reach the era when he has no reverse-chronological logic gate, he can also use the hands of other former seers to do this.

As long as the other ex-witness is older than him.

In this universe, although the former knowers are very rare, they are not so rare that “there is only a small circle”, and there is not much conflict of interests between them, and there is nothing that cannot be conceded.

There is even a “predecessor who devotes his life to the ideals of others” who rescues the demon world.

In other words, if the two former knowers cooperated, they would surely be able to “prove the Tao in advance”.

If a group of fore-knowers help each other, they can even control all the history in a piece of cause and effect – of course, the length is only 200 million years at most.

Although he has become a former knower, he has the ability to “play chess”.

But the step from a pawn to a chess player cannot be predicted at all.

Could there really be a model of the many-subs universe similar to the “many-worlds interpretation”?

Here, there may be a big secret of quantum mechanics.

After listening to Wang Qi’s guess, the Dragon Emperor Huanshen shook his head: “This is indeed feasible, but it doesn’t make sense?”

Wang Qi was stunned: “Huh?”

“What’s the difference between a few days earlier and a few days later? ?” The Dragon Emperor was a little puzzled.

Wang Qi said: “But if the incident of my becoming a former knower has itself been modified by others, then I…”

“But your existence in the future can become a ’cause’, and there is no such thing as a ‘demonstration’. It doesn’t affect you becoming a former knower!” said the Dragon Emperor.

“However, the opportunity for me to create this thing has already been… Wait a minute, the logic of normal timing is indeed a bit insufficient.” Wang Qi waved his hand: “No, Your Majesty, I mean, the time of the preaching itself can be advanced or Delaying, doesn’t that prove that multiple pre-knowledgeers can go back in time, so that the time point of the preaching of one or several pre-knowledgeers can be advanced infinitely, even to the beginning of the universe?”

If this is the case, then the more If it is an ancient pre-knowledge, the more advantageous it must be – the ancient pre-knowledge can choose history to dominate the birth of the subsequent pre-knowledge.

But there is no evidence that this is true.

Because the co-owner of the Yuan clan must be older than the Dragon Emperor. But in fact, the Dragon Emperor slaughtered the masters of the Yuan clan.

If this is the case, then Wang Qi has to face another problem.

Future powerhouses will definitely think so, and they will definitely want to go to “now”.

And the powerhouses who belonged to the past and the future must deal with a lot of “powerhouses that don’t exist yet”.

But it turns out that there is no such thing.

Although there is a so-called “knowing by birth” in mythology, “the one who was born shouted that ‘heaven and the world are my own'”. But there is no practical example of “one who is born is one who is past and future”.

Otherwise, Wang Qi would at least have heard of it.

But if that’s not the case…

Then what about “the past is variable”?

Could it be that all pasts are changeable, and only the fact of “Proving the Way” is “destined”?

The Dragon Emperor shook his head: “No, that’s not what I meant. In fact, if you become a former knower, then the various causes and effects before you become a former knower will have no effect on you after you become a former knower. No matter what. Whatever you were like before, you have a backup in the ‘future’. Therefore, trying to influence the ‘individuals after the sermon’ by interfering with the ‘history before the sermon’ is futile.”

Wang Qi frowned: “Is it possible to influence a strong man whose past and future belong together, and make his personality change to a certain extent, so that the position change is theoretically feasible?”

If this is not feasible, then It can only explain one thing – the individual after the sermon will go to a doomed template.

The Dragon Sovereign shook his head and explained it very patiently: “For individuals who have proven the Tao, it doesn’t matter whether they are ancient or not, and whether they occupy the upper reaches of history – your human race also has a similar statement. The past and the future themselves can be Equivalent. This shows that you have indeed reached a point with wisdom. Think for yourself, since the past and the future are equivalent, who still needs to travel against time like this?”

“As for the ‘interference stance’, that is even more problematic. An immortal person, at least with a certain heart, can maintain himself for a long time. Although this stance can be changed, it is difficult to achieve in a short-term process. Wang Qi raised his hand: ”

But, Your Majesty, it doesn’t matter whether it is long-term or short-term for the former knower?”

Limited foreknowledge does not look at distance or time, but only at cause and effect.

The Dragon Emperor nodded: ”

That’s right.” “Since it involves an individual’s sermon, you should be able to foresee it early and make a layout, right?” Wang Qi said: “This can also be a long-term process. .”

– unless you feel that a finite forerunner doesn’t matter at all!

A loner like the Relief Demon King can indeed ignore all other factors and make all the reverse timing bandwidth into a “refugee radar”, but it is impossible for the Dragon Emperor and Demon Emperor to ignore “talents”.

Ah, as for His Majesty the Demon Emperor… Well, if the update of the demon clan’s prospects is enough to bring out the former knower, he might be able to survive for hundreds of thousands of years.

“But actually…it’s also very difficult to do.” The Demon Emperor shook his head, showing a wry smile: “In your words, if you want to do this, you must know the necessary and sufficient conditions for proving the past and future together. ‘, Knowing what conditions are met, those who jump out of the long river and dominate themselves can definitely prove that the past and the future belong together and become the former knower.”

“But in fact, there is no such thing.”

He was reprimanded by the human race monks. For the practice method of “ancient practice”, “I think about it” is enough.

If there is no higher pursuit, it is understandable to do so.

If the guess that “only the former knowers are intelligent creatures” is true, then “I think” can be used as the standard way of thinking for the former knowers.

The a priori sense of the fore-knower is guaranteed to be correct!

Even non-pre-knowledgeers become pre-knowledgeers, relying on “I think”.

The Great Sage of Heaven and Man is just pinching a fool’s method, and he doesn’t need to understand it. As long as he has reached a certain step, he can become a pre-knowledge-even a practitioner does not need to understand this process.

For the monkeys, this is indeed a blessing.

But for a civilization like the Immortal Dao, which caused superhuman upheaval, this is a bit…

Wang Qi thought for a moment: “But… the so-called ‘sufficient and necessary conditions’ are just the way of thinking that our human race uses to deal with normal timing, right? ? The former knower can get the answer directly?”

“But for the ‘Proving Dao’ incident, the previous knowledge can be disturbed too much.” The demon emperor said: “Return this kind of information from the future, just take it as It may not make sense to play a game with a real fore-knower.”

—Is this a different kind of “self-referential” problem? According to the theory, the first-order hyper-Turing machine can’t solve the shutdown problem satisfactorily…

Wang Qi asked back: “But if you suddenly feel that there is a huge disturbance in a non-predecessor, it means that he is about to prove the truth, right? If That kid is not on the same side as us, why don’t you just kill him in advance?”

“No, that’s not the truth.” The Dragon Emperor shook his head: “Before you became an ex-knower, the fact that you became an ex-knower is very important to other ex-knowers. It’s as if it doesn’t exist—it’s been the case to this day. I don’t know if this is the result of a game over time, or is it a limitation of the ability to know beforehand.”

Only the moment when the reverse chronological logic gate actually appears can be detected by feel.

This is what the Dragon King means.

On the other hand, those who have attained pre-knowing cannot cause visions that can be observed in the entire universe.

In fact, the breakthroughs in the two realms of “jumping out of the long river to dominate oneself” and “combining the past and the future into one” are relatively small visions. If the immortal has high enough control over his body, there will not even be any visions.

This universe is really too big.

Even if the Fore-Knowers were able to traverse the entire universe causally, their power would not be able to cause the entire universe to shake at the physical level.

In other words, the impact of the event of “Proving the Way” itself will be dispersed throughout history.

Because the moment the reverse chronological logic gate is born, the past and the future are already one. From birth to end, it can be regarded as the “same moment”.

Even if there is a “vision”, it does not only exist at one “point in time”.

But with this explanation, Wang Qi is still a little awkward.

“Doesn’t this mean that…every pre-seeker will have a status of ‘the past and the future come together’ in the future. This status has been determined, and then the process of cultivation is just to see if you can integrate into this status? ”
