Record

The Illusionary Reality Domain is used by Spiritual Way Great Power to filter out things that even they themselves could not have imagined. As long as your imagination surpasses that of the powerful spiritual beings, you will pass the screening and be able to personally meet a second-rank being.

The birth of this place is due to the discovery of the Heavenly Demon Heavenly Demonic Dao Charm by Spiritual Way Great Power, who combined it with their own spiritual characteristics.

The Heavenly Demonic Dao Charm can truly create everything in this world.

The spiritual path, on the other hand, can describe all things as information flows. The combination of the two can achieve "what you think, you get"—anything you can imagine.

Therefore, this is a rare opportunity for the spiritual path.

As long as someone can imagine 'things that do not exist in this world,' the boundaries of reality can be expanded.

And, incredibly, someone actually did it?!

Li Qi was shocked.

He could accept that True Knowledge Dao Charm, he himself came from the third distant Outer Dao, and even the Heavenly Demon believed that he was not the existence in his dream.

But is there anyone who can do that?

How did you do that?

This is an old problem. The Heavenly Demon once tempted Li Qi to think in that direction.

The question is, can a person imagine things that don't exist? (See Chapter 333 for details)

At that time, Li Qi's answer was: No.

Suppose a person has a very powerful imagination and actually imagines something that does not exist, without any existing things or concepts. Then no matter how hard he tries, he cannot describe this thing in reality unless he uses his imagination to establish an independent and highly autonomous information transmission mechanism to describe this thing separately.

However, because he set up this mechanism to describe it, others could not understand it. Since it had nothing to do with any concept in reality, he could not describe it in a metaphorical way. Others could not even understand this mechanism, so he still could not describe it perfectly, so this thing could never be born in reality.

No language, picture, or even mental transmission or memory sharing can facilitate communication.

So, even if you can imagine it, it's still a fire-breathing dragon in the basement. If you can't describe it or make it happen, it's the same as not having thought of it at all.

However, at this moment, Lingdao gave a different answer.

Yes, that's possible.

As long as someone can imagine something that doesn't exist, then the spiritual path can bring it to reality.

Therefore, things that do not exist also exist.

The line between reality and imagination is blurred here.

The appearance of a true 'wish-fulfilling' wish-granting machine with absolutely no side effects is enough to qualify it as a top-tier opportunity.

But... there's a problem.

"If someone has managed to imagine something that doesn't exist in this world... then you should have already found what you're looking for, so why are you still maintaining the Illusionary Reality Domain?" Li Qi asked, voicing his question.

This is strange. If someone has completed it, then the opportunity for first-class achievement should also have been completed.

"Hmm... it's hard to explain, see for yourself." The powerful spiritual expert said, then guided Li Qi's perspective into the information stream.

This direct immersion perspective was quite unusual for Li Qi, because he usually analyzed the information first and then read it, rather than directly immersing himself in it.

That's too dangerous.

But with the help of a second-grade Spirit Dao cultivator, things were much safer, and Li Qi was able to immerse himself in the information stream to see what was inside.

He didn't know what he was getting into until he saw it, and what he saw gave Li Qi a real fright.

Inside, there are five people who are 'sleeping'.

They are people who believe in things that don't exist.

It was said to be a deep sleep because they were sealed away, but he was not asleep; instead, he was immersed in an illusion.

That is... the Desire Realm.

He-Who-Transforms-Himself-at-Will Heaven!

The Illusionary Reality Domain can actually lead directly to the Desire Realm!

Li Qi was startled and quickly looked around—

But he immediately realized that he was already under the watchful eye of the Witch God, and the Heavenly Demon probably wouldn't be thinking of interfering with him at this moment. Right now, he needed to get used to 'safety'.

So he forced himself to relax and observe those who were 'sleeping'.

Through the information stream, Li Qi could directly see what they were doing.

These people's spirits operate in the Desire Realm, wielding powerful Technique Method to accomplish their strategies, whether it be to enjoy pleasure, transform the world, or pursue the Tao within the Desire Realm; each person has their own ideas.

However, they have a rather peculiar characteristic: they all maintain a certain degree of 'wish fulfillment'.

This is their golden touch, the power granted by a second-rank expert.

These people can harness this power and then innovate.

Each and every one of these innovations, under those completely different rules, became a strange flow of information, which was placed before this second-rank Spirit Daoist.

Raise these people, and then let them innovate and experiment.

Lingdao... isn't a good person.

"So... their innovation wasn't enough? Would you say I... dodged a bullet?" Li Qi wiped his sweat and smiled somewhat reluctantly.

These people made minor innovations in reality, successfully passed the selection, and the 'reward' they received was to be directly sealed away, allowing them to continue to unleash their creativity in the Desire Realm.

"Why are you making it sound like I'm forcing them? They're doing it voluntarily. To them, there's no difference between the Desire Realm and the Real World. There, they can do whatever they want without restraint. All they need to do is complete the innovation," the second-rank Spirit Daoist said.

As he said this, a scene popped into Li Qi's mind.

A person was killed by a dump truck. After death, a goddess appeared and gave you a cheat code, allowing you to travel to another world. You can use your cheat code to do whatever you want in this new world.

This...

Li Qi felt that this was cruel, but for ordinary people, it might be a kind of reward?

"This is the reward, of course, it's a reward you can't refuse. As for you... don't worry, you have powerful backers, I wouldn't dare touch you," the second-rank Spirit Dao cultivator chuckled.

These words sent a chill down Li Qi's spine.

Lingdao is really not a good person. Unlike the Dao Lineage of Human Path and Shaman Path, which have clear views on good and evil, Lingdao seems to completely disregard these.

Words like human rights, freedom, kindness, justice, and righteousness are simply not applicable to them. They only have their own goals to pursue, and they don't care what they do for them.

Of course, these comments clearly fell into the other party's eyes.

"Indeed, your summary is very good. That's why I brought you in. Although your Daoist aura isn't the kind we need, it's still something that doesn't exist in this world. Let's make a good connection; we might need it in the future," the second-rank Spirit Daoist said with a smile.

"I am deeply grateful for your kindness, senior. It is only right that I do so." Li Qi naturally dared not refuse a second-rank official and immediately agreed.

"That's good. By the way, you started thinking about these things right away, which made me forget the important matter. After all, you brought something that doesn't exist in this world. Could you let me record it? As payment, I will stabilize your current state." The second-grade Spirit Daoist said.

Upon hearing this, Li Qi's heart skipped a beat, and even his soul froze for a moment.

The current state...

In other words, our information processing capabilities have increased a million times over at this moment!

However, Li Qi immediately said, "No need... I can do it myself, so there's no need to trouble you, senior."

"Okay, then I won't force you." The other person nodded frankly.

Li Qi found that communicating with the other party was very efficient and smooth.

Everything is laid out in the open, everything can be discussed, there is no pretense, no hidden meanings, and no traps like those of the Heavenly Demon.

It was actually quite... comfortable?

"In that case, make a wish as payment for the sample you left behind," the other party said casually.

"Senior, if I don't agree to keep the file..." Li Qi asked tentatively.

"You have no choice," the other person interrupted Li Qi directly.

This made Li Qi smile wryly.

Just as I expected.

Being frank and straightforward, and paying someone, doesn't mean the other person is a good person.

However, it's already quite good. For Li Qi, at least he has someone protecting him and doesn't need to worry about anything, unlike those people below who are forcibly confined here.

"Then... what I want as compensation is knowledge. Senior, could you tell me about the knowledge of the demonic path and the spiritual path? Also, if there are any results in your research on true knowledge, I would like a copy as well," Li Qi asked.

"Sure, do you want to have it implanted in your brain, or do you want to see it for yourself? Or do you simply want Divine Will Inheritance?" the other end asked.

"I'll just read it myself, but I would appreciate it if you could lend me some Literary Qi," Li Qi replied immediately.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qi found that there was a stream of Literary Qi in his hand, which seemed to contain countless pieces of information.

"Then I'll take it myself." After saying that, the second-level Spirit Dao cultivator reached out and began to sample Li Qi's True Knowledge Dao Charm.

Li Qi did not hide anything and directly revealed his true knowledge.

There's no need. If this expert can uncover any clues about the true knowledge, he can simply reap the benefits.

There was nothing unusual about the sampling; True Knowledge Dao Charm didn't even react, and the second-rank expert had already finished.

"No one manipulated your causal path, no one traced your future, but even so, you still came here, which shows that we are indeed destined. Your Daoist aura naturally endowed you with the perception of spiritual information. Alas... it's a pity that it was taken by the Shaman Path, otherwise you would be quite good at cultivating the spiritual path. Take the opportunity to go to the Arctic, maybe you will change your mind." The second-rank said.

Li Qi did not respond.

Li Qi couldn't really accept Ling Dao's indifferent attitude towards life. Li Qi wouldn't go fishing for fish all over the universe and then filter them out to use as a monkey typewriter.

So he changed the subject. "Now that the matter is settled, I'll take my leave..."

"Okay, go slowly. By the way, the matter of the Illusionary Reality Domain must not be leaked, otherwise no one will come," the other party reminded.

"I understand, sir." Li Qi nodded, then exited the world of information flow.

His pure spirit once again merged with matter.

At this moment, Li Qi suddenly came to life.

He suddenly realized that in a state of pure information flow, he was... unusually calm, with a feeling of 'ignoring everything', which was the process of absolute rationality gradually eroding his thoughts.

Absolute rationality, rationality that transcends human nature...

Is this a characteristic of pure thought?

He's already realized what's going on.

The spiritual path reveres absolute rationality, even supreme rationality.

However, the answer to this question lies in the Literary Qi.

Li Qi glanced at the time and realized that he had only been inside for a few Chen, so he had plenty of time. He couldn't wait to open the Literary Qi and begin to absorb the information within, which was about the spiritual path.

Such matters are usually placed in the general outline. As a seasoned bookworm, Li Qi quickly found the corresponding record and began reading it immediately.

Just as he had guessed.

The spiritual path reveres absolute rationality and despises the carnal desires brought about by the physical body.

Some people are obsessed with low-end pursuits because their spirit and reason are not pure enough. The spiritual existence in their souls, that is, human reason, is entangled by the material existence of their bodies, that is, physical desires. This interferes with their perception of the concept of spiritual beauty.

Therefore, they cannot understand the true beauty of the spirit, the beauty of pure information.

Therefore, such people are vulgar and lowly, despised by the spiritual path; they possess only base tastes.

People with truly sophisticated tastes will inevitably believe that spiritual existence is superior to material existence, because material things are mortal, while spiritual ideas, like mathematics, are eternal and immortal.

Tangible things in reality are always merely a part of and an imitation of pure spirit.

This is also the source of 'spirit'.

The word "spirit" itself refers to 'spirit'.

The spirit is the most intelligent of all things.

But... Li Qi wasn't used to it.

"Well... it's better if there's a bit of materialism mixed in." Li Qi shook his head.

Li Qi has already experienced pure rationality and supreme spirit.

Admittedly, this is important, but lust is also indispensable. This lust includes demonic thoughts and all kinds of desires brought about by the physical body, such as love, hate, and passion.

But it is with these things that it feels like we are alive.

Life is born from matter and sublimates into spirit, just like lotus root and lotus flower. If there is only lotus flower, Li Qi feels that it is not even worthy of being called alive.

However, Lingdao must have his own opinion, it's just that Li Qi doesn't agree with it.

However, from this perspective, the reason why the spiritual path rarely produces disputes is probably due to absolute rationality.

Thinking about all this, Li Qi put away the Literary Qi.

Then, he took a few deep breaths and carefully walked out of the interior of the Illusionary Reality Domain.

True Knowledge Dao Charm instantly shrank back to its normal form, and the Death Demon Dao Charm was also brought out by him.

Li Qi stumbled and spun around in the void several times.

I feel so empty...

It has a million times the information processing capacity inside, and I'm not used to it yet.
