Fu Zhi's eyes instantly lit up with excitement.
He could not understand things like heaven, earth, moon, knots, and the like.
But now, with everything laid out before his eyes in such a straightforward manner, if he still could not understand, there would truly be no excuse for him.
"Spiritual patterns?"
"This is a spiritual array?"
Fu Zhi was shaken to the core, stunned beyond measure.
The perspective Xu Xiaoshou had shown him was too lofty!
So lofty that even if he usually looked up at it, it would remain forever beyond his reach.
"The world is a world, the Dao is the Dao, and spiritual arrays are spiritual arrays."
"Between the three, spiritual arrays merely borrow the Dao, while the Dao carries the rules, thereby completing recursive calls."
This was the philosophy of a spiritual array master.
A process of borrowing the hands of heaven and earth to achieve complete self-realization.
And Heavenly Secrets Art was entirely different.
Within the philosophy of Heavenly Secrets Art, the world was the Dao, the Dao was the array, the array was man, and man was the boundary.
All of it came down in one unbroken line.
Or rather, they were the same in essence but different in form! There was absolutely no difference, nor any need to distinguish them!
All living things and dead objects were composed of the Dao.
The Dao built the world and gave birth to humanity. The source of all things had always remained the same!
Fu Zhi could hardly believe that such a concept had come from Xu Xiaoshou's demonstration.
Yet when he saw the smiling approval in Xu Xiaoshou's eyes, Fu Zhi realized he was not overthinking it. The other man truly meant to convey this? "So, what you want to express is... Heavenly Secrets Art?"
