Proving Once Again That Cultivation Equals Scientific Research
Yuan Jian used immortal Immortal Qi to continuously create Divine Ability, and then disassembled the Daoist script.
Yang Ning, on the other hand, recorded all the disassembled Dao characters.
Actually, this work can also be done in the mortal realm, but the Immortal Power in the mortal realm is hard to come by, and the Dao characters constructed from non- Immortal Power cannot be disassembled.
It's a bit of a hassle, but it's not a big deal; it's just a waste of a little time.
Yang Ning also calculated that the flow of time in the Immortal Realm and the Lower Realm is actually different, with a ratio of 1:240!
One day in the celestial realm is equivalent to 240 days in the mortal realm.
Yuan Jian spent two months disassembling all three thousand Dao characters, breaking each Dao character down into 2,400 fragments, resulting in a total of 7,200,000 different types.
"Therefore, Dao script is similar to molecules, a fundamental component of the Dao. Three thousand Dao scripts represent three thousand kinds of Dao!" Yang Ning analyzed. "And the fragments of Principle that these Dao scripts break down are things even more fundamental than the Dao itself, similar to atoms."
Not only Yuan Jian was reading, but the Pangu Particle, which followed the ascended beings into the Immortal Realm, were also absorbing Immortal Qi to evolve while collecting and reading various books.
Although much knowledge in the immortal realm is no longer recorded in books, but rather in things like Jade Slip, even Jade Slip cannot prevent the Pangu Particle from reading it.
The Pangu Particle travel at the speed of light, making them extremely efficient at reading information; therefore, Yang Ning has a fairly rich understanding of the Immortal Realm.
However, he did not see any records about Dao script fragments, not even a similar description, as if the Immortal Realm did not have this concept at all.
"So, among all the cultivators throughout history, has there not been a single one who discovered that the essence of the Heavenly Immortal Law is the reconstruction of fragments of Daoist script?" Yang Ning felt it was somewhat unbelievable, but it seemed to be the truth.
This is the problem with empirical science: even though countless people have been using this experience, no one has tried to study the underlying principles behind this phenomenon.
Just as countless people can see an apple fall, but only Newton discovered universal gravitation.
"Since no one has discovered them, I will name these fragments myself!" Yang Ning said calmly. "From now on, your name will be Origin Script!"
The Origin Script is a part of the Dao text, a subset of the Three Thousand Daos.
For example, water is categorized into ice, steam, hot water, cold water, and ultracooled water; people are categorized into men, women, the elderly, children, and so on.
Upon discovering the Origin Script, Yang Ning immediately applied the knowledge to other situations.
Since Daoist texts can be broken down into Origin Script, can Origin Script be further broken down?
It should be possible, because the evolution of the Heavenly Immortal Law into the True Immortal Method is also done by tempering it with the Three Origin True Fire and then fusing it.
For example, a man's genitals can be categorized into boy, young man, middle-aged man, elderly man, loser, rich and handsome man, poor but handsome man, and poor but handsome man.
So here's the question: why can the Immortal Method transform the illusory into the real, and the false into the true? The Three Origin True Fire clearly burned away many Principle, didn't it?
If you only use the term "tall, rich, and handsome man," how can you transform from a fake to a real female CEO?
"Unless, this split follows a different logic!"
The man's genitals are not those of a young or middle-aged man, but rather horizontal, vertical, left-falling strokes, and horizontal hooks.
Or perhaps it's NANREN.
Just like how the atom is not Mondstadt, but a Rizuki.
Instead, they are protons and neutrons.
If protons and neutrons can give birth to all atoms and molecules, then the next level of writing from the Origin Script can naturally form any kind of Daoist script.
This is the foundation for making a long holiday a reality!
Therefore, the text following the Origin Script should be the Beginning Script.
The beginning of Daoist writings.
The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, and Three gives birth to all things—that Three!
So, what is two?
Above True Immortals is Golden Immortal. Since gold is immortal, Golden Immortals are also known as Immortal Golden Immortals.
So, what does immortality mean?
Earthly Immortals and Celestial Immortals can clearly live forever, coexisting with heaven and earth. So why are Golden Immortals immortal, while Earthly Immortals, Celestial Immortals, and True Immortals are not?
Is it possible that even true immortals cannot achieve immortality?
"For a True Immortal to advance to a Golden Immortal, Principle Creation needs to be generated within their body, and the method for generating the Immortal Method is to comprehend one's own Dao."
What is enlightenment?
If the essence of the Dao is the Beginning Script, then understanding the Dao means using the Beginning Script to create a new Origin Script.
Because the highest level above the Golden Immortal is the Profound Immortal, Immortal Method emphasize the profound and mysterious, the gateway to all wonders.
What is meant by "the most mysterious of all"?
Isn't it just creating a completely new Daoist script that nobody recognizes?
Therefore, the Path of the Mysterious Immortals is the Path of Creation!
Above the Mysterious Immortal is the Great Luo.
The Great Luo One transcends time and fate, controls the Principle, and embodies the Heavenly Dao.
This is called "establishing the Way," which means entrusting one's research results to the Way of Heavenly Dao and gaining Heavenly Dao recognition.
From then on, the Dao he created was inscribed into the Heavenly Dao, becoming a part of the Dao of Heavenly Dao.
But if the Great Luo Immortal has already inscribed Daoist script on the Heavenly Dao, then what level must Supreme Sage reach to be called Supreme Sage?
Yang Ning immediately projected out three thousand Dao characters, and then sorted them out according to twelve categories: Immortal, Demon, Ghost, Blood, Curse, Sword, Array, Weapon, Pill, Talisman, Buddha, and Monster.
"That's really true!"
The three thousand characters could be roughly divided into 13 parts!
There are a total of 2,996 types related to the twelve categories, with an average of more than 20 Daoist texts per category.
The remaining four Dao scripts do not belong to any of the twelve major categories. It is unknown whether they were created by the same person. If they were created by the same person, then if he creates 16 more Dao scripts, he can be promoted to a new Supreme Sage!
"So that's how it is, so that's how it is!" From Dao script to Beginning Script, and then from Beginning Script back to Dao script, Yang Ning finally understood the logic of the entire cultivation process.
Cultivating immortality is similar to conducting scientific research.
Earthly Immortals, Celestial Immortals, and True Immortals are equivalent to undergraduate, master's, and doctoral degrees, respectively. They are still in the learning stage and may have a vague sense of their future path, but have not yet decided on it.
Until I fully understood, I chose a research topic and embarked on the path of scientific research.
If you can't find it, then you're at the professor level, which is equivalent to a Xuanxian in the cultivation realm.
Further up the ranks, the professor's discovery proved to be very significant and influential, leading to his promotion to academician and Xuanxian's promotion to Daluo.
At this point, not being able to find the information means you've reached the pinnacle of scientific research.
Is anyone still up there?
Yes, there are.
That is, a deity who establishes a single path, a single discipline, and even directly alters the development of civilization and the course of history.
You may not remember who the Nobel Prize winners were in a particular year, but the names of scientific giants like Newton and Einstein will never be forgotten as long as human history continues.
This is the Supreme Sage!
Yang Ning used to use scientific research as a metaphor for cultivating immortality, but he never expected to discover that cultivating immortality really is just like doing scientific research.
The only difference is that scientific research studies the truth, while cultivation studies the Principle of Heavenly Dao. Scientific research results are presented in academic papers, while cultivation results are presented in Daoist texts.
In truth, there seems to be no real difference between truth and the Great Way!
