Chapter 2349: Entering the Space Between Existence and Non-Existence
If the previous mind realm and the illusory infinite world were the ultimate forms of the illusory world, then what has transformed now is an unprecedented form.
Zhang Qian carefully comprehended it for a long time, then he suddenly opened his eyes and said in shock, "It's incredible. After the fusion of the two virtual worlds born from different universes, there would be such a wonderful change, becoming another form, a form that is neither virtual nor real, but somewhere in between."
That’s right, the transformation that occurred after the fusion brought about changes that Zhang Qian had not expected.
Originally, the mind realm is a product of the primordial universe, and its foundation is the loopholes in the universe. However, the Xuanmeng World Cone is the sacred artifact that created the infinite universe. The blueprint of creation contained in it is also the blueprint of the infinite world.
But after they began to merge, they strangely lost the essence of the two universes and became an existence that belonged neither to the primitive universe nor to the infinite universe.
They lost all the essence of the two universes and became a strange third form.
An intermediate state between illusion and reality.
Even Zhang Qian couldn't understand this strange intermediate state. He just felt that it contained extremely profound truth. If he could comprehend the truth, he would gain unimaginable benefits.
As if a blessing had come to him, he sat cross-legged, his mind immersed in the two virtual worlds that were merging into one, and began to carefully experience this miraculous transformation.
He felt that his opportunity had come, and it was a huge opportunity.
His feeling was always correct. After his whole mind was immersed in it, a circle of wisdom light appeared behind his head, and his wisdom and understanding skyrocketed.
The transformation brought about by the fusion of the two virtual worlds originating from different universes, and the truth and principles contained therein flow in Zhang Qian's heart.
In Zhang Qian's eyes, the extremely profound rotation of Tao and principles was so profound that it could even compete with the original Taoist text.
You must know that it is the original Tao text, which is mastered by those who are transcendent from the original nothingness. It is also the supreme Tao text, containing power that transcends the universe.
However, the transformation produced by the fusion of the two different virtual worlds at this moment is actually as mysterious as the original Tao text.
This surprised Zhang Qian, and he began to comprehend it more carefully. He always felt that this comprehension might help him advance a great step forward in his understanding of the future path.
He even activated the remaining jade, and with the help of its power and mystery, began to deduce the principles and theories that emerged when the two virtual worlds merged.
After an unknown amount of time, the Heart Realm and the Creation Blueprint World in the Xuanmeng Cone had completely merged into one, forming a more mysterious virtual world.
No, it should not be called the virtual world anymore. This is a strange world between fantasy and reality. It is neither a virtual place nor a real world, but an indescribable and unspeakable state.
Zhang Qian was completely immersed in the mystery of it. He only felt that his mind had come to an indescribable wonderful world, which was explaining an incredible mystery to him.
As Zhang Qian contemplated it, this mystery gradually became clear to him. It was nothing more than the change between existence and non-existence!
The change of existence and non-existence is not unfamiliar to cultivators. Any cultivator who has comprehended the laws knows the existence of the law of reality and illusion, and also knows the strangeness of this law.
Immortals and gods who have understood the laws of reality and illusion can do many strange things, such as turning reality into illusion, or turning illusion into reality.
However, that is still the mystery of the law within the universe. At this moment, the change of existence and non-existence that Zhang Qian comprehended is the mystery outside the universe, or the true law of reality and illusion. The true mystery of the law of reality and illusion is the change of existence and non-existence, existence changes to non-existence, and non-existence changes to existence.
This is a power that transcends the Eye of Chaos and can turn illusion into reality without even requiring the origin of the world.
Before, because Zhang Qian had comprehended the secret of the Eye of Chaos, he was able to use the power of Taoism to evolve countless Eyes of Chaos, and then rely on the power of the Eye of Chaos to obtain the endless origin of the world.
He can use the origin of the world to create all things and spirits, and even refine innate treasures.
However, this is still not a true change of existence or non-existence. It still needs to be based on the origin of the world. Without sufficient origin of the world, no matter how capable Zhang Qian is, he cannot create an innate treasure out of thin air.
However, the mystery of the transformation that occurred when the two virtual worlds merged at this moment brought him true creation out of nothing!
The new world created after the fusion is between illusion and reality, a strange intermediate state. It is this strange intermediate state that allows Zhang Qian to see the essence of illusion and reality.
It was as if one was looking down at the secrets of illusion and reality from another higher perspective; everything was in full view, without any concealment.
"Everything is the result of the transformation of existence and non-existence. Even the birth of the great universe is like this. From the birth of a blade of grass to the birth of the universe, everything is the result of the transformation of existence and non-existence!"
Zhang Qian suddenly spoke out, as if he had some profound understanding.
His gaze looked through the hole in the universe and towards the primordial nothingness outside the hole.
It is the ultimate place of nothingness, but that place, which is originally a true nothingness, can give birth to countless large universes, and even allow transcendent people to practice in it.
The process of the birth of the universe from the primordial nothingness is the ultimate manifestation of the change of existence and non-existence. Zhang Qian feels that if he can thoroughly understand the change of existence and non-existence, then he can create a real universe in a single thought!
And this is the ultimate goal of practice, the real pinnacle!
"It's difficult. This time, by chance, the virtual worlds belonging to the two universes merged into one, allowing me to enter the door of the transformation of existence and non-existence. I just touched the door. If you want to understand the transformation of existence and non-existence, it is more difficult than a mortal trying to understand the three thousand laws from scratch."
Zhang Qian sighed, and at the same time he truly understood why there were differences in strength among those transcendents. They were all transcendents, beings that were above the universe, and had the original Dao texts in their hands, so why were some transcendents so powerful while others seemed so weak?
Everything is determined by the extent to which the transcendent has comprehended the changes of existence and non-existence. The deeper the comprehension of the changes of existence and non-existence, the stronger the strength will be.
Transcendence does not mean the end of practice. All those who transcend are trying to comprehend the changes of existence and non-existence, hoping that one day they will be able to comprehend all the mysteries of the changes of existence and non-existence, and thus reach the top of the original nothingness and become an existence that creates the universe with a thought.
"This time is indeed my great opportunity. With my Great Perfection in the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian realm, I have understood in advance all the things that the Transcendents have cultivated and comprehended. Just by touching the door to the transformation of existence and non-existence, I have undergone earth-shaking changes."
After the two virtual worlds merged, Zhang Qian's comprehension also ended. In fact, his comprehension time was very short.
Being able to touch the door to the change of existence and non-existence, and to reach the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, and to touch the mystery of the change of existence and non-existence that only transcendent people can comprehend, all thanks to the magical broken jade.
If it weren't for the mysterious power of the broken jade, Zhang Qian would never have been able to touch the door to the transformation of existence and non-existence.
