The ninth hall.
"The first hall recognizes oneself, the second hall recognizes the way of the sword, and the last hall recognizes what?"
Yi Ming stepped into the Ninth Palace, and then found that it was unremarkable. The walls and pillars were no different from the previous eight palaces.
The only difference from the other eight halls is that there is a word "heart" neatly carved on the main wall of the ninth hall.
"The last three levels are all about recognizing the sword's heart, so what does it mean to write the word 'heart' alone?"
Yi Ming raised his eyebrows, and then he felt that the word "heart" suddenly became illusory.
"Um?"
"Isn't this the world of immortal heroes that I traveled through? When did it start to go the science fiction route?"
The correct content is in %六九% book'bar!
"This is……"
Yi Ming felt that he had fallen into an illusion formation, but the level of this formation was too high. With his current formation cultivation level which was only at the earth level, he could not find any flaws in this formation.
Yi Ming's mind focused, his sword heart stabilized, his conscious mind instantly became clear, and he returned immediately.
Of course Yi Ming would also be immersed in it, but because he had been exposed to this kind of philosophical thinking in his previous life, his mind was still clear.
For a moment, the whole world began to change from real to virtual.
"Simple!"
Then, the main wall with the word "heart" carved on it and the entire hall began to disappear.
Yi Ming finally stopped thinking that he was trapped in some illusion or something like that.
"What's the meaning?"
“If the Duxu Sword Sect really determined that the truth of this world is a brain in a jar, they would either keep it secret, or communicate with forces of the same level, or make up their minds to announce it widely. But the most unlikely thing is to put it on the ninth level of the Tianjian Mountain Sword Enlightenment Test and let people judge and guess!”
This kind of question, the technology tree of the previous Earth has not been climbed, and no answer has been given. Does the Duxu Sword Sect have an answer?"
"So, this is a test, a test of Ranjin Kenshin!"
After recognizing the test of the Ninth Palace, Yi Ming, who had heard of this kind of speculative theory in his previous life, did not continue to think about it or get caught up in it.
Yi Ming began to think, and the emptiness of this world became more and more real. Then Yi Ming felt more and more that the whole world was illusory, a world that did not exist at all.
All of this is nothing but a thought, an empty world created solely by consciousness.
so……
The entire hall had turned into nothingness, and then Yi Ming felt his sight being pulled away. Immediately afterwards, the entire Tianjian Mountain began to become hazy and turned into nothingness.
At least his true spirit is still thinking.
Yi Ming felt everything in front of him and the consciousness that the entire world was transmitting to him, as if he had seen the truth of the world.
In just a few breaths, Yi Ming returned to the Ninth Palace.
Then the process of the world's nihilism suddenly stopped.
"Sure enough, once the theory of reality and illusion comes out, even the most powerful genius will inevitably fall into it and be unable to extricate himself."
"The Matrix! Brain in a vat!"
The Duxu Sword Sect is worthy of being a large sect standing at the top of Bilan Continent. It has no pressure to survive and has actually begun to think about such profound philosophical issues.
At this time, Yi Ming was standing in the center of the hall.
Are there any results?
"So, what is the truth about this world?
"In that case, my swordsmanship is of course mine too!"
…
In this way, the three philosophical questions of "Who am I?" will arise.
Yi Ming had a strong feeling that all entities in this world did not exist, including himself.
Then, the whole world quickly retreated and became a real world again.
"Oh my god, what the hell?"
"sharp!"
Zhuge Liusong gritted his teeth and took a breath of cold air.
"One is materialism, the other is idealism. The two are totally incompatible!"
The more you think about this kind of philosophical theory, the deeper you will fall into it. If you have a broad imagination, you will come up with various branch theories as supplements, until you can't extricate yourself.
And when all these supports no longer exist, then the sword heart that relies on oneself and one's own understanding of the world will of course be like rootless duckweed, which will shatter at the slightest touch.
If a certain level of illusion test can reach this step, Yi Ming will say that your Duxu Sword Sect is so powerful and I admit defeat.
Then people go crazy.
So here comes the question…
"My cultivation method is mine, the true essence and secrets I have cultivated are mine, and my wives are mine too!"
"Dozens of sword techniques and sword intents are perfect, all of which are the main sword techniques!"
Tianjian Mountain, Duxu Sword Sect, Bilan Continent, Bilan Sea Nineteen Continents, Wuliang Sea...
Zhuge Liusong was also somewhat frightened, and it was obvious that he had suffered losses before. "There is no conclusion to this theory yet, but it is an excellent method to test the swordsmanship of a cultivator. It depends on whether he can stick to his own opinion and strengthen his swordsmanship."
"Even in the world of immortals and heroes, the foundation of the world's cultivation, the so-called spiritual energy, is real and has energy. Even the secret soul techniques rely on the real souls of the real cultivators. It is completely different from the world of nothingness."
Yi Ming's conscious mind began to think, getting deeper and deeper into it, but Yi Ming's true spirit and subconscious mind were divided and still very lucid.
…
"hiss!"
It was an ordinary hall with identical interior decorations and an unremarkable "heart" character on the main wall.
"Sure enough, this is a test of the very existence of Kenshin. As long as you are firm in your heart and firm in the authenticity of Kenshin's existence, then you will pass this test."
"I don't care whether this world of yours is real or imaginary, idealistic or materialistic. As the saying goes, I think, therefore I am. What I can feel is mine!"
"This is not an injury at all. If he can't recover and his brain can't process this, he will probably be useless!"
"This thing is just like religion. Without evidence, it cannot be disproven!"
"No! Impossible!"
"This is simply denying the basis of a person's existence from the root. No wonder the sword cultivators who couldn't get through were injured."
As a major sect that has existed for nearly 100,000 years and has high-level cultivators in the spiritual realm, it is a sect that practices Taoism, refines Qi, and seeks immortality. It is reasonable for it to explore the true nature of this world.
Now that someone has come up with the brain-in-a-vat hypothesis, someone should certainly continue with it.
"Is the Ninth Hall of Tianjian Mountain meant for people to recognize the true nature of this world?"
…
…
"He paid no attention to the forty-nine top-level magical skills and secrets, and discarded them like old shoes!"
"The theory of reality and illusion has troubled the Sword Sect for thousands of years, and finally formed a Saint-level sword technique and integrated it into the formation. This person was able to escape the trap so quickly and strengthen his swordsmanship!"
"Where did this genius swordsman come from? He is truly amazing!"
At this moment, Zhuge Liusong realized that Yi Ming had actually passed the test of the three gates and nine palaces of Tianjian Mountain!
